142: The Creation Ship Spirit 'Im', the Diamond-level Legion—The Four Seas Fleet!

Crack—

Bang!!!

The Titan Giant God's figure, majestic like a mountain, stood between the sea and the sky. Behind him, the phantom of the demon god Typhon unleashed a hurricane of lightning and fire!

It raged across the sea, devouring everything in its path!

"Lord Im!"

The Five Elders, who had rushed over, had their eyes wide with fury.

They saw

Im standing on the noah's ark's deck, and in front of him, the lightning and fire hurricane was approaching at an alarming speed!

A crisis of life and death!

This was an Epic Rank creature's full-power attack!

Im's scalp tingled as he frantically searched, trying to find a way to control the noah's ark.

One second,

Two seconds... Time was flowing by at an alarming rate.

Between heaven and earth, it seemed as if everything had stilled; everyone watched this unprecedented catastrophe.

Suddenly,

Dong—

A leisurely bell rang out.

It was as if a god from the heavens had rung the bell of peace. Immediately after, a dazzling light, green vines intertwining...

Whether it was the Four Seas Fleet or the Pirate Alliance,

The ability users among them

all felt their devil fruit abilities within them seemed to be rioting, urgently wanting to leave their bodies.

It was like a child wandering outside seeing its mother... The next moment,

they understood why.

A magnificent aura surged forth, starting from Ohara, the tree of omniscience shot up from the ground, traversing tens of thousands of miles, finally arriving on the battlefield at this moment!

Its dense canopy, with devil fruit swaying... Seeing the arrival of the tree of omniscience, the Titan Giant God was visibly stunned for a moment. Then, the two seemed to engage in some kind of communication.

As it evolved,

the Titan Giant God exhaled, and the lightning and fire storm that was about to engulf Im extinguished.

Im's life was saved,

but he still didn't dare to breathe deeply, only because the Titan Giant God was still quietly staring at him.

This gaze was hard to describe.

If he had to describe it... it was somewhat similar to how he used to look at Sea Kings trapped in a pit, fighting a desperate battle.

It was the same pity... This was the look given to creatures destined to die.

Bang—

The next moment,

the Titan Giant God and the tree of omniscience both vanished, teleported away by a mysterious and unfathomable power.

Far away from this evolving civilization.

With the disappearance of the two Epic Rank foreign lives, the final chapter of the pirate civilization finally unfolded as scheduled... [Under your command, the Titan Giant God and the tree of omniscience ceased interfering with this civilization, leaving everything to their own choices.]

[At the same time.]

[Im, who obtained the noah's ark, finally revealed his true identity.]

[Shocking!]

[The Shadow King who ruled the world for hundreds of years was actually from the most lowly Merfolk Clan?]

[In full view of everyone, Im spread his arms, as if embracing the glory of the future, and roared loudly at everyone: 'I am the King of Atlantis, master of the three ancient weapons! Today, having obtained the God-Slaying Relic, whoever wishes to slay gods with me, step forward!']

[Almost as soon as his voice fell.]

[The Merfolk Clan made their choice. Except for a small group of royal guards controlled by the Merfolk Princess, the vast majority of merfolk chose to stand with Im.]

[As for the Sea Kings.]

[With the hidden function of the Sea King Crown, Im could easily control these creatures stripped of their intelligence!]

[In an instant.]

[One of the three major forces chose to surrender. Only the human Four Seas Fleet and Pirate Alliance remained silent, staring intently at the figure in front, making a difficult choice in their hearts.]

[Surrendering meant confronting a god.]

[Not surrendering meant facing the threat of Im, this mysterious king.]

[Whichever they chose, it seemed like a thankless task...]

[Perhaps the gods knew their predicament and made the decision for them.]

[At the end of the horizon, where the sun set, against a backdrop of a fiery red sunset, the Straw Hat Pirates, who had been missing for a year, returned!]

[With the guidance of the tree of omniscience, the Straw Hat Pirates had successfully reached the Four Emperors level!]

[At the same time.]

[With Luffy's awakening of the Sun God Nika form, he himself officially broke through to the Diamond Rank!]

[At this moment, he was the undisputed pirate king! Even if he hadn't reached Raftel, no one would dare to question it in the slightest!]

[At the same time.]

[He was also the only one present who could rival Im!]

"Confronting a god, this is a foolish decision."

[A cold snort came from one of the former Seven Warlords, Jinbe the Knight of the Sea! He had glimpsed the entire truth of the past from the tree of omniscience, and disdained the ambitious emperor!]

[God bestowed everything on the earth to them. From then on, the world would develop by the races themselves...]

[This was already sufficient grace.]

[The former Atlantis Empire also developed under such circumstances. However, Im acted against the natural order; his so-called revenge for the race was nothing more than a grand excuse!]

[His true goal had always been to seize the position of a god!]

[He wanted to become a god from a human!]

