Annihilation.

The sky was cloudy this day as the temperature was slightly cold, but it didn't seem that it'll rain.

The Empire was having its usual day as the clouds in the sky were the best representation of the capital situation.

The capital never saw days like this before. The atmosphere is boiling as the preparations for war are ready.

The army is stationed around the capital as it was ready with all its soldiers while waiting for Esdeath in the north.

The Empire situation went worse with each day passing by, especially after the Empire's greatest treasure the Teigu were lost. All the Teigu has disappeared mysteriously.

This caused a huge loss in the Empire powers, which reflected in the army's uneasiness and the commanders. But this also confirmed that this is a threat need to be eliminated immediately than letting it grow.

Even if the Empire lost the Teigu, it still had a lot of other weapons like guns and its technologies that surpass the other parties. These facts gave confidence to the Empire forces in this war.

Meanwhile, inside the royal palace, there was a man sitting on the throne while clenching his fist.

"My body can't handle this power..." Liam was staring at his fist before some blue aura flashed. The throne he was sitting on cracked from the uncontrollable force.

"Dammit!!" Liam forced his body to stop releasing energy because this will only make his condition worse.

Liam got from the system an incomplete, mysterious formula that allows him to absorb souls and enchance his power. He used it at first and made his power skyrocket with no problem, but after absorbing a lot of souls, his body lost control. Even the energy has become chaotic and out of control.

After figuring the consequence and the reason the formula is incomplete, Liam wanted to stop, but the formula ignored his control and absorbed souls on its own. He tried a lot of ways to stop, but that was futile, which made him stay away from people.

Liam sighed as he had to use all the points he got from taking control of the Empire to strengthen his body and increase his control. The points he got from controlling the Emperor and Honest were huge, but it didn't help him that much.

The formula requires a lot of power from Liam, but he felt lucky that his other power solved this problem in the beginning. However, now it doesn't do much for him. This formula is very dangerous, which will cause his death if he didn't solve its problems.

Liam stood up from the throne and walked toward the entrance. He wanted to sell the Emperor Teigu to the system to get more points, but something he never expected happened at this moment.

A wave, a pink wave of energy appeared from above the capital and passed all the locations in the capital without an exception.

"What?!" Liam was surprised when he saw the wave of energy passing him. He didn't even feel where it came from or the reason behind it.

"Did they come?!" Liam thought of the only possibility that might cause this situation, and it's the hunters in his mission. He even felt a lot of his mind-controlled dolls are disappearing, so he released most of his energy in the form of a barrier, even if the energy is uncontrollable.

"I need to survive this then I'll strike..." Liam felt this attack was so sudden, but he didn't think that it'll break his barrier or his body at this moment.

However, 30 seconds passed after the wave happened, but nothing happened to Liam. He raised his head in confusion and looked around to see everything normal.

The palace still intact and the Empire outside still exists. Like nothing happened except some of his dolls disappeared.

"Nothing?" Liam frowned as he felt something isn't right. Maybe this is a strategy from his enemies to weaken him, but he didn't feel weak at all.

"Maybe there was nothing" Liam walked towards the balcony and stared at the normal Empire that seemed quiet than usual. However, Liam felt something above him as the colors changed slightly.

"Hm? WH-" Liam didn't even have the time to scream as a bright red-blue-pink beam with many glowing light spots and a giant shock wave hit him and the capital.

The silence filled the place for a moment before light swept everything.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

The Empire that stood on this land for millennia was erased from the map at this moment.

( 20 minutes before the annihilation)

In the sky, away from the capital, there was something flying there or rather say it was sailing because it was a ship.

A giant ship was sailing with the clouds as it was moving closer to the capital. The ship had a giant whale face at the front, and its colors were mainly blue and white. This wasn't a special ship, but if someone from One Piece world saw this ship, he'll change direction immediately because this ship belongs to one of the strongest pirates group in the world.

"GUHAHAHAHA!!!" Whitebeard was sitting on a giant chair as he was laughing while looking at the flying ship that resembles his own ship, Moby Dick.

