🕑 Added 2025-02-05 20:37:50 +0000 UTC(A/N: Well, we just hit another milestone. 400th Chapter and the story is still far from over. I have so many ideas yet too little time to write this story, but I will do my best! I also want to say "Thank you for all the support!!!")
--- Chapter 400 ---
Huo Yuhao successfully awakened everyone's Martial Soul. He was about to sit down and relax when Rossweisse returned with a row of people.
"Yuhao-sama, I have captured the trespassers." The goddess of magic smiled brightly.
"What should I do with them?"
Huo Yuhao glanced at the marines and cipher pols before focusing on the Celestial Dragon. "Have you interrogated them?"
While Huo Yuhao could do it himself, he was too lazy to deal with these people. He wanted to focus on defeating Phantom Lord and finding the last two girls.
He was being honest here.
Rossweisse nodded and kicked Saint Jin down, "This guy said the "Roar of Death" was manufactured somewhere in the chaotic sea that only five elders and a guy called Imu know."
Saint Jin and the Cipher Pols trembled when Rossweisse casually mentioned the name of their supreme leader. Their blood boiled but quickly cooled down because they knew they were no match for this woman.
It was blasphemous, but they couldn't do anything about it.
Meanwhile, the marines were confused.
Who is this Imu guy?
Even though the information about the Five Elders is 'inherently' hidden, some information about them is still circulating in the Marineford. At this point, it was a public secret.
Of course, these marines aren't dumb enough to discuss five elders. They knew their position well.
Justice? What is that?
Can you eat Justice?
However, these marines only knew about Imu now. They couldn't help but become curious.
Huo Yuhao lowered his head and pondered silently, "Five elders and Imu, huh? It's getting more interesting."
"However, not all Sephiroth Graal's pieces might be on them."
"Hmm, did you see something, Yuhao-sama?" Rossweisse blinked her big eyes in admiration. Although she had her magic, they were inferior to Huo Yuhao's magical eyes.
Not to mention, Huo Yuhao's eyes could do more than see through things.
Huo Yuhao smiled faintly, "Well, I recently comprehended a new concept, but I barely touched the surface."
"Oh, what concept? What concept? Tell me, please~!" Rossweisse was dying of curiosity.
Beside Huo Yuhao, Huang Qiu'er raised her eyebrows and tip-toed to him, looking very curious.
"Cause-effect." Huo Yuhao replied casually.
Rossweisse and Huang Qiu'er froze on the spot upon hearing this. They stared at Huo Yuhao like he was a monster. Wait, he was a monster.
But now, He's a Monster with a capital.
The girls exchanged looks and sighed with frustration. The concept of cause-effect is no ordinary power. It's one of the most complex powers to grasp within their current reach.
Rossweisse knew that the cause-effect power was 'commonly' used in higher realms. But that stage was beyond their current capabilities. Those higher dimensional beings in the "Omniversal Realm" like to throw cause-effect power like they are candy.
Again, Rossweise knew she was too far away from that realm. She's barely touched upon the 5th-dimensional being's power.
Yet Huo Yuhao did it.
Huo Yuhao looked at their shocked expression and shook his head in his heart.
The power of cause-effect wasn't necessarily good for him because he might get targeted by other people who used the same power.
Huo Yuhao wouldn't have explored this concept without his remarkable luck because the recent fight with "Batman" gave him an idea. Unless someone has higher luck than him, the cause-effect will not hit him.
Of course, Huo Yuhao's power is not mature yet.
He's still testing the water with cause-effect power.
"Anyway, Zephyr, you deal with them." Huo Yuhao suddenly said, looking at the black-armed man behind him.
Zephyr didn't expect Huo Yuhao to order him right away. However, he was a bit excited because dealing with the marines, cipher pols, and Celestial Dragon sounded like a dream.
After all, these guys have tarnished the term 'justice' in this world.
Without further ado, the black-armed man walked toward Saint Jim. He grinned as he dragged the proud noble like a dog.
Saint Jin was embarrassed. He hated getting treated like this, especially with noble blood flowing in his veins. He gritted his teeth and swore to make Zephyr pay in the future.
He didn't dare to curse at Rossweisse and Huang Qiu'er. He is even more afraid of Huo Yuhao because he has cause-effect power, but Zephyr is just a lowly man.
"We are back!" Raikou and Kuina appeared from thin air with the other members of Zephyr and Sabo's people.
"Good." Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile." Zephyr. Set up the Disciplinary Department quickly. After throwing them to jail, I want you to clean the area around Elwood."
"I understand, Yuhao-sama!" Zephyr patted his chest. As the chief of the Disciplinary Department, he must do his 1st task perfectly.
Although Elwood is known as the City of Peace, pirates and marines still roam the nearby seas, hoping to catch a few unsuspecting ships.
Previously, four main factions in the Elwood jointly protected the sea area, but now that Huo Yuhao has taken over, it's time to clean this area.
Deep inside his old heart, Zephyr was excited because he wanted to see how strong he became after awakening his Martial Soul. Huo Yuhao has shared cultivation techniques and resources with them, indicating that he trusted them enough to make good progress.
Marines could never give them such an incentive. Zephyr knows that for sure.
Meanwhile, Sabo was a bit embarrassed. He hoped Huo Yuhao could give him a job as well. Being middle makes him itchy.
Huo Yuhao noticed Sabo's gaze and commented, "As for Spirit Guide, your job is to research the ancient technology and integrate it into Dragon Nest's database."
"If possible, I want you to combine both systems and create a unique technology for this world."
"I understand." Sabo understood the gravity of Huo Yuhao's words. "I will tell Dragon-san about this later."
Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered something and added, "Talking about Dragon, I want you to tell him to be careful these days."
"While the World Government's secret weapon like "Roar of Death" is nothing to me, Dragon hasn't awakened his Martial Soul and has no power to fight Sacred Gear's fragments."
"This... Okay." Sabo nodded solemnly.
Huo Yuhao clapped his hand and said, "Very well, dispersive first. You can contact me through the smartwatches if you have found any problem."
"I hope you don't, though."
"Understand?"
"Yes!" Zephyr, Sabo, and many others responded immediately.
Huo Yuhao waved his hand, walking away with the girls. Rayleigh and Fujitora also followed him.
"Hey, what about me? What is my job?" Rayleigh raised his hand, asking with a frustrated tone.
Huo Yuhao rolled his eyes at this guy, "Your department has no members besides you. What job do you want besides recruiting more people into the Body Forging Department?"
Fujitora also wanted to ask about the same thing, but seeing Rayleigh get shut down made him silent.
Huo Yuhao stared at Fujitora calmly before saying, "Actually, I have a job for you, Fujitora."
"Please tell me, Yuhao-sama!" Fujitora was excited.
Huo Yuhao smiled, "Go to a place for me."
"Where?" Fujitora instantly followed.
"Skypiea."
