An arrow flies in the sky, heading to the smoke.
As for Raymond, he did not know that Sofia is coming towards him. But even if he knew, he would not stop what he is doing right now.
Void and the Oracle has already disappeared into the sea.
Loki however is still there. Standing there on the shore…. looking at him
Loki….is a variable. So, Raymond know he must kill Kaiju as fast as possible before Loki makes a move.
He stands over Kaiju titanic body. Even though he is no longer in his dragon form, Kaiju himself is a giant-like person
He then raises his trident and then mustering the last energy in his body he stabbed downwards.
In that moment, Raymond thought maybe Loki would try to stop him. Or maybe one of the pirate lord would fly into the island and stop him
But there was no one. There is no Divine Sense that stops him or any attack. But, even without an obstruction from anyone, the trident did not reach Kaiju chest
Raymond frowned and then he cursed
'Fuck' There is a hand. And that hand is pushing up.
The trident is now being held by Kaiju. Even after all of that beating, it seems Kaiju did not fall all the way.
Kaiju grips the end of the trident and he slowly pushed upwards.
Raymond wanted to use the trident but right now, the trident is hold by two people.
The battle of will between Kaiju and Raymond causes the trident unable to know whose order it had to listen.
'Raymond, it is not that easy to kill me' Kaiju said, laughing, his laugh echoes loudly, his eyes dripping with blood.
And then Kaiju pull the trident, a tearing force jolted Raymond and his hand unconsciously release the trident.
BOOOOM!
A powerful explosion sounded, and the force comes from Kaiju body. This force then throws Raymond forty feet away.
He landed on the ground with great explosion as huge tract of land slides away.
Raymond body falling to the ground disperse the force around his body to the ground. The entire northern side of the island shakes like there is an earthquake
Kaiju holds the trident on his hand and he smiles.
The water around the shores suddenly moves like snakes as it all converge around Kaiju.
Then the water climbs his body, wherever the water passes, his injuries healed almost immediately, his energy skyrocketed to the sky.
His entire body, his entire energy is back to the top
'This is how you use the trident, Raymond' The entire seas seem to be raging and the clouds and the skies seems to have been controlled by an invisible force.
Loki finally enter the scene. Kaiju look at him and he looks at Kaiju. For a moment, they both did not make any moves.
Kaiju then look at Raymond in the distance and then said
'You wanted to save him?'
'Want to fight? He said, a smile on his face. Loki chuckles but he was not fazed.
'Kaiju, do you want to kill Raymond?' he nodded. Loki shook his head.
'You killed him today, you would die tomorrow. Correction' he suddenly said.
'Without the trident, you will die tomorrow. With the trident, maybe a few years. But you will die. And you will die in pain'
'You're threatening me?'
'Do not forget who Raymond is. You kill him, the entire World Government would dedicate its resources to find and kill you. The others would also never let you go. It would show that you are against the world power.'
He paused for a second before saying
'Not to mention that you have revealed yourself to be an Otherworlders. Some people might use this as the fire to ignite the differences between the Otherworlders and the people of this world'
'Then that also would bring the world powers into the forefront. Are you sure you could fight all of the Seven Great Powers? If you do not have such confidence to fight the world powers, then let him live. Master the trident and then try again'
Loki speak fast but he highlighted all the important things that he should pay attention to.
Kaiju went silent. He is reckless and he is barbaric. But he is not stupid.
Loki smirks and then he added
'And if you kill him, I swear to the Heaven and Earth, that I will kill you'
Kaiju eyes turns sharp. They both look at each other. Anyone looking at them could see the contrast.
Loki is six feet six. But Kaiju is around twenty-five feet tall and his presence itself is intimidating
But Loki face still have that grin. Was it bravado? Or does he have something to rely on?
But there is confidence in his eyes.
'I have the trident. As long as I am in the sea, even Death Monarch could not find me with his Divine Sense'
Kaiju is quite sure of this.
the moment he wields the trident he could feel the unlimited power that is contained within the trident itself.
It is a pity that he could not mobilize all the power in the trident.
The power and abilities he could bring out is proportional to his strength and his mental and soul power
Loki chuckles and then said
'I have the Book of Secrets. Other people might not be able to seek you. But mark my words. I could find you even if you hide in the furthest galaxy in this universe.'
