The giant monster kept on wildly swinging both pillars, trying to swat away the annoying flies that were surrounding him.
"Fight like a man, you bastards!" he screamed, his singular eye looking around, following the movements of the only human among the enemies.
Senzo and the other three weren't perturbed in the slightest, and they kept running around while dodging the massive pillars flying around.
Senzo had been utilizing his powers to the absolute limit because the other three did not have any movement-related abilities, so he had to keep an eye on the pillars and the three horsemen and support them at a moment's notice.
His whole body was covered in sweat, but he didn't care; his eyes kept following the pillars the monster was swinging around without rest, and the moment he saw them approaching himself or any of the horsemen, he manipulated their vectors to make it so the pillars would barely miss their mark.
"Fuuuu!"
And while doing that, he also kept flying around, trying to find a good opportunity to strike the giant monster down, but its skin was insanely tough, and even with all four of them constantly attacking him, they could barely scratch it.
"Anyone got an idea we can try?" Senzo inquired, skillfully manipulating the sound so the monster wouldn't be able to hear them.
When the three horsemen suddenly heard Senzo's voice, they all momentarily stopped, but when they stopped, the giant monster didn't waste a second and swung both pillars straight at Death and Famine, clearly intending to squish the two skeletons into oblivion.
"Hehe, I knew it. You dirty mosquitos can't keep running around forever!"
But right when the pillars should have hit, Senzo pulled both of them back while pushing the pillars in the opposite directions.
"Haaah!"
"Hmph!"
But the giant monster had expected some sort of counter from that annoying human, and with all his might he tried resisting the weird power that bastard was using.
What he didn't expect, though, was that the little shit would also pull the two skeletons away at the same time.
So even after he barely resisted Senzo's vector manipulation and hit where the two skeletons had been standing, he still missed his mark.
"How dare you!"
Now fully enraged, the whole monster's originally red skin turned a majestic crimson color, and his immensely large body was shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The moment Senzo saw that, he felt a chill run down his spine, and with a single glance, all three horsemen immediately knew what to do.
"Charge!"
Senzo coated both of his arms in Taiji qi, and not only his arms but also his legs, and by combining his Taiji energy together with his vector manipulation, he appeared in front of the transforming monster in a fraction of a second.
And without hesitation he struck out with his right fist, connecting fully with the monster's ribcage. He had aimed straight for the heart with his Taiji fist; by combining the characteristics of the yin fist and the yang fist, he exerted the maximum destructive power he could currently utilize.
The next moment he pulled the three horsemen toward the shrinking monster as well; because they were still rather far away, he had to use a second to quickly pull them toward it so they could start bombarding the transforming beast with all they had.
Without a word, War tightly grasped his blood-red greatsword and started swinging it with everything he had at the joints of the bastard, but even with battle escalation powering him up significantly, he could barely injure the most vulnerable spots of the monster.
"!!!"
But he had no time to hesitate or be amazed at the body of this bastard, so he just kept on swinging his greatsword, targeting the wrists and Achilles heels of the bastard.
Death, on the other hand, stuck his scythe into the eye sockets of the monster, gouging his eyes out, and at the same time targeting the monster's soul, hoping to injure it as much as possible.
After his eyes were gouged out, the monster didn't scream but just kept on focusing on shrinking his body as fast as possible; he knew it was a risky move to do this at the moment, but it was his only way to actually hit those fuckers and completely wipe them out.
Famine suddenly put both his fingers into the monster's empty eye sockets and let out a greenish aura that gave Senzo a fright, but it was only momentarily.
Right now they didn't have the luxury to care about their methods, and if push came to shove, he would even let Pest out to help with their current predicament.
Not yet, though; it's looking pretty good.
While the three horsemen were doing their absolute best to injure the monster as much as possible and make it easier to handle after the transformation was over, they also all stared at Senzo, who was concentrating all his Taiji qi on a single point on his index finger.
At first it was all concentrated into his right arm, but he kept compressing it more and more until everything was concentrated at the tip of his index finger. There wasn't even a single drop of qi left inside his whole body, so he could only use his vector manipulation to reach his top speed.
He was sure if he didn't go this far, his strike would hardly deal any damage to the crimson-skinned monster in front of him. Even though he had no idea what that bastard was doing, Senzo was sure that after the transformation was over, the fight would be almost impossible to win.
So all he could do was try to finish it off in one hit, and that was why he hadn't joined the three horsemen in bombarding him with attacks.
"Move!"
Was all Senzo said before exerting as much speed as he possibly could while aiming the point with the concentrated Taiji qi straight at the monster's heart.
War and the other two only took a glance at Senzo, and when they saw the glowing fingertip, they all felt their bodies tremble uncontrollably; the next moment, they all jumped away.
Senzo easily broke through the sound barrier while he rushed straight at the monster, but he still had to be careful; this was the first time he had ever tried to push multiple of his powers to their absolute limits, and he couldn't afford to make any mistakes at the moment.
While squinting his eyes, he had arrived right in front of the monster within a second, and while simply pointing with his right index finger, he made contact with the monster's ribcage once again; this time, however, something completely different happened.
The concentrated Taiji qi rushed out of Senzo's finger and easily tore through the monster's incredibly dense muscle tissue, and a moment later it even pierced through his heart.
But not only did the qi not stop there, it looked like it was even becoming stronger and more ferocious the more flesh and organs it tore through, and a couple of seconds later a small beam made of black and white streaks left from the monster's back and flew straight toward the cage the dungeon core was in.
Bang!
A deafening sound echoed through the whole room when the Taiji qi made contact with the cage. Everyone was caught completely off guard, grasping their heads as they felt like their brains were being squashed by the immensely overpowering sound.
Senzo was the first to react and quickly used the vectors to isolate himself and the three horsemen from the sound, only leaving the monster to suffer, and with a single hand sign, he signaled for the horsemen to continue barraging him.
