The tail's relentless charge would not be stopped. Bruce's barrier shattered to pieces as Serpa-Mon's tail tore through it with each, suffering minimal damage moments before it struck Jenso with the jagged rocks aiding in its strike, ultimately launching him, and the remainder of the barricade towards the smooth wall of the room, over the magma. The tail didn't stop, continuing towards Bruce with slightly reduced speed. As it emerged from the dust however, there were clear markings all along its length, where it had struck the rocks. The head of Serpa-Mon was still unoccupied, though, and as this was happening, it directed itself towards Bruce, and fired another torrent of flames behind him, cutting off his most immediate escape route.
