Offer blocks to the end times

"That was just ordinary word magic; its power is much greater in dreams," Hashirama explained briefly.

“Other worlds are truly terrifying,” Echidna sighed, “but that’s precisely what makes them interesting.”

"It's scarier than you think. I won't take you there without a contract," Hashirama said with a grin, as various phantoms kept appearing around him. Echidna was dazzled by the strange objects and was very curious. Even with her own book, she didn't know what they were.

“Alright, as long as the child you’re looking for can pass the ‘trial,’ I will give you the ‘memory of the world,’” Echidna said after thinking for a moment. “If he fails, you must take me to that world.”

“That’s a good idea, but I won’t place my hopes on others. Besides, I won’t take you there without a contract,” Hashirama shook his head, intending to force himself on you.

“Then, my final bottom line is that we treat the contract as a gamble,” Echidna said with a smile as she looked at Hashirama. “Here, we can use all the techniques we’ve ever seen. If you can defeat me here, I will agree to the contract. In return, you must take me there unconditionally.”

Chapter 715 The War of Words

“Okay,” Hashirama couldn’t figure out why he failed, but Echidna smiled and raised her hand, “Gravity!”

"Crack!" A powerful force crushed Hashirama, while Echidna, standing to the side, was still saying triumphantly, "This is the ultimate move of the Melancholy Demon Hector. I couldn't resist it back then either. You should just admit defeat!"

"Gravity magic, huh? I can do that too! Stabilize the gravity field!" Hashirama transformed into a floating ball of light and used the most important and basic technique of this series of spells, creating a stable gravity field around himself. After all, using this kind of magic could easily crush him to death or send him flying!

"Oh, right, you should try it too, a hundred times gravity field!" Following Hashirama's magic, Echidna actually used the same magic as Hashirama. "This won't work on me!"

"Kamui!" Hashirama, too lazy to fight her anymore, directly used a mental attack to overwhelm her through their difference in rank. Echidna calmly said, "I am unaffected by the pressure."

"Is this what they call Pandora's power?" Hashirama looked helplessly at the smug Echidna. "Silence! Vacuum World!"

“I can speak under any circumstances,” Echidna’s voice still came through. “I am unaffected by magic! Unharmed by weapons!”

"Uh," Hashirama stared speechlessly at Echidna, who was spouting nonsense, "High voltage!"

Just as Echidna was about to say something, she was immediately reduced to a pile of charred remains. Hashirama was about to go over and beat her up when he noticed that she had recovered and was radiating a very attractive light. Then he met her eyes, and an extreme hunger welled up in Hashirama's heart.

"Mechanical Mind!" Hashirama realized he was losing control of his consciousness, so he quickly activated his mental mechanization skill. In this state, Hashirama unleashed dozens of explosions.

“Really,” Echidna shook her head. She stood there seemingly unaffected by the attack, while many strange magical beasts appeared around her and attacked Hashirama, but were all destroyed by Hashirama with a single blow.

"Hand over the book," Hashirama said mechanically. To be honest, he was too straightforward in this state and accidentally blurted out his true thoughts. "Liquid nitrogen rain, decay bottle!"

Seeing that Hashirama's attacks were becoming increasingly strange, Echidna sighed, and a black book slowly appeared in her hand. "This is the 'Memory of the World,' which records all the knowledge of this world's past, present, and future. Originally, everything was unchanging, but everything changed because of your appearance."

"But now I'll let you experience its power and see how you deal with so many enhanced people!" As she spoke, figures kept appearing on the side and attacking Hashirama. Among them were Reinhard, Ram, the Five Witches, and many other characters.

"Divine Strike!" Hashirama unleashed the strongest attack of the Winged God, instantly vaporizing the surrounding figures and creating a gaping hole in the world. This was not magic; it was divine art!

Then the same attack was aimed at Echidna, but she opened the book and aimed it at Hashirama. Hashirama was instantly transported to another world. Echidna chuckled softly and closed the book, "Let's see if you can break through a world."

"Twin Power, World Destruction EX!" Hashirama activated the skill he learned from Chito and Yuri without hesitation. In an instant, the world was destroyed, and a page in the book turned black and shattered. Hashirama emerged from it.

"Divine Dispel! Status Dispel," Hashirama used divine magic and Reinhard's blessing to remove all the statuses from Echidna, who was immediately crushed by the surrounding gravity field.

