One Piece: I am Imu-Chapter 317: Enma’s Authority
Chapter 317 - 317: Enma’s Authority
"Enma, what do you think of the King of Death's invitation?"
Imu was ready to listen to what his 'little daughter' had to say.
After all, the other party was also a professional in matters concerning the underworld and the Lord of the Underworld.
Little Enma sat on the sofa with her head tilted and thought for a while.
"Father, do you want to ask if we will continue to cooperate with the King of Death and if this conversation will be dangerous?"
"Yes."
Imu didn't hide his thoughts.
He trusted Enma more than the Five Elders and even Esdeath and Historia.
Because the other party was created by himself and also merged with a drop of his own blood.
Although the connection between the bloodlines was not very obvious, it could indeed be felt.
"Father, I think you should maintain a good relationship with the King of Death for now."
Little Enma's attitude became serious.
"Although I have now become the Lord of the Underworld of this 'Titan World', it is precisely because of this that I can more clearly feel the gap that separates me from the King of Death."
"But I don't need him now."
Imu's tone was light, his eyes were calm.
Before, he wanted to improve his soul strength and break through his own strength limit.
So he had to use the soul coordinates of other worlds in exchange for the qualification to practice in the Underworld ruled by the King of Death.
But now he no longer lacks ways to improve his strength.
"But the King of Death's strength should still be of use to you, and who knows if the Lord of the Underworld at his level has other means?" Enma said.
Imu naturally understood what the other party meant—she wanted him to find a way to make use the King of Death.
Otherwise, it would be a waste to leave him there and ignore him.
The main reason is that the Death King's strength is obviously much greater than his now.
But the other party has something to ask of him, while he doesn't need anything from him.
In this case, if both parties want to cooperate, the key lies in the other party's attitude.
If he relies on his own strength to show off to me, then I can only let him go and do what I should do, waiting until I finish training Little Enma!
"As for the risk, if Father agrees, Enma can speak to the King of Death and let him directly possess the person with the Yomi-Yomi no Mi ability and then speak to you in this world through him."
"This is a good suggestion."
Anyway, he didn't want to go to the underworld of the Starfish World to meet the King of Death again.
Before, he had no choice but to gamble, but now the situation is different, so there is naturally no need to continue taking risks.
"Okay, then let him come and see what he has to say."
Imu agreed with Enma's idea and then turned the topic to the other party, asking with a smile: "What about you? What are you going to do next, continue to control the second underworld?"
"Well, no~"
Enma shook her head.
"Father, I am now recognized only by the will of the underworld of this world. But I still need to establish order."
"At the same time, I have to understand the rules of the underworld, cultivate more divine power, develop my own divine arts, etc. I am very busy!"
After hearing this, Imu asked: "So, you are a god now? How strong are you?"
"Hehehe, I have indeed entered the path of the gods, but now I can only hold off a few ghosts and monsters at most. But when I fully merge with the will of the underworld of this world, I should be very powerful."
Enma raised her chin proudly.
Imu nodded and had a general understanding of these underworld masters in his mind.
"Do you need my help with anything?"
"Yes!"
Enma quickly stood up and looking at his father.
"My underworld needs more souls. The more determined the souls are in life, the better, and..."
Speaking of this, she hesitated for a moment but still said it softly.
"Father, and that Ymir... Can Enma deal with her? Her coordinate space has been intercepting the souls of the Eldians, which is already considered stealing from Enma."
"Oh?"
"You can enter and exit the coordinate space at will now?"
Imu looked at her with some surprise but saw Enma nod.
"I am already the master of the underworld, and I can enter her space through the gaps whenever I want."
"Okay, let's go now!"
Imu immediately stood up. He had wanted to talk to Ymir for a long time.
"Okay, Father, we need to enter the underworld first and then access Ymir's space from there."
Enma was very happy and quickly released a purple-black flame from the tip of her right index finger.
Then she lightly tapped the void in front of her, and the flame spread rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, a rectangular door with purple-black flames burning along the edges formed in the air.
"Father, this is the 'Gate of Hades' that I came up with~"
Enma walked over to Imu and smiled at her masterpiece.
"It is much more convenient than before."
Imu agreed.
Next, Little Enma took Imu's hand and helped him detach his soul from his body.
Then, she led Imu's soul through the 'Gate of Hades' to the underworld of the 'Titan World'.
The environment here was still so desolate.
It was originally a white sea of sand, but now it had turned into dark scorched earth.
"Did you do this?"
"Yes, Father, because I need to earn the approval of the underworld's will, I must let my presence fill every corner here, so setting fire was the fastest way."
Little Enma answered while closing her eyes to sense the presence of the coordinate space.
"But this also caused most of the previous souls to be buried in my sea of fire. The souls here now are all newly arrived, but their number is still too small."
After saying that, she suddenly opened her eyes and then swung her palm toward the void in a specific direction.
[Swoosh!]
A long cut began to slowly open in front of the two.
"Why not use the 'Gate of Hades' like before?"
Imu looked down at Little Enma in confusion, only to see her body growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, she transformed into a woman in front of him.
"Because we are going to fight, Father!"
Enma raised her chest and declared loudly.
Imu pondered.
"Well, not necessarily... Let's see Ymir's attitude first."
...
Coordinate space.
A little girl wearing dirty white clothes, a white headscarf, and short yellow hair is squatting on the ground, kneading something with the gravel.
Looking around her, there are already a lot of puppets of various shapes.
This is Ymir.
Her life seems to have not changed at all, and she is still making these things all the time.
"Huh?"
