BOOM!
A pillar of seawater rose to the sky.
"Master!" Two shouts echoed.
"Calm down." Huo Yuhao replied calmly.
As soon as they got teleported to the new timeline, they were greeted with an open ocean and crashed straight into it.
Fortunately, the Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit that Huang Qiu'er ate doesn't have a weakness other Devil Fruits have. She could swim freely in the ocean without getting affected by Oceana's curse.
As for Kuina, Huo Yuhao hasn't planned to let the little girl eat any Devil Fruit, though some Zoans in his inventory suit her. She's also a skilled swimmer.
Huo Yuhao used telekinesis and lifted them both from the ocean, "Let's look for an island first. I don't know which timeline we are currently on."
"I hope it's not too chaotic."
They explored the area and finally saw an island. It was a massive island with towering mountains left and right, reaching the white clouds.
Landing on the beach, Huo Yuhao dried Huang Qiu'er and Kuina with his new flame and made them comfortable enough.
"Are you okay now?" Huo Yuhao asked them.
"Yes." Huang Qiu'er didn't mind being wet.
"Mm." Kuina breathed in and out, adjusting her breathing due to the sudden change of atmosphere.
Huo Yuhao nodded at their condition and asked Evo, 'Evo, where are we?'
[Wait, let me scan the area first]
[Scanning...]
[You're in the gap between timelines]
[This place is weird. The space and time are stable, unlike the previous one]
'But since you sent me to this timeline, doesn't that mean one of the girls is here?' Huo Yuhao frowned slightly.
[Exactly]
[The problem is there is no problem with this timeline]
[It's just too stasis ]
[Host, look at the sky and ocean]
Huo Yuhao raised his gaze and saw the azure sky with white clouds but noticed the clouds didn't move. Then, he looked down at the ocean and noticed no ripple or movement.
"This is not good."
[Yes, this is not good]
[You have to find the source of this extreme timeline stasis condition]
Huo Yuhao activated Heavenly Dao of Space-Time, observing the realm's status in real-time. His frown deepened because he couldn't find anything wrong with this timeline.
"What if I use Paradox Dust?"
"No, that would reset this timeline..."
"What should I do?" Huo Yuhao rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
Roar!
A beastly roar disturbed Huo Yuhao and others.
They turned around and saw the trees on the massive island shaking, uprooting themselves.
Huang Qiu'er pulled her Golden Dragon Spear and used Huanglong's power, causing yellowish-golden scales to grow on her skin.
Kuina stood behind Huo Yuhao, not wanting to be a burden for him. She is still too weak right now.
Huo Yuhao crossed his arms and saw a sabertooth tiger pouncing out of the woods. The tiger is over twenty meters, covered in orangish-white furs, and has fierce saber-like fangs sticking out of its mouth.
Kuina's eyes widened, "So big..."
"This is the outside world? How dangerous."
"Qiu'er." Huo Yuhao wasn't interested.
"On it, Master." Huang Qiu'er turned into a stream of golden light.
She swung her Golden Dragon Spear and turned into a golden-scaled flood dragon, swimming in the air and lashing its strong tail like a whip.
Bam!
The flood dragon's tailwhip struck the sabertooth tiger and sent it hurtling through the air like a ragdoll and shrieking in agony.
Kuina was awed by this sight because she had never seen such a strong woman. Even the most powerful man in the Shimotsuki Village, her father, might not be able to defeat this senior sister of hers!
Huang Qiu'er landed on the knocked-out sabertooth tiger and said with difficulty, "Master, I knocked this fellow cold."
'It didn't die in one hit.' Huang Qiu'er pouted in displeasure. She has controlled Huanglong's power well enough not to go on a rampage and even created her own technique based on Draconic's evolution.
The one she used earlier is the third stage of four stages.
After one week of intense training, Huang Qiu'er created four stages of Huanglong's power.
Golden Carp, Fish-Dragon, Flood Dragon, and True Dragon.
