Before this, Huo Yuhao instructed Tian Meng to support Toki and protect her from danger. They couldn't afford to lose Toki because her presence means a lot.
With Tian Meng's divine energy, she should be able to enhance and support Toki's time-freezing domain for a full day.
"Rossweisse, how is the situation?" Huo Yuhao glanced at the goddess of magic.
Rossweissse's eyes gained several magic circles as she scanned the crack in the sky.
She cleared her throat and answered, "Yuhao-sama, the space-time barrier above Loguetown has been breached. According to my calculation, our enemy will appear in a few minutes."
"That being said... I can't gauge their strength at all."
"I guess they could be a Saint-level Existence from Toki's world."
"They are technically equal to our 3rd Class God and 2nd Class God Realm, but what makes them dangerous is their Divine Might, so be careful."
"Divine Might." Huo Yuhao mumbled with a nod. Different people have different Divine Might.
It could affect reality and even the law of the universe.
However, Huo Yuhao wasn't afraid. Divine Might would not affect him because he was above Myriad Heaven Realm's level.
The same goes for the ladies who had become goddesses in their own unique way. Huo Yuhao had a slight feeling that the Great Fang Matter Beast might appear in this event.
Kuina wore her Demon-Slaying Mask and asked, "Master, what should we do with the people below?"
"Even though the time is frozen, they could still get killed."
"About that... You don't have to worry. Toki is keeping them alive." Huo Yuhao replied with a smile.
"Pardon?" Kuina's eyes widened behind her mask.
Rossweisse glanced at Kuina and explained it to her, "Kuina. Was it?"
"I'm sure you already know about me, including my name. I will cut the chase."
"Since you're falling asleep early, you don't see Toki's awakening her Hundred. Her Hundred: Time Variance is special."
"It's a Specialized Innocent Type that focuses on freezing a moment."
"Not time, but a moment."
"It means that as long as she kept her ability active, she could freeze that moment and make it indestructible."
"Her role is crucial in this plan."
"There is a such thing?" Kuina was shocked. Toki's ability is a bit broken.
Seeing Kuina's expression, Huo Yuhao and others chuckled.
Rossweisse shook her head gently and added, "Toki's ability is overpowered, yes."
"However, she also consumed a lot of energy and focus."
"Senior Tian Meng will protect Toki at a close distance, and our job is to prevent the enemies from getting close to her."
"And leave the Phantom Lord to Yuhao-sama."
"I see..." Kuina looked at Hua Yuhao, seeing him nod. She summoned her weapons, placing them on their holders near her left hip.
"I will do my best then."
Huang Qiu'er also summoned her golden dragon spear. "We will do our best, Kuina."
"Get that right."
"Hehe." Robin giggled, calling her second self.
"Kuina-chan is so adorable." Raikou grabbed a bow and arrow that Huo Yuhao gifted to her.
Kuina flushed behind her mask because they were teasing her.
She harrumphed and vowed to show them the result of her hard work yesterday.
"They are here." Huo Yuhao suddenly said.
"Hmm, they are faster than Rossweisse said."
Kacha!
The sky cracked even more and exploded, causing several glass-like space-time barriers to fall off. The dark void was 'naturally' revealed, exuding an ominous aura.
Dark aura seeped into the Tiny World, causing the dark thunderclouds in the area to darken even more. However, this was a different kind of dark.
It was cold and ghastly, brimming with evil.
Not to mention, there is no sign of lightning in the thunderclouds anymore.
SKREEEEEEEEK!
Heart-stirring scream coming out.
BOOM!
The sky collapsed over, widening the void entrance by one-kilometer square. The size alone could swallow Loguetown whole.
Huo Yuhao was about to stretch his finger when a small figure amidst the darkness appeared. "Oh?"
The figure is wrapped in a dark robe and has white hair. It was a tall yet burly man with Ostera Race's characteristics, such as not proportional body to head size.
Not far away, Toki's expression changed drastically. Her face visibly darkened by this man's appearance.
Tian Meng noticed this and asked, "Do you know him?"
Toki nodded before answering, "Great Tan Royalty..."
"Saint Juke."
"Saint Juke?" Not only Tian Meng, Huo Yuhao, and others also overheard Toki.
Toki nodded, "Yes. Saint Juke is one of ten Great Tan Royalties who served under the Great Tan King."
"If Ostera Race's experts combined, he's within the top ten."
"That's because he wielded a fearsome Divine Might."
"Saint Juke's Divine Might allowed him to multiply his attacks with willpower, which blurred his enemy's sense of reality."
"I didn't think the Great Tan Royalty who'd get sent here would be him."
"This is dangerous."
Huo Yuhao listened to Toki silently and commented, "It's not only him, Toki."
"I also sensed fifteen slightly weaker presences behind him."
"Fifteen..." Toki pondered solemnly. "Those presences might be the Tan Dukes."
"They are Half-Saint Experts. Their Divine Mights are not inferior to Saint Juke."
"Everyone, be careful." As Toki finished her words, fifteen armored knights descended from the sky and stopped near Saint Juke.
Saint Juke scanned the Loguetown with a weird expression. "Is this the place?"
"That's weird. Even though we are in the Tiny World, I felt the flow of time here isn't correct."
"Hmm?" Saint Juke blinked and looked far ahead, seeing a familiar green head.
"Isn't that? How did the Great Toki Princess appear here? Wait, no wonder we couldn't find her outside."
"So, she's here all along."
"This time freeze must be her doing."
He smiled, "Good. I only need to capture Toki and eat her soul to know why this Tiny World's flow of time is weird."
"Dukes, surround Princess Toki."
"Yes, Saint!" The fifteen armored knights moved beyond the speed of sound and surrounded Toki but met with resistance.
BANG!
Several paper figurines appeared and stopped the armored knights from advancing. Although the paper figurines weren't powerful, they were durable and annoying enough to handle them.
Robin stretched her hand, "Yuhao-sama, their strength is around 3rd Class God Realm."
"I can handle them alone."
"No, split them. Even though your dimensionality is higher, it doesn't always translate to being a winner." Huo Yuhao replied sternly.
Robin smiled, "Understood."
She glanced at Huang Qiu'er and others, "Ladies, how should we split them?"
"Three each?" Kuina coldly replied, eager to draw her blade.
"That's fair." The ladies nodded and flashed in different directions.
Swoosh!
With that, the Tan Dukes got separated and faced with the goddesses.
Huo Yuhao stayed in the spot and met his gaze with Saint Juke's.
Saint Juke frowned because he couldn't sense anything special from Huo Yuhao. Not to mention, Huo Yuhao doesn't seem affected by his Divine Might.
He snorted and began unleashing even stronger Divine Might, "How dare you stare at me with those insolent eyes. Kneel!"
BOOM!
A fierce brown aura exploded from Saint Juke, trying to pressure Huo Yuhao's body into kneeling.
Huo Yuhao was indifferent to the pressure and even yawned like nothing happened.
Yawn~!
"Are you done?" Huo Yuhao asked while stretching his body lazily.
"What?" Saint Juke was shocked. How did this person not get affected by his Divine Might?
Huo Yuhao smirked behind his black mask, "What about you kneeling for me?"
Then, he revealed a bit of his Divine Might.
BOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
Saint Juke suddenly felt his body anchored to the ground. He crashed to the bottom of the sea near Loguetown as they parted away and revealed his unsightly state. Blood coming from all Saint Juke's orifices.
He also coughed a mouthful of blood and looked terrified by Huo Yuhao's aura.
'T-True Divine Might.' He looks like he has seen a ghost.
