Benedict's eyes gleamed as he heard Brook's words, quickly pinpointing the coordinates he mentioned.
The next moment, Benedict flew out of the Xuanwu Naval Division headquarters.
The coordinates were in the North Sea.
Benedict was very fast.
Many things blurred and receded in Benedict's vision.
Soon.
As Benedict arrived, powerful auras erupted into the sky.
Then, he saw demons ascending into the high heavens.
Benedict narrowed his eyes as he watched these demons.
Among these ten demons, one felt extremely powerful to Benedict.
According to the tester, its combat power index reached the SS+ level.
Benedict's appearance quickly drew the attention of these demons.
Green Bull, who was summoning demons underground, also sensed Benedict's aura.
His expression changed drastically.
"It's Benedict, why is he here?"
The CP0 agents guarding him also changed their expressions upon hearing Green Bull's words.
They were well aware of Benedict's strength.
Therefore, they immediately retreated.
Without any hesitation.
At the same time, the demons in the sky launched an attack on Benedict.
"A mere ant, daring to contend with the sun and moon?"
Benedict extended his hand and threw a punch at the approaching demon.
Boom!
Immense power erupted instantly.
Clearly a Zoan-type demon, it was sent flying by Benedict's punch.
The other demons were shocked by Benedict's might.
Roar!
Just then, a demon activated its ability.
It was a fierce gale. Benedict's fist collided with it, and the sleeve of his right arm was torn.
Benedict frowned, then a smile appeared on his face.
The strength of these demons was not to be underestimated.
Benedict began to unleash his full power.
A fierce battle ensued, with both sides clashing.
One, two, three demons were successively killed by Benedict.
Green Bull and the others, watching the fallen demons from their ship, were still filled with fear.
As expected of the Xuanwu Naval Fleet Admiral, the foremost person in the world today.
"Bang!"
The Yama Yama no Mi user took the lead in offense, while the remaining demons provided support, managing to put Benedict under some pressure.
Furthermore, the Yama Yama no Mi's power could freeze space, and Benedict's body was invaded by this power with every exchange.
Consequently, Benedict was covered in frost.
However, this did not significantly affect his combat power.
The continuous battle between the two sides caused increasingly large disturbances.
This was quickly discovered by intelligence operatives, who relayed the information.
"Three Thousand Thunder Strikes."
Benedict seized an opportunity and struck instantly.
The Yama Yama no Mi user retreated, and three nearby demons quickly moved to block in front of him.
The bodies of those three demons began to crumble, on the verge of death.
Yet, at that moment, the Yama Yama no Mi user opened his mouth, and a massive black hole appeared.
A bone-chilling Yama Yama energy surged forth from the black hole.
The demons, who were about to perish, were instantly restored to their intact state.
Benedict's eyes widened at this sight.
This fellow could actually revive those on the verge of death.
"Heh heh!"
"As expected of a demon who controls the power of the underworld."
Benedict sighed in admiration but was also certain that this opponent could not be allowed to leave alive.
Benedict unleashed his full power.
The Yama Yama no Mi user remained the primary attacker, withstanding Benedict's assaults.
When sensing a fatal crisis, he would immediately have the surrounding demons take his place, and then the Yama Yama no Mi user would restore them to their intact state.
In the distance, Green Bull, holding a telescope, marveled at the Yama Yama no Mi user's power and was also incredibly excited.
If utilized properly, the Yama Yama no Mi user's potential was immense.
He absolutely could not let the Yama Yama no Mi user be killed.
Thus, Green Bull directly contacted the Five Elders, reporting the situation.
The Five Elders were shocked and equally thrilled upon receiving this news.
This was because the Yomi Yomi no Mi itself occupied a significant position in their plans.
It was the perfect partner for their alliance with the Soul Demon.
Therefore, after deliberation, the Five Elders decided to contact Im.
At this juncture, the only one capable of contending with Benedict and saving the Yama Yama no Mi user immediately was their revered deity, Lord Im.
On the fierce battlefield,
Several islands had already been blown apart by the combat.
Despite Benedict's efforts to avoid collateral damage, the demons intentionally guided the fights.
Benedict was helpless.
He suddenly found it strange that he, with SS-level combat power, could not defeat the Yama Yama no Mi user.
This fellow had dodged his fatal attacks several times.
Each time, he was fortunate enough to have someone else take the hit.
"Death Gate, open!"
Benedict no longer concealed his power and directly activated the Death Gate.
Instantly, Benedict's strength erupted to its peak state.
Whoosh!
Benedict traversed through the surrounding demons at extreme speed, appearing before the Yama Yama no Mi user.
A punch descended.
The Yama Yama no Mi user was somewhat careless, believing his previous tactics could still block Benedict.
He never expected Benedict to suddenly unleash such incredible speed, instantly teleporting before him.
Boom!
The demon was sent plummeting into the sea by Benedict's punch.
Waves hundreds of meters high surged.
As the waves rose, Benedict's body descended again.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The very earth trembled as Benedict's fists struck repeatedly.
However, due to the power of the Yomi Yomi no Mi, the Yama Yama no Mi user's head was blown apart, only to be instantly restored.
Not just his head, but his limbs too.
"I refuse to believe I can't kill you."
Benedict's temper flared. At such close range, he unleashed Three Thousand Thunder Strikes once more.
At that very instant, a rift appeared beside him, and a figure emerged, launching an attack on Benedict.
Benedict, caught off guard, was directly sent flying.
He soared through the sea, eventually crashing heavily into a colossal underwater mountain.
It was Im.
That fellow had actually appeared.
Benedict sensed Im's aura and flew out of the sea.
Coincidentally, Benedict saw Im flying out with the Yama Yama no Mi user.
The Yama Yama no Mi user was still completely unharmed.
"This is quite unexpected."
"It's fortunate you didn't kill him, otherwise, I would have lost a valuable general."
Im looked at the drenched and somewhat disheveled Benedict and smiled.
"The next time we meet, it will be the end of your Xuanwu Navy."
