Chapter 662: The Newly Born 'Lord of the Sky', Kukulkan!
"Oh?"
Im's eyebrows lifted in surprise upon hearing these words, feeling quite astonished.
He hadn't expected Dean Vegapunk to have already researched the Technology to manufacture Devil Fruits so early.
He had thought it would take at least four or five years.
After all, there was still a time span of twenty-one years until the 'Original Plot'.
Actually, the reason Vegapunk achieved results so quickly was largely related to two key factors.
Firstly, the 'Spoiler Information' Im showed him back then allowed Vegapunk to avoid many detours and served to clarify his Research direction.
Secondly, Im's previous actions of having the World Government fully assist Vegapunk in improving his Hometown, 'Future Kingdom' Baldimore Island, and even specifically dispatching Sakazuki for this purpose, earned him Vegapunk's recognition and loyalty.
Otherwise, even if he had achieved results, there was a high probability that Vegapunk would have hidden them.
Unlike now, where he reported it immediately.
Currently, on 'Future Kingdom' Baldimore Island, although Vegapunk chose to retain the island's Climate, unwilling to pay the price of losing the night, it remained a Ice and Snow World with cold winds howling.
However, because Sakazuki created two small volcanoes on the island, and Vegapunk then slightly modified the large Heating Furnace System he had built years ago, connecting it to the volcanic Lava Pool to serve as an Energy source and using the island's endless Ice and Snow to boil water, it provided sufficient Heating for all the Buildings on the island.
He even drew inspiration from the 'Kabaneri World's' High-Pressure Steam Engine 'McClatchy Mechanism' and the 'Titan World's' Ice Burst Stone Gas Drive Device to create Small Heating Air Conditioners that could be worn on one's person.
As long as it was worn outside the Clothing, it could release a stable Airflow Shield around the wearer that wouldn't disperse, resisting all sorts of external cold Wind and Snow.
It's worth mentioning that Vegapunk's large Heating Furnace System still required significant continuous Funding.
After all, this thing had to run twenty-four hours a day, making various maintenance costs unavoidable.
He had been forced to abandon it back then precisely because of this problem.
But now, the World Government directly reimbursed Vegapunk for these expenses.
They also told him that as long as he continued to work for the World Government, he wouldn't need to worry about these matters.
Even if something unexpected happened to him or he died of old age, the World Government, in gratitude for his contributions, would pay for Baldimore Island's Heating costs for a hundred years!
Although this amount seemed like an Astronomical Figure to many, Im felt it was too cheap compared to Vegapunk's loyalty.
However, Vegapunk hadn't given up on the idea of completely solving the island's Climate problem.
Only by doing so could he completely eliminate future worries for his Hometown.
Therefore, he planned to optimize his current Heating System, which now seemed quite backward and crude.
Yes, he intended to use his Technological Power to completely change the Climate of the entire island, making it just the right temperature for humans.
Compared to this, the Logia Devil Fruit Awakening Ability was a bit too crude.
The Light-Light Fruit Awakening would turn the island into Eternal Day, while the Flame-Flame Fruit Awakening would make the island constantly hot.
But this required some Time.
Vegapunk had too much Research content on hand.
The Research Talent that had appeared in the recent Worlds were not yet at a level where they could be of help.
Returning to Im.
Of course, he thought it was a good thing that the World Government had achieved a Technological Breakthrough in the Devil Fruit Domain.
But as the Supreme Ruler, he also had to consider the various impacts this matter would have.
The World Government had to treat it with caution.
"Since Common Species Animal System can be manufactured, can Ancient Zoan and Mythical Zoan also be?"
Stussy answered softly and truthfully upon hearing the question.
"According to the information reported by the Proclamation Government Institute, Dean Vegapunk did say there is no difference between Ancient Zoan and Common Species, but it's unclear about Mythical Zoan because these Mythical Beasts cannot be found in reality."
"However, he plans to conduct related Experiments using the Lineage Factor extracted from Admiral 'Green Dragon' back then, to see if he can replicate the Mythical Zoan Azure Dragon Fruit."
Im nodded. It seemed Kaido's Azure Dragon Fruit could not escape the fate of being replicated.
Just as he was deep in Thought, Stussy spoke again, "Lord Im, the Proclamation Government Institute is asking for instructions on whether the manufactured Human-Human Fruit should be sent over."
Im was momentarily stunned, thinking to himself, what would he want a 'Commoner' Fruit for? He was the Boss of the Celestial Dragons!
"Hmm, send it over."
"Yes."
Stussy wasn't surprised either.
After all, it was the first artificially created Devil Fruit.
At the very least, its Collection Value was considerable. She then turned and left the Study Room.
Im sat back down in the chair behind his Office Desk, thinking about how to use this Human-Human Fruit.
His Gaze first glanced at 'Enma' on the Sword Stand in the distance.
Im suddenly had a somewhat immature idea.
