It wasn't the deathly flame that was stronger than her own, but rather the fact that the vast majority of the king's aura was actually absorbed and blocked by this petite girl alone. Because of this pressure, she could only clench her teeth tightly and couldn't speak, while they were only pressed down by the aftershocks of the aura, making it hard for them to breathe.
Suddenly, Fabino felt as if he had been struck a heavy blow to the heart.
His student might indeed be qualified to become an excellent leader, while his teacher, the... true seventh leader, was being protected by him.
Tap tap.
Suddenly, Daniela heard heavy, firm footsteps beside her. She turned her head with difficulty and saw her teacher walking up to her. She felt worried and wanted to speak, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"That's enough, Daniela."
Fabino, whose forehead also flared with intense flames, reached out and pulled Daniela behind him, his voice indifferent yet firm: "The seventh Vongola is still 3."
"You haven't retired yet; protecting everyone isn't something a little kid like you can do."
"Exactly, being protected by Daniela-chan is even more humiliating than kneeling down."
"Our generation isn't all dead yet, so it's not up to a little girl to protect us."
"Take a good look at our splendor! The next generation of guardians can't be inferior to us. Although, guardians as outstanding as us are extremely rare to find, hahaha!"
""
As words of varying tones rang out one after another, figures bursting with flames of different colors appeared one after another in front of the astonished Daniela.
Fabino spoke calmly without turning his head.
"Borodin's authority cannot be challenged, and the flames of the Vongola will never be extinguished. Watch closely, Eighth Boss!!!"
I accidentally missed updating for a few days. I updated another book the day before yesterday, and yesterday someone came over, so I didn't update either book.
Chapter 374 The Insidious Six Paths Madara? 2/3
Each of them used all their skills and unleashed their potential to resist the oppressive aura of this... legendary king.
That was their pride! "For dignity, no, for glory, for perseverance, and also for that pride."
He muttered to himself as he surveyed the group. Although he could tell that some of them had relied on the help of others, as a great and legendary king, he understood that the result was the most important thing. The reality was that his imposing presence had not been able to overwhelm anyone.
Rika Hanakain stared blankly at the skeletal figure that was shielding them from the onslaught.
"Xi, you've even mastered the Po Jun formation."
"Um."
"when"
Three years ago.
The highest-ranking shikigami in the Kagein family are the Big Dipper, Greedy Wolf, Giant Gate, Prosperity Star, Literary Star, Martial Star, Integrity Star, and Broken Army.
Among them, Po Jun is the strongest! Because Po Jun is based on the shikigami of the successive heads of the Kakaiin family. As the genius twins of this generation, she is not even qualified to sign a contract with any of the seven stars of the Big Dipper. However, Kakaiin Nozomi, who has only shown a slight advantage over her all along, has already mastered Po Jun, the strongest of the seven stars.
This made her realize that her pride from the beginning was a joke all along, which left her with very mixed feelings.
"You let me win on purpose."
""
"No need for 09 to say more, I understand."
Seeing Rika's mood turn somber, Hanakain Nozomi sighed and said nothing more. If it weren't necessary, he would have liked to keep it a secret forever, but his pride wouldn't allow him to back down in the face of the king's provocation.
To this king, Nozomi Hanakain was a genius worthy of his admiration, while Rika Hanakain had no other qualities besides her innate talent that caught his eye. And that insignificant talent was nothing to this king who was used to geniuses.
In contrast, that called "Vongola"
His awareness shone even brighter in his eyes.
The difference in strength between these cousins was evident from the very beginning when they faced "Uchiha Madara".
Some people noticed something was amiss, but it was their family matter and no one else could interfere.
Especially in Aizen's eyes, the difference between the siblings was negligible.
Is there a difference between strong and weak? Perhaps there is. In Naruto, the younger sister is at most on par with Kurenai Yuhi and Hiashi Hyuga, and her defeat rate is higher compared to ninjas who have experienced war. On the other hand, the older brother is clearly capable of fighting on par with the Third Raikage, the Second Mizukage, the Second Tsuchikage, and the legendary Sannin.
However, in Aizen's eyes, it was simply the difference between one strike and another.
No problem, it's all one cut.
As some people couldn't hold on any longer, that heavy momentum dissipated completely.
"Not bad, you've earned respect."
"Let me introduce myself. I am King Borodin, the ruler of the great kingdom!"
After a moment of silence, Thor's arrogant attitude didn't provoke too much dislike. The arrogance of the weak is clownish, while the arrogance of the strong is confidence.
Just as Borodin acknowledged everyone through his imposing presence, he also recognized this... Hammer King through that same imposing presence.
