Chapter 297: Nika Ao

Chapter 297: Nika Ao

Seeing this manuscript made Hades realize the secret of the Divine Light Empire.

In fact, he had realized this long ago, but the appearance of this manuscript further confirmed this fact.

Afterward, Hades sent people to search using the map hidden within this manuscript.

Despite some setbacks, the devil fruit was eventually found.

This gave Hades the idea of creating a devil fruit.

The main reason for this was to counter the Nika fruit.

Although they were both mythical zoan types, the Nika fruit was special.

In The Great Sea, Nika was the legendary sun god, bringing hope and light.

It symbolized liberation and the will of freedom.

Its existence was already deeply rooted in people's hearts; even the World Government could not erase it.

The more intense the oppression and suffering in this World, the stronger the power of this devil fruit would become.

These Superpower nations were already aware of the secret of the Nika fruit.

Why did Joy Boy fail eight hundred years ago?

It was because there weren't enough people suffering in The Great Sea, and those subjected to oppression weren't miserable enough.

The belief in freedom wasn't strong enough, and the feedback power given to the Nika fruit wasn't strong enough.

The establishment of the Great Kingdom was meant to bring freedom.

To be precise, the establishment of the Great Kingdom was a confrontation between the new order and the old order.

It was a confrontation between the democratic republic system and the aristocratic slave system.

The Great Kingdom included various races from around the World, as well as the people who supported their ideals.

The system of rule throughout the kingdom adopted a parliamentary system.

In this country, there was no Noble, no King.

Everyone was of the same kind, belonging to the "D" Family.

This was also the reason why there were "D"s among the Giant Tribe; their ancestors once belonged to the Great Kingdom.

Obviously, the Great Kingdom ultimately failed.

It was annihilated by the Alliance of Strong Nations.

In the contest between the new order and the old order, the old order still held the upper hand.

Superpower nations like the Kronos Kingdom, which were independent in the Great Sea, also played a role in this process.

Because the interests they represented were the interests of the Noble class.

The Great Kingdom wanted to overthrow the Noble Order, so how could that be allowed?

Of course, the birth of the Great Kingdom also had some positive effects on the Great Sea; otherwise, the overall order would have been even more closed off.

Regarding the essence of the Nika fruit, the symbolism of its ability meant that this devil fruit was special.

For nearly eight hundred years, with the endless suffering brought by the World Government's rule over the Great Sea, the Nika fruit itself would be elevated to a terrifying degree, surpassing other top-tier devil fruits.

And this itself was brought about by the World Government.

They feared this devil fruit, yet they were also fueling its enhancement.

The darker the Great Sea became, the more Nika's arrival was needed.

Coupled with the Nika fruit's somewhat absurd, yet somewhat unsolvable ability, who could guarantee that his power of death wouldn't be assimilated by Nika's power and lose its role?

To prevent certain things from losing control, Hades had no intention of interference.

They also needed to use Nika's power to deal with the World Government.

However, they had to guard against it.

That op-op fruit absolutely cannot be used on "Joy Boy".

A dead "Joy Boy" was the only good Joy Boy.

With apprehension towards the Nika fruit, Hades decided to create a top-tier devil fruit that could counter the Nika fruit.

There was no god of darkness or god of despair in this World that could correspond to the sun god Nika.

This matter had to be carried out in secret.

Regardless of success, Hades had to give it a try.

If it really didn't work, then "Nika" could only be made to awaken prematurely.

By excessively using their ability to shorten their lifespan, Hades could also secretly assist.

This being was created by Hades.

If it was truly related to faith, then He would be born through the faith of the Kronos Kingdom's many subjects towards the Tartaros Royal Family over thousands of years.

Within the Kronos Kingdom, His existence was already being silently promoted, weaving related mythological stories to make everyone aware of Him.

Who was He?

He was the Dragon Mediator, the Eternal Wheel, the Shadow Devourer.

The future King of Gods, God Above Gods, Nine-Faced Dragon God— Ao!

And the Tartarus Family were the descendants of Ao.

In essence, this was no different from the Celestial Dragons claiming to be descendants of gods.

The Holy Light Kingdom worshipped the God of Light, and its core members were said to have the God of Light's blood flowing within them.

The Lathander Family of the Hilton Kingdom were also descendants of the so-called God of Dawn.

What about that?

Hades was a beneficiary of the existing order; it was impossible for him to betray his own class.
