"In accordance with the 'Great Luo Heavenly Court's Law of Conquest' and the 'Cultural Code of Assimilation from Other Realms,' the case shall be adjudicated."
As soon as he finished speaking, the enormous root system of the divine tree suddenly glowed with a dark purple light.
Countless fine, rune-studded purple rays shot out from the roots like living snakes, precisely coiling around every remaining target on the battlefield who possessed sufficient "value"—Luffy, Ace, Sabo, Shanks, Dragon, Marco, Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru, Garp, Boa Hancock, Mihawk, Jinbe…
The moment the light touched the body, a terrifying suction force originating from the level of rules erupted!
"Ughh ...
A bloodcurdling scream, so shrill it was inhuman, instantly resounded through the sky!
Luffy's body convulsed violently, and an invisible, pale white ball of light, representing the fundamental rules of the "Gum-Gum Fruit," was forcibly peeled out of his body!
He felt his vitality, extensibility, and potential power belonging to "Nikka the Sun God" were being frantically drained away!
My body quickly became stiff and fragile, as if it had lost all its elasticity!
The straw hat slipped off its back.
The flames on Ace's body flickered wildly and dimmed before finally going out completely. A crimson ball of light, representing the "Flame-Flame Fruit," was extracted, and he collapsed as if his spine had been removed.
Sabo felt the source of power from the Dragon Claw Fist rapidly draining away, the blue light representing the "Dragon-Dragon Fruit - Mythical Zoan" leaving his body, and his powerful physique quickly weakening.
Shanks felt his innate Conqueror's Haki, which was as natural as breathing, being forcibly torn apart and extracted, turning into wisps of dark red smoke that were swallowed by the purple light. His soul was torn apart by excruciating pain, and Griffin fell to the ground.
The storm raging around the dragon subsided instantly, and the invisible vortex representing his "Wind-Wind Fruit" ability was stripped away, transforming into a pale blue ball of light.
Marco's Phoenix Blue Flame was completely extinguished, and the golden ball of light representing the "Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Phoenix" ability was extracted. His immortality vanished, and blood gushed from his wound.
Akainu roared like a beast under the gate of Myojin. His molten body quickly cooled, solidified, and turned back into flesh and blood. A dark red "Magma Fruit" orb with flowing magma patterns was forcibly pulled out!
The chill of the blue pheasant dissipated, and the icy blue "frozen fruit" light cluster left its body.
Kizaru's ability to transform into light particles disappeared, and the golden "Glint-Glint Fruit" light cluster was extracted.
Garp's proud, meticulously honed top-tier Armament Haki dissipated like the receding tide, greedily absorbed by the purple light.
The Empress's petrification ability, Hawkeye's unparalleled swordsmanship, Jinbe's Fishman Karate origin... all the origins symbolizing power, ability, and talent were ruthlessly stripped away under the rule-level extraction of the Divine Tree's roots!
This is not just about depriving them of their abilities; it's about fundamentally dismantling and plundering the core rules that constitute a part of their "existence"!
Countless orbs of light representing the origin of Devil Fruits, colorful clouds representing domineering cultivation, and energy imprints representing special talents, like captured fireflies, flowed along countless purple rays of light into the vast root network of the divine tree, ultimately being transported to the core of the tree canopy—the twisted, ever-changing, and greedily pulsating prototype of the "Fruit of Ten Thousand Laws"!
After absorbing so many and such powerful primordial rules, the nascent fruit shone brightly!
Its form changes even more violently and wildly!
The emanating fluctuations of energy caused the surrounding space to distort and collapse!
It's like a greedy glutton, frantically devouring the essence of this world and accelerating its own maturation!
Those powerful individuals whose source of strength had been drained collapsed like rag dolls with their internal organs ripped out, sprawled on the cold ground or shipwrecks.
His eyes were vacant, his breath was weak, and only the most primitive signs of life remained.
Their pride, their will, and everything they depended on for survival and fighting were ruthlessly crushed and stripped away by the laws of Heaven.
"The list of criminals has been entered."
Ban's voice was completely flat, as if he were reciting a dry list.
"Monkey D. Luffy, Portgas D. Ace, Sabo... and other principal offenders, burdened by destiny, stubbornly resisted the Heavenly Court, and their sins are grave. According to the law, their original nature is stripped away, and they are thrown into the 'Well of Assimilation' to reshape their souls and serve the Heavenly Court for eternity to atone for their sins."
