Chapter 1453 Killing Two Birds With One Stone

Azief is walking alongside a large garden.

Beside him is Will, wearing normal clothes for once.

There is a table in the middle of the garden. Azief passes through a carefully carved bush and saw people on the chair surrounding the table.

It is Hirate and Raymond.

Azief walk toward them and they got up.

Azief only nodded as he sat down on the chair. Will took one of the chairs and positioned it beside Azief

Then he sat beside him

'Only a week left' Raymond suddenly said. Azief smiles but he did not answer. Instead he conjured up a cup and coffee jug.

'Let's talk while drinking' Azief pour a cup for him and Will and then he pours one for Raymond and Hirate.

There is also a bowl fill with crackers. Azief had eaten many delicious meals in his life. But for some reason he still craves coffee or milk tea with hard crackers.

There is a cracker in his country called Hup Sang.

Of course, after the Fall, there is no such thing anymore.

He thought back to the past and it felt like if he could only stuff all of it into his storage rings or something, he would have a supply of it by now.

He smiles at the thought

It is a very famous brand of crackers in his country. But, Azief stop eating it when researchers found there is traces of cancer inducing substances in it.

He doesn't know whether that is true or not, but it surely does make him think twice from eating crackers again

However, now that his lifespan is probably in then tens of thousands of years, he simply does not care even if he et uranium itself

He dips the cracker into his coffee and chew it and a smile is on his face.

An old familiar taste.

Then he looks at Raymond

'I am ready for it'

'You're sure Kaiju would come?' At this Azief smiles

'Either he came or we will have the advantage'

'The thing about my plot is that whether he came or not, we will win regardless. If he did not come and Crime Alliance and the pirate did not show any resistance at all, their people would lose heart'

'In this scenario we will win easily. And they would slowly crumble. They would think that they have no future and their safety could not be guaranteed whether they join the pirates or the Crime Alliance' Raymond nodded

Azief continue by saying.

'When I capture those ten people I am simply telling them that it is enough. They have done enough and they now have my attention'

Smiling he added

'And you should pray that you do not get my attention. Because unless you are my friend, having me putting my attention on you usually is bad'

Azief smiles and Will chuckles at this. He takes a sip of coffee and Will is also the same.

Azief is not done.

'I do not have time to crack down on them before. But now, since I am cracking down on them, they could either scatter or rise up and try to kill me'

'If they do come and they did not come with Kaiju to help them, the only result of that day, would be that they would be eradicated'

Raymond nodded. Hirate also nodded. All of them is hoping for this scenario. That Kaiju would come.

Only if he comes out, they would have the chance to snatch the trident. Jean and Hikigaya wanted to study the weapon. And Raymond needed it to somehow make his breakthrough easier and more powerful.

It would probably even repair all of his flaws in his foundation.

Azief on the other hand wanted the world to have another Divine Comprehension leveler. For now, the world only has three Divine Comprehension leveler.

Even though Adam could rust with Divine Comprehension power that is only if he uses the power of Heaven

It is the sword that bestows him power and he is not truly a Divine Comprehension leveler. But if one considered him, there is now four Divine Comprehension leveler in the world.

This is not enough. It might be able to restrain one Essence Creation level but if there is two, it is not enough.

It is still very much not enough for him

Even though Azief knows Essence Creation leveler is rare in the Universe, after all he likes to be prepared.

With the Multiversal Convergence, Earth has made itself known in the dark forest.

And some people might be eyeing on Earth. It is fine if what they do is only staring at them.

But, if they wanted to make a move…. Azief would prefer that they could defend against such threat

if they do not have the power to stop these forces, Earth would be in precarious position in the future

'The day of the execution, I would not be alone. There would be Hikigaya and Oreki and Arthur. That is four Divine Comprehension leveler. Without Kaiju, they are but lamb waiting to be slaughtered.'

This is the situation if Kaiju did not come but the other two forces came

'And if Kaiju also come along, we would grab the trident and in the end we would still win. This plot has always been a trap. It did not matter whether they come or not. We will win regardless'

Azief ended his words

Raymond look at Azief and did not know what to say. Is he really confident that he could defeat Kaiju? This is what Raymond could not figure out.

Yes, if Kaiju s still like before, this is not something that Azief needs to worry about. He would understand Azief confidence

But this Kaiju now holds the tridents.

And if he could control...truly control the Ten Seas and its properties, Kaiju would be a very formidable opponent

Azief had told him about Poseidon.

About Olympus. And knowing how powerful Poseidon is and his ability, if Kaiju could harness even ten percent of that power, there is no one on Earth that could defeat him.

Poseidon is an entirely different existence than them.

Even an Essence Creation leveler could not even lift their heads if they really fought against him

At first he didn't understand what Azief is doing. When he meets Azief and Azief explains it to him, only then he understands his plan.

Azief wanted to force Kaiju to come out.

Even when Will zipping around the world, he could not find Kaiju.

Even Azief using his Divine Sense added with the Heavenly Will surveillance could not find him. He might be hiding in some forbidden zones of the world or he might use the power of the trident to hide himself from the prying eyes of Heaven

Azief also knows that the longer the time he gave Kaiju, the more dangerous he would become. Azief likes a challenge. But he would not do something stupid like raising a tiger that could eat him

So, he had to force him out. But then why take ten people? Why gave him a months' time?

Azief explains to Raymond that Kaiju is not from this world. And he was only in this world for six months. And from the intelligence reports that the world powers have on him, he is a loner.

He had no close friends.

Even among the pirate circle, he only interacts with some of the pirate lord like Pirate Lord Mary

So, how does he force him out?

When the world power once wanted to force Death Monarch out, they would capture a bait. At that time, the bait was Sofia, Sina, Loki, Will, people he knows and people who is like a family to him

But Kaiju had no such person

So, Azief chooses another way. A way that could kill two birds with one stone. First, he captures people from the pirate circle and then also from the Crime Alliance.

Rather than letting kaiju having the initiative, Death Monarch has forced the Crime Alliance the pirates to make a move.

Kaiju may not be moved by any emotional threat.

But when he is being forced by the pirates and the Crime Alliance to enter this battle, he had no choice.

Yes, Azief is borrowing the hand of the Crime Alliance and the Pirates to force Kaiju to enter the battle.

The Crime Alliance and the Pirates both know that they would lose if they could not force Kaiju to make a move.

So, they could only pressure Kaiju to go with them to retrieve back their people.

Even Kaiju knows what to choose. If he declines, it would not only be the world powers that would become his enemies but also the Crime Alliance and the pirates

There would be no place for him under Heaven and Earth.

They probably know why Azief done this but even if they know, they still have to walk to this trap willingly because if they don't save these people, the reputation of the Crime Alliance and the pirates would fall to a freezing point and it would not be long before these two powerful forces crumble.

Because if Death Monarch could do it this time, he could do it again later. Could it be that each time Death Monarch takes a few of their members, they just need to stand still and accept?

If they did this, who would ever want to enter their organization? Who among them would feel safe? Isn't it announcing that entering these two forces is like painting a target behind their back?

So, they know, this time, they have to fight or the people of the world would truly look down on them

And in a world that is inhabited by criminals, evil people, misfits, reputation is everything
