As the supreme god, I choose to watch movies in the multiverse.

At the age of 15, due to his constant training to become stronger since childhood, his physique was stronger than that of an average person. Even after being subjected to a hundred strokes of the cane, he remained conscious. However, when he returned home one day, he learned from his neighbors the devastating news that his father, heartbroken by his son's repeated thefts, had chosen to hang himself in order to help his son become a good person again.

After his father's death, Komaji was forced to wander alone to make a living. Recalling how his efforts to save his father had resulted in this outcome, Komaji was filled with rage, believing that the ugly world where the rich could do whatever they wanted while the poor could do nothing had killed his father. Subsequently, in an act of venting his anger, he successively defeated seven adults who had angered him.

However, after fighting with the adults, he encountered his future master, Keizo, and was injured and forcibly taken back to the Soryu Dojo that Keizo had opened.

Upon arriving at the Soryu Dojo, Komaji discovered that he was the only disciple there, and his master had to work to support the dojo. Later, his master asked him to help care for his sick daughter, Koyuki.

When Komaji saw the sick Renyuki, he was reminded of his father and decided to stay at the Soryu Dojo to take care of Renyuki. However, during this time, he was unaware that Renyuki was gradually falling in love with him.

While Komaji was taking care of Koyuki, the son of the owner of the kendo dojo next door, who was in love with Koyuki, secretly took the weak Koyuki away by force. However, he was so frightened by Koyuki's asthma attack that he abandoned her and ran away. If Komaji hadn't found Koyuki in time, she probably would have died long ago.

Upon learning of this, Keizo was furious and challenged his own Soryu Dojo to a match between the neighboring kendo dojo and Komaji. During the match, Komaji defeated nine people in succession and declared that Komaji was forbidden from having any further contact with Koyuki.

Therefore, the dojo master's son lost his mind in anger and swung his real sword at Komaji, but Komaji broke the sword in two with his best move. The dojo master was moved by the power of his move and reprimanded his son for his rudeness. After that, no one bothered the Suryu Dojo again.

When Komaji was 18, his master Keizo asked him if he would like to inherit the dojo and marry his daughter Koyuki. Komaji was almost stunned, but then he remembered his father's last wish and agreed to his master's request.

Afterwards, he went with Lianxue to see the fireworks that Lianxue had never seen when she was a child, and promised Lianxue that he would become stronger than anyone else so that he could protect Lianxue for the rest of his life.

On the eve of his wedding, Komaji returned to his hometown to pay respects at his father's grave and tell his father, who was in the afterlife, the good news that he was about to get married.

At this time, the owner of the neighboring kendo dojo had passed away. Upon hearing the news that Komaji and Koyuki were going to get married, the owner's son, incited by his apprentices, secretly poisoned the well at the Soryu dojo during Komaji's grave visit using despicable means. However, the poisoning was witnessed by the neighbor next door.

When Komaji returned to the dojo, his neighbors told him that his master and fiancée had been poisoned by people from a nearby kendo dojo. Completely devastated and enraged, he went to the dojo and killed 67 people with his bare hands, including the dojo owner's son. None of the dead were left with intact bodies, and the remaining servants were driven insane by fear. Because the events were so bizarre, rumors began to circulate that the dojo was haunted.

Having failed to protect those he cared about once again, Komaji completely lost his way. He then encountered Muzan Kibutsuji, who had come to investigate rumors of demons in a place devoid of them. Muzan became interested in Komaji's extraordinary strength and forcibly turned him into a demon.

Due to brain damage, Komaji lost almost all his memories, leaving only his obsession with becoming stronger. He then became the Upper Moon Three of the Twelve Demon Moons under Muzan's command and changed his name to Akaza.

Chapter 149 Joseph vs. Vamuu

Who would have thought that Upper Moon Three, who has taken countless lives, would have such a past?

With Akaza's background revealed, the audience outside the screen finally understood the cause and effect.

Similarly, although Akaza was not the first Upper Moon to reveal his true identity, the audience outside the screen was once again overwhelmed.

I originally thought that it would be enough for a shameful boss like Muzan Kibutsuji to have a tragic character under his command, but I never expected that even Akaza, who is a martial arts fanatic, has an unknown past.

Light screen image bullet comments——

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Akaza... no, I should say Komaji, he is indeed a real man, a real man full of tragic color."

In the world of passersby, Kasumigaoka Utaha put down her manuscript and looked at Komaji in the video with admiration.

For her, the author of romance novels, the relationship between Komaji and Koyuki undoubtedly deeply moved her.

