Sam grunted as his gut was struck but that didn't stop him from catching the next attack. Sam clamped his hand around O-Chul's and threw a savage punch towards O-Chul's face, but his slow speed gave O-Chul more than enough time to block the attack. And while the block made the blow a lot less effective then Sam would've liked, it had left O-Chul's arm guard broken. Sam was going to storm towards O-Chul but it seemed the battered criminal still had some tricks up his sleeve, and it looked rather powerful. Especially if that burn mark Sam had gotten on his leg was any indicator of the power O-Chul's chi carried. Sam didn't get much time to plan his next attack as O-Chul fired off the massive ball of energy. Sam decided he'd shoulder check into the orb as he had no real way of avoiding such a fast attack, and even if this orb burnt three times a much as the kick did Sam would still have a functioning arm after it. So Sam barreled into the ball of chi and instead of getting burnt as he'd expected Sam felt the ball knocking him back with tremendous force. Sam almost comically bounced off the energy ball, his shoulder dislocating from the force of the impact, though he'd managed to redirect the kinetic energy ball. Where it was going to fly was anyone's guess.