It was known that the true Master of the 'Yamato' was King Yama from the 'Sea Star Hell'.
So, if he had Vegapunk feed it the Human-Human Fruit, giving it its own Wisdom and Consciousness, could King Yama still Control it?
Even if he could, what if he used the Op-Op Fruit Ability to directly replace the newly born 'Sword Spirit' with a Mind loyal to himself?
However, there was still a Risk here.
The Power of 'Yamato' came from King Yama. Even if the Blade was no longer under its Control, it could probably withdraw the Power attached to it, directly disabling the Ability to enter and exit the Netherworld.
Unless the newly born 'Blade Spirit' had higher priority Control over the Power within the Blade.
But Im felt the probability of such a great thing happening was too low.
Next, Im's imagination ran wild.
He thought about giving the Human-Human Fruit, which would soon be delivered, to 'Lord of the Sky' Kukulkan, who lived in the Golden Belfry.
He also thought about giving it to 'Nine-Tailed White Fox' Hong Lian, who had only recently arrived.
He even considered giving it directly to the 'Noah's Ark' beneath his feet.
He thought a Large Ship with its own Consciousness would be cool.
But having its own thoughts represented a certain degree of uncontrollability.
If it threw a tantrum and directly turned into 'Human Form', what would happen to the people on board?
Moreover, it could also be Controlled by others, as there were many Powerhouses with Mind Control Ability in the Myriad Worlds.
As dawn rose in the Titan World, the first artificially created Animal System Human-Human Fruit, urgently sent from the Sea Star Mainland by the Proclamation Government Institute, arrived on the Noah's Ark Deck within the Door-Door Fruit Space.
At this moment, Im arrived in front of the Golden Belfry.
The Sky Island Great Blue Snake, whom he had named 'Kukulkan', was respectfully lying on the ground before him.
Behind him were Historia, Stussy, the Ubuyashiki Four Sisters, and others.
On either side stood the Female Warriors of the Kuja Guards and three 'Giant God Soldiers' led by Saul.
Further out were large numbers of Holy Land Garrison and CP Agents in suits.
Even 'Nine-Tailed White Fox' Hong Lian was watching the excitement from a distance.
"Kukulkan, today I shall bestow upon you human Wisdom, a human Body, and human Potential. May you stand before the Golden Bell in the future in a stronger Form, guarding this Noah's Ark that is destined to traverse the Star Sea!"
As the majestic words fell, Im threw the Human-Human Fruit, which looked like a Red Mushroom in the box, into the Gaping Maw that the Orochi had opened.
Yes, he ultimately decided to give it to Kukulkan.
After all, this Orochi was his first Pet, and also the first Ship-Guarding Divine Beast on the Noah's Ark. This necessary Resource Allocation had to be given.
Moreover, ever since Hong Lian arrived, Kukulkan's Strength and Intelligence had become quite awkward in comparison.
Soon, Kukulkan's massive Orochi Body, hundreds of meters long, rapidly shrank under everyone's gaze.
It transformed into a white-haired middle-aged man about three meters tall, with a sturdy Physique/Build, bulging Muscles, greenish-blue skin covered in dark blue horizontal stripes.
His eyes, like before, had yellowish Sclera and black Vertical Pupils flashing with cold light.
But upon meeting Im's Gaze, he immediately knelt on both knees, lowered his forehead, and prostrated himself on the Deck, shouting excitedly in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Kukulkan, greetings, Master! Greetings, Lord Im!"
(End of this chapter)
## Chapter 663: The Out of Control Imperial Guardian Mech!
Kukulkan had gained a Human Form.
The greatest Benefits, besides possessing extremely high Intelligence, were the ability to Cultivate human Martial Arts and Haki.
The point about Haki was very strange.
The Animals of the World seemed unable to Cultivate the Strength of Haki.
This was a conclusion reached after personal Experiments by the Humandrills and Kung Fu Dugong on the Ark.
They could learn human Swordsmanship and Martial Arts, but for some reason, they absolutely could not learn Haki.
Moreover, since ancient times in the World, there had indeed been no records of Animals capable of using Haki.
Even if the Intelligence of some Animals in the World was no less than that of a Young Man, and they could completely understand human Communication.
However, according to the Historical Records of the World Government.
Four hundred years ago, a Humandrill that ate the Human-Human Fruit appeared. It not only possessed extremely strong Swordsmanship but also Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
This was enough to prove that the Human-Human Fruit could give Animals the Potential to Awaken Haki.
This was also the main reason why Im had previously told Kukulkan that he would bestow upon it 'Human Potential'.
So, over the next few days.
Kukulkan, like Doflamingo, was assigned a Cipher Pol Expert proficient in Six Powers, Life Return, and Two Colors of Haki.
However, it Cultivated on the Deck in front of the Golden Belfry.
