# Chapter 1476: Im vs. Beelzebub! (Two-in-One)

"Borrow something?"

Beelzebub was instantly stunned.

But he immediately seemed to guess something, grinning and revealing a terrifying smile.

"It's strength, right? You want to Sign Contract with me and become a Demon Possessor?"

Normally, before invading a world, the Demons of the Netherworld would use various channels to Tempt Living Beings who Desired Strength, transferring their Demonic Power to the other party through a Contract.

This would continue until the other party, in order to Obtain more Strength, opened the Gate of the Underworld under their guidance.

This method was no different from casting a wide Net.

The Quantity was determined solely by how many Living Beings the Demon itself could supply.

But as long as one successfully opened the Gate of the Underworld, it would be a Great Merit.

They would not only receive the commendation of the Highest Rank Demon of that Layer but might even gain the favor of the Underworld Will.

"Hmm?"

Im, who was just about to make a move, was also drawn by Beelzebub's words.

Demon Possessor?

Immediately, Zenon from the 'Black Clover World' flashed through his mind.

If he killed Beelzebub, the other party would likely not get more Demonic Power, which would probably affect the subsequent matter's development.

However, this thought only flashed through Im's mind for a moment.

After all, what did Zenon or the Black Clover World matter to him?

The corner of Im's calm eyes suddenly erupted with intense killing intent.

In an instant.

Brilliant golden light and scorching hot high temperature bloomed. Beelzebub, who was about to mock and tease Im, felt a chilling sensation sweep over his entire body.

In his eyes, a slash burning with golden flames came down directly.

This made Beelzebub immediately realize that the other party didn't want to be a Demon Possessor, but his life, which shocked and angered him!

Fortunately, the experience of being battle-hardened allowed Beelzebub to instinctively react.

Teleportation!

A basic technique for Space Ability Users. He instantly appeared a hundred meters away just in time.

"You!"

But just as Beelzebub was about to curse, he suddenly found that the golden flame slash inexplicably chased after him, as if it had also teleported.

Helplessly, he had to attach magic power to his right claw and take the golden, fiercely burning huge blade head-on.

【Boom!】

In an instant, this demonic claw, imbued with spatial power, shattered the Xihe Slash on the spot with its powerful might.

Light and heat raged like flowing water in front of Beelzebub.

At the same time.

Another golden flame slash appeared out of thin air behind him, cutting a long, diagonal, charred wound on his back.

"Ah!"

The intense pain made Beelzebub instinctively let out a scream.

"Damn food, you deserve to die!"

He had completely fallen into a rampage. He swung his right hand forward fiercely, and five black claw-shaped cracks immediately appeared in the air, attacking where Im was with incredible speed.

This was Spatial Severance!

Its power was so strong that it could erase any attack or defense.

However, Im merely gently raised his left index finger.

A circular space gate appeared out of thin air in front of him, instantly confiscating the claw-shaped spatial slash that had approached him.

This made Beelzebub frown tightly.

He hadn't expected a human who could control space even better than him to appear.

But he wasn't too surprised. It was just a small technique; he could completely replicate it.

"Human, let me show you the power of the Space King!"

"Space Demon Mastery!"

Beelzebub roared, raising his right hand above his head. Demonic Power with space attribute erupted in all directions like a tsunami.

At the same time.

A cube constructed from pale white radiance appeared out of thin air centered around his right hand.

And in an instant, it turned into dazzling white light and spread outwards.

Im's gaze flickered. A white whirlwind condensed under his left palm, also turning into white light and bursting outwards.

However, what formed on his side was a spherical and pale blue space.

【Buzz——————】

One square, one round, one white, one blue.

The two spatial domains collided head-on in this dimensional space of the Netherworld, mutually squeezing each other's zone.

The overly intense commotion caused the entire space itself to violently shake, and even thin, long space rifts appeared.

Beelzebub and Im didn't care about this.

They focused all their attention on the contest of spatial domains.

Not long after, the difference in strength was revealed. Im's spherical space only held a standoff for a few minutes before retreating under the oppression of the square space.

This made Beelzebub reveal a smug cold snort.

"Human, I admit you have many tricks in technique, but what truly determines victory or defeat is strength itself!"

Im remained expressionless. He wasn't actually surprised by this situation.

He had only eaten the Surgery Fruit, which is also the Space Fruit, for a mere three years.

No matter how exceptional talent he was, it was impossible for him to be stronger than Beelzebub, who had cultivated space magic for hundreds or thousands of years.

Although he had successfully awakened last year...

