Chapter 566 : World Time

At the same time, Lindow inhaled a puff of smoke. His body was battered, but beside him stood Anubis...

He looked up as Yuki shot upwards...

"Safe travels..."

With these words, his hand, which held his cigarette, lost its strength, and his eyelids drooped.

*Bam

Yuki quickly broke the sound barrier, his speed increasing even more. He left the clouds behind and pierced through the stratosphere. From this distance, Yuki could already see his translucent crown rotating in the world, but he didn't stop. His speed increased continually, and soon, the blue sky turned dark...

He had reached outer space...

But he didn't stop; he kept going, passed through his crown, and continued...

*Creaakk

The stake's seal was being broken by the Overlord. Even so, Yuki didn't care; on the contrary, his body began to glow, burning with white flames, and the sound of an ancient clock was heard…

[TIME EMPEROR... TIME EMPEROR!! DAMN IT!!]

The fragment roared, and tentacles pierced the stake, gripping Yuki tightly in an attempt to stop him. But he smiled and laughed heartily.

(Do your part, Demon King!)

At that moment, the Demon King in the Sky Castle shuddered and softly murmured a spell etched deep in his soul.

[I offer my past to the glory of the world]

"Hahaha... Let the damn Light explode!"

Then it happened. The sound of the clock stopped...

[Human Bomb...]

*KBOOOMMM

The enormous explosion lit up the world. All the world's inhabitants, Aragamis, and of course, the girls looked up at the sky.

The incandescent light was so dazzling that it even outshone the sun. But this was to be expected. Yuki (clone) had exploded his body, gathering all the Order energy he could over these 200 days. His explosion was so immense it could destroy the moon.

Even so, because it was made by Order, all the leftover energy was absorbed by the world and the Crown...

"Yuki!"

The girls gasped in shock at this. They all recognized the light—Yuno, Est, Eggy, Inori, and Kurumi in particular, each connected to Yuki on a different level.

They felt him in that explosion. Yuno immediately teleported to space, and all she could see was a radiant light.

"..."

For a moment, she was speechless. The aura of Yuki (clone) had vanished, as had that of the Overlord. He had been destroyed by the power of Order...

"..."

Inori stood atop the tower and watched the light, a tear streaming down her face. Yuki had lost his past in this battle...

* * *

Mou anata kara aisareru koto mo

Hitsuyou to sareru koto mo nai

Soshite watashi wa koushite hitoribocchi de

Anata wa itsumo so yatte watashi o

Ugorasete saigo ni nakasunda

Dakedo ato ni natte

Gomen netteiru sono ka o

Suki datta

* * *

Even so, it didn't stop the beautiful song. She slowly turned and began her dance. The Apocalypse Tower began to glow and resonate.

Inori's song echoed throughout the world, and the Apocalypse Towers began to light up one by one.

*Fummm

The translucent crown that protects the world lit up, and everyone in the world began to see its true form...

The Apocalypse virus began to spread worldwide, and the war against the Oracle cells resumed. The Aragamis roared in pain, and the weakest were crystallized...

*Bam*

At the same time, in the prison of chance, Yuki shuddered, feeling the call of his crown, which made his eyes gleam coldly...

"It's over. The time has come..."

Instantly, the cage of chance began to collapse, and Yuki used his own body to push the Overlord back to reality. He had lost his astral suit, and his body was in shambles, but that didn't stop him from continuing to fight...

*ROOOARRR

The world trembled with the arrival of these two beings. Even so, the Overlord roared in defiance. They had been fighting to the death for nearly three days, and the victor was still undecided. The moment of decision had arrived...

[TIME EMPEROR, I'M TIRED OF THIS FARCE, YOU WILL FALL, AND I WILL BE VICTORIOUS. NO MATTER IF YOU LOCK ME UP AGAIN, NOTHING WILL CHANGE. THE WORLD WILL BE DESTROYED BY ME, AND YOU WILL DIE...]

*Bam

The Overlord's body rapidly expanded until it was the size of a mountain. Yuki didn't lag behind either. Susanoo quickly formed around him, while in other parts of the world, Est transformed into a sword and flew at high speed, feeling the call of his master. Eggy, on the other hand, turned into black gas and flew as well.

*Bom

The clash of giants was inevitable. Both powerful strikes met once more, Chaos and Order exerting tremendous pressure on the world, which was being nullified by the crown...

The chaotic concepts and the dojutsu of the limits, the Apocalypse virus, and the Oracle cells.

Each power had the perfect opponent, yet Yuki grew stronger now that the tower was raised. Order is absolute, making a champion stronger than an Overlord of the same level, and now that Yuki no longer worried about the world's damage, he was at full power.

His Rinnegan spun, and his ocular power increased, dodging the Overlord's attacks and striking back.

[TIME EMPEROR!!]

Roaring the name of his worst enemy, the fragment gathered energy in his enormous mouth and fired. Yuki, on the other hand, raised his Susanoo shield and resisted. The damage to the world was incredible, but Yuki gritted his teeth and waited...

*Tick, tack*

Likewise, Zafkiel's needles turned in reverse behind him. It had finished charging its energy. The Apocalypse Towers had sent the necessary energy...

His needles pointed three times to the number XII, and the sound of the ancient clock echoed, the crown flashed, and the world trembled.

"Activate Incomplete Domain... World Time..."

[0.00000000000001]

*Tick, tack*

The world was suddenly enveloped in the domain, and everything stopped abruptly.

Time itself froze, even the oxygen stalling...

If the Demon King with Lucifugus is 'Space,' then Yuki with Zafkiel is 'Time,' both incomplete domains...

Yuki needed the domain to stop the Overlord, to cut off his connection to the limitless energy of chaos, and to kill him once and for all. He needed the domain for that, and with it, he would nullify all attacks on the world without suffering side effects.

With this incomplete domain, the world would be unable to be damaged. After all, attacks would be lost through time, and everything would freeze.

Nothing could move through the time activated by Order, making it the perfect shield.

*ROOOOAAARRR

Of course, not everyone was stopped in time. The Overlord continued his attacks, but they were halted by time. Likewise, Susanoo didn't stop either. The silver sword reached his hands and struck down. At the same time, dark claws formed on his back and clashed against the Overlord...

*BOMMM

However, something struck the Overlord. A katana lit up, and the space divided...

"Yuki!"

Yuno, being the Goddess of Space and Time, could resist the domain's effect, joining the battle. Yuki assisted.

He needed all the help he could get, and both attacked with all their might, bombarding the giant.

[TIME EMPEROR!]

The Overlord desperately tried to connect with the chaos, but due to the domain, it was cut off, and his energy greatly diminished. He also tried to bombard Yuno through fate, but Yuki and Yuno no longer fell for this trick. The crown lit up, blocking all attacks on fate and soul...

*BOOMMM

With a high Destroyer and a low Destroyer attacking, the Overlord quickly became passive. He tried to call his creations, but they were trapped in time, leaving him alone. He also tried to contact the other fragments, but...

[IMPOSSIBLE!! HOW....]

His soul trembled upon discovering that the other fragment had disappeared. Nothing could kill it except Order, so he was never worried about his other part. But now it had been killed by a clone of the Time Emperor. His trump card was lost; he had fallen into a trap, and his downfall was only a matter of time.

This drove him into extreme rage and madness, but unfortunately, Yuki and Yuno blocked his attacks and struck him.

*ROOOOAAARR

With one last roar, the giant fell from the sky, and Yuki pursued. Yuno brought him down, but being unable to kill him, Yuki had to deliver the final blow and purify him with Order...
