Chapter 67 - 67

Chapter 67: Chapter 67 Noboru saw an enormous monster made of black scales, seemingly with the power to control water. The monster sent a beam of energy towards Suijin, who created a shield of water, only to have his barrier shattered.

"Impossible!" Suijin yelled as the monster shot a water beam at him and Enkai, disintegrating the Marines behind them. Noboru then saw more disciples of darkness on a nearby island.

"Quick, they are distracted. Fire," a disciple said as they created multiple void beams towards Suijin and Enkai. Noboru again protected his group. Sky, Layla, Yumeko, and Fire General Kai stared at the unfolding massacre.

'I never imagined there would be so many Void Users,' Sky thought.

"Noboru, what is going on?" Layla asked fearfully, trembling.

"Yeah, it feels like we are in danger," Yumeko said in fright, clutching Sky's arm.

"It seems I was right. Powerless people are common in Aquora for some reason and therefore are looked down upon as less than trash, which aligns with Mizuki's plan. His plan is to grant every powerless person the power of the Void to make them a disciple, to amass an army of followers for not just Void Queen Yami, but for himself too. He knows that even if Void Energy is more powerful than Aura users, the powered have more experience. The best way to combat this is to make an army which can swarm and overwhelm with their powers, nullifying the advantages of the powered," Noboru explained.

"Are we in danger?" Sky asked.

"Sky, calm down. You forget I am one of the most powerful beings in existence," Noboru said as he looked at the Disciples Of Darkness and then to the Leviathan. 'I should probably take out these Disciples first,' Noboru thought.

"Water God Suijin, hand over the trident and prepare for execution," Noboru heard the Disciples Of Darkness's group priest say. Noboru smiled, sensing their Void Energy.

'This should be fun,' Noboru said.

"You dare demand I, Water God Suijin, comply with orders made by a powerless?" Suijin shouted arrogantly. Noboru chuckled at Suijin's stupidity.

"Well then, we will kill you and take the trident and your kingdom ourselves," one disciple said as Noboru created a telekinesis field and brought them all towards him. The group landed in front of Noboru and the others.

"Who are you?" "You dare get in the way of our noble goals." "You will die with the Water God." Noboru chuckled at their threats.

"You guys are funny. Well then, it's my time to get involved and show you true power," Noboru said as he instantly appeared in front of the Disciples Of Darkness's group priest. "Time for you to die," Noboru said as he grabbed the priest's head and crushed it.

"Impossible, Lord Yuya is dead," a disciple yelled fearfully. Noboru simply stared at the terrified disciples. S~eaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Impossible it is not. You will now see true power," Noboru said as with a mere hand gesture, they all turned to dust. Noboru then turned towards the Leviathan. 'I guess I should stop the Leviathan,' Noboru thought as he flew towards the beast.

"Ha, even the great hero needed the Trident to defeat this beast," Suijin sneered. "What hope does this outsider have? He may be more powerful than me, but this beast will rip him to shreds."

Noboru, hearing this, couldn't help but scoff.

"Noboru, that's a beast of legend. Come back," Yumeko yells while holding onto Sky.

"Noboru can win, Yumeko. Don't worry, remember he's always beaten everyone he's faced," Sky said.

Enkai laughed derisively. "Let's see if this so-called Blacknight's power can stand against a real challenge. One from legend."

Noboru, hearing Enkai, got a smile on his face, eager to shut the arrogant Kouki and Meiyo wannabe up.

"Oh yeah, Noboru will beat him," Layla replied confidently.

"We will see, we will see," Enkai said.

Noboru, getting closer, was unshaken by the Leviathan's daunting presence. He landed on the ground and stepped forward. The beast roared, spotting Noboru, sending tidal waves crashing around them. "Let's see if you are worthy of your legend," Noboru said, his eyes fixed on the Leviathan. "Because to me, you are just a dumb oversized seaworm."

