Joker's Reversal had completely undone the catastrophic damage from the clash between Singularity and Anti-Magic Singularity. The landscape, once shattered and broken, was restored to its original state as if nothing had happened. Joker and Kaipo stood face to face once more, the tension between them palpable.17Please respect copyright.PENANA672p0yqBaV
Joker's body began to glow with a deep purple light. He smirked and said, "Adapt."17Please respect copyright.PENANAz5u9OodCAw
Kaipo's eyes narrowed as he watched Joker. "Adapt" was an ability that allowed Joker to adjust to any concept, power, or ability over time. The more Joker encountered that power, the faster he adapted to it. Now, Joker had fully adapted to Kaipo's Tenth Jewel, rendering any attack from it useless.17Please respect copyright.PENANAbsbL7cpMJt
Joker laughed menacingly. "Your tricks won't work on me anymore. I've adapted to your Tenth Jewel. Your power is now meaningless against me."17Please respect copyright.PENANAU0KRQyAwXQ
Kaipo's frustration grew. It seemed as if Joker was always one step ahead, his Corrupt Heart abilities giving him an edge that felt almost unfair. But Kaipo wasn't finished yet.17Please respect copyright.PENANAlZ7LW66ZV3
"Now!" Kaipo shouted.
In response, the Land of Spade army arrived once more, led by Kanju. The soldiers, ready to aid Kaipo in the battle, formed ranks, prepared for a final assault. Joker laughed, thinking Kaipo was calling for help out of desperation. But then he noticed Kaipo kneeling and praying.17Please respect copyright.PENANAYQsVwZRB9x
"What are you doing?" Joker sneered. "Praying won't save you."17Please respect copyright.PENANAIgjpSu9et8
Kaipo's voice was steady as he prayed. "Forgive me for what I'm about to do, for it is an evil greater than anyone could commit."17Please respect copyright.PENANALO6UAYCtvM
The Land of Spade army, believing they were back to assist Kaipo as part of the plan, stood ready. But Kaipo had something else in mind. He clapped his hands together and said, "Essence Manifest: Give."17Please respect copyright.PENANANc6vpYSjSF
In an instant, all the members of the Land of Spade army received a unique Essence Manifest based on their own abilities and powers. The soldiers marveled at their newfound strengths, ready to turn the tide of battle.17Please respect copyright.PENANASr6P1I8lzN
But Kaipo's voice cut through the air again. "Take."17Please respect copyright.PENANAdv5LTaajTK
With a single word, Kaipo stripped the entire army of their Essence Manifests, absorbing over a thousand unique and powerful abilities into himself. The soldiers, left without their life force, collapsed lifelessly to the ground.17Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9Mpn4toHN
Kaipo's personal Essence Manifest, ChronoGenesis Nexus, activated. He unleashed its Specialty Technique, "Eclipse Pulse," a massive pulse of energy that alternated between healing life force and nullifying anti-magic. This pulse restored Kaipo while simultaneously stripping the army of their magical abilities and enhancements.17Please respect copyright.PENANAq4uKh4PSSO
The energy and life force of the Land of Spade army were drained and absorbed into Kaipo, leaving the entire army lifeless. Kaipo's body glowed with a menacing red aura, his power exponentially increased by the essence he had taken.17Please respect copyright.PENANA9HRTjBmSKL
Kaipo began to laugh, a sound filled with dark triumph. "You thought you could defeat me, Joker? You have no idea what true power is."17Please respect copyright.PENANAL8U2i4RlXk
Joker's smile faltered for the first time, a hint of uncertainty in his eyes as he faced the new, overwhelmingly powerful Kaipo.17Please respect copyright.PENANATngHmPCBCu
The chapter ended there, leaving the future uncertain and the scale of the battle more devastating than ever before.17Please respect copyright.PENANA0SSJatudTU
