Chapter 411: I've Wanted to Punch You for a Long Time, You Piece of Trash
Everything happened extremely fast.
In just an instant, those eighteen Initial Kings who were originally guarding Imu were attacked one after another before they even had time to react.
Either they were banished to other dimensions, or they were torn apart by giant gods.
In short, they almost entirely vanished without a trace before they could even put up any effective resistance.
This scene made Sengoku, who was already breathing out more than he was breathing in on the execution platform, stare blankly. And in Imu's eyes, a clear sharpness and disgust were revealed.
"It's not a Devil Fruit, that guy Star Lord..."
He could smell that guy's aura from the abilities of The Zodiac.
Those were completely not His abilities, but creations belonging uniquely to the Star Lord's power.
However, Imu gritted His teeth at this time, and while trembling all over with anger, He still retained hope.
Because although the Abyssal Magic Circle was broken, and His guardians were rapidly delayed or defeated, at least for the time being no one had attacked Him yet, and...
"As My contractors in the past, as the feudal lords enfeoffed by Davy, they have the highest resurrection authority in the Ancient Coffin. They don't even need biological bodies, just the blood of life is enough to resurrect."
"And this battlefield... is covered in blood."
While Imu murmured in His heart.
Above the sky, that massive Ancient Coffin also opened once again at this moment.
And just as expected.
Just as Imu thought—from within the Ancient Coffin, the figures of the Initial Kings who were killed just now had already reappeared.
At the same time, some blood on the ground of the battlefield also flew up amidst the exclamations of the people, beginning to gather and reassemble.
They clearly intended to "resurrect" through the method Imu mentioned.
But right at this time.
"I've found that coffin displeasing to the eye for a long time."
"You old antiques, just stop crawling out of the coffin to be an eyesore."
A cold, mocking voice resounded across the battlefield.
The next moment, Imu shockingly saw.
Above the sky, at the top of the massive Aster.
The figure of "Pig" was standing on the starry dome of the Aster.
He slowly raised his hand, grabbing towards the surroundings.
Thus, from the position covered by his hands.
The massive hull structure of the Aster actually began to deform.
That bow radiating starlight opened up like a living creature.
From behind the Aster, the magnificent "Courtyard of Stars" also slowly manifested an illusion.
The next moment, from within the Courtyard of Stars, a massive battleship was slowly constructed from starlight.
Thus, Imu's expression instantly changed drastically.
Of course He recognized that battleship—that was "Pluton"!
But it was different from before in Wano Country.
The massive structure of "Pluton" right now not only seemed to have become even more massive, its entirety also seemed to be constructed from starlight, appearing somewhat illusory.
The aura of charging within it was still intense, but... that massive "main cannon" gradually grew to a suffocating size amidst the gathering of circulating starlight.
It slowly, guided by the waving of Pig's hands, aimed at that massive... Ancient Coffin.
[Artisan God Fruit]
[Fruit of the Stars]
[The ability user can freely manipulate any material to manufacture any "weapon" or "tool" type item, and can endow the items with special abilities and attributes through Lineage Factor Source Energy to massively enhance their power and effect.]
[The ability user can also merge with the manufactured items, granting themselves powerful combat capability.]
"Ancient Coffin, a creation of the original 'People of the Moon'... ancient and sturdy to the point of being almost indestructible."
And right now, beneath Pig's mask, a laugh seemed to sound: "What a ridiculous excuse."
"If it's truly 'indestructible', how could the People of the Moon fall from their thrones?"
"Pluton Main Cannon—Hades, using the wish and Lineage Factor Source Energy of the Courtyard of Stars as 'energy'."
"Fire... at it!"
BOOM!
As his words fell.
A booming sound exploded.
A torrent of energy that couldn't be described with words, like the stars exploding at the same time, tore through space the next moment.
Wherever it passed, even the light was distorted by it.
The next moment, that massive torrent strikingly hit the massive outer coffin suspended in the sky, connecting the abyss and the dead!
Thus...
VMMM!
There was no violent explosion sound.
Within Imu's instantly widened eyes, that ancient technology of the People of the Moon silently shattered and disintegrated.
Its fragments didn't even manage to fall, but rather, like snowflakes illuminated by the morning sun, melted and dissipated at the same time they shattered.
"!!!"
And at this moment, the color of terror was also revealed in Imu's expression for the first time.
His expression also became gloomy to the extreme.
The destruction of the Ancient Coffin meant His guards could no longer "return".
He had been pushed into a desperate situation.
However, the only thing to rejoice about was...
"Twelve... all of them have made their moves, and Mu's absorption is about to be completed."
He looked at The Zodiac who had all made their moves—although several of them would quickly free up their hands to attack Him.
However, His absorption of the "Nika Fruit's" power was already at its final moment.
This brief "gap" was already a sufficient window period for Him.
"Just casually driving some power for defense, as long as I can block one strike... delaying for a moment is enough!"
And as long as He could retrieve all His "freedom", then... even these twelve monsters possessing the Star Lord's power, He could kill them!
But, exactly at this instant.
He discovered that those Zodiacs did not immediately attack Him as He expected.
Or to be more precise...
Right now, the one attacking Him... was someone else!
"This old man can't bear it anymore!"
"Sengoku, now that you've been taken down by Him too, you won't stop this old man anymore, right!"
Above Imu's head, that aged yet still robust figure had already soared high.
That white-haired figure was a Marine, and also a "Hero".
But right now, flying in the sky, he looked at the scene below.
Warriors whose bodies were occupied by ghosts who should have been dead, prisoners privately modified like monsters, ugly and despicable methods, and the ideology of "destroying everything, and then ruling everything" spoken by the initial twenty Kings just now.
And also his son who fought to uphold his ideals, and his almost dying grandson.
"Honestly, this old man really made a foolish choice!"
"It should have been like this long ago—ever since God's Valley thirty years ago, this old man has wanted to punch you, you... piece of trash—"
Garp's eyes were almost crimson, he roared lowly.
That Conqueror's Haki, originally at the very pinnacle of the sea, at this moment... also instantly expanded to an almost unprecedented degree.
Rumble!
Red-black Conqueror's Haki lightning descended from the sky almost like a thunderstorm.
Monkey D. Garp, finally made his choice!
"Ah... I won't stop you anymore."
And right now, Sengoku, lying on the ground, also smiled bitterly.
Clearly, he had similarly realized the choice he should make.
"Go, Garp!"
"Luffy, wait for Grandpa to save you—Galaxy Impact!"
Amidst the loud roar... Garp's fist had already fallen!
