Chapter 1328
Chapter 1306: Im is Not Interested in the Lord of the Underworld! (Two-in-One)
The magnificent crystal chandelier emitted a gentle radiance.
A piano piece titled 'Azure Sky' played melodiously in the air.
The captivating aromas filling the air made one feel as if they were in a fragrant garden.
A spotless white tablecloth covered the long dining table.
Im was having a meal with Historia and Esdeath.
The Ubuyashiki Four Sisters, dressed in dark purple kimonos and wearing wooden clogs, served them meticulously.
Whenever the three finished the food on their plates, they would take the plates away and bring freshly prepared dishes from Thatch, placing them gently on the table.
If they saw a drink in a glass running low, they would first softly ask if they wanted a refill or a change.
Thatch, in his red and white chef uniform, precisely completed dish after dish, perfect in color, aroma, and taste, according to the menu he had set in his mind, matching the eating speed of Im and the two empresses.
The ingredients he used were almost all incredibly expensive in the outside world, or even rare items that were priceless.
Lord Imu's drink was Golden Taro Wine.
Empress Historia's was Dragon Amber Wine, and Empress Esdeath's was Fire Dragon Whiskey.
The appetizer was Soul Caviar paired with Bite Fish Liver Paste, followed by soup made from Emperor Pine Spirit and Emperor Giant Fire Rooster Meat Stew.
The side dishes were Horned Dragon Heart and Female Fire Dragon Egg Custard.
And the main course was Ice Fang Dragon Tail Meat paired with seven-colored bell peppers.
There were also various exotic fruits on the table, such as Emerald Durian, Paradise Berry, and Hot Mango.
These ingredients clearly came from the Imperial Arms World.
The Danger Beasts of the Imperial Arms World, with their various forms and meat textures, as well as the various strange vegetables and fruits, made it the world most valued by the Sea Star Chef Association.
As for why Thatch came here to be a chef.
Of course, it was because Im valued his identity as a Special Grade Chef.
Back when he watched "Cooking Master Boy", he didn't know how many times he had yearned to taste the cuisine of Liu Mao Xing and Lan Fei Hong.
Although Thatch wasn't them, his skill wasn't bad, and crucially, that uniform was a big bonus.
Just a glance made Im feel very good.
And for Thatch, since Old Man was joining the Army as an Admiral, there was no need for him to continue staying on Sphinx Island.
He had originally planned to go to Spring Queen Island to continue researching cooking skill at the Chef Association Headquarters.
Who knew he would receive an order to be a chef for a Celestial Dragon.
He was somewhat unwilling but didn't dare to refuse directly, so he could only discuss it with Old Man first.
But when Old Man heard that the Celestial Dragon was named 'Nerona Imu Saint'.
He first showed a look of astonishment, then his face was full of delight, and he immediately agreed.
He also took him to a secret room and revealed Lord Imu's true identity to him.
In Edward Newgate's view, it was an immense wealth and opportunity for his 'son' to be able to follow Im.
Lord Imu's personal chef, this identity alone was enough for a lifetime without worries.
After listening, Thatch was completely dumbfounded.
The creator of the World Government, the owner of the Empty Throne, the actual leader of the Sea Star Civilization.
The Star Gates he controlled were the root cause that led the World Government onto the paths of multiverse conquest in recent years.
He could be said to be the god of the Celestial Dragons in the true sense!
The person who defeated 'Old Man' with a single strike back then was this Lord Imu.
"Father, I'm here!"
Just as Im was listening to music and tasting the delicious food, a lively and pleasant female voice suddenly rang out.
A black-and-purple energy gate appeared out of thin air beside the dining table, and Little Enma in loli form walked out from it.
As soon as she appeared, she cheered and leaped for joy, attempting to pounce into Im's embrace, but she was instantly controlled by some invisible force, then slowly landed on a nearby chair.
Im took a sip of the golden liquid in his wine glass and said calmly, "You try some too."
At the same time.
Ubuyashiki Hinaki walked up to Thatch and notified him in a low voice to prepare a full set of dishes for Little Enma.
Nichika Ubuyashiki poured a glass of Golden Taro Wine and placed it in front of Little Enma.
As for Little Enma's arrival, Historia and Esdeath were a bit depressed.
Every time Little Enma kept saying 'Father'.
They would always think that they hadn't given birth to a child for Im yet.
At first, they felt a bit strange, after such a long time, logically speaking, they should have by now.
But later they learned that Im had no intention of having children, at least for now.
"Okay, Father!"
Little Enma swung her short, white legs and replied with a face full of smiles.
At the same time, she picked up her wine glass and tasted the magical taste of the Golden Taro Wine.
"Wow, it's really delicious, and it's so fragrant, so sweet, the texture is surprisingly refreshing to this extent!"
Little Enma exclaimed while savoring the taste.
"The reason I called you here this time is to ask about the situation regarding the Netherworld."
Im didn't avoid others; they already knew about the matters of the Netherworld.
Little Enma didn't respond, patiently waiting for Father's inquiry.
Im asked, "How is the Netherworld in the Beast God World?"
As soon as the Star Gate to this world opened, the ninja below had already captured a few living persons and brought them to the Titan World for secret execution.
