Chapter 232 While she's not at max level

The Revolutionary Army values ​​Esdeath highly, even more so than the Imperial Capital.

Although the Imperial Capital possesses the Supreme Imperial Arms, they also have other weapons that can determine victory.

Even if something can destroy an Imperial Arm, it may not be able to achieve its full effect, but it is enough to interfere with the Supreme Imperial Arm.

Given the chance, the Revolutionary Army does not want that weapon to be activated.

"This is Esdeath's intelligence." Chelsea handed a report to White Curtain, briefly describing the target's situation.

"Besides Esdeath, the enemy forces also include her three Beast Warriors, who are also Teigu users, but Esdeath remains the greatest threat."

Chelsea was happy that Whitebeard was willing to help; he wasn't a member of the Revolutionary Army, just a collaborator.

There's absolutely no need to take such a big risk to do this, but Chelsea believes the White Curtain will come to the rescue, not only because of Leone, but also because of 'Rota'.

"So I was the main force after all," Bai Mu said, looking at the very detailed intelligence report.

He didn't need to worry about the Three Beasts; the Revolutionary Army would handle them.

“It started with Akame.” Chelsea said, referring to another suitable candidate. Akame’s weapon would allow her to kill with a single blow, and even Esdeath could not ignore Murasame’s curse poison.

With sufficient friendly cover, the battle can be declared over as long as Esdeath is hit effectively even once.

Esdeath's army's morale is currently being sustained by her.

The revolutionary army intercepted intelligence coming from the capital, but not the negative intelligence.

If Esdeath falls, the morale of the Empire's army will immediately collapse.

Akame's Murasame is special against living beings, while Shiro's Observer is special against humans.

When Esdeath fought the White Veil, she was inevitably suppressed by that Imperial Arm.

Of course, the prerequisite for suppressing the opponent is that the white curtain is strong enough. If it were someone else, even if they had ten eyes on their body, they wouldn't be able to suppress them.

"Nothing else?"

White Curtain set the intelligence aside. The intelligence mainly concerned Esdeath's fighting style, which was summarized by the Revolutionary Army after many sacrifices.

"That's all. Get some rest. We'll be taking action tomorrow."

The Revolutionary Army had been preparing for a long time to deal with Esdeath.

"Good night then."

In the military camp, Esdeath, as usual, went to rest after finishing her duties with the army.

She wouldn't wait here much longer; there was no point in delaying any longer. Even if it meant some sacrifices for the army, it was better than staying here indefinitely.

"Najeshida, what exactly do you want?"

The next day, after the Revolutionary Army crossed the border, Esdeath noticed figures that shouldn't have been on the battlefield.

Seeing that the Night Raid Teigu user was also there, Esdeath smiled: "So this was preparation to deal with me? Very good!"

She became excited; the battle that followed was no longer a tug-of-war of mutual stalemate, but a decisive battle.

The capital city has probably lost all chance of victory, otherwise the revolutionary army would not have withdrawn its night raid forces.

Once she is dealt with, the revolutionary army's uprising will be considered a complete success, right?

“General, let us lead the charge,” Vali stepped forward and volunteered.

“No, you command the army, let me deal with them.” Esdeath wanted to experience the battle in its entirety.

The battle that Nadeshida had meticulously prepared for her.

“Yes!” Vali, one of the three beastmen, immediately accepted the order.

In the Revolutionary Army's ranks, Brand and Will greeted each other: "Hello, from now on we'll be comrades fighting side by side."

"I hope the Revolutionary Army won't become like the Empire in the future." Will's feelings were complicated. During his time as a prisoner, he had come into contact with many of the Empire's dark secrets.

From initial confusion to now joining the revolutionary army and fighting.

"At least not while we're alive."

“Perhaps…” Will looked at Esdeath’s army, whom he had once admired as the Imperial General.

We are now enemies.

"We need to deal with the three beastmen first."

"What? Aren't we the main force?" Brand's words startled Will, who was already prepared to fight Esdeath.

The thought of fighting one of the empire's strongest generals still made him feel incredibly excited.

Brand gave Will a polite smile. They weren't really the main force. Although they could provide support later, their main purpose was to deal with other interfering forces.

It will be time to deal with Esdeath later.

Before that, the White Curtain will deal with Esdeath.

"You need to be careful," Leone reminded Bai Mu. To ensure Bai Mu was in better combat condition, she hadn't visited him yesterday.

"Nothing will happen," Bai Mu replied, looking in another direction.

Borre was there too, but he was in charge of remote support; or rather, that's basically what the Bureau's operatives do.

The locals die, but they can't just die here. Their deaths cause new holes to appear in the alternate dream, so in war, they serve as a kind of oversight force.

Borei's role is that of a sniper.

The other party had already spoken with Bai Mu last night, meaning that he shouldn't be too reckless. Although Bai Mu is very powerful, it would be a waste for him to die here.

