I guarded Impel Down for a hundred years in the pirate world.

Then, recalling the fact that Baal's fake body had thicker hair and beard than Baal's real body, Figo seemed to be deep in thought.

Without hesitation, he activated the first character event for the third-rank Akainu. Character events often provide Figo with some very important information.

And this time was no exception!

……

Flames of war, smoke of battle.

Before Figo lay a shattered landscape, with lava flowing and ruins everywhere. Akainu stood in the center of this broken land, wounded and panting heavily, as if he had just experienced a fierce battle.

As the camera zoomed out, Figo saw something familiar amidst the distant ruins.

That's... the Albita Palace?

The Skeleton King's Palace?

This is actually the capital of Capri?!

My gaze followed Akainu's gaze.

Figo saw a long-legged woman lying crookedly on the ground, with a huge hole through her chest, and she was no longer breathing.

Duke Bambri of the Longlegs, is dead?

Also present were Ipolito, the Giant King, and a host of other Dukes and Lords of Capri, as well as the Fishman King and the Mermaid King, some seriously injured, some dying, and some already dead, lying on the ground.

There was even a scattered red and black skeleton!

The Skeleton King is dead too?

The perspective shifts to Kizaru, and the art style suddenly becomes lighter. He is sitting on a huge rock, his clothes are slightly disheveled, but he is in very good condition.

Seeing Akainu looking over, he pursed his lips, shook his head, and gestured to the other side.

Over there was Aokiji, sitting amidst the ruins, embracing a corpse.

And the corpse is Garp!

Garp is dead too?

"Could this... be the future?"

These scenes, of course, never actually happened, but Figo could deduce when they might occur. Clearly, the three generals of Qinghai, Garp and his men, and the dukes and princes of Capri were all allies, and their opponent was naturally the Demon King!

Figo had noticed it long ago: at Akainu's feet, there was a handful of ashes!

So, it was Qinghai and Deng Huoxing who joined forces to defeat Lucifer, and the battle was fierce?

Where did I go?

"Is this a future without me? The giant tortoise's ability is to pull things and people it foresaw into reality to fight for it?"

The scene was still somewhat confusing, and Figo waited for them to speak.

Soon, Akainu and Kizaru communicated, and what they said confirmed Figo's conjecture.

This is indeed the final scene of the war with Lucifer, and they mention the Holy Demon King Baal, who died in the battle against Lucifer.

Mentioning the recent war, Capri gathered more than a dozen five-light kings, plus the full support of the strongmen from Qinghai, and finally defeated Lucifer.

It mentions that the remnants of the Celestial Dragons, the Vengeance Clan under the Holy Demon King, the Starry Sky Clan's powerful warriors, and the half-demon father and daughter are still fighting against the Demon Pillars and the Demon General. They need to clean up the mess as soon as possible and go to provide support.

In short, everyone must unite to fight against the demon race and kill Lucifer together.

But Figo was nowhere to be found.

Furthermore, Figo noticed two details: Kizaru addressed Akainu as "Marshal," and Aokiji had a broken leg!

So in this future, should I never have existed from beginning to end? Or is Figo just an ordinary first-generation jailer?

But this future doesn't even include the 'protagonist' Luffy? Where did Luffy go?

Since Aokiji lost his leg, shouldn't there still be two admirals, Fujitora and Green Bull? Their performance after entering the starry sky was not as good as expected, and they were not as good as the three veterans, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru?

Just as Figo was pondering these questions, Akainu and Kizaru ended their brief exchange, with Kizaru disappearing in a flash to reinforce other battlefields and Akainu leaving behind to clean up the mess, when suddenly an unexpected event occurred!

Figo didn't know what had happened at first, only seeing Akainu and the other kings who were still conscious all showing shocked expressions.

Then Akainu gave the answer.

"What happened?! Why... did I lose contact with the lamplight?"

"You too? Lord Akainu?"

"Everyone? What happened? Lucifer isn't completely dead yet?!"

A rumbling sound erupted in the distance, and a huge sea monster poked its head out from the shore!

A whole group of level-five sea monsters!

They left the sea and came ashore, launching an attack on the group of wounded soldiers and survivors. There was no communication, no interaction; they seemed to have come only to kill!

If they were in good condition, these human kings would be able to deal with level 5 sea beasts with ease, but firstly, they were injured, and secondly, the Lights had inexplicably lost contact, making it impossible for them to use the Lights' power.