Seeing this, the Humandrills and Kung Fu Dugong also came over to accompany it.
Previously, Kukulkan's Body Size was too large, and it was a Snake, so these two little guys were a bit afraid of it.
Now that Kukulkan had a Human Form and could Communicate normally with them, they were naturally happy to have another Partner.
At the same time.
Just as new changes were occurring in both the World Government and Noah's Ark.
The earth-shattering Battle in the Imperial Arms World had already lasted for two days.
And the biggest change here was that there were no longer any Large Islands visible.
Looking out.
Only large and small Rock Formation Fragments were Frozen on the completely Ice-covered Sea Surface, mixed with some Wreckage of shattered Warships.
Good heavens, Kuzan had once again become a Tool Character providing the Battlefield.
And judging by the Scale, it seemed he had Frozen the entire East Blue, clearly having used 'Ice Age' during his Combat with Heimalin.
"Roar!!"
At this moment, a Roar filled with Brutality transformed into a Sound Wave sweeping across the entire area.
It was the Imperial Guardian Mech Roaring towards the sky, its various Eyeballs all over its Body shooting out randomly in all directions like a madman, stirring up red Energy Masses comparable to small Nuclear Explosions on the Frozen Great Sea.
It even lifted its massive right foot and heavily stomped towards the nearby Dean Isaac and Yomi Tsukahara, Sword Saint.
The Imperial Emperor inside seemed to have completely lost basic Rationality.
"Not good!"
"Quickly retreat!"
This caused both of their Expressions to change drastically. They no longer cared about surrounding Garp and quickly used their respective Means to escape at high speed towards the distance.
But Garp remained there because the Clouds obstructed his Sense of Sight and Perception.
[Roar!!!]
The giant foot landed, the Ice Layer burst, and the rolling Air Current swept three to four kilometers.
Wherever it passed, it was like a Gale had swept through, sending large amounts of Rock Formation Fragments into the Air.
Then they fell back into the Ocean at high speed, stirring up tall white wave columns.
"Not good!"
Dean Isaac and Yomi Tsukahara, Sword Saint, who had already run far away, saw this.
While resisting the oncoming Air Current, they cried out inwardly that something was wrong.
They were worried that Garp might encounter some Accident, which would completely offend the World Government.
"Puhahaha————"
Suddenly, a hearty laugh rang out.
As the stirred-up Water Curtain and Ice Cubes fell like a grand curtain.
All the Gazes focused here were surprised to see a small figure standing on a Rock Formation about the size of a Small Island.
He held up his hand above his head, propping up the enormous foot that was stomping down, his face full of delighted Smiles.
"Strong enough, not bad, but it's still far less than the weight of that Ark!"
Garp felt the Strength transmitted down his hand and simply commented, seemingly completely unaware of how earth-shattering his Action was.
Dean Isaac, Yomi Tsukahara, Sword Saint, and countless Audience members from various Worlds.
At this moment, all had dumbfounded Expressions, their mouths wide open, but unable to make any sound.
They simply could not imagine, nor could they understand.
Why could a seemingly ordinary Human Body possess such terrifying Strength.
Compared to the various Supernatural Abilities of others.
Garp's Combat Style seemed too simple, he didn't even have a Weapon.
This led many people who didn't understand him to subconsciously think he was the weakest person present.
"Roar!!"
However, Garp's Action further enraged the Imperial Emperor, who had already entered Purge Mode due to losing Calmness, causing the Imperial Guardian Mech Form to become completely Dragon Transformation.
The Imperial Guardian Mech first retracted its right foot, swung the thick Dragon Tail that had grown behind it at some point, then bent down and forcefully swung its Fist, whose Volume was comparable to a mountain peak, towards Garp below it.
This single punch instantly shattered the surrounding Air, with Hot Water-like boiling Air Current accompanied by the Loud Noise of a Sound Burst.
The Air in front seemed to Freeze into translucent Steel under the Heavy Pressure, and the thick, blurry Air Layer could be seen with the naked eye.
This was absolute Brute Strength!
"Puhahaha, good! This is great!"
"Combat, it should be like this————"
However, facing the descent of such a terrifying Heavy Punch, Garp was overjoyed.
He felt as if every Cell in his Body was cheering, and the Hot Blood in his Body was rapidly heating up.
"Hah!"
Garp roared from his mouth, raising his Aura to its peak.
His entire skin instantly became dyed a metallic-glossy jet black.
The Tendons and Bones below trembled violently under the surging Strength.
His entire Body Size expanded by two Laps in an instant, directly increasing from a Height of 2.5 meters to over three meters.
"Take This Old Man's Iron Fist!"
Garp roared and stomped his foot heavily. The Ground, comparable to a Small Island, instantly cracked and shattered.
His sturdy Body shot towards the High Altitude like a Human Form black Cannonball.
Veins bulging, Muscles bulging, the black Fist with a faint flow of red Aura on its surface flashed out like Lightning.
