After Huang Qiu'er finished the Phantom Lord, the space-time in the Tiny World recovered a bit. Oceana could feel the pressure decreasing each second.
Once again, Oceana was speechless.
Those who come with Huo Yuhao are nothing but monsters.
From Oceana's sense, she could tell the master of the crimson tornados isn't simple.
No magic. No blessing. It was a simple spear thrust to end it all.
To split a world apart with a spear strike signified her position as the goddess.
Heaven favors those who work hard, but Huang Qiu'er exceeds it.
"Oceana, your view is limited to Tiny World." Huo Yuhao commented calmly on the side. "It's a common misconception to make when you see something amazing, using it as your pedestal to judge something."
"Qiu'er is strong. She has trained under my supervision for over eight years and has shown remarkable results even by my organization's standard, which led her to achieve this much power."
"She wanted to grasp her own fate and destiny, breaking the shackles placed on her feet. Today, you see her in full glory before claiming her destiny..."
"Shackles on her feet..." Oceana mumbled, seeing the confident blue-haired goddess pulling her spear back.
Huo Yuhao also stared at Huang Qiu'er and praised her. Given how strong she was now, Tang San couldn't touch her. As for whether she could defeat the Sea God, that would be a question for later.
Unless Tang San risked getting his Godseat damaged, he wouldn't make a reckless move for a few years. That few years are enough for Huang Qiu'er to increase her Godseat to half-step Godking or Godking.
It's not impossible with Huo Yuhao's help.
"Qiu'er has done a splendid job. Now, we must wait for Robin and Rossweisse."
"Robin. She's just like Kuina." Oceana commented.
Huo Yuhao raised his brow before smiling, "Yes. They are similar but have different goals. Robin just wanted a good life after the suffering she had gone through from childhood to adulthood."
"Before meeting me, her joy came only from deciphering poneglyph and adventuring with her crew."
"I..." Oceana awkwardly moved her gaze to Robin.
Huo Yuhao shook his head gently, "I didn't blame you for not helping Robin. I also felt guilty for her recent sufferings."
"I will pay her back soon."
At the top of Huo Yuhao's head, he also promised a date with girls after this ordeal. It's not just Robin. Yes, Huo Yuhao also must be responsible for others.
'There are still Valerie and Mei.' Huo Yuhao closed his eyes, waiting for something or someone.
...
...
Robin faced the ice-armored soldier and ice giant calmly. Her eyes shone with ivory, magical lights from her newly added Martial Souls.
She has three Martial Souls, which gives her a better prospect than others.
However, Robin didn't dare to be arrogant.
Huo Yuhao granted her wish to turn the hateful Phantom Lord into her Martial Soul, so the feeling she got from the ice giant was familiar.
This ice giant is dangerous.
Robin breathed in and mumbled, "I have taken things seriously with extreme care. The consumption of three Martial Souls is enormous."
"But I will be able to take it."
"After all, I'm also a Goddess."
Robin extended her hand, and several pieces of white paper fell to the ocean below. The white paper spread and turned into a beautiful white flower field.
'I'd never thought I would have to use this new technique so soon.'
"Domain Expansion... White Death Soul Field."
The white flower bloomed, spreading spores in the air.
The ice giant stopped on his track and stared at the spreading white spores solemnly.
He looked up to Robin, "So, she was the one who killed Copycat. We, Phantom Lord, exist conceptually, but to down us like this is a different matter."
"My soldiers! Be careful of your steps..."
"Our opponent is dangerous!"
'Crimson Typhoon has died.' The ice giant suddenly thought amidst his order. 'How is that even possible? He has the best life-saving ability among us, Phantom Lords?'
Unfortunately, the ice giant couldn't check how his fellow Phantom Lord died. His hand was already busy with this flower field.
"You don't want to come at me?" Robin's calm voice stirred their souls.
"Then, I will come to you!"
Robin clenched her hand, and the flower field burst with a brilliant white-blue light. The spores popped like fireworks, creating a copy of Robin herself.
They look like clones, but much more than that.
"Mahayana Paper Flower Clones. Attack!"
Robin's clones were coated with Armament Haki as they charged at the ice giant's army.
Both sides clashed fiercely, creating chaos in the usually quiet ocean.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The ice giant killed several clones in one hit of his mighty halberd but soon discovered a problem with his enemies. They are immortal!
Yes, Robin's clones are immortal. The only way to kill them is to break her domain or herself.
Of course, the ice giant didn't know this fact.
The ice giant could only use his ability, "Absolute Zero..."
With a heavy thump, the ice giant collected his breath into his palm and infused it into his giant halberd. He swept the weapon like a scythe and created a freezing shockwave.
Crack!
Robin's clones turned into ice sculptures, sealing them indefinitely.
"My soldiers, advance!" The ice giant pointed his halberd at Robin.
'As long as we can maintain the corruption in the area, our mission will be complete.'
The ice soldiers roared and stepped into the air by freezing it. Their steps are heavy and well-coordinated.
Facing over a hundred thousand enemies alone made Robin feel nostalgic because her crew used to be in this situation. After this, she might be able to meet them again.
"What a fool..." Watching the soldiers walk to her, Robin couldn't help but chuckle.
"One step to destruction, that is."
"Explode, my clones."
"This..." The ice giant's eyes widened because he felt his heart throbbing suddenly. He hurriedly created an ice barrier around him and saw the clones he had frozen on the field burning with white flame.
"No. I've fallen into that demoness trap-!"
Before the ice giant could finish his word, a loud explosion range over several kilometers cubic swallowed him and his army. The center of it is none other than Robin's domain, which also swallowed their souls and prevented them from getting revived.
A blue shadow escaped the explosion, crashing against an island far away with a painful thud.
Cough! Cough!
The ice giant coughed a mouthful of blue-colored blood.
He felt like shit.
His body has gotten injured beyond his natural recovery. Even if he wanted to heal, it would take a few years.
That demoness is ruthless!
"W-Where is she?" The ice giant looked up with difficulty and found that Robin had disappeared from her spot.
He felt a horrible foreboding of this situation.
Before the ice giant could react, Robin had already appeared before him and ripped his beating chest with an extra sharp arm made by the long-awakened Flower-Flower Fruit.
"Thank you for the donation. Your heart will be a snack for my Martial Soul." Robin indifferently said. With that, another Phantom Lord has passed away.
She watched the ice giant's body turn into dust and turn around in the Rossweisse's direction. "Qiu'er and I have finished our parts."
"Kuina and Raikou are almost done with their tasks."
"Rossweisse, you can do this."
...
...
Meanwhile, on Rossweisse's side. She faced several gigantic, floating evil eyes with a solemn expression.
"Phew..." She sighed helplessly.
"I think I'm in big trouble."
