Naruto: In Konoha Village, I awakened Wood Release at the start.

The deepest part of Pangu City.

Among the flowers.

The air seemed to solidify into lead, making it hard to breathe.

The five elderly men who stood at the pinnacle of world power were now kneeling like humble servants at the foot of the steps.

At the top of the stairs, a dark silhouette sat atop the Void Throne.

Im looked down at the Five Elders, his eyes devoid of any warmth a living person should have.

"empire……"

"How dare a mere ant provoke the authority of God?"

Cold syllables escaped from beneath Im's veil.

The flowers and plants between the flowers withered and turned to ash in an instant.

"Lord Im."

"The Empire's fleet has split into nine groups and launched a full-scale invasion of the Grand Line."

"Their vanguard, the Uchiha clan, just killed Saint Charlos."

The five elders, sword in hand, lowered their heads even further, their foreheads pressed against the cold marble.

"The Navy Headquarters is practically defunct; its conventional forces are utterly incapable of stopping these monsters."

The man with the mustache, Wu Laoxing, quickly chimed in, his voice trembling with suppressed emotion.

Im snorted coldly.

This cold snort was like a heavy hammer blow to the heart of the Five Elders.

"Activate the Heavenly King."

These four simple words sent a chill down the spines of all five elders.

Uranus, the foremost of the three Ancient Weapons controlled by the World Government, possesses the world-destroying power to instantly flatten large islands.

The five long-bearded elders mustered their courage and raised their heads, their foreheads covered in cold sweat.

"But……"

"Lord Im, activating Uranus requires a special energy source."

"That's the bloodline of the Creator, the lifeblood of the Celestial Dragons!"

The Heavenly King is not powered by electricity or fire.

Its core furnace needs to devour the pure flesh and blood of Celestial Dragons in order to unleash its world-destroying energy.

Im's gaze grew increasingly cold, as if he were looking at a litter of pigs waiting to be slaughtered.

"The bloodline of the Creator?"

"For eight hundred years, they've been raised like pigs in Mary Geoise, just for this day."

The five elders froze, no longer daring to utter another word.

"The Empire's fleet has nine routes, so let's launch nine Heavenly King Strike attacks."

The five blond elders quickly made a mental calculation.

A single strike by the Celestial King requires the sacrifice of at least three Celestial Dragons.

Nine blows, that's a total of twenty-seven lives!

The fact that twenty-seven Celestial Dragons could vanish from the world in a single day would absolutely cause a great panic in the Holy Land.

"Your subordinate obeys."

But soon.

The five elders unanimously accepted the order.

Since Lord Im has spoken...

Let alone twenty-seven, even if half of the Celestial Dragons in Mary Geoise were wiped out, they would still have to comply.

This bunch of bloated, useless idiots have finally reached the point where they can prove their worth.

……

Deep beneath Mary Geoise.

There is no sunlight here, only a few dim gas lamps barely keeping the light out.

The air was filled with a pungent smell of rust and the stench of stale blood.

Huge bronze mechanical gears slowly meshed on the dome, emitting a teeth-grinding grinding sound.

Directly below the machine was a huge, bottomless, vortex-shaped pit.

The edge of the pit was covered with strange runes, which were now shimmering with a dark red light.

"Let me go!"

"You lowly slaves!"

"I am Saint Roswald! Who gave you the audacity to touch me!"

Twenty-seven Celestial Dragons, bound hand and foot, were dragged into the basement like dead dogs by a group of expressionless CP0 agents.

Their bubble headbands had long since burst, and their ornate clothes were covered in mud.

Accustomed to their high and mighty status, the Celestial Dragons had no idea what was going on.

The dogs that usually fawn over them dare to lock them in this filthy place today.

A burly Celestial Dragon struggled desperately, his fat face jiggling.

"Call the General!"

"Execute all these bastards who offend God!"

"I will exterminate your entire family!"

Snapped!

A resounding slap landed hard on the fat Celestial Dragon's face.

The one who made the move was the Five Elders with swords who had just arrived.

His eyes were filled with disgust. He took out a silk handkerchief and wiped his hands as if he had touched something dirty.

"Shut up, you idiot."

The fat Celestial Dragon was stunned by the beating and spat out two bloody teeth.

Upon recognizing the person, he immediately shouted as if grasping at a straw.

"The Five Elders!"

"You've come at the perfect time!"

"Kill these traitors!"

"I'm going to chop them up and feed them to the dogs!"

The Five Old Stars with the Eight-Character Mustache sighed, completely unwilling to deal with this hopeless idiot.

"Push them to the edge of the Heavenly King's Furnace."

Without hesitation, the CP0 agent carried out the order, kicking the Celestial Dragon in the back of the knee.

Pfft!

Pfft!

Twenty-seven Celestial Dragons knelt in unison at the edge of the deep pit.

The suction force from the abyss finally instilled fear in them.

"What...what are you going to do?"

