Chapter 54 : Demonic Dragon Heart

In the live streaming room, a red lotus floated there.

[Indomitable Scarlet Blossom: Contains the potent red lotus fire. Upon consumption, it bestows mastery over formidable flame abilities and an endless source of energy.]

[Nine Tails: This thing looks amazing!]

[One Tail: It's more than just amazing; with the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, Red Lotus Godzilla can breathe atomic breath, capable of obliterating entire nations in one strike. However, this attack consumes a massive amount of energy, limiting its sustainability. But with the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, it can unleash atomic breath continuously, maLord it a true harbinger of destruction, capable of laying waste to everything!]

[Nagato: A truly terrifying treasure. While its value might not be high for others, for Red Lotus Godzilla, it's an unparalleled gem that surpasses all others.]

[Third Hokage: With the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, Red Lotus Godzilla's threat level has multiplied. Though its strength won't increase significantly, its endurance is now formidable, which is deeply unsettling.]

[Terumi Mei: I hope none of you ever cross paths with this horrifying creature in your life; it's beyond terrifying! In terms of destructive power, the first two creatures probably pale in comparison!]

[Gaara: Yes, Red Lotus Godzilla's reaction time and speed are its weaknesses; otherwise, it'd be virtually invincible!]

"Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, this is fantastic!" Red Lotus Godzilla exclaimed with excitement.

This item is exceptionally beneficial to it, while not offering much help to others or his master,Yasao. Without hesitation, it extracted the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom.

As the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom materialized, its scorching aura caused the surrounding seawater to boil. Red Lotus Godzilla wasted no time and devoured the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom in one gulp.

Boom!

The energy within its body surged continuously, and the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom kept supplying energy, ensuring its atomic furnace would never run out of power.

"It's incredible!" Red Lotus Godzilla exclaimed in joy.

From Yasao, it had learned that the real Godzilla primarily consumed nuclear fuel and waste. However, nuclear fuel in the ninja world was scarce, forcing it to rely on alternative sources as fuel, which limited its combat endurance.

Now, with the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, that concern was a thing of the past.

"That guy, Red Lotus got the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom; I bet he's over the moon!" Honghong commented.

Rong Rong smiled and replied, "With the Indomitable Scarlet Blossom, it doesn't need to search for fuel anymore, except for one specific expense."

"Rongrong, you care even about that small expense!" Yasao teased.

Rong Rong suddenly turned serious and said, "Master, you are not the head of our organization for a moment. In terms of expenses, you're a big spender, considering the vast resources we have under your command and our cultivation resources. All of it adds up to substantial expenses."

"That's true," Yasao acknowledged, aware of the resource consumption issue. Initially, he had been focused on accumulating resources, but now he could afford to be more relaxed.

Shortly afterward, the reward for the fourth-ranked pet on the list was unveiled.

This reward belonged to Rimuru, Rimuru.

*Dong dong dong!*

A beating heart appeared on the live broadcast screen. It was a black heart exuding a terrifying aura of coercion, evidently from the heart of a formidable creature.

[Orochimaru: A heart? I wonder what kind of creature's heart that is.]

[Kakuzu: I don't know what kind of heart it is, but I really want it! I'd trade my own heart for it!]

[Hidan: Kakuzu, who wants your lousy heart? This heart is undoubtedly a priceless treasure!]

[Terumi Mei: That heart looks really strange; I don't want it!]

[Tsunade: I don't dare to ask for it either!]

Then came the heart's description.

[Demonic Dragon Lord's Heart: The heart of a top-tier Demon Lord species. Consuming it enhances the power of the Demon Lord. The possessor gains a Demon Lord skill and can complete their own evolution. If consumed by a non-Demon Lord species, there's a high probability they will evolve into a Demon Lord!]

[Kakashi: Demon Lord? Rimuru is a Demon Lord, right? This heart should greatly benefit him!]

[Might Kai: We humans could also consume the heart of a demonic dragon, but we'd transform into Demon Lords, no longer human.]

[Orochimaru: If you give it to me, I'd gladly abandon my human form; the power of a Demon Lord transcends human abilities!]

