One Piece: I am Imu-Chapter 321: The Pope’s Secret and the Void’s Truth

[Buzz————]

When the long sword in the hand of Biba slashed at Bidashal with a sharp sound breaking through the air.

A layer of colorful ripple barrier suddenly appeared in the void two meters in front of the latter, making it difficult for the sharp and powerful blade to move forward an inch.

"It's useless, barbarian."

Bidashal looked at Biba, who was close at hand, expressionlessly.

"Although I heard that you somehow broke the rebound magic of the 'Jörmungandrs', it was just a magic circle fixed by a spell after all."

"So you mean to say that the magic you cast yourself is stronger~"

Biba retracted the longsword in his hand, smiled slightly without any annoyance, and then asked: "But why do you call me a barbarian? Do I look barbaric?"

"You humans are all barbaric." Bidashal replied coldly.

"Oh?" Biba understood that it was a conflict between the two races, not against himself, which also reminded him of the racial discrimination in Starfish World.

Although Starfish World has completely banned the existence of slaves.

But it has only been five years, and some people's thoughts have not completely changed.

In addition, there is the recent discrimination that has begun to occur towards the inhabitants of other worlds.

Even in Cipher Pol, Amatori Biba has encountered many contemptuous eyes, even though his strength has long surpassed them.

However, no one has noticed this problem now.

"In that case, I'll be a little more barbaric~"

As soon as the voice fell, Biba's face became solemn, and a venomous cold light flashed in her eyes, which made Bidashal feel a strong sense of uneasiness.

The next moment, Bidashal saw that the blade in Biba's hand was quickly stained with a dark black light.

"Serpent Breathing, Third Form: Coil Choke!"

Biba rushed forward to kill, and purple-white mist suddenly gushed out from the blade, forming a thick and long snake with a hint of light purple in white, which coiled around Bidashal.

"What is this..."

King Joseph and Sheffield, who were not far away, looked at this scene in shock, and the latter muttered to himself: "Is it the familiar he summoned?"

"No!"

As someone who faced the snake at close range, Bidashal could more clearly notice that the snake's body was a little weak and did not look like a physical entity.

And when he saw the rebound barrier around him begin to take effect, constantly generating colorful ripples to block the flashing knife light, he could no longer keep his face calm.

"This is not magic, nor is it a familiar, but swordsmanship, pure swordsmanship!" Bidashal shouted in astonishment.

"What?!"

King Joseph and Sheffield were also shocked.

Biba seeing that his attack was not working, increased his strength and speed to further enhance his attack.

This made the colorful ripples around Bidashal more and more.

However, Bidashal was used to the 'invincible' effect brought by rebound magic, so he stood still and acted very calmly throughout the whole process.

As Bidashal uttered words that were more like a prayer than a spell, his body suddenly burst into a bright green light.

At the same time, his green robe began to move without wind, swaying up and down.

Soon, changes occurred.

The stone slabs on the floor of the hall began to tremble violently and quickly decomposed into square bricks flying all over the sky and finally broke through the air like a swarm of bees towards Biba.

The next moment, the dense bricks and stones kept hitting the coiled white snake body like a torrent.

A large amount of stones and bricks splattered everywhere.

Then a magical scene occurred: the scattered debris gathered in the air and attacked the white snake again.

If this continues, unless Amatori Biba can completely annihilate these stones, he will face a continuous and endless siege of flying stones.

Faced with this situation.

Biba made a prompt decision and gave up resisting the flying stones, covering Bidashal with all the blades.

From the visual effect, it was like this thick white snake tightened its body and continued to strangle.

At the same time, it kept biting the invisible barrier with colorful ripples emerging with its bloody mouth with sharp fangs.

"Give up resistance?"

"Stupid barbarian"

Bidashal frowned. He never thought of killing people, nor did he like killing people. Then he immediately reduced the speed and force of the flying stones through consciousness control.

Biba's keen perception naturally noticed this change at the first time, and it also dissipated a lot of the coldness in his heart.

Originally, he wanted to teach the other party a lesson.

[Swish! Swish! Swish!]

While the two were thinking, countless flying stones had already swarmed in, but this time they were not blocked at all and passed through the white snake's body smoothly. frёewebnoѵēl.com

But this shocked Bidashal and others even more.

They couldn't understand.

Obviously, some of the flying stones touched Biba, who was still attacking around the rebound barrier, but nothing happened?

At this time, Sheffield keenly observed that some parts of Biba that were pierced by the flying stones seemed to have groups of purple mist.

Can his body turn into poisonous gas?!

But before she could tell the truth she had discovered, she suddenly heard a sound like glass shattering in her ears.

Looking closely again, he found that the barrier around Bidashal was broken into colorful fragments. Bidashal looked shocked as if he had seen a ghost.

Biba put the blade against the opponent's neck, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Any defense has its limits. Now it seems the rebound magic you cast isn't exempt from this."

