Chapter 610
So, in Lin Cheng's view, he had to do something. Right now, the people of Ishgar were still far too weak. Although Lin Cheng knew there were even more powerful beings within Ishgar, even he couldn't find them if he wanted to.
But if Lin Cheng wanted to give the people of Ishgar a way to grow stronger, he did have the means — there was just no need.
The reason the people of Ishgar were currently unable to grow stronger was simply that they no longer knew how to.
Even the Black Dragon Acnologia, in his time the strongest, had only become so by transforming himself into a dragon. So in the eyes of the people of Ishgar, there was simply no way to grow stronger. 17
Because the other strongest, the Black Wizard Zeref, was nothing but an ant before the Ten Commandments and the Shinigami, so in everyone's eyes, they too had no way to grow stronger.
Even if the people of this world grew stronger, before the puppets Lin Cheng now possessed they would still be mere ants. So, after having the Shinigami defeat Aizen, Lin Cheng planned to leave.
But the biggest problem right now was still how to make Aizen die a reasonable death. Aizen's current strength was already extraordinarily great, and even if Lin Cheng wanted him to die a reasonable death, there was no particularly good way to do it.
The only method might be to hand over the Monk who originally belonged to the Zero Division; that way, there might still be a way to defeat Aizen.
Thinking of this, Lin Cheng furrowed his brow slightly. Although he was somewhat reluctant to leave, he had no particularly good option now. The strength of this world could only raise Natsu to Zeref's level.
Anyone stronger than that — even Lin Cheng himself had no way to handle.
Sighing softly, Lin Cheng still decided to bring this final act to a close. After all, this might be the last time he stayed in this world.
So, under Lin Cheng's control, Hitsugaya Toushirou spoke.
"There's good news and bad news. I wonder if you'd like to hear them?"
"What news?"
Looking at Hitsugaya Toushirou, Natsu, who had just been freed from the ice, was very curious.
"I just received word that Aizen's rebellion has drawn the attention of the higher-ups. A truly great figure among our Shinigami is going to deal with Aizen personally."
"But the problem now is, although someone can handle Aizen, no one has the time to spare to deal with the other Estarossa."
"Perhaps we need to find him and seal him away once more."
Listening to Hitsugaya Toushirou's words, the people of Ishgar nodded as well. Since a great figure had appeared among the Shinigami, no matter how strong Aizen was, he couldn't possibly be strong enough to deal with those great figures directly, could he?
"But, may I be so bold as to ask — is it a member of the Zero Division that you speak of, Toushirou, who's going to make a move?"
"That's right. Captain-General Yamamoto just told me that the Zero Division has already discovered Aizen's rebellion. They can't accept that such a traitor has appeared among the Shinigami, and they want to kill him directly."
"What a shame. I'd really love to meet the ones who could seal the Ten Commandments."
Looking at Hitsugaya Toushirou, Natsu clicked his tongue in disappointment, a hint of regret in his eyes. That was just his nature — unable to witness the great battles between these powerful figures one by one, Natsu felt it was a pity.
But no matter how much he regretted it, there was nothing he could do. The gap in strength was simply too vast; they had no way at all to deal with them.
After all, if Lin Cheng hadn't suppressed the strength of the Ten Commandments and the Seven Deadly Sins members to some degree, then with just them, killing an Aizen would have been especially easy. But precisely because their strength was too monstrous, Lin Cheng had to suppress them.
In fact, Estarossa and Meliodas at their peak had already reached continent-level strength — and an especially powerful continent-level at that. Even the Black Dragon Acnologia was only at continent-level.
So, if he didn't suppress them, there'd be no problem with them simply breaking this world. Lin Cheng didn't want to keep playing in this world any longer either; after the Black Dragon and the Five Dragon Gods died, he had lost all interest.
Looking at Natsu, Hitsugaya Toushirou wore a faint smile — after all, he too wanted to know where the limits of this world lay.
"There will be a chance. But first we have to stop Estarossa from absorbing all of the Ten Commandments' power. Otherwise, if he and Aizen team up, we might still not be able to win."
"So our primary goal right now is still to defeat the Ten Commandments one by one. But after defeating them, we have to find a way to seal them away — only then can we be completely safe.".
