"Moses, Moses, Commander-in-Chief Kong, this is Zhan Guo. Is there anything near Pangu City...?"
"There are some things about the Warring States period that you shouldn't be asking about. Mind your own business!" Steel Bone Sky clearly didn't want to talk about this anymore, and his tone was somewhat unpleasant.
"It's Commander-in-Chief Kong!" Zhan Guo hung up the phone, speechless. He didn't know what was wrong with Commander-in-Chief Kong; he had such a terrible temper.
Shanks and the others didn't need to say much; they already knew it was a battle between their captain and the person behind it all. Although they were a little worried, they didn't dare to go over on their own, since that level of battle was simply beyond their capabilities.
In Pangu City, Im frowned as she watched Joy Boy's attack pass right through Tian Qi's body. The attack missed; was it the ability to make the body ethereal? What a strange person.
"Not bad, not bad. As expected of the former leader of the D clan, every move you make carries destructive power. I can see that your power has not been fully unleashed. You can't exert your own power at all in Im's hands. Let me help you!" With that, Tian Qi leaped out of Joy Boy's attack range, put his hands together and summoned Hades.
Hades stuck out his tongue and bound Joy Boy, immediately trying to pull the corpse into his mouth.
"You dare!" Seeing that his favorite tool was about to be devoured by the suddenly appearing monster, Im raised his hand and launched an attack, sending an energy ball directly at the monster.
"Bang!" The energy ball passed through Hades' body and landed on Pangu City, exploding directly. Thirty meters from Pangu City were instantly razed to the ground.
"The attack power is not bad, but it's useless!" Tian Qi nodded as he watched Im's attack. Hades did not appear in physical form, so no attack was effective against it.
Within seconds, Joy Boy was pulled into Hades's enormous mouth, which immediately began to writhe and begin processing him.
Seeing her most powerful attack being devoured and the connection to her consciousness severed, Im's face darkened immediately. She then coldly said, "You destroyed my favorite tool, so today you will become that tool!" As soon as she finished speaking, Im flew up and waved her hand at Pangu City.
"I've raised you useless trash for so many years, it's time for you to repay me!" With that, the Celestial Dragons of Pangu City transformed into specks of light and flew into the sky, heading towards the ancient weapon Uranus in space.
Seeing this, Tianqi understood how the so-called ancient weapon, Uranus, was used. Hades required the souls of Celestial Dragons to power it, while Uranus required the bodies and bloodlines of Celestial Dragons to power it. It seemed that the Celestial Dragons were still somewhat useful.
"Do you really think it's worth sacrificing so many Celestial Dragons to deal with me?" Tianqi looked at Im with a strange expression.
"Hmph! As long as I kill you and get your body, it's all worth it. Besides, I raised these useless people to use the Ancient Weapons. Otherwise, I wouldn't have raised such trash!" Im snorted coldly, not caring about the Celestial Dragons' lives or deaths at all. If she didn't need these Celestial Dragons to drive the Ancient Weapons, she wouldn't have raised this group of disgusting and useless guys.
"Annihilate me? Heh, you'd better think about how to deal with him!" With that, Tian Qi pointed directly at Hades beside him. Hades opened his mouth and disappeared, revealing Joy Boy.
At this moment, Joy Boy's body was covered with six tiny black rods, and his eyes had become the same as Tian Qi's, possessing the nine-tomoe Rinnegan. Moreover, his aura was radiating outwards, making him completely different from before. Hades not only preserved and restored Joy Boy's original power but also bestowed upon him the abilities of the Rinnegan. At this moment, he was Tian Qi's seventh Outer Path. Not only had his strength been restored, but he had also gained the power of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, and he could use the power of all six paths.
"Hehe, it's great that you didn't destroy this tool. Come on, big oaf, come back to my side!" Seeing that Joy Boy had not been destroyed, Im was overjoyed and immediately activated the Hades underground. The ancient weapon Hades released a beam of light in an attempt to regain control of Joy Boy's body.
The forces of Weapon Hades and Hades of the Underworld began to clash and contend, which was also a contest between Tianqi and Im. Both sides continuously pushed their power to fight for control of Joy Boy. However, in the end, Im succumbed to the challenge, and she was ultimately defeated by Joy Boy, who had been modified by Tianqi.
"Hmph! Since you can't take back this tool, then you can all die together!" Im raised his hand and fired a beam of energy into the sky. Instantly, the entire sky slowly darkened, clearly indicating that Uranus had arrived in the pirate world from outer space.