"Wait, Lord Hashirama, I surrender!" Echidna cried out as Hashirama was about to attack again. Hashirama then dispelled the magic. "You could have just said so earlier. It would have made things difficult for everyone. I don't want to stay in this cold and aloof state forever."

"Tch," Echidna said with a displeased expression. Hashirama looked at the 'Memory of the World' in her hand. "I'll lend this to you for now. I'll try out the effects of divination on this."

"Divination? That kind of ordinary and unreliable prophetic spell?" Echidna was very disappointed.

"In that case, I can make you a Book of Wisdom; that can also be used for prophecy."

“That works too,” Hashirama nodded, paused for a moment, and studied the book. This time, Hashirama knew how to construct the book. It was a system that recorded everything in the world and made predictions, but it required a quantitative amount of matter and energy in the world. If there was any external interference, it would produce completely different consequences.

Hashirama didn't need to make predictions; he simply placed the system into the dream world, and it would operate automatically there, unlike now, where it keeps repeating itself.

After the spell was broken, Hashirama saw a phantom fall out of the book, which then transformed into a new black book. "This is the degraded 'Memory of the World,' the Book of Wisdom, which Beatrice and Roswaal both possess."

"I see," Hashirama slowly walked over. "By the way, how did you break the soul contract?"

“Just split a little bit of the soul,” Echidna said briefly, while parting the hair in front of her forehead, where there was no diamond-shaped mark at all!

"Seriously, I wouldn't dare take you back like this," Hashirama said, scratching his head in exasperation. This girl was a ticking time bomb! He was starting to consider giving up on Echidna, and picked up the black book. "Alright, think about it again."

Echidna stared at the huge hole in the sky, tears welling up in her eyes. "This is really troublesome. Repairing it will be very difficult."

"Don't worry, it's easy to handle," Hashirama waved his hand gently, and a layer of gray mist slowly repaired the large hole in the sky. "It will be fine soon."

"Phew, thanks for your help," Echidna breathed a sigh of relief. Hashirama shook his head. "It's too desolate. I can help you renovate it."

Countless flowering trees sprouted from the ground, transforming the surrounding area into a lush forest where many adorable animals and strange plants hopped about.

On the surface, this dream world is much richer, but Hashirama has a deeper idea: to use his power to permeate this dream world and seize control of it. He can do without Dona, but he can't let the world go. But if the world is taken away, can Dona inside still escape?

“Thank you, this makes things much more interesting,” Echidna replied happily. Hashirama then left, having tried to create a blank 'memory of the world' before using it to perform a divination.

"Among the experts, Reinhard and the Witch of Envy should be considered the pinnacle, followed by the Archbishop of Greed. Ram is also very strong, as are Puck, Beatrice, and Roswaal. The other Archbishops of Sin are also quite powerful."

Chapter 716 The Conflicted Hashirama

Hashirama breathed a sigh of relief. "So it only records events from this world. But Reinhard and Jealousy are the pinnacle? That's great."

Next, Hashirama deduced information about the bishops of the great sins and produced a document.

Petruccius Romani-Conti, one of the founders of the Cult of Sloth, was originally an evil spirit who could take over the bodies of others. He collapsed a hundred years ago for unknown reasons and is now a madman. He is the most active Archbishop of Sin, possessing the power of the Invisible Hand. He is the weakest among the Archbishops of Sin, but he seems to have some connection with Beatrice. He possesses a degraded version of the Book of Wisdom, the Gospel.

Regulus Xerneas, the Archbishop of Sin, possesses the greatest power: the Lionheart, the ability to stop time, and the power to transfer one's own heart to another, thus achieving absolute invincibility.

Sirius Romani-Conti, the "Angry" woman, possesses terrifyingly twisted values ​​and language. She has powers and emotional connections, sharing emotions and harm within a certain range. If anyone around her is killed, including the person who attacked her, they will also die.

'Lust' Capella Lugnica possesses immortality, can regenerate after being decapitated, has dragon blood that can corrode the body and cause extreme pain, and the power of transformation, allowing her to turn others into different forms and control them.

'Gluttony' Batinkets possesses three bodies. Without using his powers, he is the strongest Archbishop of Sin. His powers include devouring, knowing a person's true name, holding their hand, and saying their name. He can devour the other person's memories and existence, gain their abilities, and even change their behavior and tone of voice. He can also use the other person to share his damage.