A young female Celestial Dragon screamed, her face covered in tears and snot.

"I have a lot of money!"

"I have a hundred merman slaves!"

"I'll give you whatever you want, just let me go back!"

The arrogant descendant of the creator, who was just moments ago, has now completely shed his disguise.

They cried out, begged, and made a complete fool of themselves.

Some people were so scared that they wet their pants, and the liquid dripped down the marble floor and into the deep pit.

The five long-bearded elders covered their noses in disgust.

"It's really ugly."

"After enjoying privileges for eight hundred years, it is time for you to serve the World Government."

The five blond elders raised their hands and coldly issued the order.

"Fill in three first."

"Target: The Uchiha fleet in the first half of the Grand Line."

Two CP0 agents lifted the terrified Celestial Dragon and carried him directly to the edge of the deep pit.

"No!"

"don't want!"

"I am God—"

A piercing scream shattered the deathly silence of the basement.

As soon as the agent released his grip, the Celestial Dragon fell straight into the dark red vortex.

There was no sound of it hitting the ground, only a chilling sound of flesh being chewed.

Click!

puff!

The red light in the deep pit suddenly surged.

The eerie runes seemed to come alive, resembling blood vessels that suck blood.

"Aaaaaaah!"

The remaining Celestial Dragons, having witnessed their comrades being torn apart, suffered a complete mental breakdown.

They kowtowed frantically, smashing their foreheads until they were bloody and mangled.

"Please, please let me go! I don't want to die!"

"I'll give you all my wealth, I'll just be a commoner!"

The obese Celestial Dragon was so frightened that he convulsed, defecating and urinating, emitting a foul stench.

The five elders, wielding swords, stepped on his back and kicked him into the deep pit.

"Your property originally belonged to the World Government."

Followed by.

The third female Celestial Dragon was also thrown down.

Three bodies containing special bloodlines were completely devoured by the Heavenly King's core furnace.

Rumble—!

The entire Mary Geoise began to shake violently.

The giant gears on the dome whirred wildly, their ear-piercing roar almost shattering eardrums.

A blinding beam of light, too bright to look at with the naked eye, shot into the sky from the deepest part of Pangu City.

The beam of light pierced through the clouds, connecting directly to an unknown entity tens of thousands of meters above the atmosphere.

The Heavenly King has awakened.

……

The first half of the Grand Line.

The Uchiha clan's flagship is cutting through the waves.

On the deck, Uchiha Sasuke rested one hand on the hilt of the Kusanagi sword, gazing listlessly at the gray sky.

"The weather in this area is absolutely nauseating."

Uchiha Itachi stepped onto the deck, his trench coat fluttering in the sea breeze.

"Don't let your guard down, Sasuke."

"His Majesty Chiba said so."

"The world is a very complex place."

"The World Government has ruled for eight hundred years, and its trump cards are far more than just its navy."

Sasuke snorted coldly, and his three-tomoe Sharingan slowly rotated in his eye socket.

"What's your trump card?"

"Even the so-called generals were captured by His Majesty like chickens."

"That Celestial Dragon is a complete waste; he couldn't even block one of my attacks."

Just then.

Uchiha Shisui, who had been standing on the observation platform, jumped down.

He instantly landed in front of the two of them, his expression more solemn than ever before.

Something's not right.

"The surrounding natural energy... is being repelled by some extremely violent force."

Zhi Shui had barely finished speaking.

The entire sea suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

The wind stopped.

The waves froze.

Even the moisture in the air seemed to be instantly sucked away, making it difficult to breathe.

The originally gray sky was suddenly torn open by a terrifying crack that stretched for tens of thousands of meters.

Deep within the crack, a chilling red light appeared.

The red light expanded extremely quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it dyed the entire sky red.

"Something fell from the sky!"

A member of the Uchiha clan pointed to the sky and shouted in a hoarse voice.

He didn't need to remind me.

Everyone felt that overwhelming sense of impending doom.

That was a power beyond human comprehension, a pure concept of destruction.

boom--

No sound.

Because the sound waves from the explosion were beyond the limits of what the human ear could detect.

A dark red energy beam, over a kilometer in diameter, crashed down from the sky.

The target is the sea area where the Uchiha fleet is located!

The beam of light had not yet touched the sea surface.

The terrifyingly high temperature caused the seawater to boil instantly.

A large amount of white steam shot into the sky, only to be instantly ionized by the high temperature of the light beam.

"Enemy attack!"

"All units, defend!"

Fugaku Uchiha rushed out of the cabin, his Mangekyou Sharingan operating wildly.

Sasuke gritted his teeth, his eyes instantly switching to kaleidoscope patterns.

"Get out of here, you charlatan!"

Purple chakra surged forth.

A winged, half-body Susanoo rose from the ground.

Itachi did not hesitate. His red Susanoo, holding the Yata Mirror, blocked the view directly above the main ship.

