Jayr POV - Jayr's Soulbouory - 1007 ATF-SW

  I look at Kamina's figure as he lies sprawled on the ground with his katana beside him as he heavily huffs as he tries to recover his breath, at the same time he looks at me as I'm standing in the same spot when ht started without even breaking a sweat even after an hour of "intense" fight, and says, "Haa... What kind... Haa... of monster... Haa... are you!?"

  And with a wry smile on my face, I reply, "I'm someohat went through a form of training that is on the limit of self-torture from the young age of 5, to bee one of the stro warriors of my world with the duty to fight for justice, pead protect those I care for... You won't like to hear this but even if you use yurren you would still be easily defeated by me barehanded, in fact, even if you join forces with Simon and use the current Gurren Lagann, you still would be defeated..."

  Hearing that, Kamina's gaze turns serious, and asks, "Ae all this power, you are still wary of this Antispiral dude?"

  Hearing that I nod and say, "As I told you before, to deal with the Antispiral, we need enough power to destroy multiple Universes in one blow... and that isn't an easy feat. At my current power, I barely destroy a universe, and that only by using all my power in a purely destructive way... but multiple of them, well, I'm not strong enough for that yet..."

  After listening to my reply, Kamina fall silent ihought for a few minutes as he tio recover his breath, then he grabs his katana, does a quick kip up, and yells, "Very well! Let's do this one more time!" and once again he rushes toward me, this time, he is even faster than before, and as I parry and deflect his blows with my finger, I also notice that he is also getting stronger.

  Seeing this, I realize, 'Wow! Kamina is quickly reag the Silver Saint level, his attacks are being supersonic! Spiral Power is truly a bullshit form of energy!! As long as the willpower is strong enough there is basically no limit to its growth... under my guidand pressure, Kamina's strength is increasing at an eous pace... And the source of all this power is Kamina's will to proted pave the way for Simon and the others, his only limit is the quantity of Spiral that he produce. I have to admit that he is quite low... Especially when pared with Simon that seems able to pull out an absurd quantity of it!'

  But at the same time, I also realize his fws, 'Even so, Kamina is way too reckless not only in his as but also his fighting style. He leaves way too many openings... Time to fix this!' and so as I once again defleother of his reckless attacks, I quickly terattack by hitting him right on the nerve near his elbow with my finger causing him to yelp in pain and drop his sword in surprise.

  Kamina then shakes his numb right arm to try to shake off that annoying numb feeling that es right after the pain of being hit there and asks, "Ouch! What the hell was that!?" and with an evil smile, I reply, "The warm-up is over! Now every time you leave an opening for me, I will attack back... and with every mistake, the pain will increase."

  Hearing that, Kamina picks up his katana once more and rushes toward me while yelling, "You sick bastard! Take this!!" only to have his attack deflected once more and take another hit, this time on the left knee and so he falls on the ground with a numbed leg.

  And so our spar tinues for another hour before Kamina truly 't tinue anymore and decides to go back to the vil to rest.

  Once I remain alone iraining area, I look at the faux sky and seeing that it still simutes the light of the sun, I realize that I still have enough time to foy own training, and mutter, "Time to see if I use the theory behind the Spin from Jojo on the Spiral Power..."

  And quickly raise my hand and will my Spiral Power to appear in the form of a spinning ball, and in an instant, a small bright green spinning drill of energy appears above my open palm that quickly turns into a small spinning ball, and looking at it, I tio study it, "This is the most basi that the Spiral Power take... I shape it however I want, but its most natural state is that drill-like shape."

  As I look at the still spinning ball that at times spins faster and at time slower all under my trol, I also observe how the Spiral Power act as I let go of all the trol I have over spin, and a smirk forms on my face as I realize, "Yes! I trol the spinning speed! Moreover, the spinning speed doesn't increase naturally but remains stant to the level of willpower I used to produce it! This means my fear that the Spiral Power is in a natural state of perfect rotation is unfounded."

  Once I firmed that, I dissipate the bright spinning ball and say, "Well, that was the easiest hurdle I had to face... Now es the hard part... I have to somehow kick start a perfect rotation in my Spiral Power. But how exactly? Oh well, let's start with some visual support..."

  And after I said this, I move in front of a nearby boulder and use some basic Water Magic to gee a stro of water from my finger and start to engrave on the boulder the thing that will help in the part of my training, to visualize the perfect rotation and then trying to emute it.

  So I quickly engrave on the boulder the Goldeangle, a regle with a proportion equal to the golden ratio, approximately 16:9, that when recursively divided into a square and anoldearaces the path of the Golden Spiral, a self-simir and thus endless spiral, but I quickly stop and break the boulder as I made a mistake resulting in an image that isn't precise enough, and move to another boulder tain.

