At the beginning of the game, the gods tricked Kaido into drinking the blood of evil energy

Claude, Barrett, Tifa, and Red XIII had never expected to defeat this powerful blue giant.

Rhodes actually brought Alice on a giant creature that descended from the sky.

"Alice and Mr. Rhodes, why did you fall from the sky, and what is this big thing?" Tifa asked curiously, looking at the majestic blue dragon in front of her.

But Alice looked a little strange! She walked a little unsteadily, and even seemed to be in an awkward position.

And why is Alice's face so rosy? It looks as if she has been moisturized by something.

Tifa's sixth sense as a woman made her realize that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

“Good, good, you fought well. I didn’t expect you could defeat this guy in such a short time.

But I'm still a little dissatisfied. I originally wanted Claude to fight him one-on-one." Rhode clapped his hands and said.

At the same time, the huge dragon in the sky turned into a ball of white smoke, and then turned back into a leaf and was collected by Rhodes. The Father-in-law brand mount had to be put away.

Seeing the huge dragon suddenly turn into green leaves, the faces of the three people and the dog suddenly turned gloomy.

"Mr. Rod, you and Alice were hiding in the sky and secretly watching us fight just now, right? And this mysterious blue giant was created by you, right?" Tifa pouted and said angrily.

But why does she look so cute? Oh! She is indeed a goddess of the second dimension! She is such a cute little girl that I feel sorry for her!
"Are you kidding me? We almost died in the battle just now! There were several dangerous situations." Barrett raised the giant machine gun arm in his hand and spoke.

The big red dog Chihong Thirteen at the side also showed a dissatisfied look.

"Claude, I do this all for you! Don't you understand my good intentions?" Rhodes said with his arms folded across his chest.

"Mr. Rhodes! What do you mean? You created this blue giant specifically to test me. You wanted me to get familiar with my current power, right?" Claude asked after thinking for a moment.

"That's right, Claude. I gave you great power and placed the responsibility of protecting this planet on your shoulders.

The mission to defeat Sephiroth has been entrusted to you, so you can't let your guard down! Look at what you've been doing?
Just defeat some ordinary monsters, help deliver letters, run errands, and catch chocobos.

How can these things improve your strength? So I arranged a trial for you." Rhodes said.

"Hey! We have done so many mercenary tasks for the purpose of completing them. We will be paid after each task is completed.

Otherwise, what will we eat and drink along the way? We have to find a way to make money. "Tifa said.

Part of the money she and Claude and others worked hard to earn was used to cover their food and accommodation along the way.

Another part is used to purchase some weapons, other equipment, magic crystals, and even magic skill books.

Although these are just gadgets, they can also improve Claude's combat effectiveness.

Moreover, they will do some punitive missions to defeat some monsters that are causing trouble. How could they be doing nothing?
"This battle intensity is too low. You should be able to sense it, Claude! Fighting against such an opponent, you won't improve at all."

"Yeah! I feel very powerful now. During the battle, I can open the first and second doors at any time.

I can also use the energy of anger, and sometimes I don't even need to use the power of the Nine-Tailed Fox." Claude waved the sword of destruction in his hand and spoke.

This power is definitely not inferior to Jenova, and may even be stronger. With this power, I will definitely be able to defeat Sephiroth in the future.

"Claude! Why are you speaking for others?" Tifa puffed her cheeks and said with dissatisfaction.

"I'm just telling the truth. Fighting against such a strong opponent is indeed beneficial to me." Claude said indifferently.

As a top-notch straight man, Claude has no idea how to please girls, but Tifa just likes this kind of Claude. There's nothing she can do about it, because he's so handsome!
"That's right, Claude. I have no objection to you completing those ordinary small tasks. After all, you can earn some travel expenses.

We can also eliminate some monsters that are causing trouble to one side, which is a very correct thing to do, but we must not neglect improving our strength.

So I decided to arrange a boss battle for Claude every day. You all need to fight a monster I created.

Don't worry! Although these monsters look alive, they are all fake lives made of these leaves. You don't have to worry at all. Just go all out." Rhodes took out a large piece of green leaves and said.

