As if he didn't really want to fight with William, the short tree never launched an attack. Instead, he kept chatting with William.
After mentioning the truth again, William found that its tone became fanatical.
At the same time, the black mist around it became thicker, and the color of knowledge that had been released outside was suppressed to the point where it was almost impossible to leave the body!
"Can you talk to me about the 'truth' in your words? I am indeed a little curious."
William glanced at it and saw that Im outside seemed to be being beaten violently by Kaidoo, which made William very satisfied with Kaidoo.
['Truth' first appeared nine hundred years ago in the ancient kingdom... Sorry, it's been so long that I can't remember the name of that kingdom. After all, "I" didn't exist at that time.
Generate wisdom.
The first time I saw "truth" was when someone stirred up time and space. At that time, "I" was in contact with a person whose body was devoured by the will of the devil.
Because of the fluctuations in time and space, that person was defeated by the "devil", and finally was gradually devoured by the "devil" in front of me. At that moment, "I" had a lot of insights.
I think that is the 'truth' hidden under the mask of the 'devil'!
The second time I saw the ‘truth’ was in the Red Earth Continent. I didn’t know why I ran there, but a person who had also seen the ‘truth’ invited me to build a country to search for the ‘truth’.
I agreed, and the world government was established.
He revealed his research on ‘truth’ to “me”, and then “me” was born!
Later, with the help of the devil's power, he reached the same state of immortality as "me".
We have been searching for "truth" for eight hundred years, but "truth" has never appeared again since then.】
The short tree talked for a long time, but most of it was nonsense.
William frowned. If he extracted the main part of the sentence correctly, there were only three important pieces of information in this long paragraph!
That time fluctuation at the time was most likely the "Mrs. Time" traveling through time and space, but now that Kozuki Toki is dead, there is no way to find out what happened back then.
The second point is that Im invited the dwarf tree, the devil fruit tree, to establish a world government on the Red Earth Continent. At that time, the huge kingdom should have been destroyed.
The third point is that the guy in front of me is not the person who got involved with Im in the first place.
The enemy in front of us now is more like a special life form like the Jailer Beast or the Demon King of Song in the Space of Utage. The human who ate the Emotion Fruit back then has long since died, and was replaced by the "Emotion Fruit"
!
Relying on its special "identity" and the ability to absorb emotions, it turned itself into a "Devil Fruit Tree" and controlled the existence of Devil Fruit from the root.
According to Vegapunk's research, the emergence of Devil Fruit actually stems from human beings' longing and desire for the unknown, just like someone who desires to become a dragon, and has the Blue Dragon Fruit.
Some people desire to master the power of the soul, so the Soul Soul Fruit appears.
These desires, which are also "emotions" in a sense, are also absorbed and manipulated by the dwarf tree.
Im has survived to this day by relying on the power of the surgical fruit, while Dwarf has lived for eight hundred years by relying on his own special life form and ability to absorb emotions.
Without him or Nika's appearance, these two guys secretly support the World Government, and it can continue for at least eight hundred years!
"Listen to what you said, what you call truth is actually a product of consciousness that is higher than human life, right? I really feel sad for you. If you don't do good things, you have to make yourself a human being and a ghost.
Damn it."
William twitched his lips disdainfully, "Now you are like a lost dog. You licked two mouthfuls of sand and thought you had eaten some delicious food!"
The weak are controlled by the fruit, and the strong control the fruit. Obviously, the devil fruit tree in front of me, which looks very strong and has a high style, is just a complete loser.
[Arrogant! How dare you insult ‘truth’ like this! 】
The black mist shook rapidly, as if it was the end of the world, and dozens of root tentacles tightly sealed the space around William like a giant python!
【Use your life to pray for the forgiveness of ‘truth’! 】
Looking at the crazy tentacles around him, a sneer appeared on the corner of William's mouth.
"Just in time, I've been thinking about when I can try this trick of mine. Let's try it on you today!"
William raised his hand, and a bright golden light gathered on his right fist. The unparalleled divinity shrouded his body, directly dispelling the surrounding black mist.