“Besides ‘arrogance’,” Hashirama murmured, and began to perform divination based on the information. However, he could not find any more information, because in his divination, not only was the future uncertain, but the past was also shrouded in a lot of mystery, especially more than four hundred years ago, which was a complete mess and impossible to divinate forward.

He then started counting the monsters and discovered that the strongest ones here were the three great magical beasts: the white whale, the multi-rabbit, and the black snake.

The white whale is a giant magical beast that flies through the air. In addition to its powerful attacks, it can also spew out a "mist of disappearance". Anyone who is touched by the mist will disappear, and others will also forget everything about that person. However, it was originally created by the Gluttony Witch as a food-type magical beast based on the premise that it is "huge and has a lot of meat that can fill the stomachs of many people".

The Great Rabbit is a small, white, one-horned rabbit, but it lives in groups and will devour any animal that passes by. Even if only one is left, it will multiply and reproduce at an incredible speed. It is a food-type magical beast created by the Gluttony Witch based on the premise that it can automatically reproduce and never have to worry about being eaten. However, Hashirama believes that the "Big Rabbit" he killed was probably this one.

A black snake, a long, black snake, leaves its mark wherever it goes.

Black, everything is polluted and forms miasma, which destroys people and demi-humans in the places it passes through. It is a food-type monster created by the Gluttony Witch with the premise of 'killing other people who can eat'.

"As expected of the original world, so many powerful abilities," Hashirama sighed. Although he knew that the more primordial the world was, the stronger the various abilities would be, this still felt a bit like cheating.

Fortunately, Ais was going to participate in the trial and didn't have a chance to encounter these people, otherwise she would have easily failed. Meanwhile, Hashirama was thinking of a sure way to defeat the few people he faced.

Dinner seems to be over now. Hashirama sees Subaru and Emilia lying on the lawn outside looking at the stars, and he tries to comfort her.

Hashirama also looked up, but he didn't know anything about it. After calculating for Natsuki Subaru and finding that he hadn't died in the past few days, Hashirama went to another world.

After passing through a barrier, Hashirama arrived at the daytime side. The atmosphere here was peaceful, with both land and sea, but no magical beasts. Hashirama flew here for a while, and then saw a floating island in the sky. He immediately flew towards it.

However, no matter how he flew towards it, Hashirama couldn't reach it. After carefully sensing it, he realized that it was in another layer of space. Hashirama thought for a moment, tore open the crack and went in. He then found that there were cocoon-like objects here. After touching them slightly, Hashirama knew what this place was.

It turns out that this is the reincarnation place where the goddess will work in the future. The angels here are being nurtured and will become the goddess's subordinates. However, the gestation period will still be many years. They are manifesting now to absorb the faith of this world.

Hashirama shook his head, deciding not to disturb their development any longer, and left the area. He flew around several times but didn't find anything interesting, so he went back to his bedroom to continue reading, completely unaware of the commotion he had caused by his random flight.

In the morning, Hashirama practiced various skills there. The many novel spells here gave Hashirama a lot of inspiration, and he is now familiarizing himself with his various abilities.

After a while, Subaru Natsuki also ran out. Upon seeing Hashirama, he took him away. "Yo, Hashirama, you're awake early. And who's this?"

He pointed to the distorted ball of light in Hashirama's hand and asked, to which Hashirama replied, "This is magic that combines the six elements, but I'm not very familiar with it yet."

"Won't this explode?" Natsuki Subaru exclaimed worriedly as he watched the distorted ball of light. Then he saw Hashirama shatter the ball with a single grasp, and a gust of wind swept around. "So powerful!"

"It's nothing, I just maxed out my magic resistance," Hashirama said smugly, displaying a superior air before nodding to Subaru Natsuki. "Now, it's time for you to practice your magic."

"Yes, Master!" Natsuki Subaru immediately stood up straight and saluted. "But what exactly should we do?"

“Practice makes perfect,” Hashirama said, setting up a wooden chair and sitting down. “Let’s begin.”

“Okay,” Natsuki Subaru nodded wryly, then cheered himself up, “Natsuki Subaru, you have to do your best! You must learn some cool magic and give Emilia a surprise.”

Then, the tedious magical training began. Natsuki Subaru tried to condense Spirit Balls with his own magic power until his magic power was exhausted. Then Hashirama would replenish his magic power and teach him how to develop Spirit Balls of different shapes.

