I impersonated God in America

Although many people believe that sirens are mermaids, the transformation of this image from a bird's body to a fish's tail is actually a product of the influence of Roman post-medieval culture.

In its most primordial form, the Sirens were explicitly depicted as half-human, half-bird monsters.

Perhaps this is related to the Greeks' belief that birds possess beautiful songs.

"Sir, what should we do about this?"

"Is that even a question? First, try using earpieces to block out the noise. If they are effective, immediately dispatch troops to eliminate this guy."

After all, the mythology has already provided a solution.

"More than these questions, I'm curious why the Sirens are here?"

--------

Ministry of National Defense Command.

The deputy minister looked at the screen above, where the Apache helicopter was already skimming low towards the volcano.

All pilots' helmets are equipped with state-of-the-art noise reduction modules.

"How are things going with the town's residents?"

"In fact, the last Vesuvius event destroyed many houses in the surrounding area and forced residents to evacuate. Many of them have not yet returned."

"very good."

The helicopter circled around the side of the volcanic cone, and the siren's song still drifted towards the foot of the mountain.

"Just as we thought, as long as we can't hear the other side's singing, we can bypass their most powerful weapon."

Da da da

The machine guns spat out dense tongues of fire, and a barrage of bullets swept towards the Sirens from the side.

The sirens seemed somewhat panicked at this point, and although they continued to sing, it was to no avail.

She folded her wings before the bullets came close, dodging the first burst of bullets. A few bullets grazed the edge of her left wing, and grayish-white feathers fell from her shoulder and floated in mid-air.

The bullet grazed her feathers and struck the volcanic rock, sending up a spray of rubble.

Although she dodged quickly, the machine gun's coverage was too wide, and several subsequent shots hit her.

Everyone noticed that the area hit was slightly red; although it didn't break through the defenses, it had some effect.

Since bullets are somewhat useful, does that mean high-powered weapons...?

"Excellent! We've finally met a suitable opponent. The Sirens' defenses are weaker than we expected."

God knows what level of monsters they had faced before, besides lava giants, there were also stone snakes from Sardinia.

They were all the most annoying elemental monsters; these almost immortal monsters were incompatible with modern weapons.

"Although it is still very strong, it is at least at a level that can be fought against."

"It can only be said that our technological means have sealed off the enemy's strongest point. Otherwise, in ancient times, it would be unimaginable for such a being to spread songs in the sky to exist. It could easily destroy a city."

The sirens on the other side seemed to realize that the threat posed by their opponents was limited.

She crashed directly into the Apache helicopter that was closest to her.

Its wings folded into a spindle shape, and its entire body slammed into the armor on the side of the cockpit.

The claws gripped the edge of the hatch.

tear.

With a gentle tug, the helicopter door was instantly torn apart.

"Ahhh!"

The helicopter flipped over to one side.

Boom!

"Damn it! She's realized what's happening! Don't let her get close!"

The ground troops' tanks advanced up the hillside from the direction of the national highway.

Armor-piercing rounds were ejected from the muzzle and struck the siren that had just pulled its claws out of the helicopter wreckage.

The warhead exploded near her.

The explosion blasted her several meters away from the helicopter wreckage, sending her crashing onto the volcanic rocks at the edge of the platform.

"Beautiful! Keep bombarding her, don't let her catch her breath!"

The deputy minister was delighted to see everything going smoothly.

He was able to successfully resolve an extraordinary incident as soon as he took on the job, and even capture the legendary siren.

Maybe after this is over, he'll be able to climb the ranks.

[Maybe you can call me general someday.]

"Sir..."

"Call me General!"

"Huh? No, sir, don't get too carried away, look at the screen."

The assistant shook the deputy minister awake, and when he looked at the screen above, he broke out in a cold sweat.

The siren reached out her right hand and grabbed at the air. The moment her five fingers clenched, a trident materialized in her palm.

She tilted the trident downwards, and a wave of sound rapidly spread from the hilt towards the foot of the mountain.

The surface of the bay was torn open from below.

Several thick water snakes emerged from the shallow sea and roared as they charged toward the ground troops.