It was clear that this 'Space Devil' before him had a much deeper understanding of spatial rules than the 'Devil Fruit Awakening'.

The square spatial domain pressed closer and closer, already occupying two-thirds of this space.

Once Im's position was also covered, Beelzebub would have an absolute advantage.

For example, sealing the space to make him unable to move, or being directly erased.

Beelzebub had experienced this many times.

In the many worlds he had invaded, most experts were defeated by this technique.

It had to be said that the Path of Space was truly an existence that transcended many kinds of strength.

The only things that could resist it were time and gravity...

This was Beelzebub's knowledge.

"In that case, Im will also get a little serious."

Seeing the edge of the square spatial domain about to reach him, Im spoke lightly.

"Oh?"

"Do you have any other special move? Then show it to me!"

Beelzebub didn't care, laughing arrogantly.

These humans always liked to use some secret technique, ultimate move, or finishing move at the end.

But they all ended up with an anticlimactic result.

Who knew that as soon as the words fell.

A heaven-shaking loud noise turned into a visible sound wave that swept across the entire area.

Beelzebub's laughter came to an abrupt halt, and his expression instantly froze.

In his eyes.

He saw a brilliant golden aura suddenly erupt from Im's body.

The dimensional space, which was already precarious and covered in cracks, was actually blasted open the moment the aura rose into a light pillar.

This instantly brought Im and Beelzebub to the high altitude of the second layer of the Netherworld's real world.

At the same time.

Golden light spread like a tsunami, fiercely bombarding the square spatial domain controlled by Beelzebub.

This was Im's God's Territory, a Domain completely composed of Colorless Haki.

It was also his true strength, which he had cultivated for nearly a thousand years.

"What Im wants to borrow is your heart. Offer it up."

Im, wearing a white robe with golden threads, held the Xihe, which was burning with golden flames, tightly in one hand, and looked at Beelzebub opposite him with a calm gaze.

"What did you say?!"

Beelzebub looked at the spatial domain being pushed back and gradually surrounded by the golden aura, filled with shock and anger.

He immediately released even more vast magic power from inside the body to resist the powerful oppression of the golden aura.

"Offer up your heart."

The Nichirin Blade in Im's hand... Xihe suddenly turned into golden light and appeared above.

It emitted dazzling light and heat, like a sun had appeared in the second layer of the Netherworld.

This not only illuminated the entire world but also attracted countless demons to raise their surprised gazes.

And Xihe itself rapidly grew larger and longer in the fiercely burning golden flames, while also generating a large amount of crackling Haki lightning.

"That! What is that!"

Beelzebub felt an unprecedented danger from the Gigantification Xihe.

The purest instinct was warning him that if he didn't block or dodge this technique, he would truly die!

Run!

This made Beelzebub make a decisive decision and prepare to use space magic to escape.

Demons didn't care about things like face.

But he was astonished to find that his teleportation was severely interfered with.

This interference mainly came from the surrounding golden aura, and also from the faint blue light hidden within the golden light.

That was Im's Space Fruit Ability.

He was indeed not as good as Beelzebub in this aspect.

But combined with Colorless Haki to form a seal, preventing spatial teleportation was not a problem.

Not to mention it also contained some technique from the Ninja World Barrier Ninjutsu...

So Beelzebub's only choice was to fight desperately and defeat Im head-on.

But before that, he had to receive the radiance of Xihe descending from the sky!

【Boom——————】

The next moment.

A terrifying explosion that shook the heavens and earth and resounded throughout the Netherworld formed in the pitch-black sky.

Its power was so great that the earth shattered and space trembled.

All the demons and mountain peaks within a thousand-kilometer diameter were reduced to dust in the sweeping golden light...

It wasn't until nearly an hour later that the terrifying commotion gradually subsided.

Only a large black hole nearly a hundred meters in diameter was left in the sky.

That was the space hole left by Beelzebub during his final desperate counterattack.

If a demon mustered the courage to drill into it.

Perhaps there was a chance to travel to other worlds, or even other universes.

But the greater possibility was death from a space storm...

Not long after.

One terrifying figure after another appeared in the high altitude.

They were Lucifero, Megicula, Lucifuge, Baal, Asmodeus, Belphegor, and other Supreme Demons from various layers of the Netherworld.

"Beelzebub's aura has disappeared, and there's a human's aura..."

"Could he have been killed?"

"How is this possible? That's Beelzebub! Even if you can't beat him, who can keep him here!"

"I can."

Lucifero coldly glanced at Baal from the third layer, who immediately became terrified and uneasy, not daring to speak.

However, Baal didn't think he was bragging.