"I didn't expect you to make this..." Whitebeard looked at Leo that was standing with the degenerate duo and Misaka before he said "... I'll take it after this"

"I don't care, but grab me a good devil fruit from your world and I'll make an entire fleet for you" Leo waved his hand as he didn't care about the ship that much.

The ship is a whole beast with the ability to fly, create a normal environment aboard, and it much more durable than normal ships. Fire or magma will not do a scratch on this beast.

Whitebeard nodded as he was thinking about the marines reaction when they see flying ships.

"Stretching your hands to another power system, huh" Kazuma stared at the shameless Leo that didn't change his face.

" If you count my beasts, then I'm very versatile in power systems" Leo didn't care about Kazuma's gaze as he was looking at the capital that appeared at a distance.

"So, what's the plan?" Misaka stared at the capital before she asked the group.

"What plan?" Kazuma tilted his head in confusion.

"We've a plan?!" Kaguya was surprised.

"Yeah, we've a plan and it's blowing up that capital" Leo replied calmly before he met the gaze of Misaka.

"Do you call that a plan?" Misaka always thought the plans supposed to be complicated, not just destroying everything.

"Well yes, but actually no" Leo put his hand on his chin as he felt that his plans need to be more simple. Like sending Saitama that was looking at the clouds under the ship. But that wouldn't be fun.

"Wow, that's very convenient for people who have mass destruction attacks" Kazuma looked at this group and he felt that only he doesn't have area attacks.

"Don't worry, Kazuma..." Leo put his hand on Kazuma shoulder before he said " You'll have your own tactical nuke in your world"

"What? Do you mean like a cheat? Or some secret power and plot hidden in my world?" Kazuma's eyes flashed as he was waiting for the answer.

"Yeah, it's the strongest magic in your world..." Leo didn't complete all his words before Kazuma celebrated.

"Yes! Yes!" Kazuma was clenching his fist while shouting to the sky.

Leo stared at this scene without an expression before he finished his words " In the form of an explosive loli" However, Kazuma didn't hear him.

"So, like I said. We'll attack at the same time with everything we got..." Leo put down the attack plan before Misaka raised her hand.

"Yes" Leo nodded at Misaka before she said " Is it necessary to attack him at the same time with everything we got?"

"Well, that's for insurance, I mean... We can just let him fight us one on one, then defeat us all, and grow stronger while remembering his past or something before he becomes the king of the universe..." Leo ignored the weird gaze of the group before he said " But we don't want that, right?"

"Yeah, I don't think this is bad... Destroy him before he reacts" Kazuma nodded at the plan before he saw Leo's eyes looking at him like he's waiting for something.

"Don't think about it..." Kazuma looked at Leo before he raised his hand and said " I, Kazuma, will never sell mysel-"

But before Kazuma finished his words, Leo put two gloves on his hands as Kazuma froze in his place.

{What's this?} Kazuma stared at the two gloves as he felt a connection from them and his fingers started moving smoothly.

Kazuma moved his fingers in very different forms, he even played a song by tapping on his hand. He never felt something like this, so he made his choice.

"As I expect from Leo-sama. Your wisdom always put me in awe" Kazuma sold himself to the devil without a single thought.

{He's sold!!} Misaka widened her eyes at this scene while Kaguya felt this is a plan she should learn.

"Hey, guys..." Suddenly, Saitama spoke which drew the attention to him before he said " Can we hurry up... I'm kinda late for a sale"

"Isn't the time stopped in your world?" Kazuma asked as he didn't think Saitama world will be different.

"Yes, but it more like I was already kinda late for the sale and now the time is stopped..." Saitama looked at the clouds before he said " I'm late and now the time is stopped. Should that make me late or not?"

The group looked at each other before they ignored this deep question that involves the philosophy of life.

"We've arrived..." Leo looked at the capital under the ship before he said " Let's finish this mission already"

*BOOSTED GEAR!! ANNIHILATION DRAGON!!*

*BOOST*

Leo raised his left hand as a giant dragon head appeared on it. This is the beast stored inside the Boosted Gear and used to amplify its powers.

