"However, to my surprise, after losing my companionship, Im believed that my demise was entirely due to the influence of human desires."

"Therefore, as one of the roots of the Devil Fruit Tree, Im directly chose to absorb and control the Devil Fruit Tree, causing countless Devil Fruits to flow into the sea. At the same time, Im also collected a large number of Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits and infused them with his own will, making those who used Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits for the first time become Im's servants!"

"Those Mythical Zoan servants controlled by Im are less human than they are merely vessels of the will of Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit users. Under Im's influence, they transform into true Mythical Zoan monsters and begin to destroy humanity."

"The war that lasted for countless years began, but in the end... humanity was defeated, and the two continents even broke into countless fragments during the war."

"Afterwards, countless humans became domesticated slaves. Im extracted a large amount of bloodline factors from Devil Fruits and integrated them into humans, attempting to create a pure biological race that conformed to Im's fantasies to completely replace humans and accompany her."

"Humans... have also been constantly resisting, launching countless counterattacks in the name of freedom, and eliminating one mythical beast species after another."

"Finally, as the number of mythical beast monsters decreased to a certain level, my consciousness awakened in a man named Qiao Yinbo, and I assisted Qiao Yinbo in establishing a brand new, vast kingdom, gathering all possible power in an attempt to completely defeat Yinmu and restore the freedom and peace that this sea deserves..."

"However, with Im personally taking action, Joiimboin, who had misjudged Im's power, failed, and the capital city of Ravdru was sunk into the depths of the sea..."

"To record all of this, I left behind the Poneglyphs and, with my last strength, preserved Laugh Tale deep underground, hoping that future generations will know the truth of humanity's past history and that the only way to defeat Im is not to kill her human form!"

"In a sense, Im's human form is the embodiment of the will of 'Sun Tree Eve' over countless years, and even in a sense, it is the embodiment of the will of this ocean. It is almost impossible to forcibly destroy Im's human form by force. The only way is to destroy the 'Sun Tree Eve' body and sever Im's connection to the world and the Devil Fruit Tree..."

"In addition, I left behind the ancient weapons 'Pluto' and 'Poseidon' in the sea, which can be used to deal with 'Eve of the Sun,' as well as 'Uranus' preserved in Laugh Tale."

"If 'Uranus the Heavenly King' is to be used, the only way is for a descendant of free will who once lived on my side of the continent and possessed the name 'D' to eat 'Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit Mythical Zoan-type Sun God Form'."

"This is the greatest and last treasure I leave to all mankind, and at the same time, I express my apology to all mankind."

When Sora read to the end, the entire Straw Hat crew was completely stunned!

The so-called "ONE PIECE" is actually this kind of thing. In a sense, it is indeed the greatest treasure in the history of mankind, but for individuals, it is undoubtedly the biggest joke.

Kong's expression was also extremely solemn as he spoke.

"Zoan type, Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Sun God Mode. I've never heard of this Devil Fruit before. How do I use 'Uranus, the King of Gods'?"

Just then, Luffy, who had been staring blankly ever since he saw the giant stone tablet in front of him, suddenly turned around. His hair gradually turned pure white, and flames like the sun began to entwine around his body.

"Um... Sora, the true name of the 'Gum-Gum Fruit' after it is fully awakened seems to be 'Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit Mythical Zoan-type Sun God Form', or rather, it should be called 'Nika Form'."

Luffy covered his chest with one hand, as if listening to some sound, and then spoke.

[Chapter 828. The Collapse of the Red Earth Continent]

"Boom!"

At the summit of the Red Line, flames that incinerate everything and frost that freezes everything erupt simultaneously, and the battle between Yann and Im fully unfolds.

It's just... strong!

too strong!

Facing Im, who was truly beginning to make his move, Yan felt as if he were facing the entire world.

Even though Arn had pushed the power of "Zanka no Tachi" and "Daiguren Hyōrinmaru" to their limits, the aftershocks alone created a terrifying phenomenon on the Red Line continent, with crimson flames raging across the sky and frost spreading across the land. Arn was almost completely suppressed.

"boom!"

With another blow, Im's fair arm easily broke through the 15 million degree heat and slammed into Yaen's chest.

"Sever the Void!"

With a soft shout, an incredibly sturdy, invisible barrier appeared out of thin air.

"boom!"

However, the "High-Rank Binding Spell: Sky Breaker," which was powerful enough to withstand Whitebeard's full-force attack, shattered under Im's attack and then crashed onto the Zanpakuto that Arn was using to block it.

"Boom!"

At that moment, Yann felt as if the entire world had crashed down on him, and his body was blasted away like an arrow released from a bow.

Im, who appeared both holy and harmless, barely moved, yet appeared before Yaen at an incredible speed.

'No! That's not speed, that's teleportation...'

Arn was startled and slammed the "Broken Flame Katana" into the ground, slowing his backward flight. At the same time, endless flames erupted from Arn's center.

"Broken Blade - South - Fire Burial Formation for Ten Trillions of Deaths!"

In an instant, as the crimson flames completely engulfed and concealed Arn's figure, countless charred skeletons also emerged from the flames, advancing wave after wave towards the front of Im.

Facing the charred skeleton legion, Im remained unfazed. With a casual flick of her delicate white hand, she reduced large swathes of the charred skeleton legion to ashes. Im, who was in the midst of the intense heat, was completely unaffected.

"Bang bang bang..."

Countless skeleton legions turned to ashes, only to reappear endlessly in the flames.

Finally, as if tired of this boring game, Im, as a collection of wills, suddenly erupted with an unprecedented impact, completely pushing away everything centered on himself.