Finally relieved, Nura Rihan squinted and asked.
"Your Majesty, the mighty Borodin, what brings us here? Where is this place? How did we get here? How do we get back?" "You ask too many questions."
Borodin glanced at him indifferently, but still explained: "This is the capital of my kingdom, or rather, a projection from a thousand years ago. My kingdom faced collapse a thousand years ago. In order to make the great Borodin immortal, I had the great mages join forces to sink and bury the royal city and the most elite million-strong army together, in order to wait for the day when the kingdom is restored and sees the light of day again."
Therefore, this is why I am not in a hurry to let Gulad and the others be defeated by you, because their true forms are still sleeping with me, and they only have 20% of their peak power now.”
After speaking, Borodin's eyes, hidden beneath his helmet, involuntarily turned towards "Uchiha Madara".
This is the domineering man who successively defeated five of his capable henchmen.
These words were, in a way, an attempt to salvage some dignity for the five-man team after their defeat.
In fact, he did it; the strength of those five people was already admirable, making them formidable opponents.
It was initially thought that the captains of the Shinigami only possessed one-fifth of their strength due to spiritual pressure limitations, but now that we know these powerful enemies also only have one-fifth of their strength, they are indeed not to be underestimated.
At the same time, everyone was also shocked by Borodin's true strength.
Borodin said his true form was also asleep, so he must also be a projection. If a projection can overwhelm everyone with its aura, how strong must its true strength be? Or rather, does this projection also have a true form, and how much strength does it possess? Borodin's Strength: Talent: Abilities: Borodin's Destruction Hammer, Radiant Glory Set, King's Might, Top-tier Hammer Technique, Top-tier Fist Technique. In fact, this is comparable to the Captain-Commander's strength! Moreover, compared to his subordinates, Borodin's abilities are relatively simple; the top three—no, the first two—are all equipment.
One is a legendary weapon, the other is a legendary set of armor, and Aizen even collected the second set. The only difference is that the other's armor is plate armor, while his is leather armor.
At first glance, Aizen thought the third ability was still the legendary magic stone, but since that thing was legendary, and considering the opponent's special aura, it must be this ability.
This should be a skill similar to Conqueror's Haki, and its level is also very high. It seems to have additional effects besides the abilities it has already demonstrated.
Furthermore, Borodin's abilities consist of only two simple melee skills, one with a weapon and one unarmed, befitting a legendary king who ruled by force.
However, Aizen, who had temporarily merged into Madara's state, could not tolerate the other party's attempt to save face. Without saying a word, he used the system to upgrade Madara's appearance level 910 by one level. In the blink of an eye, a powerful and violent chakra filled the entire palace, and a strong wind suddenly rose.
Those who approach him must not retreat even for a moment.
"Um"
Borodin's voice sounded somewhat dissatisfied.
But the next second, everyone saw "Uchiha Madara".
His appearance began to change noticeably; his once wild black hair turned pale, and two sharp horns grew on his forehead.
His tattered and exposed body was covered by a white cloak, and eight mysterious black spheres floated in a circle behind him. His arms and legs had also turned black, and he held an extraordinary scepter in his left hand.
Cao Yanbing and Aizen Senzaemon's expressions changed slightly.
If they hadn't encountered the overwhelmingly powerful Borodin, perhaps none of them would have been able to remain calm at this moment.
Six Paths Madara! It's actually Six Paths Madara!!! I guessed wrong. This Uchiha Madara isn't the Madara after the Valley of the End, but the Madara from the Fourth Shinobi World War... who became the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki.
No wonder he dared to forcefully collect the spoils despite being alone and heavily injured; this freak wasn't really serious at all! Completely misunderstanding, Aizen Senzaemon cursed Madara for being so insidious, and felt a chill run down his spine.
He actually dared to steal a kill from Madara at his peak! Luckily, Madara wasn't really angry, otherwise, even if he used Six Paths Sage Mode, which was still somewhat inferior to Aizen's, Aizen probably wouldn't have had time to save him.
Feilu reminds you: Three things to do when reading
Chapter 375 What do you think now? 3/3
Before everyone's eyes, a completely different image replaced the arrogant and unruly man.
The injuries all over his body disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it were all an illusion.
In many people's eyes, "Uchiha Madara"
He was simply many times more powerful, but in the eyes of Borodin and Kuchiki Ginryu, it was his even more mysterious and unpredictable aura that was truly captivating.
No matter how powerful Madara Uchiha was, the techniques he used, while novel and unique, did not fundamentally make people like Gin Ichimaru and Rihan Nura too wary.
