Reborn of The Mercenary: [Toji Fushiguro x Highschool DxD]

Chapter 28: Balance breaker!

Kuoh Academy Field

The battlefield was a chaos of energy and power. Aziel, the Angel of Execution, hovered menacingly above, his cold blue eyes scanning the tumult. His presence was a crushing weight, and his white armor gleamed with an intimidating aura as he prepared to unleash his full might.

"Prepare yourselves," Aziel's voice was icy and devoid of mercy. "I will show no quarter."

In an instant, Aziel conjured a massive sphere of crimson energy. "Holy Technique: Red!" he roared, hurling the sphere towards the Gremory peerage. The sphere exploded upon impact, creating a massive crater and sending shockwaves rippling through the battlefield.

"Scatter!" Rias shouted urgently, her eyes wide with alarm. Her command was barely audible over the roar of the explosion. The sheer force of Aziel's Red Technique was devastating, tearing through the ground and forcing everyone to flee from the blast radius.

As the dust settled, Aziel followed up with "Holy Technique: Blue," an intense blue sphere that distorted gravity, pulling everything towards its center with a crushing force. The gravitational pull was overwhelming, and the Gremory peerage struggled to escape the relentless pressure.

Koneko leapt into the air, her superhuman strength enabling her to avoid the worst of the effect, while Akeno used her lightning to counteract the gravitational pull. Despite their efforts, the sheer intensity of the Blue Technique was nearly overpowering.

Aziel's eyes remained cold as he observed the chaos. His next move was a formidable combination of the previous techniques. "Holy Technique: Purple!" he declared, releasing a devastating beam that combined the destructive power of Red with the gravitational force of Blue. The beam sliced through the battlefield with deadly precision.

Toji, struggling to find a way to turn the tide, watched in disbelief as the battlefield was ravaged. His Sacred Gear, Void Reaver, pulsed with latent energy, but he had yet to fully harness its potential. Determined to make a difference, Toji felt a surge of energy within him, an internal call to activate his Balance Breaker.

With a fierce shout, Toji activated his Balance Breaker. A powerful aura enveloped him, and his Sacred Gear transformed into a spear made of pure shadow. The spear's form shifted dynamically, allowing him to adjust its length and range as needed.

Aziel's gaze narrowed in recognition. "So, you've awakened your Balance Breaker."

Toji's form, now enhanced with the Balance Breaker's power, stood ready. His shadow spear glowed with dark energy, and he prepared to face the formidable Angel of Execution. The two combatants engaged in a fierce exchange. Toji's spear met Aziel's Holy Techniques with dark, sweeping strikes that nullified the energy attacks. The shadows around Toji's weapon extended and retracted fluidly, countering Aziel's precision attacks with remarkable agility.

Aziel, though a master of his own techniques, found himself struggling to keep up with Toji's enhanced speed and strength. The Balance Breaker allowed Toji to maneuver around Aziel's attacks with ease. Each strike from Toji's spear was more powerful than the last, forcing Aziel to constantly adapt and retreat.

Aziel attempted to unleash another Red Technique, but Toji's spear intercepted it. The shadows coiled around the attack, neutralizing its force and dissipating the energy with a dark burst.

"This power..." Aziel muttered, clearly strained by Toji's newfound abilities. "You've become a formidable adversary."

Toji pressed his advantage, his spear slicing through the air with increasing precision. The shadows around him obeyed his every command, creating a formidable defense against Aziel's relentless attacks. Each strike from Toji's spear pushed Aziel further back, his once-imposing presence now faltering.

Aziel tried to unleash his Purple Technique once more, combining the destructive force of Red with the gravitational pull of Blue. But Toji's spear met the attack head-on, the shadows enveloping the beam and neutralizing its force.

"You're finished," Toji declared, his voice resolute.

He thrust his spear forward, shadows swirling around Aziel and binding him in place. Aziel's attempts to break free were futile against the dark binding force. Toji's Balance Breaker allowed him to bypass the Limitless ability of Aziel's techniques, rendering them ineffective.
