Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates

This is incredible! In the Saint Seiya world, across all the multiverses, this person's strength is among the most top-tier, surpassing even the level of an absolute god.

One theory is that Saturn is the manifestation of the power of the god Chronos, who created a divine body for himself so that he could walk among humans.

In the entire Saint Seiya world, among all the known side stories and manga, if we were to rank them by strength, Saturn would definitely be the strongest, the most powerful of all the gods who have appeared so far.

Now that I've got all the good stuff I could get, should I just run away?

As for Athena, he had only had a brief encounter with her. After all, just a few days ago, Rhodes had enjoyed the goddess's supple body.

If she's willing to run with me, then I'll pack up the whole Earth and run with her!

However, given the current situation, it's clearly unrealistic to run away with Athena or even the entire Earth!

Or he could simply run away alone, and come back later when he's strong enough to challenge this god-like player.

At this point, Rhodes wanted to run away, even abandoning his father-in-law Kaido!

There was no way around it; since gaining the ability to travel through time, the most powerful being he had ever encountered was the one standing before him. Even Sargeras was insignificant in comparison.

Sargeras's level is that of a possessor of ultimate power, but he hasn't even reached the level of an absolute god.

And the one in front of him, the so-called absolute god, was no different from an ant in his presence.

"No need to be nervous! I mean no harm!" Saturn immediately reassured Rhodes, seemingly noticing his slightly uncomfortable expression.

He even put away his divine artifact, the True Eternal Dance, and the divine robes he wore, and put on a magnificent robe instead.

"Your Highness Saturn, what brings you here?" Rhodes took a deep breath and asked.

However, he secretly activated all his spatial abilities to the fullest extent, and Rhodes would run away immediately if anything went wrong.

"I am very curious about your power. I noticed you after you came into this world and after you awakened your divine cosmos."

"Could you give me some of your life force, that destructive power, and that power of order?" Saturn asked, sitting down in front of Rhodes.

Upon hearing this, Rhodes's expression softened slightly. So, they had their eyes on his life force—the power of fel and the power of order.

But seriously, what level of existence are you? You're a god! You've surpassed even the absolute god.

Even within the Marvel comic book universe, you'd be on a super-cosmic level; in terms of prestige and combat power, you'd even surpass the Living Tribunal.

Only the Primal Transcendent, or the Creator God OAA, could defeat you. Would someone of that level really be interested in your evil power, life energy, and power of order?

"Your Highness Saturn, if you need these powers, I will offer them to you free of charge," Rhodes said.

I just don't know how much this person needs. If they need too much, even if I drain myself dry, it probably won't be enough!

The principles of life are relatively easy to understand, but as for the powers of evil and order, my current level is only equivalent to surpassing a demigod, and not even reaching the level of a true god.

"I'll make the exchange with you! These two powers are of some use to me," Saturn said.

"No need, Your Highness Saturn. If you need it, I will provide it free of charge. However, my strength is really insignificant in front of you. If the amount you need is too large, I may not be able to provide it," Rhodes said.

"Heh! Rhodes, do you know that if you say that, you're insulting me? I'm a super god, and you're at least a god from another universe."

"I want to make a deal with you, not be a robber. Remember me, I am a god, not a robber. I never steal or rob other people's things," Saturn said.

If he really wanted to take action against this outsider, then Saturn could have done so the moment Saturn arrived in this world.

You might kill your opponent before they even have a chance to react, but what's the point of doing that?

Is it just about obtaining the three types of energy from the other party? That's meaningless to him, a god-like figure.

"I am the origin of everything, transcending time and space. There is nothing in this world that I do not know, nothing that I do not understand."

Because everything originated from my birth, even those absolute gods, those absolute gods who can create countless universes, all originated from me.

"I know everything about this world, past and future, but your appearance has shown me something different," Saturn said.

Literally speaking, he is the origin of this world, the only supreme god born from the void, and the origin of countless myths.

Each of the absolute gods created its own independent single universe, thus forming this world.

When Rhodes first came to this world, he was pitifully weak and didn't attract Saturn's attention at all. After all, if a bacterium that's not even a fly suddenly flew into your fishpond, would you care about that bacterium?

But when Rhodes came back a second time, he had already evolved into a large fish in his own pond.

Furthermore, this fish was one that he had never seen before, which caught the attention of the god-like Saturn.

