"Where did you get this confidence from? You know nothing, so please don't speak as if you know . My soul and blood are devoted to the Great Serpent Empire!" The smile on the Seventh Prince's face gradually faded. "Secondly, I'm not like those three scum. Who said I must die? Maybe I have my own way of escaping the planetary spirit's reaction. Do you really want to test that out?"
Of course, he was lying. There was no such way, at least nothing that he knew of, and he certainly did not intend to sacrifice himself for anyone!
But if he could sohow deceive Sakaar into withdrawing his army from part of the southern region, for example, and destroy the portal in exchange for saving his life, he would have done the Empire a great service. The resources he could pull from the treasury would multiply!
"Yes, I do like to try," Sakaar laughed as if the matter were of no concern to him. The underworld Daisies around him began to shake violently.
"You... have you lost your mind? Don't you know what you're getting yourself into?" The Seventh Prince nearly lost his composure at Sakaar's cold reaction.
"I've faced that dark shadow before, I looked it right in the eyes when it started attacking," Sakaar said, shaking his head. "It's terrifying, sothing out of nightmares. That shadow wiped out half of my army in front of , and I couldn't do a thing about it. But... What do I have to fear?"
"...What are you talking about? You were there?" The Seventh Prince's eyelid twitched for a
mont...
Jabba had three direct monitoring arrays, but Robin Burton destroyed one of them during the Safe City battle, leaving him with only two. Later, when the Cataclysm Sealing Cubes were activated, Jabba had focused one array on Morin and his army, and the other on Hulak as they were in the most lethal locations in their eyes. They never saw what happened to Sakaar! When they later learned of his survival, they mocked the prince sent with the cube for failing to lock onto the target. One of them even suggested that perhaps Sakaar sensed the danger and quickly escaped through one of those annoying instant portals... But the way Sakaar spoke now suggested that sothing else had happened, sothing that could change everything he was planning for!
"Listen, I knew cowards like you would try to avoid the ground battle and target the portal, so I evacuated the army around here and stayed alone. If you want to use that cube, use it
already." Sakaar spoke seriously in his hoarse voice,
Before adding, "But here is a piece of advice for you, If you use it on , you'll waste your ti and life because I can easily escape from the shadow. It couldn't touch when I was using only 10% of the Blood Sea. So, what can it possibly do to now when fully prepared? And if you want to use it on the portal, feel free, but we've already built another one in the southern region, and we haven't activated it yet, so again, you'll waste your ti and life."
The mocking smile returned to Sakaar's face. "In either case, whether you manage to escape the planetary spirit's influence or not..." Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh "...you and everyone on this ship will not leave here alive, whether you activate the cube or not. It's over, the mont you though about coming here, you were already dead." Sakaar shook his head.
"...?!" The Seventh Prince quickly looked around. The speed of the underworld daisies was blinding. Before he could do anything, the daisies spun rapidly and surrounded him and the mothership in an instant. Sakaar could rain them down with just a thought, and if the mothership tried to use its maximum speed to escape, it would crash into them, causing it to crash just the sa!
"...Sakaar, demon commander, do you think you've won now? Do you think I can't do anything to you now?!" The Seventh Prince's energy flared, and his aura as a level 48 Martial Emperor was revealed to everyone. Even the terrified soldiers inside the mother ship were stunned and relieved by this revelation!
"..." But Sakaar didn't seem overly impressed. He simply raised his hand, then moved a single finger Whoosh.
An underworld daisy accelerated it spinning around its axis, its multiple petals becoming like saw blades, then shot toward the Seventh Prince!
"You'll pay for underestimating !!" The humiliation the Seventh Prince felt was indescribable. The daisy Demon Commander Sakaar had chosen to attack with was the furthest one from the battlefield, aning he was deliberately giving him ti to prepare! "Yeaaaah!!" The Seventh Prince placed the dark cube under his left armpit, then extended his right palm fully. A boundless flow of purple mist poured out of his palm and transford into the shape of a five-horned snake. It was the manifestation of Durger the Devourer! This was the powerful attack used by every Marshal when cornered, and the Seventh Prince had chosen it from the start!
"Rooooaar!!" The great snake's manifestation let out a powerful roar, then surged forward, ready to tear Sakaar apart!
But...
Whoooosh Boom.
The daisy pierced through the great snake's head and ca out the other side, then continued its path toward the Seventh Prince.
"This is bad!" The Seventh Prince didn't have ti to be astonished. He quickly raised the Cataclysm Sealing Cube in front of the underworld daisy.
Ding The cube succeeded in stopping the daisy, but the shock sent the Seventh Prince backward.
Whoosh.
"Stop, damn it!" The Seventh Prince felt a twinge of fear when he noticed that the daisy didn't stop after the collosion. It bounced off the cube, then spun to the side and attacked him from another angle, then again, and again!!
"AH!!" Holding the cube as a shield, the Seventh Prince tried to strike the daisy multiple tis with an epic dagger at his waist and managed to slice off a few petals each ti. After a full minute he finally managed to cut it in half and stop its rapid spinning.
Whoosh Whoosh After it was destroyed, a large amount of blood spilled onto the ground, it made a pool big enough to have its own ecosystem! That bond stayed on the ground for only a mont before it flew back toward Sakaar. Then it compressed, reforming into a new daisy ready for action.
"Hoof... hoof..." The Seventh Prince panted heavily as he watched the scene, how could such an enormous amount of blood be compressed into a small flower the size of a palm?!
"....!!" The soldiers and even the martial emperors inside the warship felt the blood freeze in their veins. Up until this mont, they had been waiting for orders from the Seventh Prince to exit the ship and engage the enemy, but now, they wouldn't budge from their positions even
if they received the signal!
Whoosh
Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh
"No!!" Dozens, even hundreds of thousands of daisies increased their spinning speed, rapidly circling around the ship and the Seventh Prince like hornets. The sight of these things closing
in sent a chill to the bone!
"No need to feel bad, little imperial guard. After my previous battle with the fleet, then facing that damned shadow, I felt the need to adjust my approach a little," Sakaar advanced confidently, placing his hands behind his back. "The underworld daisies are strong in groups, but they're individually weak, and that won't do against a strong opponent."
He continued, "So, I divided the amount of blood among the daisies unequally and compressed them at different ratios. So of these daises are ordinary, while others contain 10% of the Blood Sea, and one of them contains 30%!"
Then Sakaar laughed and leaned forward slightly, "... You tried one with 5%, how about trying one with 10%?"
"Hoof... hoof..." The Seventh Prince's eyes darted around frantically for a mont, desperately seeking an escape, but to no avail... He straightened up, abandoning his offensive stance, and sighed. "...State your terms. Clearly, if you wanted to kill , I would already be dead, but I'm still alive. What do you want for to leave?"
Sakhar's expression turned slightly harsher as he pointed to the Seventh Prince's left hand.
"Give that thing."