  After a few tries, many broken boulders, and some flowery curse that would make a sailor blush, I was finally able to engrave a precise Goldeangle, and a Golden Spiral as perfectly as possible, only I destroyed all the boulders in the area and was forced to engrave the image on the ground, of course before doing so, I leveled the terrain to make it as even as possible.

  Once I have the visual support ready, I focus my gaze on the engraved Goldeangle and the traced path of the Golden Spiral and try to imprint it into my mind, and at the same time, I will my Spiral Power to appear once more in the form of a small spinning spiral ball above my right hand.

  I feel that something is happening to the spiral ball, so I throw a gnd see that on the usual bright green ball of energy, there are now some traces of gold, but as soon as I focus on the ball and not on the Goldeahen Spiral Power in my hand goes out of trol and colpse on itself geing a strong shockwave that sends me flying toward the Spatial Barrier around the training area with such force that while spinning in mid-air, I cough out some blood, as I feel my internal ans rattle.

  On instinct, I maneuver my body in mid-air and use Telekinesis to stop my body from crashing against the Spatial Barrier, then nd on the ground in a croug position, and after a few seds, I get up and shake my head as I feel still a little dizzy from all that spinning, then a smile form on my face despite my failure.

  After a quick cast of Restoration Magic to fix the damage I received, I mutter with glee, "It is possible! It is possible to use the theory behind the Spin on the Spiral Power!" but then a frown forms on my face as I tio repy in my mind the se of my previous attempt, "But it is quite hard to do... Even with the visual support, I wasn't able to perfectly apply the Spin on Spiral Power and that resulted in an imbanced Spiral Power that needs stant focus to fun, and if the tration slips even for a moment, it instantly colpses on itself... It seems that I'll need a hell lot of practiake it work. But at least it is possible!"

  I onove in front of the Goldeangle engraved on the ground and focus on it, then I once again try to apply the Spin to the Spiral Power, but once more, my trol over Spiral Power slips, and this time I'm violently flung toward the sky crashing face first against the Spatial Barrier.

  Once I nd on the ground, I try to heal my wounded pride and mutter, "Damn, it is quite a wild horse, if I focus only on the Goldeangle and Golden Spiral, the Spiral Power powered by the imperfect Spin still goes out of trol and colpse..." then I quickly realize what is my mistake, and yell, "Stupid Jayr! You just gained your Spiral Power and didn't even master it then you want to add ahing that you just learned on top of it!? Basically, you barely know how to walk and you already want to do some parkour moves!? It's natural that you screw up, fail, a hurt!"

  After realizing my mistake, I stop and pn my moves, 'Now the first thing I have to do is master my Spiral Power as fast as possible, I have to reach the level that I unsciously use it and trol it without my active thought... At the same time, I have to practice the Spin but instead of using it on the Spiral Power, it is better to start first with some object... I 't rush this, I have to take it slow!'

  And while thinking that, I pick up some random rocks on the ground to use them to practice the Spin on them, at the same time, my thoughts tio wander, 'I feel that the Spin is fual to increasing my power, I'm sure it is the st ingredient I o fully merge all my energy sources into a single one as right now they are only tightly interected but they are still at the end separated, instead I feel that the right way is to use the Spin to enhahe Spiral Power even more and thehat power te it with my o and Magic Power turning it into a single powerful aile energy that I call my own with all the advantages of all my current ones and without the o switch between them. An energy that will be able to swallow and ie other energy sources if needed, so that the thing that happened when I came into this Universe won't happen again... And that will allow me to always be in my most powerful state...'

  And thinking about the potential of a new merged energy source, a frown form on my face as I think about one critical aspect, 'But if I'm successful, how should I his new energy? Simply Energy? No! That is way too bnd!! Culture Power? Nope! Logically, If the main pos are Magic, Spiral Power, and o, then new should be a bination of them like Magic Spiral o, or Mystical Spiral o, but I feel like it is a mouthful... Oh, well, the name will e when I successfully merge them...'

  I rid myself of all distrag thoughts and focus bay training, first by fully adapting my body to the Spiral Power, and turning my usage of it into an instinct as I have doh my o and Magic Power, and as I prepare to immerse my body in my Spiral Power I think, 'After this... I will fully focus on the Spin, where I'll try to gee a perfect rotation using these rocks I picked up until I'm able to casually do it without fog on the Goldeangle...'

  And after that that st thought, I empty my mind, and focus only on the Spiral Power c through my body and around me as I gee a small Spiral Power force field all around me in the form of a Spiral Ball.