Kaiju frowned and said
'It's true then? That you still are torn between the world powers and the Crime Alliance? Can I perceive this as an act of helping the world powers? I might not know much but I did hear words from the grapevine that some people suspected that your so called betrayal to the world powers is nothing more than a ruse to infiltrate the Crime Alliance.'
Loki sighed and said
'I admit I have some soft spot for some people in the world powers. But I have never worked against the interest of the Crime Alliance. I work in the interest of me. Just like the Pirate Lords, just like the Red Table members'
Kaiju did not know how to refute this.
'I could never beat you in talking'
'That, we both agree' Loki said
Kaiju once again look at Raymond body not far away from him and his eyes is wavering. He seems to be hesitating whether to kill him right here or spare him.
But, the desire to kill is still there. Since, the killing intent is still there
Loki shook his head and simply said
'Not today. If you wanted to kill him, you should not try to kill him in front of me. Since he is in front of me and I see him, so I will protect him'
BOOOM!
A powerful aura exploded from Loki, the entire sky above him cracked. The already clam seas become wild again, the water is boiling and turns into gas
Then mist started appearing out of nowhere and from the mist a silhouette of a ship could be seen. The howling of shrill voice fills the area and a cold and creepy atmosphere began to pervade the area
Kaiju went silent and then he sighed. he looks at Raymond in the distance and he sighed again. It is clear now, what he chooses to do
Even this idiot knows that choosing to go forward with his idea right now would make him too many enemies.
He still has a bit of common sense.
He sighed and his killing intent disappears.
Loki looks at Kaiju and said
'Don't forget what you promise Mary' he simply said this word and Kaiju nodded.
But before he goes he smiles and then said
'You're bluffing' he laughed and then said
'But, not many people dare to bluff in front of me. And Raymond…. he is a worthy opponent. Since he lives, then let spare him' he laughed, his laugh is unconstrained and is full of heroism and that unrestrained aura from him could infect people heart
Kaiju is right now being full of power.
He could feel the power of the sea.
One thought and he could create a tsunami all over the world.
He could feel the ground underneath him, feeling the power to use the ocean, to move the ground.
But, he also knows that it would drain him and that is why he did not do anything
He then wields the trident and pointed it toward the sky and jets of water shoots from the sea toward the sky.
The sky is high but the water reached toward the sky, like a spear charging toward the sky.
Kaiju laughed and then in a true Kaiju fashion, he simply left the island.
In the sea, he has no blindfolds on. When the island barrier was destroyed by Void, the other party tries to enter.
Raymond swings his mace toward the area, smashing a few ships.
Sofia uses her arrow to rain down a barrage of energy arrows and Kaiju went amuck, thunder and lightning filling the entire island and all around it.
Thus, these forces, whether it be from the Crime Alliance, the pirates or the allies of Void all had to retreat.
But now, the winner is decided.
Not Raymond. Not Void.
But that monster.
That giant monster, Kaiju!
He waves the trident and the ships that has been sunk rises up, the wind become calms and then as he waves his hand again, the wind picks up, the waves become calm.
Kaiju landed on Mary ship and then without waiting for anyone, the Soaring Sun pirates and the crew of the Bloody Mary sails the seas, clouds and mist covers their fleet like some kind of ghost shop.
In just a few minutes, they disappeared from the shore of this now half torn island. Loki did not follow Kaiju. Instead, he simply asks Golden Face to disperse the others.
Some people wanted to fish in troubled water and wanted to come down to the island and capture Raymond and Sofia. Raymond seems like he is going to die any minutes now.
Sofia ha arrived beside him but if the Crime Alliance wanted to attack Sofia right now and Raymond, there is a great chance that they could win.
But Loki simply told them to leave.
They don't want to listen. Yet, they know they have to. Loki is not a simple trickster that could easily be intimidated by force.
Loki is also a Disk Formation leveler and he has a lot of tricks under his sleeve. No one wanted to make an enemy with such person
So, even though they are dissatisfied, they could only click their tongue, stomp their feet and curse Loki behind his back but still they need to leave.
The sight of dozens ships leaving the island vicinity is like the epilogue of a great war.
The battle had ended and the victor has been finalized. Everyone that watched the battle and understand what is happening here, all knows that from today, a new unstable factor in the world had emerged.
The matters of the world once again become unstable
Loki look at Raymond and Sofia in the distance and he walks towards them. Sofia did not block Loki.
