Izou and Fenrir just glared at each other for a few moments, sizing each other up waiting for their opponent to make the first move and the audience just watched.
Audience
Not a single eye was wavering from this fight, neither of them wanted to miss this fight.
The presence from both of these fighters made them want to watch this to the end.
Serafall: This is so nerve racking.
It was nice to see her son again but he looked completely different.
And from what she had heard from Sun Wukong, her son learned senjutsu.
How?! and does he know how dangerous that is?!
The malice in the supernatural world can corrupt him and make him into psychopath.
But then again....he was already a bloodthirsty individual anyway.
Milltelt: So this is what Izou's been doing? I can feel his power from right here.
Morgiana: So this is the power of sage mode? Incredible.
Kagura: And to think he learned this so fast.
With Rimuru and ??
Rimuru watched the two size each other up and she saw the gaze of Izou.
That calm, cool and collected gaze as if he was wasn't worried about fighting a being in the top ten list.
He knew he could win this. And losing was not in his mind.
Perhaps she should call in that favor that he owes her. She would like to see him again.
But for now....she just has to see what Izou can do now.
His blood demon form was a terror to behold with an aura surrounding him that made you feel like you were going to die but this sage mode that he has now....
Was just pure dominance and made the weak willed pass out.
Now it's time for these two to fight.
Back to Izou and Fenrir
Izou after analyzing his opponent got into a stance that looked exactly like....
Izou: Gear Second.
With steam flowing off of him, and waiting for Fenrir to make his move.
Izou: Gomu Gomu no....
Fenrir, who wanted to end this man before him charged at him with his maw open to eat his prey....
Izou: Jetto Pistoru!!
An insanely fast punch sent the giant wolf into a mountain, shocking most in the audience.
Izou looked at his hand, impressed by how his strength and speed had increased this much.
Izou: (Not bad.)
He teleported above Fenrir to land an overhead strike sending him straight into the ground, making some ki blasts he rained down ki blasts onto the god slayer causing a good amount of damage to Fenrir.
He jumped in the air and stretched his limbs which also gained a shiny black material on his hands.
Izou: Busō Kōka: Gomu Gomu no Jetto Gatoringu!!
Just like the first variation of this attack it was extremely fast but this time it had armament haki hitting Fenrir in the kidneys.
But Fenrir has enough and with a loud howl he stopped the onslaught and charged an energy blast in his mouth and shot it towards Izou, but Izou was not worried and only looked at the oncoming blast with what seemed like a bored look and blocked the ball of energy with one hand then he threw it into the sky.
Izou teleported above Fenrir again to land another attack on him...
Izou: Gomu Gomu No Twin Jetto Pistoru!!
Two seriously fast hands struck Fenrir in the gut breaking a few of the god slayers bones.
Izou: I'm not done yet.
He then ignited his arms with fire and glared at fenrir downed form.
Izou: Gomu Gomu No Reddo Hōku Gatoringu!!
And after he said this, the onslaught began once again on Fenrir making him howl in pain again.
Izou: Gomu Gomu No Jetto Yari!!
His last attack made a giant crater which Fenrir was embedded in.
After that series of hits Izou just looked at the crater where Fenrir was located.
He made summoned his throne and waited for him to get back up.
Izou: (Don't tell me that's all you have Fenrir.)
He still has other things he wants to use in this fight.
But with how this fight is going, he won't be able to.
With the Audience
They couldn't believe what they were seeing.
Izou was just destroying Fenrir, and he doesnt even look tired.
Just how strong has he become?
And their so called "Great King" had antagonized this beast before them?
What was he thinking?
This devil was just like Lucifer, Beezlebub, And Leviathan.
Or perhaps he could even go above him.
But while he could be just like Lady Leviathan, Lord Lucifer, Lord Beezlebub he was still nowhere near them.
And now the satans have started to train once again.
That scared them, but the lne thing that scared them even more was that Serafall was training again.
Even more so after that display of ruthlessness the ice demon displayed.
Why? They do not know but one things for certain now that Lady Leviathan was acting like the ice demon again things won't be as easy as it once was.
But one things for certain though, Zekram was right.
He's pushing Serafall to her limit when it comes to mental strength but there is a lot downside to this.
She's taking it out on them!! And they know she do again with a smile in her face.
Even though she can't help Izou because of the ultimatum.
But that doesn't mean she can't stop their plans from coming into fruition.
But they won't give up, how long will it take for her to snap for good?
They'll just have to wait and see but judging how she reacted moments ago they had a feeling it will happen soon.
Maybe not today or tomorrow but it will happen someday.
They just hope Zekram knows what he's doing.
He's been depressed since his son died in front of him so his project had been stalled for the time being.
They sure hope that project can kill Izou because from what they're seeing, it won't be enough, not by a long shot.
With Rimuru?? and ??
Rimuru??: Wow....
She knew he was going to be stronger than before but this was something else.
She began to wonder that if he even had a limit when It comes to his potential.
The thought of his potential being limitless made her blush, she definitely made the right decision with him being her interest.
Whilst thinking about all this she received a message about one of her subordinates.
Rimuru??: (So she finally found her sword.)
The man beside her also received a message about [REDACTED] nearly being let out of his prison.
??: (Excellent.)
Rimuru??: (Now show me more Izou. I know you have so much more to show me)
But something crossed her mind....
Rimuru??: (Wait, if he can enlarge any part of his body does that mean that he can....)
With Izou and Fenrir
Izou: Finally your getting up. I was certain you quit on me.
Fenrir, after healing up glared at the devil in front of him.
Where did he get this kind of strength?!
This was supposed to an easy fight!! So why was he struggling to even hit this man or even see him?
