Still, there was some distance between him and Soul Devourer. Before the latter could reach him, Nathan hurriedly shot Bell Crusher while his left hand sent forth a claw strike.
Bell Crusher raised his bell forward, but the Absolute Force actually made a huge dent and almost destroyed the bell.
The bell smashed onto him and hit him pretty hard. Bell felt like his body was being crushed, but fortunately, the black cell intervened again.
On the other hand, Reaper had a much easier time. Due to Nathan focusing his power on his pistol, he managed to strike the claw strike together with his familiars, allowing him to block it completely.
Besides, the claw strike wasn't as strong as the Absolute Force, so it was understandable.
Still, both Bell and Reaper knew one thing. Nathan was much stronger than they originally thought. It would have been good if Soul Eater had been helping them, but it didn't seem possible with Regina and Vivian stopping him.