The water snake's enormous tail lashed the tank away with a single blow, and the explosion illuminated the entire hillside.

The power of the several water snakes churned the ground into a grotesque mess.

"Still reveling in it, Your Excellency?"

"Just call me sir."

On the other hand

The deputy minister looked up at the trident in the Sirens' hand, and now he seemed to know who was behind the Sirens' presence here.

"No, aren't you even going to put on an act?"

"Even if we just put on a show and change the appearance of the trident, what would we do?"

"Pah, I find that disgusting."

Chapter Ninety-Nine: Go and take care of Enkerados.

In an unnamed valley.

Rumble.

A huge boulder was being moved continuously, and the terrifying noise around it caused all the birds to scatter in all directions.

Only a few monkeys sat casually in the trees not far away, staring at the terrifying upright gibbon in front of them, some even eating bananas.

Huhuhu

Xu Ge placed his hands on the huge rock in front of him, staring down at the ground. Large beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, gradually soaking the ground.

He was panting heavily, looked up and saw that the dragging distance was several hundred meters, and finally nodded.

He then removed his hands from above the rock, closed his eyes, and sensed the changes in his body.

Indeed, physical strength is the most fundamental factor. The snake's transformation is more like an amplifier; only a sufficiently powerful body can become even stronger under the amplification of the transformation.

As the Devil Fruit power was withdrawn, his body began to shrink back, and the black flame cloud surrounding him dissipated.

Since that day when he awakened this power in extreme anger, he could feel his strength increase by at least tenfold.

Then he closed his eyes and sensed the changes around him.

He could perceive the leaves falling from the air, the fluctuations in the air, and the ripples that spread when they fell into the water more and more clearly.

[His sixth sense seems to have improved considerably as well.]

But even so...

Xu Ge glanced at the owl that had been watching him cultivate from the tree, and thought to himself.

I still can't detect that guy's presence.

Seemingly noticing Xu Ge's gaze, the owl tilted its head, then flapped its wings and came to the top of the rock, looking down at Xu Ge.

"I already learned about the whereabouts of Quetzalcoatl's feathers from the Mexican Day of the Dead. Did you come here with any new clues?"

"Let's put aside the matter of Quetzalcoatl's feathers for now; there are more important things to do."

The owl shook its head, looked at Xu Ge, and spoke.

“It seems there’s some annoying guy coming out from Mount Vesuvius lately, and I need you to reseal him.”

Xu Ge didn't take it seriously, after all, he believed his strength was different from before. He asked with extreme confidence, "Who is it?"

"Enkerados".

"..."

I'm going to fight a god-level being? Really?

Xu Ge looked at the owl speechlessly.

He still had some impression of this mythical giant.

Legend has it that he was a member of the giant race, possessing terrifying destructive power and abilities related to the earth.

Of course, for him, the giant is most famous for his battle with Athena, the goddess of wisdom and war, and the story of how he was sealed away.

"But this guy should at least be a god..."

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Ge noticed the owl pull a shield from under its wing and throw it in front of him.

Clang.

Looking at the golden round shield in front of him.

Xu Ge glanced at the owl again, speechless.

Having been around owls for so long, even someone who isn't very bright would probably have figured out who the owl's owner is.

After all, there are only a few myths related to owls.

But such an obvious platform?

He seemed to have guessed why he was sent specifically to deal with that giant.

Can I ask who I work for?

Medusa.

"I see."

------------

Naples.

The water snake swept from the bay onto the land. After its tail swept across, several armored vehicles were uprooted. Then, with a powerful flick of its tail, the snake repeatedly slammed the armored vehicles onto the ground like whack-a-mole.

After the armored vehicle was completely deformed and basically destroyed, the water snake suddenly flung it far away.

"Oh no, retreat now!"

The soldier crouching behind the obstacle looked at the armored vehicle flying in from the sky, his face showing surprise, and then jumped forward without looking back.

Rumble.

The moment the soldier dodged, the armored vehicle crashed to the ground, causing a violent explosion.

"F*** you! Luckily I ran fast."

Just as the soldiers were feeling relieved, they suddenly discovered that the water snake had tossed another armored vehicle high into the air.

Boom boom boom!
