"Ding ding dang dang... Pang pang pang!"
A dense rain of bullets struck the faintly visible white exoskeleton, erupting in a series of sparks and ear-piercing impacts.
Though these conventional rounds couldn't penetrate White Mask's sturdy armor, the accompanying kinetic force forcefully acted upon Shadow Scorpion and the Fortress, resembling relentless heavy punches, momentarily halting their movements.
This was the precious moment!
"PONG——!!!"
An explosion at extremely close range, deafening sound waves.
The scorching flames rolled and expanded, the shockwave like an invisible giant hammer pounding outward, the ground's gravel and dust violently lifted and scattered.
The Fortress bore the brunt, emitting a low, muffled roar, the thick armor plates on its arm making "ka-cha ka-cha" mechanical sounds, rapidly transforming and merging like a living creature, in the blink of an eye forming a massive blue shield over two meters high.
