The Jamaican Acquisition

It seemed like things finally had begun to heat up; Magnolia’s body shifted as sting receded, rather than being injured by her attack though, her keen perception which stemmed from the ungodly level of focus she had reached allowed her to deduce the following: He had from the looks of his body trajectory managed to distribute and otherwise dissipate the inertia acting upon his body through some means, thus she had from this first clue already deduced his backwards trajectory was most likely some sort of set-up. Why would she reason this? In a clash between high grade warriors it’s said that you don’t need words to express your intent, instead it was conveyed through the subtle nuances of body positioning, and the force of your fists. It was a sentiment magnolia believed in, and was why when in a fight she didn’t find the need to banter, instead she often just let her fists do the talking.

So as the massive amalgamation of energy known as a cero was shot from sting’s body whilst he continued to infinitely near the barrier, magnolia let out an exhale. The vortex like force of her breath being thrust through the air akin to a tornado. For the cero the action that sting did it in would be interesting, while it looked to the naked eye like she hadn’t moved, spiritual energy expanded rapidly and pierced through it like a lance, the electrical phenomena following causing an expulsive force of atoms within the very center of the cero, this would cause the entire mass to disperse rapidly without even coming into contact with her body. It’d be prudent then to note during the entire handful of seconds all this transpired, magnolia hadn’t moved. Rather than moving or turning her head she was doing something very crucial to the next handful of moves that would follow.

She was tracking his spiritual signature, since for such a powerful being there is obviously going to be an equally monstrous trail of reiatsu left in it’s wake. From this she deduced his position almost simultaneously with the action of sting flying down from the barrier itself, the very air quaking from the varying accumulation of forces that had been focused upon his lithe frame. The rumbled with a low thrum of accompanying shockwaves being displaced from the strange electrical garb that sting had donned, but right now in the split second this crouching dragon descended upon magnolia, she had shifted her foot as the very air began to emit properties which had the ability to suppress force and more importantly Weight. It was a rather nifty technique she had in her arsenal, known as weightless mountain.

While weightless mountain was a technique specifically designed for reducing the actual weight stemming from mass, the way that stings inertia was focused and then redirected explosively was very similar to simple weight. Because of this the interaction of the two fairly opposite concepts allowed magnolia to the moment the attack seemed to come within inches of her faces to reduce the force behind it by around 20%. Now this in the grand picture would be a reduction of massive amounts of pressure, however looking at the fact at a touch this ability was more than capable of reducing actual weight to a 5th of it’s normal weight; you’d begin to see the waste accompanied with trying to apply this type of technique upon something that it was not strictly meant to be used against.

This was the first step she took in this split second engage, yet as the very air vibrated from the dispersion and reduction of the force against her, the other thing would be noticed is the fist itself was off-centered. Due to the opponent having used his own ability with reckless abandon it would become shifted to a certain degree. Whilst it wasn’t much due to the prolonged exposure to the sudden domain, the distortion was enough that magnolia not only was capable of avoiding the attack, but she had done something else in the seconds following the strike taking place, which was as magnolia’s body seemed to shift upon a certain axis, the very air distorted around her fist as electrons seemed to invert their polarity, causing the ground within another several hundred feet to shatter from the force behind it. The right side of her kimono was instantaneously blown to shreds from the power of the fist, the fabric being torn into microscopic pieces as a jagged line was torn across her face, causing blood to splatter as the fist only just flew past her.


However this wasn’t the end of it, no as sting’s body drew close enough for their bodies to practically have meshed together, magnolia’s body weaved sliding smoothly around the remainder of stings arm. Her fist slid forward and due to the timing which was just as stings fist slid past her own sunk into stings own body. The repulsing polarity that was surrounding her attack aimed at the electricity based armor he had around his body. The raw distorting properties of this magnetic anomaly being more likely than not enough to not disperse, but for the split second of attack disrupt the very distributive properties that allowed it to distort and redistribute force. Then the catastrophic fist would sink into stings stomach, causing the very air around them to shatter, motes of dust being blown away as hopefully sting was sent flying. However this wasn’t the end of her motions.

As magnolia’s hair flew and her pupils contracted, her focus hit a peak and her adrenaline surged from the thrum of battle. In this state of heightened alert she had managed then to deliver a palm to stings side. The result? The angulation of stings trajectory would become shifted. Going from straight back through the air to yet again hopefully smashing directly into the ground, yet this time magnolia’s hand had gone numb, why? Counterforce would be to blame, since while the entirety of sting’s pressure was viciously focused into the fist which had only just missed her face, sting had an amply firm physique and furthermore there still was the plethora of inertia or force that was being enacted upon his body from his forward trajectory. This was why the likelihood of sting avoiding this attack was actually rather slim, and on the off chance of him avoiding this attack? Magnolia’s body was already in a peculiar position, her fists repositioned and her weight redistributed in a way that would be beneficial to high-speed engages.

But on the very likely instance of the fist hitting? Sting would be like a cannon ball shot out of a cannon, careening and crashing through the environment once more, this time probably it’d be very likely for internal injuries for one specific reason. Demon shattering blows, one of two natural tempering techniques in her martial arts. The reason for it being internal is , while Demon shattering blows is mainly intended for overwhelming strength and destructive force, the very properties of the punch enabled internal injuries to amass, and sting had been repeatedly hammered by this technique within every single one of magnolia’s strikes. So logically by this point his insides may not feel to grand.

However that said magnolia now waited to see what outcome would take place.
