Chapitre 451: Battle of Different Systems
"The power of Metal Rule?" asked Edward as he sensed the power left in his scarred palms. "No, this power is not even 1% of the power of Rules."
He frowned, wondering why this attack was so weird.
"You dare be distracted?" yelled Naruto before summoning six Truth Seeking Balls and turning them into spears.
Swish!
Edward disappeared and evaded the attack, his eyes still focusing on analyzing the power on his palm.
[Darkness Flame Meteor Shower]
Maav created millions of massive dark meteor burning with dark flames. They rushed toward Edward with unimaginable speed. However, while distracted, he evaded all the meteors, not allowing a single one to touch him.
Suddenly, the Saiyan, Tamat, appeared behind him using Instant Transmission. She tried to hold him tied so one of the attacks could hit. However, Edward reacted as if he knew she would be there.
He elbowed her in her face before creating a massive pushing force, sending her crashing countless light-years away.
"Is this [Sword Intent]?" he suddenly asked Bai Li. However, no one answered him.
"Interesting. The Cultivation System allows people to resonate with the rules and [Authority], thus borrowing a fragment of their powers.
"Does this method have a requirement for Willpower?"
This question was very important to him. If there is a requirement for Willpower, then the concept of [Sword Intent] or any [Intent] is a way to train Legendary Arcanists that control the rules. The Empire can use this method to enter the era where Legendary Arcanists are more common.
However, if the Immortal Cultivation System does not have any requirement for Willpower, it will mean that their system is only useful to their specific universe. It would mean that Cultivators can only control the rules in their Universe and not others–unless special methods are used, like the Samsara Hall.
[Soul Cutting]
Bai Li's response to him was another slash. Sadly, Edward only moved slightly to evade this attack.
'A combination of Metal and Soul Energy; it's a brilliant method worth learning,' analyzed Edward as he sensed this attack targeted his soul directly.
"He's using Observation Haki," suddenly said Tamat, who flew back from the distance.
"Are you sure?" asked Maav.
"I've fought with Haki Masters before. The way he moves is the same as those who can see the future."
Maav squinted his eyes as he analyzed the information he gathered on the Arcanist. The latter was very likely an Omniversal Traveler and knew about different Story Universes like Naruto and Dragon Ball Z.
With new information, Maav accessed the level of threat of his opponent. Then, he sent a signal to the fleet behind him, who seemed useless from the beginning of the battle.
"Huh?" muttered Edward, who suddenly felt he could not use the Observation Haki he learned from Tobias to see the future.
"Shanks is called the Observation Haki Killer. Are you using a similar method?" commented Edward.
The way Observation Haki sees the future does not involve any Space-Time knowledge or energy. No, it used a more brilliant method.
By pushing the senses to the extreme, the user will combine their senses with their Willpower to read the Will of the Universe and catch a glimpse of the future.
After analyzing the essence of this method, Edward marveled at the ingenious application of Willpower. It's a shame that Haki only has methods of Willpower application but not how to increase it. The only way to increase Willpower in One Piece is through battle or experiencing many things in life.
'Morgana, record their methods so we can learn,' ordered Edward. He used Observation Haki to test whether this method was applicable to other Arcanists in the Empire. After all, seeing into the future is an excellent way to have an advantage in battles.
And in the Empire, only people with an advanced understanding of Time Magic can see even 0.1 seconds into the future.
Luckily, the results were excellent. This method can be used even beyond Tier 11. The only drawback is it is not a passive technique but requires active use to work.
'Yes, boss,' replied the little elf. Meanwhile, Edward finally removed the smile on his face; his demeanor changed, making these four nervous.
'Get ready,' roared Maav through their special communication. Then, he turned into a ferocious demonic creature.
'A Balrog?' thought Edward. 'No, it looks slightly different.'
Balrog had red flames emanating from their bodies, followed by the smell of sulfur. However, Maav had black flames. Furthermore, his wings were gray instead of black and did not look like flesh and blood–they looked like floating clouds.
Maav was not the only one who took action.
Naruto entered the Sage of Six Path Mode and the Sage Mode. Tamat had a red aura around her, and Edward guessed she used Kaioken. Meanwhile, Bai Li's aura also increased, followed by her skin turning bright red.
'Is this their most powerful method?' thought Edward. Although he looked like he was not taking them seriously, that's only on the surface; it's only a tactic he used to test the enemy.
He did not dare underestimate these elites who rose in the Samsara Hall from regular people to Tier 8. In terms of combat experience, he was inferior to these people since he could count on one hand the number of Life and Death battles he had.
Even if he uses Illusion, where he seals his memory to ensure he experiences Life and Death Battles, it is not the same since, ultimately, he will not die in these simulations.
Finally, he knew that these reincarnators would have a powerful trump card, a super powerful method that could threaten his life. For example, he does not doubt the Wizard has a powerful Magic Scroll with power beyond Tier 8.
As for whether that power is Tier 9 or Tier 10, he was not sure. So, he was extremely cautious and prepared in case of an emergency.
'Let's see your limits,' thought Edward before using one of his favorite spells:
[Elemental Armageddon]
Countless magic circles appeared above his head. Then, the world went into chaos.
Tornadoes as large as the sun appeared, followed by tsunamis of the same size. The entire Star System shook as if a terrible Earthquake of unknown magnitude had hit it. Flames descended on the group as they were drops of rain. Volcano eruptions occurred everywhere.
As the name of the spell implied, it was an Armageddon of elemental devastation.
Edward calmly watched the group's reaction to his attack. Naruto tried to use Kamui and make his body intangible. Unfortunately, the Space Earthquake shook the surrounding dimension, reverting him back to normal. So, he had to use the Pulling Force from his Rinnegan to survive.
Tamat used Ki Blasts to destroy any elements in his way. Unfortunately, the intensity of the attack soon proved too much for her. So, she had to concentrate her Ki into a defensive shield.
Bai Li was in a worse situation since his defense seemed the weakest in the group. Luckily, he took numerous jades out of a ring in his hand and crushed them, generating a stable Shield Spell.
'These should be Talismans,' analyzed Edward. Talismans were the Cultivation System's version of Magic Scrolls. Anyone who holds it can use it, but they are only one-used items.
'Hmm, he's intact?' Edward soon realized Maav was not injured in the slightest. The latter was also using protective measures, but Edward could tell it was for the show since he did not have a single scratch on him.
Edward squinted his eyes as he analyzed the reason.
'The power of Dream. It should be a spell similar to Dorothy Unsworth.'
He learned Dream Magic from a Magic Captain back in Black Clover. And Maav's method was similar to hers.
A few minutes later, the spell ended, and only a few things remained in this Star System. 99% of the reincarnators' fleet was instantly annihilated. However, to Edward's surprise, a few managed to survive.
The planet with Tobias' group did not suffer because Edward protected it. Finally, it was the five of them.
"How did you guys like my favorite spell?" asked Edward with a smile. "Do you know this is only the first and weakest version? I added the elements of Lightning, Light, and Darkness for the second version.
"For the third version, I added Wood Elements and Metal Elements.
"And for the final version, space-time is used."
The four trembled. This spell was already horrifying. If it had the elements of lightning, darkness, light, wood, metal, and space-time, they could not fathom the destructive power it would generate.
