Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

As Wood shattered the earth with a single kick, turning the entire Elior Forest into ruins, Pandora maintained her expressionless demeanor.

However, it is not hard to tell from her tone that Wood's strength has been recognized by her, and she no longer uses the arrogant tone of "I" that she used before.

Pandora is not a Bishop of Greed; she is the giver of power, not the recipient of it. Compared to the Bishop of Greed, her power is truly almost invincible.

As for why I said "almost", it's because her abilities are indeed unparalleled, but there are still some flaws.

Pandora can use words to distort the truth, but this requires her voice to be within a certain range, meaning that this ability has a certain activation range.

Of course, this only applies to other people; if Pandora only uses her powers on herself, then this problem does not exist.

Unless she encounters someone like the "True Goddess" who is her natural counter, she is basically invincible against anyone.

On the other side, the Witch of Envy and the Witch of Greed also started fighting. Unlike other witches of great sins who only hate the personality of the Witch of Envy and not Satella's personality, Echidna hates both the personalities of Satella and the Witch of Envy.

Echidna doesn't hate many people, only three or four in total: the two personalities of the Witch of Envy, Emilia, and Emilia's adoptive mother, Fortuna.

Now, with the two personalities of the Witch of Jealousy, plus Emilia as her vessel, three out of the four people she dislikes are here. Naturally, Echidna won't give the Witch of Greed a friendly look.

There was already animosity between them, and Echidna didn't want the Witch of Envy to break the seal and endanger the world again, so she naturally wouldn't give the Witch of Envy a friendly look.

In terms of pure strength, Echidna is one of the best among the Great Sin Witches, but she is clearly still somewhat inferior to the Witch of Envy.

The key point is that the Witch of Envy is not at her peak power, so she doesn't have much of an advantage against Echidna and is even suppressed at times.

"Overlord's Entanglement: Hundred Demon Sword Style - Kamaitachi!"

The violent winds tore through the atmosphere, not only cleaving the ground but also the entire Elior Forest in two.

Pandora, who had been as steady as a mountain, now showed a slight look of surprise on her usually expressionless face!

The reason is simple: her power to even deceive the world was just broken through by the other party!

Rewind a few minutes, because Pandora's power was too overwhelming, Wood, who had no other choice but to resort to any means necessary, used all the powers he possessed against Pandora in a desperate act.

However, when Wood used "Conqueror's Haki", he was surprised to find that even though Pandora had turned herself into "illusion", she was still affected.

Conqueror's Haki is the most special type of Haki. As the rarest type of Haki, it is possessed only by those who stand above kings. Currently discovered functions, in addition to mental impact, include the so-called "Haki Entanglement".

As the rarest form of Haki, Wood believed that the limit of developing "Conqueror's Haki" was only this, but unfortunately Oda only drew it to that point.

Although the exact principle is unclear, it is certain that "Conqueror's Haki" can affect Pandora. Therefore, Wood naturally used "Conqueror's Entanglement," the strongest application of Conqueror's Haki at present, to attack Pandora.

At first, Pandora didn't take Wood's attack seriously. However, when its power, which had turned into nothingness, collided with Wood's "Conqueror's Haki" and sparked a large amount of lightning, Pandora finally lost her composure.

Her body, which had been standing still, began to move for the first time. However, because she was not as fast as Wood, her simple white clothes were torn open by the ice blade in Wood's hand, revealing a large expanse of her skin.

"What kind of power is this? Why is my authority affected by it!"

Pandora couldn't understand what Haki was, but she could sense that it was a power similar to, yet different from, the power of a true goddess.

Through several clashes, Wood now roughly understands why his "Conqueror's Haki" can affect Pandora's powers.

Pandora's power is to diminish the object of her existence, even to the point of deceiving the world into a false existence.

However, "Conqueror's Haki" is a power that strengthens and highlights one's own existence, in order to reveal the so-called "aura of dominance" and enhance the perception and fear of those around one.