Instantly.
The surging Fist Force poured upwards like water being pumped out during a flood.
In an instant.
The force, like crashing waves against the shore, tearing through the air and violently sweeping, fierce enough to crush an ordinary person's Body into blood, carried an invincible Haki conception and bravely met the huge Heavy Punch pressing down from above.
One large and one small, one above and one below, the Fists, wrapped in their respective thick Fist Wind, collided heavily across a Space Distance of nearly a hundred meters.
[Roar!!!]
Like Thunder exploding out of nowhere, a visible Shockwave carrying terrifying Strength capable of killing Combat Power below Vice Admiral spread out in all directions across the East Blue, quickly stirring up terrifying Tsunamis over a hundred meters high.
"Gurararara~"
"That Bastard Garp, he's really reckless enough!"
Newgate laughed heartily, letting the overwhelming strong wind blow his blond hair and White Greatcoat loudly, but his Body stood firm.
Even he had to admit that Garp's Strength and Fist were indeed exaggeratedly Strong.
If he didn't use the Ability of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, he simply couldn't Resist the opponent.
"But that thing seems to have lost Control, how should we handle this?"
(End of Chapter)
## Chapter 664: The Friendly Sparring That Couldn't Continue!
The clash between Garp and the Imperial Guardian Mech attracted not only the Audience from various Worlds but also caused Sakazuki, Bulat, Kuzan, Heimalin, as well as Shen He, Kaido, Borsalino, and others who were in intense Combat to halt their actions.
It wasn't that their Commotion was that great.
Rather, it was the Imperial Guardian Mech's indiscriminate state that was surprising.
In terms of Momentum, it wasn't even as great as the previous long-distance bombardment between Newgate and the Imperial Guardian Mech.
Tremor Power and Supreme Energy Bullet could be said to be the main culprits that caused this Large Island, which was as large as thirty thousand square kilometers, to completely collapse and disintegrate.
Secondly, the Scene of Borsalino and Kaido teaming up against Shen He was also not to be underestimated.
At first, Borsalino habitually held the thought of fishing in troubled waters.
He played a game of 'Come and chase me' with the nine Lightning bolts on the side.
But this also caused Kaido to be severely beaten by Shen He.
Facing Shen He, who hid his Figure in the Clouds and completely avoided direct Clash with him.
Kaido could only passively endure the lightning strikes.
Even if he wanted to counterattack, he could only release various Large-Scale Attacks to 'try his luck'.
However.
How high and vast was the Sky? Shen He had plenty of Space to dodge.
Fortunately, whether it was 'Great Torch Dragon' or his own Armament Haki, they provided Kaido with powerful Defense Power.
So, while taking hits, he wasn't in serious trouble for the time being.
But if it went on for too long, he would likely lose.
Seeing Kaido in such a miserable state, and considering that he couldn't really let him be defeated.
Borsalino still took out 'Ama no Murakumo' and instantly blew up all the pursuing Lightning bolts.
Then, without a word, he activated his Awakening Ability.
He directly used 'Eternal Day' to forcefully dispel all the Clouds in the Sky, and seriously teamed up with Kaido to Encirclement and Suppression the exposed Shen He.
Despite Borsalino's usual lazy demeanor, he actually understood the priorities of the Matter very clearly.
He knew that he couldn't defeat Shen He alone, and even less could he let their side truly lose.
Otherwise, the trouble caused would be too great, and his Prize Money would definitely be deducted!
This wouldn't do, absolutely not!
As expected.
As soon as Borsalino made his move, Kaido felt that the originally oppressive Air had become sweet.
After all, liking Combat was one thing, and liking to be beaten was another.
So he didn't complain about anything.
He just silently cooperated with Borsalino, launching a more fierce Offensive against Shen He.
As if to return all the Anger he had just suffered back to the other party.
On Shen He's side, it was the first time it experienced the Feeling of being double-teamed by two existences of the same level.
This was because the Super Dangerous Beasts in the Imperial Arms World had basically received its guidance and help.
Naturally, it was impossible for them to team up and fight it.
Only a thousand years ago, when the First Emperor came with the Imperial Guardian Mech to demand its Flesh and Blood, did they have a proper large-scale Clash.
Although its Flesh and Blood were preserved in the end, the other party still unreasonably pulled away a handful of Hair.
Looking at Shen He's current state.
While it couldn't be said to be bruised and swollen, the various Scars on its Dragon Body also made it look somewhat disheveled.
It's worth mentioning.
The Natural Energy mastered by these Super Dangerous Beasts.
Although it had multiple effects such as enhancing Technique Power, strengthening Physique, attacking Element Transformation Main Bodies, and even improving Spirit Perception.
It uniquely lacked the Defense Ability like Armament Haki.
Therefore, every Super Dangerous Beast needed to develop a set of Defense Methods unique to themselves.