Lucifero's Gravity Magic indeed possessed the power to distort even time and space.

"Where's Adramelech?"

Lucifero asked.

This second layer of the Netherworld was under his control, so he should have been the first to appear.

"This..."

None of the demons present could answer. Fortunately, a familiar sound suddenly rang out nearby at this moment.

"Coming! Coming!"

Adramelech instantly appeared like a black shadow, squinting his eyes and asking with doubt, "What happened here?"

"Beelzebub is missing. As for you, where did you go?"

Lucifero looked at Adramelech with an expressionless face.

"I took a lap around the Ninja World that the first layer is invading, and conveniently caught a few live ones to search their memory."

"Don't tell me, we seem to have encountered an interesting opponent this time..."

Adramelech replied calmly.

After hearing his words, Lucifero put away his anger, because he also placed importance on the Ninja World.

After all, the death of two Supreme Demons was no triviality.

"It seems that the human who infiltrated and exchanged blows with Beelzebub should be from this Ninja World..."

Megicula, who was on the same seventh layer as Lucifero, chuckled, covering her mouth.

She didn't seem to care about Beelzebub's situation.

This was indeed the fact; there was no friendship between demons.

"The key point is that this human has the ability to bypass the first layer and defeat Beelzebub. This is a dangerous signal..."

Lucifuge said thoughtfully.

He ruled the sixth layer of the Netherworld and was also one of the 'Three Pillars' who assisted Lucifero.

Baal cold snorted, "That Moryo on the first layer is truly a waste! He can't even guard a gate properly!"

Belphegor from the fourth layer, also one of the 'Three Pillars' assisting Megicula, smiled:

"I don't think it's his fault. Being able to defeat Beelzebub means the other party has the strength to resist space magic, and it's even very likely that they are a Space Ability User themselves. Even if it were us, we wouldn't have noticed."

Then Asmodeus, who ruled the fifth layer of the Netherworld and assisted Beelzebub, reminded coldly.

"Whether Beelzebub was killed or not, that cannot be concluded yet. He might have just left here and moved to another battlefield..."

"So what do we do now?" Adramelech asked with a lazy demeanor, spreading his hands.

Lucifero looked at Lucifuge, who immediately gave his opinion.

"Form into groups of two, stay vigilant against further attacks, and at the same time, intelligence gathering, preparing for a full-scale invasion of the Ninja World to completely destroy it!"

Adramelech asked, "What if the Spade Kingdom opens the Gate of the Underworld during this time?"

"This..." Lucifuge hesitated.

Their focus over the years had always been on another world.

And they had achieved great harvest; they had already developed more than ten Demon Possessors alone.

It was estimated that the Gate of the Underworld would be successfully opened soon.

"Deal with this Ninja World first. We can't keep waiting for something that might happen."

Lucifero, as the Strongest Demon King, made the decision.

"You can share the intelligence you obtained, Adramelech. I hope it won't disappoint me..."

The tone carried a strong warning, and anyone could hear that his mood was very bad.

Fortunately, Adramelech had enough confidence in the intelligence he had gathered.

Regarding that human force called the World Government!

On the other side.

Leaving the Netherworld and returning to the Ninja World, Im was unaware that his actions had caused nervousness and vigilance among many Supreme Demons.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

At this moment, Im was sitting on the Empty Throne in the Celestial Dragon Realm, examining a scarlet heart floating in mid-air.

That's right, this was Beelzebub's Demon Heart.

It was nearly twenty centimeters wide and nearly thirty centimeters high, meaning it was half a meter large!

At the same time, the wisps of black qi emanating from it made Im frown slightly.

Indeed, the heart contained powerful Demonic Power.

If he ate this raw, he would 100% become a new Space Devil.

So he still had to find a method to purify it first.

Im had no choice but to put it into his Space Ring, preparing to find someone to process it with Divine Magic or the Wash-Wash Fruit Ability.

Meanwhile.

After this combat with Beelzebub.

It also gave him a clearer understanding of the strength of the Supreme Demons.

If two Beelzebubs teamed up, it would be very difficult for him to succeed.

Based on this, he speculated that Lucifero's strength might be similar to his own, or even stronger?

However, Im wasn't nervous because of this. At worst, he would just use his cheat!

Presumably, Lucifero, being a Demon, wouldn't think he was despicable at that time.

Fortunately, this trip to the Netherworld was relatively uneventful.

He not only completed his basic target but also gained an unexpected harvest.

The only regrettable thing was that the Star Map did not recognize the second layer of the Netherworld and did not grant new Star Gate Authority...
