He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 365 Return to the Holy Land (Third Update)

When Pope Shion decided to pass the papacy to Sagittarius Aiolos, Saga had no objections; it was only Kanon who felt it was unfair to his brother.

He felt that his older brother was the strongest among the Gold Saints, and his age was no less than Aiolos', plus he had a younger brother like him.

Therefore, he instigated his brother Saga to use the golden sword that could kill gods to kill Athena and Pope Shion, who had just been born into the Sanctuary, and to take their place and thus rule the Sanctuary.

Saga, kind-hearted and filled with justice, refused on the spot and imprisoned his brother Kanon in a rocky dungeon in the Snevan Strait, making him reflect on the evil in his heart.

However, that very night Saga's personality suddenly changed drastically, and he actually followed Kanon's advice to kill the Pope and also wanted to kill Athena.

The reason for this lies in the fact that when the twins were just born, Kel, the sister of Hades and Thanatos, the twin gods of the underworld, secretly created an evil spirit and put it into Saga's body, forming a new soul, Black Saga.

Thirteen years ago, it was Blackie who seized control of the body, which led to this series of tragedies.

Moreover, thanks to the power of Kel's God, Black Saga was stronger than the kind-hearted Blue Saga. In the end, even with the help of Athena's cosmos and their strength temporarily raised to the Gold level, the five Bronze Saints working together still couldn't defeat him.

Lansa forcibly seized control of the body for a few seconds, and only ended it by committing suicide.

As for why Kel did this, it was obviously to make the Sanctuary fight amongst themselves. If he could kill Athena and take control of the Sanctuary, that would be even better. If not, he would at least severely damage the Sanctuary.

And she did indeed do it.

During the Saga Rebellion, Pope Shion died, leaving only six of the twelve Gold Saints: Libra, Taurus, Virgo, Aries, Leo, and Scorpio. Furthermore, most of the Silver Saints perished.

If it weren't for the unexpected rise of the five Bronze Saints, the Holy War would have been lost without a doubt.

"Then let's head to the Sanctuary, defeat the Pope, and let everyone know what the truth is."

At this moment, Seiya spoke with great enthusiasm.

Before Li Chuan could stop her, Sharna had already spoken:

"Seiya, you're too naive. With our strength, we simply cannot defeat Sanctuary. There are many Silver Saints in Sanctuary who are stronger than me, and above them are Gold Saints whom we have no chance of defeating!"

"What? There's only one set of Gold Cloths?"

At this moment, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

They still believe that there is only one set of Gold Cloths in the world, and that the strongest Gold Cloth has been bestowed upon the powerful Li Chuan by Athena.

This is also the source of their confidence to directly enter the Holy Domain.

Sharna shook her head:

"That's not the case. Seiya, you guys were always at the bottom when you were in Asgard. You didn't know that there were twelve Gold Palaces on the way to the Pope's Palace, and each palace had a Gold Saint."

How terrifying is the power of the Gold Saints?

To put it simply, the minimum requirement to become a Gold Saint is that your punching speed must reach the speed of light!

"What?! His punch speed is the speed of light!"

Upon hearing Shaina's introduction, Seiya and the others trembled in fear.

Their current punching speed is at most around Mach 2. Ikki, who was resurrected, is estimated to be around Mach 4 or 5. Even the strongest Li Chuan only showed Mach 10.

The speed of light is approximately 880,000 Mach, a difference that is truly like heaven and earth.

"Sharina is right, but we can't just sit here and wait to die."

At this moment, Li Chuan walked up:

"My suggestion is that everyone should not rush to the Holy Land. Instead, try to improve your own strength first, and then tell the truth to someone you can trust, such as your master."

This will make our side stronger and stronger.

The fake pope certainly wouldn't let it go so easily; he would definitely send other Saints over.

We'll wait here and wait for them to come, taking them down one by one, and the Holy Land's strength will become weaker and weaker.

When the time is right, we will attack the Sanctuary and defeat the false Pope in one fell swoop!

After saying that, he looked at Kido Saori:

"Miss Saori, what do you think?"

Saori Kido thought for a moment, then nodded:

"You're right. We can't act rashly. Let's do it your way."

At this point, Saori Kido had already exited the state she was in when Athena was awakened, but she herself had inherited Athena's wisdom, so she was not stupid and knew that Li Chuan's approach was the safest at the moment.

"Then let's set off quickly and return before the Sanctuary sends out a second wave of Saints to attack."

"Glacier spoke," the glacier said.

The Sanctuary just sent Sharna and others over. Before confirming Sharna and others' mission information, they will probably send more people to attack again for a while, which gives them time to respond.

After some discussion, the group decided on the next steps.

Ikki stayed behind with Shaina and the others to protect Saori Kido's safety, Hyoga returned to Seraphim to find his master, the Crystal Saint, Shun returned to Andromeda Island to find his master, Cepheus Albiote, and Shiryu returned to Mount Goro to find his teacher, Dohko.

Meanwhile, Seiya and Li Chuan secretly infiltrated the Sanctuary to find Marin and gather information about the situation there, hoping to obtain any useful details.

"My spatial abilities can only teleport me to places I've been before and places I've marked. I'll take Seiya to the Sanctuary first, and once things are settled there, I'll use the markings to teleport back to you all."

After confirming the plan, Shiryu, Hyoga, and Shun each boarded a plane to return to their training grounds to find their master, while Li Chuan, along with Seiya, directly Apparated to the mountains at the foot of the Sanctuary.

"Seiya, do you remember Miho saying that after you were sent to the Sanctuary, your older sister Seika secretly escaped from the orphanage and disappeared, right?"

"Yes, Ms. Saori told me that she has sent people to search all over the world, but there has been no news yet."

Upon hearing this, Seiya's expression darkened.

Li Chuan smiled and said:

"The world is too big, finding someone is like finding a needle in a haystack, it's not that easy."

However, we can reasonably speculate that your sister Xinghua must have escaped from the orphanage back then to find you, so her goal must have been the Holy Realm.

Getting from Country R to Athens is not difficult; you can take a plane. However, the route from Athens to Sanctuary is through mountains, making it impossible for normal vehicles to pass.

So is it possible that your sister lives in Athens, or in one of the nearby small villages?

"Yes, how come I didn't think of that? This narrows down the search area so much. When I get back, I'll have Ms. Saori send someone to Athens and the surrounding area to help me find my sister."

Upon hearing this, Seiya's eyes lit up. With the Kido family's wealth, if they were only looking for someone in a city or nearby, it wouldn't take long.
