Chapter 990: The Threat of the Underworld Demon King!
Naamah even felt a strong sense of exhaustion coming from within its body at this moment.
But its face was full of a joyful smile.
However, Sakazuki's subsequent action caused Naamah's smile to freeze.
【Boom!!!】
Instantly, the volcano behind Sakazuki suddenly erupted, spewing out a massive amount of magma radiating infinite heat.
But they didn't shoot straight into the sky; instead, after flying into mid-air, they drew an arc and poured down towards Naamah's position.
The entire process looked incredibly smooth, and the magma within the volcano seemed endless, as if it wanted to completely drain the underground magma.
But what moved Naamah was not the overwhelming scale of the magma, nor was it Sakazuki's improved control over these magma, but the invisible fluctuations emanating from these magma.
That was the fluctuation of rules, something Naamah was incredibly familiar with!
"How could you also..."
But just as Naamah shrieked in astonishment, the overwhelming magma that erupted had already collided with the 'Black Sun' above its head amidst the thunderous explosion.
Light! Endless light!
Heat! Endless heat!
A blinding light far more dazzling than the scorching sun in the sky bloomed on the westernmost side of the Ninja World Continent!
The black sea of fire and the crimson magma colored the entire sky.
Even looking down from space, one could clearly see the color change in this area across the entire Ninja World.
At this moment, heaven and earth lost their color. The terrifying heat that spread out created a huge mushroom cloud in the air, forming the most violent hurricane that swept across the entire peninsula area, even affecting the surrounding sea area, causing the waves to surge.
Such momentum, such scale, directly impacted the combat between Lilith and Kuzan in the distance.
The surging air current that struck them even swept away the blizzard around them.
However, such a terrifying scene caused Lilith to reveal a look of pleasant surprise.
Ignoring its blood-soaked body and the throbbing pain from its wounds, it immediately flew towards Naamah's position at full speed.
The pressure brought by Kuzan was actually not as great as Sakazuki's, but the suffering brought by his relentless blade strikes hidden within the wind and snow made Lilith experience an unprecedented sense of torment.
Therefore, it had to team up with Naamah again.
Lilith knew that in a two-on-two combat, Sakazuki and Kuzan were no match for their side.
Their strength clearly had not reached the level of 'Highest-Grade Demon', nor did they possess the ability to combine their strength like the 'Twin Devils'.
"Faster! Faster! Faster!"
Lilith flew while anxiously shouting in its heart, appearing very disheveled.
But it didn't care. What did being disheveled matter now?
As long as they achieved final victory, they would have the last laugh.
At that time, they would definitely completely destroy everything in this world!
However, how could Kuzan watch Lilith leave so easily?
He and Sakazuki had come after reading the intelligence given by Im.
So, as soon as he saw Lilith's movement, he guessed its purpose.
The intelligence clearly stated that once Lilith and Naamah combined, they must flee back to Rōran without hesitation, even abandoning everyone in the First Main Combat Legion and the Ninja Alliance Army!
Kuzan had no doubt about this.
"Ara la, you should stay here. Otherwise, Sakazuki will say I wasn't serious again..."
Lilith only felt Kuzan's calm voice suddenly coming from behind it.
"Maha Padoma!"
Instantly, a pale blue halo swept across, and Lilith immediately noticed the change in the surrounding environment.
"Hmph, this technique again. I didn't expect even he knows it. What a pity, it's useless against me!"
Lilith snorted coldly. It had seen Hong Lian use 'Maha Padoma' before, so it knew that this technique, which seemed to freeze everything, was completely ineffective against its Demonic Ice.
Because its Demonic Ice could freeze rules and concepts!
In an instant, a large amount of pitch-black ultra-low temperature cold air surged from Lilith's body. They were like wisps of evil demonic serpents, baring their fangs and claws in the domain where everything was frozen.
Logically, the moment these cold air appeared, the void around Lilith should have produced cracking sounds, and everything should have restored to normal dynamics.
But this time, it only caused the air within a few meters around it to appear distorted and blurred.
Even the speed at which the cold air spread became extremely slow, which simultaneously caused Lilith's flight speed to be severely affected.
"How is this possible!!!"
Lilith let out a shriek filled with shock: "Why can't I break this ability?"
In front of Demonic Ice that could even freeze rules and concepts, any special ability should logically be instantly broken.
Unless the opponent's strength was far stronger than its own, or... the opponent also had a similar ability that could counteract the strength of its Demonic Ice.
"This! This! This!"
Lilith turned around in disbelief to look at Kuzan, who was standing on the back of an ice bird and gazing at it.
"Thank you, but you still have to die," Kuzan said indifferently.
As soon as his voice fell, in the domain where even light was frozen, sharp ice spears condensed one after another, becoming dense in the blink of an eye.
And the fluctuations emanating from these ice spears caused a deep sense of fear to appear in Lilith's eyes.
"You learned my strength! The strength of my Demonic Ice!!"
"Yes, this is the strength of the Devil Fruit. Goodbye."
Kuzan gently waved his right hand forward.
The next second, ice spears filled the sky, shooting out from all directions.
The rapid swishing sounds were continuous...
"No!!!"
Lilith's eyes were about to split, and even dark red blood and tears flowed from its eyes.
Because it was unwilling, truly unwilling. If only it had combined with Naamah, it could have possessed the true strength of a 'Highest-Grade Demon' and easily crushed these ant-like humans...
In the end, Lilith cursed in its heart.
"Naamah, you damned bastard! It's all your fault! It's all your fault! If I had swallowed you earlier, where would this result be now!"
On the other side, as the light dissipated and the qi energy subsided.
The earth, which had originally turned into a vast magma pool, now abruptly formed a vast circular dent.
The surface of the pit was completely crystallized, emitting wisps of high temperature heat.
Sakazuki, bare-chested with torn pants and burn injuries all over his body, stood in front of the fallen Naamah, staring directly into its demonic eyes, which were filled with extreme fear and shock, with his utterly cold gaze.
"The power to burn rules and concepts, you actually learned it!"
Naamah gritted its teeth and questioned.
"Ah, it really made me endure a lot of hardship. I could have blown up your chest and burned your heart yesterday..."
Sakazuki said expressionlessly, "Your martial arts are too poor, and your reliance on your ability is too severe. Borsalino is stronger than you in this aspect."
Naamah's expression turned ashen. It didn't care who Borsalino was, but it feared the deathly aura it smelled.
Naamah was very familiar with this aura, but it was the first time it belonged to itself...
"Human, before you act, I need to warn you. Once you kill me, this world will be completely linked with our Netherworld Government. Next, you will face the descent of the second layer, the third layer, and even the highest level 'Demon King' Lucifero!!!"
Naamah was making its final struggle for its life.
"Then let them come. The World Government's Justice fears nothing!"
After speaking, Sakazuki's magma right arm, which had long undergone elemental transformation, fiercely struck towards Naamah, whose expression was filled with despair.
"It's time to go, demon."
"Great Eruption!!!"
