[The future] cannot be discerned, and [the past] is both [the present].
Their time has not changed, so rewinding and fast-forwarding at the same time are the same to them, without any difference.
Indecision, quantum mechanics.
Whether something happens requires observation
If it is not observed, then it is in a chaotic state of reasonable and unreasonable between happening and not happening.
"Do you still remember what Shi Fu Rao's ability is?"
At this time, Lovett suddenly asked.
Kaido was stunned again: "The Time Fruit allowed me to travel eight hundred years and come to her future and our present... Hey, what are you doing here?"
"Baqiya Road."
Lovett sighed: "Do you think the government chose to cooperate with you to purchase arms and weapons because it was really reluctant to bear the labor costs?"
"If my guess is correct, he has actually known for a long time that the children left behind by Mrs. Shi have restrained him, so after you helped that useless snake successfully usurp the country, he contacted you in the name of maintaining the Hailou Stone trade, and then he fell in love with you.
Keep trading your arms and weapons, and monitor Oden Castle."
Kaido was silent.
indeed.
But the actual situation is the other way around. Knowing that he wanted to usurp the country, the World Government contacted him in advance in the name of being interested in his arms and weapons.
But that situation is even more pervasive!
At this time, Lovett continued: "Don't you think Mrs. Shi's abilities are very similar to those I speculated about Im's abilities? They are both moving forward."
"Is it difficult...could it be..."
"Yes, that's it..."
Lovett smiled: "Lord Im, you are the time fruit ability user after Mrs. Shi! And you also have the ability to travel through time and reach the future like Mrs. Shi!"
Im's pupils were shaking and he said nothing.
"Unfortunately, the prophecy says that the gods will fall."
"So you have to stay in the present and change the future. Otherwise, if you travel to the past, you will only face a timeline that you resist and refuse to read, even if you continue to pay attention to the sea for eight hundred years and extinguish the lights one by one."
"And the reason why you can't go back, Master Im, is because Mrs. Shi has a panoramic view of the future. Under the interference of the previous time fruit, she saw the [future], observed and determined the [future]. If she wants to change,
We can only start from the source again and leave [the future] in a state of chaos..."
"So you killed her with Kaido's hand, and then immediately took back the Time Fruit, only to find that her son and daughter were missing. Not only that, but several retainers were even sealed in the cracks of time.
"Zheng"
"Time is a special power. Perhaps for the person involved, it only lasts for a moment, and its power dissipates after death, which is consistent with the theorem of Devil Fruit."
"But for us living in that [moment] now, it is contradictory."
"So the answer hasn't changed. It's still Hiroyuki Kozuki and his family who restrain Im's power of time. Their chaotic timelines connect the past and present like a sewing machine, like two long snakes chasing each other. The latter is chasing each other.
The former, every second that passes, will occupy one second of time that Im can reverse. They must be eliminated first to completely disable the fruit's ability."
"And that time point is two years later in the prophecy of Wano Country!"
Thinking of this, Lovett couldn't help but feel a little scared.
The Mother of the Abyss and the Great Emperor must have noticed the suspicion a long time ago, but due to the agreement, they could not tell him the truth. If he always believed that Im's ability was to rewind time, he might be capsized in the gutter.
Because Im has indeed set back time.
It's just that it's not a regression to the present, but a regression to the future, a future that has not been observed to be chaotic and actually exists!
But once the [future] is locked, it will inevitably feed back to the [present].
It is both a hypothesis and a fact.
That's why he was abandoned by Im when every time he twisted the law in the [future], the law collapsed and everyone died.
"I see, that's it...the ability to travel through the future, the ability to accelerate one's own time, and the ability to use the future to change the present are indeed the same as yours. They are in a straight line."
Kaido pinched his chin: "Then..."
"last question!"
He looked at Lovett in confusion: "Then why doesn't he use that ability to correct his mistakes now?"
Lovett: "..."
Im: "..."
"Oh, to be beaten like this by an idiot like you is really..."
Sighing, Im, who had a big and round head, finally stood up.
Kaido: "Ah, what are you doing, old man?!"
At this time, it was Lovett who helped him answer his doubts: "Restrictions!"
"Devil fruits have limitations. The more incredible the ability, the greater the limitation. It is impossible to switch between the three abilities at will. Didn't Mrs. Shi escape from your grasp?"
"In addition, the helper I hired almost beat him to death, so that the life breath in his body was not as good as one millionth before, and activating the fruit ability requires physical strength. To be on the safe side, he was among all the time abilities he mastered.
, choose the one that is most helpful in the battle and accelerate your own time."
"As expected, traveling to the future can only be activated once or twice in a lifetime. The loser's dust consumption is medium, but the interference left by Mrs. Time is of little significance in one or two seconds. This is what I left for him last time.
Lessons."
"How long have I been here? He can't go back in time now because he is in a state of time acceleration. Listen carefully to the teacher in class."
Kaido: "..."
Can I admit that I am a fool?
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
"Ah, indeed, that Your Majesty is indeed terrifying enough."
Lovett: "..."
If you heard me right, you just killed His Majesty, right?
As expected of your mistress, what have you always done to him?
"The loser eats the dust? What a good name. It sounds much better than mine."
"but……"
"Do you think this is enough to defeat me? Earl Black!"
Kaido: "...Hey, I'm still here! Who are you looking down on!"
Im took a deep breath, and the familiar sense of oppression reappeared, as if he felt the despair of the human race, and the power of destiny on earth was full of malice towards them.
Kaido: "...Please don't remember me at this time, thank you!"
"My destiny is in my hands."
Im looked up into the distance, and the lines on his eyeballs made him look mysterious and distant, not a god, but more of a god.
"Can you break this damn curse?"
In response to this, Lovett was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "Of course."
"And there's more than one way."
"Nani?!"
"I finally let it slip, Im!"
Lovett laughed evilly, billowing black flames steamed wantonly, grabbed the red-eyed raven, and stuffed it into his heart.
Swish! Swish!
Two black wings appeared behind him again, and the evil Black Earl rose into the sky.
"destiny?"
"How ridiculous!"
Im looked shocked and reorganized everything that had just happened. He was suddenly horrified to find that his thinking had been unknowingly interfered with by the Black Earl.
Time's trump card has been seen through. He can't wait to prove his dignity as a strong man, but is silently and controlled by the opponent!
Necromancers are experts at playing with people's hearts!
Suddenly, the ocean began to tremble, as if something huge was swimming below.
At the end of the ocean, a huge black shadow floated on the sea, slowly approaching the battlefield.
Then...
"fire!"
"Armored Man" Caesar Courant stepped on the front of the ship with high spirits, commanding the people in the control room to activate the main gun aimed in the direction of Im.