  Lenome POV - Earth, Teppelin - 1007 ATF-SW

  Sitting on my thro the highest point of my gigantic castle the Teppelin, a rge drill-shaped fortress that breaks the cloud barrier that I proudly built in these 1000 years, surrounded by six of the beautiful members of my own harem, my owion, my toys, one of the few things that makes my grave and heavy duty of being the guardian of humanity somewhat lighter.

  I look down at the three "people" standing in front of me, my generals, as they tell me about the result of the test human uprising and ent, "Thymilph is dead, eh?" and my es reply at the same time, my toys say, ""Yes. The Dai-Gunzan was also taken from us.""

  And one of my generals, a young man with light green skin, shrey hair, and eyes, regally ents, "One of the Big Four let his guard down." he is the oh the most human-like appearance among all the generals, having a few refereo his aviaic makeup in his rooster crest and peacock feathers, he is ahe Swift the ander of Teppelin's aerial forces and owner of the flying battleship, the Dai-Gunten.

  [colpse]Followed by Guame the Immovable, the general that specializes in ground bat, who says, "There is a saying... When ered, even armadillos show their fangs." then he puffs out some of the smoke he inhaled from his pipe and adds, "It's , but it's something like that." his appearance is like that of a crocodile and armadillo and the oldest and stro among the fenerals.

  (Image Here - Guame)

  Spoiler

  [colpse]The reason for that is pretty simple, Guame is the pet that stood by my side sihe First Anti-Spiral War, at that time he was a simple armadillo but then towards the end of the Anti-Spiral War, he evolved himself to better serve me, after years of accumuting Spiral Power from me, that means that he is a naturally evolved Beastmen, and the only ohat is capable of using Spiral Power, ae the fact that his Spiral Power is pretty weak he is still league ahead of the rest of his fwed, inplete brethren.

  Hearing that Guame said, the st general replies, "What's that supposed to mean? Even if an armadillo bares its fangs, it still be crushed." she is the only female general among their numbers, Adiahe Elegant, she is almost pletely human in appearance, appearing as an attractive woman with blue hair, rge breasts, and a curvaceous body.

  Her long, thick, scorpion tail and snake-like eye are the only physical indications of her true nature.

  She wears ach over her left eye, with the straps coiling all the way around her body and down her leg, a loose-fitting dress, and heels.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]Hearing that she said, Guame let out another puff of smoke and says in a provoking tone, "You just' don't appreciate the ies of these things." but before this matter between them could escate, ander says, "You two! You're in the presence of the Spiral King."

  Then he looks at me and asks, "Your Majesty, please entrust the task of retrieving the Dai-Gunzan to me, ahe Swift." but quickly Adiaeps forward and says, "No, that task must be given to me. Thymilph was a ceous friend of mine. Please give me this opportunity to avenge him with my own hands. Your majesty!"

  Hearing that, a smile forms on my face as I think, 'Adiane is surely the ohat was hit the most by Thymilph's death... Their retionship was much closer than ordinary friends...' and amused by this, I decide to py with her and ask, "Ceous friend?" to which she replies while hiding the unease ione, "Yes. Our friendship went beyond the boundaries of gender."

  And quickly Guame once again provokes her saying with a perverted grin, "In other words, he wasn't enough of a man for you?" making Adiane quickly threaten him with her scorpion tail, "Silence, freak." then grown bored of this, I chose to stop this fard say, "I made all of you. Do you think I don't know what goes oween you? Very well. You may go, Adiane."

  Hearing that, Adiane bows and says, "Thank you very much. I, Adiahe Elegant, will make those human scum feel the power and terror of the Spiral King." after that, she disappears in a whirlpool of water that transported her back to her quarters.

  Soon after Adia away, I notice the frown on ander, and curious I ask, "Are you displeased, ander?"

  He bows and decres, "The Spiral King is the creator and ruler of everything in this world. In my heart, there is not the slightest disobedieo your judgment."

  Hearing that, and weary about all this pointless stuff, I say, "Then leave." he plies and disappears from here with a small gust of wind, leaving me aloh Guame, who disappears quickly after with a crumblih sound.

  After they are gohe floor on the ground turns into a s showihe images of the inside of my castle, but all I see are tless interected metal pilrs funing as the resideny creations, but also as factories where Gunmen and their equipment are produced or the bs where I create new Beastmen, at the same time, I get up from my throne and start to randomly walk as I wearily think back to all the human uprising I stopped as I protected them from an even worse fate, one of the few amusement of this despicable life of mine and mutter, "They search fht, even though they know death awaits them. It's hopeless. Yet it's the nature of human beings".

