Dao Of Heaven

Chapter 343: Changing Allegiances

Stopping five steps away from Sakazuki, Leiva came to a halt.

Thud!

Behind Leiva, the formation of over a hundred Astartes warriors from the Third Legion's Black Templars Honor Guard stopped simultaneously, their synchronized footfalls echoing like thunder.

Among them, several warriors immediately raised the banner of the Astartes Third Legion, Black Templars. The golden double-headed eagle atop the flagpole clutched a wreath of olive leaves, encircling the bold, ho...

Chapter 274: Eriri, forever God!

The Bible Loli Goddess slowly opened her eyes, though they carried a trace of confusion, evidently unsure of her current situation.

However, she quickly became aware of something unusual happening to her chest. Lowering her gaze, she discovered two restless hands boldly making mischief.

"Ah! W-what are you doing?!" The Bible Loli Goddess panicked, her voice trembling as she encountered a situation she had never faced before. A unique sensation began coursing through her body—som...

Chapter 273: Loli Goddess

"I heard B-Class has a transfer student."

"Really? Another transfer student? Our school has had so many recently, but this time they're in a different class?"

"Is the transfer student male or female?"

"It's a girl. I heard from a friend in B-Class that this transfer student is super cute, and she looks like she's only about twelve or thirteen."

"No way, that's so young!"

"Well, lucky it's not in our class. Otherwise, it would probably be related to that guy, and ...

Chapter 539: Offering Myself as a Token

The young girl, her body covered in scars and malnourished from years of neglect, appeared extremely frail—so fragile it seemed she might be blown away by the mere wind.

At this moment, she bit her lip and curled into herself, her thin, swollen arms attempting to shield her body. Yet, her fragile frame stood no chance against the barrage of stones being hurled at her. Each time a stone struck her, a sharp, stabbing pain wracked her body, forcing soft cries of pain from her lips.

Chapter 40: A Person Filled with Love

On this day, Liyue Harbor was under strict lockdown.

The streets were lined with Millelith soldiers clad in armor, wielding long spears as they stood guard.

The reason for this heightened security was the divine decree issued by the Geo Archon the previous night, announcing that Fontaine's Hydro Archon would be arriving in Liyue for a state visit.

The Liyue Qixing, the seven individuals responsible for assisting the Geo Archon in governing Liyue, took this decree very seriou...

Chapter 255: The Little Glowing Balls

Akina quickly realized that Kotomi might genuinely be on the verge of overheating, given how silent she had become.

Immediately, she helped remove Kotomi's hat, gloves, and mask.

When Kotomi's face was revealed, the female doctor momentarily froze, completely captivated. How could someone be this beautiful?

Fortunately, her rationality prevailed, preventing her from outright staring in front of the girl's parents. If she did, it wouldn't be unreasonable for them to call the ...

Chapter 254: Am I Going to Antarctica to Find Penguins?

After going downstairs, Aimi informed her mother:
"Mom, you should call in for my sister and let them know she won't be at school today. She's caught a cold and has a fever—38.5°C."

Hearing this, Akina, who was sipping her coffee, was taken aback. After all, it was rare for Kotomi to catch a cold. She couldn't even recall the last time her daughter fell ill.

"She's actually sick? Well, I guess there's no way she'll be able to eat the pan-fried dumplings for breakfast today. ...

Chapter 342: A Historic Meeting

What do you do if your superior places their most cherished daughter under your command?

This is a loaded question—no matter what you do, there's bound to be something off about it.

Frankly, in Sanguinius's mind, he had no intention of bringing Alyssa along to eradicate the pirates in the New World.

Empress Selene's decision to have Lady Alyssa leave the Imperial Palace and lead her own forces had already been analyzed to death by all levels of Imperial society.

Spec...

Chapter 341: Leiva Wants to Negotiate a Surrender!

One Minute Ago – Pangaea Castle, Room of Flowers, the Heart of Mary Geoise.

"Lord Imu, we have failed. The rebels have defeated Admiral 'Green Bull,' who was stationed to protect Mary Geoise, and they have now breached the Red Line."

The Five Elders, the highest authorities of the World Government, bowed deeply. Their heads nearly touched the ground as they knelt before the supreme Empty Throne. Their postures were reverent, their tone humble.

Shrouded in shadow,...

Chapter 272: Hello? Are You There?

"Myu, let me introduce someone. This is your new big sister, Megumi Kato," Eriri said with a smile after finishing their greetings.

Myu looked curiously at the quiet girl standing nearby but showed no resistance. With a sweet voice, she greeted her warmly.

"Nice to meet you, Megumi-nee."

"Nice to meet you too, Myu. Just like Eriri and the others said, you're adorable," replied Megumi with a slight smile as she stepped forward and patted Myu's head.

It seemed head pats ...