There were Death Knight Whitebeard, Death Knight Red Earl, Charlotte Linlin in vampire form, evil version of Kaido, and even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama. In addition, there were also the giant Abyss Lord from the Warcraft universe, the Black Dragon cousin, and the Demon Hunter Illidan. Now, Rhode could get as many of these transformed leaves as he wanted, without any fear of waste.

"Mr. Rhodes, are these all those monsters?"

"These leaves are called transformation leaves. They are made using a special method. As long as you inject power into them, you can make the characters or monsters inside come alive.

From now on, after you complete the mercenary mission every day, you will need to work together to defeat such a monster.

Of course, if you find it troublesome, you can leave it to Claude alone, after all, he is the main force against Sephiroth." Rhodes said as he placed a handful of transformation leaves in front of Claude.

"Don't underestimate us, Mr. Rhodes. We will cooperate with Claude to defeat the opponent!"

"How can we let the blond fight alone? We also have a role to play in defeating that Sephiroth guy."

"It seems that you are full of energy, so continue your adventure! I will arrange a wonderful boss battle for you every day to hone your combat skills." After Rhodes finished speaking, he waved to a few people, then called Alice to ride on the old father-in-law version of the dragon and left directly.

"Can this really hone our fighting skills? I always feel like Mr. Rhodes is playing tricks on us." Barrett folded his arms across his chest and spoke.

"My fighting ability has indeed improved. I had a different feeling when fighting that blue giant." Claude said, clenching his fist.

Fighting is the best way to improve your strength. Now that I have suddenly gained powerful strength, I really need to fight one battle after another to fully master this power.

"Okay! Let's go! We're going to the next place." Tifa patted Claude's shoulder and said.

For the next whole month, everyone spent a happy yet difficult time together.

During this period, a little girl named Yuffie joined the team and became new teammates with Claude and others. Together they adventured in this legendary land and went to the Juno area.

However, Rod and Alice did not participate in the subsequent journey of Cloud and others, including the meeting with the president of Shinra, and a warrior named Roche who was transformed by Hojo, all of which were left to Cloud to defeat alone. (I will not write about the daily plot of Final Fantasy VII, otherwise you will say that my handwriting is not good)

Claude's strength is growing rapidly. Now in normal combat status, he can easily open the third gate of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu, and use the powerful Nine-Tails Chakra attached to his destructive sword to fight.

You can also skillfully use various warrior skills, such as charge, cleave, smash, and kill.

However, in recent times, a strange black creature has appeared in large numbers and has been attacking Rhodes continuously. This creature is none other than Faith.

"Mr. Rhodes, look, these are Faith. They are the guardians of fate. You have drastically changed the fate of Claude and others. Now they are pestering you." Alice sat next to Rhodes and said with a smile.

During this time, these strange black creatures attacked Rhodes frantically, but their strength was completely not enough in front of Rhodes, and the dark green energy used by Rhodes.

Alice was greatly amazed by it. It was a force with extremely strong destructive power. Once these black flying threads touched anything, they would be instantly reduced to ashes.

"Is this all the courage Sephiroth has? He only sent some cannon fodder troops to deal with me and didn't dare to show up in front of me at all!" Rhodes said.

The black Fes in the sky suddenly began to stir, and soon a group of Fes gathered together, creating a black vortex. A silver-haired man in a white uniform and holding an extra-long sword appeared in front of Rhodes.

"It's you who is destroying destiny, right? You even eliminated the power of Jenova's mother from my brother, Claude's body." Sephiroth shook the super-long sword in his hand and spoke.

"That's right! It's me who did it. So what? White-hair, do you want to fight me?" Rhodes crossed his arms and said nonchalantly.

Alice hid aside, raised her little fist excitedly and shouted non-stop.

"Come on, come on! Beat him hard, Rod!"

“Hmph! Looks like I need to personally clean up the things outside of this world’s destiny.

Your existence threatens my plan, so get out of here!"

Sephiroth rushed towards Rhodes with the long sword Masamune in hand.

"Come on! Let me beat you up." (End of this chapter)