Detective Conan: "Akaza has a lot of lives on his hands. Even if he did all of them after he lost his memory, he should go to hell to atone for his mistakes. But... Komaji, the man Akaza was in life, was a truly admirable man."

Kaguya Shinomiya: "What is more like a demon than a demon is humanity itself... He is not wrong, the wrong is Muzan Kibutsuji, and that era that ate people."

Bishop of Destiny: "The reason why Akaza keeps getting stronger is for his lover, Reiyuki. Even his Blood Demon Art is shaped like snowflakes and petals. Such intense emotions are dazzling and radiant."

Shinobu Kocho: "Muzan Kibutsuji... He is the root of all evil. Everything is his fault. If it weren't for him, Komaji wouldn't have become Akaza. If it weren't for him... my sister wouldn't have died at the hands of demons!"

.........

Having recalled everything, Komaji went to hell to atone for his sins, guided by Koyuki.

As the soul dissipated, the supporting body gradually disappeared, as if scorched by flames.

"...I see. Did your wife come to pick you up?"

Warriors don't need words to communicate; Vamuu put away his regretful expression and became indifferent once again.

He stretched out his hand, made a fist, and looked up at the sky, the place where Akaza's soul dissipated.

"Only the strong are worthy to be my friends, Akaza? You are one of the few warriors who have aroused my fighting spirit. I will forever remember your name in the corner of my memory."

With that, Vamu prepared to continue his search for the manipulator of the Infinite City. He had wasted too much time here and needed to speed things up.

However, at that moment, an unexpected event occurred. A golden light struck Wamuu's back with lightning speed, far exceeding Wamuu's reaction time.

"puff......!"

Almost without any suspense, the golden ripples struck Wamuu's unsuspecting back without any hindrance.

"Nice! It worked!"

A flippant voice came through, and Joseph's dashing figure appeared in the light screen's imagery.

Seeing that his sneak attack had worked, he snapped his fingers, and the Hermit's Purple on his wrist transmitted the ripples to Vamuu without reservation.

Joseph is not a warrior. Although he has an unwavering golden spirit, he would never engage in a gentlemanly duel with someone as dangerous as Wamuu, like his grandfather Jonathan did.

It wasn't that Joseph himself was insidious, but rather that there was no need for a fair fight against someone like Pillar Man, who had countless lives on his hands and was considered humanity's nemesis.

Treating enemies like a gentleman will only hasten one's own demise. Rather than such troublesome martial virtue, Joseph prefers to deal with the most dangerous enemies at the lowest cost, which is exactly what Sun Tzu's Art of War refers to as total victory!

"Thorn--!"

The ripples struck his spine head-on, and the area where Wamuu was hit quickly revealed reddish-yellow lava that looked like magma. If the blow had hit his head, he might have died on the spot.

"Ouch!" Wamuu winced in pain, freezing in place, perhaps not expecting to be ambushed like this.

After all, Ripple users like Wamuu are not uncommon. One characteristic of Ripple is that it is transmitted through objects or physical contact, and Wamuu will definitely detect those things in advance when they approach him.

However... Hermit Purple is something Wamuu cannot sense. As a form of spiritual power, a Stand not only has the ability to transmit Ripple 100%, but its concealment is also top-notch.

Ordinary people can't see it at all, and although the Pillar Man, who has strong mental power, can see it, he has no experience in dealing with it and therefore cannot avoid the Stand's sneak attack.

"Hey! Your name is Wamuu, right? I've heard of you. You and Esidisi are colleagues, aren't you? Both of you are Kaz's subordinates?"

"How about it? My move, Hermit's Purple: Ripple Dash, must be really tough for you right now."

"Just tell me where Kaz is now, and maybe I'll help you get out of this world sooner."

Speaking lines almost identical to those of the villains, Joseph was constantly testing Wamuu's limits.

Hermit Purple's accuracy wasn't as good as Star Platinum's; it didn't hit Vamuu's nape exactly as Joseph had intended, but Vamuu's injuries were now unclear.

This would allow Joseph to find out the exact location of Kars, the leader of the Three Pillars.

"..." Wamuu stroked his wound. The intensity of the Ripple was immense. This level of Ripple power would have been top-tier even among the Ripple clan two thousand years ago.

And that purple phantom that had been retrieved from his wrist—that was the thing that transmitted the ripples to his body.

Wamuu ignored Joseph's sneak attack. To him, even if he was injured because of the sneak attack, it was due to his own lack of strength, and he had no one else to blame.

"Humans are inherently fragile, so it's understandable that they would resort to such methods."

With a tear in his own wound, Vamuu actually ripped off a piece of his own flesh, along with the part that had been eroded by the ripples.

