   Sounds of detonations were berserking in the unknown pocket realm and trees were being destroyed in the process, filling different sections with dust-clouds. Karma leaped out of the dust-clouds but Cloud appeared in her front and unleashed a barrage of fierce punches to which she easily evades.

  "His power is still increasing. Good." Karma said within, "Come on. Show me..."

   "What you got!" Karma said within as she punched Cloud on the face.

   The punch sent Cloud skidding back but Cloud steadied himself and dashed towards her in attempt to punch back but Karma dodges it and punched him twice, only for Cloud to quickly retaliate with a punch of his own.  Karma and Cloud traded blows with each other but Karma began to overpower him and sent him rolling backwards and breaking through numerous trees with a single swing.

  Cloud appeared behind Karma and hurled his fist which created an air eruption. Karma casually landed on her feet and quickly hops back to avoid another punch from Cloud. Cloud appeared behind Karma again but Karma anticipating this, twirls her body to deliver a low roundhouse only for him to show up at her back again and punch her from behind. Karma easily stabilized herself and quickly raised her arms to guard as she was being attacked from all directions by numerous streaks of blue light.

   While Karma was being rushed by the streaks of light, Cloud materialized behind her in midair and knocks her back with a kick. Karma steadied herself again but Cloud appeared in her front but as soon as Karma swung her fist, it turned out to be an afterimage. Karma glanced at different directions and took notice of the numerous duplicates of Cloud running round her in order to bring confusion. The duplicates kept swirling around Karma at a blinding speed until they disintegrated into blue light, only for a larger portion of duplicates to surround Karma as though they had advanced to attack, some in mid air and some on the ground.

   "Dragon's art: blazing devastator!" Karma said as she raised her leg high and slammed her foot on the ground.

  A gigantic barrier of red flames exploded and decimated everything that surrounded Karma, however as Karma raised her head, she caught sight of Cloud high in the air, staring down at her with a glare; Cloud descended on Karma with an astonishing speed that created large craters and smokescreen and after the smokescreen had cleared, Cloud was shown in a mounted position on Karma.

   With no time wasted, Cloud fired a furious storm of blows, hitting Karma with so much momentum while yelling that his fists were covered in flames and each of his punches created a wave of fire that spread across the vicinity and burnt many trees; with each punch, the waves grew wider and burnt more trees and objects and with a mighty blare, Cloud delivered a punch so powerful it created a blue wave of flames followed with lightning that  incinerated countless objects, trees, hills and lakes.

  Just as the smoke had cleared, Karma stared at Cloud, showing no signs of being harmed by the attack. 

   "Feel better?" Karma asked.

    An air blast immediately occurred and Cloud was sent rolling backwards. Cloud laid on the ground for a while but as he raised his head, he caught sight of Karma walking towards him while stretching her neck.

  "Is that all?" Karma asked.

   Just as Cloud stood on his feet, Karma took notice of his bruised knuckles and his knees slightly trembling.  Cloud stared at Karma for a moment, grits his teeth and with a blare, he dashed at her only for Karma to sidestep him; Cloud made multiple attempts to punch Karma but she effortlessly averts them all while stepping back. Karma parried one of Cloud's punches and struck him with an elbow to the face, kicked him on his left thigh, followed her attack with a punch to his face and ended with a roundhouse kick that sent him spinning in the air.
