Bab 53: Massive Increase In Imu's Power
Does Imu have a high level of favorability toward Kaos?
Favorability value exists.
But it is definitely not at full value.
It is also impossible to reach full value.
After all, to put it bluntly, Imu is king.
And Kaos is the future king, but he is not a king yet.
The difference in status makes it impossible for Imu to fully favor Kaos.
But Imu longed to become stronger.
So, Imu used her own method to ensure that her favorability for Kaos reached full value.
That method was to give way.
To let Kaos become the new king!
Imu may not have high personal regard for Kaos, but her loyalty to the World Government is unwavering.
This loyalty is not to an individual but to the power of the World Government itself.
And once Kaos became the new king and Imu stepped down, the gap in their statuses could be reversed.
Most importantly, Imu's loyalty to the World Government would also partly transfer to Kaos.
When the two factors combine, the favorability value would naturally rise.
Imu has lived for hundreds of years, so naturally, she wouldn't be ashamed of such pragmatism.
After feeling the Conqueror's Haki emanating from Kaos, Imu displayed a stiff smile on her face, one that likely hadn't been used in a long time.
"King..."
"Don't!"
As soon as Imu began to speak, Kaos interrupted her, somewhat embarrassed. "Ancestor, although I have become the new king, you should still call me by my name. That's my order. How about it?"
When others called him king, Kaos could accept it.
But when it came to Imu, he simply couldn't.
It felt a little awkward.
Hearing this, Imu hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Kaos, now, I think I should be able to accept your blessing."
Kaos nodded.
Imu personally holding his hand and leading him to the throne, isn't it just for this moment?
Certainly, it was also because Kaos himself was destined to be the next king.
Taking a deep breath, Kaos no longer hesitated, his heart moved. "Give the last chance of blessing to Imu!"
As the thought settled, Imu instantly felt a change within herself.
In the past, her strength had almost hit a plateau, making even marginal improvements incredibly difficult.
But now, her strength was growing rapidly.
This growth brought a genuine smile to Imu's face—happy, excited, and exhilarated.
All kinds of emotions surfaced in her heart.
Then—
Boom!
A terrifying aura burst forth from Imu's body.
This was the aura of strength at the very pinnacle of this world.
And this aura was climbing crazily.
It was a presence that exceeded the world's boundaries.
At this moment, even Kaos felt a slight pressure.
It was evident that Imu's strength was incredibly formidable.
It could only be described as terrifying!
It was indeed fitting for Imu to be the cornerstone of the World Government.
This strength alone was enough to ensure the World Government's invincibility in this world.
Unless someone's strength could rival Imu's.
But now that Imu's power had become even stronger, with the potential for further growth, her position as the foundation of the World Government would only become more secure in the future.
Kaos couldn't help but show excitement in his eyes.
Imu, in Kaos's eyes, was his trump card.
The stronger Imu became, the stronger this trump card became.
And receiving this blessing also meant that betrayal from Imu was impossible!
Imu would be as loyal to Kaos as Stussy.
With such a powerful subordinate, how could Kaos not be excited?
The aura grew increasingly terrifying, overwhelming the entire Mariejois.
Under this momentum, many Celestial Dragons fainted on the spot, foaming at the mouth.
Meanwhile, in the conference room, the Five Elders, who had been discussing matters, suddenly stood up, their faces filled with shock.
"This aura..."
"It's Lord Imu!"
"What happened? Why has Lord Imu's aura exploded? And this aura—it's stronger than ever..."
"Even more terrifying than before. The most important thing is, it's still improving?!"
"Could this be related to Kaos?"
The Five Elders murmured, exchanged glances, and then, without hesitation, headed toward the Flower Chamber.
They needed to understand what was happening.
Meanwhile, the entire Mariejois was in turmoil because of the overwhelming momentum.
Hidden guards began to appear one after another, gathering outside the Flower Chamber to prevent any accidents.
These guards were dressed in white and black, wearing masks, each exuding a powerful presence.
The weakest among them was at least at Vice Admiral level.
These individuals represented the strongest forces of the World Government—absolute loyalists.
For the World Government, training Admiral-level individuals might be challenging, but producing Vice Admiral-level forces was not.
Within a short period, over a hundred Vice Admiral-level guards had gathered, each standing silently, ready to become killing machines at a moment's notice.
It wasn't until the Five Elders arrived that these guards dispersed and returned to the shadows, continuing their duty of safeguarding the World Government's interests.
The Five Elders entered the Flower Chamber.
When they found no sign of Imu, they raised their eyebrows before quickly heading deeper inside.
At the throne.
Gradually, the aura around Imu began to subside.
Subconsciously lowering her head to look at her hands, Imu clenched her fist and lightly waved it. The air seemed to tear apart.
A genuine smile rose on her face.
Her strength had improved!
Previously, when Imu's strength had reached its limit, it felt like being trapped under a barrier.
As long as she could break through that barrier, her strength would greatly increase.
But no matter how hard she tried, she could never break through.
Now, she had finally pierced through that barrier.
Just as she'd hoped, her strength saw a massive increase.
This increase was even more terrifying than what Stussy had experienced.
Because Imu's strength had been stagnant for centuries, all of the latent potential stored in her body was unleashed at once when the limit was broken, causing her strength to rapidly soar by a third.
This was terrifying.
To know Imu's strength was already immense.
Adding a third to such a foundation was almost unfathomable.
Even if Rocks were alive, he would likely be easily subdued by Imu.
