Akame ga Kill: Starting with Dual Kamui-Chapter 129: Susanoo’s Second Form

Although Susanoo isn't as broken as Double Kamui's spatial abilities, it possesses absolute power and absolute defense.

If the body can withstand its immense energy drain, then Susanoo is undoubtedly the best choice for a head-on confrontation.

Susanoo works by consuming Dōjutsu and materializing chakra into a tangible form, which usually results in excruciating pain throughout the body.

However, since Blayn had no chakra, his Susanoo was bound to be a modified version—one that likely relied on his Constitution to sustain it.

Currently, his Constitution was over thirty times that of an ordinary person, but whether it was enough to handle the energy drain of Susanoo's second form remained uncertain. To play it safe, he kept Susanoo in its first form for now.

If that wasn't enough, he could always push it further—simple as that.

...

"So, you have this kind of ability? A Teigu in the form of armor? Just how many powers do you have? You never fail to surprise me!"

Faced with the overwhelming presence of Blayn, Esdeath was both on guard and genuinely excited.

Meanwhile, hiding in the shadows, Kurome and Chelsea were also witnessing this ability of Blayn's for the first time.

"A Teigu that grants this kind of power... it's kinda similar to Bulat's 'Demon Armor,' but no—Bulat's wasn't this massive."

"I've never seen the Commander use this before. Could it be that he's already developed his Teigu to its absolute limit?"

Chelsea and Kurome were stunned.

Blayn simply had too many abilities.

If not for the Teigu Iron Rule, they might've suspected that he was using multiple Teigus at once.

After all, wielding two Teigus simultaneously was already a violation of the rule, and doing so inflicted serious harm on the body.

...

Without hesitation, Blayn controlled Susanoo's massive right hand to grab Esdeath. Despite its towering size, Susanoo was anything but sluggish—it moved with remarkable speed.

Seeing that dodging was nearly impossible, Esdeath decided not to evade. Instead, she attempted to freeze Blayn completely.

When her hand touched Susanoo, a thick layer of ice immediately formed over its surface.

However, it had absolutely no effect on Blayn inside.

And in the next instant, Blayn simply willed Susanoo to shatter the ice with ease.

Realizing that her freezing abilities were completely ineffective, Esdeath immediately decided to go all out.

Raising her hand, she summoned a massive block of ice from the sky—a frozen boulder the size of a small meteorite, easily over a hundred meters in diameter.

Under her command, it plummeted toward Blayn with terrifying force.

Blayn lifted Susanoo's arms to block the incoming attack.

BOOM—!

The massive ice boulder crashed into Susanoo, creating an earth-shaking impact. The sheer force of the collision sent shockwaves rippling outward, toppling countless trees in the area.

Shards of ice rained down, covering the ground, while dust and mist filled the air.

For a moment, visibility was completely obscured.

But when the dust finally settled...

Blayn's Susanoo stood tall—completely intact.

It had tanked Esdeath's attack head-on, suffering only a few minor cracks on its outer shell.

This was the overwhelming power of Susanoo.

While Double Kamui had its game-breaking instant kill mechanics, when it came to sheer brute force, Susanoo was the superior choice.

Its absolute defense was nearly unbeatable in this world.

And unlike Intangibility, which prevented him from attacking while phasing, Susanoo allowed him to both defend and strike at the same time.

"...That's impressive."

Seeing this, Esdeath couldn't help but remark, "Then how about one even bigger? Maybe that will have some effect?"

Before she even finished speaking, another ice meteor, twice the size of the previous one, formed in the clouds.

Kurome and Chelsea saw this and quickly stepped back to avoid being caught in the impact.

"I think the Commander should be fine..."

"He should be fine. If Blayn's life is in danger, I will definitely stop Esdeath—and if possible, kill her."

Chelsea's eyes hardened as she spoke.

After fighting Blayn, Esdeath should be at her weakest.

Not only was this an opportunity to eliminate the strongest force of Honest's regime, but also a chance to protect Blayn. She would do whatever it took.

Only after saying it did Chelsea realize how aggressive she had become.

If this were the old her, she would never have taken such a risk without absolute certainty.

...This is because of Blayn, isn't it?

"I will save the Commander too."

Kurome nodded, her resolve firm.

She held in her arms a medicine with the most potent effect.

Though the Commander had warned her against taking such medicine lightly, if the moment called for it, she wouldn't hesitate.

...

As the ice meteor hurtled toward Blayn, Esdeath conjured countless ice spears, hovering behind her like the "King's Treasure," then launched them at a single weak point on Susanoo, aiming to break through.

She refused to believe Blayn's ability was truly indestructible.

The ice meteor and countless spears struck at once, and the first form of Susanoo was already struggling to hold out.

Blayn could see more and more cracks forming across its surface. It wouldn't last much longer.

After all, this was only its first form—each transformation had vastly different levels of offense and defense.

Since maintaining the first form didn't put much strain on him, he was just about to transition into the second form when Esdeath suddenly halted her attack.

After enduring the relentless assault of the ice meteor and spears, Susanoo looked as if it were on the verge of collapse.

Of course, this was just an illusion. With a single thought, Blayn could advance to the second form, greatly enhancing both his attack and defense.

But for Esdeath to stop now—it was odd.

A smirk played at her lips.

"Mahapadma!"

Without warning, she activated her ultimate technique.

Although she had many more techniques at her disposal, she knew none of them would be particularly effective against Blayn.

In an instant, she froze the entire space—time itself came to a halt!

Blayn could clearly feel time and space freezing around him, leaving him completely immobile.

But he quickly realized—this wasn't absolute freezing.

Rather, Esdeath had slowed down the flow of time and space in the surrounding area by an immeasurable degree.

Otherwise, Tatsumi's "Demon Armor" in the original story wouldn't have been able to adapt to Esdeath's "Mahapadma." Absolute freezing couldn't be countered—only "relative freezing" could.

Understanding this, Blayn immediately attempted to use "Intangibility."

However, because time and space had been slowed to an extreme degree, Esdeath had already exploited a gap in the weakened first form of Susanoo and was now closing in.

She intended to end the fight with her sword tip at Blayn's throat—she couldn't bring herself to actually kill him.

But at that crucial moment, Blayn finally succeeded in activating "Intangibility."

The ability instantly shattered Esdeath's Mahapadma, allowing Blayn to move freely even within the frozen space-time.

Without hesitation, he escaped from Mahapadma's range at full speed and immediately activated Susanoo's second form!