"Palkia..." Leo called his beasts as Palkia appeared above the ship from space.

Activating his Ki scanning ability, Leo sent the instruction to Palkia.

Palkia understood Leo's thoughts immediately before he stared at the capital. Raising his hand, Palkia started to generate pink waves of energy that rushed to the capital with a quick speed.

The wave scanned all the capital and locked a lot of civilians and some soldiers before they disappeared from the capital.

"Hm?" Kaguya stared at the capital as she understood what Palkia is doing.

"You're teleporting them?" Kaguya was slightly surprised by this scene as it drew the attention of the group.

"Don't get me wrong, I just want you guys to go all out, and..." Leo started channeling the energy to the cannon before he said " I'm not a mass murderer who'll kill for no reason, so why are you guys looking at me like that?"

"Nothing... But it might not be bad to count you as a leader" Kazuma smiled as he felt that this guy is caring about people that don't like to kill everyone like Saitama, Misaka, and himself.

"Leader?" Leo raised his eyebrow as the cannon was flashing with red, blue, and pink energy. These colors represent Leo, Yamato, and Palkia as the strongest combination to destroy everything around.

*BOOST*

After creating Regulus, Leo was thinking about making a power link with his beasts to he can borrow some power without having them living inside his body.

"Yeah, kid..." Whitebeard stood from his chair as he walked towards the front to prepare his attack.

"A captain is someone his crew should look up to and he also should guide them when they need to" Whitebeard smiled before he said " For this time, you're the captain"

"We're counting on you, Leo" Misaka gave a genuine smile to Leo.

"You're the admin, after all" Kaguya also gave Leo a smile.

Saitama said nothing except giving Leo a thump up.

"..." Leo widened his eyes while looking at this scene. He didn't know how to describe his feelings, but he decided to let them go, anyway.

"You guys... Are really" Leo smile and surprise vanished as he said in an emotionless voice " Bastards!"

"Except Mikoto, you all want to throw work at me while you can just relax, don't you?" Leo's voice was getting colder with every word.

"Hahahaha..." Kazuma turned his head to look at the clouds while laughing slightly.

"GUAHAHAHA!!!" Whitebeard didn't care about Leo's gaze as he was preparing to attack.

"Really?" Misaka looked at these guys as she didn't know what she should feel about this.

"Yes" Kaguya admit it directly in Leo's face, which made Palkia stare at her.

Saitama shrugged his shoulders as he didn't care that much.

"*Sigh*..." Leo ignored these guys as his cannon was almost ready.

*BOOST*

Kaguya raised her hand as her five impossible requests appeared around her with a lot of light spots appeared above the ship and formed a barrage of colorful energy bullets.

A white quake bubble appeared on Whitebeard Naginata before he clenched his Naginata.

Kazuma watched the show, Misaka didn't feel like joining so she's just watching, and Saitama didn't know if he should join or not, but he was stopped by those three.

"Saitama, can you let us have the first wave? I mean, it'll be very boring if you join..." Leo was almost ready to shoot the nuke.

*BOOST*

"I have to agree on that..." Whitebeard felt this all journey will be wasted in a moment if Saitama punched.

"And very anticlimactic..." Kaguya felt this ending will be very boring if Saitama joined from the start.

Saitama stood in his place as his colors turned grey while Kazuma was patting his shoulder.

"Well, sorry..." Leo apologized to Saitama before he stared at the Capital.

*BOOST*

"...Vanish" Leo aimed at the capital before he pulled the trigger.

*LONGINUS SHOT!!*

A bright red beam shot from Leo's cannon as the effect was even stronger than the last time with the space literally shattering when the beam passed, but the ship was okay with Palkia protection.

"Divine Treasure...Jeweled Branch of Hourai -Dreamlike Paradise" Kaguya waved her hand as hundreds of thousands of energy bullets fall down like rain towards the capital.

Whitebeard increased the quake bubble power and size before he waved as a vast shock wave launched towards the capital.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

The world lost its colors down at the capital before a vast explosion swept everything even space wasn't spared by that destruction.

