Superman Termination Manual-Chapter 451 - 237: The Battle of Octopus Man X Birthday Party (Part 3)

Amid the splatter of blood like spilled ink, Octopus Man’s pupils constricted, and then he used his remaining four tentacles to fiercely push off the wall, relying on the recoil to land on the ground.

"Hiss—!"

Octopus Man nearly collapsed to the ground, his legs wrapped in airflow scraping against the metal floor and producing sparks, along with a piercing screeching noise.

At the same time, those two tentacles that had been severed by the light sword pinched by Blue Owl’s two fingers were also falling to the ground along with his figure.

Accompanied by a "plop" sound, the two severed tentacles hit the ground. Then, like ski poles swept across ice, they slid horizontally for several meters.

The deep red tentacle fragments scattered all around like a downpour, with the following blood dyeing the silver-white floor red.

Octopus Man knelt on the ground, slightly bent at the waist, supporting himself with one hand on the floor. He raised his eyes, gazing at the severed tentacles that had been cut from his body like severed limbs, sweat dripping from his forehead.

His disheveled hair stood on end as he gasped for breath like a cat with its hackles raised, his chest heaving violently.

"He chopped off... my two tentacles?"

Octopus Man furrowed his brow, gazing at Blue Owl in the distance, murmuring in disbelief.

Luckily, he was a mutant, so even if his tentacles were cut off, he would grow them back after a short rest; otherwise, he could not have sustained such an injury. But for the tentacles to grow back, he would have to wait for several hours. That meant, for the remaining time in this fight, he could only rely on his four remaining tentacles to battle.

Octopus Man thought back on the earlier scene with lingering fear.

In that instant, it was as if he had narrowly escaped death. He didn’t know if it was Blue Owl holding back or if he had just narrowly missed the golden glow of the light sword. In any case, the fierce sword wind had nearly grazed his cheek, leaving a gash on his face. Blood traced down along the wound onto his half-red face.

Above in the commentator’s booth, Mikaxi slightly startled at the scene before lifting her face, her expression showing a feverish excitement.

She brought the microphone closer to her lips, shouting belatedly.

"Wow! What just happened?! Blue Owl in an instant severed Octopus Man’s two tentacles! You should know that Octopus Man’s tentacles are famous for their flexibility. On Huanjing Ka Yinmo Street, during the infamous battle where he faced a villainous Whirlwind Fighter who had taken down several dojos, the Whirlwind Fist pridefully unleashed it on Octopus Man’s tentacles, but they remained unscathed. And now Blue Owl has instantly cut off his tentacles, the speed was so fast I nearly couldn’t see it!"

As her voice fell, the camera focused on Octopus Man’s blood-red half-face, and the two giant tentacles lying on the ground, still twitching slightly, were also captured in the frame.

A murmur spread through the audience.

The superheroes present, even the weakest among them, were superhumans with a certain level of combat experience and could discern the difference in strength between Octopus Man and Blue Owl.

Seeing Blue Owl caught by the suction cups of the tentacles, they had initially thought the fight was already decided, but to their surprise, Blue Owl had deliberately allowed it, even turning defense into offense, using Octopus Man’s pulling force against him.

Watching this unfold, Che Zhengchen felt slightly surprised, then curled his lips into a smile, speaking to the crow on his shoulder, "See that? The kid still has potential."

The crow made no response, its crimson eyes reflecting the figures of Octopus Man and Blue Owl.

At this moment, Octopus Man took a deep breath and spoke:

"It’s useless, your superpower can be used only once in a short period. I’ve watched many of your fight videos, and since that strike didn’t finish me, you have already lost any chance of winning."

Blue Owl, with hands on his hips, cocked his head, his beak tilting, "Oh-oh-oh, you’re still talking big even now, befitting our Comrade Octopus Man..."

Speaking, he paused slightly, "If I had moved a bit further, your head would have been on the ground. Understand?"

Octopus Man frowned, "Funny, why didn’t you do that, are you looking down on me?"

"Because I wanted to keep playing with you," Blue Owl teased, "Besides, I couldn’t really chop off your head. See the crow on Commander Che Zhengchen’s shoulder? It would have stopped me before I could cut off your head."

"Qing Ya is here too?" Octopus Man said with a tone of surprise.

"Yes, I only just noticed," Blue Owl replied, glancing at the crow in the audience with the corner of his eye.

"You seem proud, but it’s useless, you still can’t beat me."

Saying so, Octopus Man adjusted his breath while slowly walking toward Blue Owl, the four deep red tentacles behind him spreading open like the petals of a Venus flytrap.

Octopus Man knew that as long as there were no other people around them, Blue Owl could not use that positional switch superpower to get close to him.

With that thought, since that spinning arm superpower couldn’t be used again for a while, and the positional switch was restricted, all that was left for Blue Owl was the "Fire Fist" move.

But it was of no use.

With his remaining four tentacles, even if Blue Owl threw a hundred fists like that, he couldn’t harm his actual body.

"Giving up the struggle? Why are you standing still?"

As Octopus Man spoke, he raised the back of his hand to wipe the fresh blood from his cheek. But before he finished, the next instant, Blue Owl’s figure vanished from the spot.