Chapter 271: Meeting Myu

[Ding! Successfully reclaimed the God-Level Enhancement System, earning 100 billion points.]

As expected of a High-Level Intermediate System—its value was ten times that of the Villains Chat Group from before.

The barrier to advancing from the Sixth to the Seventh Level is steep, but the barrier from the Seventh to the Eighth Level is even more daunting.

To progress from an ordinary person to the peak of the Seventh Level requires just over 40 billion points. However, adva...

Chapter 538: A Strange Little Town

The night was deep, the sky dotted with stars and a full moon hanging high. Yet tonight's moon was different—it emitted a faint crimson glow, an ominous and eerie aura.

The sudden outbreak of the fire had taken everyone by surprise. Most people, still asleep, had no chance to react before they found themselves surrounded by roaring flames with no way to escape. The fire was not only abrupt but incredibly intense, exacerbated by the strong winds that fanned the flames. Compounded by th...

Chapter 39: Negotiation Reached

Zhongli fell silent after Felina finished speaking.

Children inevitably seek independence when they grow up. Zhongli had foreseen this long ago.

During last year's Rite of Descension, Keqing, one of the Qixing of Liyue, asked him a poignant question while presiding over the ceremony:

"You have safeguarded Liyue for millennia. Can you truly continue to protect Liyue for another thousand years?"

The question struck a deep chord in his heart, forcing him to confront wheth...

Chapter 253: Hugging All Around

After learning the reason for Megumi's absence, Kotomi returned to the classroom. For lunch, she only ate three yakisoba bread rolls.

She slumped lazily on her desk, looking listless.

"Kotomi has seemed out of it all day today."

Yui was both surprised and concerned by Kotomi's unusually light lunch and asked with genuine worry.

"Have I?" Kotomi mumbled, her head shifting left and right on the desk.

"Maybe it's because Megumi isn't here," Yukino Yukinoshita softly...

Chapter 252: Yukino: You Two Are Really Close

Looking left and right, there was still no sign of Megumi.

"Could it be that I came out too early today?"

Kotomi pulled out her phone, feeling puzzled. She had left the house at her usual time. Normally, as soon as she stepped out, she would see Megumi Kato waiting for her under the streetlight. But today, Megumi was nowhere to be seen.

Kotomi walked to the streetlight and looked up, just in case. No, Megumi wasn't sitting atop the streetlight with her arms crossed either. 2024-11-23 14:00:46 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 340: Did You Think I’d Duel You? Keep Dreaming!

As time passed, news of the World Government's headquarters, Mary Geoise, being besieged spread like a bomb exploding in a quiet pond, shaking the entire world.

The Marines and CP organizations had suffered such catastrophic defeats!

Not only had the weaker regions of the Four Seas fallen into turmoil, but even the world's central hub on the Red Line wasn't spared.

There was no need for spies from the major organizations of the New World to investigate the situation in detai...

Chapter 339: The "Absolutely Secure" Mary Geoise Falls Again

In the middle stretch of the Grand Line, on the summit of the Red Line, lies the Holy Land, Mary Geoise.

Generally speaking, there are only two ways to enter the New World from the first half of the Grand Line. The first is to scale the Red Line and pass through Mary Geoise, while the second is to dive 10,000 meters below the sea to traverse the undersea Fish-Man Island, which sits beneath the Red Line.

The first route requires applying to the World Government for passage through ...

Chapter 270: The Secrets of Level Nine

Although Eri Nakamura was now dead, the puppets she created using Soul Binding did not vanish. However, without their master's control, they all turned into lifeless husks.

The only difference between these puppets and ordinary corpses was that they wouldn't decay.

Eriri extended her energy across the entire royal capital. All the soldiers, knights, and court magicians who had been transformed into puppets reverted back to corpses. The souls trapped within their bodies were also l...

Chapter 269: Jibril’s Double Kill

With the enhanced defenses and regenerative abilities that Eriri had applied to the blond boy, Jibril no longer had to hold back her strength. Relentless, powerful attacks rained down upon the boy, one after another.

Under the aftermath of Jibril's strikes, the earth crumbled as if made of tofu, collapsing continuously into an ever-deepening pit.

Jibril gave the blond boy no respite. His body was destroyed repeatedly, only to be restored instantly. The enhancement of his pain sens...

Chapter 537: Ten Years Ago

As Kurumi Tokisaki pulled the trigger, a crisp gunshot rang out, and the clock hands on Zafkiel began spinning rapidly counterclockwise. The scenery around them transformed at an astonishing speed: snow-covered winter melted into autumn leaves, which then gave way to the scorching heat of summer, and finally, the blooming vibrancy of spring. This cycle repeated again and again.

Time passed swiftly, and amidst the whirlwind of changing seasons, the group eventually found themselves in th...