(Well of Ascension: A torture device/magical instrument used by the Heavenly Court to reform the souls of stubborn individuals from other worlds)
"Red-haired Shanks, Monkey D. Dragon... and other accomplices, stripped of their original essence, their cultivation destroyed, and imprisoned on 'Hardship Planet' to mine the world's foundation stone until their deaths."
(Exile planet: a planet with an extremely harsh environment where important resources are extracted)
"The rest of us, including the remnants of the navy, pirates, and revolutionary army, all those with fighting ability, will be infiltrated into the 'Sin Army Camp' of the Fighting Department to serve as vanguard warriors, conquering the other world and redeeming ourselves through meritorious service. Those who are cowardly in battle will be beheaded."
"All common people shall be registered and brought under the rule of the Heavenly Court, and settled in accordance with the new laws."
The cold verdict, like a final death knell, tolled in the hearts of every survivor.
There was no pleading, no cursing, only a deathly silence and numbness.
The flames of resistance were extinguished completely, leaving not even ashes.
Madara Uchiha's figure slowly merged into the dark trunk of the Divine Tree, leaving behind only a final, chilling proverb that echoed between heaven and earth:
"This realm shall be the territory of the Great Luo Heavenly Court. All living beings shall be bathed in the grace and power of the Heavenly Court's laws. Those who obey shall prosper, and those who defy shall perish; this will remain unchanged for eternity."
……
The Heavenly Calendar, Year 152, Frost Month.
The Great Luo Heavenly Court, the Lingxiao Palace, and the Myriad Realms Star Chart Pavilion.
The enormous star map slowly rotated, with countless stars flashing and representing the territories of the myriad realms.
A celestial official dressed in a dark black robe, with a calm and composed expression, held a blue talisman pen that was neither gold nor jade. He steadily wrote the last stroke on a dark gold jade scroll that floated in the air and exuded a vast aura.
On the page of the jade scroll that was unfolded, the originally chaotic star field was replaced by a clear star map.
At the heart of the star map is the phantom of a magnificent tree with lush foliage and roots that reach into the stars.
Below the illusory image, the official name of this world, as recorded by the Heavenly Court, is displayed:
[One Piece Sequence World - Number 753]
On one side of the star map, a line of sharp, knife-like, and supremely majestic vermilion characters slowly emerged:
[Conquest complete, territory secured, now incorporated into the map.]
With a flick of his wrist, the celestial official conjured a cold, black iron seal with intricate cloud patterns and a miniature divine tree motif at its center. The seal ink was a mixture of solidified stardust and golden sand of law, radiating an eternal, undying glow.
"Snapped."
A soft sound, yet it was remarkably clear in the silent Star Chart Pavilion.
The black iron fire lacquer seal was firmly imprinted on the lower right corner of the star map in the jade book, which represented the [One Piece Sequence World].
The imprint is clear, cold, and eternal.
The two characters written above:
[Recruited]
The celestial official put away the talisman brush and sealing wax seal, and lightly swept away the dust with his whisk.
The dark gold jade scroll that recorded yet another world's conquest and assimilation silently closed, transforming into a stream of light that flew into the vast, layered jade slip bookshelves deep within the Star Chart Pavilion, reaching all the way to the dome. There, it stood alongside countless jade scrolls recording other conquered worlds, indistinguishable from them.
Outside the Star Chart Pavilion, the sea of clouds surged, the celestial palaces stretched endlessly, and the sounds of bells and chimes echoed in the eternal order of the Heavenly Court.
Another lower realm has been completely submerged under the brilliance of the Great Luo, becoming an insignificant yet forever marked cold star in this myriad worlds star map.
Chapter 270, The Middle Thousand Worlds: "Natsume Has Someone Protecting Him"
Uchiha Ei sat atop a throne formed from pure laws, his eyes closed, his consciousness already merged with the roots of the divine tree that traversed the Great Luo Realm, probing into the boundless, bizarre, and chaotic sea.
His perception, like invisible roots, spreads through the turbulent currents of spacetime and the gaps between dimensions, filtering the fluctuations of billions of worlds.
