Bab 96: One Step
"... Vice Admiral Garp, what happened?"
The Marine soldiers were shocked upon seeing this scene. The whole town wreckage was actually absorbed into the scroll on Garp's hand at this moment!
Unbelievable, really incredible...
At this moment, Garp was looking at the scroll in his hand. It depicted the Pig Cage Town that he saw earlier, and there were many people in it.
Some of them were washing clothes and cooking in the scroll, while others were doing other physical labors. It was an ancient painting that was full of life...
Garp looked at the painting and became more and more surprised. Could it be that the Pig Cage Town he saw before was this painting? The people he saw were actually people in the painting?
But why did such a situation occur?
From what the government official said, Pig Cage Town was built in the mountains a long time ago in order to avoid the war. When Garp talked to them earlier, he also sympathized with the hardships they had faced, but now...
It was really strange. What was this painting? It actually had such a magical power?
Garp carefully analyzed this painting. The more he looked at it, the more engrossed he became. He thought he heard something, but unfortunately, it turned out to be nothing in the end.
At this time, he was really envious of Roger, who was so good at Color of Observation Haki that he had the Voice of All Things.
Garp sighed and was about to put the painting away. When he left that place to analyse the painting further, a sentence suddenly appeared on the painting.
'One step away from sin, one step is a lotus'
The moment this sentence appeared, it was as if the entire painting had become much darker, and the sentence alone was bright.
Garp read the sentence and suddenly felt puzzled. It sounded like something related to the Buddhist saying. It might be better to leave it to Sengoku later.
This magical painting naturally couldn't just appear out of thin air.
Among the three Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments that Genichi recently pulled, one of them was embedded in this painting.
In addition to making living beings stronger, Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments could also be embedded to items, giving it magical abilities.
For example, if it could be embedded to the ink, allowing anything drawn using the ink to come to life. Genichi embedded it to the painting for the same reason.
At this moment, Genichi had already gained a lot of Negative Emotion Points from the series of events in the last few days. Even when Garp was still chasing Bullet, he already had more than 8.2 million Negative Emotion Points. As time passed and more things happened he had now accumulated more than 9 million Negative Emotion Points.
Just a little bit more...
Just a little bit more and he would be able to reach 10 million Negative Emotion Points. At that time, he would pull another 10 million-worth Character Card. He would be able to devise more plans based on the Character Card he got.
After all, he had decided that this 10 million-worth character would later be the Demon Lord. That character had to be extremely powerful. Right now, he couldn't devise any plan yet, because he still did not know which character he would get.
Therefore, he had no choice but to wait until he had enough Negative Emotion Point before devising a plan.
Because of that, Shaji did not say much about the current situation to Sengoku in the Ice Capital.
Instead, he said something related to Tunfo!
"It has been at least several thousand years since demons and wizards rule this world."
In Ice Capital, the traces of the war had been covered by snow. The military barracks had been empty at this moment. No one wanted to stay at that place. After witnessing what Shaji did, everyone felt primal fear.
At this moment, Shaji sat on a chair as he looked at Sengoku and Sing who came from the south.
"At that time, this world was divided into the human realm and the demon realm. Humans and wizards lived in the human world, whereas the demon was in the demon realm. I don't know what happened. Maybe it's the wizards' doing, but in short, the demon world was suddenly struck by a bolt of lightning."
"That bolt of lightning directly tore the demon realm apart, but at that time, the Demon Lords didn't care about this at all, because they would never die."
As a listener, Sengoku listened to Shaji as he talked about the demon. This was very important information.
"However, just as the demon world was on the verge of destruction and countless demons died, a person appeared."
"A human?" Sengoku raised his eyebrows.
"It is a human, but it is also a demon." Shaji said in a low voice, "Before the whole incident, he was a human, but then he became a demon because he used his power to keep the Demon Realm from collapsing and stitched it back up to this world. Eventually, he became the eighth Demon Lord in the Demon Realm due to his astonishing strength and wisdom!"
"... Is it the same case Toguro who wants to become a demon?" Sengoku couldn't help but think of the famous half-demon. His strength was definitely up there, and he had been tracking Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments in order to turn himself into a demon.
Was it the same case as the person that Shaji just talked about?
"No, he is born both a demon and a human."
Shaji leaned back slightly. His right leg was placed on his left leg. He said, "He was born with a human body, but he was also born with the mind possessed by a demon. His origin has always been a mystery. No one knows what his real name is. Even his later subordinates only call him..."
"Meitian!"
"... What a strange name. " Sengoku frowned. He looked at Shaji who seeemingly reminisced about the past and said, "So, Tunfo is Meitian's subordinate? Then it will be troublesome. If such a monster appears and he works together with Zero ..."
It was hard to imagine that Meitian managed to keep the Demon Realm from falling apart. Although Sengoku did not know how big the Devil Realm was, since it could be compared with the human world, it should not be small.
Just how strong this Meitian was to be able to accomplish such a feat?
However, Sengoku did not care much about this folklore. There was no guarantee that it was true.
There was only one question that he wanted to ask the most now...
Sengoku looked at Shaji and finally said his question.
"What is the relationship between him and Indra?"
