From the Wandenreich's escape to One Piece

Chapter 138 Im appears, unleashing Joy Boy's domineering aura!

The moment the Five Elders teleported in, black lightning pierced through the castle, shooting towards the celestial realm above and the underworld below!

The giants of Elbaf couldn't help but put down their work and look towards the direction of the castle.

boom!

A tremendous roar came from that direction, as if the entire castle had been blown up. Even from a great distance, one could feel the immense power emanating from that direction!

"What the heck?!"

The giant stared wide-eyed in shock at the direction of the castle.

"Your Majesty the King!"

"Has something happened?!"

"That can't be! Didn't His Majesty say we'd be joining the World Government soon?"

puff!

The giant, who was even closer, suddenly rolled his eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fainted!

The giant's guards rushed out of the castle, shouting, "It's terrible! His Majesty the King has been taken hostage!"

'

""

In the underworld, even Loki, who was still haunted by the death of Rocks, felt this powerful aura. Despite having his eyes covered, he showed obvious shock.

"Your Highness! Something terrible has happened!"

Giant guards stumbled over, panicking, and cried, "His Majesty the King has been captured by the World Government! Please come with us!"

"What?!" Loki was furious upon hearing this!

He already harbored resentment towards the World Government because of Rocks's death, but since his father Haraldde cooperated with the World Government, there was little he could do. Now, hearing this, however, fueled both old and new grudges, and he roared angrily, "Who's trying to escape?! I'm going to wipe out those bastards from the World Government!"

Loki was still young at this time, but because he inherited the blood of the ancient giants, he already had the ability to subdue the monsters of the underworld from birth, and now that he has grown up, he is even more terrifying.

Although he is only twenty-nine years old this year, which is only nine years old in human terms, the elite guards of the Giant Kingdom could not stop him and he broke through their defenses!

"Your Highness!"

After being pushed down by Loki, the guards quickly got up to stop him, but they were no match for him. They could only watch helplessly as Loki headed towards Auersto Castle.

boom!

Inside the castle, Beltz faced Harald and the three Elders alone, while the strongest Saint Vochuli and Saint Pitt, transformed from Litoto, confronted Shiki.

The two were under immense pressure. Although Beltz was facing a larger number of opponents, including a strong one like Harald, his pressure was not that great.

Harald, under Im's control, didn't unleash much power. Perhaps he became much stronger after obtaining Im's power, but because his own consciousness was struggling to resist, he couldn't exert most of his power.

But Shiki wasn't having a good time.

Beltz had told Litoto before that there was no need to hold back in this battle; they should go all out. He said he would have a way to resolve the matter when the crucial moment came.

So, aside from not using up her Holy Body, Ritto basically used all her skills against Shiki. She alone was enough to keep Shiki busy. Now, with the addition of the Holy Worchuri, who was even harder than a lump of iron, Shiki was suddenly overwhelmed!

Especially after absorbing Saint Pittor, Litoto also gained the ability to communicate with the other Five Elders through telepathy, which made her cooperation with Saint Vochuli extremely good.

In the world of One Piece, two people working together can unleash tremendous fighting power.

Roger and Garp teamed up to defeat the demonized Rocks, and Law and Kid teamed up to defeat Big Mom, demonstrating that teaming up can defeat enemies stronger than oneself.

The reason why Beltz was able to easily defeat the Five Elders and the Knights of God was threefold: first, his strength was indeed formidable; second, he achieved a kill on first encounter, as the Five Elders did not expect Beltz to unleash such power; and third, the battle was extremely short, as Beltz would have inevitably succumbed if it had dragged on any longer.

Not to mention that Litoto's strength is no weaker than Shiki's, and in this fierce battle, Shiki's defeat seems to be a foregone conclusion.

However, Beltz found it difficult to break through Harald's immortality. He was able to kill the Knights of God, but he couldn't kill Harald.

If Shiki is defeated, then everyone will be besieging Beltz!

