Yes, everyone had their weaknesses!
Ikki knew Tsukasa had a weakness, and he would use it to achieve his victory!
"Shinkirou!"
Ikki used radical footsteps, which used to confuse the enemy. His figure became blurry until there were several copies of him. Among all of those copies, he hid there, yet it was hard to find him. He was like a mirage and would vanish when one hit him.
Yet Tsukasa's reaction was simple. He just swung his sword vertically with a solid yet gentle swing. It was a swing that used all the power on his body, giving harmony and destruction one couldn't imagine.
Ikki felt danger once again and stopped his movement directly before he forcefully dragged his body down!
Similarly like before, there was no sound, only the movement of his blade, yet suddenly the homogamous cloud in the sky was split by his blade.
"........" Everyone.
Even the helicopter from the television station was so afraid at this moment since Tsukasa's attack was so sudden, and it was also bending the law of physics. After all, when one swung one's blade, there would be a resistance in the air, and this resistance would create an airwave, which made it impossible for noise not to be heard. In other words, making such a quiet and soundless swing was impossible. Therefore, the only way to solve this problem was to make the swing faster.
Ikki did this since his sword technique revolved around speed, weight, and strength.
However, Tsukasa did a "Plus Ultra" and made such an unreasonable swing!
"Onii-sama..." Shizuku looked at Ikki worriedly and felt frustrated. After all, no matter what angle or way she thought of it, she just couldn't think of how Ikki defeated Tsukasa.
Even Arisuin, who wanted to support Ikki, was silent and just looked at the split cloud speechlessly. If this attack was a "Noble Art," or even an ultimate technique, he might be able to say something. However, even he could tell that it was just a normal swing.
'It's just a swing, yet the damage was like this?'
Even the members of the student council were dumbfounded.
"Wo-Wow..." Renren opened her mouth so wide in awe. Somehow she felt the terrorists that had attacked them previously were nothing.
Ikuzuchi gulped, but Utakata scratched his head dumbfoundedly and asked, "Kanata, Touka, when did Tsukasa become so strong?" He knew Tsukasa was strong, but he felt Tsukasa was too strong!
"After his training," Kanata said, but her eyes were full of excitement since she knew there shouldn't be a problem for him to break the engagement set by her family.
"Yeah." Touka nodded and said, "His swordsman has enhanced even more." Her eyes were fervent, full of longing and obsession when she saw this swordsmanship. "His sword has reached a perfectly strong and gentle blade."
"Strong and gentle blade?"
Even Kagami also looked at Touka since it was their first time to hear about this.
Still, the one who explained it was Stella. "Tsukasa has said there are two types of swordsmanship: the strong and the gentle blade."
The strong blade was like its name, a sword technique that emphasized strength. Stella was of this type since she mostly used her brute strength to fight. Besides her, while it wasn't like one, Ikki was also this type of swordsman, but Ikki was more powerful than Stella since there was a subtleness in his swordsmanship, which caused the damage by their swings just a world apart.
Still, if one asked which one was more dangerous, then it was hard to say, especially when Stella had the power of the dragon. The technique and whatsit didn't really matter to her as long as she landed on her blade.
Then the opposite of the strong blade was the gentle blade, a sword technique that emphasized speed.
Touka was part of this type since she combined her swordsmanship with her ability, creating an ultra-electromagnetic battoujutsu.
On the other hand, Tsukasa used a combination of the two. His swordsmanship was so versatile. He could effortlessly cut the cloud in the sky, yet the movement of his sword was masterful and graceful with precision, so beautiful like a swallow flying freely in the sky.

"If the brat from the Kurogane can't overcome his blade, then this match is already over," Nangou said while looking at the sky in a mutter.
Kurono couldn't say much since she knew Nangou was right, but then the scene in the sky somehow reminded him of that day. Her face turned crimson, yet there was a solemness on her face. However, she quickly shook her head, thinking it was impossible for her student to be awoken. "No, Kurogane still has a chance."
"Oh-ho?" 2x
Nene and Nangou looked at Kurono interestingly.
Perfect Vision.
This was what made Kurono feel like Ikki still had a chance.
No one had ever taught Ikki, so all he could do was steal someone else's technique through observation. However, this wasn't enough, so he developed a new technique that helped him with his insight, and the answer to that was this technique. By using this technique, it let him see through his opponent by tracing their small tendencies and personalities in a battle to where he was able to predict and react to their next moves.
However...
Nene and Nangou could only show a bitter smile at Kurono.
"Wh-What's that expression?" Kurono asked awkwardly.
"Kuu-chan, you're not a swordsman, so you might not understand." Nene pointed at Tsukasa and said, "That guy has never used any techniques or whatever. Instead, he has been using his opponent's technique and also just simple swing. With all of that, what can you see? Even if you see it, can you beat the overwhelming power?"
"......" Kurono.
What technique, what shit, nothing could defeat the overwhelming power.
One attack would destroy everything.
What could one see at that very moment?
Dead!
This is how Ikki felt now.
Ikki felt all the ways for him were closed, whether trickery, technique, or others were meaningless in front of Tsukasa.
Still...
Ikki took a deep breath and knew there was only one way for him to defeat Tsukasa!
'Go straight!'
Ignoring the tingling of the sharpness that came from Tsukasa's aura, Ikki dove into this sea of darkness.
'What's the point of hesitation?'
Even if Ikki drowned deep into the sea, he was going to show that he would be able to win!
Staring at Ikki, who became stronger and stronger, Tsukasa must admit this guy must be a protagonist.
