Chapter 419 Your Eternity Ends Here
Accompanied by that low, resonant response.
Above the starlit sky and the burning holy land, a speck of color appeared.
"boom!"
A black pillar formed from jet-black flames roared up from the depths of Pangu City.
The surrounding space seemed to be wailing and collapsing.
The pitch-black flames began to spread.
And within those pitch-black flames.
A figure with demonic wings slowly took flight.
His posture had already been seen by everyone not long ago.
But his demeanor was something never seen before.
It was not through the arrival of the soldiers, nor by the descent of some of their power.
At this moment, in this sacred place, under the power of the Pillars of Creation, and under the power of "freedom" that was taken away not long ago.
What is revealed is the true king of the world.
Even through Roy's eyes, one can see the true nature of Im's demeanor.
It was a vast outline constructed from countless painful, evil, vile, and ugly desires.
It is a monster composed of all the malice in the world.
That is... the abyss.
"How disgusting."
But at this moment, Roy remained calm.
Although he could sense that the restraints on the other party had been largely dissipated after absorbing most of Luffy's Nika power not long ago, and with the influence of the power of the Pillars of Creation here, it could even be said that they had recovered to their full strength.
He was simply standing there, and the pressure emanating from him seemed enough to cause the world to collapse.
However, Roy remained calm.
The starlight around him continued to flow, unwavering and steadfast.
"This is truly presumptuous."
Im also looked at Roy, his voice low.
He didn't dwell on Roy's identity, nor on the fact that the twelve constellations were originally one person—to him, these things were unimportant.
The only important thing is... to kill this [kind] in front of you.
"boom!"
There were no fancy probing questions or verbal exchanges.
The battle broke out after only two greetings.
Im raised his hand—darkness gathered in his palm.
"Waaaaaahhhhhh!"
In an instant, the entire red earth continent emitted a roaring sound as if it were alive.
But that was clearly not because the Red Earth had truly come to life—but rather because this magnificent behemoth existing at the ends of the earth was crumbling.
Huge cracks began to widen across the imperial crown like a spider web, and countless rocks collapsed and fell from the edge of the continent.
Inside Mary Geoise, the Celestial Dragons began to wail and scream in terror as the entire Mary Geoise began to collapse, and they could even feel themselves sinking deeper and deeper.
"Lord Im...you..."
"Help! Help! Protect the Emperor!"
"Didn't you have an agreement with our ancestors? Stop!"
They growled.
But Im ignored him.
He simply extracted more than two-thirds of the mass of the entire red earth and let it fall.
But as it fell, the countless rocks vanished into thin air, replaced by a huge, black, flaming sword.
Its mere existence, with its immense mass, distorts the surrounding space.
"Abyss Sword!"
Im raised his hand, and the giant sword, which contained more than two-thirds of the mass of the Red Line continent, crashed down towards Roy!
Although everyone knows that an attack of this magnitude would inevitably destroy Mary Geoise as well, and would also cause the descendants of the world nobles who signed the contract to die—which would cause Im to also suffer the backlash of the contract after the war.
But Im clearly didn't care about any of that anymore.
When fighting this person, his first priority would be to kill him.
Everything else can be ignored.
But Roy responded calmly to Im's attack.
He didn't move, but simply raised both hands as well.
Countless spatial portals materialized in his hands, and then from within them, vast ocean waters began to flow out.
Exactly the same.
As the countless seawater flowed out, they constantly changed, transforming into a massive barrier that could shelter Roy and all his allies behind him.
The next moment, the barrier clashed with the giant sword.
"Boom!"
As a result, the very foundation of the red earth continent seemed to be shattered.
"Ahhhhh!"
Amidst the howls, Mary Geoise, along with the Celestial Dragons within it, plummeted to the ground in an instant.
These so-called world aristocrats probably never imagined that they—who always prided themselves on their nobility and arrogance—would ever have such a profound experience.
In the end, it vanished forever in the midst of a battle between two beings, disappearing like an insect almost crushed by the aftershocks of the fight.
Neither of them showed any clear hostility towards them.
In the battle against the "gods," these so-called descendants of gods were no better than insects.
And clearly, nobody cared about them at that moment.
Because the clash between Lloyd and Im is still ongoing.
Heaven and earth, sea and land, wind and fire, thunder and rain and snow—all things in the world seem to have become toys that they can knead and manipulate at will.
Each of their clashes unleashed waves thousands or even tens of thousands of meters high, seemingly capable of capsizing sky islands and submerging the world.
Every clash between them produces a terrifying spectacle that can shake the entire world.
During the battle, the enormous tree that existed deep within the Red Line Continent and was hidden there by Im began to gradually appear.
