Look at the arrow
Where did the arrow come from
Of course it was Shinji who shot it out, using his new treasure, Karna's Brahma magic weapon - "Immortal Blade".
But isn't the "Immortal Blade" a gun? How can it shoot arrows
The answer is simple, Shinji turned it into a bow, the Golden Bow.
Let me clarify a concept again. Noble Phantasms are the sublimation of the deeds of heroes. They are not physical objects. They are like genuine things but not genuine things. The essence of Noble Phantasms is the legends that spread among humans, which is the crystallization of faith and the materialization of souls.
Since it is the crystallization of faith and the product of the materialization of the soul, Shinji, who has also entered the field of "materialization of the soul" and can transform his thoughts into power, has much more room for maneuver.
For example, extracting the faith from the treasure and attaching it to the Dharma body.
"Fantasy Collapse" explodes the tangible part of the treasure, while the intangible part is not damaged. After all, the treasure comes from legends, and legends are immortal, so the treasure lasts forever.
The principle of repairing a treasure is to reshape the lost magic power and shattered entities. In this case, why not go a step further and create a brand new form that is more suitable for oneself? This is a new idea after Shinji absorbed the inheritance of the relics and forged his thoughts into a Dharma body.
It was only because he was too busy fighting with Shirou to be distracted that he chose the safest option and attached the concept and belief of the treasure to the Dharma body.
The Dharmakaya is not a complete entity, but a special product between reality and illusion, similar to the servant's spirit clothing (the armor of Mordred and Altria), which is very convenient to attach or detach.
The result was naturally a great success, and different concepts were attached to various parts of the Dharma body.
The head is attached with the Eye of Medusa, which can release petrifying light.
The legs are attached with Hermes' feather shoes, which carry Shinji and fly in the air.
The body part is covered with Hades' cloak to weaken the presence and create a surprise effect.
The arms were equipped with the scythe of hunting snakes, the shield of Athena, the thunder of Indra, the sword of Qingyun, the scepter of the goddess, and the concept of Ishtar's war spear. After a set of combos, with divine power, thunder, wind and fire, and the special effect of wounds not being able to heal, Shirou was in great pain.
If he hadn't used his ultimate move "Zanka no Tachi", Shinji would have achieved his goal by now - beating him so hard that his mother wouldn't even recognize him.
However, there is always a trade-off. Being blown to the bottom of the sea gave Shinji more time to carry out the "transformation" of his Noble Phantasm, and the arrival of the Eternal Blade and the Fantasy Greatsword also provided him with new materials.
First of all, it is important to make it clear that the transformation of a tangible treasure is definitely more difficult than the reconstruction of an intangible one. The reason is simple. It is easy to give you an iron ingot and ask you to forge it into a sword, but it is very difficult to give you an iron rod and ask you to forge it into a sword. The intangible is the iron ingot, and the tangible is the iron rod.
Even a red-robed archer who is good at piracy cannot modify his pirated product as he pleases, let alone the genuine product that is closely related to his own deeds? The short time from obtaining a new treasure to floating to the surface of the sea is not enough to complete the transformation of the treasure. However, this is based on the premise that the original treasure is transformed into a new form. If the treasure is restored to its "original form", that is another matter.
Although he possesses "unrivaled martial arts" and is proficient in various weapons, Karna is a great hero known for his bow and arrows. His Brahma magic weapon "Immortal Blade" was originally a bow, but it became a gun because of the lancer's job restrictions. Therefore, the "Immortal Bow" is the true form of this treasure and the true appearance of the crystallization of faith.
There is no need to work hard, just guide the faith and the "Bow of Immortality" will be restored.
And this "Immortal Bow" is the key for Shinji to deal with the "Zanka Katana" - if I can't beat you in close combat, I will shoot you to death from a distance.
As for arrows, how could Shinji and Chiron not be able to use magic to condense arrows after learning for so long? That is a basic skill that every archer must learn.
Holding the "Bow of Immortality" in his left hand and pulling the bowstring with his right hand, the magic power of the same color as the sea automatically gathered into an arrow. Under the guidance of Artoria, it pierced the night sky with the clear sound of the bowstring being plucked, and shot directly at Shirou who was high in the sky.
With Shirou's strength, a mere arrow would not have any effect on him. He casually swung his sword and deflected the arrow, and even had time to complain:
"Melee is not working, so you switched to ranged combat? But after all, you are not - uh..."
I can’t complain any more because subsequent blows are coming one after another.
Not just one, but dozens of them in a row.
"I almost forgot this guy has a Dharma image!"
Continuous arrows are a very high-level archery skill. Even a strong man like Chiron can only shoot ten arrows in a row, because continuous shooting puts a lot of pressure on the arms. However, this is based on the premise of two hands, one holding the bow and the other shooting the arrow. If there is an extra hand to rotate, the load will be greatly reduced.
For Shinji, let alone dozens of shots, even shooting hundreds of shots continuously would not be a pressure at all - there's nothing to say, the more hands you have, the more you can do as you please!
This isn't an archer at all, it's a human machine gun.
What's even more outrageous is that this machine gun also has an Altria brand God's Realm guidance system. No matter how Shirou runs or hides, Shinji's machine gun can find the target in the first place and bombard it, forcing Shirou to jump up and down, dodge left and right, and shout repeatedly:
"It's a foul, it's a foul to use 'Senpo Wood Release' on the Type-Moon set; it's a foul."
"How dare you say that to me? Is it against the rules to use the Zanka no Tachi on the Type-Moon set?"
Not only is Shinji's voice louder, his attacks are also more brutal - getting a bruised face and nose is too easy for him, and turning into a hedgehog is a more appropriate ending.
After shooting thousands of arrows in a row, Shinji had a new understanding. He began to attach the faith of the treasure attached to the Dharmakaya to the magic arrows, adding new attributes to the arrows.
This time, Shinji's firepower went up a level. The humanoid machine gun was still the human heart machine gun, but it would switch to a mortar from time to time to fire a few rounds.
Shirou's life is even more difficult. After all, he doesn't control the second magic, and "Dimension Jump" is also limited by distance. Before, he could rely on this skill to jump out of the range of the rain of arrows, but the rain of arrows is different with the special effects of the treasure. Especially the special effect of the "Qingyun Sword" is famous for its range. If you are not careful, you will be hit by the wind and fire. Although it is just a minor skin injury, it will affect your condition if it happens too many times.
"You forced me to use my ultimate move."
Shirou, who was becoming more and more embarrassed, took a deep breath and suddenly stopped in the air.
How could Shinji miss such a good opportunity? He will kill you while you are weak. He first rained arrows, then two "Blue Cloud Arrows" and "Indra's Arrows", leaving Shirou no chance to breathe.
However - this time, Shinji's attack did not have the slightest effect.
The arrows in the sky suddenly began to melt before they even got close to Shirou, no matter if they were pure magic arrows or arrows with the concept of a treasure attached. In the end, none of them came within ten meters of Shirou.

PS: I see that many readers are getting impatient, so I will briefly explain that this fight will be over tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will start to reveal the mystery of Shinji's time travel, the world line, and a series of problems. It is expected to be completed in 300 chapters (Jiang Lai has a deviation, I will be mad), which will take about a week. I feel that the story is too slow, so I have to write it well, explain everything that should be explained, and also wrap up what should be wrapped up - such as a teaching competition between Chiron and Scathach.
