"How can I identify a corrupt spirit?"
"And, won't this disturb the order of the Underworld?" Imu still felt that it was better to ask in more detail in situations like these. "And what would my power level be in that place?"
"Those who actively attack you or other souls are corrupted spirits. Corrupted spirits are also targets to be eliminated. As for your strength..."
The King of Death thought for a moment.
"You are weak at the sixth sense level, but much stronger than those Admirals who died earlier. So you should be careful and return to your body if you are in danger."
"How do I do that?" Imu believes that learning to escape was the most important thing.
"Imagine you are putting the sword back into its sheath."
After hearing what King of Death said, Imu immediately started experimenting.
"Don't forget our cooperation, King of the Human World!"
Imu stared at the Enma sword, remembering the words of the King of Death. "Interesting, really interesting, the underworld..."
Imu was also worried about the Death King's assessment of his strength. "Sixth sense? Weak?"
So even the most powerful fighters in the Human World were only the weakest of the weak at the sixth sense level. What would the strongest be like?
...
On a small island about twenty kilometers in diameter, full of vibrant colors and covered with rainbow trees in abundance. The Moby Dick was docked on this peculiar island.
Since the Whitebeard Pirates left the waters of Wano Country, they came to this island to rest for a few days.
However, despite the sunny weather and beautiful island, the atmosphere in the crew is tense, each person seems to have deep concerns.
They clearly felt that incredible changes were taking place in the sea, and the situation in the entire world was developing in strange directions.
There are too many unknowns in Whitebeard's mind, but no one offers him answers. However, Linlin's words still resonate in his mind shockingly. 'In the end, sooner or later you will know...'
Edward Newgate sighed inwardly. But whatever the case, the most important thing is to protect his children.
Suddenly, the atmosphere changed drastically.
"Um?" Edward Newgate looked towards a specific direction in the sky, attracting the attention of Marco and others.
"Dad?" Marco asked confused.
Edward Newgate grabbed the Murakumogiri tightly, looked solemn, and ordered: "Something big is coming, tell everyone to come back!"
"Ok!" Marco turned around to deal with it without hesitation, while the other captains on the deck became alert.
"What a powerful Haki..." Whitebeard's expression became severe, because he felt a Haki as strong as he had never experienced.
In the next instant, a dark object appeared in everyone's field of vision, slowly flying towards them. After a moment, the dark figure became lighter and larger.
The terrifying hull of Noah's Ark, which covers an area of 21 square kilometers, was completely displayed in front of everyone. It blocked the sky, blocked the sun, and cast endless shadows on the vast sea.
'Is this the answer?' Edward Newgate stared at the behemoth with an expressionless face and thought to himself.
Immediately afterwards, a group of Holy Guard, clad in spotless armor and holding steel spears, with white cloaks billowing behind them, landed heavily on the island's beach.
It was followed by three booms, three golden armored giants with blood red markings, descended from the sky holding golden weapons, shaking the sands once again as they landed.
"Giants..." Edward Newgate narrowed his eyes.
Once he realized that the strength of these three was not that strong, he stopped paying attention to them and turned his gaze to the terrifying presence that had not yet left Noah's Ark.
"There he is!" Edward Newgate's pupils suddenly shrank, and he saw a man dressed in white appear on the deck of the ark. When their gazes met, he felt a strong impact on his mind.
But the other party didn't seem to have any ill intentions, and his eyes were more of admiration, which made Whitebeard frown.
After a moment, the man in white began to walk in the air as he approached them.
Finally, the man in white walked out of nowhere and stopped in front of the three golden giants, drawing all eyes to him.
"Who are you?" Edward Newgate took a deep breath and asked the first question in a very serious tone.
"Nice to meet you, Edward Newgate."
Imu turned his back on Noah's Ark and looked at the opponent condescendingly.
"I am the one who bears all the lives in this world, including yours."
[Bang! Bang! Bang!]
Just as he finished speaking, Edward Newgate's expression changed, because he discovered that Marco and others on the deck behind him suddenly knelt heavily on the ground.
Each of them was shaking violently, showing that they were trying their best to stand up, but they could not lift their heads and could only remain prostrate on the ground.
At the same time, Edward Newgate clearly felt as if his entire body was being pressed by countless sword blades.
"Only you, who have great achievements in Haoshoku Haki, have the qualification to stand in my presence." Imu's voice sounded calm and flat.
"Don't act like a Celestial Dragon in front of me!"
[Boom!]
Edward Newgate was furious. His children had been humiliated in this way, which made him even more angry. The formidable and terrifying force of his Haoshoku Haki rushed towards Imu like an avalanche, while another part of him tried to dissipate the invisible force surrounding Marco and the others.
At the same time an intense and cold sword intent spread from Imu.
In an instant, those tsunami-like energy waves were completely shattered, completely dissipating.
"How can it be..." Edward Newgate was shocked.
"I admire you. This gives you the privilege to behave capriciously. From now on, your power will be at my service, but before that, you must deeply understand the magnitude of the difference between our strength."
Edward Newgate's face was already livid, and he gritted his teeth and glared at Imu, but the lives of Marco and others were obviously in the hands of the latter.
If he could make them kneel, surely he could also directly crush them. So he could only smile coldly and say: "Okay, I want to see it, let's find a place to have a good exchange!"
"This island is very beautiful, let's stay here." After observing the colorful Island, Imu made a decision. This made Edward Newgate change his expression and quickly exclaim: "There are thousands of civilians on this island. I know of a desert island nearby, let's go there!"
However, before Imu ordered anything specific, the Sacred Guard soldiers began to move quickly towards the interior of the island.
"What are they doing?!" Edward Newgate was completely desperate. He thought that these soldiers were going to massacre the residents of the island, but he could not act directly at this time.
Imu understood his thoughts and said indifferently: "They will only be removed from the island. You are thinking too much."
"Is it because of you that Shiki, Byrnndi World, and Big Mom joined the World Government?" Edward Newgate asked with complex and heavy feelings.
"You could say that and soon you will be like them." Imu didn't mind chatting with him.
To see a man like Whitebeard, who lacked clear ambitions but had many bonds and exceptional strength, was to have a perfect subordinate.
"Gurararara~ I can see that you are very strong, very strong, but it may be more difficult than you imagine to make me surrender!"
He now regards Imu as the main fighting force of the new generation among the Celestial Dragons.
With the World Government's resources and hundreds of years of experience, it's not surprising that a genius would become a top-notch combat power. As for the somewhat exaggerated aura, it can be attributed to the opponent's extraordinary talent or some kind of Devil Fruit ability.
Meanwhile, the government officials cooperated with the Holy Guard very efficiently and quickly removed the residents from the island.
When everything was ready.
Imu instantly disappeared into thin air without making any comment.
Edward Newgate narrowed his eyes when he saw this. He could feel that this was not a Devil Fruit ability, but pure speed. "There is such a character among the Celestial Dragons..."
With a heavy heart, Edward Newgate looked at his sons still struggling on deck, sighed and took up his Murakumogiri, advancing towards the interior of the island.
Imu silently looked at Whitebeard who was running towards him menacingly.
Honestly, Imu was also looking forward to this battle.
"The interview begins, and you can show your worth to me, Edward Newgate." Imu said when Whitebeard was about a hundred meters away.
Edward Newgate was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed loudly. "Gurararara, you are a pretentious child, I will fulfill your wish!"
Without further ado, he created a halo of white light around his fist and punched the air in front of Imu.
[Crack!]
There was an explosion of white light, like a hammer breaking an invisible mirror. The dense cracks that spread in all directions. And a shock wave with a faint white glow violently unleashed.