The liberated warriors led their army beneath the giant tree, determined to overthrow the rule of the gods.
Everything seemed to corroborate that ancient myth.
All of that clearly tells the world.
This battle is, in the truest sense, a... battle of gods.
But it was precisely during this battle of the gods that Im's expression seemed to grow increasingly sinister.
Clearly, he hadn't anticipated this either.
On his home turf, under the influence of the power of the Pillars of Creation, Roy was actually able to reach a point where they were evenly matched.
"Even if we steal the echoes of the last world, the crown that Mu gave to David, and those three tree seeds... it shouldn't be enough."
Im almost saw the source of Lloyd's ability to reach such a position, but he didn't understand it.
Where did Roy's immense bloodline factor energy come from, and his ability to manipulate bloodline factor energy at will, just like him, and even more subtly and perfectly than him?
Im could even clearly sense that the abilities and desires used by Iroi were without flaws, unlike his power which would be hated by the world.
Im even had to admit it.
Roy is a more perfect god than him.
but...
That's all!
With another sword strike, he shattered the wind and thunder beast summoned by Roy, and the silhouette of the abyss behind Im seemed to emit a sharp mocking laugh along with his words.
"God is immortal, Lord of the Stars."
He still seemed to be used to referring to Roy as "Star Lord".
"You and Mu are both gods who have mastered the power of a world. You should know very well that Mu's power is spreading throughout this world at all times, and Mu's will and power will forever reside in this world."
"You can fight against Mu, but you can't kill Mu, much less completely overthrow Mu's rule."
"Give up, let's sit down and talk. Mu can share this world with you and your squires."
"Mu can make you a new god, and allow your chosen one to ascend to a new holy land and become the new king of the world."
His words were cold, as if he were stating a fact.
That is indeed a fact he acknowledged.
Even if he was unwilling, he had to admit that Roy was already a new god who was no less than him.
However, at the same time, Im also believed that...
Both he and Roy possess the desire for a world, a status sufficient to bear everything, and an almost limitless source of bloodline factors. With all three gathered together, they are invincible.
For example, Im.
Eight hundred years of rule have left deep marks and constraints on the world.
Even though his body and power were completely annihilated, the constraints he left behind still hold sway over the desires of the people of this world.
The human heart is an abyss.
Just like his birth, as long as the mortals of this world are still thinking, the abyss will be reborn from their negative emotions and perceptions, and instantly ascend to godhood again.
Neither of them can completely eliminate the other.
Under these circumstances, Im chose to back down.
He could acknowledge Roy's status as a god, and since the Celestial Dragons are almost extinct now, he could form a joint government with Roy and even grant Roy the authority to choose new Celestial Dragons.
In Im's view, this was clearly a huge concession.
but...
"Sit down and talk? A united government? To rule the world?"
Roy's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly drowned out all other sounds.
"Sorry, I'm not really interested in that kind of thing."
"I just want to kill you, that's all."
While they were talking.
"And—who told you that you and I both control the world?"
He slowly raised his hand again.
"Buzz!"
Awe-inspiring power and countless wishes converged once more in his hands.
"Fool!"
Upon hearing this, Im uttered a low growl: "Disagreement won't change anything, you and Mu are both..."
He simply believed that Roy was merely clinging to his insignificant human attachments and unwilling to acknowledge the truth.
But, just the next moment...
"!!!"
Im's expression changed.
"This...is impossible!"
For the first time in a true sense, the pitch-black flames burning on his body and the abyss behind him, formed from boundless darkness and gloomy desires, emitted incomprehensible screams.
Because in that instant, he felt that one of the anchors that rooted him in this world... the desires of all living beings that he constantly absorbed, were undergoing some kind of change.
Their gatherings are decreasing dramatically, and they are even... hostile towards Im.
"What...what did you do!?"
Im's eyes widened.
"It's what I've been doing all along."
Roy calmly replied, "I gave all living beings in this world a choice—but you...you are too arrogant, Im."
Upon hearing this, Im instantly recalled the time not long ago in Marineford when the twelve constellations, through Dragon's hand, revealed the truth of history to the world.
He was naturally angry at the time, but he didn't care too much.
after all...
"Impossible... Even if everyone knew the truth about the world, even if they all wanted to rebel against Mu, Mu's power had already penetrated into everything in this world. Even if they harbored rebellious intentions, their wishes would be absorbed by Mu..."
He couldn't understand it.
Yes.
During his eight hundred years of world domination, he erased history and repeatedly raised sea levels.
The sea is his symbol—but in today's world, the sea has almost submerged everything.
That means that Im's control over all living beings in this world has already reached its limit.