Suddenly, a tremendous sense of oppression swept over Tian Qi. Tian Qi activated his White Eyes and looked up, and through the clouds, he saw the enormous spaceship, the Heavenly King.
However, Tianqi didn't take this Heavenly King seriously. He now had a powerful puppet tool, which had given him quite a surprise when it was modified by Hades.
"Boom!!!" The Heavenly King in the sky launched a huge burst of energy towards Tianqi, while Joy Boy charged up and aimed at the energy descending from the sky.
"Solar Impact!" A massive burst of energy erupted from Joy Boy's fist and shot out. The two forces collided and remained locked in a stalemate in mid-air.
Im stared wide-eyed at this moment, looking at Joy Boy in disbelief. This power was the same move that the big oaf had used to challenge her hundreds of years ago. She thought that this move had disappeared, but how could she not be shocked by its reappearance today? Joy Boy did not have this power in her hands, but now that he had returned to Uchiha Tensei, he directly unleashed the original power. This feeling was simply too unbearable.
"Overlord Impact!" Joy Boy unleashed another powerful strike with his other hand, the terrifying force pushing Uranus's power back to its limit. Once pushed to its limit, Joy Boy's power sent Uranus flying back into space, ending the attack.
"You...you...you wretched big oaf!" Seeing the Heavenly King being pushed out of space, Im was so angry that she stammered. She was now filled with regret. She should have kept the big oaf in his body. She had really brought trouble upon herself.
"Big oaf? I'm not some big oaf!"
"Huh! What's going on?" Im stared wide-eyed at the sight of the big, dumb guy actually speaking; she couldn't believe he was talking.
"Hehe, aren't you surprised that I can talk? This body is really strong!" Joey Boy clenched his fist, quite satisfied with his current strength.
"Hmm? That voice... it's Uchiha Tenchi!" Upon hearing Joy Boy speak again, Im recognized that it wasn't the big oaf's original voice but Uchiha Tenchi's.
"Now this body is under my control. Today, I will use this body to let you feel Joy Boy's power once again!" With that, Joy Boy attacked Im.
The two old rivals clashed again. It has to be said that although Im is a woman, her strength is definitely the strongest that Tianqi has ever seen, even stronger than Garuda.
"Boom! Boom!..."
Both of them went all out, shaking the entire Mary Joe Island. Due to their fierce clash, the entire island began to slowly sink. Because the commotion was so great, the Marineford War, which was triggered by Ace, was forced to stop.
The Whitebeard Pirates successfully rescued Ace and left without looking back, while the Marines retreated and ran towards Pangaea City. Even Kong the Steel Bone couldn't sit still anymore, because he could no longer contact the Five Elders.
"Captain Shanks, what should we do now? Should we go to support them like the Navy, or retreat directly as Captain Tianqi instructed?" Ryoma asked calmly.
"Ryoma, do you think I'm the kind of person who would abandon my comrades and run away?" Shanks asked Ryoma. Although he had always listened to Tenki, he didn't intend to listen to Tenki this time because he couldn't do such a thing.
"Understood, let's go!" Ryoma turned around and ran directly towards Pangaea Castle. Only then did he understand why Tianqi chose Shanks as captain. With his unwavering commitment to his comrades, the captain's position should belong to him.
Just as the Conqueror Pirates were about to head to Pangu City to provide support, Tianqi's voice rang directly in everyone's minds.
"Don't come to help! Shanks, take everyone and get out of here!"
"Huh?" The Conqueror Pirates were startled by the sudden voice. They all stopped in their tracks, looking puzzled. They thought they had misheard, until Tian Qi's voice rang out again.
"Didn't you hear me tell you to retreat? I haven't even left yet and you're already starting to disobey me?"
"No, Captain, it's not like that. The Navy has already abandoned Ace and gone to support him, we..."
Before Shanks could finish speaking, Tianqi's voice rang in their minds again.
"Stop talking nonsense. If I told you to leave, then leave now. Don't force me to personally escort you away. Oh, and there will be a giant's corpse on your ship. Remember to take that giant's corpse with you to Fishman Island. Consider this giant a gift I left for you. Now, let's go!"
Hearing the captain say this, the group exchanged glances and immediately decided to leave. It was Tianqi's words that reminded them that although the captain had left, his clone on Fishman Island was still there. Inviting that clone onto the ship would be the same as the captain not leaving, so what was there to worry about?
Tianqi was unaware of Shanks and the others' thoughts. He sensed that the Conqueror Pirates had left, and he nodded in satisfaction. He thought he was very authoritative, but little did he know that Shanks and the others had already attacked Tianqi's clone. If Tianqi knew, he would probably just laugh bitterly.