But at this moment, Ymir suddenly raised her head and saw a long purple-black cut in the starry sky above her.
And when she saw Imu and Enma slowly descending, she suddenly realized. "I see, no wonder."
Her ability is to see the past and future from the perspective of the hosts of the Founding Titans, and the results are bound to happen. But those things that the hosts of the Founding Titans did not see cannot be seen directly.
But she can speculate what happened through various situations and changes in the future.
Now the doubts are solved.
"Are you here to kill me?"
Although she already knew the future, Ymir still looked at Imu with expectation, which was a kind of self-consolation through self-deception.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"
Imu waved his hand and asked coldly: "I remember we agreed before that you would serve me and the World Government for a hundred years. Do you really think I have no means to deal with you?"
Ymir asked curiously, "Oh, then what are you going to do?"
She is truly fearless, as she is determined to die. After all, in her opinion, the most extreme way is to destroy herself, but this is exactly what she wants.
"Enma."
"Yes, father!"
Enma took a step forward with a cold face, stared at Ymir, and sneered, "How dare you, a mere vengeful spirit, be so presumptuous."
As soon as the words fell, she burst out with a surging momentum and pressure, and white smoke surged like a tide, accompanied by a large number of hideous ghosts in the smoke.
"Conqueror's Haki?"
Imu, who was close at hand, felt as if a strong wind was blowing on his face and a heavy pressure was falling on his body and thought to himself: 'No, this is not the impact of spiritual power.'
"Ah!!"
On the other side, Ymir's expression changed drastically, she screamed in pain, and suddenly knelt down on the snow-white sand, trembling all over but unable to stand up.
It was as if an invisible but extremely heavy object was pressing on her.
"You, who are you?"
Ymir raised her head with difficulty and looked at Enma with a shocked face.
At the same time, the surrounding sand began to condense into strange titans, all of which were the images of the nine titans of past generations.
Obviously, she had no intention of surrendering without resistance.
"Hmph!"
Enma sneered disdainfully, "Go, pick up all those toys!"
With her command, the ghosts in the surrounding white mist flew out one after another, and at the same time, dark purple flames ignited on their bodies.
[Boom! Boom! Boom!]
When these ghosts, burning with hellfire, collided with the titans, a violent explosion occurred immediately.
The surging purple fire wave swept over.
All the titans that came into contact with them let out extremely tragic wails and turned into black ashes in the raging fire.
Not long after, the surrounding area was engulfed by these purple seas of fire.
Imu looked serious.
Because he felt a strong sense of crisis from these hellfires.
If his willpower were not strong enough, his soul would have begun to tremble.
"Haha, so powerful. Do you want to burn me to death with this fire?" Ymir's face was pale with fear, but she still lay there morbidly and laughed.
However, Enma did not respond but just flicked a wisp of purple flames onto the other's feet.
"Ahhhhhh!"
The next moment, the girl screamed.
Ymir only felt unimaginable pain, which hit her whole body like a torrent from her right foot.
Am I finally going to die?
The severe pain made her unable to suppress her screams. But there was some joy in her heart, thinking that if she endured for a few more seconds, she would turn into ashes.
But what made Ymir despair was that it seemed a long time had passed.
Yet her consciousness was still clear, and the severe pain was tormenting her.
"Hehe, if you want to die, then you're thinking too much~" Enma walked in front of Ymir.
She looked down coldly at Ymir, who was rolling on the ground and wailing because of the severe pain.
"The fire of hell is my innate ability. It can burn as I let it burn, and I am still the lord of the underworld here. If I don't want you to die, you can't die!"
Ymir was completely dumbfounded when she heard this.
Can't die, so I have to be burned by this flame all the time?
At this time, Imu came over and looked at Ymir calmly on the ground.
"Ymir, you seem to think that death and destruction are the most terrible, so as long as I don't want to kill you, I can't do anything to you."
"But today, I want to let you know that long-term pain and torture are sometimes more terrifying than death."
Imu's eyes were calm and cold.
A few seconds later, Enma dispersed the hellfire on Ymir's legs.
Because of the extreme pain, Ymir couldn't respond to anything Imu said.
But her petite body was still trembling, and her eyes were full of fear.
Imu asked softly, "Are you willing to listen now?"
"Listen!"
Ymir lay on the ground, trembling with fear.
She was afraid that Enma would set fire to her again.
"I, Lord Imu, I was wrong, yes, I'm sorry, I will do whatever you ask me to do in the future!"
Imu's mouth curled up, feeling happy.
"Well, I ask you to let all adult Eldians have the ability to transform into pure titans at any time, maintain self-awareness, and freely transform back to human form. Can you do it?"
Ymir was stunned and said anxiously: "It is not difficult to transform into a giant and transform back to human form at any time, but it is impossible to let the pure titan maintain consciousness, because this is a privilege only for the nine intelligent titans."
"Okay."
Imu did not make it too difficult for the other party and then asked: "Then tell me the information of all the worlds encountered by the World Government in the future!"
"That. The future I see is the future that is bound to happen, so even if you know it, it is useless. Instead, you will feel pain because you know everything."
Ymir whispered: "Because no matter good or bad, it cannot be changed, just like Eren before, no matter how you want to change it, you will find that the result is still the same result"
Imu was silent for a long time.
Ymir's predictive ability is indeed very strong.
But it's useless to think about it now. What's the use of knowing what is bound to happen?
"Then tell me what's in the next world, just satisfy my curiosity in advance."
"Five great nations, shinobi villages, shinobi, and ninjutsu."
As soon as Ymir finished speaking, Imu's face suddenly changed.
