Crushed stone fell as Su Xiao walked out from the hole blasted in the giant rock, his mouth full of the taste of rust—that was the taste of blood.
Su Xiao wasn't sure whether Blue Steel Shadow could hurt Katakuri, but judging from their earlier clashes, Katakuri had been unconsciously avoiding Dragon Slash the whole time, even twisting his mochi legs into a U-shape just to evade the blade.
Katakuri could foresee the future, and what exactly he had foreseen, Su Xiao had no way of knowing for now.
Of course, Katakuri dodging Dragon Slash like that could also be a trap he set up; if Blue Steel Shadow turned out to be ineffective against Katakuri, Su Xiao would very likely be heavily injured by him, and if he slipped even a little, he might lose his life on the spot.
Fighting Katakuri always carried the risk of being killed by him at any moment; this guy's overall strength was too high, with practically no obvious weaknesses.