In an instant, A'en, who was hiding outside the "Burning Flame Katana - South - Fire Fire Ten Trillion Death Burial Formation", only felt a flash of white light in front of him, and a spherical pit with a radius of ten miles appeared in front of him, with Im floating in mid-air.

"What...is this thing?" Yaen looked extremely shocked, as if he had been momentarily distracted.

At that very moment, Im suddenly appeared behind Arn, her fair arm easily piercing through Arn's chest.

However... the expected warmth did not appear.

Instead, a chilling sensation washed over him. Arn, pierced by Im, quickly transformed into an ice sculpture and became firmly attached to Im.

The real Aon appeared behind Im, briefly releasing the power of "Daiguren Hyōrinmaru", gripping "Zanka no Tachi" tightly with both hands, and unleashing a surge of Conqueror's Haki and Armament Haki.

"The Blazing Blade - North - Heaven and Earth Ashes"

In an instant, the extreme flames were completely condensed into a single sweeping strike. The terrifying burst of flames even evaporated the current peak of the Red Earth Continent by a hundred meters.

Unlike before when it seemed impossible to inflict any effective damage on Im, this time... Im was directly cut in half at the waist.

"Did it work?"

However, in just a moment, Im was completely restored to his original state, and the part that had been erased by "Broken Blade - North - Ashes of Heaven and Earth" was no longer visible at all.

For the first time, a hint of doubt appeared on Im's face. His red eyes swept over Yaen several times before he spoke.

"It is indeed a power completely different from Devil Fruits, or even the Haki system of humans themselves. If that attack had hit the sea head-on, its strength would have been enough to completely wipe out a section of the sea."

After a pause, Im spoke with a hint of self-contradiction.

"But you are clearly human. Could it be that there is another source behind you that is completely different from Devil Fruits?"

Arn's expression was now extremely serious and solemn. "Broken Blade - North - Ashes of Heaven and Earth" was undoubtedly the most destructive move Arn possessed, but... its effectiveness was still limited.

What exactly is this Im in front of me?

If Arn could still sense the aura of life in the nineteen creators of the World Government, the feeling that Im gave Arn was like a combination of Conqueror's Haki.

How do we... solve the problem with Im?

Just then, the red earth beneath Yann's feet suddenly trembled with an unprecedented magnitude, and Im's expression changed drastically.

Perhaps it wasn't just the Red Line where Yann was located, but the entire Red Line that completely divided the sea in two that began to shake.

“‘Uranus the Heavenly King’? Nika? Are you trying to stop me again?” For the first time, Im revealed his immense anger.

The next moment, to the utter astonishment of the world, the Red Line began to collapse rapidly, with countless clods of earth falling into the sea.

What Yaen didn't expect was that with the collapse of the Red Line, what appeared inside the Red Line was a towering tree, whose canopy above the sea was almost 10,000 meters high!

What people previously thought was the "Eve of the Sun Tree" was actually just a tiny, insignificant branch supporting the Sabaody Archipelago.

At the same time, the "Merry" soared into the sky from the sea and rapidly approached the direction of Yann.

“Father, Im is the embodiment of will, and its true form is ‘Sun Tree Eve’!”

As Yingna roared, Yaen immediately reacted, and the "Broken Flame Katana" in his hand erupted with incredibly hot flames once again!

This time, however, the flames, powerful enough to incinerate everything, surged straight towards the towering canopy of the "Eve of the Sun Tree" below.

However, before the flames could reach the canopy of the "Sun Tree Eve," Im appeared in front of Arn and threw a punch at him.

Arn instinctively tried to dodge, but suddenly felt as if the space around him had frozen under the influence of some terrifying will.

[Chapter 829. Freedom!]

Just then, an arm wreathed in bright yellow flames suddenly and incredibly stretched over a thousand meters, blasting towards Im and sending him flying.

The next moment, a boy with a bright smile and a strangely familiar face appeared in front of Yann.

"Luffy?" Yan asked, guessing.

"Hey, Uncle Yan, you look so much cooler than before!!" Luffy greeted Yan with a bright smile.

Yann looked Luffy over and asked, puzzled, "What's with this form of yours?"

"It's probably similar to the awakening of a Devil Fruit. This power can be called the 'Sun God Nika Form'!" Luffy replied with a grin.

However, before Yann could inquire about Luffy's condition, Im's angry voice rang out.

"Nika, are you still going to oppose me?"

Hehehe~

Luffy said with a smile.

"Im? I have learned about your past from Nika's will, so I must stop you no matter what. Human freedom should not be restricted!"

"free??!!"

Im suddenly became frantic and hysterical, his perfect face contorting as he spoke.

"Why can humans have freedom, but I must be bound by the world, and even you have abandoned me to pursue so-called freedom?"

"Why? Why? Why?"

"I will forever strip this sea of ​​freedom! Humans, and all other races, shall be forever bound!!!"

Upon hearing this, Yann's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately realized something...

Im, perhaps cannot leave the "Yang Shu Eve" area!

"Im, freedom can never be bound. As long as life exists on this sea, the will to be free will never end..."

Luffy spoke with unwavering determination, and several different figures faintly appeared behind him, their almost tangible will emanating from them.

"No matter how many times, Im, even if we fail countless times, as long as oppression remains, the 'bell of liberation' will always ring out in the sea."

Im laughed maniacally, his face contorted in a grimace.

"Hahaha, Nika, but you, who have abandoned the other source of the Devil Fruit Tree, can never contend with me. The will of humanity... is even more insignificant."

"Even if you dismantle the Red Line with the power of 'Uranus the King,' there is no longer anything in this sea that can destroy my true form."