A dozen elite Uchiha warriors with Mangekyou Sharingan simultaneously unleashed their Susanoo.

Chakra giants of various colors stretched across the sea, forming an impenetrable defensive line.

next second.

The Heavenly King's destructive beam slammed into Susanoo's defensive line.

Sizzle sizzle—

A sickeningly loud sound of energy annihilating each other rang out.

Sasuke's facial muscles twitched violently, as if he were trying to hold up a collapsing Mount Tai with his bare hands.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

The energy of the Heavenly King does not belong to chakra, nor to natural energy, but is an extremely domineering high-dimensional destructive ray.

Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the purple Susanoo's armor.

Even if they mastered the method to overcome kaleidoscope blindness, their pupil power is not limitless.

Under the relentless onslaught of this world-destroying beam of light, an ordinary Susanoo simply cannot withstand it for long.

"Step back."

"Sasuke, Itachi."

A gentle yet absolutely confident voice rang in their ears.

Uchiha Shisui stepped forward and placed his hand on Sasuke's shoulder.

At this moment, a strange red eyeshadow appeared at the corner of Shisui's eyes.

An aura even more vast and closer to the origin of heaven and earth than Susanoo erupted from his body.

Sage Mode!

During the years of stagnation in the Empire, Shisui had long since internalized the Sage Mode.

He raised his head, his Mangekyou Sharingan fixed on the pillar of light overhead that seemed to pierce through the earth's core.

"This level of power, and they dare to flaunt it before the Empire?"

"Let me show you what true power is."

boom!

Dark green chakra shot into the sky like a volcanic eruption.

The natural energy that had been rejected by the Heavenly King seemed to have found an outlet, and frantically converged towards the still water.

The green chakra rapidly condensed and expanded, transforming into a complete Susanoo hundreds of meters tall.

But this is not over yet!

With the blessing of Sage Chakra.

Mysterious sage incantations appeared on the surface of this complete Susanoo.

The chakra armor that was originally illusory has now solidified as if it were the armor of a real god.

Sage Art: Perfect Susanoo!

This green giant, which surpassed even mountains, directly withstood the most intense impact of the Heavenly King's pillar of light.

Uchiha Shisui formed hand seals, and Susanoo simultaneously drew its sword.

The armor on his chest cracked open, and a spiral sword shimmering with a green glow was pulled out.

Sage Art: Susanoo - Ninety-Nine!

No.

This is no ordinary ninety-nine.

Shisui raised the spiral sword high, its tip pointing directly at the energy rift in the sky.

"Break for me!"

The green giant roared.

The spiral sword in his hand pierced fiercely into the dark red pillar of light.

The raging Sage Chakra clashed violently with the Destructive Energy of the Heavenly King.

At this moment, the space seemed like a crumpled piece of paper, rippling out in visible black waves.

Click!

It was accompanied by a crisp cracking sound.

That invincible pillar of heavenly light was actually cleaved in two by the spiral sword!

The cleaved beam of light cascaded to both sides and plunged into the deep sea in the distance.

The aftershocks alone evaporated billions of tons of seawater in an instant, and even carved two bottomless canyons into the seabed crust.

However, the Uchiha fleet remained unscathed under Shisui's protection.

The water-stopping action did not stop.

He manipulated the Sage Art Susanoo, using the Spiral Sword as a drill, and went against the flow of the remaining pillar of light.

Boom boom boom!

The green giant shattered the void and ascended into the sky step by step.

"I don't care what kind of thing you are."

"Since you dare to show your face, then stay here!"

The green flames on the spiral sword burned ever brighter, completely shredding the dark red clouds in the sky.

That unstoppable sword intent followed the trajectory of the beam of light, heading straight for the energy source tens of thousands of meters in the air.

……

The basement of Mary Geoise.

The operation of the Heavenly King Furnace suddenly emitted a piercing, sputtering sound.

The five elders were covered in sweat, staring intently at the monitor screen.

On the screen, the incredible scene from the Grand Line was shown.

A towering green demon god, despite the Heavenly King's direct attack, actually managed to cleave the pillar of light in two!

"That's impossible!"

The five elders, wielding swords, roared in a fit of rage, their hands trembling as they gripped their blades.

"The Heavenly King is a weapon capable of piercing even the Red Line!"

"Just what kind of monster is that man named Uchiha Shisui?!"

The five long-bearded elders were so anxious they were jumping up and down.

"quick!"

"Increase the output power!"

"Throw in three more Celestial Dragons!"

"No, throw five!"

CP0 agents carried out orders mechanically, pushing the remaining Celestial Dragons into the deep pit.

"No! Help!"

"I curse you! May you all die a horrible death!"

Those noble descendants of the Creator are now less than the lowest beggars.

They scratched at the ground, oblivious to their broken fingernails, leaving behind only a dozen or so glaring bloodstains.

Pfft!Pfft!

Five more bodies fell into the furnace.

The core red light suddenly expanded, almost blinding everyone.
