As the two continued to fight, the Panther was simply in a bind, wondering how these two could actually work together so well when trying to kill him but had these petty arguments while in a fight.
"I'm going to show you that I'm better than you." The God of Strength snorted and flew to a nearby asteroid before kicking it like a soccer ball despite how big it was.
"!!!" The Panther widened his eyes and decided to move toward the God of Greed, so even if he were hit by this asteroid, the God of Strength would've hit the God of Greed too.
However, the latter just showed him something different, especially when his body was surrounded by an energy that surely wasn't his.
It was then the Panther knew whose energy it was, only to get punched on his face, blowing him away. At the same time, the God of Greed stopped the asteroid with one hand and threw it toward the Panther, spinning. "You take this. It's a special fastball with good spin."
"Why are you treating this as a sport, dumbass?" The God of Strength narrowed his eyes.
"What do you mean by dumbass? I'm the smartass here, you're the dumbass."
"So, you're admitting that you act like an as*hole here?" The God of Strength just got the point before saying, "Anyway, you borrowed that strength from me earlier."
"…" The God of Greed became angrier and changed his weapon into a sniper rifle. "This is my Greed Law. Since you're so useless, I will just end this myself."
The sniper rifle released a bullet that seemed to be more powerful than the bullet earlier, flying toward the Panther at fast speed.
The Panther tried to dodge this one and somehow managed to succeed, but he found that the explosion was one hundred times bigger, obliterating the asteroid in one strike.
"Tch. I just wasted a bullet. Oi! This bullet is a fully concentrated Spirit Crystals containing one Billion Spirit Crystals. Your life alone won't be enough to pay for this bullet." The God of Greed complained again.
Meanwhile, the Panther felt like a sh*t, wondering, 'What the heck with these two people? They kept talking and arguing in this entire battle, yet, how can they be this strong? They even cooperated with each other a few times.
'Is this Universe that good?' The Panther gritted his teeth, not wanting to believe that God Kings were this strong. They had the power of Parasite and he had devoured all those strong genes that his mother gave him as nutrition and turned him into a powerful Panther.
He didn't like to see anyone getting stronger than him, especially since it was the God of Strength and the God of Greed. He released another power that had been hiding inside him as his body began to be covered with a black aura.
"I've had enough." The Panther finally turned into a real one that walked on its four feet.
Unfortunately for him, the two still couldn't take it seriously as the God of Strength kept treating him like it wasn't a big deal. "Look. Due to your continuous rumbling, he changes into a full-fledged panther. Don't you feel sorry for him?"
"He's an enemy. And you're the one louder." The God of Greed shrugged.
The God of Strength sighed and gathered his power in one fist before punching the nothing while spinning that hand to create a torrential force out of nothing. "Spinning Power Fist."
The Panther saw this and started going zig zag to avoid getting hit by that torrential energy.
Seeing that the Panther was about to reach him, the God of Strength raised his hand again, preparing for another punch, but found someone appeared right behind him and used his body as a cover.
He then rested his sniper rifle on his shoulder and shot the Panther.
Boom.
Surprisingly, a loud explosion shook the battlefield as the Panther got blown away. Yet, if one took another look at the situation, the blast wasn't that powerful compared to what the God of Greed had shown him.
Only him and the God of Strength actually understood what happened. The God of Greed truly had the audacity to use the gap below his crotch to hide a pistol to hit that Panther. The God of Strength gritted his teeth and roared. "Are you freaking serious? Do you want to turn me into waste?"
"Yes. Why do you even ask?" The God of Greed admitted without hesitation.
"I'm going to die if I become a waste! I'm going to kill you first!"
"What? You die? That's bad then. I need to get all of your money first before you die. And if you don't have a foolish son or daughter, I can't extort or play with them to get their money. I need to reconsider my plan." The God of Greed sighed his head in disappointment as if he truly thought about it.
The God of Strength was completely stunned by his remark before noticing that the Panther seemed to be far more frustrated than they thought he would, especially since the Panther actually chose to escape to another battlefield instead of fighting them.
The God of Greed obviously used his Teleportation Array Plate and chased him.
"Don't you run! You're my money bag." The God of Greed shouted and summoned two pistols, starting to shoot him uncontrollably. As one would expect, the cost of the bullet went down, so he wasn't as remorseful as before, even though he still thought it was a shame.
The God of Strength also chased him from behind since his partner kept the Panther's movement in check. He then raised his hand and sent another punch that created torrential energy.
"Ha!"
The Panther gritted his teeth and swung his paw, sending crescent-shaped energy that cut through the torrential energy. He then charged straight toward the God of Strength since he needed to kill this guy first before even getting a chance to reach the God of Greed because, for whatever reason, this guy seemed to be protecting him.
"Die!" The Panther released all of his energy into his paw to hit him.
Even the God of Strength found this attack too powerful for him to handle physically, so he also gathered all the energy in his hand before finding a metal glove floating on top of his head.
It was none other than the assistance coming from the God of Greed to him, so his hand slid into the glove and clashed with that paw.
"Purgatory Swipe."
"Absolute Strength."
The two collided and created a powerful shockwave. It didn't stop there. Even the God of Greed decided to stay silent when he saw the God of Strength break his own wrist after stopping that attack. The Panther had the same condition. He simply couldn't use that paw again.
The God of Strength didn't care about this and grabbed the useless paw, locking it on his useless arm. Without the ability to escape, the God of Strength punched the Panther with his other hand.
The Panther also found himself in a bind and tried to escape by punching the God of Strength, only to find that his strength wasn't enough to compete with the God of Strength.
He was simply a beast and didn't care about his injury while punching him continuously without a stop. The Panther spat a mouthful of blood and injured him as well, but their situation began to get worse when the God of Greed, who had been waiting for an opportunity, released his shot.
"!!!" The Panther and the God of Strength widened his eyes as the bullet hit the Panther's head and blew them up altogether.
Boom.
No one would expect the God of Greed to actually use this opportunity to attack both of them. One would think he did it to kill them, but the God of Strength's voice soon resounded within the smoke, complaining, "Seriously. What the heck are you trying to do?"
"Killing the Panther!" The God of Greed shrugged as if he didn't do anything wrong. "I even lent you that glove that was capable of blocking one fire attack such as my powerful bullet."
The latter clicked his tongue and realized it was the case. He waved his hand to the side to blow the smoke away from him, revealing the Panther's condition. What hit them earlier was the explosion of the most expensive bullet the God of Greed had.
"Now you need to pay me back. The cost of the glove is twenty Billion Spirit Crystals. The bullet I used was ten billion. I won't ask for the others."
"You're more shameless than I thought…" The God of Strength shook his head helplessly and looked at the Panther. Half of his body just got obliterated due to the explosion as the person himself glared at the God of Strength, telling him something.
Obviously, he understood the words without even saying them. The Panther truly wanted to ask him how he could fight this strong without being serious, especially in the argument part. If he fought the Panther seriously, he would've killed him the same since the Panther was among the weakest bunch.
The God of Strength snorted and said, "I'm serious in fighting you. It's just that guy who can't shut up. My hand is messed up and the other hand is numb. There are external and internal injuries all over my body because of your attack. I think he is the same."
The God of Greed crossed his hands and harrumphed. "I'm lamenting over the fact that my wealth has decreased so fast. I've lost fifteen billion Spirit Crystals in one fight. I better make more money after this war. Well, I've been stealing your power to weaken you, so that's why this muscle brain can defeat you. What the heck with the claim of the Strongest Person alive? Your strength can't even kill this guy."
"…" The God of Strength snapped again as the two started arguing over little things again.