The demonic laws of the Inuyasha world, and the Devil Fruits and Haki rules of the One Piece world, acted like fresh nourishment, making the nascent "Fruit of All Laws" on the main trunk of the Divine Tree pulsate even more powerfully, and the dark purple light it emitted contained more complex and profound rules and patterns.
The spatial barriers of the Great Luo Realm also became more solid, and the spiritual energy within the realm became increasingly pure, showing faint signs of transforming into a higher level.
However, Uchiha Sō's ambitions went far beyond that. While the laws of the Lesser Thousand Worlds could enrich the Divine Tree, they could hardly give birth to a "Perpetual Immortal God" who could truly rival the core power of the Heavenly Court.
He needs a more powerful world origin, a more complete "Tao" and "Principle," to temper the Divine Tree, and to pave the way to the Six Paths level (Heavenly Court Immortals) for the best among the eight righteous gods under his command.
His consciousness scanned the chaotic sea, skimming over countless tiny bubbles of worlds, some vibrant with life, some deathly still, and some raging with elemental fury.
Powerful figures such as Madara Uchiha, the lord of the Fighting Division, and Hashirama Senju, the lord of the Lightning Division, are leading the Heavenly Court's elite forces through the area, swiftly enforcing the Heavenly Laws of conquest and assimilation.
The demons and monsters of Nurarihyon no Mago were reduced to ashes under the "Limbo: Border Prison"; the light wine containing the secrets of life in the Mushishi world was greedily absorbed by the roots of the Divine Tree; the faith power of the Fox Deity was stripped away and integrated into the Heavenly Dao Network of the Great Luo Realm...
Every conquered world adds weight to the foundation of the Great Luo Heavenly Court and contributes to the Divine Tree bearing even more perfect fruits of myriad laws.
Suddenly, Uchiha Sō's consciousness touched upon a unique "ripple".
That wasn't a single law fluctuation commonly seen in minor worlds, but rather a kind of...
Profound, vast, and interwoven with the pulse of countless ancient wills and pure spirituality.
It is like a deep and tranquil forest, its roots deeply embedded in the underlying laws of the chaotic sea, while its branches reach out to a higher-dimensional "sea of spirituality".
The world's barriers are tough yet resilient, subtly revealing a sense of vicissitudes accumulated over the years, and a... will to protect.
More importantly, Uchiha Zang clearly sensed that deep within the core of this world, there existed several ancient auras that transcended the limits of mortal lifespan and were nearly eternal!
They are like ancient gods in slumber, closely connected to the world itself, radiating a distant and powerful energy.
"The Middle Thousand Worlds... have finally been found."
Uchiha Eiji suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes. Deep within his Rinnegan, the nine tomoe spun wildly, reflecting the world bubble in the chaotic sea that radiated a unique spiritual light.
"Such a rich spiritual essence, such a pure world will, and... the existence of eternal beings. This world should be the resources for the advancement of my Great Luo Heavenly Court, and its name is—'Natsume's Book of Friends' sequence world!"
With a thought, a cold, authoritative, and unquestionable will traversed time and space, precisely projecting onto the leader of the Dou tribe who was carrying out an assimilation mission in a certain minor world:
"Bandit, target locked. Middle Thousand Worlds, 'Natsume's Book of Friends'."
Its core principles are 'spiritual symbiosis' and 'true name contract', and it exists in multiple eternal individuals (great demons/gods).
This realm's will is gentle yet deeply rooted. Leading the elite of the Fighting Force, with thunderous force, shatter its will to resist, capture its eternal being, strip away its core laws, and pinpoint its world coordinates. The roots of the Divine Tree will soon arrive, drawing upon its essence and assimilating into this realm!
……
Natsume's Book of Friends World: Yahara Forest: Edge.
The air was as fresh as ever, carrying the fragrance of grass, trees, and earth.
Nyanko-sensei lazily dozed off on Natsume Takashi's lap, while Natsume quietly read a book, and Aunt Touko prepared dinner inside the house.
Everything was so peaceful and serene.
However, this tranquility was shattered in the next instant!
Without warning, the sky was forcibly torn open by a huge crack burning with dark red energy flames!
At the edge of the crack, space twisted and collapsed like shattered glass, emitting a tooth-grinding groan.
A chilling, murderous, and terrifying pressure filled with an absolute will to conquer, like billions of icebergs crashing down, instantly enveloped the entire Hachihara and rapidly spread throughout the world!
"Waaaaah—!"
