"No... he should just have a grudge against Viktor, right? Why would that be?"

"What's going on? Are we still going to fight or not?"

The audience watched the sea god cautiously above the waterspout.

They frowned, their eyes revealing endless doubt, suspicion, and anticipation.

A mix of emotions left everyone confused and perplexed.

A mix of emotions left everyone feeling somewhat confused.

They were suspicious of the sea god's sudden betrayal, wondering if he was just putting on a show.

He feigned an attack on Viktor, but in reality, he might be secretly preparing to ambush the golden-armored, silver-haired youth.

But they also hoped that the sea god would stand by their side and fight against Victor together.

This means that the war between the gods has become a mere formality.

Their chances of winning against Viktor will also increase significantly.

However, this does not mean they would so easily believe in the sea god.

After all, he had always been on Viktor's side before this.

If they turn against us now, what if they turn against us again later?

Therefore, to gain their complete trust, a definitive condition is still needed.

Athena was fully aware of this.

This condition is precisely what the human side possesses.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

At that moment, a sound surrounded by crisscrossing thunder resounded from the sky, a sound that shook the very soul.

"Brother, I've said it before."

"I have always welcomed your return."

Whoosh—!

Upon hearing Zeus's words, countless spectators immediately understood.

No wonder that Aquaman suddenly turned against Victor.

It turns out that their great God-King has exerted his power!

Yes, everyone remembered at this moment.

The statues that Zeus summoned in the arena could correspond to each of the gods present.

Apart from Ares, who has already turned to dust,

Moreover, the statue of the sea god was also in that queue at the time.

Besides, Thor and Poseidon are both god-kings!

It's perfectly normal for them to call each other brothers, isn't it?

Sure enough, their relationship must be very close.

That's why Poseidon chose to abandon darkness and embrace light, turning against Victor and joining their side!

The initial apprehension and doubt towards the sea god vanished, replaced by overwhelming joy and excitement.

The reason why their attitude changed so quickly is largely thanks to their God-King.

Although Zeus's strength might be considered almost negligible by many viewers,

His fighting prowess is inferior to that of the goddess of justice, and even his wife can be stolen away by his brother.

Even the supreme god-king apologized to humanity.

Viktor didn't take him seriously from the start.

However, it cannot be denied that, despite being a god-king, his image in their hearts lacked any real authority or awe; he was almost no different from an ordinary person.

However, for humans,

They still have unwavering faith in this god-king!

They not only helped them rebuild the city of Shulbourne, but also made it more advanced.

Most importantly, he stood on the side of humanity from beginning to end.

Because of this connection with Zeus, countless humans also felt that...

As Zeus's good brother, the sea god was equally trustworthy.

Okay, that's how things have developed.

Athena's predictions matched almost everything that happened.

But she was incredibly curious about one thing.

Why does Poseidon seem completely unafraid of Victor?

Poseidon, like them, was also infected with the virus.

The most obvious proof is the ferocious pupil on his forehead.

As Victor said, both she and Poseidon were summoned by Victor.

Although Athena was somewhat uncomfortable with Victor referring to Poseidon as a "dog."

Because she always felt that these words seemed to include her as well.

However, putting all that aside, the bigger question is,

Even if Poseidon finds a way to isolate the virus's control, making it impossible for Victor to manipulate him,

But what good can his rebellion do alone?

The other gods all sided with Victor.

Even if Poseidon joins the other side, they still have five gods here.

Including Viktor, that makes a total of six combatants.

Meanwhile, on Poseidon's side...

Including Aubrey, the Human Queen, and the girl wearing a trench coat in the same style as Victor's,

In addition to the goddess of justice, Zeus, the king of the gods, and Poseidon, the god of the sea,

There were exactly six of them.

They are equal in number.

What made Poseidon believe that joining Zeus's side would guarantee victory over Victor?

But soon, Poseidon's voice, like the ebb and flow of ocean waves, followed:

Are you still stubbornly clinging to your delusions?

He paid no attention to Viktor below, and even ignored Viktor's words just now.

But his sudden remark caused Athena's pupils to contract slightly, and she looked up at him.

He watched as divine power flickered in the other's calm, unwavering blue eyes, as it gently swept over the gods standing to Victor's side.

God of Love, God of Fire, God of Light, Goddess of the Hunt

And her, the goddess of wisdom.

That sentence was clearly spoken by Poseidon to them.

What does this mean?

Then, Poseidon's next words made Athena's eyes widen:

Wake up.

"That human has no ability to control us at all."
