God-level veteran driver of crossover anime

　"Therefore, I hereby publicly announce to everyone today! Our demonic faction will hold tripartite talks with the fallen angels and the angelic faction! This will end our days as cannon fodder! Our destiny will be in our own hands!"

Seraph's ability to manage the atmosphere was clearly remarkable. After stirring up everyone's anger, she once again turned the tide, elevating everyone's emotions to new heights! She officially informed everyone of the trilateral talks!

"Awooo~ Awooo~ Awooo~"

Almost instantly, the terrifying howls of the demons echoed throughout the entire sub-hell plane!

"Of course, peace talks don't mean we've given up; we will still fight! Only the way we fight will change! Speaking of which, we must mention the great Demon King Beelzebub! It was his great creation that changed the balance of power among the three factions and facilitated the tripartite talks! And all of this stems from the ranking game Rating | Game created by the Demon King Beelzebub! Rating | Game will be officially promoted across the three factions, allowing everyone to form their own teams! Perhaps many people are not yet familiar with Rating | Game, so please welcome our Demon King Beelzebub, Ajaka, to explain the essence of Rating | Game!"

After letting everyone vent for a long time with a smile, Seraph raised her hands, made a gesture of pressing down in the air, and continued the topic, moving on to another important matter of the day, handing the stage over to one of today's two main characters, Ajaka!

Seraph exaggeratedly attributed all the credit for the tripartite talks to Ajka, propelling him to the top! Although Seraph's statement was somewhat exaggerated, she achieved her goal: everyone's attention was focused on Ajka, but the entire venue was filled with whispers.

"Hey, didn't I hear that Ajaka was some kind of spy from the main plane? How did he become a hero who mediates the relationship between the three parties?"

"It seems there's been some misunderstanding."

"Rumors are indeed not to be believed."

……

Recently, various rumors about Ajaka have been rampant throughout the entire Lesser Hell plane. Many people are skeptical and hold a highly doubtful attitude towards these rumors, with the majority not believing them. After all, Ajaka has been famous for a long time; he is usually low-key, but his demon king aura is still formidable. The reason these rumors have spread so widely is partly due to strong promotion by certain individuals, and partly because gossip and news about demon kings tend to circulate widely.

This time, it was Demon King Seraph who said these words in front of the other three Demon Kings, which made them even more convincing, and all the rumors were dispelled in an instant.

And that's exactly the effect everyone wanted, including Lin Qi who orchestrated it all. Sudden turns and unexpected twists are what make things interesting!

“Sazex, come with me.”

Seraph stepped back, giving the center stage to Ajax and gesturing for him to speak. Ajax, who had been wearing an enigmatic smile, suddenly whispered something to Sazex, who was standing right next to him.

Sazex frowned slightly, subconsciously feeling that Ajka was different today, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. After a moment of silence, for some unknown reason, Sazex actually stood up and walked side by side with Ajka to the center of the stage.

Ajaka, who should have been facing the audience, completely ignored everyone at this moment, his eyes fixed on Sazex right next to him. The smile on his lips suddenly turned somewhat ferocious, and he exuded a special power fluctuation as he spoke to Sazex: "Actually, you have always been a very simple person. As a demon, your heart is too soft. I have always wanted to fight you head-on. Come on, let me see your strength."

"boom!"

After he finished speaking, a special power fluctuation suddenly erupted, and a huge pale gold square magic circle enveloped the entire stage. Seraph and the other demon king, who were originally standing on the stage, were instantly ejected as the magic circle appeared. In the blink of an eye, only Ajaka and Sazex remained on the entire stage.

"Ajeka, what are you doing?!"

"Ajeka was indeed a spy!"

"This is... divine power?! The power of a false god! Is Ajeka really a hidden false god?! How did he do that?!"

The sudden turn of events left everyone stunned, while many others began to roar in madness. A very few knowledgeable individuals suddenly realized what the peculiar power emanating from Ajeka was: the power of a false god!

"Damn it! What is this thing?! Why can't I break it!"

After regaining their senses, Seraph and the other demon lord immediately attacked the magic circle surrounding Ajeka and Sazex. However, all their attacks were dissolved by the golden light and could not affect the operation of the magic circle in the slightest. Sazex's guards glared fiercely at Ajeka and roared angrily!