"I was presumptuous, Your Excellency God. As noble as you are, you would never steal or rob others. If you need it, I will make a deal with you," Rhodes said.

He had underestimated the existence of a god-like being. Such a being would not stoop to steal something from someone like him, as that would lower his own status.

For example, how could an emperor possibly snatch a steamed bun from a commoner's hand, even if he had never seen the bun before?

He would have someone buy the steamed bun back at a high price instead of stealing it.

"I hope you can understand. I once made a hypothesis when I was just born."

I believe there must be other worlds beyond this one, but I couldn't prove it before. It was just a theoretical concept. I thought that above the will of the gods, there was a primordial god with ultimate power.

Then there's the absolute god who created a single universe. So, are there even more powerful beings above me, and am I just another being like the absolute god? I've always had this hypothesis.

"Until you appeared, you proved my conjecture was correct. There are other worlds beyond this one, different places, and energies I've never seen before—things other than divine power," Saturn said.

Am I the master of this world? He asked himself this question the moment he was born: if I am the master of this world!

So theoretically, he should be able to control everything, and even leave this world, but obviously he can't do that, or even surpass the power of Omega. Theoretically, he could fight him, but that's just theory; he's never seen it.

He proclaimed himself the overlord of all time and space, a god born from nothingness, an existence that came from nothing.

But only he knew that this was not the case. The birth of this world had nothing to do with him. He did not create this world; rather, the world created it.

Even those absolute gods were not created by him, but rather naturally emerged from this world. It's just that in myths and legends, he uses himself as the source of everything.

Even his own body was only slightly stronger than that of an absolute god. Although it could regenerate infinitely and was theoretically immortal, this body was not worthy of him as a super god.

When he has a physical form, he is called Saturn; when he does not have a physical form, he is Chronos.

Now, upon seeing this life form before him, this special god, Saturn finally had a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of hope to escape this world.

However, we cannot be too hasty now. The god in front of us is still too weak. He has not even reached the very top in the will of the gods, let alone the primordial god who controls ultimate power, or the even more powerful absolute god!

He can only help me when his strength is about the same as mine.

Therefore, when Saturn appeared before Rhodes and proposed a trade of the three energies, it was actually a disguised form of investment.

After the other party entered this universe and became one of the gods, Saturn was able to master the power that Rhodes controlled with just one glance.

Why come here to trade? Because as a powerful god, he can't just give Rhodes benefits right away!

He needs to find a way to help Rhodes grow to the level of an absolute god, or even further, in order to help himself.

Those absolute gods, each one of them is a creator god, possessing unparalleled power from the moment of their birth, second only to him, the super god.

Cultivating such a powerful being is no easy task, so Saturn decided to personally deliver some benefits to this god without arousing suspicion.

"You only need to give me three types of energy, just a little bit of each. It won't even be considered a consumption for you. I only need to sense these three types of energy to control them," Saturn said.

Wen Yanluo breathed a sigh of relief, immediately condensed a ball of evil energy, order energy, and life energy, then put it in a sealed bottle and handed it to this super god.

Saturn nodded and put away all three types of energy that Rhode had sent him. In the future, when he saw Rhode, he would have a legitimate reason to use these three powers.

"These energies come from other worlds and will be of some help to me. Is there anything you want?" Saturn coughed and asked.

Why does this god-like figure seem a bit strange?

Forget it! I'm not in a position to think that much now. In front of this person, I'm nothing.

"Lord God, I originally intended to seize Hades's divine position and divine status, but I have now imprisoned his soul," Rhodes said.

"I see. So you want Hades's throne?" Saturn nodded and said.

How pathetic! You are also an awakened one of the wills of the gods, as is Hades.

Even your own divine power is not much less than Hades', and may even be stronger, especially the primal divine power you possess, which is the power that enabled you to embark on the path of primal godhood.

Your most important task now is to master this primordial divine power, thereby reaching the ultimate power, the level of a primordial god, and then progressing towards an absolute god.

You actually want to seize the power of Hades, the god of the underworld? In Saturn's eyes, that's a complete waste of time!

The other party possesses extremely powerful spatial abilities, even capable of traversing worlds, but if you want to discuss things with me, or even exchange and learn from each other, then you at least need to reach a godlike level!