Even so, Beltz still didn't use the Overlord's Knot, because he was still waiting!

The Five Elders have already arrived, so who else can he wait for?

That's right, we're waiting for Im!

He knew that Im could possess the Five Elders remotely, so if they couldn't defeat Elbaf for a long time, would Im take action himself?

Last time in the Holy Land, Im didn't make a move, but this time in Elbaf—

He is very likely to show up!

"Father!"

Just as Beltz was still locked in a fierce battle with Harald, a voice from afar caused the latter to slow his sword strikes.

Loki burst in, hammer in hand, and upon seeing Harald exchanging blows with Beltz, exclaimed, "Father, what are you doing?! Who are they?!"

Loki tensed up at the sight of the three monsters formed from the Five Elders beside Harald.

"Loki—you've come too."

Harald was knocked back by Beltz's blade, staggering several steps before falling to the ground. But he acted as if nothing had happened, twisting his neck and saying, "I feel great now, like I can do anything!"

Beltz felt a pang of regret upon seeing Loki.

Loki should have been the one to kill Harald. That kid is bound to become incredibly powerful in the future. If Harald could grow to the same level as Loki, just how strong would Elbaf's fighting power be?

I can't even imagine!

"You must be Loki! Don't believe Harald's words, he's now under the control of the World Government."

"Hahaha!" Harald suddenly burst into laughter. "Control? No! I've never felt so exhilarated!"

"Beltz—I'll let you go for now, but I'll settle the score with you after I eat that legendary Devil Fruit!"

After saying that, Harald stood up and was about to abandon Beltz and head to another room to eat the Devil Fruit passed down from Elbaf!

i

Beltz's pupils dilated, and he immediately tried to catch up.

He can't let Harald's strength increase any further!

"It's not that easy!"

Itsumade spewed out a mouthful of raging fire, and the scorching flames blasted towards Beltz. Although the latter cleaved him in two with a single slash, the three monsters, Ushioni, Itsumade, and Magu, blocked Beltz's advance!

At this moment, Beltz had not yet used up his Holy Body, so he could not overwhelm the Five Elders as he had done in the Holy Land! Moreover, with his previous experience, the Five Elders no longer underestimated Beltz, and each of them used their full strength from the start!

"what!"

Loki seemed to be trying to stop Harald from eating the Devil Fruit, but Harald kicked him away. Loki was now completely powerless to stop Harald.

Well, looks like we'll have to move it up! I just don't know if Im will even come!

Seeing this, Beltz could only sigh, and the next moment he unleashed the full power of the Holy Script!

This was an attack that utilized the combined power of a psychologist and Conqueror's Haki to its fullest extent, instantly striking Harald's soul!

The thoughts that were eroding and controlling Harald in the deep sea imprint were immediately suppressed by Beltz's consciousness!

He had been giving Harald psychological therapy all along, all for this moment to erupt!

At that moment, Harald regained consciousness!

Harald, who was about to seize the Devil Fruit, suddenly came to his senses and stopped, looking at his hands.

"this----"

"You don't have much time," Beltz snapped immediately. "You can only be conscious for five minutes at most, and after that, you'll still be under Im's control!"

"Five minutes? That's enough!"

Harald shouted, "I'll take care of them for you! You kill me at the last minute!"

After Harald finished speaking, he immediately turned around and slashed at Maz-sei, who had transformed into Itsumade!

!

Mazsaint was caught off guard and Harald suddenly turned against him, and was struck by Harald's blade!

However, Harald's current state is not much different from before. The only difference is that before he was in a corrupted state, and his original consciousness was fighting for control. Now he is in a conscious state, and his corrupted consciousness is fighting for control.

This prevented Harald from using his full strength.

Therefore, this attack only carried a small amount of Conqueror's Haki. Although it injured Maz Saint, the latter recovered quickly.

"Loki!"

As Harald swung his sword, he said, "Leave this place! You are the future hope of Elbaf! Once you've grown up, go and eat that inherited Devil Fruit!"