"I am the God of Chess, and this is one of my divine skills: observing the game without speaking. No one except the pieces on the board can interfere in our battle. This time, you can only intervene after Sazex and I have determined the winner."

Ajaka, beaming with a bright smile, explained to everyone. Only then did they realize that the magic circle beneath Ajaka and Sazex's feet had been arranged into a chessboard! Ajaka and Sazex were respectively the kings of the black and white pieces!

"You are clearly a false god, how were you able to deceive everyone?!"

"This is another of my amazing skills: chess piece creation. The chess pieces I create can be adjusted in terms of their aura, strength, and appearance."

Seraph appeared much calmer, but she still had to put on an act, keeping a cold face as she asked Ajeka a question that had been puzzling her for a long time.

Ajaka snapped his fingers, and instantly an Ajaka who looked exactly like him slowly formed beside him. Although the two looked identical, their auras were completely different. The newly appeared Ajaka exuded pure demonic aura! When the two stood side by side, it was impossible to tell the difference between them!

Hidden in the shadows, Lin Qi revealed an expression of "I knew it!" Divine skills were indeed capable of changing the entire battle situation, and the abilities were diverse and varied, making them impossible to defend against!

Sazex's face was as cold as the December chill; his gaze was icy as he stared at Ajax and asked, "Why?"

"There is only one path to the summit, and it only allows one person to pass at a time."

Chapter 255 308

"why?"

Compared to all the rioting demons present, Sazex appeared much calmer. He merely stared at Ajaka with a gloomy expression and an aura unique to demon king. While everyone in the entire sub-hell plane doubted Ajaka, the only one who believed him was Sazex. However, Sazex did not expect that the rumors were actually true, which made it difficult for him to accept for a moment.

"There is only one path to the summit, and only one person can walk it at a time. Now it is time to tell everyone who can walk this path. I have been waiting for this day for a long time."

Ajaka kept smiling, as if the whole situation was under his control. With that chilling smile, Ajaka slowly began to explain.

In Ajax's heart, the only one in the entire sub-hell plane capable of being his opponent was Sazex. Their war was without gunpowder, and it had already begun when Lucifer's position was decided. Originally, Ajax and Sazex were destined to have a battle, but Ajax's original plan was always to wait until she became a true god. However, this opportunity for a decisive battle was brought forward by Lynch.

Furthermore, Lynch provided Ajax and Sazex with an even larger stage to wage this final battle in front of the entire demonic faction!

"Why did you give up your position to me in the first place?"

Ajka's answer silenced Sadex for a moment, and his imposing aura diminished. Others might not know, but Sadex knew very well that when deciding on the new Lucifer, his only competitor was Ajka. To be precise, Ajka was actually capable of defeating Sadex at the time, and Sadex was even mentally prepared for defeat. However, what he didn't expect was that at the crucial moment of the decisive battle, Ajka gave up. He did not choose the position of Lucifer, the ruler of the lesser hell plane, but instead chose the position of Beelzebub, who assisted Lucifer.

Sazex was a man of few words, but this incident stirred up a strange feeling in him towards Ajax. The two became close friends and rivals because of this incident, and they have come this far through various wars.

But to Sazex’s utter surprise, Ajax would choose to fight him at this time, and in this way at that!

To put it bluntly, Sachs felt like he'd been betrayed by his best friend. Ajax had always been the submissive one under him, letting him do whatever he wanted, and now, in front of everyone, his friend had tied his hands and feet and forcefully attacked him! This filled Sachs with conflicting and complex emotions.

"Because I wasn't confident of defeating you back then, and there were more people supporting the Gremory family. Compared to the noble bloodline of your Seventy-Two Pillar Demon Clan, I was just an ordinary high-ranking demon. The pressure from the Gremory family forced me to endure. But today, I will take back everything that belongs to me! Including this dimension!"

Upon hearing Sazex recount what happened back then, Ajaka's expression turned somewhat ferocious as he began to explain to Sazex.

The more Ajaca talked, the more excited he became, eventually roaring with a sinister grin. He was indeed capable of taking Lucifer's place, but the pressure from the previous generation of the Gremory family had shaped him into who he was today. He had never been content to be just an assistant to Lucifer.