[Kakuzu: With such a formidable heart, I desire it even more!]

Ryūchi Cave:

"The demonic dragon's heart is also a dragon clan's heart. While it belongs to the demon dragon clan, if it were given to me, even if I transformed into a Demon Lord species with altered attributes, I might still hope to become a true dragon. It's a shame I don't possess such a treasure," White Snake Sage lamented.

However, since she was also on the pet list, albeit with just a dozen or so competitors, she anticipated receiving excellent rewards herself.

Meanwhile, Yasao, Honghong, Rongrong, and Yaya focused their attention on the demonic dragon's heart. Kumoko was also eyeing it, believing that the heart could help her complete her evolution into a demon-type spider.

A look of yearning flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say a word since the reward was intended for Rimuru.

Yet, Yasao noticed her longing expression and conveyed a message to Rimuru.

Rimuru wasn't far away and had acquired teleportation abilities. It returned promptly.

"Master!" Rimuru greeted respectfully.

"Rimuru, the Dragon Heart can enhance your strength, but it won't aid in your next evolution. It would be more beneficial to Kumoko. If Kumoko consumes the Demonic Dragon Heart, she'll likely evolve into a Demon Lord, completing her transformation. I'm not sure about the rewards she'll get afterward, but they might not contribute to her evolution. Therefore, I need you to relinquish the Demonic Dragon Heart," Yasao instructed.

"Master, then I'll give the Demonic Dragon Heart to Kumoko," Rimuru, ever the epitome of adorableness, replied nonchalantly, showing no signs of discontent. After all, it was merely a treasure, and it didn't hold grudges.

"I won't let you go unrewarded," Yasao assured.

With that, he produced the Evil God's Blade and said, "This Evil God's Blade is for you. It was your contribution that led to the destruction of the Evil God's headquarters. This weapon will serve you well!"

"The Blade of the Evil God! I love it! Thank you, Master!" Rimuru exclaimed excitedly.

The Evil God's Blade was well-suited for a Demon Lord, capable of significantly boosting its strength. 

Furthermore, the Blade of the Evil God ranked seventh on the weapon list, ensuring Rimuru would continue receiving rewards from it in the future. 

Even if the future rewards became less impressive, the cumulative rewards would be

unimaginable.

"Master, we don't have weapons yet!" Hong Hong playfully protested.

Immediately, Yaya and the others gave Yasao hopeful looks.

"You guys are impatient; crafting weapons takes time. Once you've gathered the necessary materials, I'll create weapons for each of you," Yasao promised.

"Master, I'm also in need of a weapon!" Garaga whispered.

"Scram!" Yasao scolded, causing Garaga to cover his mouth and refrain from speaking.

The discrepancy in the pets' behaviors was astounding. Garaga, the only pet who had dared to attack Yasao and subsequently beg for mercy before joining, now dared not speak.

"Hey, I'd really like to say that the Demonic Dragon's Heart would also be suitable for me. Consuming it could offer me a chance to become a demonic dragon!" Garaga thought to himself. 

However, he didn't dare voice these thoughts or compete with Kumoko for the Dragon Heart, as Kumoko held a far more cherished position in the master's heart; she was his master's darling.

"Extract!" Rimuru retrieved the Demonic Dragon Heart.

*Hum!*

The tremendous aura of a Demon Lord washed over him. For Garaga, this aura, linked to the dragon clan of the demonic dragon, was overpowering and restrictive. As a Flood Dragon, he felt profoundly affected.

In contrast, the others were less perturbed by this aura.

"Kumoko, take the Demonic Dragon Heart and evolve!" Yasao commanded.

"Yes, my beloved master! Po…"

Kumoko received the Dragon Heart and retreated to an adjacent training room to refine it. Soon, she would evolve into a Demon Lord, completing her transformation.

"Hmph, after my transformation, I'll be able to give the master shoulder massages and such. That spot won't be reserved solely for Sister Honghong and the others; I'll have my share too!" Kumoko contemplated, gleeful at the prospect.
