A stare down of approximately five seconds occurred between both Kings, and in that period of five seconds, both armies of the kings ran towards each other and a much fiercer clash occurred between both armies.

Previously, the undead army were at a disadvantage due to the higher numbers of the androids, but with the newly added Undead, the undead army had better odds of winning. Though,

That was only in the case of the undead mobs and android mobs.

Despite the resurrection and increase of the undead army, the undead giant and the two undead birds still could not defeat their counterparts.

Although majority of the audience's attention was entirely on the undead giant's fight during the previous fight, Triple X's focus was not only the undead giant.

He watched how his undead birds got badly injured in their clash against other flight type androids despite their obvious superiority.

Just like his undead giant, his undead birds also got beaten due to the higher number of opponents they had to face. So despite the increased odds of winning for his undead mobs, Triple X knew he had to personally take action to end the battle once and for all.

He released a soft sigh, then he turned his neck to the left, causing a soft cracking sound to resound in the surroundings.

Despite the chaos and battle occurring around him, he looked around with a calm expression, then he took a few steps forward and bent.

"This should do."

Triple X mumbled as he swung a sword repeatedly before he then gazed at the figure of Automaton high up in the air.

Sigh

Once again, he released another frustrated sigh before mumbling the words:

"What a chore."

Bang

The ground cracked apart as Triple X jumped and flew towards Automaton like a rocket.

Automaton frowned slightly seeing the rapidly approaching King of the Dead. He stretched out both of his arms, and a second later, his right arm transformed to a dark silver sword, and his left arm transformed to a dark silver shield. And as this was occurring, a flicker of confusion appeared in his eyes as he gazed at Triple X.

A few seconds later, Triple X got into a suitable distance to unleash a slash at Automaton and without hesitation, he slashed his sword at Automaton, and Automaton who was about to block the sword slash with his sword, frowned as he noticed something appear on the sword as it was swung towards him.

He quickly placed his left hand which had transformed into a shield in front of him, and a second later, a loud clanging sound resounded.

Automaton's eyes widened as he the power behind the strike almost sent him stumbling backwards, but a second later, a rumbling sound akin to that of an engine resounded from his body, and he successfully withstood the strike.

Crack

Just as he was about to release an internal breath of relief, a cracking sound flowed into his ears and to his immense shock, he glanced at his shield which now had a minute crack which was also expanding as the seconds went by.

'How is that possible?!'

Automaton had a look of disbelief as he stared at the expanding crack on his shield/left arm. But a fraction of a second later, literal alarm bells rang in Automaton's mind.

In the blink of an eye, a mini jet engine appeared from Triple X's back and the moment it appeared, a stream of fire appeared from the afterburner which caused Automaton to instantly accelerate up into the air.

Triple X had a deep frown on his face as he glanced at the empty space in front of his left hand which had eccentric black lines all over it.

"Almost had him."

Triple X mumbled then he released another frustrated sigh as he turned his gaze towards Automaton who had an extremely deep frown.

'So this is why he had the confidence to attack me with a low level weapon like that.'

Triple X had this thought as he looked at the changed sword in Triple X hand. Previously, the sword had the appearance of a normal sword, but currently, the sword had black lines all over it. And as Automaton gazed at the black lines on the sword, he realized they bore a striking resemblance to the black lines from the Hand of Death.

Ever since Triple X picked up the sword, Automaton had been confused since from a glance of his, he knew that the sword could never cause any sort of harm to his body which was made up of an extremely hard metal he knew not much of.

The metal was one of the hardest material he had ever encountered, and it was also one of his most precious treasures, if not his most precious treasure.

He gazed at his shield/left hand which had tiny black lines on it. As the black lines on his left hand/shield increased, the number of cracks on his shield/left hand increased.

Seeing the striking resemblance of the tiny black lines to the black lines from the hand of death, Automaton had a bad feeling and without hesitation, he tore off his left arm entirely.

He spread out his right hand and a perfect replica of his left arm appeared in his right hand, but just as he was about to attach it to his right hand, alarm bells rang in his mind once again.

A roaring sound resounded from the mini jet engine and in an instant, Automaton moved to the left at an extremely fast speed.

As he moved, he attached the replica of his left hand to his shoulder, and as he did that, he looked at Triple X but to his surprise, he saw Triple X in the same location as before.

'What?'

A baffled expression appeared on the face of Automaton as he wondered why he felt danger approaching him.

But a second later, he got his answer.

Screech

With blood dripping from his lips, Automaton had a shocked light in his eyes as his gaze fell towards his chest which had a sword pierced through it.

His gaze then shifted from the sword to his back where he saw a translucent figure which bore a striking resemblance to The King of the Dead.

Once again, a baffled light appeared in his eyes seeing the translucent figure and he removed his gaze from the translucent figure to Triple X.

'How?'

As this thought went through Automaton's mind, the light in his eyes dimmed until it eventually went off and his body fell towards the ground.

As Triple X watched Automaton's body fall unto the ground, he released a bored sigh and with a disappointed tone, he spoke:

"What a disgusting match."