Palkia waved his arm as a pink barrier appeared around the ship and protected it from damage.

Kazuma and Misaka stared at the destruction happening down there as they were speechless and felt this is an overkill.

After a while, the explosion cooled down and the picture of a giant pothole filled with lava appeared in front of the group with a lot of space cracks that showed a dark void.

"Hm? He isn't dead?" Leo raised his eyebrow as he didn't get any notification that he killed the system user. He watched the place where the capital was erased from the map before he raised his cannon again.

"Apparently, not..." Kaguya put her sleeve in front of her mouth as her bullets appeared again.

"It seems that's the case..." Whitebeard raised his Naginata as another quack bubble appeared on it.

Palkia stared at his lord and his friends before the pearl on his shoulder glowed and a pink aura appeared on his arm.

"Again, huh..." Kazuma felt that this group is the evil guys here while Misaka joined Saitama that was looking at the clouds that turned orange-red from the explosion.

When the group was charging for the second round, Liam was lying on the ground with only his half body as he lost most of it in the explosion.

However, a red glow appeared on Liam's skin before his body recovered from all the damage. It was like the time was reversed on his body.

"SHIT!!!" A blue energy appeared on Liam's body before he stood up from the ground. He died 8 times in that explosion, 8 times!!.

If it wasn't for his body and second power which is the noble phantasm from Hercules in fate stay night, God Hand that allows him to revive 12 times, then he might die there. But that attack took more than half of his lives.

"What happened? How can this be possible?!" Liam was in a complete panic now. He didn't understand how can a nuke hurt him with god hand and his powerful body, but he didn't hear about space destroying nukes.

Raising his head, Liam spotted a ship in the sky with a pink barrier as he understood that those are his enemies. But Liam widened his eyes as he recognized two things from that ship.

{ What the hell is Whitebeard ship is doing here, and secondly, is that Palkia?} Liam sweat a bit even if he can't because of the heat around him, but he clenched his teeth as he was planning to escape.

Liam raised his hand as blue energy gathered before he shot a huge beam of 100 meters wide towards the ship. He doesn't believe this attack can do much, but at least it can stop them as he doesn't think a Pokemon can stop his attack even if he controls space.

Sadly for him, Palkia isn't in the kid's friendly show right now.

Palkia watched the blue beam before he raised his other hand as a portal appeared which sucked all the beams. Another portal appeared above Liam before the beam dropped on his head and took another life of his.

"What was that?" Misaka frowned as she saw the blue beam and the portal.

"Nothing important..." Leo answered before he aimed his cannon that included Regulus power with the other beasts this time.

"FIRE!!!" Leo pulled the trigger as an another beam shot towards Liam.

Kaguya launched another round of barrage and Whitebeard used the shockwave, but this time Palkia joined with his spacial rend, as all the space was distorting wherever the pink energy blade went.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Another explosion hit the poor Liam. This time it was even bigger, with a spacial rend that was erasing the matter by sending it to another dimension.

Liam wasn't even able to stand up and use his power because unlike the first time, the attacks never stopped.

Kaguya kept shotting energy bullets, Whitebeard waved his Naginata non-stop with quake bubbles, Leo was shooting his cannon even if it wasn't as strong as the nuke but the space damage was strong, and Palkia used his spacial rend and pink orbs as long as the target was clear.

"...." Kazuma saw all the colors flashing before his eyes as the world was getting destroyed in front of his eyes, but something he didn't expect happened.

*RUMMMMMBLE*

Lightning fell from the sky and joined the destruction, which made Kazuma look at Misaka that was flashing with electricity.

"What?" Misaka asked Kazuma that turned his way before he said " *Sigh* Nothing"

Kazuma felt he should join the gray Saitama to look at the non-existing clouds. The barrage continued for a while before a message appeared from the Chat Room.

[System user died... First objective complete]

Liam died with agony, hatred, and a lot of attacks that didn't leave him any chance to even stand up.

The group stopped his attacks as they stared at the completely annihilated ground where the system user turned into ashes.

