Starting with One Piece, a Multiverse Simulation

Cliff and his companions were initially quite unfamiliar with the term "human god," and even though Paul had told Rudy that the other party was dangerous and powerful, they had no concept of it.

But after hearing Rudy's explanation, Cliff, Alina, and Lizzie all looked completely stunned.

They had never heard of the title "God of Man," but they had heard of the Dragon God Orsteed among the Seven Great Powers and the legends associated with him.

This powerful dragon god actually chased the "human god" for more than two hundred cycles without succeeding even once. Moreover, the "human god" was the culprit who destroyed the four realms of beast, sea, sky, and demon!

Just hearing about the terrifying achievements of the "God of Man," Cliff and Alina Liz could now get a sense of just how dangerous he was, even if they didn't know him personally.

"Since there are traces of 'human gods' in the church, it is not advisable for us to go and contact them too early."

Faced with that mysterious and cunning god, we need more meticulous plans and preparations.

"Mother, are you able to contact the Dragon God, Orsteed, now?"

Rudy had dealt with gods and men the most, so he knew best how dangerous and cunning they were, and therefore dared not be careless at all.

To be honest, their current team lineup is one of the strongest teams on the entire continent.

Even with this lineup, Rudy didn't think they could do anything to "God of Men," so he looked at his mother Senis and asked if they could send over another powerful henchman.

The Dragon God Orsteed and the "Human God" are absolute mortal enemies. With such a deep-seated hatred, it's impossible for him to remain indifferent after hearing about the Human God's whereabouts.

"I contacted him as soon as I heard the name of the god, but he is currently on another continent. Even if he gets here as fast as he can, it will take him at least a day."

Chapter 497 Finally reunited with family!

Upon hearing Senis's answer, Cliff and Alina Lizzie were surprised again, because they never expected that Rudy's family would have such a wild approach, managing to easily manipulate the Dragon God among the Seven Great Powers.

This is a legendary figure. Compared to someone like him, the so-called Milis Order and the Pope are nothing.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of the Dragon God Orsteed, the entire Holy Kingdom of Milis was nothing more than a dilapidated little country.

While Cliff's status as the pope's grandson might seem incredibly prestigious to ordinary people, in the eyes of the Dragon God, he probably wouldn't even deserve a second glance.

"Because of some things that happened before, our family has some connection with the Dragon God Austerd."

My family members also have the Dragon God's blessing, but my mother and sister both hate the Dragon God.

Hearing Rudy's explanation, Cliff and the others were even more speechless.

This is the Dragon God, one of the strongest beings in the world. People would be groveling before him, but Rudy's family not only received his blessing, they actually hate him?

What's even more absurd is that, despite their mutual loathing, the Dragon God Austerd is still at the other's beck and call.

"In short, before the Dragon God Orsteed arrives, we should refrain from contacting the church and the gods, lest we alert them."

Let's head to Latorrea's house now. To be honest, I'm just as curious about that so-called "messenger of God."

The Church of Milis has already been devoured by both gods and men, yet the Latorea family remains unconquered. I wonder if that 'messenger of God' might be…

"Could the so-called 'messenger of God' be Wood?"

Before Rudy could voice his conjecture, Senis cut him off and blurted it out.

With his dazzling golden hair, similar age to Rudy, and immense strength, he was almost a perfect match for the Wood that Senis and the others remembered, except for the weapon he used.

Moreover, the information they had gathered from the Adventurers' Guild indicated that Wood was also looking for them.

Given that their whereabouts are unknown, the possibility that Wood came to the Holy Kingdom of Milis to find the Latoria family, or returned to the territory of Fetoia where they were born, is quite high.

"Let's go to Latorrea's house right away. If it's Wood, we'll have the answer once we see him, right?"

At this moment, Senis was extremely excited and agitated. No one could understand Senis's feelings better than a mother who had missed her child for two years.

Because Wood was too sensible from a young age and always sacrificed for his family, Senis always felt that she owed Wood too much.

After Wood's death, these pent-up emotions erupted in an instant, even causing Senis to harbor some hatred towards her other child, Rudy.

Now that the child she loved so much and owed so much to has come back to life, no one understands the feeling of something lost and then regained better than Senis.

After learning that Wood might be resurrected, Senis vowed more than once in her heart that anyone who would harm her child again would be her absolute enemy, and no matter who that person was, she would never let them go!

Senis was the second daughter of Latorrea, so naturally she knew the way around her own mansion.

Their team's combat strength was excellent, so they easily defeated almost every monster they encountered along the way, and their team continued to grow stronger thanks to the people they met along the way.

When the group arrived at Latorrea's house, the small team, which originally consisted of only about ten people, had grown to several dozen.

Today, the Latorrea family's house is surrounded by thick earthen walls, and the only exit is guarded by Latorrea's guards.

Since the Latorea family settled in the Holy Kingdom of Milis, they have never been as powerful as they are now. Since the beast tide came, their family has become the most powerful and safest place in the entire capital.

Needless to say, the Milis Order has now been almost completely devoured by the so-called rebels, and those "rebels" themselves may not be able to withstand the surging beast tide for long.

Now everyone in the capital knows that only the Latorea family has the ability to resist the beast tide, which has made the Latorea family's prestige unparalleled in the entire Holy Kingdom of Milis.

Needless to say, even the nobles of the capital who used to look down on others now have no choice but to humbly beg for mercy in order to survive.

As their reputation and fame grew, even the guards and servants of the Latorea family naturally became arrogant.