Just as Zhou Huan said, no matter how large or destructive a meteorite is, it's still just an ordinary meteorite. Anyone of equal strength can easily dodge it if they have a special skill, such as speed, or they can smash it with a single punch if they have a strong physique.
He has several natural advantages that allow him to easily defeat that Myra.
First, they are relatively restrained in terms of ability.
2. The intelligence disparity is significant.
Third, Myra never took it seriously as a battle; she merely passively endured the damage to test everyone.
But things are different now! "The power of the elements isn't right, and the power of light and darkness doesn't seem right either; it appears to be a product of fusion."
Borodin's tone was somewhat doubtful, and he repeatedly guessed uncertainly.
"It is the power of all things in the universe!"
Having briefly adjusted to Madara's Six Paths power, Aizen abruptly addressed the crowd watching him, speaking without any attempt to conceal his true intentions. Ignoring their attempts to press for more information, he arrogantly declared, "You said your subordinates weren't at their peak strength when they were defeated. So what do you think now?"
"Wardros and his men are no match for you."
After a moment of silence, Borodin readily admitted this.
Whether Estun and the others, in their prime, are stronger than their opponents is no longer important. If their opponents' energy was originally lower than magic power, it is now at least on par with magic power.
Unless they are grand mages proficient in all elements, or mages proficient in other spells, Estun and his group are destined to be easily annihilated by the black sphere behind them.
If a mage stronger than Borodin could also do this, then so-called restraint would be a joke when the difference in strength is too great. After all, being equal to someone doesn't mean being superior.
However, this is definitely not the case for Estun and his men. If his subordinates are all stronger than him, wouldn't Borodin have a lot of face to save?
"Let's continue answering your questions."
"Then you should also know that we don't exist in your world, right?"
"In my world, a woman accidentally discovered this world. In order to realize her plan, she thought of borrowing the power of powerful beings from another world. So she sent a bunch of people from my world to your world to test your potential."
The previous three steps were exploration, probing, and screening. The first was to understand if your world possessed special abilities; the second was to confirm the existence of powerful individuals in your world; and the third was to screen candidates to fulfill her ambitions.
"And I am the gatekeeper who will ultimately confirm your potential!"
"Knowing full well my strength, she used magic to summon our projections. Apart from my army, both Estun and the rest of us, as well as my own strength, are restricted. No matter how many of you sacrifice, as long as one of you manages to defeat me and survive, you will be qualified to become pawns."
Borodin's words were not at all serious; in fact, they were somewhat amusing at the end.
Just as he expected, upon hearing the word "chess piece"...
Even Nura Rihan, a yokai with a high tolerance level, couldn't help but frown and feel dissatisfied at the mention of the word "two".
"What a boastful tone, Chess Piece!"
Kuchiki Ginryu's expression was rather unpleasant.
"Oh, an old man like you shouldn't even be qualified to be a pawn. The reason we chose you is partly to protect the young people and pass on our experience, and partly to further confirm the abilities of the strong in your world."
If this batch fails, and it's confirmed that this world can still help her achieve her goal, she can easily train the next batch. If it doesn't work, she might give up or find other solutions.
Borodin spoke indifferently, seemingly dismissive, showing no concern for how cruel the truth behind it might be.
How dare you insult me!
"No need to be angry. I am indeed getting old. It won't be long before Byakuya is more mature enough to formally hand over the position of family head."
After restraining the displeased Byakuya Kuchiki, Ginryu Kuchiki calmed down and began to teach him.
Although the thousand-year-old Kuchiki Ginryu did not possess the power of Yamamoto Genryu Rongyu, he did not have a lifespan of tens of thousands of years. For him, he could only live for a few hundred more years before passing away.
Having lost both his children and his son-in-law, and with his son-in-law sealed away, he had long since become indifferent to everything. The only thing he couldn't let go of was the name "Rotten Wood."
Besides his own glory, all that's left is his outstanding grandson.
As the head of the four noble families, the Kuchiki clan is indeed full of talented members, but he has only ever met one person who truly has the talent to lead the clan to lasting prosperity.
Unfortunately, that person was sealed away by him and Yamamoto, and among his clansmen whose talent could rival that man's, he only saw hope in his grandson Byakuya.
The initial anger was simply due to dissatisfaction that "the king is not necessarily weaker than Yamamoto."
Regardless of whether his true form is as powerful as he claims, the fact that he can utilize this king's woman suggests that he is no match for her.
He didn't care about the glory of the rotten wood, nor did he care about his personal reputation.