"Hiss... Doesn't it hurt?" Seeing Wamuu's reaction, Joseph couldn't help but gasp. This guy was a bit too ruthless. After all, it was flesh and blood of his own flesh.

Although the Pillar Men's constitution is different from that of humans, they are still living beings, and all living beings should be able to feel pain.

"It's nothing. Sometimes when you're attacked by Ripple Warriors, this is the only way to stop the injury."

To Joseph's surprise, Vamu calmly replied, his eyes filled with fighting spirit, and... and intense hatred.

Yes, hatred, because of Easidisi? Because Easidisi died at his hands, so Wamuu hates him? What a joke, it feels like he's become the villain.

Indeed, Joseph was now sitting on pins and needles. Wamuu's gaze even made him feel a sense of fear. This pure warrior's oppressive aura was much stronger than that of Easidisi.

"Your friends should be nearby; I can feel their presence on the wind."

As soon as Wamuu spoke, Joseph broke out in a cold sweat. To avoid being discovered by Wamuu, Jotaro and his group were at least seven or eight hundred meters away from here, and there were many buildings in between.

Are you kidding me? How did Vamuu find them from such a distance, especially with buildings blocking the view? And the reason given was the wind?

Where did the wind come from? Why didn't he feel it? Is there wind in the Infinite City?

"You don't seem to want them to come over, is it because they aren't Ripple Warriors?"

Wamuu's injuries are healing at a visible speed. He had devoured many evil spirits before, and the energy within his body is enough to allow his body to recover quickly.

"The first round is over, Ripple Warrior. You can be proud of yourself for being able to hurt me, Vamuu."

With a cold and murderous look in his eyes, Vamu spoke calmly, his body now showing no trace of injury.

Wamuu held both respect for the powerful warrior and hatred for Aishidisi as he looked at the Ripple warrior who had killed Aishidisi.

"Did it recover so quickly? Is it because it had already eaten before? It's a pity that Hermit's Purple didn't hit its head directly."

Joseph sighed, saying it was fate; if Hermit Purple's aim had been better, there wouldn't have been a second round.

“However,” Joseph changed the subject, pointing his index finger at Wamuu with an extremely confident smile, and said, “Wamu, your next words are: Ripple Warrior, I, Wamuu, will now avenge Lord Essidi!”

"Ripple Warrior, I, Wamuu, will now avenge Lord Essidi...?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wamuu was taken aback. Joseph's move always managed to easily disrupt his opponent's mentality.

And in that instant when Vamuu was stunned, Joseph moved... or more precisely, the Hermit's Purple on Joseph's wrist moved.

The combination of Ripple and Hermit Purple is an unstoppable move; so far, almost no opponent Joseph has been able to directly counter it.

"Heh heh! So what if I've recovered? The second round is still my turn!"

Hermit Purple attacked Vamuu with lightning speed; Joseph was truly despicable.

Although there are quite a few people in the light screen who like Joseph, this behavior has indeed caused a lot of discussion among viewers outside the light screen.

The scene returns to the present, and this time Hermit Purple is released in front of Wamuu, so Wamuu is not caught off guard as before.

Wamuu is a born warrior, the most powerful among the Pillar Men, and his fighting talent far exceeds imagination.

Ordinary people, even Kars, would only be able to avoid such a ripple attack and refrain from engaging it. But Wamuu was different; he chose the most risky method.

Instead of standing still and waiting for the ripples to hit him, Vamuu charged directly toward the thorns of the Hermit's Purple.

"What?!" Joseph exclaimed, his eyes filled with incomprehension and confusion. Had he lived long enough? The Pillar Men's resistance to Ripple was stronger than that of vampires, but it wasn't to the point that they could actively touch the power of the sun.

Before Joseph could say anything, Vamuu's next move completely shocked him. Vamuu... actually grasped the rippled surface of the Hermit's Purple with his hand.

Isn't Ripple a weakness of the Pillar Men and the Demons? For them, who are afraid of sunlight, hitting Ripple with their bare hands is tantamount to suicide.

Just as Joseph was about to watch Vamu collapse helplessly, an unexpected event occurred. Vamu's right hand gripped the Hermit's Purple tightly, and the ripples on it did not cause him any harm.

Pull hard!

The next moment, Joseph felt a tremendous force strike him. Even though he quickly withdrew the Hermit's Purple, his body was still uncontrollably flying towards where Vamuu was.

Ripple dash!

Seeing that he was about to be killed by Vamuu, Joseph immediately wrapped himself in Ripple to avoid the possibility of being instantly killed.
