In this crossover anime, many ruthless and powerful figures reside in my territory.

Lister drew his Zanpakuto from his waist and placed four fingers of his left hand on the blade.

The next moment, golden spiritual pressure erupted from his body.

"Establish order, monarchy!"

Chapter 29: The Sword of Kingship

Under Buck's gaze, the slightly curved single-edged sword suddenly changed shape.

The sword blade transformed into a straight double-edged sword, adorned with intricate golden patterns that seemed to condense the landscape into the design.

These golden patterns, as if they were flowing, converged below the sword guard to form the character "王" (king).

The hilt is dark gold, adorned with five-colored jewels, while the sword handle is black, inlaid with gold patterns.

What a magnificent and beautiful sword!

That must be something only emperors could possess.

When the tip of the "Royal Sword" was pointed at Buck, he suddenly felt a sense of dread.

It was as if a noble emperor had decreed his death sentence.

"No! Impossible!"

What do you mean, impossible?

Lister took a step forward, the tip of his sword pointing directly at Buck's throat.

Buck frantically parried the sword, his entire body's energy surging.

Bloody Blade!

His halberd was covered with a layer of flowing bright red patterns, which greatly reduced the sound of the air being cut by the halberd when he swung it.

This is a blood-based enchantment skill that can greatly enhance the power of weapons.

"Drink!"

Buck's attack, fueled by fear, slammed into Lister's blade.

When he heard Liszt's muffled groan, he was immediately overjoyed.

"Hahaha! As expected, this is all you've got!"

"So what if your weapon can transform? You freak, you don't even cultivate your blood energy, how could you possibly defeat me?!"

Lister was struggling to keep up, seemingly barely managing to cope with Buck's attack.

"Die! Die!"

"I've been fed up with you for a long time. You actually gave up the right to inherit a dukedom that other people can only dream of in their entire lives."

"You're a freak! A stupid oddball!"

Buck raised his halberd and slammed it down again. This time, Lister almost couldn't block it. The halberd slid down from the side and nearly hit him.

Oops!

Chaplin frantically grabbed his two-handed sword.

We must protect the Duke's brother!

"late!"

"Let me end your tragic life!"

The halberd spun, and a venomous snake with bared fangs lunged at Lister's head.

"call out!"

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out, and Buck stared blankly at "Lister," whose figure had faded after being hit in the head.

"Are you happy? I was just kidding."

!!!

Buck's bloodshot eyes turned to one side, and there was another Lister standing next to him!

"Go ahead and don't worry, I won't give you any chance to surprise me."

A hand gently patted his shoulder.

The "Lister" who should have been pierced through the head turned into a semi-transparent air soldier and swung a transparent blade.

As Buck's neck stiffened and turned back, a barely perceptible line of blood appeared in his throat.

The halberd fell to the ground.

"What...what was that just now?"

"【The King's Army】".

"Even the wind can become my soldiers."

"puff!!!"

Blood gushed from his neck.

Lister paid no attention to the blood; an air barrier kept all the filth out, and his white-sleeved nobleman's robe remained completely untouched by dust.

"boom!"

The decapitated body fell to the ground.

"Chaplin, grip your weapons! This is war! Do I really need to remind you of that?"

Lister's shouts startled Chaplin and his men, who then hurriedly removed the leather straps from the blades.

Buck's side had just woken up and hurriedly prepared for battle.

Chris, lying on the ground clutching his stomach, stared at the back of that figure that had stunned everyone.

Like a god.

At that moment, Lena and Elsa, dressed in leather armor, appeared beside Chaplin.

"Lord Lister wants you to return to the south gate of the inner city as soon as possible. Lady Melf is there fighting a decisive battle with Duke Dick's men."

Chaplin instinctively asked, "Lister... what about the master?"

Lena stared directly at him, her eyes filled with rejection.

"Protecting adults is our responsibility."

"Besides, these people wouldn't even be able to touch an adult!"

Lister looked at the hundred noble guards and planted the [Royal Power] in his hand into the ground.

The Order of the King!

"I command that no one may leave this place until a decisive battle is won."

The golden patterns quickly spread outwards, forming a circle that surrounded all of Duke Dick's men.

The people inside couldn't comprehend the situation at all; they just huddled together in a panic, pointing their weapons outwards.

At this moment, Elsa, who had come to Liszt's side, asked.

"Master, Chaplin and the others have returned, but they saw your Zanpakuto unleash. What should we do?"

"It's alright. I consulted Mr. Madara about how to use illusions to influence memories. I've already set up an illusion that blurs memories in their brains. It will take effect soon, and they won't be able to remember the specific process."

Chris panicked upon hearing this.

He struggled to his feet and knelt down on one knee.

"Lord Lister! I..."

"Chris! I've never been the person you imagine me to be."

Lister interrupted the other person directly.

Let me give you a piece of advice.

“Admiration is the feeling farthest from understanding.”

"What you see is never the real me."

The light in your eyes has shrouded all my darkness.

Someone like you is not someone I can move forward with.

What I need are like-minded people who can fully understand me, comprehend my thoughts, and walk alongside me.

!!!

The light in Chris's eyes was moving forward.

He got up to chase after him, but didn't know what reason to use to stay by that person's side.

My lord, what should I do to truly follow you...?

Unbeknownst to those present, at that moment, Liszt's brooch suddenly lit up.

"Alright, let's continue testing my Zanpakuto's abilities."

Lister, Lena, and Elsa walked into the circle created by the Order of the King.

When Lister raised the royal sword, the guards inside also pointed their weapons at them.

"No! Don't be afraid! There are so many of us, and they only have three!"

"Yes! We'll attack together!"

Seeing the group of people cowering and preparing to rush forward, Lister smiled.

Gate of Babylon!

Countless ripples appeared in the air behind him, and ordinary iron spears emerged from the spatial ripples.

Instantly, all the spears shot out like arrows.

"Clang clang clang!"

The guards fought desperately to stop them, and then they discovered...
