Chapter 107

Like a thunderclap on a clear day, their hearts were shaken.

Blackbeard's series of words left everyone present stunned in place, unable to recover for a long time.

Everyone had imagined the reason for Blackbeard's attack on them, but no one thought the opponent had such a goal.

Taking the heads of dark guild masters to exchange for the qualifications of a Heavenly King—what kind of crazy person could think of such a method?

Whether it was 'Zero' or Hades, after hearing Blackbeard's words, their faces turned completely black.

Wanting their heads—he wasn't the only one; even the Magic Council hadn't been able to do such a thing.

Wanting the heads of two dark guild masters at the same time—just a mere outsider daring to speak such nonsense—did he think they were trash to be kneaded at will?

Hades said in a deep voice: "How should I put it, the conflict between you and us never had a chance to be eased from the beginning, right?"

"Do you still need to ask?"

Speaking of this, Blackbeard's expression also calmed down, even calm to the point of being scary.

"I said from the beginning that you are my targets."

"And do you know why I would say this news? Because not only you, but everyone here is going to die!"

A calm face telling calm words, but hidden beneath this calmness was a chilling killing intent.

"Then you can try!"

At this very moment, even Hades's expression had completely darkened, and the veins on his forehead were bulging.

With strength reaching this level and living to Hades's age, no one would easily joke with their own life.

At first, he had mistakenly thought there was some kind of conflict between them; in his view, as long as the problem was mediated, there was no need to fight to the death.

But now, it must be said that in all these years, Blackbeard was the first person to make him feel so angry!

"Amaterasu: Formula 28!"

In his anger, magic power surged crazily from Hades's body, transforming into dozens of magic circles that stopped beside Blackbeard!

Boom—!

Violent wind waves swept out, and swathes of forest collapsed one after another under the impact of the power.

Under the thick smoke, before others could show a happy smile, a black shadow had already faintly emerged in the smoke.

"It's useless; I have already seen through all your actions, and I already know all your attack methods."

"Give up resistance; perhaps I can let you die a bit more painlessly."

"Can't continue to drag this out!"

Avoiding the pursuit of the black mist once again, several drops of sweat flowed down Hades's head, and his breathing had become somewhat disordered.

"If we continue to be dragged down by the opponent like this, the one who loses will inevitably be us!"

Successive dodging had consumed a large amount of Hades's physical strength; if he was like this, there was no need to mention Bluenote and 'Zero'.

However...

Just when Hades thought the black mist would continue to spread, he suddenly found that the black mist had stopped, and even began to gather rapidly toward Blackbeard.

"What's going on? Why stop?" Bluenote jumped onto a hillside and looked around in surprise.

"I don't know; perhaps releasing a large amount of this bizarre black mist at once is not a small burden for him."

'Zero's' gaze narrowed slightly as he said.

Being able to immunize against attacks, release attacks, and if you add infinite release,

Such an ability, even if it can't be called invincible, is probably not far from it.

A series of exchanges made 'Zero' feel a sense of powerlessness, different from the crushing he encountered when facing the 'Five Elders' earlier.

Although Blackbeard's ability didn't bring a strong sense of shock, that feeling of powerlessness, like hitting a fist against the air, was even more uncomfortable.

Just then, on the other side, Hades's gaze also turned to 'Zero'.

There is no need for communication between the strong; with one look, 'Zero' understood the meaning in Hades's eyes.

The opponent withdrawing the black mist was also a good opportunity for them to counterattack!

However...

Just when the three were ready to act, they were stunned.

Because within their field of vision, the ground where the black mist had spread had already disappeared, replaced by a huge deep pit.

Trees, boulders, including the mountain peaks, were all gone!

"Could it be..."

When a strong, ominous premonition surged in their hearts, Blackbeard's highly characteristic laughter sounded again!

"Ze-hahahahaha... Sink into despair!"

As the words fell, an even more violent black mist erupted from Blackbeard's body, then transformed into a black storm, sweeping through everything.

The next second, it was like the collapse of a sky island floating in the sky.

Trees, boulders, mountain peaks—everything that had disappeared emerged in the darkness, overwhelming everyone's vision.

"Is this... is this really... something a person can do?"

At this very moment,

Everything came so suddenly that Hades and the other three were stunned.

The next second, they recovered and were still standing in place; it wasn't that they had given up, but under such a large-scale attack, it was already too late to run.

The three erupted with magic power, their strength unleashed without reservation.

They knew that if they held back again, they might really be killed by the opponent this time!

"Shadow of Eternal Darkness!"

"Amaterasu: 100 Formulas!"

"Gravity: Rise!!"

The three erupted with magic power, and the terrifying magic power transformed into powerful magic beams, shooting out and bombing everything that was falling!

A large amount of explosive smoke instantly filled the air, blocking the sky and the sun.

Within the smoke, terrifying energy continued to radiate, impacting everything.

"Is this guy really human?"

"I don't know; this is the first time I've seen the Master in such a sorry state."

"That guy is simply a monster."

From being besieged to reversing the situation and then counter-hunting, the strength Blackbeard displayed exceeded everyone's imagination.

Especially when Blackbeard said he was prepared to kill everyone, they were once again shocked by his astonishing decision.

If it were them earlier, they might have scoffed because the weakest of the three, Bluenote, had the strength of the top five of the Saint Ten, not to mention 'Zero' and Hades.

But now...

After watching a series of battles, this firm belief had begun to waver.

The confrontation could continue, but anyone could see that Blackbeard had already completely taken the upper hand in this battle.

Shaking three people with one's own strength!

Such strength was something they had never seen before.

"Oh, can you still hold on?" Blackbeard laughed coldly.

"Then how about this!"

Boom—!

No longer holding back, everything that had been swallowed by the black mist earlier was released at this moment!

Amidst the roaring sound!

Hades and the others, who were continuously releasing magic power, instantly felt the pressure double!

Seeing the magic bombardment, and unable to resist the falling mountain peaks, Bluenote erupted first!

"Super Gravity Sphere!"
