Chapter 810: Water of Disaster!
Marine Calendar 1503, January 30th.
In the Imperial Arms World, above the East Blue, there exists such an Island.
It was the former Imperial Navy Headquarters, originally with normal seasons, lush vegetation, and a large number of Warships anchored in the Port.
However, when the World Government conquered This World, Marine Admiral Aokiji came alone. First, he instantly froze the Imperial Navy Headquarters located at the edge of the Island.
Then, he fought a battle with Esdeath, who was still an Imperial Navy Admiral at the time.
This caused the Island, which was over 30,000 square kilometers in size, to become the Island of Eternal Winter, where heavy snow falls all year round and the Climate is cold.
However.
The Misfortune of this Island did not end there. Later, it became the place of fierce battles for nearly ten Admiral Level Combat Powers.
Under the combined assault of the Supreme Imperial Arm and Edward Newgate, not only was more than half of the land destroyed, but large and small circular pits and bottomless Rifts were also left behind.
The Environment on the Island also became the Island of Eternal Day, Ice and Fire, with two-thirds being an Ice and Snow World and one-third being several Active Volcanoes that never stop.
The reason it is called Eternal Day.
Is because ever since that great battle ended, there has been no Yoru Inland (on the island), it has always been so sunny and bright.
On the Sea Surface outside the Island, however, continuous Icebergs stand tall, and above them is a thick layer of Dark Clouds. Every moment, a biting Cold Wind and heavy snow are blowing.
Yet, despite being such a chaotic, terrifying, and extreme place, the constant flow of Ships of all sizes and the endless Flow of People make this Port, which faces the Empire Continent, incredibly lively and bustling.
Especially the Citizens heading Inland (on the island), every single one is wearing thick Winter Clothes, enduring the blowing Cold Wind and flying snow, steadily taking firm Footwork.
The end point of this long Flow of People, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Is the magnificent hall located in the center of the Island, standing on the Frozen Earth, yet with its back facing the lava lake.
This hall is entirely built of white Marble.
The Main Hall has a circular, golden and brilliant dome, and around it stand four tall white towers with pointed tops. The surface of the towers is carved with large Golden Heavenly Soaring Dragon's Hoofs.
When people line up to reach the Hall Door of the Main Hall, they need to wait for the people inside to come out first.
At this time, the Personnel on guard nearby will remind them that a maximum of ten people can enter at the same time.
When these ten Men, Women, Old and Young, of different Ages, attire, and Identities, take off their shoes and socks and walk barefoot into the Palace Hall given the low Temperature Environment.
They will find that the Ground is covered with a soft Red Carpet.
Following the Line of Sight along the Red Carpet, at the end directly ahead, stands a Golden Statue, about five meters high, clearly in Human Form, but without a specific Appearance.
And on the left and right sides of this Golden Statue, stand Giant God Soldier bronze statues nearly twenty meters high.
They wear full body Armor seemingly made of incredible earth, a wide Cape draped over their backs, and hold their respective giant Weapons in their hands. With extremely high skill and using large amounts of copper wire, they imitate the Forms of Lightning and Flame around their Bodies.
Giant God Soldier!
Looking up towards the ceiling, the view suddenly opens up.
The entire semi-circular ceiling is carved with colorful tones, depicting the magnificent Screen Feed of Noah's Ark slowly emerging from the 'Sky Gate', and the Golden Light Pillar reaching the heavens and earth enveloping the Dragon Transformation Supreme Imperial Arm, forcing it to kneel halfway and lower its head.
Looking at such a mythical and magnificent Screen Feed.
All ten people involuntarily knelt down on the white cushions, their faces full of piety, kowtowing and praying to the Golden Statue.
They did not know who they were facing, only that it was one of the 'World Noble' Celestial Dragons. Therefore, everyone tacitly agreed to regard it as the 'God of the Celestial Dragons'.
Now, many people of the Imperial Arms World have equated the Celestial Dragons with the divine race.