Even if people rebel against Im, even if another Joy Boy leads them in rebellion, their power of desire will still be absorbed by Im. This is why, for a long time, Im has never truly feared Joy Boy, despite his loathing and apprehension.
He was confident that he could not be destroyed.
But now, this absolute control has been shaken.
"What...what have you done?! Star Lord!"
And this was accompanied by Im's terrified and angry growl.
At this moment, in various parts of the world unknown to him.
"Buzz!"
Within each kingdom and city, boundless starlight spreads.
And in the desert of Alabasta.
The countless stars almost replaced the colors of the desert, making the country incredibly dreamlike.
"Father, this is what the astrologers were talking about..."
At that moment, Vivi was looking at the object in her hand that was radiating starlight.
It was a small, illusory figure.
Although it is very small, if you look closely, you will find that the figure is exactly the same as Roy's.
"Yes, a product of the Star Lord's power—the [Star God] who brought destruction to the Abyss and protected all living beings."
Beside Vivi, Cobra responded with a smile.
"That's why we didn't choose to join the war..."
Vivi looked at the little figure in her hand and said softly.
"No, we've joined the war—Vivi."
Cobra, however, spoke calmly.
"Moreover, due to the past glory of our ancestor Queen Lily, the Twelve Stars have placed great trust in us."
"They entrusted us with one of the most important, most crucial parts of this war."
As he spoke, he turned to look at the rising starlight that illuminated the entire nation.
Or perhaps, he was looking at... the whole world.
Vivi naturally understood her father's meaning.
Just as mentioned before, before this war fully began.
Not long ago, the sea experienced a brief period of turmoil.
The kingdom was overthrown, and the nobles gathered together, some surrendering and others doing so.
But it is clear that the twelve zodiac signs would not place any trust in these nobles and kings.
The reason they haven't been completely wiped out yet is simply to ensure temporary stability in various countries around the world.
Alabasta played a crucial role in this temporary peace in the world.
As one of the original twenty nations and now a superpower on the high seas, Alabasta's national strength and status are enough to make it the backbone of the various kingdoms in this situation.
They also actively mobilized resources, dispatching merchant ships and think tanks to various kingdoms to assist in management and mediation.
At the same time, they also wanted to take this opportunity to send something to each kingdom without affecting the stability of the kingdom, without provoking the bottom line of all the kings and nobles, and without inciting war or chaos.
"Those are the gods of the stars."
Or rather...
【Sliced Fruit - Infinite Slices】
Star-Star Fruit
[It can split into countless small self-clones]
These tiny Roys are the embodiment of the power of the most crucial fruit slice Roy has grown to this point.
Each of them was an avatar containing a tiny fraction of Roy's power.
Their only commonality is that, as Roy Amos, they can both harness the power of the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia.
so...
[Wish, Twisted, Abyss Discovered]
Is it absorbed?
"yes.
At this moment, such inquiries exist in almost every corner of the world.
That was also the source of Im's anger at that moment.
Yes.
The Fruit Encyclopedia is Roy's cheat code, a power that surpasses everything in this world.
It is even far higher than the abyss, a fact that Roy had long been certain of—after all, back in Dressrosa, he had forcibly devoured some of Im's power through the Fruit Encyclopedia, and even severed the power of the God Knights from returning to Im's embrace.
In other words.
Even though the entire world is bound by Im, everyone's desires will be subconsciously twisted by the power of the abyss and become Im's power.
But as long as Roy is nearby, and as long as the power of the Fruit Encyclopedia is activated.
Then this wish will naturally be absorbed by the Fruit Encyclopedia.
Meanwhile, these miniature slices of Roy's clones had already been sent by Alabasta to every corner of the world.
"Do you still want to be a slave?"
"Do you want to continue being deprived of your freedom?"
"Do you still want to experience pain?"
"If you don't want to."
"If you want freedom, you want ease, you want happiness, you want to rebel... then come on!"
"Those who give the correct answer will be protected by the Star God!"
In other words...
The desires that arose in every corner of this world can no longer return to Im's embrace.
"This is the revenge of all living beings in this world against you, Im."
Above the Red Line, Roy stood at the center of the sky and the sea.
Feeling the convergence of countless desires within his body, and sensing the gradual weakening of Im's power before him.
His voice was calm, yet resounding.
Right now...
"Boom!"
Lightning struck vertically from the sky, as if dividing the sky and the sea, or perhaps... dividing the new world from the old world.
"Listen to this, Im."
Roy raised his hand.
"They have all stood up—those who refuse to be slaves."
"And you..."
As they spoke, Im, who had already panicked, finally changed color: "Wait, Im..."
But clearly, Roy had no interest in listening to nonsense.
He simply waved his hand away.
Like a judge on the dock, delivering the final verdict.
"Your eternity ends here."