[Im's face darkened, but he said nothing. At the same time, with the arrival of the Straw Hat Pirates, Shanks the Red-Haired, one of the Four Emperors, stepped forward, actively becoming a mediator.]

[He said in a deep voice, 'This is no longer a conflict between pirates and the navy; this is a war between humans and merfolk!']

"The racial wars of the past are still vivid in memory. Everyone, do you really want to be etched onto the pillar of shame of your race?!"

Bang—

[Several sharp sword qi lashed out, red hair flowing. Shanks's voice suddenly rose, 'Now is the time for humanity to unite once more.']

"With Luffy as commander, let's declare war on Im!"

"Just... give me some face."

[The Face-Face Fruit user was terrifyingly powerful. Under Red-Hair's words, even Akainu, who detested pirates, had to grudgingly accept it.]

The immense power of the pirate civilization began to reorganize, finally forming a brand new extraordinary legion.

[Extraordinary Legion — Four Seas Fleet, formed!]

In terms of strength,

this extraordinary legion was infinitely close to the Diamond Rank, but ultimately lacked sufficient foundation to become a Diamond Rank legion.

Even so,

the power of this legion was terrifying. An ordinary Diamond Rank creature standing in front of it would be like a praying mantis in front of a train.

It would be torn to shreds by this terrifying power in an instant!

At the same time,

with the establishment of the Four Seas Fleet, on the other side, Im finally found the core of the noah's ark.

"Needs energy?"

Looking at the empty power furnace in front of him, Im frowned. Then, without a second's hesitation, he directly pushed the Five Elders beside him into it.

"Lord Im, you..." The Five Elders were stunned.

"Everything you have comes from my gift. Now, it is time for you to contribute."

Im's expression remained unchanged as he spoke faintly. The Five Elders were engulfed by flames in despair, turning into pale ashes... But it wasn't enough!

Five Gold Rank powerhouses only increased the energy bar by less than 1%.

And according to his observation,

at least 10% energy was needed to make the noah's ark move. So, Im turned his gaze to his kin behind him... Soon after,

the deck of the noah's ark was stained with blood, littered with corpses. The bodies of merfolk and Sea Kings were piled into high mountains.

And in front of them,

Im, with cold eyes, continuously threw the corpses into the noah's ark's power furnace.

This scene,

how similar was it to the scene in the Leviathan world of old? Im was not at all for some great racial cause; he simply wanted to become a god.

"I am the King of Atlantis, who has ruled the land and sea for thousands of years! And as the final piece of the great empire's puzzle, the sky should also be my territory!"

"I am the true god!"

Im's tone was already somewhat deranged. The moment all the corpses were thrown into the power furnace, the energy bar finally reached 10%.

Then,

Im spread his arms, laughing wildly, preparing to welcome his rebirth!

He would become a god!

... [Sea Calendar 1514, November 27, 19:31!]

[Evening time!]

[The King of Atlantis, having annihilated the Merfolk and Sea Kings, awakened the noah's ark, and in the terrified eyes of the crowd, began his path to godhood!]

[Dazzling light converged, enveloping his entire being...]

[S-rank card 'Genetic Manipulation' activated!]

[Im's aura soared like a rocket, quickly reaching the peak, close to Diamond Rank!]

[Then, with a soft sound, as if breaking through a certain membrane within his body.]

[Im transformed into an Epic Rank creature!]

[At the same time.]

[Under the sea, the sea god fragment, the legendary Great Treasure, stored there by pirate king Roger, appeared!]

[It merged with Im on the noah's ark.]

[Thus.]

[noah's ark, Im, sea god fragment, Genetic Manipulation... Four powers converged, and a world-ending fluctuation swept forth. The originally ecstatic Im suddenly felt a shocking change in his body!]

[Immediately after.]

[All his past memories returned. In Im's terrified eyes, his flesh and soul completely dissolved!]

[Then, under the influence of the sea god fragment, the remaining soul fragments merged, condensing into a figure wearing a white cloak, whose appearance could not be clearly seen...]

[Ship Spirit of Creation — Im, condensed!]

[The ship spirit merged. Im became one with the noah's ark. Under the influence of Genetic Manipulation, the noah's ark, having gained a 'soul,' began to change its material. Its original material began to acquire a special biological cell...]

[The entire ship, therefore, transformed into a semi-extraordinary, semi-biological existence!]

This was not over yet.

A series of prompts sounded in Su Bai's mind.

Immediately after,

Origin Realm—

Countless dazzling feathers fell from the sky, as if the heavens had opened, and a magnificent deity cast a glance upon the dust.

Luffy's Four Seas Fleet converged with the newly born noah's ark!

Thus,

it completely broke through the Gold Rank limit and entered the Diamond Rank!

A brand new extraordinary legion was born.

[Diamond Rank Legion — Four Seas Fleet, born!]