They didn't know why this was, but as ninja, they were accustomed to executing unclear orders.
Even the small ninja village before had so many secrets and conspiracies.
This World Government, so vast in scale that it's terrifying, must have countless secrets and darkness.
On Little Enma's side, she obtained the 'Soul Coordinate'.
She immediately dispatched a team to travel by Underworld Boat to find the 'Beast God Netherworld' and investigate the situation there.
Finally, it was confirmed that it was another 'ownerless Netherworld'.
Apart from the tens of thousands of souls wandering freely in the wasteland, waiting for reincarnation, there were simply no large organized forces.
There were some small ones, though.
According to the investigation, these were all forces formed by Pseudo-Divine Weapons who died in recent years, each gathering a group of souls.
However, because they all came from the same troops when they were alive, they knew each other more or less.
So there weren't any intense conflicts, and they could even be called united and friendly.
But in Little Enma's view, this bit of feelings would gradually disappear as time passes and various matters happen.
One day in the future, they will definitely attack each other and expand their territory.
Until a strongest is decided to become the Lord of the Underworld.
Because this is what the 'Will of the Underworld' hopes for.
It will definitely intentionally or unintentionally influence these 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon souls'.
However, since the World Government has appeared, many things will change.
Little Enma smiled and said, "Vice Admiral Blande of the Underworld Army Headquarters is leading the troops to conquer the 'Beast God Netherworld', and it shouldn't take long before he can take over."
"Hmm, look for a woman named Eleyne Blureck and a 'Pseudo-Divine Weapon' named William Bancroft. His form is an orange-red giant dragon called 'Nidhogg'."
Im felt that since these two died less than half a year ago, their souls should still be in the Netherworld.
Speaking of which, the code names of these 'Pseudo-Divine Weapons' are really exaggerated enough, even though their abilities aren't that great.
But when Vegapunk uses their lineage factors to create corresponding Devil Fruits.
Their abilities in all aspects should improve significantly.
At that time, it's estimated to be the Animal System Lizard Fruit Mythical Zoan Nidhogg Form.
He wondered how different it is from the Mythical Zoan Fire Dragon Fruit that Longinus ate.
"Nidhogg? Eleyne?"
Little Enma was stunned for a moment. "I saw these two names in the intelligence reported back by the subordinates."
"Oh?" Im raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it."
Historia and Esdeath also cast curious gazes.
Although they didn't quite understand, it was fine to listen to it as a story, after all, it's about the Netherworld.
"'Nidhogg' established a 'Schaal Church' there, specifically adopting young souls, letting them wait for reincarnation in peace to avoid being devoured by the evil spirits outside."
"Moreover, he is the only Pseudo-Divine Weapon unwilling to resist the World Government, so I had a slight understanding of him before."
"Through contact with the subordinates, 'Nidhogg' stated that he already detests war. As long as we don't harm the children, he is very willing to accept the World Government's rule."
Little Enma slowly recounted the information she knew.
"He sounds like a very kind priest," Historia smiled gently.
"Hmph, detesting war, avoiding war, this is a coward. Overprotecting the children is also harming them."
Esdeath, however, scoffed.
"The correct approach is to teach them combat, to have the ability to protect themselves."
Historia maintained her smile and didn't argue with her.
After having been together for so long, she also knew what kind of personality the other person had.
Im's focus, however, wasn't on 'Nidhogg'. "So the other Pseudo-Divine Weapons are all resisting?"
"Yes, the other Pseudo-Divine Weapons, with 'Saint Eleyne' as their core, are leading a large number of souls to resist Vice Admiral Blande's troops, claiming to protect 'Patria's Soul Haven'."
Im heard this and wasn't surprised at all.
The World Government is inherently the invader; it's normal to be counterattacked and obstructed by them.
After defeating them, then reason with them and talk about the benefits of joining the World Government, it won't be too late.
After Im swallowed a piece of Ice Fang Dragon Tail Meat, he gave instructions.
"Try to capture alive those Pseudo-Divine Weapons as much as possible. Afterward, if any are willing to surrender, incorporate them into the Underworld Army."
"Bring Eleyne and 'Nidhogg' to the Sea Star Underworld. We are preparing to resurrect them here."
Little Enma was confused why these two needed to be resurrected. The frontline intelligence didn't say they had much strength.
Seeing this, Im briefly explained the reason.
"Oh—so that's how it is, I understand, Father!" Little Enma suddenly understood.
The technology of Pseudo-Divine Weapons, the function of Dream Ore, and the ability of the Saint indeed have considerable value.
"To resurrect her father, she 'borrowed' her future, truly enviable father-daughter affection..."
Historia, who had never seen her father and was also an illegitimate daughter, was very moved after hearing Schaal's story. She somewhat wanted to meet this girl.
Esdeath opposite her, however, had no reaction.
Although her family and clansmen were not massacred by the Northern Foreign Tribes as in the 'canon'.
But the Baltars Tribe, known as 'Hunters', have deeply ingrained the idea of survival of the fittest, and their attitude towards familial affection is even colder.
They nurture children purely to continue the tribe and cultivate excellent warriors.
