Fairy Tail: Strongest Creature

Ikaruga's face became serious; this man was a real monster. His body was unbelievably strong and terrifying.

There seemed no way to break through this monster's defense with a sword slash.

Just as Ikaruga was thinking this, Su Yan was ready to continue.

"Om---!"

A surge of Conqueror's Haki formed in front of Su Yan, shaping a sword of pure will, which shot toward Ikaruga.

Ikaruga quickly drew her sword and slashed at this Haki-formed blade when she saw it.

"!!!"

Her own sword and Su Yan's Haki sword collided, and Ikaruga's expression changed abruptly. She hurriedly increased her strength, scattering the Haki sword. The ground beneath her feet also cracked.

"Good! So what?"

"La la la!"

Again, Conqueror's Haki took form, and multiple Haki swords appeared before Su Yan.

Ikaruga's pupils dilated, and her face became very grave. She felt that her life was in danger.

The single Haki sword just now had shown her Su Yan's attacking power. Faced with so many of them, the threat was even more terrifying.

Su Yan waved his hand casually, "Porphyrin--!!"

These Conqueror's Haki swords flew toward Ikaruga.

"No Moon Flow · Yasha Flashing Sky!"

Ikaruga drew her sword and attacked quickly.

"Boom boom----!"

The ground beneath Ikaruga's feet continued shattering, her body kept retreating, and she kept shattering Su Yan's Haki swords. Black and red lightning danced as the walls around them cracked under the collision of Haki and magical power.

After a while, Ikaruga finally parried all of Su Yan's attacks. She was now panting slightly, and the hand holding her sword trembled.

Suddenly, applause sounded: "Clap clap clap!"

Ikaruga looked up and saw Su Yan applauding. Her face turned slightly ugly: "Is Master Su Yan looking down on this little girl?"

Su Yan shook his head and smiled. "Of course not. I'm genuinely impressed by your sword skills."

Ikaruga's swordsmanship was excellent, perhaps even comparable to Erza's. Seeing her skill, Su Yan couldn't help applauding.

"Lord Su Yan, do you think you've already won?"

Ikaruga didn't feel any joy from Su Yan's praise. To her, his applause was condescending humiliation.

"Of course, your sword skills are strong, but your overall power is too weak. If your strength and magic were ten times greater, you'd be a good opponent for me."

Hearing this, Ikaruga's face sank. Ten times stronger? How humiliating.

"The battle isn't over yet. Su Yan, don't draw conclusions so easily. You've finished your attack; now it's my turn."

As Ikaruga spoke, the clogs under her feet tapped the ground, and she rushed at Su Yan. The sword in her hand aimed straight for Su Yan's eye.

No matter how strong someone's body was, there were always weak points—like the eyes, ears, or, for a man, certain lower parts. As a member of an assassination guild, Ikaruga knew this well. She scoffed at the rumor of Su Yan's immortality.

"Ha!"

Su Yan raised a single finger and firmly blocked the tip of Ikaruga's sword.

Seeing that this strike failed, Ikaruga immediately continued, targeting every vulnerable area of the human body. Yet Su Yan blocked it all with just one finger.

"Amazing!!" Lucy's eyes widened. Both this Ikaruga woman and Su Yan were too strong.

At this moment, Su Yan's fingertip glowed slightly with purple light. He then pressed it against the tip of Ikaruga's sword.

Ikaruga suddenly felt a terrifying force, as if she had stabbed into a rushing locomotive.

"Ughhhhh!!"

Ikaruga's body flew back.

"Boom--!!!"

She slammed into a wall, shattering it.

"What was that?!" Lucy asked hurriedly.

Su Yan smiled and explained, "Just a simple technique, Armament Haki - Emission."

Armament Haki techniques can be roughly divided into three types: Hardening, Emission, and Internal Destruction. Hardening is the most common and practical, greatly enhancing defense and allowing attacks on intangible entities. Emission increases offensive power, while Internal Destruction allows attacking at a distance and even damaging internal organs—the pinnacle of Armament Haki usage.

In Su Yan's eyes, Armament Haki was like combining external and internal martial arts. Meanwhile, Conqueror's Haki was akin to spiritual power. Both had their strengths.

Su Yan looked at Ikaruga. "Do you have anything else up your sleeve? If not, I'll end this."

"I don't believe it! I can't believe you can't be killed!"

Ikaruga stood up again and rushed at Su Yan.

"Die!! No Moon Flow Garuda Flame!!"

Her sword seemed to ignite with flame, sending a violent flaming slash at Su Yan.

"Boom--!!"

Su Yan's body was knocked back by the flame slash, crashing into the wall and leaving a large hole.

"Su Yan!!" Lucy cried out worriedly.

Su Yan stood up from the flames: "Flames? Natsu would love these."

He released a surge of Haki that blew the flames away from his body.

"No, it's impossible! How can you be unharmed by my strike?!"

Ikaruga shouted in disbelief upon seeing Su Yan unscathed.

Su Yan smiled and said, "No, it did hurt me…a little."
