Chapter 44: Delayed Rose!  

.......

By the time the light of dawn shone upon his pitch-black eyes, the ball became small enough to fit in his hands as it floated above his right hand.

Slowly his lips curved into a beautiful smile signifying his satisfaction while noting the slight increase in his Domain range.

'Now, I just have to get more Angel's breath cards and repeat the same process as much as I can but first I must regenerate my Aura, I basically expended my entire Aura pool.'

Then he just sat down with no movement until he recovered enough Nen for his next goal.

Following this, he destroyed a rock close to him into several small stones, once they touched the ground, they turned into cards before one of them flew until it hovered in front of him.

A purple semi-transparent bubble surrounded him as he activated a perfect 2 meters amplification domain, then he started concentrating most of his Nen to his hands forming a black sphere around them.

'Hatsu- Violet Rose - M=4, T=5 - Sub-ability: -Delayed Rose-' Target: Greed Island

Then he attacked using his muscles strength with the combination of controlling himself with his Domain pushing his speed to an astonishing level much higher than his previous level.

His attacks seemed to create a gust of sharp winds that went on for hundreds of meters though because of his speed that surpassed the hyper-sonic level by far, the sound of the winds seemed to be soo slow in comparison.

Once the timer ended, he stopped yet the wind still howelled in the distance for a while after, the card still floated in front of him completely purple not disappearing even after the timer ended.

Though what could be Noticed is the purple lines spreading across several miles around him all over the land and the hills.

The purple line looked like poison spreading its clutches on this land slowly expanding as if trying to paint the whole Island in its color. A gleam of light speared deep in Yasuo's eyes as he thought, 'My input capacity increased soo much huh though I noticed the more it increased the harder it is to increase more.

My brain is reaching its limits...predictable that's what my plans and researches are for... breaking my limits.'

He then observed the purple lines everywhere while stroking his earring, 'Hmm, my enhancement Hatsu is working as intended, it just needs time to spread making the returns for my conjuration Hatsu bigger,'

This is the result of a sub-ability of my enhancement called Delayed Rose which makes it possible for me to deal the damage whenever I want with the benefit of the damage I dealt increasing by 1% of the total damage every 6 hours.

But I can't use Delayed Rose again on the same target if it's already in effect. And the only way to counter it is to eliminate the user or make him cancel it.

-Hatsu- Delayed Rose- sub-ability of Violet Rose:

The user has to set the timer, multiplier, and the target just like the normal ability.

The user has to do as much damage as possible in the span of 5 seconds max (Timer), once the timer ended, the overall damage multiplied will keep increasing by 1% of the overall damage at that specific point every 6 hours.

The damage 1% represents will differ as time pass since every 6 hours the damage will increase changing what the 1% represents with it.

If the ability is already in effect on a specific target then it can't be used on that same target again but it can be used on other targets.

The user can deal the damage the ability accumulated wherever the user wants from anywhere.

The user can naturally know how much damage has accumulated whenever the user wants.

It's much harder to fulfill the requirements as the user's attacks in this case will inflict lower damage than normal depending on the target's strength.

.....

Once Yasuo used his Hatsu on the Island, he sat down, closed his eyes, and just waited for a few days while using 'In' the entire time making the purple lines spreading in the Island undetectable unless one used Gyo still, it's bound to be found.

He waited until his senses picked up something, he then noticed someone flying with a light ball surrounding the person. the same effect some cards have in Greed Island, 'Hmm, they reacted faster than I thought, oh well...'

Once the large ball of light fell in front of him, what appeared is is a tall, extremely well-built man with broad shoulders and large muscles spanning his entire body, this is Razor one of the 11 game masters.

He looked around using Gyo noticing that the purple lines are concentrated more in here.

He then looked at Yasuo while narrowing his eyes, "You're quite the trouble maker, you first brought someone to the game without going through the right way though we decided to ignore it since the said person isn't a Nen user. now you're doing this,"

Yasuo looked at him saying, "I'm just testing my ability, there are no rules against this I believe," Razor then said in a laid back and friendly tone, showing little to no animosity, "There isn't but that doesn't stop me from using my power as a game master to send you away." With that, he showed a card with 'Ruler only' written on it.

"This is a game master only card which Allows the caster to transport any elements in Greed Island to a random location of the Azian Continent, if you can stop what you're doing then I'll leave, if not, I'll have to send you away."

Yasuo just casually smiled while saying, "Sending me away won't change anything,"

Razor let out a sigh, "Troublesome huh. You did this and waited for someone to get here or me specifically, so what's your goal?"

"From the information I got, defeating you is the key to getting an important card but 15 players are needed and I'm not interested in gathering this number of people so I want to take a shortcut," Yasuo.

Yasuo then continued, "So how about this, we'll fight here, If you win, I'll cancel my ability and I'll owe you one, if I win you'll owe me one. I'm planning on visiting the pirate's den later so I might use it at that time."

Razor narrowed his eyes while saying, "You can't expect me to believe you did all of this for a card but as long as you don't ask for anything I can't deliver or something I don't want to do then I accept,"

There seems to be a hint of surprise in Yasuo's eyes, "Oh, I didn't expect you to accept so easily, "

Razor with a friendly smile, "Well, someone offered me a similar deal in the past so why not,"

With that, his friendly expression turned into a stern one as he said, "I don't know exactly how strong you are but that by itself should testify to your strength so I won't hold back nor should you."

Yasuo then stood up while using 'Ken' the defensive form of 'Ren' as Razor did the same though Yasuo used just enough aura to match Razors.

From afar, what could be seen is two figures standing in the desert facing each other with the purple aura surrounding them both though one is darker than the other.

Then Razor disappeared only to appear close to Yasuo who stood his Ground as Razor readied his punch with a high amount of aura concentrating on his punching hand.

Yasuo lifted his hands in a blocking position while concentrating just enough aura to fend off the attack.

Once the punch came down and made contact with his hands, it created enough impact to force the ground beneath Yasuo to shatter with a small whirlpool of sand spreading around him.

Then with a speed hard to track, Yasuo allocated some of his Aura to his right leg then instantly Kicked Razor's left hand though the latter reacted fast enough to allocate enough aura to his left hand providing enough protection to lower the damage.

Yet the impact still sent him flying a few meters to his right with a large bruise on his arm bringing a trace of a surprise to Razor's face.

A surprise that turned to astonishment once he noticed Yasuo appearing close to him with a punch coming down on him while he is still flying in the air limiting his range of movements.

A serious expression surfaced on his face as he brought his right hand to defend while allocating as much aura as he can trying to minimize the damage though that didn't help much as he was instead sent crashing to the ground with it shattering...
