Chapter 220: One finger opening the sea and commands the heavens (1)
The world was in chaos and is preparing for the battle of the era. The Death Monarch and the World Government.
The whole world had gotten the news. All four corners of the world had heard about the impeding battle.
Many mercenaries, hunters, warriors and levers who is weak and fears death did as best as they can to not be near the site of battle and some kingdoms were hoping that the Island of Peace is not hiding in their sea area.
The battle would surely shakes the world and brought on calamity and disasters.
By now, people of the world could quantified the amount of damage a certain expert could do.
For Seed Forming they could slice mountains and bring great damage and could take on ten thousands of Orb Condensing soldiers alone.
But if they were to fight Energy Disperse Stage high realm then at least they could fight ten and escape.
But if they were surrounded by an entire corps made of Energy Disperse Stage levelers regardless of whether that Energy Disperse Stage levelers is the low, or high realm, then they would not be able to get out without suffering some form of heavy injuries.
On some cases they might loses their life.
But Disk Forming?
Now…..that is a different case altogether.
Probably there was only one person that could fight beyond levels that the whole world knows and that is the Death Monarch.
He fought an Eight Horn Weronian when he was just a Seed Forming High Realm expert.
On the other side of the world, a black blur that produces sonic waves every time it sails through the clouds is flying with supersonic speed
Now that the news a black blur seems to be heading toward the Atlantic Ocean and Seven Battlestar that appeared almost immediately behind that black blur, everyone knows that the Death Monarch has started to move.
There is only one builder that have Battlestar Design that is not from either World Government, League of Freedom or the Republic and that is Budiman.
There is also the White Tiger Army, Myrmidon army and the Valkyries consisting of woman berserkers and tough warriors that Freya recruited.
There is not to mention the genius Alchemist Sina that boast ultimate supporting power in terms of her pills effectiveness.
This lineup would terrify any factions in the world. Imagine the alarm going on in the Island of Peace right now.
The White Owl, that information gathering group suddenly release a news that fuels the common people excitement even more.
The World Government is on full alert, activating all their formations, from magical formation, to arrays and magical cannons were all also given permission to be deployed onto the rampart.
The order was to shoot anything that draws near the barrier. It raises up the excitement but also make people amazed by the White Owl faction
How could they reported and get news from inside the World government?
This feat was incredible considering the surveillance of the Island against intruders
The White Owl seems to be able to see everything in the world and all information is at their fingertips.
If not for people don’t know who is the member of this White Owl factions, the Death Monarch would surely seek the members of the White Owl and forces them to divulge the location of the World Government,
Even the high echelon of the World Government was shocked when they read the news and wanted to investigate their aids.
But with the Death Monarch fast approaching they could only delay that matter and keep preparing.
Weapons lined up the four corners of the Island.
This time the World Government intends to resist.
Admiral Pandikar during the absence of the Death Monarch about five days ago seek the Illusion Archmaster Hikigaya on a secret trip to Japan asking him for his help and offer him many artifacts and treasures.
Oreki who was on the island on the other hand seems quiet and never express any stance.
Unlike any other people on the Island people like Hikigaya and Oreki possess a certain freedom in terms of their participation in any conflicts of the World Government.
With their position and power it would be no problem for them to secede from the World Government.
If not for the grudge that Jean has against Oreki and Hikigaya that actively obstruct his ambition to conquer Europe when Jean was in the World Government, Oreki and Hikigaya would have no reservation to secede.
But Jean is the Chancellor of the Republic and wield enormous power and influence.
If Hikigaya and Oreki secede and lose their power in the World Government not only would they make enemies with the World Government, the Republic will also not let them go.
They are not like Azief who could abandon all caution to the wind.
Oreki and Hikigaya still has family living in the world, and even though they both power leveling their family that would only work until Energy Disperse Stage.
Seed Forming and Disk Forming is the true mark of an expert nowadays.
Not to mention in Disk Forming, no disk is quite the same. They also have many friend that people could target.
Their situation and circumstances did not allow them to act like Azief that could act wantonly and recklessly.
Does this means Azief have no friend that could be threatened?
No
The Death Monarch has few friend but each of his friend were all great characters in the world, heroes and heroines in their own right, formidable and awe inspiring.
Even Wang Jian who was Azief most loyal subordinate is a great character and if not for his anger and his rashness in attacking the World Government, how could the World Government easily captured him?
On the other hand, of all the news that the White Owl reported, one news that was not reported that gains people curiosity.
The White Owl not once reported the return of the Earthshaker Raymond. This makes people felt something is wrong.
As one of the major expert of the World Government, he is nowhere to be seen.
Even when Poland was subjugated by the Death Monarch, the World Government stand still and the Earthshaker, one of the pillars of the World Government is nowhere to be seen.
For the Republic to stand still is reasonable.
After all they have somewhat a relationship with the Death Monarch considering that Katarina seems to be close to the Death Monarch.
Not to mention the Death Monarch ridding of World Government influence in Poland is a good thing for them.
Why would they move?
But the World Government silence is strange.
Before, the World Government once said that their Grand Commander was in training in a secret place.
But now the stake is totally different. This is no longer the matter of territory possession. The Death Monarch is directly wanting to assault the headquarters of the World Government.
This is a blatant provocation, and declaring of war
True, the World Government possesses millions of soldiers but people still felt this could only drive away the Death Monarch.
And to do this the World Government would have to pay a heavy price. It is better to let expert fight experts instead of throwing countless of lives towards the Death Monarch
This is a battle that would involve the entire World Government and probably affected the world in days to come.
How could the vanguard of the World Government be absent?
President Hirate in the absence of the Earthshaker, rarely shows his face anymore. Now, that the entire Island is preparing for war, how could the President of the World Government not show his face and talk to his people?
This perplexes many people.
On the Island however, a holographic projection of President Hirate appears on the Balcony of the Purple Palace addressing the soldiers and giving a speech that they would not be intimidated by a single man.
Pandikar was the loudest person acclaiming the President word with twelve people applauding the President speeches.
Everything seems to be ready for things to come to a head