The power is still there, but the essence has been weakened and the side effects are gone. It is simply unable to resist the sea monsters that have an advantage in size and strength!

One by one, they died in battle.

They scattered and tried to escape, but were surrounded.

The fierce battle lasted for a very long time, until finally only Akainu remained standing on the shattered ground, letting out an angry growl.

"Damn sea monsters! Damn ship spirits! There was definitely a conspiracy! If I had known this, I should have killed you all before Lucifer was resurrected!"

The sea monsters didn't kill him as he was dying.

Instead, they lined up to welcome the king.

From Akainu's shaky perspective, an enormous turtle appeared, poked its head out, opened its abyss-like mouth, and swallowed him whole!

The screen then went completely black.

"...What kind of causal relationship is this?"

Figo was even more confused.

In the future the giant tortoise foresaw, it swallowed Akainu whole, so it can now spit out Akainu to fight for it? Does this mean the Skeleton Emperor and his group experienced a similar fate? In another future, will they be the ones fighting to the very end, not Akainu?

Was it eventually swallowed by the giant tortoise?

Figo was still confused. He wanted to check the requirements of this character's event, but then he found that the character's event screen suddenly lit up again.

It's not over yet!

This time, the perspective is focused on the sky.

A dazzling light, as bright as the sun, twinkled in the center of the sky, with six distinct halos.

This is a lamp that illuminates the body to level six!

It belongs to Akainu, the brightest light in the future foreseen by the giant turtle, and also the sixth-level physique light that was missing from the previous fake body.

As if drawn by this light, one after another sea beasts emerged from the sea of ​​lights below, ranging in size from tens of meters to thousands of meters, gazing at the light as if on a pilgrimage!

Soon, it took flight.

Yes, it took flight!

The sea creatures, which shouldn't be able to fly, all flew towards the lamp and rushed towards the flames!

To Figo's astonishment, one was embedded in the light, a hundred were embedded in the light, ten thousand were embedded in the light, a million were embedded in the light!

The lamp didn't resist the sea beasts; instead, it kept absorbing them. Countless sea beasts' flesh and blood piled up, transforming it into an enormous sphere centered on the lamp. This scene was somewhat reminiscent of Pain using Planetary Devastation in Naruto.

When the light gathers to a certain extent, it rises upwards, continuing to expand as it goes.

It was already enormous when it emerged from the sparks of light.

They entered the starry sky and continued flying until they reached a vast, empty star field before finally stopping.

After a period of time, a protective membrane emitting a faint glow appeared on the huge sphere made of the flesh and blood of the sea monster.

A protective film when the lights are off?

No, this is a planetary protective membrane?!

Figo stared at the sphere that looked exactly like a star in the sky, and his heart trembled.

What does this mean? A planet evolved from a level-six lamp as its core and from the flesh and blood of countless sea beasts?!

"...Does this mean a third-magnitude star?"

"So... these scenes might not be from the future, but... the past?!"

A sense of enlightenment dawned on Figo, and as he thought of the millions of planets in the starry sky, a chill suddenly ran down his spine!

Chapter 372 The Spirit of the Lamp and Reincarnation

【Character Event 1 (Activated): The brightest physical light was stripped away and transformed into a star, turning him into a mindless puppet. Although Sakazuki gained relative immortality, this immortality was worse than death for him.

Event Request: Help Sakazuki get out of trouble.

After staring at the activated character event for a long time, Figo's mood gradually calmed down.

This activated his second character event.

The footage of this incident was very brief and completely black. Sakazuki was inside the giant tortoise's belly and could only see countless shadowy figures around him while hearing the tortoise's roar.

It seems to be saying something.

[Character Event 2: The power of Gaston Figo, the King of the Stars, was a huge surprise to the Spirit of the Lamp. In this cycle, it felt that it might be able to obtain a second first-magnitude star.]

By connecting all the details, Figo has uncovered the whole truth of the matter!

A chilling truth!

In fact, he had similar thoughts before.

Event Requirement: On the Day of Doom, assist the Spirit of Light in devouring Gaston Figo.

"The Spirit of the Lamp".

"I... am the second first-magnitude star."

Figo was not a biologist, and he had little interest in exploring the origins of humankind or the origins of various races, so such thoughts only flashed through his mind and were not pursued in depth.

But now we're being forced to investigate further.
