Yamoshi is pummeled by the deadliest paper cuts this side of Kartana. The whirlwind of pages drives him to his knees. The pain briefly snaps him out of his rage. He realizes just in time that more missiles are headed right for them.
Rein it in... control it... master it!
His wild aura subsides, replaced by a soft crimson glow. Though not fully transformed into a Super Saiyan God, he has tapped into the peace and clarity required to subdue his monstrous instincts. With this, he flies straight into the missiles, using an energy barrier to stop both. Their combined force breaks his barrier and launches him into the same building all over again, but at least the people inside it are safe.
The ancient Saiyan groans as he pulls himself off the wall. "That machine... Hmph. I'm impressed humans could build something so powerful."
He creates a sphere of energy in front of himself, then punches the orb, launching a beam of light at the Scopedog. This will deal substantial, but survivable damage.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."The author glances at the fighters from a safe distance, getting inspiration for another book of his. The way those weirdoes fight reminds him of the Tenkaichi Budokai, that martial arts tournament broadcasted on sports stations occasionally. Maybe he should write something about them?
Back with Marcia, she's busy praying to Madoka for further blessings. How on Earth did she get so lucky with that Saiyan somehow blocking those missiles aimed at the apartment?!
-The pilot, again, instinctively blocks the beam with the AT's left arm, only for it to punch right through the exposed internals and searing the helmet's outer armor. It could have been worse; without the water damage the beam would have detonated all of the ammunition stored in the arm, but if it wasn't blocked it would have penetrated through the AT's helmet — and take the pilot's head off with it-
-With the left arm mangled beyond repair, the Scopedog is forced to return fire by firing the heavy machine gun one-handed, slowly stepping backwards to control the recoil. This is supplemented by saturation fire courtesy of the hip-mounted minigun. Most shots will miss, sure, but the sheer volume of bullets ensure that some will hit-

Nothing seems to have changed. But perhaps one day it will.The machine gun fire takes chunks out of Yamoshi's armor. A stray bullet even rips out a piece of his cheek, but he manages to withstand or evade sufficiently to stay alive.
He stops to glower at Marcia. What's she been doing while he's been risking his life?
Regardless, he creates another barrier of energy to protect himself from the Scopedog's next attack.
"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."-Considering the AT's state and the enemies' strength, the pilot comes to one conclusion: an all-out assault-
-First, the Scopedog fires the heavy machine gun and minigun as before until both are empty, while skating down the street using the Jet Rollers. This is to ensure both targets stay in the kill zone-
-Then it deploys two consecutive smokescreens from the shoulder-mounted mortars, spaced about a dozen meters apart. As soon as the AT breaks through the first smokescreen, it fires the remaining five missiles in dumbfire mode. Only three are aimed directly into the Saiyan, with the other two spread around to maximize damage from shrapnel, potentially catching him if he tries to dodge-
-And for the finishing touch: tossing the spent rifle away as it emerges from the second smokescreen, the pilot swerves into a full spin for a Jet-boosted Arm Punch. To any martial artist, this is nothing more than a spinning haymaker, but between the Scopedog's mass, its inertia, and the fact that the arm has a cartridge-based mechanism to amplify punches, it carries enough force to pulverize any other AT — never mind a human-sized target-

Nothing seems to have changed. But perhaps one day it will.Marcia simply smiles at the ancient Saiyan upon seeing that glower. "Oopsy doosy..."
Poor Marcia is bombarded by being in proximity of the Scopedog. The pain the poor girl must've felt is unbearable. She will not falter in this case.
Marcia's badly battered as hell, yet her costume looks like it came out of dry cleaning. In retaliation, Marcia summons a thunderstorm and tries to fry the Scopedog.
The writer's now trying to evacuate his apartment. He knows that shit's going down for real.
Yamoshi's barrier withstands the gunfire, though not the additional missiles. As he goes reeling once again, shrapnel digging into his chest, his concentration slips.
"GYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGH"
His energy erupts from his body, dulling the impact of the punch to a survivable degree - at the cost of his sanity. The Legendary Super Saiyan has awoken.
He still gets sent flying into the street, leaving a scar in the ground, but he immediately flies out and lets loose a furious barrage of punches, aiming to puncture the Scopedog's head with his fists and rip it open to expose the pilot. His own blood trails behind him like a red mix into his virulent green energy. He's taking damage, just ignoring his own injuries. Maybe, with just a little more, they can still beat him... assuming they get the chance to hit him again.

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."-Looks like the pilot burned all of their luck in that one attack-
-Seeing the Saiyan darts right into his unit, the pilot reflexively pulls the trigger — only to hear a dull click. There is no ammunition left. No bullets, no missiles, nothing. Though there are some spare cartridges for the Arm Punch, so maybe—-
-Nope. Yamaoshi's rush sends the Scopedog reeling backwards, each blow smashing in more and more of the AT's helmet. First the lens unit, then the protective visor, and finally the underlying armor — where he finds the pilot taking aim with a handgun-
-It is at this point that the thunderstorm strikes the AT, specifically through the pilot's sidearm. High-voltage currents fry their body in a flash along with the Scopedog's internals. The machine staggers backwards and falls, leaving a scent of burnt gunpowder and charred flesh-
-This kills the robot-
Nothing seems to have changed. But perhaps one day it will.Fortunately, perhaps in some final twist of fate, Yamoshi is also electrocuted due to gripping the Scopedog's head when the lightning strikes, shocking him back to his base form, and he falls with the collapsing robot, crashing into the back of the cockpit for a double kill.
Victory goes to Marcia... but at what cost?
hope you had fun

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."I enter the arena in a Dynamic Entry, strong enough to cause a crack within a radius of 1 meter.
"Peace for everyone! And I can and will survive anything you throw at me, even attacks to the groin! If you want to beat me, you gotta entertain me first!"
Except, I'm fighting one-on-two against the two guys above me, putting me at a numbers disadvantage. The numbers game won't in my favor this time.

Matikane Tannhäuser, now departing for the front line! Ei, ei, mun!"Tough guy are, ya?" I wonder, crossing my eyes and raising my eyebrow at the newcomers. "So I'm guessing this is an arena of some sort? But what do you mean one-on-two? Can you see-"
Just then, Ryota walks up from behind me.
"Hey Lux!!! You're here too! I was freaking out, getting lost in this place, these buildings are like a maze!! Who's this guy?"
He takes a lick from his lollipop, which he always has on him.

Matikane Tannhäuser, now departing for the front line! Ei, ei, mun!

-The pilot planned to buy more time by shooting the thrown (but fully-loaded) HMG with the Scopedog's still-functioning arm-mounted machine gun, thereby creating a diversionary explosion, but Yamoshi's sudden attack made the idea unnecessary-
-Instead the AT shuffles to pick up the gun. Upon confirming that (most) systems are working at acceptable degree, the pilot fires two high-explosive rockets from the torso launchers into the apartment-
Nothing seems to have changed. But perhaps one day it will.