"Father!" Loki exclaimed upon seeing Harald return to normal, "Has it truly reached the point of no return?!"

"That's right! After this, you will expose all the stupid things I've done! Let everyone know how incredibly foolish I am! I am the most foolish king in the history of Elbaf!"

Harald fought the Five Elders while weeping bitterly, almost shouting, "My whole life! It's all over in this moment!"

"You bastard! You scoundrel!"

Satan was cut into three pieces by Beltz's three consecutive strikes. The attack, imbued with Conqueror's Haki, caused him pain. But Beltz didn't stop there; he continued to attack!

Maz and Nasujiro tried to stop Beltz, but Harald blocked them, and the three of them became anxious.

Time was of the essence for them, because if things continued like this, the people of the Giant Kingdom would all know what was happening here.

They must stop this from spreading further, otherwise even if they control Harald, they will have difficulty controlling Elbaf!

"I'm going to stop them from spreading further!"

The fastest of them all, Izanbaron V. Nassuro, immediately broke free from Harald and Beltz and sped off into the distance.

But while he was fast, Beltz was not slow either!

He instantly stood in front of Ma Gu and slashed at him with his sword!

Seeing this, Nasujuro could only reluctantly swing his sword.

The first generation Kitetsu exuded a powerful aura of dominance, and it was even entangled with Conqueror's Haki!

puff!

A powerful black lightning bolt erupted in an instant. Among the Five Elders, Nasujuro's strength was among the top. Although he was knocked away by Belz with this strike, Belz also took a step back!

"Why haven't we killed them yet?!"

At that moment, Satan Saint heard Im's voice in his mind, and Satan Saint immediately responded with his mind: "Harald has regained consciousness for some reason and is turning against us. If this continues, it may attract all of Elbaf's forces."

"That won't do!"

Im said, "I will not allow such a thing to happen!"

puff!

Just as Beltz and Harald were about to attack the two Five Elders in front of them, the powerful aura that Beltz had been hoping for finally erupted from Satan!

This domineering aura burst forth from the castle in an instant, piercing towards a more distant place in Elbaf!

This powerful aura was even more terrifying than the previous clashes of Conqueror's Haki from everyone!

This stunned Shiki, who was fighting with all his might in the distance!

"What...what is this?"

Shiki looked toward the core of the castle in shock, and even Litoto looked over.

This was also the first time she had ever witnessed Im's power!

That's really terrifying!

"This—this is Im's domineering aura!" Harald, sensing this aura, was utterly shocked and exclaimed, "You—how did you get here?!"

At this moment, a mass of darkness seemed to appear above Satan's head, writhing as if a person were riding on Satan's head.

"This farce is coming to an end."

Im bypassed Harald and looked at Beltz: "No matter who you are, you will die here today."

However, Beltz smiled at that moment.

? !

Not only did the Five Elders and Harald not understand why Beltz could still laugh at this moment, even Im didn't understand.

How can you still laugh when you can clearly see yourself?

"I've been waiting for you all this time, Im!" Beltz said in a deep voice, "How about feeling that familiar, undiminished aura of dominance from this close distance?!"

He extracted the domineering-colored knot from the shadow.

"Bye now!"

He had no intention of fighting Im, after all, what if the other party could kill him in one move?

Therefore, the safest approach is to use the final means as soon as the opponent appears!

untie!

The moment Im saw the knot, he seemed to realize something and immediately extended a tentacle, instantly stabbing towards Beltz!

But before the tentacles could pierce through, Beltz had already untied the knot!

puff!

boom!

laugh!

*Sizzle sizzle sizzle!*

An incredibly thick and powerful black lightning bolt was released from Beltz, instantly overshadowing the domineering aura that Im had released earlier!

~~！！

The black lightning bolt shot out of the castle in an instant—no, what is a castle?

They charged straight out of the entire Elbaf!

boom----!

The sky cracked open at that moment!