Just like Hong Lian's Ice Crystal Armor and Heimalin's Black Mist Shield.
And Shen He used its Dragon Scales and Hair.
But these were not enough to completely block Borsalino's indestructible 'Ama no Murakumo', Kaido's various Hurricane Thunder Fire Techniques, and the Sharp Claws and Fangs imbued with Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki.
Shen He also didn't have the super Adaptation Talent and Self-Recovery Self-Healing Ability like Bulat.
This resulted in a large amount of Dragon Blood spilling into the surging Ocean.
The intense Suffering also made it unbearable for it, which had little Combat Experience.
To put it bluntly, it was just an Old Dragon that had lived for over two thousand years, had a very high seniority, and relied entirely on the Divine Abilities accumulated over time to suppress other Super Dangerous Beasts.
Although its Overall Strength was similar to the current Edward Newgate.
But if the two were to truly have a life-and-death battle, Shen He would likely be the one killed.
So, as soon as it saw Borsalino and Kaido stop fighting, it was happy to stop as well.
Enduring the pain all over its Body, it joined in watching the rampaging Imperial Guardian Mech.
The Old Dragon looked down below with a profound expression and said.
"It seems the current Imperial Emperor cannot withstand the Will Invasion of 'Destarugul'."
"Destarugul?"
Borsalino glanced at the other party curiously.
"That is the Name of the Deity used to manufacture this Supreme Imperial Arm. It was a Super Tyrannosaurus Rex that shot red Light beams from its eyes and mouth. In terms of Destructive Power alone, it was far Stronger than us."
"However, it was Encirclement and Suppression by the First Emperor with the Strength of the entire Empire, and finally lured into a Large Alchemy Array that had been set up in advance by over a hundred Alchemists."
"Afterward, the First Emperor also greatly Slaughtered Destarugul's Tribe, just to collect their Eyeballs to enhance the Supreme Imperial Arm's Attack Power."
"About seven years ago, This Old Man sensed a nascent God Spirit Aura appearing within the Empire Continent. Although it was still very young, it was indeed very similar to Destarugul's Aura, but it suddenly disappeared again four years ago..."
While Shen He was narrating the past Matter in a deep voice.
The Imperial Guardian Mech below was still continuously unleashing crimson Energy Light Bullets in all directions, some even flying towards the Imperial Homeland, not knowing which unlucky souls would be affected.
"What should we do now?"
Kaido, maintaining his Azure Dragon Form, with his Limbs stepping on the fiercely burning Flame Clouds, looked at the Sea Surface below where one red Energy Mass after another was rising.
He felt that this Combat couldn't continue.
Not to mention that it was originally a Sparring session aimed at Friendly Exchange, no one would really fight to the death.
Moreover, Kaido had no interest in a Combat that required teaming up to determine Victory or Defeat.
The Old Dragon said, "Find a Method to make the Emperor inside the Imperial Guardian Mech lose Consciousness!"
"Worororo~~"
Kaido burst into laughter upon hearing this: "That's simple! This Old Man will go make him sleep!" Saying that, he directly swooped down.
"This is..."
The Old Dragon looked at his Action with Doubt, while Borsalino on the side curled his lips.
He had already guessed what that guy Kaido was going to do. Conqueror's Haki or whatever, he wouldn't be envious~~
At the same time.
The Imperial Guardian Mech, which was fiercely battling Garp and Newgate, subconsciously sensed the Commotion above its Head.
Seeing Kaido flying down, it roared without a word and opened its mouth to spray out a brilliant red Light Energy Bullet.
[Whoosh————]
Kaido quickly twisted his Dragon Body to dodge using his Future Sight Ability.
He couldn't take this kind of attack, which was enough to destroy a medium-sized Island.
Even if he took it, he would likely be injured.
"Behave yourself! What damn Imperial Emperor!!"
[Roar!!]
The next moment, Kaido let out a Roar, unleashing surging Conqueror's Haki.
"Roar——————"
The Imperial Guardian Mech, which had completely undergone Tyrannosaurus Transformation, immediately let out an extremely painful Roar as its Head came into contact with the Mental Shockwave, which swept down like wind and Waves, carrying a large amount of Dark Red Lightning.
The Emperor inside was also the same, tightly covering his Head and struggling frantically, but he seemed to be just short of falling into a Coma.
Moreover, this also made the Imperial Guardian Mech even more violent.
Both its mouth and the Eyeballs all over its Body began to release Energy Bullets and Energy Beams at a more dense Frequency.
For a Time, the Sky above the East Blue was enveloped in red Aura.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 665: The Imperial Arms World on the Verge of Destruction?!
"Gurararara~~"
"Looks like Kaido kid's Conqueror's Haki isn't enough!"
Seeing this scene, 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate laughed heartily without haste. He then stomped forward fiercely, and the thick Ice Layer beneath his feet instantly cracked with a bang.
