Chapter 45 - Multiplier Zone! Ajax Body Fails?

Ishida finally finds a way to put Poka down for good now all that remains is for the group to escape the games before the Shogunate 9 Officer arrives at the meeting place, but it seems Nagama has more tricks up his sleeves for Ajax.

"Ugh this stupid multiplication whatever he called it zone thing is a pain in the ass. I can't get to him because he's overwhelming faster now." Ajax says as he knocks some debris out his hair and mouth.

"What's wrong Ronin? The longer you take to beat me the less time you have!" Nagama laughs, tossing his sword into the air over and over again.

"Oh shut it. You'll be flat on the ground by the end of all this Sword Arts: Electric Step." Ajax says as he vanishes and reappears in front of Nagama.

"Close but no cigar." Nagama bluntly says before smacking Ajax across the room and through the wall.

Ajax flops across the ground before standing up.

"Jeez he wasn't lying in the zone of his he really is double all his physical stats." Ajax groans as he spits out plenty of blood.

"Oh yeah that's right, coming back from the dead. I assume your injuries still haven't healed yet have they?" Nagama laughs as he follows Ajax out the meeting place.

"Keep pushing your fragile little body like that will only result in dying faster y'know?" He laughs.

"You're right. If I keep getting hit like that I'll die again. Well does it count because technically I didn't die?" Ajax says deadpanning.

"That's not the point, jackass!" Nagama yells.

"Yeah you're right it's me beating you right now." Ajax says as he runs and cuts through the ground.

"What's the plan here you think cause we left the building that I left the multiplier zone?" Nagama says as he plucks Ajax out of the air.

"You see boy this follows me everywhere this sword goes. So you can't expect me to lose you hear me!" Nagama yells as he attempts to punch Ajax in the gut only for him to somehow block with his sword.

"You worm!" Nagama growls.

Ajax pants his sword hand shaking violently.

"Ahh I get it now. That block of yours was just pure instincts. That's what you've been running on all this time. Since you're so close to death you're relying on instincts to beat me. News flash kid, your instincts are no match for me!" Nagama shouts as he flings Ajax off the ground, making him bounce into the air.

"Sword Arts: Multiplier Strike!" Nagama says as he pounds his sword straight into Ajax's midsection.

"Ghhh ahhhh shhhh!" Ajax groans as he bounces off the ground and rolls away.

"So what's it gonna be Ajax Nozami? Finally gonna accept your fate. It's sundown now. The Shogunate's are already here more than likely. It's only a matter of time before you and your little friends are dead, if not already." Nagama says walking up to Ajax.

Ajax doesn't say anything but tries to stand up.

"Don't bother that sword blow multiplied your weight by 2. Your body can't just simply adjust to that kind of weight all of a sudden." Nagama chuckles.

Ajax drives his sword into the ground.

"Shut up. You think you know me so well." Ajax stammers out quietly.

"What? You seriously think you can continue?" Nagama laughs.

"Total Concentration Sword Arts: Electric Dance Floor!" Ajax yells as lightning erupts from the ground.

"What the hell!" Nagama shouts as he gets washed away in the lightning as the ground continues its eruption.

As the lightning settles down and the dust settles Ajax stands up propping himself on his sword.

"C'mon surely." Ajax weakly says.

"You damn bastard! How dare you- no how COULD you even use that much power!" Nagama yells as he steps out the smoke and dust as his armour is completely singed.

"All those damn cuts in the ground he used as bait and when he had a chance he shot a lot lightning through the ground! Is this kid some type of genius?!" Nagama says to himself, staring at Ajax.

"No, that's definitely not it." Nagama mumbles.

Ajax stands up pointing his sword at Nagama once more.

"Fine then. But it seems that kinda output was enough to bypass your little Multiplier Zone so I'll just do it again!" Ajax yells as lightning strikes his blade.

"Yeah right your little bluff won't work on me! You're clearly on your last leg. I'll dice you up now Ajax Nozami! It'll be a miracle if you can even move!" Nagama shouts as he charges at Ajax.

As Nagama swings, Ajax disappears.

"Wait, where did he go?" Nagama questions.

"Miracle huh? Last leg? Then how do you explain this?" Ajax says from above Nagama.

"You're full of tricks aren't yah?" Nagama says as he blocks Ajax's strike his feet sinking into the ground.

Nagama attempts to grab Ajax only for Ajax to block and kick Nagama away.

"I'm far from finis-." Ajax says before faceplanting on the ground.

"Hmm?" Nagama looks confused.

"My body.....I can't move!" Ajax sputters spitting out blood.

"Oh silly me I forgot. You're dying! That little strong front of yours was adrenaline. But now it's no longer there is it? All that pain and your wounds are reopening. You're just a mere human, your body is failing you. You're losing blood at a rapid rate. There's no need for me to fight you anymore. Your body will finish you off." Nagama says sheathing his sword.

"No, gotta move. I gotta move. C'mon stupid body move dammit!" Ajax shouts causing him to spit out more blood.

"Farewell Ajax Nozami. You did prove that maybe some rookies can be strong. But not strong enough." Nagama finishes and begins to walk away.

"Stop right there moron!" A voice shouts from the meeting place building.

"Hmm? An interruption?" Nagama says.

"Ajax is gonna kick your ass so don't run from it!" Ishida yells, bolting out the building hole.

"Your kidding did Poka fail?" Nagama mumbles his hand reaching for his sword.

"Too late you bastard Total Concentration Martial Arts: La patada de resonancia de Ishida!" Ishida yells as he kicks Nagama square in the chest, sending him flying back.

"Ishida you're alive." Ajax mumbles from the ground.

Ishida lands on the ground wobbling a bit.

"Of course I am you damn fool you didn't order me to die yet! Now stand up and kick his ass already! We gotta get outta here dumbass!" Ishida yells before collapsing to the ground.

"You're right. I'm sorry." Ajax says gritting his teeth as he practically forces his entire body to stand.

"Your friend is gonna get himself killed saving you like that." Nagama says standing up a nice foot print on his chest from where Ishida kicked him.

"He's no fool. And he was right. I have to beat you. How else am I supposed to get outta here!" Ajax yells as he charges at Nagama.
