The second step brought him right to Ieyasu.

He turned back, looking at the island that he had already left well behind in the distance. In just a matter of seconds, he had traveled dozens of kilometers.

'Incredible...' He couldn't help but marvel at the power of the Martial Heart before deactivating and turning towards Ieyasu.
