"Wano again..."
Rob exited the art store in Kuri.
After completing his work in Flevance country, he decides to visit Wano country, where he is still considered the country's guardian after Oden had promised to do so.
Oden's journey on Roger's ship was nearing the end, so he was likely to return to Wano soon.
But this does not mean that he should not interfere in the affairs of the country, lately, many problems have arisen in Wano because of a certain bastard.
At first, Rob wanted to turn a blind eye to Moria's actions because he knew he wouldn't deviate from the original storyline.
But it seems that Rob was delusional. Moria did not stop after stealing Ryuma's corpse and the national treasure (Shusui) but even he tried to steal the royal tomb!
The tomb that has kept the corpses of many Kozuki clan kings through many generations, of course, their swords are kept with them too, the point is they are not any ordinary swords but no less good than Oden's sword, Enma!
That, of course, didn't show up in the original story until the point where Wano arc got to, but it's actually there is, and that's normal, any long-term royal family has a royal tomb.
In the royal tomb, the corpses were kept intact just as Ryuma's corpse was preserved intact.
It's said that Ryuma was the patriarch of the Shimotsuki clan 800 years ago, and being the hero who saved Wano country on many occasions was given the honor of embalming his corpse using the secret way of the Kozuki clan.
But no one expected the God of Sword's corpse to fall into the hands of a young necromancer in the future. (Moria is considered a necromancer.)
“Sigh~” Rob sighed.
In fact, he didn't want to move against Moria. the people who give him a lot of EXP points when they read One Piece manga are the characters with weight in the story, like a future Shichibukai, Moria is such a person to him, especially with the astrological number of EXP points he has to collect to take the system to the next level.
[Level 16: 2345678/200000000 EXP]
It could be said that he'll get 10,000 EXP from 1,000,000 who have read or watched his shows.
But for some reason, reading One Piece manga is still the main source of the exp points, only one person like Moria can give him 1000 EXP by reading one volume from One Piece, and that's too much compared to before.
So, if he doesn't have to, Rob would never want to kill a great source of the exp for him.
But luckily for him, it looks like he won't have to deal with him.
"Rob-dono! Thank you so much for coming for us, but it looks like Moria ran away from Wano when he heard you were coming."
Rob looked strangely at Kin'emon who was talking without taking his eyes off the book in his hands.
“Ah, no problem, you can continue reading, I won’t bother you anymore.”
Rob shook his head as he left, he had forgotten that he had released a new volume of Solo Leveling just a few moments ago, which is why this sight was too normal.
Lots of people are huddled and outside the art store, holding a book in their hands and concentrating so hard, completely forgetting what's going on around them.
A silent atmosphere completely covered the town.
Even the akazaya were reading the manhwa with wide eyes and hurried breaths as if they were living with the hunters the experience of being chased by a colossal statue.
Rob summoned his paper wings and soared toward Onigashima.
After using the observation haki to cover the whole Wano, he noticed Moria was there.
This bastard wasn't really planning to escape, it seemed like he wasn't afraid of him enough.
He doesn't want to kill him, doesn't mean he won't beat him until his mother won't recognizes him.
==============================
...
..
Sung Jinwoo: (That statue attacks if you're above a certain height.)
(I understand the meaning of the first commandment now!)
Sung Jinwoo: Everyone! Bow towards the statue of God!
Kim Sangshik: What? Have you lost your mind, Sung Jinwoo?!
Park Gi-Sool: What do you mean, "Bow"?!
Song Chi-Yui: You've figured something out, haven't you?
Sung Jinwoo: Yes. It'll attack if you stand above a certain height, but won't if you stoop down.
That's what "Thou shall worship god" means.
So if you lower yourself and bow before the statue...
...
..
.
Park Gi-Sool: What the f*ck! What's with that face...?!
Sung Jin Woo: Its expression... Changed!!
==============================
Kin'emon and Kanjuro's expressions flinched, and they threw the books away...
“W-what with this creepy face! So scary!”
Kanjuro's expression trembled when he saw the frightening God's Smile... It reminded him of his true personality.
He almost revealed his cover because of his excessive enthusiasm.
Had he not caught himself at the last moment, he would have regained his true face and shouted, "What's the true art!!!!? This is true art!!!!"
As for Kin'emon, he was truly terrified, he had never seen such a hideous smile before, causing him to experience the horror that Jinwoo and his partners in tribulation felt.
Not only him but as the Wano people continued to read the first chapter of the second volume, they quickly arrived at the scenery when all the hunters fell on their knees to worship the statue of God.
Gasps were heard as the colossal statue started to stand up and crushed the hunters in the fleshy paste as insects.
“Oh my Gosh... This is terrifying!”
“Why are all titans so terrifying!”
“This stone titan isn’t even the size of a small sea king but is so terrifying?!”
“Do they have to praise God now?! How are they going to do that? Looks like Jinwoo is the most helpful person among those group of idiots.”
"What does this person mean by being from church choir?"
"It didn't work! He was also crushed!"
...
Ohara;
“Is it smiling!? Could just a smile make me terrified!?”
Shakky put out her cigarette but quickly lit another one. She was taking a break from work to read today's Solo Leveling volume.
Being a store goddess and an S-rank hunter at the same time has a lot of perks, inside and out of the art store only Rob can order her to do something.
If she didn't want, she won't do anything literally.
But she loved working in the art store too much so she kept taking orders for anyone even though she didn't need to because the number of store goddesses in Ohara was already enough.
Shakky continued to read the manhwa and learn about this magical world.
Initially, the events were still inside the double dungeon but that didn't stop her from noticing how far the world had progressed inside the manhwa in terms of the characters' clothes and their behavior.
The world looked similar to what appeared in the manga of Bleach which she loves by the way and the HXH anime which had scenes that made her shed tears for the first time in a very long time.
Unconsciously, Shakky's curiosity about these civilized worlds was growing.
“That big statue is terrifying isn’t it, Big Sister Shakky!”
Suddenly, a little girl appeared embracing a Solo Leveling volume in her arms inside Shakky's lap.
“Hmm, your dad is more terrifying, little girl.”
“Huh? My dad?!”
"No! Hmph! My dad is the kindness person in the world!"
Shakky laughed when she heard the reply of Little Robin, who puffed her cheek in anger.
"You really don't know how terrifying your dad is?!"
She loved teasing this smart little girl.
"My dad is only terrifying to the bad guys, and I'll be like my dad in the future... I really don't see what my dad draws so scary, to me this stone titan is so cute!"
"Huh?!"