Next, they practiced the Substitute Technique. Subaru Natsuki drew several hand seals and practiced them continuously until his hands got tangled together and he couldn't separate them.

Even healing spells couldn't cure him, so Hashirama had no choice but to let him rest and practice more in the future. However, a little while later, Ram dragged Subaru Natsuki off to work.

Hashirama slowly tried out various abilities. To be honest, he coveted all sorts of overpowered skills, but they all came with various conditions, which was quite annoying. For example, some required borrowing the power of someone else, like the Dragon Slayer; others required a special organ, like the Sharingan; and still others required eating something to gain the ability, like the Viral Fruit. Hashirama couldn't get any of these! And even if he did, he wouldn't know how to use them!

Just as Hashirama was struggling with his decision, Ram rushed out of the castle and stood attentively at the entrance. Then, a dragon chariot came galloping in, driven by a knight dressed in full armor. Hashirama sat on the grass to the side and watched curiously.

Then he noticed a cat-eared girl and a woman dressed as a man getting out of the car. Hashirama thought for a moment and then started making glasses on the side.

After talking with them for a while, Ram looked at Hashirama and said, "Lord Hashirama, they are looking for you."

"Is that so?" Hashirama put on his glasses and looked at them. The cat-eared girl was called Felix, and the cross-dressing beauty was called Crusch. He had heard of both of their names before. Could they be here because of the Sword Demon?

Hashirama brushed the grass clippings off his clothes and stood up. "What do you want?"

"Are you Lord White Dragon?" Crusch looked intently at Hashirama, who nodded. "It must be me. Are you here about the Sword Demon?"

“Wilhelm’s departure is his freedom,” Crusch shook her head and looked at Hashirama seriously. “But does Lord White Dragon want to revive the royal family in order to regain control of this country?”

“That’s a good idea,” Hashirama nodded, looking thoughtful, but then he glanced at Crusch’s serious face. “Don’t you want to…”

Hoping for the resurrection of royalty? Well, you were chosen as king after all. I'm truly sorry for ruining your chance to become king.

Chapter 717 The Greedy 'Dragon'

“No, I don’t care whether I can become king or not. I just think that Lugnica can’t rely on dragons for everything. It can’t go on like this,” Crusch said earnestly.

“I agree with what you said,” Hashirama nodded and continued, “but please rest assured, I’m not helping you for no reason. It’s just that someone paid the price of reviving the royal family, so I agreed to revive them.”

After hearing Hashirama's words, the two were stunned for a moment before asking in surprise, "What exactly is the price? It's enough to get Shenron to personally intervene?"

“Reinhard, once those royals are resurrected, he will be mine,” Hashirama said casually, then looked at the two astonished people. “Do you have any wishes? I can help you if you pay the right price.”

"Um, are you really a dragon?" The cat-eared girl was very skeptical, feeling that this person was far from the selfless dragon of legend!

“Of course, I’m not the silly dragon you signed,” Hashirama replied casually, his form slowly changing. “I’m much greedier and more pragmatic. Whether it’s treasure or knowledge, power or talent, I want it all!”

“So, as long as you pay a higher price than Reinhard, I can also give up resurrecting the royal family.” At this moment, Hashirama had transformed into a white dragon a hundred meters tall, and everyone in the castle ran out.

"That's a dragon?!" the surrounding people exclaimed in surprise. Hashirama immediately returned to his original form. "Looks like I've caused you all trouble. But what are your thoughts?"

“It’s nothing,” the two shook their heads blankly. Hashirama said with a hint of regret, “Say something. After all, you have ‘Blue’ Felix Argyle by your side. He’s a great collectible.”

"Ah!" the cat-eared girl exclaimed, hugging Crusch and shouting, "I'm not tasty at all!"

“Of course I know, but those who can obtain the title of ‘Blue’ at the pinnacle of water magic are extremely rare talents. I am very interested in your knowledge,” Hashirama said casually, and Felix breathed a sigh of relief. “Phew, that’s great.”

“I did not pay the price of Phyllis to fulfill my wish,” Crusch shook her head firmly, “and the person I want to resurrect is also a member of the royal family.”

"Is that so? What a pity," Hashirama sighed. A group of people walked over, and Riveria and the others bowed. "Lord Senju, what happened here?"

“It’s nothing, I just used a spell,” Hashirama said casually, then pointed at Crusch and teased Riveria, “But you two have a similar vibe, though she’s not as mature as you.”
