Rick and Morty: My Grandfather is Rick?

As a spirit, Morty could easily crush physical beings if they lacked the ability to retaliate.

It can confront soul beings that are almost identical to itself.

Those fancy tricks won't get you anywhere; you have to beat them to a pulp with the hardest blows.

But Kerry isn't going to just stand there like an idiot.

Seeing that Kizgus was able to hold off Morty, he took out the teleportation gun and continued chanting the incantation from the book.

This time, he read for a very long time.

Despite Morty's repeated desperate attempts to break through Kizgus's defenses, this creature, which had lived for hundreds of millions of years, easily blocked them all.

Whether it's a long blade, Veronica, or simply ramming it with something, or even Slaanesh from the Four Evil Gods, none of them can break through the defense with its sharp high heels.

This 'beast' with defenses comparable to an impenetrable fortress didn't even retaliate; it simply used its elastic and tough skin to easily block all of Morty's attacks.

At this moment, the difference between souls and physical beings was laid bare before Morty.

So what if you're lucky enough to become the master of your own thoughts?

As a Morty, following Rick around won't give you much practical experience; Rick can handle most problems for you anytime.

So what can you do?

Even though the gel-like object protecting Kerry didn't show its face, Morty could still feel the disdain emanating from it.

That kind of nonchalant contempt.

It deeply hurt Morty's heart.

He admitted that most of the time when he was with his maternal grandfather, he didn't need to do anything; his grandfather could nip problems in the bud.

But I am definitely not some weakling!

"You seem pretty unconvinced? Well, to buy some time, how about I tell you about that potion?"

After nearly fifteen minutes of being there, Kizgus finally spoke. Its voice, which sounded as if it were speaking with a mouthful of water, forced Morty to concentrate so that he could hear what it was saying.

Glancing intently at Kizgus's back, where Kri continued his incessant chatter, he sensed things were getting worse and took a deep breath, deciding to take a gamble.

Thus, under the structure of a soul body, Morty maintained his outward appearance, while the other part of his body circled around from under the ground, and at the same time, he continuously placed more mental cannon fodder to his left and right sides as he moved.

Standing on the ground, he began to contend with Kizgus.

"The potion? Tell me about it!"

Knowing that Morty would definitely be interested in Kizgus, he continued, "You know, a person is born with talents, those abilities given to them by their DNA, which allow them to have all of this without having to put in as much effort as others for a particular thing, right?"

"Potions can't truly turn you into an Old One unless you replace every piece of your skin, every drop of your blood, and every strand of your DNA. Otherwise, it's less of a power and more of a curse, a slave contract."

"You can't hurt me, have you realized that?"

"Why do you think that someone who drinks a potion given to them by an Old One can use that power to harm the Old One?"

Do we look that stupid?

"Over hundreds of millions of years, we've witnessed countless betrayals. We no longer trust anyone, you know that?"

As Kizgus spoke, the gelatinous monster's body suddenly changed shape, transforming into a scythe.

To Morty and Kerry's astonished gazes.

The scythe severed Kerry's head!

Rick, who had already died but eventually escaped from Hell, fled to the Cthulhu world after going through many hardships.

The guy who's planning to recruit those Old Ones to his side and seek revenge on Beth.

He died on the spot.

Even their souls were not spared by Kizgus.

Watching Kree's white, misty soul wail as it was absorbed by Kizgus, Morty immediately focused his attention on the teleportation gun.

Regardless of what Kizgus is trying to do.

Kree's teleportation gun must absolutely not fall into the enemy's hands!

Thousands of mental cannon fodder seeped out from beneath the ground and rushed toward the creature, trying to hold it back for three or four seconds.

"You think I can't see through your useless little tricks?"

The scythe's tip pierced the rock, the blade began to spin, and after smashing through all the mental cannon fodder, the tip immediately stabbed towards the teleportation gun.

It collided with Morty's right hand.

"Hiss... Ah!!!!"

Like being stung by a giant wasp, Morty's face was contorted in pain. After instinctively pulling his hand back, he mustered all his strength and charged up from the ground.

As he launched the teleportation gun off the ground, he reached out with his left hand to grab it. Kizgus, noticing Morty's actions, also used his other hand to try and grab it.

Just as the two were about to touch the object at the same time, Morty, who had been seriously vying for the teleportation gun, suddenly asked Kizgus with a smile, "Where do you think I usually keep my own teleportation gun?"

"What...no!! Fuck!!!"

Amidst Kizgus's horrified reaction, a portal emitting a glossy green light opened directly in the middle of Kizgus's body.

Before Kizgus, whose body had been completely severed, could even let out a scream, he began to react rapidly with the energy of the portal.

After Morty took Kerry's teleportation gun, he turned around and fled in a panic.

This teleportation gun, which usually gives the impression of being just a means of transportation, is anything but harmless.

