Saint Warcury plopped down on the ice, startling everyone else, and the Cipher Pol members quickly followed suit, kneeling on the ice.
Only the Marines and those from Enies Lobby exchanged glances; compared to the Cipher Pol, which served only the Celestial Dragons, they were like adopted children, with some secret information unknown even to the Marine Admirals.
Yang Tao flew up to Imu, but her appearance was truly hard for him to accept; he had always thought Imu would be a handsome Celestial Dragon, but it turned out to be a woman with an extraordinary figure.
She wore a white cloak, her towering peaks barely covered by two simple strips of cloth, and her lower body was a white curtain, a daring display that would make even the bold Empress of One Piece feel inferior.
Her bronze skin looked very healthy, and she wore a golden crown on her head.
There was no emotion in her golden eyes, as if she were a deity looking down on all living beings.
"Imu?"
Imu opened her crimson lips slightly and said, "Outsider, even if you overthrow the World Government and kill all Celestial Dragons, it's impossible for you to become the god of this world…"
Yang Tao: "???"
"Who told you I want to become the god of this world? However, Imu, there's one thing I'm very curious about: are you Luffy's mother?"
"No."
Imu answered very directly, her expression unchanged, as she quietly stared at Yang Tao and continued, "I can allow you to become a new Celestial Dragon… or even the King of the Celestial Dragons."
Yang Tao looked at Imu, a playful smile appearing on his face, and then said, "The King of the Celestial Dragons? I personally don't like the Five Elders."
"The World Government needs them to maintain operation."
"Then there's nothing to discuss…"
Yang Tao drew his Yamato, a monstrous killing aura overflowing, but Imu remained expressionless, slowly raising her arm and pointing at Yang Tao, softly uttering a few words: "The time hasn't come yet…"
An invisible force appeared on Yang Tao.
Slowness III 0:05
Reduces movement speed by 60%.
'What kind of ability is this? But… Gate of Wonder, open.'
The Level 77 speed buff made Yang Tao's speed once again imperceptible to the naked eye, and the Yamato in his hand quickly slashed towards Imu, when a water pillar appeared out of nowhere, spraying at him like a water gun.
The water column was very thin.
However, the power of Yang Tao's quantum armor dropped extremely fast, and the Yamato quickly landed on Imu.
-861
The extremely high defense made Yang Tao's expression grave, and before he could strike a second blow, the giant machine in the sky released beams of laser, so fast that Yang Tao had no time to react before being hit.
Taking a glance at Imu, Yang Tao flew towards the giant mechanical construct in the sky without a word.
The speed of the aircraft was not fast, or rather, it didn't run at all; a water curtain blocked Yang Tao's path, and Imu's figure stood in front of him.
Yang Tao stopped and looked at Imu, asking, "Water-Water Fruit?"
"It's the Moon God Fruit…"
Imu was not at all bothered by Yang Tao's delay and still said calmly:
"Simply stripping and bestowing devil powers has no effect on you."
Yang Tao nodded slightly; he had also guessed that Imu possessed such abilities, then smiled and said, "Wait a moment, I'll change my eyes…"
With that, Yang Tao's eyes turned light blue, and an extraordinary aura emanated from him, making his demeanor somehow similar to Imu's.
"Let's try again, Shinra Tensei!"
A powerful repulsive force appeared, and Imu's body flew uncontrollably backward; Yang Tao extended his hand and aimed at Imu, softly uttering a few words: "Tengai Shinsei!"
The ground trembled, and the solid ice created by Aokiji shattered and flew towards Imu; Imu also extended her hand, and a water curtain quickly enveloped her body, and the moment the ice blocks touched the water curtain, they were shattered into powder by an invisible force.
Seeing this, Yang Tao immediately increased his Chakra accumulation, unleashing it as if it were free, and threw out many Sea stone pellets, which flew towards Imu in a dense black mass, finally breaking through her water curtain this time.
Soon, a huge ice sphere floated in mid-air.
The damage of Tengai Shinsei is extremely low, and Yang Tao, as the user, naturally knew this, but his target was not Imu.
He looked up at the sky, his eyes suddenly lighting up and emitting a gleam.
'Here it comes!'
"Tengai Shinsei!"
Just as he pulled this meteorite from space, Yang Tao's Chakra drained like a sluice, so he quickly took out a soldier pill from his mod and threw it into his mouth, instantly restoring 50% of his Chakra and gaining a Chakra recovery buff.
The sky quickly turned fiery red, and a 'small island' appeared from the heavens.
At this moment, the onlookers standing on the ground finally experienced the profound sense of powerlessness that ordinary Jonin faced against Uchiha Madara in the late stages of Naruto.
They couldn't block it, they truly couldn't.
Why did the art style suddenly change like this? We agreed to fight hand-to-hand, so why did you pull out a gun?
The ice layer of Tengai Shinsei made cracking sounds and then exploded.
Before she could launch an attack, her body flew backward as if she had been punched.
Limbo: Border Jail
Creates a clone that can only be seen by the Rinnegan or Tenseigan, but can be attacked. Cooldown: 90 seconds.
"You came out late!"
Boom!
The meteorite accurately hit the huge battleship, which was likely the Ancient Weapon Uranus, in the sky, and a violent explosion ensued.
The battleship swayed precariously, tilting down from the sky along with the meteorite.
Imu's body rapidly ascended, and black flames appeared on her; seeing this, Yang Tao narrowed his eyes slightly, extended his hand, and the shattered ice sphere, along with the fragmented meteorite and battleship debris from the sky, flew towards Imu.
A huge formation appeared beneath Imu, vanishing without a trace before the Tengai Shinsei could converge.
Yang Tao: "???"
She ran away???
The massive spherical object remained suspended in the sky, which made Yang Tao feel a bit exasperated, so he immediately unleashed Shinra Tensei at full power, sending the enormous sphere flying towards space.
'I'll save it for next time.'
This thing contains a lot of Sea stone pellets, so it can't just be thrown into the sea.
Imu didn't even use her full power; she didn't even use Haki, the most important power in One Piece.
Unfortunately, Yang Tao had already used his full power. If Imu hadn't run, he would have had to risk his life, but the life recovery in the One Piece world is simply exaggerated.
They are all incredibly tough; the more than ten thousand health points he had just taken off with his smooth combo were fully recovered by the time she ran away.
Looking down at Saint Warcury, who was slumped on the ice, Yang Tao smiled and quickly descended from the air to his side.
"Do you have any last words?"
