"Unworthy pests!" Effie coldly remarked as she watched Malerski's shattered remains dissipate into nothingness.
With a flick of her hand, she turned her attention to the massive starship that should have been destroyed long ago. She pushed forward with her divine power, sending a tidal wave of energy coursing through the air.
The gargantuan warship, as large as a mountain, roared forward, heading straight toward Dormammu's enormous skull. Surrounding it were numerous smaller ships, coming in like a storm, all targeting Dormammu.
"Destroy it!" Effie shouted, her fist clenched tightly.
With a swift motion, a towering white pillar of light erupted from her hand, as thick as a mountain, resembling a comet streaking across the starry sky. It cut through the space around it, distorting everything it touched with the searing heat of the light.
The dark elven fleet was no match for the power of the light. Ships exploded one after another, bursting into flames and colliding with Dormammu's skull.
However, the immense attack seemed to have no effect on Dormammu, who remained completely unaffected.
"Heh, weak humans. No matter what you try, you will never be my match. A firefly's light can never compare to the brilliance of the full moon," Dormammu sneered, before unleashing a devastating wave of dark energy toward Effie.
It was fast, faster than anything Effie could dodge. Just as it seemed like the attack would hit her, a flash of brilliance appeared in front of her.
A figure rushed forward and struck the incoming dark energy with a powerful punch.
Boom!
An explosive burst of flame erupted from the figure's fist, crashing into Dormammu's dark energy. The resulting shockwave shook the very foundations of the universe, sending ripples through the skies.
Effie was momentarily stunned before recognizing the figure—none other than the junior True God, Akira.
"Such power... No wonder Dormammu is the ruler of the Dark Dimension!" Akira exclaimed, his voice filled with awe as he withdrew his fist.
"Effie, are you alright?" Akira asked, looking back at her with concern.
Effie quickly shook her head, "I'm fine. It was close, but thanks to you, the situation didn't get worse."
"I came as soon as I heard your call. Let's work together and deal with this guy!" Akira extended his hand to Effie.
Effie nodded and grasped his hand, rising to her feet. Just then, divine light descended from above.
One by one, the sisters arrived, surrounding Effie. Seeing them, Effie's face lit up with confidence.
With her sisters by her side, their collective strength would be enough to challenge Dormammu. Even this mighty foe would have to reconsider.
"Effie, are you alright?"
"We're here for you, Effie!"
A chorus of voices surrounded her, as the sisters gathered close, concern written on their faces.
Effie smiled warmly, though her expression grew more serious as she spoke. "I'm fine. But this is getting complicated. Dormammu somehow infiltrated our estate and stole the Reality Stone. Now he's no longer afraid of the Time Stone. He wants to devour our world!"
"Devour our world? He'll have to ask us first, and more importantly, he'll have to ask our Lord!" Bismarck's voice rang out coldly as she stared into space at Dormammu.
"His realm is not to be defiled. No being can escape the judgment of our Lord's light. Prepare for battle!" Akira said, her voice filled with determination.
"That's right. I refuse to believe that with all of us here, we can't defeat this old fool. This battle must be fought!"
"We must fight!" The sisters echoed in unison.
A powerful aura erupted from the fleet of shipgirls, filling the air with pressure like thunderclaps. Their combined energies gathered, creating a force strong enough to challenge Dormammu, separating the world into two realms: the dark world of Dormammu and the radiant world of the shipgirls.
The spectators on Earth, seeing the immense pressure from both sides, instinctively fell to their knees in reverence, their faith in their protectors unwavering.
Dormammu, seeing the powerful auras gathering on Earth, could not hide his surprise. He had known about Earth's situation ever since he joined forces with Mephisto, but the growth of the Life Master's followers had been far more rapid than he had anticipated.
"You've all come at the right time. It's much easier than chasing you all around," Dormammu sneered.
Without warning, a tide of dark energy surged out from his Dark Dimension, rushing toward the shipgirls.
The shipgirls' faces grew solemn as they realized the attack was on the level of a mid-tier True God's power.
Could they stop it?
It was uncertain. But as they had said earlier, no one could defile the glory of the Life Master without facing judgment.
They had no choice but to fight.
Even if it meant death, they would fight!
The shipgirls roared in unison, their voices echoing through the skies as an overwhelming power erupted from them. The energy expanded, shaking the heavens.
Thunder rumbled, lightning flashed across the clouds, as if the very heavens were alive with the force of their power.
Together, they fired their strongest attacks toward Dormammu in the distant starry sky.
"Decay!"
"Rebirth Flames!"
"Frost Power!"
"Star-Eater Cannon!"
"Ultimate Weapon Apollo!"
The heavens trembled at the sheer might of their combined attack. Even the sun, moon, and stars seemed to tremble at their strength.
Bismarck and Akira, both of whom were junior True Gods, possessed planet-destroying strength in their own right. But facing Dormammu, a cosmic-level being who had obtained the Reality Stone, they realized their attacks were futile.
A crimson flash swept through the air as their most powerful strike turned into bubbles, disintegrating into nothingness.
That was the power of the Reality Stone.
Once one possesses it, the laws of science are rendered useless. Reality itself can be bent to one's will, transforming thoughts into reality.
The Reality Stone was the most powerful and practical of the six Infinity Stones, and with it, Dormammu's strength had become unstoppable.
"How is this possible?" Bismarck exclaimed in disbelief. "Our attack... turned into bubbles?"
Effie's face twisted with regret as she realized her mistake. "Damn it... I was so careless. How could I lose the stone? I've committed a grave mistake!"
"Heh, such fascinating power!" Dormammu murmured, eyes gleaming with greed. "With this, I can extend my dark world to every corner of the universe. Perhaps it is finally within my reach!"
Even someone like Dormammu, a supreme being of the Dark Dimension, was captivated by the stone's power.
He had known of the Infinity Stones for ages, but they were elusive. No one could sense them, and finding them was as difficult as searching for a needle in a haystack.
It wasn't until he learned that the Dark Elves were seeking a powerful artifact, which he later deduced was likely one of the Infinity Stones, that he took interest.
Dormammu knew the dark elves had once possessed one of the stones and had knowledge of secrets unknown to others, including how to find the stones.
It was through this knowledge that Dormammu eventually got his hands on the Reality Stone.
With it, his power was greatly enhanced, making him a true threat to the Life Master and his followers.
But the shipgirls refused to give up.
Realizing that their attacks had no effect, they joined forces once again. This time, instead of attacking with their fists, they released their divine energy, channeling it all into Bismarck.
Suddenly, a massive divine figure, resembling Bismarck, appeared in the starry sky, towering over Dormammu's skull. The two figures were of equal size, standing as equals in the vast cosmos.
But Dormammu sneered, "You think a humble avatar will be enough to match me?"
He laughed maniacally. "How laughable. A firefly dares to challenge the full moon. You are courting death!"
With those words, a massive dark energy sphere, the size of Earth itself, shot toward Bismarck's divine avatar.
As the dark energy drew near, the shipgirls' faces filled with determination.
"We will not allow this!" they cried in unison, their divine power converging into a massive white energy sphere of equal size to the dark energy ball.
With their spirits ablaze, they hurled their combined force at Dormammu's attack, determined to fight until the very end.