Loki come close to Raymond and then he simply said
'You should attack sooner. Though, I commend you. You aim for the head' Raymond coughed up blood and simply said
'I was already at my last cusp of energy when I drive down that trident.'
Loki then throws a pill to him.
'Eat that. It would heal you faster' Raymond did not hesitate as he throws the pill into his mouth.
He leans onto Sofia and he is breathing heavily.
Loki seems to enjoy the scenery not saying anything. Sofia also did not say anything. For a moment, there is only silence between them
Then Sofia ask
'Are you saving us?'
Loki nodded. Another silence descended between them. Sofia sighed
'You don't worry that the Crime Alliance would use this against you?' Loki only chuckles at this as he simply said
'I think I could craft a few reason and excuses to dismiss myself from the issue. Maybe, I would convince them that you are better off alive than dead'
'Maybe, I would bring up the Pandemonium Threat Theory or bullshit my way like I have always done all these years'
Chuckling, he added
'Don't underestimate my ability to spin the truth'
Loki seems very leisurely. He could joke and he could laugh. But both Raymond and Sofia is not in the mood to laugh and joke with him right now
Sofia simply ask
'They will accept it?'
'I'm useful to them'
He then added
'So, even if the excuse doesn't make sense, they would still say that it makes sense. If I am useless to them, even if I give the most logical excuses, they would find ways to make something else'
Chuckling, he waves his hand at Sofia and Raymond and then said
'How could you not understand this Sofia? Adventuring has made your mind dull' Then he looks at Raymond and he simply said
'Raymond knows what I am talking about. Dirty isn't it? Politics.'
Sofia only scoff at this.
'What does the Pirates want with the trident?' Loki laughed like he had heard a very stupid question.
'Why? To control the sea of course.'
'And the Crime Alliance did not mind that the pirates got it?'
'For now, they would not mind. As long as it did not fall to the hands of the world powers, I think they would tolerate the pirates having the final say in the seas.'
He looks at the skies and at the calm sea in the distance and he said
'The Crime Alliance and the Pirate Lords and other dark factions in the world all share the same enemy'
Sofia scoffed and said
'These criminals that only fight for profit and powewr….do they even know how to cooperate' Loki nodded at this and he said
'Well, we do fight against each other for benefit and power but we also know what happens if we crumble in front of the big choices. Either we learn how to pay along or get eviscerated'
'You would be surprised how even narcissistic homicidal maniac would act when they are facing a predator that does not mind tearing them to pieces'
'Death Monarch is that predator. And it is the reason why they are unified. Because they beast and these beast does not like being caged'
Smirking, like he thinks of something he continues
'And they do not want to get caged again. This is a new world. A world where the eyes of Death Monarch does not see everything'
So what, even if they lost the trident to the pirate. In the end, the pirate still needs allies. And the Crime Alliance also need allies'
If one trident could buy that alliance, I don't think the Crime Alliance would be that petty. Because both of the need all the allies they could get right now'
Sofia hearing this could not help but frowned her eyebrows
Loki on the hand continues. It was like he was teaching her. Or maybe it is a reminder?
'The trend of the Seven World powers ruling the world is an inevitability that they wanted to delay or break entirely. Bu they did not have the power to flip the chessboard like Death Monarch'
p An dD ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.cO,,m 'However, now, they have a variable that could ruin the game. Until they could have the power to flip the chessboard they would allied with each other and seek and attract people. As for what happens if they managed to flip the chessboard…. that is in the future'
He paused for a second before saying
'At least not now. For now, they would be besties with each other' But then he shakes his head
'Anyway, I am not here to discuss these matter'
His eyes then rested on Sofia and then he said
'But, you could take what I said as a reminder. Tell those people in the world power, that it is better not to underestimate the Crime Alliance now. It is no longer a prey that they could hunt whenever they wanted to' Sofia sighed as she looks at Loki.
It might seem like Loki is threatening her but why does it feel like she is reminding her.
She knows who this message is supposed to go. Loki wanted her to tell Azief about this.
Loki however did not see the concern on Sofia face... or maybe he did see it and pretended not to see it
Instead, he turns to Raymond and said
'I simply wanted to ask Raymond a question. One question.'
He looks at Raymond and then said with a smile
'Did you see it?'
Raymond look at Loki eyes and he understood what Loki means. So, he smiles and then he nodded.
Then he said
'I saw it.' Loki smiles and then he said
'Then, we could make deal with each other' he said laughing with a joyous expression.