【How can it be!】
The short tree was angry. It couldn't imagine that its attack couldn't work, but now this man actually exuded power that made it scared.
"Let me tell you, poor fellow, that there is only one truth in this world!"
William waved his arms slowly, his expression extremely calm, "That is, a big fist means the truth!"
"Noah Hellfire!"
boom!
As William swung his fist, a golden light directly penetrated the body of the dwarf tree, and the terrifying high temperature instantly burned the trunk and even the roots of the dwarf tree clean.
The short tree didn't even make any resistance before being killed by William with one punch.
That terrifying enemy, which was enough to wipe out the entire naval headquarters and even the revolutionary army, couldn't even get past William with a single punch.
Of course, this is not because William's strength has reached the level of destroying the world with one punch, but because Noah Hellfire itself has divinity and part of the power of judgment, plus William is still in Noah Hellfire.
Added Overlord Color Entanglement, Armed Color Internal Destruction, and Special Skill Justice.
Under the multiple increases, the dwarf tree was unable to resist at all, and could only leave behind an unwilling roar of "No..." before withdrawing from the stage of history.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! William looked at the black fog that began to dissipate around him. He quickly stepped forward and placed one hand on the body of the short tree.
Because the light penetrated directly through it, the body of the dwarf tree still retains a certain high temperature.
"Replacement!"
William chose to replace the dwarf tree without hesitation. This thing was a Devil Fruit "cultivated" into an essence. It not only had human components, but also Devil Fruit components, and even Devil Fruit tree components.
With the many components superimposed, William cannot guarantee whether the dwarf tree will regenerate after the emotional fruit is reborn, so it is better to replace it directly!
"Ding, the replacement of the special life form, Wuming, is being replaced..."
The Skill Master system is still powerful. Although even it cannot identify the specific composition of the dwarf tree, it does not prevent it from treating the dwarf tree as a replaceable object.
As long as the replacement can be carried out, William has nothing to worry about.
"Ding, the replacement is successful. Congratulations to the owner for obtaining the skill: The Power of Jörmungandr."
"The power of Jörmungandr: the divine power derived from the Norse mythology [the giant snake surrounding the atrium]. After using it, you can gain the power of Jörmungandr that has been modified by unknown power."
Looking at his arms that were gradually covered with scales, William felt an unprecedented sense of comfort. Although he didn't know why the dwarf tree replaced Jörmungandr's power, the feeling of transforming from a human to a god was really good!
Originally, the Immortal Thief of Liuku was already developing William from a human to an immortal, but now, relying on the Skill Master System, William reached the sky in one step and successfully transformed into a mortal.
In terms of gains alone, the gains this time are even greater than obtaining the Moment of Holy Judgment and Noah Hellfire.
After all, the Moment of Holy Judgment and Noah Hellfire only gave William a powerful skill, but the power of Jörmungandr turned William directly from a human into a legendary god, so far that the skills
All the master's replaced skills combined are no more than a scale in the face of the power of Jörmungandr!
"But I'm afraid I can't be considered a human being now, right?"
William tilted his head slightly. He could feel that if he wanted to, he could transform into a terrifying giant python at any time, and even the entire world could be contained within it.
"Forget it, just think of it as eating a Phantom Beast Devil Fruit. It doesn't matter."
After shaking his body slightly, the beautiful and addictive scales on his arms disappeared.
Although the level of life has reached an incredible level in an instant, and the world is no longer foggy in William's eyes, William is still essentially a human being!
Outside the void, an Ouroboros is slowly turning its body. In its body, countless stars are slowly being created and destroyed.
Every time it turns, the body of Ouroboros expands by one point, and as the body of William, the strength or vitality increases by one point!
This is an ability that comes with the power of Jörmungandr through the magic modification of the system, called Godhead!
The divine structure is established, the divine kingdom emerges, the divine fire burns, and the divine soul is immortal!
