Chereads / One Piece: I am Imu / Chapter 197 - Chapter 197: Future Foreseen?

Chapter 197 - Chapter 197: Future Foreseen?

"Is this the world of Attack on Titan? If it is, there is nothing to fear, and we must fight. But what if it isn't?"

"What if it turns out to be a world with giant mechas or war robots, or even an advanced civilization capable of predicting the future through technology?"

Imu could close the Dimensional Gate at any time, but if the enemy had a powerful ability to foresee the future, then they would know this as well.

So why would they dare to send a large army to invade Starfish World?

While pondering, Imu received a hand-drawn drawing of the future by Kagaya Ubuyashiki.

The drawing clearly showed the hundreds of meters tall Dimensional Gate and the armored giants emerging from it.

The image even showed characters like Garp, Newgate, and Sakazuki in combat stances.

"Are those armored giants emitting steam?"

Imu narrowed his eyes as he scanned the image. He began to suspect that these giants were products of the 'Rumbling'.

"A civilization with the ability to foresee the future, capable of creating high-strength crystals and giant steam-powered robots... Does such a work of fantasy exist in Japanese anime?"

Imu was in a dilemma, as he was not an omniscient god. But in the end, he had to make a decision.

...

Meanwhile, the propaganda department went to work. They edited the recordings since the opening of Dimensional Gate No. 003.

The content showed the explorations and confrontations with the civilization of the other world.

But the most shocking were the scenes of Army General Byrnndi World and fifteen officers being brutally murdered by the enemy.

This attracted the attention of most of the citizens of Starfish World, who went from initial curiosity and surprise to amazement and terror.

Finally, the inhabitants of Starfish World understood what a war between civilizations was, a battlefield so terrifying that even the greatest combat powers could fall.

...

On the other hand, the high command of the Armed Forces had received orders from the Five Elders: to activate the highest level of war preparation and enter into total war with the third world.

With a single order, the world government began to move at full power.

They designated the region where Dimensional Gate No. 3 was located as the main combat area.

Immediately, the Construction Department brought tons of building materials for Pica to hastily erect a sixty-meter-high wall to surround the region.

Heavy howitzers were brought in, the shells of which had been converted into jet bombs, forming a gigantic artillery formation.

At that moment thousands of giant warriors, dressed in black cloaks of justice began to arrive. They carried black weapons and armor with blood-red lines on the surface.

This is the current army headquarters' giant troops with more than 2,000 people!

In a hidden corner, a team of about four hundred people, all dressed in black suits, gathered silently. The leader was Captain Steve Gus, behind him was his girlfriend Horobi.

In the sky, twenty flying warships were on alert. Borsalino and Kaido remained on the deck of their respective ships, with Marco and King waiting silently behind them.

Charlotte Linlin flew on Zeus, moving back and forth like a child waiting for the show to begin.

In front of the Dimensional Gate, Sakazuki, Garp, and Newgate stood in the front row.

Behind them were Bullet, Crocodile, Kuzan, among others.

A total military preparation.

...

On the moon.

Imu used the Planetary Dominance function of the Star Chart to observe the small Dimensional Gate and finally, after a light sigh, he chose without hesitation to upgrade the Dimensional Gate.

In an instant, the small dimensional gate shone with an intense light.

...

The deep, dark blue night sky was dotted with stars. Silver sands formed layers and dunes that resembled mounds of snow on the ground.

This place was so vast, beautiful and peaceful.

In the distance, columns of dazzling white light, like the World Tree, rose above the sand.

This was the boundary between the spiritual and material realms, an intermediate layer between the two. Even time was somewhat hazy in this space.

At that moment, a young man and a girl were standing face to face on the sand.

The girl had light yellow hair, wore a white cloth as a headband, and was wearing white cotton and linen clothing with short sleeves, covered in dust and stains.

Her skin was pale, and she was so thin that she seemed to suffer from chronic malnutrition. Her eyes reflected a mixture of displeasure, incomprehension and stubbornness.

