Chapter 416: Too Many Containers!
Meanwhile, on the battlefield of Egherd.
The smoke was choking.
This is the arena for the "Sun God plus Ancient Robot" and the "Scientific War God".
It is a meat grinder of relics from the old era and power in the present.
"Hehehe! Grandpa Spider, you've lost another leg!"
Luffy's laughter pierced through the noise.
He was enveloped in white smoke.
Nika's fifth form.
He crouched on the steel shoulders of the ancient robot, a spot as wide as a plaza.
He grabbed the rusty antenna on the robot's head with both hands.
It's like piloting an invincible warship.
The ancient robot's red electronic eyes were fixed on the shadow below.
The robotic arm lifts up.
The hydraulic system roared.
A straight punch landed heavily.
Boom!
The earth cracked open, and rubble flew everywhere like bullets.
At the center of the smoke and dust, Satan Saint's demon form was in a sorry state.
His prized carapace was riddled with cracks.
Only three of the six spider legs remained.
The others were either torn apart or smashed.
Dark green blood gushed from the severed wound.
A fishy, foul odor.
"Cough...cough cough..."
Satan gasped for breath, his lungs throbbing with pain.
The severed limb writhed, trying to grow back.
But it didn't work.
Luffy's Conqueror's Haki and the Ancient Robot's powerful punches prevent his regeneration from keeping up with his destruction.
"Damn it... damn it!"
Satan's sacred teeth were almost crushed.
He is one of the Five Elders.
They are descendants of gods who have stood at the top of the world for hundreds of years.
He never imagined he would end up in such a miserable state.
Nika's abilities are too strange; every punch he throws seems to drill into his internal organs.
What the hell is that ancient robot? It's been hundreds of years and it's still this powerful.
"Why did this damn robot suddenly come back to life...?"
"Shall we continue, you old monster!"
Luffy bounced around on the robot's shoulder, his arms outstretched like a slingshot.
"My next attack will send you flying to the moon!"
"Shut up! You mere pirate!"
Satan roared, veins bulging on his forehead, as if he wanted to retaliate by spewing poison.
Just then.
A chill exploded from the depths of his soul.
It's not from Luffy.
It's not from a robot.
It comes from his bloodline, from the unseen contract between him and that great man.
Time stopped.
The shouts of battle, the sounds of explosions, and Luffy's laughter all disappeared.
An immense and indescribable will, disregarding space and the physical body, descended directly into his mind.
High above.
Utterly indifferent.
They regard all things as straw dogs.
"I... Lord Im?!"
Satan's pupils shrank to a single point.
ecstasy.
The adults didn't abandon him! The adults came to save him!
"My lord! Please grant me strength! I will surely be able to—"
His prayer was stuck in his throat.
Ecstasy freezes.
It turned into endless fear.
That will did not grant him power.
Instead, it was... devouring him.
Like a starving person grabbing a loaf of bread, Im's will opened its jaws and bit down hard on Satan Saint's self.
"grown ups!!"
Satan screamed in agony in the spiritual world.
"What do you want?"
"Shut up."
A voice, echoing with countless reverberations, resounded in his soul.
It is a divine oracle.
It is also a judgment.
"Your body has been confiscated by Mu."
In a word.
Jaigorusia Satan Saint, gone.
The real world.
Satan, who was about to spray poison, froze.
The fear, anger, and despair that had contorted his face vanished in an instant.
Like a blank sheet of paper.
A deathly silence.
"Um?"
Luffy stopped attacking, and the smile on his face disappeared.
He was like a wild beast encountering its natural enemy, full of vigilance.
His white hair, like flames, suddenly exploded on his head.
His Observation Haki was frantically triggering alarms in his mind.
This feeling is even more terrifying than facing Kaido, or even the "Junzi" from before.
"Hey...Big Iron Guy, stop!"
Luffy patted the robot's head, his voice unusually serious.
Something... has changed.