Izou brings out Enma, Shusui and Wado Ichimonji.
Swords that he received from Amaterasu in which he was thankful for had two in hand and one in his mouth. He jumped in front of Fenrir....
Izou: Santoryu: Oni Giri!!
Three-way simultaneous slashing attack. Izou crosses his two swords across his chest and places the blade in his mouth horizontally behind Fenrir. Izou then approaches the target at a high speed and cuts through the giant wolf's skin by swinging the swords across his chest.
Izou: (His skin is tough, guess I'll use it.)
With his advanced armament haki or what he likes to call it ryuo which the colors were red and yellow wrapped around his three blades he began his attack once more...
Izou: Santoryu: Kokujo: O Tatsumaki!!
He spins to create a dragon-like tornado that both slashes and blows away the targets, but the attack keeps going like an actual whirlwind and cuts up Fenrir who got caught in it which also had ryou in it which damaged the inside of Fenrir's body.
Izou: How disappointing. I expected better from someone in the top ten.
He heard howls coming from behind him. It would seem new opponents have arrived but he didn't have time for them.
Sköll and Hati have arrived, to help their father in beating Izou.
Izou puts his three swords on his waist, looking right at the offspring of Fenrir.
Izou: Gomu Gomu no Gurizurī Magunamu!!
Izou gets distance away from his opponent and activates Gear Third on both his arms simultaneously. He then runs towards the target with both his arms still static behind him before leaping in the air. While flying toward the enemy at a great speed he implements Busoshoku Haki into his arms, turning them black. He retracts his arms, and launches his attack with a great destructive power, sending both Sköll and hati flying into a mountain.
Izou appeared above them to land....
Izou: Gomu Gomu no Erefanto Gatoringu!!
After enlarging and imbuing both his arms with Busoshoku Haki in a similar manner as Gomu Gomu no Elephant Gun, Izou performs his Gomu Gomu no Gatling, which, with the heavily enforced arms, causes massive damage. Since the bulk of the air sits in his forearms and fists and not in his upper arms, it allows him to punch and pull back rapidly.
And this the light in Sköll eyes faded signaling that he has perished.
After seeIng his brother die in front of his eyes Hati was consumed by rage then he charged at Izou but as he was about to attack him....
Just like that Izou dominated Hati's will and then...
Izou: Ittoryu: Shishi Sonson!!
And just like that, He was cut in two.
Finally after a few minutes Fenrir got back up but saw something horrifying.
His sons were dead!! By this Beast!!
An angry howl mixed with despair can be heard across the battlefield.
Izou: Your next, Fenrir.
Taking his three swords yet again he jumped at Fenrir with haki imbued blades....
Izou: Santoryu Ougi!!
Izou: Ichidai Sanzen Daisen Sekai!!
And then Izou cut through fenrir!!
It was over.
Izou sheathed his blades and looked at the corpses of the three wolves.
Izou: Thank you Fenrir. Because of this I now know how stronger I've become.
Audience
He....really...
Serafall: He just...killed Fenrir....
He just killed someone in the top ten and looked like he didn't even break a sweat!!
Milltelt: Just what type of training did he do?
Morgiana who was just as shocked as Milltelt answers...
Morgiana: I don't know, but one things for certain.
Milltelt/Morgiana: (He's most likely going to teach us that as well.)
Suddenly the doors open to reveal the man of the hour.
He began walking toward them while still in his sage mode and telepathically says...
Izou: (You three okay?)
They would nod their heads but Izou caught on to something....
Izou: (Both of you have four broken ribs.)
He told them mentally to go to the hospital but as much as they didn't want to go they eventually relented.
After that happened he looked around and his landed on Serafall.
What was he gonna say to her?
Izou: So you wanted to give them rewards from back then is that right?
Serafall nods her head and Izou then goes on to say...
Izou: I see....
Serafall: Do you know how dangerous it is to use senjutsu?
Izou: I'm well aware of the risks it has.
If he knew the risks of using senjutsu then...
Serafall: If you knew that, then why-?
Izou: Because I wanted to. That's all.
Well what should she have expected, her son was someone who did whatever the hell he wanted, so it shouldn't be all that surprising.
Serafall goes in for a hug in which he didn't stop.
She can have this moment, after seeing her mental state, she really needed this.
With Rimuru?? And ??
Rimuru??: (He cut Fenrir in half without breaking a sweat, and he's only getting stronger.)
His work ethic was legendary and one thing she loves is that what he doesn't know he learns.
That sets him above most supernatural beings in her opinion.
But that new look he has, the new power he has, it was simply-
Lucius: My lady?
And this motherfucker....
Rimuru??: What is it?
Lucius gulped rather loudly after hearing the venomous tone in her voice and says...
Lucius: One of our former allies has....
She just stared at him with her yellow eyes still waiting for him to continue....
Rimuru??: Spit it out. Your wasting my time.
Lucius: Yuusei.
He was the one who supplied her with magic items.
Rimuru??: Anything else?
Lucius: He sold the one thing you needed to free [Redacted] from his prison.
Boom!!
Rimuru: So you mean tell me that boy sold the one thing I needed to free a good friend of mine and I'm only hearing about this now?
The room was being suffocated by her magical pressure.
Rimuru??: He has some nerve. Lucius?
Lucius: Yes my lady?
Rimuru??: You stay here. It seems I have to remind that fool why he's still breathing.
But that will change. Very, very soon.
Few hours later

Ajuka: No, the stone hasn't told us yet.
Gabriel: We'll just have to wait and see.
The doors flung open to reveal a man...
Ajuka: I think we found the person who will replace Fenrir.
Sirzehcs: Yeah....it would only be fitting for him to be on here.