Previously, nobles from other families and figures like the Temple Knights would almost never even glance at these top-notch guards.

But times have changed. With the help of young master Wood, those people who were once out of their league now have to bow and scrape before them.

"Young Master Wood is really impressive. I really hope he can stay in our Latoria family forever. That way, we might all be just as powerful in the future."

"It's not impossible. I heard some rumors that since Lady Therese has no interest in the position of head of the family, Lady Claire seems to really want to hand over the Latorea family to young master Wood."

"No way, but isn't young master Wood a grandson? And his surname is Greirat."

"You don't understand, do you? Young Master Wood was originally the second son in the Grerat family and had no right to inherit the Grerat family. So Lady Claire's idea is to have Young Master Wood adopted into our Latorrea family."

Furthermore, the Latorrea family has no male heirs. Even if Lady Therese inherits the family fortune, the position of family head will ultimately be inherited by her child.

While the guards of the Latorrea family were chatting, the man on lookout suddenly gave a signal that a large group of people of unknown origin were heading their way.

Just as the guards realized the other party's origins were unknown and were about to go to the mansion to report to Claire or Wood, the appearance of the blond boy in the lead stunned them.

"Young Master Wood, when did you leave? Why do we have no recollection of it?"

And these people behind you, did you rescue them from outside?

If we were to ask who in the entire Latorrea family currently enjoys the highest prestige and popularity, everyone in the Latorrea family could confidently say that it is neither Lady Claire, the head of the family, nor Lady Therese, who once served as the captain of the Temple Knights, but rather Young Master Wood, who has only recently returned home!

When the beast tide breached the city, the Latorea family mansion was no exception; it too became one of the monsters' targets.

Although Lady Claire, the head of the family at the time, tried her best, she was ultimately in dire straits due to the depletion of her magic power.

And it was at that final critical moment that young Master Wood, whom they hadn't seen for two years, descended like a god and unleashed a power far beyond their comprehension, instantly annihilating all the magical beasts besieging the mansion.

Furthermore, they unleashed powerful magic to heavily protect the current Latoria mansion, even transforming it into a complete fortress.

It is also because of young master Wood that the talents of the Latorrea family not only survived, but the family's reputation and fame now far surpass any previous period.

It can be said that everyone in the Latorrea family deeply admires and worships Wood, who is both incredibly powerful and their savior.

So when they saw "Wood's" face, several guards from the Latorrea family took the initiative to go up and talk to him.

"No, he's not Master Wood! I noticed before that Master Wood's beauty mark is under his right eye, not under his left eye."

Furthermore, although Master Wood possesses powerful magic, have you ever seen him use a magic wand?

This guy's a fake! And he's impersonating Young Master Wood; he definitely has ulterior motives!

The guards from the Latorrea family, who had initially greeted him warmly, were about to say hello to "Young Master Wood" when one of them noticed that although the man looked exactly like their Young Master Wood, there were some differences in his features. So he immediately alerted his companions.

Upon hearing this guard's reminder, the other guards immediately realized that the "Young Master Wood" in front of them did indeed have a different demeanor than they had seen before, so they also drew their weapons with wary expressions.

In contrast to the Latorrea family guards who looked wary and on high alert, Rudy and his companions, who were surrounded, showed a look of surprise and delight upon hearing the guards' words.

Senis, especially, who was behind Rudy, rushed forward anxiously, grabbed one of the guards by the shoulder, shook him, and asked, "You just mentioned Young Master Wood, right?"

It's Wood, not Rudy, right?! Is he at the Latorrea house too?! Answer my question quickly!

Upon seeing this woman who had run out of the opposing group like a madwoman, the guard initially wanted to resist, but when he saw her face clearly, he froze. He then tentatively asked, "Are you Lady Senis...?"

The guard being dragged along by Senis was a veteran of the Latoria family, and he also remembered Senis's appearance when she brought Wood and the others back to the Holy Kingdom of Milis two years ago.

So when he saw everyone, although he didn't recognize Rudy and Paul, he did recognize Senis, the second young lady of the Latorrea family.

Yes, I'm Senis. Answer my question! Has Wood been here? How is he now?

“Lady Senis, Young Master Wood arrived at the Latorrea residence two days ago. Wasn’t it you who knew about the situation here and sent him over?”

Although the guard found Senis's agitated state rather strange, he still answered the question honestly.

After hearing the guard's confirmation, Senis ignored everyone else present and entered the Latorrea family mansion with practiced ease.

The Latorrea family now has many outsiders, all of whom are other nobles and commoners from the capital who have come here seeking refuge.

Of course, apart from those who are close to the Latorrea family and their close relatives, no one else is allowed to enter the inner courtyard. This is the bottom line for the host family.

When they saw Senis rushing in and desperately trying to get to the backyard, many people initially wanted to stop her.

However, some nobles recognized this woman, who was once known as the "benchmark of a young lady from a wealthy family," and stopped them, saying that she was the second daughter of the Latoria family, the mother of that person.

Although she had been away for two years, Senis still had a deep impression of the mansion where she had grown up.

She quickly passed through the many gates and arrived at the back garden of the Latorrea family, where she saw the figure she had been longing for for the past two years.

Originally, Wood was in the backyard giving sword training to his aunt Therese.

Therese's swordsmanship was actually close to the level of a "sword saint," but she was unable to break through. So, she eventually turned to her exceptionally talented nephew, hoping to learn some quick techniques to achieve a breakthrough.

As a great swordsman who has accumulated experience in swordsmanship from multiple worlds, it was naturally easy for Wood to explain things to Therese.