The ancient robot's enormous body also suddenly stopped.
The red electronic eye shone brightly, and the internal alarm blared.
"High-energy reaction detected...source...identified...non-biological...non-natural..."
The atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly became oppressive.
The dark clouds in the sky began to swirl and press down.
Black lightning bolts streaked wildly through the clouds, but there was no thunder.
Only deathly silence.
In that desolate center, Satan's broken body began to change.
Click, click, click.
The sound of bones popping was terrifyingly frequent.
From the severed spider leg, black divine power gushed out like oil.
It's not a cure.
It solidifies and reforms in the air.
New limbs grew instantly.
But no longer are carapace-like segments; instead, they are pitch-black spikes formed purely of malice.
His dented chest swelled up.
The broken skin peeled off, revealing new flesh with flowing dark gold patterns.
A black shockwave exploded outwards from him.
call--!
This was not a physical impact; it was a psychological crushing.
Luffy's Conqueror's Haki was like a candle flickering in the wind, instantly dissipated.
"Whoa!"
Luffy raised his hand to cover his face, forced to take a few steps back on the robot's shoulder.
The ancient robot emitted a metallic groan of unbearable strain as its massive body was forcefully pushed and slid for dozens of meters.
Two deep furrows were plowed into the ground.
The smoke and dust cleared.
Which former "Satan Saint" stood up in an ergonomically unnatural posture?
His spine cracked repeatedly as his hunched body was forcibly straightened.
Taller and more upright.
He raised his head.
The face is still that of Satan.
But everything feels different now.
The turbid eyes of the bull demon are gone.
A pair of scarlet eyes took its place.
Inside the pupils, there were concentric black ripples.
Rinnegan.
Those are Im's eyes.
The eyes of God.
"call……"
"Satan Saint" opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of black gas.
That was Satan's last breath.
He raised his hand, looked at the new body, and then clenched his fist.
The joints cracked.
"Although it's a defective product... it's still usable."
The voice is no longer old.
It is Im's signature eerie voice, a mix of men, women, young and old.
The sound wasn't loud, but it carried throughout the entire Egherd district.
On the ruins in the distance.
Chen Ye stood with his hands in his pockets, his golden hair flying wildly in the wind.
He looked at the figure who had stood up again, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"As expected, are you unwilling to leave like this?"
Chen Ye's voice pierced through the storm, full of mockery.
"Your main body doesn't dare to come down, fearing that the three of us will gang up on you and beat you to death, so you directly seize the bodies of the Five Elders? Im, you really know how to 'make use of waste'."
Roger dropped his playful grin, placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and his eyes became serious.
"That aura... Yes, it's that guy. Even more evil and purer than the Stand from before."
Lox stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, his eyes filled with a frenzied fighting spirit.
"Hehehe... Possessing his own subordinates? What a ruthless tactic, but... I like it! It makes killing them all the more thrilling!"
"Satan Saint," or Im, turned his neck, making a chilling cracking sound.
Those two Rinnegan eyes traversed a thousand meters, coldly watching Chen Ye.
There was no anger.
There was only a calmness, like watching a dead person.
"Tatsuba."
Im spoke, his voice like the chilling winds of hell.
"You have destroyed Mu's most perfect vessel, bringing shame upon Mu in this era."
"But that doesn't change the outcome. In this world, M is the rule, M is destiny."
As soon as she finished speaking, the space behind her began to distort.
The black divine power danced like tentacles, devouring the surrounding light.
Im raised his right hand, palm up.
sizzle-
Gravel, air, and even light all converged frantically into her palm.
In the blink of an eye, a fist-sized, yet black sphere that could absorb souls took shape in her palm.
A miniature black hole compressed to the extreme.
"The game continues."
Im's voice was devoid of emotion. She lifted the black ball, her gaze sweeping over Luffy and the robot before finally settling on Chen Ye.
"This time, I will crush you myself."