  Jayr POV - Earth, Gekion - 1007 AFA-SW

  A week passed sihe battle between, the eastern Human Eradication Army led by Thymilph, and nothing new or worthy of note happened sihen.

  I tio train Kamina in the use of Spiral Power and bat teiques, and he is improving a lot on both of them, but despise that, his pure raw power somewhat stalled, and if I have to rate his strength, I would say that he is about as strong as a weak Silver Saint.

  With the support of his Spiral Power, he move and attack at supersonic speed, but he only output enough power t down a big building, still sidering that he is a normal base human, that is still a lot of improvement, in fact, I'm sure that he ow destroy a Gozu without piloting a Gurren using only his body and katana.

  Oher hand, my own progress is very satisfying, after many hours of gruesome training, I finally gained full trol over that wild horse that is the Spiral Power, what helped me is the fact that despite their different nature, the Spiral Power has many points in on with o, both are a fual aspect of their own Universe, both are intrinsically ected to the aspects of life, and both are able to produce limitless energy, but while the o is a full-on explosion of energy that appears in an instant, the Spiral Power is a stant expoial increase of energy that keeps getting stronger without limits.

  On the Spin front, I also gained some progress, I ow produce a near-perfect rotation without using the visual support of the Goldea least not the one engraved iraining area of my Soulbouory, as after a week of stant staring at it, the image of the Goldeangle imprinted into my mind.

  But despite this, I'm still uo perfectly merge the Spin with Spiral Power, but at least, now Spin enhanced Spiral Power doesn't colpse on itself sending me flying into the stratosphere, and the green with golden traces of Spiral Power produced by this imperfeion is already a lot strohan the usual Spiral Power because it enables me to produce more energy with way less cost than before, but still, I decided that I won't use it until I fully merge the Spin with the Spiral Power for one simple reason, I don't want to make the Antispiral notice me and force his eventual early attack.

  I'm right now outside my Soulbouory, keeping an eye on the Dai-Gurren Brigade from the distance, and well, it isn't a beautiful sight, not only did the raiher that persisted throughout the week affects the overall mood of the Dai-Gurren's crew, but many of them are still strongly affected by Kamina's "death", the most obvious are of course Simon and Yoko, one because he lost what he basically sidered his st remaining family member, while the other because she lost the person she loved.

  Add to all that the fact that they are still stantly attacked by the Beastmen of the Human Eradication Army, that the newly acquired Dai-Gurren still doesn't work properly yet, and that Simon's Spiral Power is growing more and more unstable with each passing day and the picture of the situation in front of me bee even bleaker.

  Sensing the members of the Dai-Gurren Brigade as they gh their motion with suorale, I 't help but think in relief, 'Luckily I prevented Kamina from ing with me using the excuse that in Cratergann there is only enough spae and that he o train more if he wants to make an awesome impression when he will reuh Simon and the others... Because for sure he wouldn't be able to stop himself fr to fix this depressingly soul-crushing mood... And especially seeing Simon's current state, that seems almost that of a hollow husk that lost its heart whose sole purpose is to destroy the ehat killed his dear Aniki...'

  While thinking that, I also take a closer look at the former Dai-Gunzan, the newly named Dai-Gurren, which was remodeled to aodate the Dai-Gurren Brigade members.

  The walking battleship is still mostly the same, hundreds of times rger than ventional Gunmen, it still has the numerous heavy artillery gun turrets and heavy armor, with the arms attached to the trol tower that serves as the hangar bay unchers for its housed Gunmen, but now sports a red color scheme and a different tower on the head as the inal was destroyed when Simon took trol of it using Lagann.

  Spoiler

  [colpse]As I'm studying the ges that the Dai-Gurrehrough, I sehe presence of anroup of Beastmen quickly approag them, and soon, they appear in front of the still Dai-Gurren, and I see that it is a group of 6 Gunmen of the Human Eradication Army.

  The Beastmen's Guhen advaoward the Dai-Gurren, and at the same time, from it, the Gurren Lagann jumps out and starts to fiercely attack them.

  Under Simon's trol and fury, the Gurren Lagann attacks the enemy Gunmen with a ferocity akin to a wild beast, as it wildly punches and kicks them with reckless abandon.

  At the same time, I 't help but notice the strange behavior of Simon's Spiral Power, as it gushes out from the Gurren Lagann's neck area as Simon tinues with his furious assault as the Gurren Lagann stomps tinuously on an enemy on the ground, and sensing further, I notice that Simon's Spiral Power is actually starting to csh against itself as ter-currents start to form in both Simon's body and into the Gurren Lagann.
