And as the storm gathered, the entire sky above Tokyo's Nerima Ward was swept by strange, violent winds.
If he had relied only on Doraemon's bamboo-copter, Lin Feng would probably have been blown away halfway up by this terrifying gale.
Fortunately, with Fūko and Xiao Hei—two wind spirits—guarding him from left and right, the winds around his immediate surroundings weren't nearly as violent.
Suspended in this environment of raging winds and torrential rain, with dark clouds blanketing the sky and blotting out the sun, Lin Feng felt a faint tension—yet his breathing remained as steady as ever, unchanged from normal.
Strictly speaking, this was his second time using the powers he obtained from the lottery.
The first was when Uranda broke into his home, trying to snatch Fūko away.
To resist Uranda's magic, Lin Feng had used Nichirin no Kokyū—the Breath of the Sun.
But that was just a personal fight.
And now, what Lin Feng was about to face… was a wind dragon stretching hundreds of meters long.
Just standing on the ground and looking up at its massive body would be enough to scare someone into fainting.
Let alone meeting such a colossal creature face-to-face in midair.
Although Lin Feng had already mentally prepared himself before coming up here, the sheer difference in size still pressed down on him like a suffocating force.
But after that brief tension faded, he felt his body gradually heating up—his temperature rising, his blood surging faster and faster through his veins.
And his rhythmic, measured breathing drew more oxygen into his bloodstream; that oxygen awakened every bone, every muscle, every nerve cell within him.
Floating in midair, Lin Feng tightened his grip on the Sealing Sword, his arm faintly trembling as he felt his physical strength steadily rise.
The previous fight with Uranda had been short, and back then Lin Feng had mostly displayed his superior speed.
He hadn't used any technique based on physical strength.
After all, Uranda had possessed Suneo's body. If Lin Feng really fought seriously, a single punch might have killed Suneo outright.
So last time, Lin Feng had only used restrictive techniques to force Uranda to stop using Suneo's body for evil.
But he didn't expect the guy, realizing he couldn't win, to simply abandon Suneo's body and run away.
That had caught Lin Feng off guard.
But now, things were different.
Facing this wind dragon hundreds of meters long, Lin Feng would likely have to unleash the most powerful technique he had ever used since obtaining the Breath of the Sun.
He could finally fight without holding back—finally unleash his full ability.Aside from tension, a faint sense of anticipation pulsed in his heart.
If he had to put that feeling into words…
It was like owning a peerless divine blade, yet using it every day only to chop carrots and peel potatoes.
And now, finally—there was a chance to let it display its true worth.
How could he not feel happy?
How could he not be thrilled?
How could he not be excited?
Yes—right now, Lin Feng felt joy, excitement, and exhilaration all at once.
And just as Lin Feng flew toward the wind monster Mafengka to confront it, Dr. Storm—who had originally planned to sit by and spectate—finally noticed him.
With the level of technology he possessed, he naturally looked down on Doraemon's outdated, discarded gadgets.
In the twenty-second century, something like a bamboo-copter was basically just a child's toy.
So when he saw Lin Feng flying into the sky with a bamboo-copter, planning to use nothing but a mortal body and a Sealing Sword to fight the wind monster Mafengka, Dr. Storm couldn't help but burst out laughing in the cockpit of the Time Cruiser.
"What is that guy doing? Is he serious?"
"Don't tell me he thinks that just because he has a Sealing Sword, he can fight a monster like that alone?"
"Don't make me laugh—how can anyone be that stupidly overconfident? Hahahaha…!"
Coming from a future era where people were used to relying on advanced technology for everything, Dr. Storm couldn't even imagine what Lin Feng was thinking—trying to block a hurricane with bare hands.
And honestly, even for the twenty-second century's technology, dealing with a wind monster like this would still be extremely troublesome.
Maybe not impossible, but definitely not easy.
So Dr. Storm had absolutely no intention of stepping in; to him, Lin Feng's attempt was nothing more than suicide.
Instead, he watched with the same attitude one would have when enjoying a spectacle.
As Lin Feng approached the wind monster Mafengka, the blood in his body began to boil, and a pure aura radiated from him—so pure that even Fūko and Xiao Hei were mesmerized by it.
"Lin Feng… going alone… will he really be okay?"
Fat Tiger stared at Lin Feng's distant figure in the sky, worry surfacing on his face.
What Lin Feng had said earlier had indeed made him feel safe and reassured.
But the enemy was a wind dragon hundreds of meters long.Even with the Sealing Sword, this wasn't something one could take lightly.
And in this storm, it already took everything they had just to stay standing on the ground—there was no way they could fly with bamboo-copters. They'd be blown away instantly.
"To be honest, I'm worried too… but I think what we should do even more is trust him."
Shizuka frowned as she looked into the distance.
She had spent the most time with Lin Feng, so she understood him better than anyone else here.
Lin Feng was calm, steady, and rational. Just like he himself had said—Shizuka had almost never seen him do anything he wasn't confident about.
If he decided to face Mafengka alone, it meant he had prepared for it—or had the confidence to confront it.
And more importantly, they all almost forgot something crucial—Lin Feng's origin.
To modern Japan, Huaxia was a mysterious land shrouded in legends and myths.
And in some respects, the world truly did contain phenomena and powers that science could not yet explain.
Even in the twenty-second century, such things still existed.
After all, humanity's understanding of the world… was still shallow.
