090: Remnant Fire Taidao

In this scene, the bottomless thousand-meter abyss that appeared on the Red Line caused only one third of the world's H government to completely vanish. The entire world fell silent. The shaggy Five Elders could only gape, their jaws almost touching the ground, their throats quivering, struggling to make sounds. They saw clearly that only the front end of the scorched knife had touched the ground, creating such a terrifying scene.

"What exactly is that man?!" one of them exclaimed. "The entire Grand Line... is going to be destroyed!!!"

Countless people outside were horrified, feeling the temperature of the entire Grand Line rise continuously. Their hearts pounded with fear. At this moment, on Mariejois, which silenced the entire Grand Line and the world, Bai Ye was holding the 'Remnant Fire Taidao'.

"Remnant Fire Taidao · East-Rising Sun Blade," he said, looking at Im with indifference.

Shunpo! Bai Ye's figure suddenly disappeared from its place. In the next moment, Bai Ye appeared far away, coming face to face with Im. Holding the 'remnant fire sword', he swung it towards Im with indifference.

Im's red pupils showed a hint of surprise. He raised his right hand, and an invisible purple ripple emanated from him, trying to freeze all of Mariejois in time like before. But the next second, Im's pupils froze. The power of time touched the man in front of him. It should have completely stopped him, but this time, more than nine layers of its effect completely failed. When Im came to his senses, the Remnant Fire Taidao had already fallen in front of him.

In an instant, Im understood why the flames had vanished across Mariejois. All the temperature had gathered on that seemingly inconspicuous scorched knife. The temperature had reached unimaginable levels, and the power it held was far greater than before. The thought of getting hit by it made Im grit his teeth. He lifted his right foot and immediately displayed the second Devil Fruit ability while retreating quickly. The Remnant Fire Sword East-Rising Sun Blade fell.

...boom!!! 

Mariejois shuddered. Instantly, an abyss spreading thousands of meters emerged once more, nearly tearing open the entire sky. Countless clouds of dust rose but were immediately flattened by the terrifying wind pressure. Every visible building on Mariejois was smoothed by the wind pressure, demonstrating its terrifying power.

After all this, Bai Ye's eyes fell into the distance. He saw a ripple in the space where Im's figure emerged from the void. It was clear that Im had more than one extremely powerful Devil Fruit ability. The power displayed just now was related to spatial abilities. Without it, Bai Ye was convinced that the blow only needed to hit Im to end everything. 

But Im had many abilities, and Bai Ye was not surprised. There was another person in the One Piece world who possessed two Devil Fruit abilities at the same time. As the mastermind behind the Five Elders controlling the entire world, Bai Ye originally predicted that Im would possess even more powers than this.

No matter how many abilities Im has, in front of the 'Bankai' remnant sword, it's all doomed to fail.

At this moment, Im's red pupils looked at Bai Ye solemnly. "That destructive power... It's unbelievable that 'inferior creatures' can possess it, but!" Im's tone sank. "As long as you can't touch…!" Tear!

Im raised his right hand, ready to activate his ability. Before he could finish speaking, cracks appeared on Im's clothes. Immediately after, Im paused, covering his chest with his left hand. A pained look crossed his face as he spat out red blood.

"How is this possible?!" Im's red pupils revealed disbelief as he looked at the blood on his hands. He got hurt? But when? 

"It seems that even the blood of 'God' is no different from that of ordinary people," Bai Ye said disdainfully from a distance.

Im heard the words. His expression turned cloudy and uncertain as he felt the shock and pain from his internal organs. He gritted his teeth.

"I didn't even touch it. Could it be that the high temperature reached a level that even the space can't bear? What kind of joke is this!" Im tried to understand what was going on, anger on his face. His red eyes stared fixedly at the man in the distance who had forced the World Government to this extent.

Im gritted his teeth and raised his right hand. "In that case... I'll just kill you! As long as you die, all this will be over!" Im clenched his fingers. The power to pause time was unleashed again.

In an instant, the entire time of Mariejois separated from the Grand Line. Anger and coldness filled Im's eyes. "Although the effect of time is weakened for unknown reasons, the remaining time... is enough to kill you!"

Im raised his left hand and approached Bai Ye, ready to launch a destructive attack. However, boom! Im had not yet reached Bai Ye. Suddenly, indescribably hot orange-red flames burst out from Bai Ye's body.

As if wrapped in the scorching sun, the flames covered Bai Ye's strong body and scarred blade. In this moment, all of Mariejois seemed to fall into the core of the sun. Boom! The ultimate heat front turned almost all buildings in Mariejois into ash. The Celestial Dragons were reduced to ashes without a chance to scream. The Red Line melted in pieces!

Even Im, trying to get close to Bai Ye, was forced to retreat in the face of this sudden, far higher, terrifying heat. At this time, Bai Ye's indifferent voice sounded again.

He faced Im in the western position. "Remnant Fire Taidao Xi-Remnant Sun Prison Clothes. In this state, if you have the ability to get close, you might as well give it a try. But if not..."

Bai Ye stared at Im in the distance, stepping into the void. Clothed in flames, he released endless heat and rushed towards Im, like a walking sun appearing in the sky of Mariejois. "It's my turn!"

The voice fell. Bai Ye suddenly disappeared from his spot. In that moment, Im's face changed completely! He lost all previous confidence and no longer looked down on the inferior creatures in the entire Grand Line except himself.