Chapter 38: Meeting of the Two Archons

In Neuvillette's amazement at Furina's plan and his heartfelt wish for its success, he was unaware that, knowing the situation in Sumeru would not resolve quickly, Felina had already set her sights on another neighboring nation: Liyue.

At this moment, Felina was in her office, deep in thought.

Her objective was to intensify the rift between the Rainforest and the Desert without sparking a civil war in Sumeru. By fostering mutual resentment between the two regions, she aimed to pea...

Chapter 251: Thinking About Solo Travel After Graduation?

After putting on her shoes at the entrance, Kotomi stood up, ready to leave.

"Wait a moment, Kotomi. You forgot the cake. Take it back for Aimi," Megumi called out.

Earlier, Megumi had returned to her room and repackaged the remaining half of the birthday cake into its box before bringing it downstairs for Kotomi.

"Alright, then I'll thank you on Aimi's behalf," Kotomi said as she accepted the box from Megumi's hands. The cake was clearly bigger than needed; even with half a...

Chapter 250: The Interlocking Stars

The candles were lit, their small flames dancing gently in the dim room. Kotomi drew the curtains and turned off the lights, plunging the bedroom into a cozy glow illuminated only by the soft light of the birthday candles.

"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

Sitting across from Megumi, Kotomi clapped her hands softly as she sang the birthday song, her voice warm and cheerful. As she sang, a flicker of bittersweet nostalgia crossed her face. How many years had it been...

Chapter 338: Navy, Five Elders—Your Time Has Come?!

"...The Holy Land Mary Geoise is under threat, and the Five Elders are urging us to recall the Navy's main forces from the New World."

"The great pirates of the New World are stirring, particularly Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach and Kaido of the Beasts. Their crews are causing the biggest waves—it seems they want to exploit this chaos for their own gains."

Seated at the head of the meeting room table, puffing on a cigar, Admiral Akainu (Sakazuki) spoke in a deep, measured tone. Hi...

Chapter 337: The Pirate World War

"...Monkey D. Luffy."

Staring at the projection screen, Selene's gaze was drawn to the straw-hatted youth amidst the real-time combat data uploaded by the Blood Angels of the Ninth Legion.

The iconic straw hat, the red vest, blue knee-length denim shorts, and thong sandals—it all felt so familiar. "Memories long buried."

Lying reclined, Selene's golden-patterned blanket draped lazily over her, while the glass teacup on a nearby side table let tendrils of steam silently ris...

Chapter 268: System: Wait For Death

As soon as Eriri and the others appeared, the golden-haired boy's system began blaring warnings.

"Warning! Warning! Warning! An entity beyond the host's ability to resist has appeared. Immediate retreat is advised."

The stern female voice echoed in the boy's mind, snapping him out of his daze.

Despite the urgent warnings, the God-Level Enhancement System had only detected the power levels of Arifureta and the others. It remained unable to analyze Eriri's full capabilities an...

Chapter 267: A Dazzling Entrance

"That won't do. Absolutely not," Eri Nakamura declared, her voice syrupy but carrying a disturbing edge. "Confessing is meaningless because Kouki-kun is too kind. He won't ignore others, even if they're worthless trash. That's why I decided to make him mine alone—a puppet who can only see me."

Her face twisted into a sickly, deranged grin, a stark contrast to the Eri they once knew.

"And as for you, Shizuku, Kaori, and even Miss Aiko—you'll all make such obedient puppets. I'll...

Chapter 536: Past

When Kaguya and her group arrived at the supposed location of their "villa," they were taken aback by the majestic sight before them. Calling this a villa felt absurd—it was practically a palace.

Stretching out before them was a vast architectural complex, grand and imposing. Exquisitely crafted pavilions and towers stood alongside serene waterside corridors and elegant gardens. The buildings, with their red brick walls, green-tiled roofs, and intricate carvings of dragons and phoenix...

Chapter 37: Jeering and Conflict

Thus, Vigneire, Aishi, and the other emissaries of Oceanid remained in Aaru Village. However, to maintain appearances, they began to operate covertly from that point forward.

During the day, they stayed hidden, emerging only after sunset.

Daytime classes were rescheduled to begin after dusk, ending at 10 PM. Once the lessons concluded, they would venture out under the cover of night to irrigate the fields.

The days passed like this, one after another, until a week had gone b...

Chapter 249: Megumi, You’re Too Rough!

Chihiro Sengoku sighed deeply once again, helplessly emphasizing that she was not a "ghostly advisor" as she grabbed a can of beer from the fridge.

"Chihiro-sensei, it's still work hours. You shouldn't be drinking beer," Hibiki Naegi reminded her.

"I know, I know. It's just that the weather is so hot, and I'm so thirsty. I suddenly really feel like having a cold beer," Chihiro responded.

"Are you sure drinking beer during work hours is fine?" Kotomi asked, tilting her head.<...