What should we do? How can we increase this little guy's power? (Although Saturn is known as the overlord of all time and space, he cannot arbitrarily create a primordial god or an absolute god.)

"Lord Saturn! You are the god who controls time. Could you create a divine artifact for me that would allow me to accelerate the time of a planet or an entire galaxy at will?" Rhodes asked tentatively.

He didn't need Saturn's help to seize the power of Hades; he could handle it himself.

When planting the Divine Tree in the future, the power of time will be needed to accelerate the process, but the power of the Time Stone in the Marvel universe has already been exhausted.

Replenishing the power of time in the Marvel universe every time it runs out is too troublesome. It would be great if this master of time were willing to help.

If this overlord of all time and space were willing to lend a hand in creating a small gadget that could accelerate time within a certain area, it would be of great benefit to him.

"Hmm! So, you want to learn the power of time from me? To learn how to apply the laws of time," Saturn said.

To learn the power of time and comprehend its essence, even the primordial gods are not qualified; only those who reach the level of absolute gods are qualified.

Moreover, they must be among the best of the absolute gods.

Of course, this is only the time law he has mastered. If it is some low-level time power, then it can also be cultivated. However, the super god would not care about such things. If you want to learn, you have to learn the best.

"Ahem! What I meant was that I would like to ask you to help me make a time artifact. I wouldn't dare trouble you, Lord Super God," Rhodes said.

Please, my current power isn't enough to even touch the laws of time. All I have is some powerful spatial ability.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you some applications of the laws of time, but you must at least reach the level of an absolute god before you can learn from me," Saturn said.

The primordial divine power this kid possesses is far inferior to that of a true primordial god, but since he obtained primordial divine power during the era of the will of the gods, he certainly has a lot of room for growth.

Damn! Absolutely divine! You make it sound so easy!

I've only just begun to grasp the will of the gods; I haven't even figured out that the primordial gods possess ultimate power yet!

"What you should be doing right now is not actually fusing with Hades's divine power. I know you possess very powerful primordial divine power. You should transform your divine power with attributes into primordial divine power without any attributes."

I sense a divine power within you that grows stronger over time.

However, it's still a bit lacking compared to the power of the primordial gods, let alone the power of an absolute god. Saturn intended to give Rhodes some pointers and tell him the right path.

(To clarify the setting here, Sargeras and Azeroth are both at the level of primordial gods with ultimate power. Azeroth, who is born with control over the six Forces, cannot surpass the primordial gods, because absolute gods reach the level of the multiverse and can create more than one single universe. Although the Titans in the God of War universe possess primordial god power, they basically do not use it and are considered a kind of deformed god.)

Study primordial divine power! I'd love to!

But the simplest way now is to continue cultivating the Ten-Tails, and then cultivate a Ten-Tails that can devour the Titans, and then devour the corpse of a primordial Titan.

Then a Titan Fruit with primordial divine power will appear, and then I can eat these fruits and reach the level of a primordial god.

So, God of War, you should make me a time-traveling artifact now!

"Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty, but I am still far from being an absolute god. I'm afraid it will take a long time to reach that level," Rhodes said.

The meaning has been expressed very subtly; what Rhodes still wants is an artifact that can accelerate time.

"You've decided you still want a time artifact, right? Fine, I'll grant your request," Saturn said.

"Thank you, Your Highness Saturn!" Rhodes said.

Saturn didn't speak, but simply nodded, and a green power of time appeared in his palm.

It then gradually solidified into a small ring, which was then handed to Rhodes.

"This is a divine artifact that I created using the power of time, and I have modified it."

It allows you to barely use primal divine power to accelerate the time of an entire planet or a whole galaxy.

"If you can reach the level of an absolute god, then using this artifact can even accelerate the time of the entire universe. The extent of the acceleration is related to the strength of your divine power." Saturn explained the function of this time artifact to Rhodes in detail.

To use a time-manipulating artifact created by a god of his level, one would need at least the ultimate power of a primordial god.

It will be very difficult for this kid to use it now, but it's still usable.

Upon hearing this, Rhodes nodded and put away the circular time artifact. With this time artifact, he would have much more room to maneuver in the future.

"You seem to have a good relationship with Athena in this timeline!" Saturn remarked.

This kid wants the power of Hades. Saturn had a plan in mind; perhaps this would allow him to touch the threshold of a primordial god. (End of Chapter)