"This is it?" Whitebeard frowned as he felt somehow empty from the inside. Like he was expecting something, but it didn't happen.

"I'm feeling empty..." Kaguya floated in the sky while feeling this accomplished nothing.

"This was disappointing... All those plans and tactics went to waste" Leo lowered his cannon down as he stared at the sky.

Kazuma didn't have a single word to describe what he's feeling now, except he wants to go back to his world. Misaka was feeling the same.

"Roooaarrwaaaao-o~~" Suddenly, Palkia felt something as he looked at Leo.

"Hm?" Leo understood Palkia's words before he raised his cannon again and said " Prepare for the second round"

*BOOOM*

A giant pillar of blue light rushed from the huge hole in the ground before a man appeared. The man felt like a machine more than a human as his empty white eyes didn't have any emotion.

Enormous energy was radiating from the man and it was in complete control in his hands as Leo felt his energy is increasing with the second. This is Liam, or rather say the system took control over Liam's body.

Liam(System) Open his mouth as blue ghosts appeared from the ground and rushed towards him before he absorbed them. He was absorbing souls to strengthen his powers. However, a pink barrier appeared around him and made him stop as it isolated him from the souls.

"Do you actually think I'll let you have a power-up?" Leo used Palkia to separate Liam(System) from this dimension, but to his surprise, Liam(System) destroyed the barrier with his bare hands.

"Affecting space now..." Leo frowned before he said " This might be tricky"

The group clenched his weapons and prepared their attacks to face this enemy now. This might be hard, but it's challenging for the group as they showed obvious excitement. Whitebeard was even grinning. However, a yellow flash passed in front of everyone's eyes and reached Liam( System)

"Serious series..." Saitama appeared in front of Liam(System) before he even reacts.

"...Serious punch!!" Saitama swung his fist with a speed that no one could see before a vast shock wave that pushed all the air and cleared the clouds as it hit Liam(System).

*CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSHHHHH* *BOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Liam(System) vanished into nothing with a giant shock wave that cleared all the clouds on this planet. Even the people on the other side of the planet felt the wind blowing.

The group was safe from the damage because Palkia separated them from this space, but their mind wasn't okay.

Leo and Kaguya widened their eyes, even if they saw this before, but looking at it with their eyes is far more shocking. Whitebeard almost dropped his Naginata, Kazuma was doubting life, and Misaka closed her eyes.

Saitama stood on the air before he looked at the shocked group behind him " What?"

"Didn't you say use all what you got?" Saitama scratched his head before he said " That wasn't all, but I guess it's enough..."

"..." All the team looked at Saitama without a word. They felt this is the most anticlimactic ending for this fight.

When Saitama was confused and the group was doubting life, a white orb appeared from the remains of Liam as it raised in the air.

The orb was almost broken as it was dropping shards, and it was glowing dimly.

"What a waste..." A deep, cold voice sounded from the orb before a face appeared from the orb. The face didn't have any facial features as it didn't exist at all and it was made from a black smoke.

"I guess this is what do you expect from a waste... But this is surprising" The face frosty voice had a tone of interest before it said " So, this is the alternative solution... I think I should congratulation you"

The group finally noticed the face existence, as they stare at it. This is the outer god behind the system.

"But how about I te--" The face didn't finish his words before a bright red beam hit him and dropped the system to the ground.

"I'm not really in the mood to listen to a villain speech right now, and..." Leo dropped his cannon as it disappeared with the boosted gear before he said " Do you think I'm stupid to let you buy time?"

Leo looked at the souls that were gathering under the system location. This Outer God was procrastinating until he gathers enough power to activate the system or something.

"So, this is it?" Kazuma asked, but no one replied because they were doubting life at this moment.

Leo looked at his hand as he left empty from the inside, Whitebeard sighed before looking at the clear sky, Kaguya fell to the ship as she felt this is the most anticlimactic fight she had in her life.

Saitama didn't understand what happened to these guys while Kazuma wanted to go back, and so did Misaka.

And with this, the first battle for the group ended with the most dull ending they weren't expecting.
