Imu Saint, who had ruled the world for eight hundred years, had long forgotten this sense of crisis, making her instinctively want to cut off control of the pacifista, but she forcefully held back at the last moment.
After all,
the Game Merchant who suddenly appeared in the East Blue had completely broken the balance of this sea.
Over eight hundred years, countless hostile forces had challenged the World Government.
Ohara, which wanted to reveal the Void Century,
the Rocks Pirates, who attacked the Celestial Dragons,
Pirate King Roger, who reached the Final Island and ushered in the Great Pirate Era,
the Revolutionary Army, who resisted the World Nobles,
and those who had long been submerged in the river of history, like the Rubber Fruit, constantly fleeing and seeking a successor.
However,
the World Government, which ruled the Four Seas, was like the unshakeable Red Line, allowing these forces to rise suddenly and then quickly dissipate, unaffected in the slightest.
But this time seemed a little different.
The mystery and power of this visitor from another world had completely exceeded the understanding of this world.
Even Imu felt uncertain.
"I have never hidden my purpose; coming to the Pirate World is to recruit game players and hunt Pollution Monsters."
Fang Yi's voice slowly spread out,
more like an explanation to Imu, but rather to the entire Pirate World.
"Is there anything in the Pirate World worth such an existence as yourself being moved by?"
Seeing that the Game Merchant was willing to answer, Imu quickly continued to ask the doubts in her heart.
Devil Fruit, Ancient Weapon, continents submerged deep in the sea, super technology of the Ancient Kingdom?
"Of course."
Fang Yi had no need to lie; he was very interested in these items containing the origin.
Upon hearing the affirmative reply,
Imu slightly relaxed, then asked in confusion, "Since that's the case, why refuse cooperation with the World Government?"
"As long as Your Excellency is willing…"
"Expelling those pirates and the Revolutionary Army who cause chaos in the world, and only recruiting Marines and World Government members as players, the World Government will spare no effort to help Your Excellency find everything you desire!"
This was the power of the World Government.
A promise that the Five Elders had no right to make, but Imu Saint could.
Since the other party had something they needed in this sea, she, who had ruled the world for eight hundred years, had the confidence to negotiate with them.
"Do you remember what I said?"
Fang Yi looked directly at Imu Saint.
Even though they were separated by the vast ocean and the Red Line, the Game Merchant's gaze seemed to penetrate space, observing the entire Flower Room.
"The Reincarnation Game emphasizes absolute fairness."
"Whether it's slaves, commoners, or pirates and nobles, all have the qualifications to become players; as long as they can pay reward points and hunt Pollution Monsters, there is a possibility of becoming stronger."
Fang Yi withdrew his gaze and continued, "To me, any faction or bloodline, the identity of a Celestial Dragon? There is no difference."
The sense of scrutiny from Imu Saint disappeared.
She breathed a sigh of relief,
but it was immediately followed by a hint of annoyance.
Even acknowledging the Game Merchant's power, the other party actually said that she, who ruled the world, was no different from those pirates and slaves.
Before she could speak,
Fang Yi perceived her thoughts and said with a smile, "So, a world that is isolated and closed off is like a frog trapped in a deep well, unable to glimpse the true world."
"Is Your Excellency saying that I am ignorant?"
Imu Saint still maintained her outward composure.
The Game Merchant's powerful strength made her unwilling to fall out over such a matter, but her defiance and annoyance were real.
Fang Yi neither nodded nor denied, but instead asked, "The nobles of the Pirate World, were they obtained through effort?"
"Yes."
Imu Saint did not refute.
It was by defeating the Great Kingdom with the combined forces of nobles that the World Government, which ruled the Four Seas, could be created.
"So, have you ever seen a born deity?"
Fang Yi casually threw out a crystal-clear round bottle, which landed precisely in front of the pacifista.
Inside was a drop of Time River Water,
price: fifty thousand reward points.
Imu Saint did not hesitate, directly consuming the World Government's assets to exchange for fifty thousand reward points.
When she twisted open the cap and touched the Time River Water,
an immersive scene flooded into her mind.
In those scenes, there were Innate Deities born at the very beginning of the world, whom later life could never surpass no matter how they struggled. There were even hierarchies established when heaven and earth were first created: the God Realm nurtured the God Race, the Underworld nurtured the Underworld Race, and the Human Race could only be enslaved and driven…
Compared to the Celestial Dragons, who prided themselves as World Nobles,
those God Race were even more arrogant, enslaving humans, with all beings serving them. No… it could no longer be described with human emotions; in the dictionary of the God Race, there was no such emotion as arrogance. They were born to be high above, born noble.
Not by self-proclaiming through mighty power, nor by inheriting ancestral blessings… but by the world's protection!
"Innate Deities!"
A crazed laugh suddenly erupted in the Flower Room.
Imu Saint trembled violently, staring fixedly at those God Race with indifferent gazes, who viewed humans as ants.
If it were an ordinary person,
they would instinctively empathize with the oppressed humans and feel anger at the God Race's evil deeds.
But Imu Saint did not; she looked at those God Race with an almost reverent gaze, as if she were one of those sacred beings high in the clouds.
That's right.
Those beings should be called the God Race.
In comparison, the Celestial Dragons living in Mariejois were like a bunch of filthy monkeys dressed up as gods.
"God Race, there is such a race!"
Imu Saint's ripple-like pupils constricted, and she didn't recover until the Time River Water dissipated.
Rumble.
The entire vast Flower Room trembled, and Imu Saint's aura erupted completely.
Gazing at the throne above,
it had once been so sacred and inviolable in her heart, a treasure she had almost exhausted everything to seize.
But now,
Imu Saint's gaze towards the throne was only indifferent.
Rumble.
As her aura erupted again, the throne, under Imu Saint's gaze, turned into dust-filled fragments.
"In the end, it's just a pile of broken stones."
Imu Saint withdrew her gaze without any lingering attachment, continuing to control the pacifista, and eagerly asked, "Can those God Race… also be realized through the Reincarnation Game?"
A frantic desire constantly grew in her mind.
The earlier anger at being belittled had long been diluted by this desire.
God Race!
Their abode was not Pangea Castle and Mariejois built by slaves, but the Heavenly Realm, fully recognized by the world!
Not fat, big-headed fools wearing space suits, but sacred beings who obtained divine power from revelation!
And I, Imu Saint, will be the King of the God Race, ruling heaven and earth!
Meeting Imu Saint's expectant gaze, Fang Yi smiled and slowly said, "The Reincarnation Game can fulfill all wishes, including becoming a God Race."
Imu Saint's reaction was within his expectations.
The Celestial Dragons in the Pirate World were fake descendants of the Creator, personally created by Imu Saint, for the purpose of distinguishing them from ordinary people.
It was merely a clumsy imitation.
But the God Race in "Fengshen Ji" were truly favored beings!
It was no wonder that such a clumsy imitator like Imu Saint would have such a frantic desire.