After all, with a bunch of electronic components and some teleportation fluid, you can create something that won't cause the teleporter to lose a body part when they arrive in another world.

For this reason alone, a portal cannot be something that can be destroyed with a light kick.

On the contrary, it can remain firmly in the middle of a tank, cutting it completely without any impact. If it becomes unstable, it means a massive explosion is not far off...

Chapter 457 Siblings Turn Against Each Other

"Hiss... Morty, you've really messed things up this time... I feel terrible..."

"Will that damn teleportation gun even let us leave?!"

"Waaaaah, I knew it! I knew it would end like this! No matter how much you assured me, something was bound to happen!"

On a mountain 2,000 meters high, 100 kilometers away, covered with strange rocks, there was a sacrificial site of some ancient ruler. Morty, who had been running wildly, brought Sangmi, who hadn't gone very far, to this place.

The group of religious followers looked at the distant object, which had not exploded in the past hour, but whose size had grown to resemble a giant piece of bubblegum, inflated to a length and width of fifty kilometers and emitting a glossy green color.

Whenever it gets a little wider than before, everyone thinks that this thing is about to explode, but it just doesn't explode and continues to expand its terrifying size.

Faced with such a danger, the best solution is naturally to open a portal, embark on a classic Rick-esque escape, head to a bar in another world, order a strong drink, and celebrate escaping the mundane life of eating, drinking, and relieving oneself in yet another world.

But that damn thing was caused by both the portal and Kizgus. It should have been killed instantly after being cut open by the portal.

And indeed, he's dead.

However, there has never been any non-existent life in this world. If any kind of life is examined down to the atomic level, then it is a life that does not truly exist if there are no atoms.

So when Kizgus and the portal merged and collided at the atomic level, things got messy.

Moty is unaware of the situation elsewhere.

But he knew that the teleportation gun was completely unusable and could not open the portal at all.

So, just as Sangmei complained.

No matter how much you guarantee nothing will happen, trouble still happened!

"What could I do? If I hadn't used the teleportation gun to deal with Kizgus, I wouldn't have been able to win through conventional combat."

"You're making it sound so easy..."

"The potion was given to me by Kelp. It did make me stronger, but the damage I can inflict on any of the Great Old Ones is almost as little as a mosquito bite, you know that!"

After telling Sangmei to stop wasting time complaining, Morty glanced again at the increasingly large "bubble gum" in the distance. He knew he had to use the Face Fruit ability next.

After all, if he were to run away alone, let alone the traditional method of running on foot, the propulsion system from the Skrull warship design blueprints he obtained from Marvel would be enough for Morty to simply fly into the sky and escape to outer space.

But with Saumi here, Morty can't use this wild style of escape.

So, when the teleportation gun is completely unusable due to interference from the distant 'bubble gum', how can you instantly teleport Sangmi away?

It all comes down to saving face...

The sacrificial site behind him would be the test of his grandfather's prestige, to see just how powerful he truly was in this multiverse.

He turned around, walked quickly, stood in front of the statue, and realized it was a statue of Old Kelvin himself. He then turned and left.

The entire process was completed smoothly and effortlessly.

Damn... Old K is probably still in the rebirth stage. Even if he can hear his own voice, he has no way to tear open the cosmic wall to save himself.

"Let's go, let's go. What bad luck! The statue here is actually Old K's. But there are statues everywhere in this world. I refuse to believe I can't find other K-related evil gods."

Sangmei, who was trying to calm herself down, almost lost her temper when she heard Morty's words.

What?

I just risked my life, walking at least five thousand meters of steep mountain path from the foot of the mountain. One wrong step and I could have fallen to my death. That's how I got to this mountain, which is over two thousand meters high.

Then I stood in front of the sacrificial site for five or six minutes.

Didn't you even bother to check who the deity worshipped here is?!

"Fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sangmei, who originally didn't want to come along, was tricked into not being able to open the portal, and had to climb the mountain for so long. Now that she has to go down the mountain, she can no longer maintain her image as a kind older sister.

Having kept so many things on her mind, she finally opened up.

"You're a pig! Morty! You're a piece of trash who talks nonsense, never thinks things through, and has absolutely no sense of responsibility!"

"I really don't understand what kind of good-for-nothing like you has the right to be Rick's Morty!"

"All this time! I've been ignored by this family! Have I ever uttered a single complaint! I've been enduring it all! Enduring this! Enduring that! Now I finally can't take it anymore! You better listen to me! Morty, you're trash!"

"Grandpa has poured so many resources into you!"

"Besides showing off all day, you always leave everything to your grandpa when there's a problem! You're a piece of trash! Where have all your abilities gone! What use are you? What good are you? Summon a few mind entities to satisfy your slave-master fetish?"

"Even Tzeentch is leaving you! Don't you have any self-awareness?"
