Blow after pulse pounding blow shook the icy arena to the very core as the Keijijo Kaze ruthlessly pursued his foe. Each time his fist impacted the target, he could feel a tightly interlaced molecular force intercepting. Acute deduction revealed that she possessed some method of shielding. Before he could truly damage her he'd need to bypass this defense as well. This revelation compelled him to continue along the current course of action, despite the fact that it was becoming less and less effective as her maneuverability was proved of the upper echelon.
Crystalline specks of ice flew in every direction as his fists smashed through the makeshift barriers. A crescendo of shattering shards sang throughout the cavern and despite the high amounts of energy being placed into each attack, Milo hadn't even managed to break a sweat. Approaching at a convex angle to ensure little time for a counter attack Milo was surprised when his visual prowess was bombarded by a luminescent lemony hue derived from her weapon. As the glow dissipated slightly, Milo understood exactly what it represented. The yellow on the blade of her rapier had a direct correlation with the temporally manipulated speed she had ascertained. To one without heaven's eyes, this entire act would have gone unnoticed. Milo, fully aware of what the woman was doing, impeded his rush as a monumental block of ice raced towards him. Speed would have allowed him to evade the rather large object, but he could not afford to do so. The trajectory of the glacier would cause it to impact the core of the planet, prematurely ending the clone's action in said area. Unwilling to forgo his well concocted scheme Milo positioned his hands in front of himself as the glacier reached close proximity.
Muscles flexed and cries of agony were elicited as Milo attempted to cease travel of the large object to no avail. His body crashed through a series of the caverns walls and only through the use of heavy chi enhancements was his physical body allowed to endure such damage. Slowly but surely the large glacier was being pulled to a stop, and this was when it seemed that his opponent sought to end him. A myriad of frost covered stalagmites had been ripped from the ceiling of the caverns and launched towards the Tranquil at deadly speeds. As the interior of the stalagmites were composed of rock, they maintained form as they ripped through the glacier and raced towards Milo. Overworked from his attempt to stop the glacier, and overwhelmed by the sheer number of stalagmites and their close proximity to him, the Keijijo Kaze was forced to make use of one of Heaven's Eyes most powerful techniques.
"COMMAND!" Milo yelled, throwing the hands of his now battered form forward with emphasis. A mystical, invisible force of repulsion manifested itself, turning the stalagmites back in the opposite direction, causing them to clash with the oncoming force and cancelling out the bombardment entirely. His chest heaved as he breathed heavily, basking in the success of his erratic, evasive maneuver and cursing himself for being so careless. From the outside looking in, she'd bested him. His clothing was tattered, lacerations littered the majority of his body, while his opponent remained pretty and unharmed. As much as it angered him to acknowledge this, he knew that here is where he would have to change the tide of the battle, or be lost to the torrential terror of the storm.
Vested deep within a newly created chasm, his opponent seemingly awaited Milo's arrival. From high above his peerless opticals perceived what seemed to be a pool of frozen spikes soliciting the area. If his opponent believed him to be incapable of flight and other various means of transition from one location to the next, then she wasn't taking the engagement serious enough. The thought of being underestimated enraged the Bravehart, and with unmitigated speed he entered the chasm, pulling to a stop and hovering directly in front of her, arms folded to hide the fact that his wounds forced him to clutch his side with a pressure to mildly mitigate the pain. Eye contact was initiated as he attempted to invade her psyche and step beyond the physical world through the use of both heaven's eyes and eikyo, a Keijijo technique directly connected to manipulations of the mind. If successful, Milo would attempt to render her ability to access her forms impossible by erecting a mental block. Also he would attempt to gain definitive knowledge of each form and its strengths, in case she possessed unknown mental fortitude.
Regardless of the outcome, Milo knew that a mental victory was not assured, and proceeded to use another of his ocular techniques. Without warning, the sea of frozen spikes would be doused in the energy eating white flame of hatred as he sought to annihilate his foe outright. Analysis of possible escape routes caused him to encase the entire area in the flames much like she did the with the ice. Thusly, a great sacrifice would have to be made on her end if she wanted to escape the rather confined space he'd created, as the flames could not be extinguished by normal means. With the stage set Milo smiled. The moment his grin reached full expansion his form was enveloped by an illuminate electric vermillion aura that glowed intensely. "Hope you didn't think you were the only one with another form." Milo calmly stated, basking in the newfound power that came with the flash cloak.
Due to the time his clone spent absorbing energy from the planet's core, the damage that his previous opponent did to the energy gathering abilities necessary to activate the flash cloak had been undone. With the disharmonious energy replaced by the foreign energy of the core, Milo's flash cloak returned with an unprecedented level of power.Cocking his arm slowly Milo let loose a punch that shook that entire planet, moving at 1% the speed of light seven kilotons of raw energy would be sent in the woman's direction and and spread throughout the small area, contained only by the fiery white flames that covered the walls.
Meanwhile, the clone simply watched as the core began to destabilize from insufficient power supply. The introduction of the disharmonious energy that had removed Milo's access to the flash cloak had created something akin to the thermonuclear reactions known to the core of a star. The planet was set to explode in five minutes time, and just as Milo had planned, his opponent would be unaware of this. The only job that remained was to ensure that she was at a great disadvantage when the explosion occurred, as his survival was almost guaranteed by a singular ability. The tide had been turned.