In Esdeath's view, if her father died, and was killed by someone, there is absolutely no need for resurrection.
But she would avenge her father and kill the entire family of the enemy.
"How is the situation in the Imperial Arms Underworld?"
Im stopped mentioning the 'Beast God World'.
For him, since this matter has been ordered, it's considered finished, and the rest will be handled by Little Enma and others.
However, regarding the upcoming 'Dream Ore', he still held some curiosity.
A golden crystal emitting seven-colored radiance, just its appearance makes it very suitable for collection.
Furthermore, 'Dream Ore' can be used as a very easy-to-utilize and efficient 'energy'.
This reminded Im of the 'Crystal Ore' in 'StarCraft', and it's Dark Gold!
Speaking of which, isn't the Iceburst Stone in the Titan World 'High-Energy Gas'?
"Imperial Arms Underworld... I'm sorry, Bone Dragon Admiral hasn't taken down Destarugul yet, but he has already occupied two-thirds of the territory."
Little Enma was a bit embarrassed. She also didn't expect that 'Super Dangerous Beast Destarugul' would be so difficult to defeat.
Bowen Knohen was the former Highest Officer of CIPHER POL - AIGIS 0.
Although he lost his Paramecia System Bone-Bone Fruit ability, with the help of the Biochemical Research Institute, he gained the Shikotsumyaku Bloodline Limit.
Crucially, Haki, martial arts, swordsmanship, combat experience, these were not affected, and his strength can still be called Admiral level combat power.
It shows how troublesome Destarugul is. Besides that, there are also other powerful Danger Beast undead.
For example, the 'Bone Dragon', which originally only existed in the myths of the Imperial Arms World, known by names like 'Bone Dragon', 'Corpse of Two Heads', and 'Demon Star of Naraka', as well as the 'Abyssal Dragon', called the 'Abyssal Demon'.
These two are ancient dragons who died countless years ago and came to the Netherworld.
Although they are Special-Grade Danger Beasts, over the years they have devoured countless souls, and their strength has long surpassed that of ordinary Special-Grade Danger Beasts.
Fleet Admiral Jiang Xia and Bone Dragon Admiral evaluated them as beings possessing Admiral level combat power.
Their existence makes it difficult for the Underworld Army to occupy the remaining one-third of the Imperial Arms Underworld.
Fortunately, Mars, whom Im left for Little Enma before, can hold back one of them, alleviating considerable pressure.
That is the Death Knight who was the Former God of War and Madness in the Falmart World.
Little Enma was worried Im would be displeased and immediately said:
"Father, I've recently considered having Fleet Admiral Jiang Shou make a trip and team up with Bone Dragon Admiral to deal with it!"
This topic piqued Esdeath's interest, and her gaze instantly lit up.
She just likes anything related to war.
The war in the Netherworld naturally sounds even more interesting.
"No need. Since he is a Fleet Admiral, he shouldn't easily make a move. Let Bowen handle it himself..."
As he spoke, Im stopped speaking, because he had a new idea.
Im's clone is just about ready. How about sending it over to test its quality?
He then said it out loud, which made Little Enma, Esdeath, Historia, and the others a bit confused.
"Lord Imu's clone?"
"Hmm, Im plans to transfer the 'Lord of the Sea Star Underworld' to this clone. If everything goes smoothly, then he will stay in the Netherworld for a long time from now on."
"Little Enma, if you have something, you can directly talk to him, no need to travel back and forth frequently, because he is Im. However..."
"Strictly speaking, he is the clone of Im's main body's clone..."
Im thought for a moment and finally added this sentence.
He felt that the statement 'I am a clone' is still quite useful for now.
"Father, are you looking down on the strength of the 'Lord of the Underworld'?"
Little Enma covered her mouth and looked at Im in shock.
Transferring the 'Lord of the Underworld' to his own clone, isn't that looking down on it?
This is the 'Lord of the Sea Star Underworld'!
The Sea Star Underworld will definitely become bigger and bigger in the future, and the divine power it generates is hard to estimate.
"Hmm?"
Im was startled in his heart.
He just felt that the 'Faith God Path' wasn't suitable for him, and wasn't interested in investing too much energy into the Netherworld.
So he thought of creating a clone to help him take on these things.
As for looking down on it, how could that be?
He's not stupid; of course, he could see the value of the 'Lord of the Sea Star Underworld'.
However, cough cough...
"Indeed, compared to death, souls, and the Netherworld, Im is more interested in controlling the universe and domain of this material realm."
Im's gaze was completely calm, seeming more concerned with the taste of the Ice Fang Dragon Tail Meat on his plate.
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire place fell into dead silence.
Even Thatch, who was roasting Ice Fang Dragon Tail Meat for Little Enma in the distance, was dumbfounded.
"However, Im also has no intention of giving up on the former. This is the meaning behind manufacturing clones."
"Just like Im's main body is obsessed with the exploration of the starry sky and higher dimensions, so he manufactured this clone, Im, to manage the outside World Government on his behalf..."
After speaking, Im poured the remaining golden liquid in the wine glass completely into his mouth and drank it all in one gulp.