"I don't know what changed you, but come on."

Sazex glanced at the older generation of the Gremory family, clearly unaware of the truth behind how he became Lucifer.

However, since Ajaka had already said so much, Sazex immediately stopped talking. He took a deep breath and released the aura of the Demon King Lucifer. Red and black armor immediately emerged from the surface of Sazex's body, and a pair of huge black and red light feathers unfolded from his back, ready to fight Ajaka. He knew that only one person could leave this chessboard today!

"The path to godhood was once laid out before me, but I did not choose it, because I knew very well that it was illusory. If the power of a false god has led you astray, then let me use my power, a stronger and more real power, to awaken you."

The moment the Demon King's armor was completed, even those outside the chessboard felt a terrifying pressure. All demons below the fifth rank immediately knelt down, and those below the fourth rank prostrated themselves on the ground! The Demon King's power was evident!

Even demons above the fifth rank showed expressions of shock. The aura that Sazex was displaying at this moment was clearly beyond their expectations!

Lin Qi, mingling in the crowd, squinted at Sazex. Sazex seemed stronger than he had believed. Now it was up to Ajaka to cause him trouble. However, Lin Qi was not optimistic about Ajaka. His intuition told him that Ajaka would lose this time.

"Illusion? You're wrong! Divine Technique: Hikaru no Go! Kill!"

In any case, the only one on the field who was unmoved by Sazex's momentum was Ajeka, who was standing directly opposite him.

With a confident smile, Ajax snapped his fingers again, and instantly, phantom pieces emerged from his chessboard, transforming into various human or beast figures and charging toward Sazex with crazed expressions.

"It's the demigod Cruz! Wasn't he dead?!" "Oh my god! It's Gabriel, the former archangel who was slain by Ajeka!" "A sphinx!" "An ancient beast..."

What shocked countless people was that each of the phantoms emerging from the chessboard was once a renowned figure, exuding an aura no less imposing than that of Sazex! The only thing these phantoms had in common was that they had all died at the hands of Ajaka!

Clearly, Ajeka's divine skill can transform those who die at his hands into chess spirits that he controls!

Faced with the overwhelming illusory figures, Sazex merely snorted coldly. The next moment, countless black and red light feathers shot out from the pair of huge light feathers that had unfolded behind her, accurately hitting each illusory figure. All the illusory figures hit by the light feathers were instantly shattered, turning into countless stars that scattered throughout the entire chessboard.

At the same time, Sazex said coldly to Ajax, "If you are trying to use these pieces that you once defeated to wear down my strength, then I regret to inform you that your plan has failed."

Despite Sazex's seemingly arrogant appearance and imposing presence, Lynch sighed slightly from the audience.

"Alas, the root of the failure lies in excessive showing off. Sazex is going to capsize in the gutter this time."

Chapter 256 309

"Beelzebub's divine skills are all show and no substance!"

This was almost the true thought in the hearts of the so-called onlookers. Although Ajaka and Sazex were both among the only two sixth-order beings in the entire Lesser Hell Plane, almost everyone favored Sazex more, since Sazex was more famous throughout the entire Lesser Hell Plane.

Sazex's strength at this moment did indeed seem more formidable. Although Ajeka had trapped Sazex and the chess spirits he released were also impressive, Sazex had not yet made his full move. He shattered Ajeka's seemingly powerful chess spirits simply by relying on the light feathers of the pair of demon king wings on his back.

The entire chessboard was covered with scattered fragments of the shattered Go spirits, and coupled with Sazex's cold and stern face, it made everyone feel that Beelzebub was no match for him.

The only one present who disagreed with everyone else was Lynch. Like Ajaka, Lynch was a false god, and he could tell at a glance that Ajaka's divine skills were not so simple. Lynch knew very well the wonder and power of divine skills, and that they could not possibly be so weak as to be easily defeated by Sazex. Therefore, Ajaka must have a follow-up ultimate move!

