"Hmm?"
"What's going on?"
Saint Rimoshifu, sitting on a rock, looked toward the distance with a puzzled expression. "Why can't my Nightmare Creatures revive directly anymore?"
Under normal circumstances, his Nightmare Creatures could revive—this was the powerful aspect of his Devil Fruit Ability.
But now they couldn't revive directly?
"Could it be because of that special ability of the Blood-Eyed Ninja?" Saint Rimoshifu muttered. That ability that could even counter Elental Transformation might indeed be capable of countering his ability as well.
Hmm, it might even be possible that their Undying Body could be restricted!
While thinking this, Saint Rimoshifu activated his Devil Fruit Ability, dispersing the defeated Nightmare Creatures on the other side, turning them into scattered Nightmare Energy.
Then, Saint Rimoshifu extracted a large amount of Nightmare Energy from the Nightmare Nest and manipulated it to rush toward the distant battlefield.
After doing this, Saint Rimoshifu sneered, "Although your ability can counter the Undying Body, if I abandon that portion of Nightmare Energy, your ability should beco ineffective!"
Blood-Eyed Ninja... Hmph, let's see what you'll do this ti!
After sneering, Saint Rimoshifu turned his gaze to the distant battlefield, intending to see what the opponent would do next.
"They actually disappeared?"
iser, who had just been about to attack Gunko, looked in surprise at the place where the black Giant and dragon had vanished. "Did they deactivate their ability?"
Knowing that those things were useless against him, so they deactivated the ability?
That possibility couldn't be ruled out.
"It seems our assumptions were correct," Gunko murmured. "This guy's ability is indeed sowhat sinister."
If it could make Saint Rimoshifu's Nightmare Creatures lose their revival ability... that ant the opponent's ability could counter their Undying Body!
Thinking this, Gunko created so distance between herself and iser.
Just at that mont, iser below launched an attack against Gunko.
"Whoosh"
The enormous pale golden spear was thrown by him, heading straight for Gunko in the air!
Seeing this, Gunko imdiately activated her Devil Fruit Ability without hesitation.
In the next mont, an arrowhead appeared beside Gunko, then slamd hard into iser's TiPiercingSpearOfToki!
Then, sothing strange happened.
The huge pale golden spear, as if affected by so special force, instantly changed its attack direction.
iser: ???
Watching the TiPiercingSpearOfToki fly sideways along the arrowhead, question marks appeared above iser's head.
"What happened? Did I miss?" iser wondered.
No... that's not right!
With his control, it was impossible to miss!
So... was it because of that strange arrowhead?
Thinking this, iser focused his gaze on the peculiar arrowheads floating around Gunko.
'What kind of ability is this?' iser wondered to himself.
"It looks like an arrowhead made of bandages... Bandage Fruit? Or Arrow-Arrow Fruit?"
After pondering for a mont, iser asked, "What kind of Devil Fruit Ability User are you?"
"I have no reason to tell you," Gunko replied calmly.
Hearing her words, a strange look appeared in iser's eyes.
'How is this person different from other ability users?' iser wondered inwardly. Previously, most ability users he encountered would announce their abilities before battle, yet this person...
It seed she was a cautious individual.
Since she didn't intend to answer, iser didn't press further.
Then, he thought to himself: 'That thing looks like an arrowhead made of bandages... So she's probably a Bandage Fruit or Arrow-Arrow Fruit ability user.'
However, iser felt the latter was more likely, especially since... she had just altered the trajectory of his TiPiercingSpearOfToki!
Considering this, the probability of it being an arrow-related ability increased.
Seeing iser halt his attacks, Gunko shifted her attention to the other Nightmare Creatures and iser's Shadow Clones.
'To create so many clones at once... As expected of a Blood-Eyed Ninja.'
It seed unlikely she could rely on Saint Rimoshifu's Nightmare Creatures to defeat him.
At that mont, iser hurled another TiPiercingSpearOfToki at Gunko, aiming to pierce through her body.
Yet again, it narrowly missed her.
"Useless," Gunko stated calmly. "Your attacks will never hit ."
As long as she detected an attack, she could use the power of her Arrow-Arrow Fruit to alter its direction!
"It seems my assumption was correct," iser said, staring at Gunko. "You're an Arrow-Arrow Fruit ability user, aren't you?"
Gunko fell silent for a mont before replying indifferently, "Sorry, you guessed wrong."
"Even if not, it's close enough," iser retorted.
Perhaps the na differed, but the ability was likely similar to what he imagined.
Just then, iser's Mangekyō Sharingan detected a strange energy erging from the ground.
"Hmm?"
Glancing at the rapidly approaching dark energy, iser frowned. "What the hell is this now?"
Why were the Celestial Dragon guards' abilities all so bizarre?
With that thought, iser materialized another TiPiercingSpearOfToki and thrust it downward!
"Clang!"
"Boom!!"
The strike carved an enormous crater into the ground!
"Rumble!"
Surrounding buildings shook violently from the impact, eventually cracking and collapsing!
"Boom!"
"Hurry!"
"Get away!"
The guards, feeling the ground tremble, fled in terror, fearing being struck by falling debris.
As for whether they'd be punished for fleeing...
That was the least of their concerns now!
After all... that level of combat was far beyond their involvent!
anwhile, the slaves roared upon witnessing the scene.
"Quick, the guards are in disarray—kill them!"
"Kill!"
"Follow the divine one and fight our way out!"
"Roar!!"
With their morale steadily rising, the slaves began charging toward the guards with furious shouts, intending to eliminate them and escape this place.
As for why these people insisted on calling iser "Lord God"...
A hero willing to rescue them from hell had summoned a sacred golden Giant, using its power to defeat the evil dark creatures...
Could such a being not be called Lord God?
