Chapter 381 Life Will Find Its Own Way
Manmaia Military Palace.
This wasn't the first time Roy had heard this name.
As a time traveler, he already knew that this Junzi was one of the most special among all the knights of the gods.
She seemed to have already possessed the "Abyssal Mark" belonging to the Five Elders when she was a Guardian Blade of God, thus gaining an ageless and immortal appearance.
In addition, she is the only knight in the original God Knight series who definitively demonstrated her ability as the vessel of "Im".
More importantly, through Brook's words, Roy has actually confirmed that this "soldier" is not a Celestial Dragon, but a princess from the Kingdom of Fredom in the West Blue.
That kingdom, which was once Brook's homeland, was destroyed by the World Government in the past for some reason.
Of course, based on what Roy knows so far, the reason for the destruction of this kingdom is probably quite significant.
"According to Vegapunk, the section of the Pillar of Creation's root and the special Road Poneglyph were both discovered by him in the Kingdom of Fredoum... This kingdom, like Wano Country, probably holds considerable weight in Joy Boy and Davy Jones's plans."
This is Roy's guess.
But that's about it.
With his mastery of the bloodline factor source energy and his true understanding of the world, the plans of the Kingdom of Furidum and even Joy Boy were no longer so important to him. He rarely explored them in the past and had almost forgotten about Junzi.
But now, right in front of him.
He met a girl named Junzi for the first time; her real age was unknown.
And I witnessed firsthand what made her special.
"boom!"
Even as Roy continued to absorb and absorb, the aura belonging to Im on Junzi's body continued to grow.
The growth rate was enormous, almost exceeding Roy's "maximum" assessment of Im!
Loy even doubted whether Im's true form could possess this level of bloodline factor source energy, even if Im himself were to descend.
Therefore, at this moment, an incredible guess naturally came to Roy's mind.
"Bound" was...
He didn't know how the other person had done it.
But what is certain is that at this moment, Im, who descended through Junzi's body, must have already transcended, or at least partially transcended, the constraints he was bound to.
so...
"Buzz!"
The next moment, Roy's figure vanished from the spot and appeared beside the collapsed Rocks.
At the same time, Junzi's aura had expanded to its limit—at this moment, the huge, sky-covering wings behind her seemed to truly bring an eternal night of despair to the world around them.
Then, she... or rather, He slowly raised his hand to the Star Lord.
"Who are you?"
He questioned the being below with unprecedented seriousness and coldness.
He could feel it—His power had just been drained.
If not for this special vessel, He might not have been able to descend successfully.
Therefore, he is certainly capable of making a clear judgment.
The being that appeared in the Valley of the Gods, a place he thought had been settled, a battlefield where he had supposedly defeated David, was an extraordinary being, equal to him, and even someone who knew Him very well.
Im could even faintly sense the intense bloodline factor energy emanating from the Star Lord, as well as the subtle sense of threat emanating from him.
That fellow is one of His kind—He is also a god, and even has his own divine kingdom, just not here.
That was an unprecedented and absolutely intolerable transgression for Im.
So, as they were speaking, Im, who had descended upon Junzi's body, had already lowered his hand...
"Buzz!"
Dark lightning descended from the sky, and as it hit the ground, it seemed to rise up like dispersing mist, enveloping the entire Valley of the Gods in an instant.
"Click!"
The ancient island seemed to fall into night suddenly, and as the earth grew dark, countless cracks rapidly spread across it.
Then...
"boom!"
It began to crumble and sink.
It was as if something unimaginable and indescribable, terrifying, was dragging it from the depths of the sea, pulling it, like countless civilizations and islands of the past, into the abyss of destruction.
But at this moment...
"Buzz!"
In that darkness, a ray of starlight never dimmed.
Wearing a mask, Roy hoisted Rox onto his shoulder.
Countless dark abyssal forces attempted to pierce through the starlight and kill him, but Roy simply raised his head and looked at the enraged Im.
He remained calm.
Unlike the time in Wano Country—this time his appearance was too sudden, and Im was completely unaware of his existence.
He did not set up the magic array in advance, nor did he activate the rainbow light of judgment beforehand.
He couldn't stop him.
"My name is Star Lord."
He seemed to be answering Im's words, a fate that had turned around and was finally in his grasp.
"I will be the one who defeats you and drags you down from your pedestal."
"Please look forward to it—Im."
See you in the future.
The words fell.
The starlight around him suddenly contracted under the spread of countless abyssal forces.
The next moment, he and Lox vanished from their spot.
Meanwhile.
Thirty years from now.
See you in the future.
The red glow of the verdict had faded, and the sea began to rise.
Im stared intently at the spot where the Star Lord had disappeared, the chilling coldness in his pupils turning into a stiff silence.
His form was dimming—the "red light of judgment" was destroying not only everything around him, but also the abyss array set up here.
Therefore, it is only natural that his illusory image cannot exist here for long. In fact, he is now unable to even make a move again.
but...
""
'
Im lowered his eyes—he could see the sea below and the changes on its surface.
He could see the ghost island below—an island that had been completely shattered by the previous attack.
Only on some of the island's ruins are the heavily wounded samurai helping each other.
In front of them, you can see Ace and Yamato, their faces filled with vigilance and anger.
Beside them, one could see Harald, motionless as a corpse.
He could see the sea gradually rising, and the distant land of Wano gradually being submerged by the sea.
He could see the surging turbulent currents, the boundless giant waves, and Pluto, the god of the underworld, whose fire had been temporarily extinguished by the main cannon's earlier attack.
but...
Im knew that nothing could be destroyed.
Because those below still harbored hostility towards Him.
Because you can hear the cheers of the people and rebels who remained in Wano Country after seeing Onigashima destroyed.
Giant waves, turbulent currents, death, sacrifice, fear—all of this truly exists.
However, as long as hope is not completely destroyed and despair has not yet arrived, these things are not enough to break life.
They will find a way out.
But Im knew—in his current state, He was powerless to stop it.
Just as He couldn't stop that guy called the Star Lord from leaving in the past, just as He couldn't stop him from leaving again just now.
After this battle, Wano Country... will usher in an unstoppable opening of the country.
What angered Im the most was...
"Back then, was it from now on...?"
He had already vaguely realized that reality.
The man he had been searching for for the past thirty years, at all costs, may never have been born thirty years ago.
"The other party used the power of time to travel to the past right before his eyes."
His judgment was wrong from the beginning.
The surprise attack, launched at the cost of a large amount of bloodline factor energy and resources, has become the prelude to that first encounter.
He himself caused the founding of Wano Country; he himself caused everything to happen.
Im also knew that the Star Lord would inevitably return to this timeline soon.
By then, he would no longer have the chance to kill his opponent.
How ironic!
It was as if... fate was mocking Him.
Therefore, at this moment, Im's gloom had reached its true peak.
He truly, genuinely sensed that threat—the other party was no longer an enemy chasing after him from behind.
After losing this source of bloodline factor energy and ultimately failing.
The other party had already placed the knife against his neck; only the final burst of blood was needed before the throne collapsed.
but...
"Hmm...we won't lose."
Im murmured.
"Shamrock".
So, he silently contacted his last servant in his heart—his only remaining servant in this operation, originally prepared in case the Star Lord's divine kingdom arrived.
"Go, bring that man, Joey Boy, to M."
That was the final plan, and the stage that would completely expose his existence to the world.
He shouldn't have set foot on it so soon.
But clearly, Im has no other choice now.
"I will reclaim...the power that belongs to me!"