And this 'Celestial Gate Sanctuary' was jointly built by The Empire, Shen He, and Alchemy, and then the Peace Religion is responsible for its daily Management.
The Peace Religion used to only have Doctrine but no clear object of faith.
But Civilians who became Peace Religion followers would become better at enduring the Oppression and Suffering they experienced. This is why The Empire has never regarded it as an Evil Cult, but instead has repeatedly supported it from an official level.
But now it has an object of faith.
The Celestial Dragons.
The Empire's side could only reluctantly accept this.
After all, the World Government did not oppose the Peace Religion doing this, so they still had to openly provide support in various aspects.
"Celestial Gate Sanctuary..."
In a green Domain, Im floated at High Altitude, seeing everything below. Behind him was Noah's Ark, much larger than the entire Heavenly Gate Holy Island.
"Should I have someone engrave my image onto that Golden Statue?"
Im found this matter quite interesting. He really didn't expect that the first people to worship him were not people of the Sea Star World, but these people of the Imperial Arms World.
However, they flattered him quite well.
He was very happy.
He could consider allocating more Resources to This World from the World Government side.
The next second.
Im instantly disappeared, then appeared above Noah's Ark.
He just happened to see Doflamingo, who was fiercely battling with the Disaster Giant Brogy, Awakening his Devil Fruit Ability.
Only to see the open ground in the Plaza quickly turn into a white Line Sea, then under his control, transform into rolling purple-black waves, wrapping the tall Golden Giant.
Wild Wave White Line!
"His Haki Level has improved quite a bit."
Im didn't pay too much attention to the Awakening of the String-String Fruit. Instead, he commented lightly on Doflamingo's Haki.
"But that's my Giant God Soldier..."
Roar!
As expected, with a deafening Roar, a crimson Giant Beast with eight ferocious snake heads, Accompanied By surging Black Water waves, forcibly broke free from the restraint of the Line Sea.
Doflamingo's expression turned ashen as he watched his white lines being corroded by the Black Water at a speed visible to the naked eye.
But Brogy, who had transformed into 'Yamata no Orochi', didn't give him time to speak. From the mouths of four of the snake heads, suddenly sprayed out High-Pressure Water carrying thick Black Mist.
"Shield White Line!"
Doflamingo spread his arms, then quickly waved them in front of him. Two giant white pillars nearly five meters wide immediately emerged from the ground around him, blocking all the Black Water in a crossed shape.
But after only a few seconds, the white pillars were also corroded into a puddle of grey-black Mud.
This is the Devil Fruit Ability developed by Brogy by imitating Heimalin's Black Mist, named Water of Disaster, abbreviated as 'Calamity Water'. It possesses corrosiveness comparable to strong acid and a polluting nature capable of making the Earth barren.
In these past days, Doflamingo had experienced the terror of this 'Calamity Water' countless times.
But in order to defeat the opponent as quickly as possible, he could only brace himself and fight with this Monster again and again.
A Giant Tribe member who could use Life Return and Six Powers ate a Mythical Zoan-type Devil Fruit, coupled with the enhancement of Armament Haki and Observation Haki.
If this isn't a Monster, what else could it be called?
What was most Despair-inducing was that Lord Imu unexpectedly told him that if he could fight one against three and win the battle, he would be very happy.
What does this mean?
Although he could also defeat the three Giant God Soldiers successively, since Lord Imu said so, what else could he do?
"Not bad, it seems it won't be long before he can reach Admiral Level Combat Power."
Seeing Doflamingo's Effort, Im was also very satisfied. He immediately turned around, disappeared into the air again, and returned to his Study Room.
Not long after.
Stussy came and reported softly, looking at the notebook in her hand.
"Lord Imu, Admiral Kizaru from the Air Force Headquarters has already suppressed the Elf Kingdom in the Zero Magic World and will be stationed there next."
"In addition, the Sea Ninja Village side has already prepared the Ninja Unit for Detection in the Ninja World. They are currently on their way to the Titan World and have now arrived at the Second Special Zone in the Demon Slayer World."