Even then, she doesn't seem able to utilize Huanglong's true power.
Although Huo Yuhao said this was enough, she wanted more.
Huo Yuhao went to the fainted sabertooth tiger and invaded its mind with mental power, searching for relevant memories about this timeline. A few seconds later, his expression darkened.
"I didn't expect this to happen."
"We actually entered a timeline with a time loop."
[Time reset, now that makes sense]
[Looking at the state of this timeline, the time loop's reset should be...]
[At the end of a thirtieth day]
"At the end of a month." Huo Yuhao replied.
"Well, we are stuck here for a while."
"I will try finding the anomaly somehow."
[I think you forgot one crucial piece of information, Host]
[The timeline will reset constantly, but you and two other girls won't]
[You will still age in this stasis timeline]
"Yeah, this will be a fantastic place to train." Huo Yuhao commented self-mockingly. "God knows how long I'll be trapped here."
With that, Huo Yuhao also started teaching Kuina about Spirit Master and many other fields. However, he mainly focused on swordsmanship and blacksmithing.
Kuina is a once-a-century genius, and her swordsmanship has reached the finest stage in the Shimotsuki Village alone.
Unfortunately, she died in canon.
That won't happen with Huo Yuhao's appearance, though.
...
...
Eight years and ninety-six resets later.
A blue-haired young lady swiftly ran into the woods, dodging the chase of several gigantic beasts. She wore a white-blue dress with two katanas on her hips, each gleaming with faint divine lights.
Arriving at the end of the path, a deadly cliff with an endless bottom, the blue-haired young lady stopped.
She turned around and frowned, "Phantom is annoying."
"Master said Phantom's number doubled every reset, and it seems the theory is true. All we need to do is kill you guys until the Phantom Lord appears, and we can exist in this god-forsaken place."
Roar!
An armored tyrannosaurus pounced on her.
'Kuina, you will be the strongest swordsman. No, you will be the strongest sword goddess, so remember these words well.' A warm voice echoed in her head.
'No matter how difficult it was, don't give up.'
Kuina smiled and pulled out one of her self-made katanas, drawing it with the finest. Water dripped from her blade, and a giant fish-like shadow with vast wings appeared and loomed over the cliff.
At the same time, seven black spirit rings hovered around her.
"In the name of Azure Sky, Verdant Sword Art." Kuina pointed the katana at the armored tyrannosaurus.
"Waterfall Crashing the Sky!"
Kuina moved in a straight line, passing through all Phantom on her path, and sliced them in half. She sheathed her katana and eliminated all enemies.
ROAR!
A draconic roar reverberated on the island.
Kuina gazed at the distance, "Sister Qiu'er is going to break through."
"It must be good to comprehend Concept and make her own Divinity."
"I made no progress in Concepts after eating Bird-Bird Fruit, Model: Kun-Peng three years ago."
"Well, Master should be there, too."
"I can't make him wait." When talking about her master, Kuina felt no better man existed. He's gentle, strict, loveable, and handsome!
With a woosh, Kuina spread her arms and transformed into a giant blue swallow with a fish-like tail.
BOOOM!
Kuina broke the sound barrier and traversed thousands of miles in an instant.
At the same time, a majestic yellowish-rose golden eastern dragon swam in the sky and fought with black thunderclouds.
ROAR!
The dragon spat thunderous fire breath, parting the thunderclouds apart and revealing a clear sun.
"Sun of Destiny!" An enchanting voice shook the realm.
A godly presence descended, and the dragon experienced a complete metamorphosis with seven colorful divine rings. A beautiful halo crown manifested above her head.
The eastern dragon glitched, and what appeared next was a beautiful young woman in a black-blue dress. She also possessed the halo crown above her blue-golden hair, with a pair of gem-like blue draconic eyes.
Watching this atop a mountain, a blue-haired young man in a navy blue robe smiled proudly.
"Another goddess has ascended."