As expected, Ajax did not disappoint Lynch. Although Sazex was constantly destroying the chess spirits he released, Ajax remained calm until no more chess spirits flew out from his chessboard. Only then did Ajax say to Sazex with a mocking smile, "The purpose of these chess spirits is not to consume your power, but to enhance mine. Only after these chess spirits are shattered can I activate another ability. Divine Skill: Soul Devouring!"

With another fierce shout from Ajeka, the Go Soul fragments that had been scattered across the Go board like a thick fog were drawn into Ajeka's body as if attracted by a magnet!

As fragments of the Hikaru no Go (Hikaru no Go) continued to flow into Ajaka's body, his aura began to surge. A suit of armor, somewhat similar to, yet entirely different from, the traditional armor of Beelzebub, began to cover Ajaka's body! Everyone could feel the sudden pressure, an aura even stronger than the demonic pressure brought by Sazex!

Lin Qi also stared at Ajeka with a slightly solemn expression. Ajeka's imposing aura was one aspect, but the other was the skills Ajeka had unleashed.

The ability to create chess pieces that are indistinguishable from real ones, the chessboard that isolates everyone, the chess spirit that turns killed targets into puppets, and now the ability to amplify one's own power with the Soul Devourer—these are already four of the chess god's divine skills. Based on Lin Qi's experience, Ajaka is at least a fourth-tier pseudo-god!

Moreover, the battle between Ajeka and Sazex has only just begun. Lynch doesn't believe Ajeka has used his full strength. Ajeka is likely a fifth-tier pseudo-god! Or even a sixth-tier pseudo-god! A pseudo-god who is only missing a complete divine spark to ascend to the position of true god!

Clearly, Ajaka's years of biding his time and biding his time have made everyone underestimate his strength! Unbeknownst to many, Ajaka is actually the strongest demon in this secondary hellish plane!

However, this was not the situation Lynch wanted to see. What Lynch wanted to see was either Ajca and Sazex suffering heavy losses, or Sazex defeating Ajca.

Given Sazex's personality, even if he defeats Ajax, he probably won't kill him, which would give Lin Qi a chance. However, if Ajax kills Sazex, Lin Qi will lose one more opportunity to kill a sixth-tier opponent, which is not the outcome Lin Qi wants. Therefore, Lin Qi turned his attention to Sazex. Now he can only hope that Sazex has a stronger trump card. In addition to their own skills and abilities, the two sixth-tier beings are competing, and another factor that can turn the tide is what kind of potential is activated when they advance to the sixth tier!

Just as Lynch was secretly worried about Sazex, Ajaka had already completed his transformation after absorbing the fragments of the Go Spirits!

Ajeka's body was already covered in the Demon King's battle armor. In general, Ajeka's armor was extremely similar to that of Sazex's Demon King armor, with ferocious spikes everywhere. However, unlike Sazex's armor, Ajeka's armor was outlined with countless golden threads, making it stronger than Sazex's armor in both appearance and substance!

"This is the first time I've successfully combined the power of the Demon King and the power of the False God. It feels really good. Alright, now let everyone see who is truly the strongest being in this plane. Kill!"

After completing his transformation, Ajaka clenched his fist at Sazex, revealing a slightly maniacal smile, and then transformed into a blur as he charged straight toward Sazex!

Both Sazex and Ajax are melee-type demon lords, and their forte is hand-to-hand combat. In fact, most demons excel at melee combat, especially as their rank increases. As demons become stronger, their physical constitution becomes increasingly robust, making it difficult for ordinary magical attacks to have any effect on them. At the same time, as their bodies are strengthened, their melee capabilities also increase rapidly. It can be said that every part of their body can be used for combat. Moreover, at close range, the demonic power highly concentrated in their claws will continuously repair the wounds after they are torn open, effectively suppressing the self-healing ability of the opponent's demonic constitution. Therefore, the higher the rank of the demon, the stronger its melee capabilities.

Ajeka and Sazex are both representative figures of melee demons, and the two were locked in a fierce battle almost instantly on the golden chessboard!

"My God! I never expected Ajaka to be so strong! Lord Sazex was almost powerless against him!"

"It's over, it's over..."

In a short time, Ajeka demonstrated his formidable strength, and Sadex was almost completely dominated on the field. Ajeka was clearly faster than Sadex, so he inflicted more damage on him!
