The Martial Unity

However, while his Martial Mind prototype was more elementary compared to what Rui was accustomed to himself, it was not necessarily wrong.

Rui did indeed have a time limit.

He also could not neutralize Senior Zenshin's approach. Even if he could, he would certainly waste more energy trying since it took more energy to generate an attack of a certain power level compared to that of close-range attacks.

However, the most impressive part of the plan was not the plan, but the raw physicality that supported the plan.

THWOOM THWOOM THWOOM THWOOM THWOOM!

Senior Zenshin dedicated more energy towards neutralizing Rui's enhanced raw power than he did towards progressing towards Rui. He prioritized his health over closing the distance. It was because he knew that he would gain his chance at closing the distance that he was willing to remain patient.

This was not pleasant to Rui.

'I'm blasting him with the power of Hypertrophic Surge, but the only thing I'm able to do is stop his approach. He's defending every single attack extremely well!' Rui gritted his teeth.

This was the first time that he had used Hypertrophic Surge and failed to hurt his opponent despite it. It was such an absurd notion that Rui had difficulty believing it for a second. In fact, he had hurt Senior Zenshin only a single time this entire fight, when he caught him off-guard with the transformation.