To put it simply, using "domineering aura" can enhance one's presence. After all, an outward display of domineering aura is enough to have a mental impact on others.

Although it differs from the powers of a true goddess, coincidentally, this power that strengthens one's own presence is also the power that can restrain Pandora's powers.

While Conqueror's Haki isn't as powerful as the "True Goddess's" abilities, capable of completely overpowering Pandora, he does now possess the power to harm her.

The white-haired loli with no personality traits, lacking speed, strength, and magic power compared to Wood, quickly developed numerous large and small scars on her porcelain-like skin.

"What good does it do you to stop me so hard?"

I'm simply trying to make this world more real. Can what you're pursuing compare to the reality of this world?

Just like sloth and non-sloth, Pandora, as the "witch of disguise," pursues the very opposite of reality.

The Witch of Pretense, Pandora, detests hypocrisy and lies, and hopes that everyone in the world will express their emotions without reservation—this is her purpose. (This is purely the author's fabrication, as the setting of Re:Zero is so vast that the author quickly ran into a cliffhanger without even explaining it.)

When the Witch of Envy devours someone, she can see the thoughts of other people, meaning their consciousnesses merge into one.

Therefore, Pandora wanted the Witch of Jealousy to be resurrected and to devour the entire world, so that the world would become a unified whole, free from deception and illusion, and everyone could clearly see each other's thoughts.

The crazy little girl, with her crazy ideas, and her extreme behavior is not much different from the red-eyed guy in the next movie who thinks about dancing with people all day long.

From their own perspective, such people cannot be considered obvious villains, but in order to achieve their goals, they have indeed done a lot of heinous things.

"I have no interest in the reality of the world, but I am well aware that your willful actions will cause trouble for many people in this world."

Lies and hypocrisy may not be good qualities, but it is precisely because of these things that humanity is complete.

A world without lies? Believe it or not, if such a world truly existed, it would only be destroyed even faster.

As a "witch of pretense," your actions are undoubtedly more foolish, because you are denying yourself!

It wasn't that Wood wanted to lecture a thousand-year-old loli on life lessons, but rather that without verbal persuasion, he really couldn't win her over in a short time, and might even have a disastrous outcome.

That's right, Conqueror's Haki can indeed restrain Pandora's power, but "Conqueror's Haki" consumes a lot of energy, and "Heart of God" also has huge limitations; burning life force also has a time limit.

Judging from the current rate of damage he's inflicting on Pandora, he'll probably be worn down and killed before he can finish her off!

Wood had been hoping that Echidna could deal with the Witch of Greed as soon as possible and come to his side to help.

Unexpectedly, the Witch of Greed was so unreliable. Not only did she fail to suppress the Witch of Envy, whose power was incomplete, she also allowed her to break the seal on the Three Heroes of the Elf Forest!

To be precise, it was Parker who broke the seal... no, it should be said that Parker was forced to do so.

Don't forget, the body the Witch of Envy is currently using belongs to Emilia.

Emilia and Puck have a contract, so when the Witch of Envy was fighting Echidna, she used the contract to summon Puck, who was far away in the Sanctuary, and then used the contract to forcibly order Puck to break the seal.

Once the seal of the three heroes was broken, the power that the Witch of Jealousy had been sealed with instantly engulfed the entire Elf Forest like a tidal wave.

The berserk witch factor instantly dyed half the sky blackish-purple. At this moment, no matter where in the world, including the Dragon Kingdom of Lugnik, the Holy Land, the city-state of Kararagi, and the Water City, one could see a black-robed figure shrouding the sky.

Lugnica's Dragon Stone, the descendant of the Great Sage of the Sage's Tower, and the current Sword Saint Reinhard also looked up at the sky with a sense of unease.

As those most deeply connected to the "Three Heroes," they clearly sensed that the Witch of Envy, who had once brought immense calamity to the world, had been resurrected!

