Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 974 Against Iron

Chapter 974 Against Iron

-----
The crowd cheered for us, as the tournament began. For a few moments, we all stood there, looking at one another. However, that moment was crucial, those ten seconds were our time for all of us to "boost" ourselves. By infusing Divine Power and Mana into our bodies.
Jotun had said that Divine Abilities and Divinities were not allowed, and specified that Divine Power was okay as long as it was used in the body itself… Just not through the "wacky" divine abilities or divinities, which apparently made things too "tricky"… as if someone that can manipulate gravity wasn't tricky though!
And then, a battle broke.
Surprisingly, Amethyst wasn't the first to come rolling our way, but Iron and the Boulder.
"GYAHAHAHAHA! I AM GOING TO ENJOY CRUSHING YOUR FACE!"
Iron immediately rushed my way, moving with incredible agility. His entire body danced around the colosseum arena, making the crowd quickly cheer for his amazing movements. It looked like I was trying to fight with someone that knew capoeira.
"HYA!"
SLASH!
Suddenly, his long tail moved swiftly, with the tip of a spear, it tried to pierce through my chest and take me down in an instant. However, I stood my ground and didn't moved at all, quickly grabbing his tail.
"Ah?!"
"HMMMMPH!"
I infused all the strength I had into my arms, lifting Iron's entire body off the ground. His face was completely shocked when I did, the entire crowd went completely nuts.
"W-What the…?!"
Iron himself was shocked.
"How about you go back to the ground, where you fucking BELONG!"
My loud roar shook the entire colosseum, Iron's entire body clashed into the hard floor which regenerated automatically, his entire body impacted into the ground, many of his scales cracked and shattered in an instant.
CLAAAAASSSSHHHH!!!
"AAKKHH…!"
Iron suddenly vomited a bit of blood, quickly almost getting knocked out with a mere attack. Merely grabbing his tail and then his entire body in the process and smacking him into the floor already got him so weak? Isn't this quite pathetic for someone so cocky- ungh?!
However, suddenly I felt a sharp pain in my hand. Without realizing it, I ended letting go of Iron's tail as I found my hand being completely pierced by a large spike. His own body fired that.
The spike was not normal either, it was imbued with a paralyzing venom, quickly making my arm and part of my body stiff like a log.
"Heh… Damn bastard, did you thought you had the high ground?" He laughed, suddenly standing up and getting ready to fight back. "I didn't earned my reputation by playing fair, you see… Gyahahahah…"
"Hoh?"
I looked at Iron with a calm demeanor, my entire body exuding an enormous quantity of freezing power.
"Interesting. But how about you look at your own tail first?" I asked with a smile.
"Eh?"
It was a bit too late for him to realize that his tail had lost all of its senses, and felt… slightly dulled.
CLASH!
The moment he looked back at his tail, half of it just fell off into the floor, shattering into tiny bits.
"W-Wha… My tail?! You froze it…"
Iron looked flabbergasted as he lost half his tail. And because the wound was frozen, he wasn't going to regenerate it any time like the nasty lizard he was.
"I am also not well known for playing fairly…" I said with a defying smile.
"Heh… Bastard…!" Laughed Iron, pouncing towards me with all the agility he had. His enormous claws grew larger and his spikes as well, coated in paralyzing venom.
"But this is as long as your tricks go! DIE!"
"HMPH!"
CLAAASH!
"GYE?!"
However, an enormous black scaled dragon fist hit Iron's face, crushing several of his spikes in the process, and almost dislocating his lower jaw.
BAAAM!!!
His entire body fell down into the floor, rolling around pathetically.
"Drake! You ok?"
It was my father.
I concentrated my energy around my body, and then…!
CRASH!
I destroyed all of my muscles and quickly regenerated them back, completely freeing myself from that powerful natural venom that nasty Iron's body secreted.
"As good as new!"
Meanwhile, I saw Benladann confronting Amethyst. Just as father said, she fired breath attacks from afar while Amethyst seemingly only fired light lasers from her crystals, the long-ranged fight was quite intense, as the two were flying around and evading one another's attacks.
However, Iron quickly stood up and moved so fast towards the two of us that he resembled a blur of brown and orange light, which was the color of his scales, alongside the red color of the tattoos over his skin.
"Oi, Boulder! Give me a hand here!"
Iron quickly called for Boulder, who was too slow to keep up with Benladann and Amethyst fighting.
"I was enjoying the view of you getting your ass beaten, sorry." Laughed Boulder.
"Bastard, we are fighting like a team now, get your shit together!!!" Iron roared angrily.
"Hahahaha!" Boulder laughed, seconds after, he suddenly curled up into a ball, as if he were an armadillo.
FLAAAAASH!
And he rolled towards us so fast it easily left Iron's amazing speed in shame.
CLAAASH!
He swiftly clashed against the two of us, as my father and I had to intercept his charging attack with all the strength we could muster.
His spikes were painful as well, they were easily shredding our scales, making us bleed all the time, our hands were getting shredded, just as his Title said, he was really a "Shredder"!
"My son!" Fafnir roared, suddenly opening his monstrous jaws, revealing an enormous squid-like beak from within the interior of his jaws, his actual appearance was quite terrifying.
"Got it!" I roared, opening my own jaws as well, and loading all the power I could to unleash a double breath attack!
BOOOOOMMMM!!!
"UNNGGH?!"
Boulder was quickly overpowered by our double breath attack, as his entire body was thrown away. Some of his spikes and scales were easily destroyed in the process.
BAAAM!
His entire body fell over a crater; however, he quickly began rolling again, flashing towards us faster than we could intercept him.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
And not only that, but I felt the piercing pain of several spikes piercing my back and infusing paralyzing venom into my muscles. The bastard of Iron was laughing behind my back.
"Gyehahaha… Don't lose focus on me, or you're going to pay for it, oh great Dragon King!"
"God damn bastard, I am going to beat that stupid face of yours until you can't smile anymore."
"Heh! Bring it on!"
CLAAASH!
