Meanwhile, his mind tells him as he gazes forward, that Chou has destroyed many spheres via his forty blades and Asha'rah has done well in keeping the ones on the outskirts away from herself and those around her using her own spheres. Even Slak's ki enforced rock manages to damage several as Meagan's disc smashes even more.
More and more fall, and Jinzi watches, seeing Ochazuke and Karine both readying their own attacks as Kai attempts to plan their next steps and Ishtar moves forward, body hardening, to join the fray. Just as his spheres begin really going, four things happen at once:
Meagan's ki blasts distract him ever long enough that Koorimaru's back attack half hits, sending Jinzi reeling to the ground, clutching his shoulder. Looking up, his eyes widen as Charco's blasts feeds through his spheres towards himself AND, high above like a bird, Zaofan unleashes a wide angle optic blast.
He reacts, and the world goes white around him as an epic explosion tears through the arena. The wind and dust and dirt kicked up stop even Adam and those fighting him as Jinzi, Held, Sasheem, Jack, Totoma, and Ishtar are encapsulated by the twin ki attacks. When the smoke and dust settle, a crater stands where Jinzi once was. Totoma, Held, and Jack are both laying on the ground, conscious but hurt and banged up. Ishtar, her body hardened, is a bit burnt around the edges but is still standing somewhat. Sasheem is fine, though his body looks like a flattish pancake now and is stretched across twenty feet on the edge of the crater. His toilet is also cracked somewhat.
As for Jinzi...............
He is laying on his back, looking up at the artificial sky as he smiles. All his spheres are gone, and the patch on his neck crumbles away. After a moment, so to does Jinzi.
Clapping fills the air as Jinzi walks up from the forest, smiling, completely unharmed.
"Well done, you defeated my simulacrum. I think that's a good stop for the night, don't you? Adam, I think that's enough for now. Come over here and greet the group properly, please."