The Witch of Envy used to be able to devour half the world, and now that she's been resurrected, she can naturally achieve the same feat of devouring the other half as well.

Having witnessed the resurrection of the Witch of Envy and having achieved her goal, Pandora had no intention of continuing to entangle with Wood. She simply faded away and disappeared from the spot.

As Wood watched Pandora slowly disappear like an ink painting, he obviously didn't have the energy to get entangled with her any longer, since the world was about to end!

Faced with the fully resurrected Witch of Envy, Echidna, the Witch of Greed was no match for him. In fact, she had asked him for help several times through a contract since the beginning.

When Wood arrived, he saw a series of dark shadows converging into an arm that wrapped around Echidna's body, attempting to pull her into a vortex.

"Hyakki Mitsurugi-ryu - Wind Attribute One-Sword Style - Kamaitachi!"

A fierce gust of wind howled out, and in the air it seemed to conjure up a white weasel with sharp claws and teeth, its body spinning at high speed.

The crescent-shaped slash, hundreds of meters long, not only severed the shadowy figure's arm but also left a massive canyon several kilometers long on the ground.

"What are you up to? Didn't you say before that the Witch of Jealousy's power was incomplete and that you were more than capable of dealing with her?"

So this is what you mean by "more than enough"—making a mess of things like this? If I had arrived any later, you would have been swallowed up like you were over four hundred years ago, okay?

Looking at Echidna, who had broken free from the shadow's control and appeared beside Wood, Wood said this with an annoyed expression.

Before coming here from the Sanctuary, the two had already assigned their opponents, since even if Wood was very confident, he was not sure he could face two big bosses at the same time.

Initially, Wood stated that he would deal with the Witch of Envy, while Pandora would be left to Echidna.

However, our wisest Witch of Greed confidently asserted that she had an old grudge against the Witch of Envy, and that the not-fully-resurrected Witch of Envy was no match for her...

Chapter 385 The Possibility of Defeating the Witch of Envy

"I never expected that she would suddenly summon the artificial spirit that I created back then."

Moreover, I've only recently been resurrected and haven't fully adapted to this vessel yet.

Seeing the already collapsed situation, Echidna also looked embarrassed. After all, now that the Witch of Envy has been resurrected, she has to take the blame for most of the situation.

"What should we do now? Does the Witch of Greed have any fatal weaknesses?"

"I can't maintain this state for long. If we don't stop her soon, we'll just be lying here waiting to die."

Because of the price of the 'Heart of God,' Wood's life energy is rapidly draining away, and it's only a matter of time before he dies. The important thing is whether he can do something before he dies.

Wood wanted to complain about everything. The power of the "Heart of God" was indeed off the charts, and it had been his trump card for several worlds.

While this ability is powerful, its side effects are incredibly frustrating, making each battle a life-threatening ordeal.

If he were a long-lived race like an elf or a dragon, that would be one thing; with the corresponding configuration, he could use this ability at will.

The key point is that every time he simulates a life, it's a normal human life.

A normal person's lifespan of seventy or eighty years is simply not enough to withstand a life-threatening event like the "Heart of God."

"If the Witch of Envy had any weaknesses, we wouldn't have been completely devoured more than four hundred years ago, and the world wouldn't have been half-devoured."

She is now practically immortal and cannot be killed in any way. The only way to kill her is to seal her away again, just like the "Three Heroes" did back then.

And the sooner the better, because her strength will continuously increase with time!

Theoretically speaking, the Witch of Envy, who has already devoured half the world and six Great Sin Witches, is already a true immortal being. Even if the overpowered swordsman Reinhard were to come now, he could at most only go toe-to-toe with the Witch of Envy.

Considering that one of them is almost impossible to kill, and the other has the incredible "protection of the phoenix", the ultimate possibility is that the two of them can fight for an eternity.

"You sinful witches are really outrageous. I thought I could stay alive and complete the game this time, but I didn't expect that I would have to die to end the simulation."