"You've made quite a ruckus, Emperor from another world————"
He roared, unleashing his inner Haki without reservation, completely and thoroughly.
In an instant.
An incredibly powerful Force Field Aura poured out from his nearly seven-meter-tall body.
It was like visible Gale, mixed with crackling Black Lightning, sweeping across the vast Zone ahead like an overwhelming tide.
Wherever it passed, whether it was the Rock Formation Fragments of the Island or the thick, extremely Frozen Ice Layer, everything was shattered layer by layer.
The Heaven and Earth, which were originally bathed in Sunlight due to 'Eternal Day', became dim and blurry in the blink of an eye. Even the Air vibrated violently, causing genuine Unease.
Just from this Scene, the Momentum was indeed much greater than Kaido's earlier.
However.
The Imperial Guardian Mech, which had just about recovered from the Impact of the previous Conqueror's Haki, saw the familiar Force Field Aura pushing towards it again and immediately became enraged, roaring loudly.
The current Imperial Guardian Mech, along with the Imperial Emperor inside, had been completely taken over by the instinctive Consciousness of Destarugul.
It was hard to imagine what kind of powerful Aura and tough Consciousness the First Emperor possessed back then to be able to Control such a terrifying Super Dangerous Beast.
"Roar!!!"
The completely Dragon Transformationed Imperial Guardian Mech, instead of dodging, let out its fiercest Tyrant Dragon Roar towards Newgate's Direction.
The enormous sound formed a substantial Sound Wave, pushing the Air along its path to create a real Gale, directly colliding with the Wave-like Conqueror's Haki.
"Does it also have Conqueror's Haki?"
This Scene caused Garp, Sakazuki, Kaido, and other Powerhouses from the World Government side to show expressions of surprise.
But when everyone saw that Newgate's Conqueror's Haki only lasted in a Standoff with it for less than two seconds before overwhelmingly sweeping past, they all realized it was a misunderstanding.
It turned out that the Imperial Guardian Mech's Roar was just a Sound Wave with a certain degree of Dragon Might.
Although it looked very similar to Conqueror's Haki, and its effect was also similar in that it could cause weaker individuals to feel Fear and flee in panic, there was still a fundamental difference.
"Conqueror's Haki?"
Dragon God Wa in the High Altitude keenly noticed this Term.
At the same Time.
The Dragon Transformationed Imperial Guardian Mech below was suffering a more violent Mental Shock. This Strength, which targeted biological Consciousness, caused it extreme Suffering.
But just like before.
It screamed and raged, but there was no trend of quieting down.
This made Edward Newgate's Expression turn gloomy. He hadn't expected that even his Conqueror's Haki couldn't make the opponent faint.
Since Roger left, his Conqueror's Haki should be the Strongest...
Uh, no, except for that person.
"According to our country's Historical Records, when the Empire's Supreme Imperial Arm was manufactured, a complete Philosopher's Stone was used!"
"Coupled with the Biological Material containing most of Destaguru's Flesh and Blood Bones, which retained a relatively complete instinctive Consciousness, a Mental Aspect Impact cannot have much effect..."
Dean Isaac, who had flown into Mid-air using Air Current, muttered to himself.
Although he didn't know much about Conqueror's Haki, as a top Alchemist, he could still feel the powerful Spiritual Power contained within it.
So he immediately Understood what Kaido and Newgate wanted to do.
But just as Dean Isaac said.
Trying to use the Mental Shock of Conqueror's Haki to stun the Consciousness of a Super Dangerous Beast supported by a 'complete Philosopher's Stone' was clearly impossible.
Or rather, Kaido and Newgate's Conqueror's Haki was not enough...
On the other side.
The Imperial Guardian Mech opened its mouth again, condensing a ball of brilliant Aura Energy within.
It was its 'Supreme Energy Bullet', comparable to an 'Ancient Weapon', and its Target was Edward Newgate in the distance.
But the next second.
A Black Lightning shot up from below, heavily striking its opened lower jaw, causing the Energy that had just appeared a few seconds ago to explode in its mouth due to being forcefully closed.
"Shut up, you big stupid Dragon! This Old Man won't let you run wild anymore!"
Garp, standing in Mid-air by continuously using Moonwalk, looked at the Imperial Guardian Mech that he had punched, causing it to stagger backward, and snorted with a grim Expression.
However, he also didn't know how to make the opponent quiet down now.
Destroy it directly?
The people inside would definitely not be happy, and then that guy Sengoku would get angry at him again.
Moreover, putting aside the Difficulty of destroying the Imperial Guardian Mech, if it affected the Imperial Emperor inside, that would also be a big trouble.
The opponent was the ruler of the first Great Nation from another world that was about to join the World Government. It wouldn't be appropriate for him to die at their hands for any reason.
Don't look at Garp acting carefree all day, as if he doesn't even care about the Celestial Dragons.