The Leviathan, getting enraged, lunged, its enormous jaws wide open, aiming to swallow Noboru whole. The spectators gasped, but Noboru calmly raised his hand. "Let's see if your teeth can penetrate this," he declared, and a force field of shimmering energy formed around him, repelling the Leviathan's attack effortlessly.

"Impossible," Suijin stuttered out as he and Enkai exchanged incredulous glances, their arrogance faltering.

"That should not be possible. Fighting the Leviathan without Poseidon's Trident is suicide, but this Blackstar Knight is doing it with no problem," the marines murmured among themselves, their faith in their leaders shaken.

Unaffected by the comments around him, Noboru levitated, rising to meet the Leviathan's gaze. "Let's raise the stakes. Omni Energy Technique: Absorption." He extended his hands, and the Leviathan's next attack, a blast of dark, abyssal water aura energy, was absorbed into Noboru's palms, leaving no trace.

"How is this possible?" Suijin yelled out.

"He... This man absorbed the Leviathan's attack like nothing, the same attack that destroyed a city," Enkai stuttered, making Noboru raise his eyes. A city in Aeritha would be considered anywhere from galaxy to multi-galaxy size in his home world, depending on the size of the city. But Aquora was a higher and bigger realm/kingdom compared to Aeritha, so big that a droplet of water was said to be so large that it contained an infinite hierarchy of dimensions with many different timelines in the worlds that the dimensions held. If you looked at the droplet you could watch multiple stories play out and comprehend all the stories being played out at the same time.

Yumeko, Layla, Sky, and Fire General Kai were speechless. They never expected Noboru's chikara to have this level of power.

The Leviathan, feeling enraged at the humiliation Noboru was giving it, summoned a whirlpool, attempting to trap Noboru in its deadly spiral. Noboru simply hovered above it, unaffected. "No, no, no, no," he calmly said as he used space manipulation on the whirlpool, and the whirlpool's direction reversed, throwing the Leviathan off balance.

The beast, now visibly enraged, growled and roared as it tried to ensnare Noboru with its colossal tentacles. "Time Slow Down," Noboru whispered, and in an instant, he used time manipulation to slow down the movements of the Leviathan as it slowed to a crawl, giving him the opportunity to maneuver effortlessly around its attacks. Although he could have taken the attack and not been affected, Noboru decided he would practice more with his powers and abilities so he could use them effectively.

"You need more than size and brute strength," Noboru said, addressing the Leviathan as if it could understand him. He crafted weapons of pure energy, resembling spears, and launched them at the Leviathan. The spears pierced the beast's hide, not to kill, but to subdue, draining its energy and pacifying its rage. The Leviathan let out a pain-filled screech, shocking everyone. They were speechless; the beast that made the hero use the trident was easily beaten by the Blackstar Knight.

The Leviathan, weakened and subdued, retreated back into the depths of the ocean, its threat neutralized without the need for the Trident or any loss of life.

The spectators were silent, their previous arrogance replaced with a mix of respect and disbelief. Suijin, his pride wounded, could barely conceal his astonishment. "How... How is this possible?" he stammered.

Enkai, his voice barely a whisper, said, "He didn't just defeat the Leviathan; he made it look effortless."

Layla, Kai, Yumeko, and Sky looked at each other, their expressions a mix of awe and pride. "Noboru," Layla said, "is not just powerful. He's on a level we can't even comprehend."

Sky looked at Layla with pride in Noboru. "Yep, Noboru is an entity that can't be defeated or described. His power and abilities can't be compared to anyone in existence. He might be the most powerful entity in all of existence."

Noboru, hearing Sky's words, floated down. "That Leviathan was nothing compared to me; it was weak. I never even had to use my true powers," Noboru stated, shocking everyone – Suijin, Enkai, the marines, and the Aquoran Nobles. They were all shocked that Noboru Chikara wasn't even using his full power.

Noboru, satisfied with his performance, headed towards his companions. "Well then, let's head off to the capital," Noboru said as he enjoyed the fear of Suijin and his marines.