"Kill!!"
"They've gone mad! These lunatics!"
Watching the crowd surge toward them, the guards' eyes flickered with panic as they instinctively retreated. But after considering the consequences of letting the slaves escape, they gritted their teeth and charged forward again.
"The Five Elders have commanded: execute all escaping slaves! Leave none alive!"
"Don't let these slaves get away! Slaughter them!"
"Charge!!"
Upon learning this was the decree from those five esteed figures, the guards' eyes burned crimson as they lunged at the slaves.
Soon, the two groups collided again, engaging in brutal combat!!
At that mont, a slave stared into the distance in shock and exclaid, "What the hell is that?!"
From his perspective, a strange black energy mass had risen from the ground, continuously contorting!
The energy mass then expelled a portion of itself before devouring the remaining black energy erging from the earth.
After completing this act, the black energy began violently shuddering.
"What fresh horror is this?" iser frowned at the bizarre energy mass. "Another dark creature?!"
Under iser's gaze, the black energy convulsed intensely, gradually coalescing into a bodily form until it fully transford into the Giant from earlier!!
iser: !!!
Witnessing the black Giant's resurrection, iser's eyes flashed with astonishnt.
"It survived?!"
His Sharingan clearly confird this was the sa entity he had slain earlier.
But the question was... how had it revived?
Not only that, even the head wound had completely vanished... How was this possible?
"To resurrect after being struck by my 'Yomotsu Hirasaka' ability..." iser murmured, "This truly exceeds my expectations."
Just then, iser recalled the black energy mass the creature had "spat out" earlier.
'If I'm not mistaken, that expelled energy was the shattered portion of its skull,' iser deduced internally.
'So it revived itself by replacing that damaged energy.'
Though it seed implausible, considering the peculiar nature of Devil Fruit Abilities, iser found the explanation logical.
'It appears completely defeating these creatures won't be easy,' iser ntally noted.
Should I hunt down the Devil Fruit Ability User?
With this thought, iser scanned his surroundings, attempting to locate the hidden Devil Fruit Ability User.
But his search proved futile—he detected no enemy who resembled a Devil Fruit Ability User.
"That makes sense. Soone with this kind of ability should have a relatively fragile true body," iser thought to himself. "So it's normal for them to hide.
In that case... I'll have to eliminate these guys first!
That should force the opponent to transmit energy over, allowing to follow the trail back to them!"
Having reached this conclusion, iser nodded firmly.
Just then, the black giant's form stabilized completely, and it charged toward iser with its massive sword.
"Roar!"
The resurrected dragon in the distance roared defiantly before flapping its wings and charging at iser, opening its bloody maw to bite down!
"Perfect timing!" iser shouted.
As he spoke, iser manipulated Susanoo to swing the TiPiercingSpearOfToki, striking hard against the black giant's greatsword.
Simultaneously, he threw a backhand punch that connected with the black dragon's tooth!
"Clang!"
"Boom!"
The collision between the greatsword and the pale golden spear imdiately created a terrifying shockwave that sent surrounding debris flying.
anwhile, the dragon had its front tooth shattered by iser's punch, sending it flying backward!
"Whoosh~"
"CRASH!!"
It smashed into the ground, creating a massive crater!
After dealing with this, iser turned his attention to the black giant, saying, "Now let ..."
"Did you forget about ?!" Gunko shouted from mid-air.
As her voice echoed, nurous arrowheads infused with Haki appeared in the air before raining down on the ground like teors!
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
The relentless attacks rcilessly pounded everything on the battlefield below!
Slaves, guards, clones, nightmare creatures—all fell within Gunko's attack range!
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"BOOM!!"
"ARGH!!"
"Sir, we're Mary Geoise guards! Why are you killing us too?!"
"Dammit, I don't want to die..."
"Save , soone save !!"
For a mont, countless screams filled the battlefield, chilling to the bone.
"What a terrifying woman," Saint Rimoshifu remarked, his lip twitching as he observed through the nightmare creatures. "Completely devoid of humanity..."
While the slaves deserved to die, the guards didn't.
Those guards were their trained dogs—killing too many would be troubleso!
Yet Gunko had attacked without rcy. Truly... an utterly cold-blooded woman.
Shaking his head, Saint Rimoshifu turned his attention to the Nightmare Nest and muttered, "To prevent that guy from locating , I'd better transmit the nightmare energy in advance."
With that thought, he activated his Devil Fruit Ability and sent out a considerable amount of nightmare energy.
After completing this task, Saint Rimoshifu turned his gaze into the distance.
"Heh heh~"
"Blood-Eyed Ninja, experience the might of our God's Knights firsthand!!" Saint Rimoshifu grinned.
As long as the nightmares of those sleeping people remained uninterrupted, he could continue using his ability indefinitely!
"Ahahahaha!"
"Aha..."
Saint Rimoshifu's laughter suddenly stopped, then his head tilted and he fell asleep.
Clearly, this was the side effect of his Devil Fruit Ability activating.
The Five Elders observing this scene imdiately showed exasperated expressions.
"Why has he fallen asleep again?" Saint Nusjuro frowned.
"That's just how the side effects of this Devil Fruit are," Saint Saturn said, rubbing his forehead.
This was precisely why he wasn't suitable for the front lines—he could fall asleep at any mont!
"Is there really no way to overco the side effects of the Devil Fruit Ability?!" Saint Mars exclaid.
If they could overco the side effects of the Devil Fruit Ability, even these old n could...
"At least not currently," Saint Saturn replied.
He had been researching this matter for many years, but the conclusion remained that it was uncontrollable, leaving him with no solution.
The other four fell silent upon hearing this, then sighed quietly in resignation.
It seed they had no choice but to continue enduring the damn side effects.