There are many humans who possess special powers, but top-tier powerhouses are few and far between. Bai Mu may not be a top-tier powerhouse, but he is exceptionally skilled in combat.

When White Curtain can kill the Great Demon in one go, Borei won't be too surprised; in fact, it would be a good thing.

So far, humanity doesn't have many forces capable of easily defeating the aliens.

It's not that you can't learn magic or other skills, but rather that real humans aren't very compatible with learning many power systems.

The native humans of the alternate dream world, after learning powers such as magic, can emerge as beings capable of destroying the world, but those are the native humans of the alternate dream world.

People cannot be generalized; the physical constitution of humans in the alternate dream world is different from that of humans in reality.

Although the differences are small, these small differences can lead to different results from the same knowledge.

Therefore, in reality there are great demons capable of sweeping through otherworldly dream worlds, or other visitors from otherworldly dream worlds, but they can only wield power in reality.

Go to the Otherworld? You can go, but if you go, you're just waiting to die.

The revolutionary army launched an offensive, and the imperial army was now seething with anger.

They had been held up here for a long time. The revolutionary army never engaged in direct confrontation, but instead used a war of attrition to wear them down, which had made them suffer for a period of time.

However, after Esdeath adapted to this protracted war, she began to organize effective counterattacks and annihilated a significant portion of the Revolutionary Army's forces.

However, despite the revolutionary army's all-out efforts, they were unable to break through the blockade.

The current proactive offensive perfectly meets the needs of the Imperial army, who are eager for a major battle.

With the great general leading them, they will be invincible.

As for weaponry, the Imperial Army also has an absolute advantage; their firearms are very powerful!

However, the war had only been going on for a short time when the empire's artillery was completely wiped out. The artillery, which should have played a great role on the battlefield, encountered even more powerful firearms.

Both were armed with firearms, but the Imperial Army was completely overwhelmed. They had to take turns firing to maintain overwhelming firepower, while the Revolutionary Army used weapons that were simply "rat-a-tat-tat"—

Furthermore, it has a longer range and greater weapon power.

The Revolutionary Army had never used such a weapon in previous wars, and now that they had displayed it, they had caught the Imperial Army completely off guard.

"Hahaha, the new firearms are amazing! No need to hide them anymore, let's use up all our bullets!!" The squad leader laughed loudly. They had been holding back for so long, they didn't need to conserve bullets anymore.

The mission is to use up all the ammunition and ensure that every bullet eliminates an enemy.

Their attack was blocked by an ice wall, and the squad leader showed panic.

He wouldn't be afraid of anyone else, but the person who came here was Esdeath.

"Is this Najenda's secret weapon? It's really powerful..." Esdeath said, looking at the artillery team's weaponry.

In a short time, she understood the weapon: it could fire continuously, it was more powerful and had a longer range, and it was very easy to reload.

One person can unleash the firepower of a squad. With such new firearms, it will be very difficult for the Imperial Army to fight against them.

Faced with such a weapon, any charge becomes meaningless for flesh and blood. In a head-on confrontation, without a weapon that can match it, no matter how many people are on the way, they will die.

But it didn't work on her!
These firearms were powerful, but they couldn't break through her ice—

Esdeath caught a glimpse of a figure rapidly approaching from the corner of her eye.

The speed was so great that she didn't have time to wipe out the entire squad. The ice spikes she had just created changed direction and flew towards that figure.

The solid yet swift ice spikes emitted a series of shattering sounds.

Her ice was smashed.

"Who are you?" Esdeath pondered the identity of the young man who had appeared on the battlefield, someone she had never seen before.

"My name is Bai Mu, and I'm a key player." Bai Mu's eyes turned from silver to gold; he had come to collect new fragments of spirit!
Although he doesn't mind the type of mental fragmentation, if there's someone who's both beautiful and capable in combat, he'll definitely choose that first, even if it's not good for his health...

Esdeath laughed: "Then don't disappoint me!!"

The ice that was lifted from the ground sliced ​​through the white curtain like sharp blades.

The ice blades that were slashing towards Esdeath were shattered head-on by the white curtain. Esdeath's ice was very strong, but the white curtain had been strengthened by the multiple strange mists.

It's already quite powerful in its normal state, and even stronger when its demonic energy is unleashed.

Esdeath at this time should not have changed her class to Void Mask.

Otherwise, if she unleashed that low-budget version of Void Mask's ultimate move, Bai Mu felt he would most likely be killed.

To avoid any further unforeseen circumstances, Bai Mu maintained his strongest state, intending to finish the battle quickly.

Even if he can't finish the battle quickly, this state allows him to move faster and use the Observer Teigu he carries to understand Esdeath's thoughts.

In case she breaks through in the heat of battle, evade her as quickly as possible.

As for bullying enemies who are not yet at the required level... he's not Vegeta, who has to wait until everyone reaches their complete form before going to deliver them to him.