But he Understood everything in his Heart.
Similarly.
The other people present also knew this Principle.
"Then let's Control it first! It can't continue like this, otherwise, this World will be destroyed by it!"
Yomi Tsukahara, Sword Saint was relatively close to Dean Isaac. After hearing his words, he quickly shouted loudly to the surroundings, because he knew he couldn't do it himself.
But this place had gathered the top-tier existences from two Worlds.
There must be a Method.
"Alright, let's all attack together..."
Dragon God Wa, as the Great Elder of this World in a practical sense, was arguably the Human who least wanted the Imperial Guardian Mech to continue its Destruction.
Fearing that one of the Powerhouses from the World Government side might refuse, he quickly stepped forward first, preparing to take the lead.
At the same Time, he released dense White Strings towards the Imperial Guardian Mech below.
However.
The Fact proved that he was overthinking.
Sakazuki and the others clearly Understood how much Value the Imperial Arms World had for the World Government.
Their Target was the Myriad Worlds, the Sea of Stars. They needed to assemble all the Strength that could strengthen their own Influence and Strength, so naturally, they wouldn't watch the Imperial Arms World, which was about to join them, continue to suffer Destruction.
To put it bluntly.
The moment the Star Gate opened to this World, they had already regarded everything in this World as belonging to the World Government.
One could only say, this is very Pirate...
"ICE AGE————"
Kuzan immediately released a rolling Wave-like Cold Air towards the Imperial Guardian Mech.
"Feel the Darkness of the Sea, Destarugul!"
Heimalin, not far away, also roared and stirred up a huge Tsunami carrying dense Black Mist.
[Rumble!]
When the two merged into one mid-way, quickly forming a Black Ice Tide that continuously rolled forward, it Frozen the Dragon Transformationed Imperial Guardian Mech in Black Ice Crystal in the blink of an eye.
Immediately after.
A large amount of Strings descending from the High Altitude wrapped around the outer layer of the Ice Crystal, turning it into an extra-large 'White Cocoon'.
Finally.
The 'Tyrant Dragon', which had been madly venting its endless Rage, quieted down. This caused the entire area of the East Blue that was Frozen to fall into silence.
As for the others.
They truly had no further Means to strengthen the restraint, so they could only silently watch and quietly await the Result.
But just when everyone subconsciously let out a sigh of relief.
A crisp cracking sound appeared!
Thank you very much to reader 'Gu Sheng Steward' for the 1500 Qidian Coin Tip! Bow! Thank you for your Encouragement and Support!
(End of this chapter)
# Chapter 666: Has That Man Arrived?!
That sound tugged at the heartstrings of hundreds of millions of Audience.
Especially the Citizens living in the Imperial Arms World, even those residing in The Empire and Shenhe Island Nation. One second they had just shown expressions of relief, the next, terror resurfaced on their faces.
This was because the various Energy Bullet or Energy Beam attacks the Imperial Guardian Mech had fired indiscriminately earlier, while most had landed in the vast and boundless Great Sea, but some that flew north and west had successively fallen within the borders of the two nations.
Some 'lucky' people had even witnessed streaks of red Meteor dragging long fiery tails as they flew over cities.
Not long after, they could feel the Ground subtly shaking, and when a strong Wind blew, they could hear the Roar of explosions in their ears. They knew this was the Commotion caused by the 'Meteor' landing.
No one knew which mountain or which Town had suffered.
Of course, there were also some 'more lucky' people who, having done nothing at all, simply saw a dazzling red Aura fall from overhead, and then... and then they were gone.
This had caused the nerves of the Citizens in both nations to be constantly strained during this period.
Everyone gathered in Open Ground, trembling as they looked up at the wildly rampaging Imperial Guardian Mech on the large Virtual Screen.
The Citizens of The Empire felt the most complex emotions.
Because according to the introduction by the World Government's Propaganda Department commentator, that was their own Supreme Imperial Arm, and the operator was also their own His Majesty the Emperor.
\[Click, click, click...]
However, the unfolding reality would not change because of people's Fear and Nervousness. Streaks of crimson Light continuously shone through the 'White Cocoon'.
Until, with a Loud Noise and a Roar, a dazzling red Aura exploded, swallowing all the Black Ice Crystal and white Divine Dragon Strings.
"Roar——————"
The familiar Tyrannosaurus Roar reappeared. The Dragon Transformation Imperial Guardian Mech swung its thick, long Dragon Tail, constantly roaring at the Powerhouses around it.
It seemed to be showing off, and also provoking.
However, its appearance was much more battered than before.
The Blue Coat and purple skirt armor it originally wore had vanished without a trace.
The platinum, blue, and white Metal military cap and black Metal Armor were completely red, with some edges even showing signs of melting.
Clearly, the Energy it had released to break free had also caused it some damage, after all, this wasn't a virtual game where there was a setting for friendly fire immunity.
