Eliminate Pai and Reappearance of Byakuya Kuchiki

Another crucial point is the need for resources. Many constructions require a large amount of gold or money to manufacture. Relying solely on pirate plundering or funds from the Black Organization is obviously insufficient to support the development of a country.

Therefore, he needs to find a place that is resource-rich and can attract a large population.

He considered several places, but he decided to observe more carefully later. He is not in a hurry at the moment.

Afterward, he proceeded with the fourth card draw.

"Card Erasure: From the Cardcaptor Sakura world, it's one of the Clow Cards, possessing the magic to erase people and objects, symbolizing the stagnation of luck and a warning to 'wait a moment.' (When holding the Clow Cards while drawing, it can increase the probability of drawing other Clow Cards.)"

A card appeared in Sendo's hand, and he was slightly lost in thought.

This thing...

Seems like an item from the anime he watched when he was a child?

The Card Erasure possesses a mysterious power that can directly make people and objects disappear from this world. It can also make the disappeared person reappear, and the vanished person will forget the memories after their disappearance.

In comparison, there's another card in the Clow Cards called 'The Void,' but the power of Card Erasure is far from comparable to The Void. The Void is used to balance the other fifty-two Clow Cards, and its magic is the strongest, capable of turning everything into nothing.

While Card Erasure has a similar ability, its essence and magical power are far inferior.

If Card Erasure is considered one million item cards, then The Void would definitely be ten million item cards.

However, just like the Shikon Jewel, these cards also possess some self-awareness.

But now, in Sendo's hands, that self-awareness is very weak.

Only cards on the level of ten million items would have slightly more noticeable self-awareness.

"Now, I'm already quite perfect."

Sendo looked at the four items he obtained this time and couldn't help feeling emotional.

Item cards are indeed more powerful than character cards...

He still has a piece of Kizaru's remains in his hand, but he doesn't want to use it right now because it would only turn into a ferocious monster. It's far better to create a powerful and controlled Kizaru by producing the seed of Kizaru.

Well, let's see if there's a way to create the seed of Kizaru first. He's not in a hurry now.

Sendo thought so in his heart.

He really isn't in a hurry now. As mentioned before, after going through consecutive major events, both he and this world need some time to settle down.

Let the other clones develop slowly for now.

Machvise continues to be a mole in the World Government, Aokiji dutifully serves as an Admiral in the Marines, Hody Jones reappears in the sea to search for Shikon Jewel fragments, Byakuya Kuchiki remains a mysterious descendant of a Shinigami, attracting continuous pursuit by those in power, and Atoxkes waits for his next appearance inside the pyramid.

On the other hand, the World Government increased support for the Marines because of the false propaganda that "the Marines defeated Atoxkes." Many people were attracted to join the Marines, and the new generation of Marine forces became exceptionally powerful. The selection for the third Admiral is already underway.

More importantly, a significant number of talents joined the Marines this time, ensuring that the Marines will have sufficient strength to dominate the seas for decades to come.

The Black Organization also attracted many people to join, but due to the World Government's lack of promotion, the number of recruits was far less than the Marines.

As for Roger...

He is still in a coma.

Since Atoxkes was sealed until now, several months have passed since Sendo drew cards. During this time, Roger has been in a coma. If it weren't for his heartbeat and breathing, they would have thought Roger was dead!

Roger suffered too many injuries. He was already injured during the initial battle with Atoxkes, continued to force himself into battle with Atoxkes, got infected by Atoxkes' will, and was then forcibly controlled by Machvise, overdrawing his physical strength.

Combined, these injuries, even with the Shikon Jewel, cannot be recovered in a short time.

The Roger Pirates were mentally prepared for this, but they didn't expect Roger to remain in a coma for several months. This made them extremely worried.

Perhaps, he will sleep like this forever?

Moreover, during Roger's coma, they were hiding in the East Blue. The World Government is too wary of Roger's current strength, and they know they must take advantage of Roger's severe injuries to eliminate him. Otherwise, it will become an uncontrollable disaster.

Fortunately, they have the instant teleportation ability of the unnamed, which allows them to constantly evade the World Government's pursuit.

After Sendo drew cards, another month passed. Today, Roger, who has been in a coma, suddenly moved a bit.

?!

Rayleigh, who has been observing Roger's condition all the time, was instantly shocked and hurried over, but Roger still had his eyes tightly closed.

However, this sudden movement was enough to tighten Rayleigh's heartstrings because Roger had shown no signs of movement before this.

Does this mean that Roger is about to recover?

However, what he doesn't know is what Roger is experiencing at this moment.

As if guided by some unknown force, he seemed to enter a world of nothingness.

Here, the white sand stretched as far as the eye could see, and the sky was always dim. No matter how long passed, the sun never appeared in the sky, only a crescent moon hanging in the sky.

The surrounding world was a monotonous desert, a white desert, with occasional appearances of a few barren trees.

He had been walking for an unknown amount of time in this world.

This world had many strange creatures. They wore masks on their faces, had large holes in their chests, and exuded ominous malice and decadence, devouring each other recklessly.

Roger fought against them while walking, but they were endless. No matter how long he fought, they would continue to appear.

And at this moment, he finally saw a person.

A person different from the strange life forms he had encountered before, a person similar to himself, the person he had seen in Arabasta.

In the end, when he still had a faint impression, he saw this person appearing from the pyramid, surrounded by cherry blossoms, holding the key to hell, and taking Atoxkes away.

This is...

A descendant of the Shinigami?

"Who are you?"

Roger asked cautiously.

"Byakuya Kuchiki."

Byakuya Kuchiki calmly said.

After stating his name, he looked at Roger with cold eyes and slowly said,

"Your life in the present world has already ended, Gol D. Roger."