Even if there is no surgical fruit, even if there is no pure gold, William is now immortal. Telling this will probably make countless people shed tears of envy and jealousy.
"It's time to go out."
Through the remaining black mist after the death of the short tree, William saw Garp resisting Im, and Nami, who had lost her lovely body and was forcibly rescued by Robin, with an intoxicating smile on his lips.
Robin's ability to use Devil Fruit was also within William's expectation. After all, Nika's existence form is similar to a dwarf tree, except that it is freer and more peaceful than a dwarf tree.
Therefore, it is normal for Robin to barely break free from the shackles of the tree with Luffy's help.
The most important thing is that the short tree was punched to death by William!
There is no such thing as a three-hundred-round fight, or a ten-day-and-ten-night fight. It can be done with just one punch!
When the dwarf tree dies, the tentacles that control those with devil fruit abilities will naturally disappear, and their abilities will naturally return.
"I wonder what Im would think when he sees me now."
No matter what he becomes, for now, this is his home!
With a gentle wave of his hand, the black fog gradually dissipated.
"...The reason why we don't want people to study ancient history is because the historical text left by the people of that kingdom has the possibility for people to understand the [truth] that destroyed the world."
In the battlefield, Im was still talking loudly about the 'truth' he admired, but he suddenly didn't know that his old friend had completely disappeared from this world.
"[Truth]? You have lived for eight hundred years, don't you still know it? Only with big fists can you say [Truth]."
With light steps, William walked slowly out of the dark fog with his hands in his pockets. The intoxicating smile on his lips completely stunned Dasqi and Guina who were nearest.
"you······"
The moment Im saw William, it was as if he had a glimpse of something and saw the 'truth' for the first time nine hundred years ago. The explosion of knowledge and the shock to his soul made him feel weak all over.
At the same time, Im can clearly feel that his body is constantly collapsing. This is a reaction that occurs when he encounters an existence far beyond his life level!
There was a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth, and Im's eyes were full of madness.
He worked hard for eight hundred years, but in the end, he was surpassed in life level by a kid who lived less than twenty years old!
No matter who you put this on, it will make people crazy!
"Thunder!"
When you are crazy, any action you take is understandable!
Im raised his hands, the colorful light trembled, and the light on his chest turned into a white sphere again.
This time, he failed to attract the world-destroying thunder!
"This world is so big that even if you have studied it for eight hundred years, you can only see a small part. We are no longer on the same level. Rest in peace, Im."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! William took a step forward and appeared in front of Im in an instant.
In Im's desperate eyes, the white ball of light on his chest was like a child seeing his father, flashing with joy and jumping into William's hand.
Then William waved his hand gently, and the ball of light passed through the space and came to Nami in the sky.
Under Im's vicious eyes, Nami stretched out her hand and touched the ball of light, and a memory instantly filled her brain!
Betrayed by [King of Heaven] Ouranos, Im's momentum dropped to a low point.
The three ancient weapons, this is actually what the world government claims to the outside world. In fact, the three ancient weapons are all life-saving measures created by the huge ancient kingdoms to fight against the crisis of annihilation.
Hundreds of years ago, floods fell from the sky, sea levels continued to rise, and the originally infinite continent turned into a vast ocean.
In order to find a way to break the situation, the huge ancient kingdom created three ancient weapons.
[Pluto] who can destroy all obstacles, [Pluto] who can command the Neptune class and drag the "ark" that carries all hope, and finally [King of Heaven] who can restore the peace of the world.
Only people with impure hearts will use these three tools of salvation in war.
"It's over, Im."
Looking at the devastated Holy Land, William found that he did not sense any other life besides the people on the battlefield. After thinking for a moment, he couldn't help but shake his head in amusement.
Those Celestial Dragons are really the descendants of "gods".
No wonder the World Government is so protective of the Celestial Dragons. If they were all dead, it would be inconvenient for Dwarf to move around.
Their existence, in addition to creating panic and collecting negative emotions for the dwarf tree, also serves as "nutrition" for the dwarf tree's actions. They really deserve it!