"Eren, you're being too impulsive. Even if we don't block the Dimensional Gate, the World Government won't dare to send more troops. We might be able to buy more time!"

"I know, Ymir." Eren stared at the girl's face with his calm eyes.

"But you also know that sooner or later they will expand the Dimensional Gate and send an army. Now, we have the chance to bring the war to their world. If we are going to lose eventually, at least we can unleash our fury on their world before our world is enslaved."

This young man was Eren Yeager, twenty-two years old.

Seven years ago, in the early 850s of Paradis Island, just after he and Mikasa graduated from the Cadet Corps, he had an apocalyptic vision in a dream.

He saw golden rays spreading across the sky, which upon hitting the ground expanded into enormous balls of red fire. Then, gigantic masses of lava the size of mountains fell from the sky, turning into waves of magma that devoured humans, giants and canyons.

A blue dragon soared through the clouds, spitting out columns of fire that split the prosperous cities in two. A black giant hundreds of meters tall swept through the squadrons of aircraft.

Finally, he saw his home invaded by black-clad soldiers with guns, and the people he was familiar with, including Mikasa and Armin, being captured.

Initially, he thought it was just a strange nightmare.

But when he transformed into the Attack Giant for the first time, he was taken to this space called the Paths and met Ymir.

At that moment, Ymir revealed everything to him. She told him the truth about the invasion of armies from another world that would occur in seven years and told him that he must find a way to confront it in that time.

But what can he do at the age of fifteen?

However, Eren did not expect that his future self would continue to provide him with visions and information from the future. Before long, he saw his entire original life.

That's how he knew what he had to do.

First, gather the forces of the Nine Titans into one person, becoming the strongest and ultimate titan in history.

Secondly, he had to ally himself with all possible forces, not only from Paradis Island, but also with the hateful and disgusting Marleyans, and even with countries around the world.

In this way, with the help of his future self and ancestor Ymir, Eren slowly followed his original destiny, while secretly plotting his own plan of action.

In this process, he devoured one after another the heirs of the Nine Titans infiltrated on Paradis Island.

However, during the Battle to Reclaim Wall Maria, fate played a dirty trick on him.

Although they managed to defeat the wielder of the Colossal Titan, Armin suffered serious injuries due to the high-temperature steam and his life was in danger.

At that moment, Levi was about to use the single injection of spinal fluid to transform Armin into a titan and then have him devour Bertholdt, thus regaining the power of the Colossal Titan to heal his wounds.

Eren, however, had to act in pain and stop him, devouring Bertholdt before everyone's furious gaze.

Immediately afterward, Eren shared the future events with Mikasa, Levi, and his closest companions. At first, of course, they found it hard to believe.

Fortunately, the Founding Titan's power proved quite convenient. Eren transmitted the visions to the minds of his companions with Eldian blood.

From then on, the small group had a unified goal. After all, no one wanted to be enslaved, especially not by people from another world.

Two years later they launched a rebellion against the center of the island.

With the power of the six Titans in Eren's hands, they managed to easily install Historia Reiss as the queen of the new Eldian Empire.

A year later, Eren ventured alone to the country of Marley, where he secretly contacted Willy Tybur, the leader of the Tybur family and true controller of Marley.

For Eren, this was an extremely difficult decision. But he had no other choice. To unite the forces of the world, he had to rely on Marley's unrivaled international influence.

Luckily, Willy Tybur turned out to be a sensible and calculating man, one could even say that he was extremely wise. After believing in Eren, he acted immediately.

Ignoring internal criticism, he acknowledged the legitimacy of the new Eldian Empire. He then invited high-ranking officials from over a hundred countries to reveal to them the information of the future.

Using the Tybur family's centuries-old reputation, his own charisma, and Marley's immense influence, he pushed for the creation of the United World Army.

But at that moment, Eren proposed his long-planned plan to unify the Nine Titans.
