Chapter 369.2. Aguni Masatoshi’s Revelation

-Masatoshi’s POV-
No matter what, they scream without worrying about taking damage! 
Our battleship fires its main cannon. A beautiful beam, shining like a diamond, pierces and sinks the battleship, but there are too many, and we can’t defeat them all.
“Ngh!”
[Explosion]
A man with military air swings a large sword horizontally, and a blade is formed of energy flies. It might be appropriate to say it splits the sky; the light blade becomes enormous in flight, cuts through the battleship’s massive body as if it were paper, and splits it in two.
Others create a wall like a spider’s web with threads, slowing down movements, shooting arrows, swinging swords, and casting spells, each defeating battleships.
The battleships, however, are more powerful than us, even though we have powered up. We can create holes in them, tear apart their armor, and open holes with magic, but we can’t stop them from advancing.
They are becoming a hole for our allies. The members of the group show expressions of anxiety about this.
One battleship breaks through, a 100-meter-class. If it charges, none of us will be safe.
However, I have a trump card. There is a crystallization of the efforts I’ve made and the results of my hard work.
“Leave it to me! Haaaah!”
Inflating my nostrils, excited to make a scene, I knead the mana inside my body.
Witness the results of my training and doping!
Bracing my limbs, shouting with determination, I draw out the power I had hidden.
From the tips of my toes to the fingers of my hands. I circulate mana through every inch, activating it explosively.
An aura of crimson flames, as if exploding from my own body, blows out, transforming the scene into a victorious one.
With a relaxed gaze and a smirk on my face, I glance around at the reactions, presenting a dignified figure that would amaze everyone.
“Flame God Mode!”
Shouting the transformation mode for no apparent reason, the transformation is complete. My red hair flutters like flames, and my body is entirely red. The intense red aura rages, indicating an extraordinary power.
“This is my awakened form, [Flame God Mode].”
An original awakening mode that may surpass Shin’s [Golden Mode]. To dye the aura red, I poured 20% of all my energy into this secret technique. Since the golden aura is similar to Shin’s, I worked hard to make it distinct.
“Ooh, he became a pervert. He became a pervert!”
“Hen-shin. It’s a Henshin! If you put it that way, it’ll get misunderstood. Also, everyone, be more surprised!”
I retort with a pout at Tamamo’s impressed words but quickly regain my composure.
“Come on, Prism Crimson!”
Stretching out my hand horizontally, I give instructions to the flames of crystals flying in the sky. The crystal fragments gather in my outstretched hand, transforming into a beautiful great sword like a ruby.
“Whoa! Eat my [Flame God Inferno Sword]!”
“Isn’t the flame covering you, Masatoshi-san?”
Shouting, I hold the burning sword to the side and step forward. The battleship is right in front, and the collision is imminent.
With Sena-san’s encouragement at my back, I pour mana into the great sword.
“Feel the power of my [Flame God Crimson Blaze Sword], you insect!”
[Lover’s Dragon]
From the flame sword, a dragon formed of scorching lava is generated. Masatoshi pours mana into it, and its body swells to about 30 meters in size, charging towards the approaching battleships.
“Noooh!”
Gritting my teeth, face turning crimson, I shoot with determination. The lava dragon melts the battleships, and as it embeds itself halfway into the hull, I explode it. The battleship scatters and insect-like fragments of flesh fly around.
“D-did you see that?! Th-this is, cough cough, Masatoshi-sama’s cough cough.”
Due to exerting all my strength, fatigue overwhelms me, causing a fit of coughing. However, it seems that the battleship that slipped through was the last one for now. Defeating a 100-meter-class battleship individually—how strong am I? Despite coughing, I can’t help but grin.
Yamiyo and Fox Girl, don’t fall for me, okay? I’m already engaged, so please give up.
Taking a deep breath, I contemplate whether to defeat the surrounding small fries or go to help the gray-haired girl. I didn’t expect Kaguya to appear as such a villain, but I somehow had a hunch about something.
Just when I was about to inquire if everything was alright, something fell, denting the deck with a clang and collapsing.
“N-no, Kanna Tsuki?”
It was Kanna Tsuki, now in a tattered state. Covered in blood, her magic armor shattered, and I could no longer feel the power she had moments ago.
Following Kanna Tsuki’s sudden fall, the gray-haired girl descends from the sky. She doesn’t seem to have suffered any significant injuries, making her overwhelmingly superior.
As the gray-haired girl raises her sword to deliver the finishing blow, a revelation strikes me like a lightning bolt.
The final showdown. The clone bug with Shin’s face, the final boss, and the heroine Kanna Tsuki, who has shown herself in a completely transformed state as a prelude.
This is it! She got brainwashed! There’s no way such an adorable girl, like a little brother’s small animal, would be an enemy with that personality.
Hehehe, as a god, I’ve watched various novels and anime. No doubt about it!
It’s a cliche pattern to notice when the protagonist is brainwashed and rescues them.
And after saving them, I can confidently say that I am the protagonist. Sorry, Shin! Even Kanna Tsuki has fallen for me!
In front of the gray-haired girl, who seemed ready to swing down her sword at any moment, I spread my arms and jumped out.
“W-wait a minute. Hold on, gray-haired girl.”
Only a god like me could foresee this development. She’s definitely being manipulated!
“Look, Kanna Tsuki is the heroine, right? She must be under some kind of control. Isn’t it good enough around here? Let me help you.”
I try to stop the gray-haired girl with a serious expression, determined to show off my cool side.