Of course, it did have a certain level of resistance.
But this also left Newgate, Garp, Sakazuki, and the others unsure of what to do.
For a time, everyone could only cope with the Imperial Guardian Mech's various violent attacks while having Kuzan, Heimalin, Divine Dragon, and Dean Isaac continue to try and restrain the opponent.
Even temporary Restraint was better than letting it keep going berserk.
Meanwhile, the Higher-ups of the World Government's Otherworld Strategy Committee, the Military's Command Department, CIPHER POL Headquarters, and other Departments were also thinking of a Method to solve the problem.
The Main Body Strength of this Imperial Guardian Mech was similar to their Admirals, but the Destructive Power of its 'Supreme Energy Bullet' was comparable to the legendary 'Dark King'.
The only issue was that the condensation Time for its release was a bit long, making it easy for beings of the same level to dodge.
It could be said to be a pure War Weapon.
So, how could they Control it without destroying it, and while trying their best not to harm the Emperor inside?
Or, how could they make the Emperor inside regain consciousness?
Kaido and Newgate had already confirmed that Conqueror's Haki was ineffective.
This problem truly stumped everyone.
Just as the Five Elders in the Room of Authority at Holy Land Mary Geoise were also frowning deeply, looking at the chaotic Battle Situation on the Screen Feed and lost in Thought, the Golden Den Den Mushi on the Coffee Table suddenly began to Purururu.
Imperial Arms World.
The World gradually fell into an Atmosphere as if Doomsday was approaching. An Atmosphere of Unease spread through The Empire, Shenhe, and even the distant Alchemy Kingdom.
The ignorant lower-class Citizens were unaware of the World Government's various concerns.
They only saw the 'Deity' figures in the Screen Feed, who had previously displayed Natural Disaster-like power, now surrounding the rampaging Imperial Guardian Mech, completely helpless.
Although they could freeze it occasionally, it would break free from the ominous red Aura every time.
Even the 'well-informed' Audience from the Sea Star Mainland felt a sense of disbelief at this moment.
They had already Familiarized themselves quite well with these Admirals of the World Government.
Especially 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate, and the former 'Marine Hero', now Marine Headquarters Admiral, Monkey D. Garp.
These two were already famous in the past, and in recent years, they had become household names.
But now, even they seemed to have no Method, let alone the other four Admiral Level Combat Power individuals present.
This was enough to elevate the Imperial Guardian Mech's Strength to an extremely high Status in the hearts of the Sea Star People.
What now?
This question instantly circled in the minds of the Citizens of the five Worlds, and even Sakazuki, Kuzan, and the others.
It was still the same point.
Destroying the Imperial Guardian Mech was not difficult. The difficulty was how to make it stop without destroying it!
"This is really a bit tricky now..."
Garp first sighed helplessly, then casually slapped away an incoming red Aura Energy Beam with a bang, sending it elsewhere.
For them, as long as it wasn't a 'Supreme Energy Bullet', it posed no threat.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Garp noticed a shadow cast overhead, which surprised him greatly. "Didn't Borsalino activate his Awakening? Why are there Dark Clouds?"
Newgate, Sakazuki, Kuzan, and the others in other locations also instinctively looked up in surprise.
And Borsalino, who was already at High Altitude, was the first person to look overhead.
His Eyes under his yellow Sunglasses suddenly widened, and shock filled his entire face.
The expressions of the others who saw it subsequently, as well as the Super Dangerous Beasts from the Imperial Arms World like Shenhe, Heimalin, and Bulat, were all the same.
And the Audience from various Worlds who, following the Den Den Mushi on the Flying Warships, looked higher up under the Control of the Propaganda Department Officials and witnessed the Screen Feed, were also stunned as if instantly turned to Petrification.
What did they see?
They saw a Green Sky Gate open up in the clear blue Sky, a Gate so large it was beyond description, seeming to completely occupy the Sky above, yet slowly opening to both sides...
What was even more terrifying was that from the Green Space within that 'Sky Gate', a white object was pushed out, something that looked like a Ship, but was excessively huge...
When its front part, the part that looked like a Bow, entered this World, instantly, the Golden Emblem on its pure white surface was reflected in all the trembling gazes.
It was a golden pattern composed of a perfect circle and four sharp, elongated triangles, seemingly the palm print of some kind of Creature.
The Citizens of the other Otherworlds might not Understand.
But many people on Sea Star recognized it at a glance, and because they recognized it, they involuntarily showed Fear, and even trembled all over.
The symbol of the World Noble, the Celestial Dragons!
The Heavenly Soaring Dragon's Hoof!
"That is..."
'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate's Pupils suddenly contracted.
His right hand gripping the Murakumogiri Sword Hilt tightened even further, causing its Blade to seemingly recall the Suffering of the past, trembling and wailing faintly.
"Has that man arrived..."
