Purple meteors poured down in the still space and time, and each blow accurately hit the monster's brain!

The watermelon burst and the juice splashed everywhere.

"Om-!"

Time begins to flow.

The dull sound of skulls breaking became one after another, and the man flew backwards again.

but--

"Click, click, click..."

as always

The lava lines continued to spread on the body, and the broken bones were still forcibly melted by the flames!

It was as if boiling magma was surging through his veins! A dark red glow shone from beneath his charred skin.

"boom--!"

The monster suddenly raised its head, revealing its hideous face engulfed in flames.

Except for the left eye which still had a human pupil, the rest had all turned into burning bones!

"ho"

Black smoke smelling of sulfur billowed from his mouth and nose.

Just swung his arms.

"Wow!"

Dark red flames condensed into chains that wrapped around his arms.

There was no roar, no threat, he just whispered, remained silent, and walked towards us step by step.

No nonsense.

"boom!"

The chains of hell tore through the sky like two fiery pythons, melting street lamps and vaporizing guardrails wherever they passed!

The speed is far beyond the limit of human beings!

Facing the incoming fire chain, Locke didn't even take a step back. He simply tensed the muscles in his right arm, his five fingers like the hardest alloy drill bits.

"Hey!"

It squeezed into the heavy SUV parked nearby without any hindrance!

The solid steel plate became as fragile as tofu in his hands!

Immediately afterwards, an indescribable terrifying force erupted!

“Buzz—bang!!!”

He actually lifted the heavy black SUV with one arm!

The huge steel body seemed to have lost all its weight in his hands, and turned into a siege hammer that could destroy the world. With a dull whistling sound that tore through the air, he smashed it fiercely at the oncoming fire chain with an attitude that made it look like he was lifting a heavy weight with ease and yet was unstoppable!

However, the power of the Hell Chains far exceeds that of steel!

"boom!"

Two fire pythons collided violently with the flying SUV!

No stalemate, only overwhelming victory!

Chains of blazing white lava sliced ​​through the sturdy SUV like a red-hot iron cutting through butter, instantly tearing through and melting through it! The fuel tank exploded, triggering a deafening secondary explosion! A massive fireball, carrying countless shards of blazing metal, hurled itself wildly in all directions! The scorching airwaves scorched the ground to a crisp!

And just as the flames and debris of the explosion were about to engulf Locke's figure—

"The World!"

Time has frozen!

The roar of explosions, the flying debris, the billowing flames, and even the flow of air!

At this moment, the pause button was pressed.

The world faded into an eerie gray and dead silence.

Only Locke's figure turned into lightning that tore through the still scroll, and turned into a blurred afterimage in the time-stopped area, instantly crossing the fatal distance between the center of the explosion and Durance!

"Eula!"

The shadow of the Platinum Star solidified behind him. The terrifying iron fist had already accumulated enough power to collapse mountains and split rocks. It tore through the still air and slammed towards Durance's face with the will to crush everything!

But the monster's reaction was just as inhumanly fast!

It seemed that he had already predicted this time-transcending attack. Between the end of the time stop and the lightning-fast collision of the fist and the body, he suddenly shook his wrist!

"call out--!"

One of the chains that had just blown up the SUV and was still wrapped in the lingering hellfire and burning metal fragments, turned into a living scorpion tail and suddenly reeled back at an incredible angle and speed!

The chain was stretched straight, and with a sharp scream that could tear through space, it shot towards Locke's iron fist with incredible precision.

"boom!!!"

He was the first to arrive after starting later, and the Platinum Star hit the chain accurately.

The flames of the explosion soared into the sky!

The shockwaves of flames and Stand energy overturned the road surface within a ten-meter radius, and hot gravel fell like rain.

The fist of Star Platinum was actually burned with scorch marks, but the chain was only slightly tilted, and then it wrapped around it like a living thing, and fiercely cut towards Locke!

"What a troublesome monster"

A trace of solemnity flashed in Locke's eyes.

He retreated quickly, but saw that Durance was able to use the momentum to leap into the air, with his arms crossed, and the chains above his head coiled into a flaming wheel, smashing down with the power to burn everything!

"sorry"

Locke couldn't tell whether the man was crying or roaring.

but.

he knows.

"Star Platinum!"

"The World!"

Time stopped without hesitation, and gray-white color enveloped the world!

Five seconds!

This is Locke's limit.

