Marvel: Starting with the Glint-Glint Fruit.

But Matthew also knew that this must have been intentional on the part of that thing.

Matthew turned his gaze and swept it across the vast expanse of dust ahead, ignoring the various emotions swirling around him from behind.

As the wind blew, Jennifer's graceful figure emerged from the dust and landed less than thirty meters in front of Matthew.

However, she seemed slightly frightened at this moment.

Because of Matthew's lightning-fast kick, her neck twisted to the extreme, and her delicate face was sunken in, making her look extremely strange and terrifying.

However, thanks to its vigorous vitality and self-healing ability, a series of ear-piercing sounds of bones grinding together rang out.

Her twisted neck gradually recovered, and her sunken face, like an inflated balloon, slowly returned to its original beautiful appearance.

Jennifer tilted her head, her beautiful eyes reflecting Matthew's image.

Her delicate face revealed a look of infatuation.

Its nose twitched slightly as it sniffed, as if it had caught a fragrance: "Flesh and blood brimming with vitality, a powerful and unique soul, you smell so good."

Then, as if smelling something repulsive, she frowned.

"And there's an unpleasant smell about it."

She was suddenly caught in a dilemma. To her, the boy in front of her was like a food that smelled both delicious and stinky—she wanted to eat it, but eating it might give her diarrhea.

There was a brief silence, and the atmosphere became tense and stern, with a hint of eeriness.

Matthew stares directly at the beautiful and fiery woman before him, and through his Observation Haki, he can clearly sense her greed and inner turmoil.

Of course, there is also evil and darkness.

"Are you a demon?"

Matthew spoke first, breaking the silence.

The people behind him didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

"Do you really want to know me?"

Jennifer smiled charmingly, her eyes sparkling with a captivating allure that revealed her tender and seductive nature.

Anyone unaware of her true nature would surely be captivated by her allure, but everyone present knew that she was nothing more than a ruthless, man-eating demon.

Matthew's expression remained unchanged, completely unaffected. He used his Observation Haki to its fullest extent, sensing the situation of the woman in front of him.

"You... devoured this woman's soul?"

Matthew's lips curled into a smile.

"No, we've simply become one. She is me, and I am her," Jennifer said, seemingly in a good mood.

Because a certain ritual failed, she appeared in the form of a curse, and amplified some of the original owner's desires.

As this woman's desires are amplified to an infinite degree, desire becomes a bridge, allowing her soul to completely occupy this body.

As for Jennifer's original soul in this body, it was naturally devoured by her.

To some extent, what she said about becoming one is not untrue.

"That's good."

"What?" Jennifer asked, puzzled.

"At least let me skip the troublesome steps." Matthew's dark brown pupils were stained red with blood, and an overwhelming aura suddenly erupted from him.

Noisy!Noisy!Noisy!

Streaks of black and red lightning suddenly exploded out of thin air, unleashing a raging, overwhelming aura that swept across the entire arena.

A surge of black and red lightning exploded, blasting craters into the ground and surrounding buildings.

Boom! Boom!

This also triggered the landmines and grenades in the trap, causing an explosion and flash of light that instantly engulfed the area.

In the firelight, Matthew looked like a god descended to earth.

Jennifer's originally charming face suddenly changed, and a surging and domineering aura violently impacted her soul.

It even made her feel that her soul had been shaken, and her body seemed to be out of her control.

"you!!"

Jennifer couldn't believe that such a terrifying power came from a human.

Before she could finish her surprise, Matthew's figure suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of her in the blink of an eye.

The speed was so fast that she didn't have time to react. No, it wasn't that she didn't have time to react, but rather that the overwhelming aura had violently impacted her soul, causing her to become sluggish.

The figure created by the black lightning made Matthew look like a demon descending, making him appear even more terrifying.

A fist wreathed in black and red lightning, gleaming with a metallic black luster, gradually enlarged before her eyes.

The terrifying punch seemed to shatter the air, slamming heavily into her cheek.

boom!

This powerful downward punch slammed Jennifer to the ground.

The earth cracked, and the sound of explosions echoed through the sky. Jennifer was slammed into the ground, and countless cracks spread like a spider web. Endless black and red lightning also exploded in the crater.

The entire town trembled and shook from that punch, and a terrifying shockwave swept in all directions.

The surrounding buildings were impacted, and all the glass was shattered and fell. People behind them could not withstand the impact and were thrown into the air, falling to the ground. Many people even crashed into the walls.

The screams seemed to add a dangerous element to this battle that was not of mortal origin.

This seems to suggest that ordinary people are not even qualified to watch a battle of this level.

Jennifer, who was slammed into the dented ground by the powerful force, felt only a sharp pain, a physical pain.

However, Jennifer didn't care at all, because this kind of physical pain was nothing to a demon.

Even this injury wasn't really an injury; what truly surprised her was that this level of power came from a human.

Moreover, that strange power, that bizarre power wreathed in black and red lightning, was something I had never seen before.

Before Jennifer could think, Matthew grabbed her by the neck and lifted her out of the crater.

Noisy!Noisy!Noisy!

His jet-black right hand, crackling with black and red lightning, gripped Jennifer's long, fair neck tightly, the ferocious force seemingly about to crush it.

However, an evil aura emerged from Jennifer's body, blocking Matthew's right hand from exerting force.

"You can't kill me, no one can kill me, all your efforts are in vain."

Jennifer raised her thin eyebrows, looking smug.

Demons are very special life forms. In the human world, without extremely powerful forces, it is impossible to destroy a demon unless a specific ritual is performed on the demon itself, or the demon's true name is known, in order to expel or even kill it.

This is a rule.

Matthew possesses great power, but it's not enough to kill a demon.

Even if this body is destroyed, her soul cannot be destroyed.

"Then let's give it a try."

Matthew's calm voice fell, and then he suddenly exerted force.

The explosive black and red lightning shattered the evil power that was gradually spreading to his arm, and then he exerted his strength again, throwing Jennifer away violently.

bang~

The shockwave exploded.