...

Tristanian Academy of Magic.

"Mr. Tucker, the Kingdom of Gallia has been resolved, but I did not kill the king because he is also a void magician like Louise."

In the spacious school restaurant, a small Den-Den Mushi was sitting on a very long dining table, imitating the demeanor and tone of Biba.

Not long after, as Biba finished talking about the situation and hung up the call, the Den-Den Mushi lowered its eyes again and fell asleep under the surprised gazes of several people around.

"Well, you heard it too. You no longer have an employer, so naturally, you don't need to perform tasks anymore."

Tucke put away the Den-Den Mushi, turned around, looked at Damien across the long table, and smiled.

At this moment, not only were Damien, Jacques, Jeanette, and Bleu—the four siblings—present, but also Louise, Saito, Tabitha, Chelsea, and others.

"In that case, please give me more guidance, teacher."

Damien bowed 90 degrees to Tucker respectfully.

"Okay, get up!"

Tucker looked at this super genius, feeling both happy and somewhat conflicted.

Because although their previous fight had seemed like a draw, it was clear that if they had continued, he would not have won.

However, Damien was drawn to Tucker's knowledge of alchemy and was willing to become his student. Moreover, he always felt that Tucker and his group were full of mystery.

His curiosity, along with his strong ability to explore, made him eager to learn more.

"Um. Excuse me, Mr. Tucker."

At this moment, Louise suddenly asked with a determined expression: "Do you want to collect all the void?"

"Yes." Tucker nodded gently, looked at her calmly, and smiled. "We are indeed curious about what will happen if the legendary conditions of the 'Founder' Brimir are met."

"Miss Louise, don't you have expectations for this?"

"This..."

Louise subconsciously turned her head to look at Saito beside her.

The latter touched his chin and guessed somewhat uncertainty: "When the 'four' of the four are all gathered together, my void will awaken. According to this legendary prophecy, could it mean the resurrection or advent of the 'Founder' Brimir?"

Louise, Guiche, and even Principal Osmond and Teacher Colbert all changed expressions and shouted in shock.

But upon careful thought, it didn't seem impossible.

"Haha, that's what I was thinking." Tucker chuckled. "But regardless of the outcome, let's collect everything first. Judging from the current progress, it's almost complete."

"Indeed."

Damien was also eager to explore this mystery and murmured excitedly: "So far, we have collected two Void Messengers, two Void Familiars, three Void Rings, and three Void Secret Treasures."

"No, it should be three Void Messengers, three Void Familiars, four Void Rings, and four Void Secret Treasures!"

Just then, a young voice suddenly spoke, startling everyone. Louise and the others turned their heads toward the source of the voice.

They saw a blond knight wearing a blue cloak and white attire striding into the cafeteria.

"Who are you?" Tucker asked curiously.

Principal Osmond stroked his long white beard and smiled: "He is a priest from Romalia, Julio Chesaré. The day before yesterday, I received a personal letter from His Holiness the Pope, stating that he was sent here to temporarily serve as Louise's guard."

"Ah, another guard for me?!" Louise covered her mouth in surprise and turned to glance at Chelsea.

"Damn it, I'm supposed to be Louise's familiar."

Saito sighed helplessly. These guards kept appearing one after another, making him feel as if he wasn't trusted. But then he heard the sword Derfflinger comforting him from behind.

"Relax, partner, this is a good thing!"

"But..."

Saito looked at Chelsea with resentment. He used to share a bed with Louise.

But recently, this woman had taken his place. Every night, she would hug Louise and sleep soundly across from him, while he was forced to return to the corner and sleep on the straw.

Too much!

And Louise, though she initially refused, eventually yielded half-heartedly and let Chelsea embrace her with a blushing face.

Arghhh, so frustrating!

Why can't I join? I could sleep in the middle, and it wouldn't be crowded!

But no matter how vivid Saito's inner thoughts were, they couldn't affect reality.

"Yes, I am Julio Chesaré, but I need to add something."

Julio looked at Tucker and smiled. "I am also the Void Messenger of His Holiness Pope Vittorio. Please, allow me to introduce myself properly."

"Oh?" Tucker raised an eyebrow. "So His Holiness the Pope is also a Void Messenger? And you mentioned four Void Rings and four Void Secret Treasures earlier."

"Yes." Julio nodded and continued, "His Holiness the Pope also possesses the Fire Ruby and the 'Founder's Round Mirror' as part of the Void Secret Treasures."

"Then why reveal all this to us?" Tucker did not let joy cloud his judgment, as such things were usually kept secret.

"Because of His Holiness the Pope has always sought to collect all the void, not out of curiosity, but to save the world!"

Julio declared righteously, scanning everyone with an impassioned gaze.

'Save the world?' Tucker's heart tightened as he thought: 'Could it be that the Pope has foreseen something and intends to use the void to counter the world government?'
