What followed shook Ieyasu where he stood.
His eyes widened as his stoic expression cracked, revealing pure disbelief.
Rui had discarded his anti-Ieyasu domain to focus the entirety of his mind on the CREATION System, allowing the man to witness what was happening inside his mind. The introduction of the CREATION System to Rui's Martial Art was unlike anything that Ieyasu had ever seen in his entire life.
It broke up the rigid sections, walls, and structure of the Flowing Void Style.
It broke up the solidity of the Flowing Void Style.
It destroyed the barriers between techniques.
It destroyed all the techniques that Rui had ever created in his entire life, reducing them all to foundation principles.
RUMBLE!
The world shook under the weight of the power that Rui subconsciously radiated as his mind struggled to integrate the extraordinary Martial Art.
And yet, he persisted.
The CREATION System possessed more innate adaptive evolution than anything else in his entire Martial Art.
That was why he didn't stop.
His Martial Art was not important.
What was important was Project Water.
What was important was Adaptive Evolution.
That was why the CREATION System was more important than his entire Martial Art!
"If my Martial Art has to change in order to accommodate the CREATION System, then…" He gritted his teeth as eyes flared with endless determination. "Then so be it!"
RUMBLE!!!
The world trembled as the solidity of the Flowing Void Style melted under the sheer brilliance of the light of the CREATION System.
It melted.
It melted into a liquid.
It melted into water.
In that moment, his Martial Embodiment emerged from the depths of his mind.
Gone was the endless darkness.
Gone was the void.
In its place emerged water.
An endless ocean of water.
RUMBLE!!!!!
Ieyasu shook where he stood as the Water of Adaptive Evolution consumed the entire world and beyond.
