Watching the toy sword once again appearing in Saber's hand and emitting a bright light, Tom became extremely suspicious if he had opened his eyes incorrectly. Decisively, Tom closed his eyes and rubbed them with both hands before reopening them. However, the result remained unchanged. Upon tentatively opening his eyes again, the golden-glowing toy sword was still in Saber's hand. It was evident that Tom hadn't mistaken it. This enemy suddenly had a sword in her hand!
Tom furrowed his brow in extreme displeasure. He couldn't even see how the sword appeared in Saber's hand. It was as if it materialized out of thin air, without any process of being taken out. It was simply too bizarre. Tom couldn't fathom under what circumstances a person could conjure such a large sword out of nothing. It was completely unscientific but utterly magical!
If, and only if, fighting with someone was like playing football with referees, Tom would have immediately sought out a referee and reported that Saber was rigging the match. Just a moment ago, she appeared unarmed, and then suddenly produced a sword longer than the entire cat itself! Is this some kind of joke?!
Tom had never seen anyone pull out something so massive from behind them. It was incredibly fake, just too fake! Comparing it to the small shovel in his own hand, it was ridiculous. He needed a weapon of equal length; otherwise, this battle would be futile.
Lost in thought, Tom suddenly noticed that the height of the low white wooden fence surrounding the Bai Song residence, known as the "Uryuu Residence," was similar to the length of the sword in Saber's hand. If he could break off a wooden board, wouldn't it become a weapon of the same size as that woman's toy sword? It seemed feasible!
With this idea in mind, Tom's eyes brightened, and the glint was so dazzling that Saber on the other side couldn't help but squint. Seizing the opportunity, Tom decisively ran toward the nearest section of the fence, leaped into the air, and grabbed the top of one of the pure white wooden boards. He then placed his feet on the two adjacent boards.
Twisting his buttocks left and right, confirming that his position was perfect for exerting force, Tom clenched his teeth and exerted all his strength to pull up the wooden board. "Creak..." Accompanied by Tom exerting his full strength, the upper half of the board was easily pulled out, causing the entire board to creak as if it would snap in half if Tom exerted just a bit more force.
However, upon careful observation, one could notice that the nails connecting the upper half of the board were still attached to the wooden post. Strangely, these nails didn't appear to be made of iron but more like a piece of chewing gum that could be stretched in any shape but not detached.

"Biu~~~biu~~~" Seeing that he still couldn't break the wooden board, Tom had to summon all his strength, close his eyes, and grit his teeth. He was even grinding his molars to bits.
"Bang~~~!!! Bang~~~!!!" Finally, at the moment when Tom's molars were about to be crushed, the stubborn nail on the wooden board could no longer withstand Tom's strength. It was completely pulled off from the wooden post by Tom.
Although Tom ended up falling on the ground due to the sudden detachment of the wooden board while exerting force on the fence, he was ecstatic when he lifted the board. He even cheered, "Ah-ha!"
Saber, who was watching the entire process, was concerned that if she ran up to launch a surprise attack, it would tarnish her honor as a knight. Additionally, she was afraid that if she attempted to attack, Tom would counter with a strong move. Therefore, despite seeing a significant opportunity, Saber didn't take action.
Saber remained vigilant, tightly gripping Excalibur that emitted a golden light, and observed every move of Tom without any distraction. She was curious as to why Tom went to pull off a wooden board and why it required so much effort. Could this wooden board be some kind of noble phantasm?
When Tom held up the board and exclaimed with an "Ah-ha," Saber, who expected the unexpected, was once again surprised. At that moment, the sound of Tom's earlier exclamation still echoed in Saber's mind, leading her to wonder, "Is that how cats sound?"
Regardless of Saber's thoughts at that moment, Tom was undoubtedly happy. Firstly, the owner of the house next door didn't show any sign of blame for the reasonable destruction. Secondly, Tom acquired a weapon of the same size as the toy sword in the woman's hand across from him!
With the large wooden board held up, a dangling tongue, and starry eyes for a few seconds, Tom looked wickedly towards Saber. It was now... hunting time!
"Is it coming?" Noticing Tom's gaze, Saber immediately entered a combat stance to prepare for any potential attack from Tom.
For some reason, Saber felt a rather terrifying aura, causing a drop of cold sweat to trickle down her forehead. Even though her intuition ability didn't give any warning, she couldn't help but sense a chilling presence.
"Hoo hoo ha ha ha ha ha~!" Tom, with his right hand gripping the end of the wooden board, continued to slap his left palm while wearing a wicked smile, approaching Saber.
Although the distance between them was only ten meters, and Tom's speed was not slow, in Saber's eyes, the process of Tom getting closer seemed incredibly elongated. The longer the time dragged on, the more eerie it felt to her.
Fortunately, it was ultimately just an illusion.
Even though Saber's rapidly working brain perceived it as a significant stretch of time, for the onlookers around them, it appeared to be a completely normal passage of time.
Finally, Tom arrived in front of Saber and ceased the light tapping of his left hand with the wooden board. He placed the board on his shoulder and raised his head, exuding confidence as he looked directly at Saber's face. With a weapon of the same size now in his possession, he showed no signs of backing down against Saber.