He and Star Platinum charged forward like lightning, soaring high into the sky! Their goal was to target Durance's defenseless chest and brain!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The dull sound of impact, like beating drums, exploded densely in the solidified gray-white world!

Locke and Star Platinum's figures were like two silver lightning bolts that ripped through space and time. At speeds impossible for the naked eye to grasp, they frantically shuttled around and bombarded Durance, who was suspended in mid-air! Star Platinum's iron fist, the size of a casserole, was wrapped in the power to shatter stars. It turned into a blurry storm of fist shadows, pouring down mercilessly on Durance's huge, twisted body from all directions!

"Ola Ola Ola Ola!!!"

Each heavy blow caused the monster's hide, blazing with black flames, to tremble violently, and cracks spread rapidly like a spider web! Debris and sparks hung strangely in the still air.

Chest, abdomen, spine, joints, head...

Hit anywhere without any blind spots!!!

Five seconds! This is the limit of Locke's time stop!

A cold light flashed in Locke's eyes, and he struck the final blow—

Star Platinum gathered all his strength and threw an uppercut, which hit Durance's jaw hard, causing his entire huge body to tilt violently upwards!

It's now.

withdraw!

Time is flowing again!

Locke and Star Platinum also took advantage of the recoil of the final blow.

Like an arrow shot from a bow, it rushed backward at a terrifying speed far exceeding the speed of sound!

But what followed was.

A sudden change occurred!

"Woo——!!!"

Durance, who was almost unrecognizable after being beaten by the Platinum Star's violent combo, suddenly let out a roar that was hard to tell whether it was a wail of pain or a roar of anger! The sound was twisted and piercing, as if it came from the abyss of hell.

Immediately afterwards, the deep cracks all over his body that were created by the Platinum Star's heavy punch suddenly lit up with a dazzling red light!

“BOOM——————!!!”

It was as if a volcano that had been suppressed for thousands of years had finally found an outlet!

The raging hellfire within Durance wasn't used for defense, but was instantly ignited by his self-destructive will! The terrifying energy, centered around his body, expanded wildly and violently without warning!

A destructive fireball, over ten meters in diameter and composed of pure black and red flames, exploded before Locke's eyes! Its speed was so fast it defied imagination! It wasn't a shield, but a premeditated, all-consuming explosion!

"what?!"

Locke's pupils instantly shrank to the size of pinpoints! The fatal warning sign was like a drenching head in ice water!

Too close! The explosion radius is too large!

He and Star Platinum had just come out of a combo, their old strength had gone and new strength had not yet been generated, and they were still in the inertia of flying backwards at high speed. It was simply impossible for them to make a perfect evasive move at such a close distance and in such a short time!

"Star Platinum!!!"

At the critical moment, Locke and his stand were in telepathy. Star Platinum burst out at its maximum speed, crossed his arms, and instantly stood in front of Locke, forming the last barrier!

however--

"boom--!!!"

The destructive shock wave, mixed with the infernal fire that could melt steel, was like the roaring mouth of a giant beast, and it slammed into the hastily defended Star Platinum, as well as Locke behind him who had no time to dodge completely!

Blazing! Violent! Crush!

"Ugh!"

Locke felt like he was hit head-on by a high-speed train. His internal organs were shaken violently and he was blown backwards, falling heavily to the ground!

The purple body of Star Platinum fluctuated violently and became somewhat illusory.

The burning fire poison corroded Locke's spirit along the connection of the substitute, and the terrible pain made his eyes go black.

Locke forced himself to stand up, a bloody taste rising in his throat. He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes focused forward, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

The man in front of him had completely lost his human form!

Beneath the charred and cracked skin, dark red lava lines wriggled like a living thing. A diamond-shaped dark red crystal was deeply embedded in the chest, with flames flowing on the surface of the crystal, trembling rhythmically like a heart.

Obviously

The energy just now was detonated from here!

After all, even a fool could see that the glowing lava lines all over the body of the man in front of him were powered by this!

"Kaka."

Durance slowly raised his head, his lower jaw exposed, and black smoke with a sulfur smell spewed out from between his teeth covered by lava.

"Your Time"

"I'm prepared, sorry."

Locke was stunned, cold sweat sliding down his back.

this man

Did he actually notice that time was paused?!

Indeed, after three consecutive activations of the time stop, even the dullest killer should have noticed something unusual.
