It erased the Haki and also erased his demonic energy slash.
It was more like a rule, a law, an absolute power.
"Who knows? Get out of the way, or do you want to turn into an ice sculpture too?"
Vladimir walked forward without stopping.
Simultaneously, within his mind, information about the Zero Transformation was being updated.
Zero Transformation: Phantom God · Vladimir (True Body)
Star Rating: ★★☆☆☆☆
Ability One: Phantom Body Control
Ability Two: Fantasy Annihilation
...
The so-called Fantasy Annihilation included Haki, demonic energy, and all Devil Fruit abilities!
Vladimir had already known this, but now he had finally confirmed it.
He suspected that even Whitebeard's shockwave power, capable of overturning oceans and shattering islands, would be erased the moment it touched his body.
Thinking this, Vladimir felt neither joy nor sorrow. He walked forward step by step, unhurriedly.
The old man with the sword's heart trembled, but he didn't dare to attack rashly with the long sword in his hand.
As Vladimir approached step by step, the pressure he exerted grew exponentially.
That person seemed to be from a different dimension. He couldn't even sense his presence.
"What kind of monster is this! No wonder he can lead a group of little monsters from the Phantom Organization! No wonder BIG·MOM was destroyed overnight…"
...
As Vladimir approached step by step, cold sweat dripped from the old man's forehead.
The power displayed by Emperor Qin was not a matter of strength but of effortlessly neutralizing all attacks and freezing the old man with the cane with a casual palm strike.
"You bastard…!"
The old man with the sword instinctively took a step back, hoping to maintain a safe distance.
However, the moment he spoke, in the next instant, Vladimir's figure suddenly disappeared from his field of vision.
The old man was certain he hadn't been distracted or careless. In just an instant, his eyes couldn't track the opponent's movements, and his Observation Haki couldn't even sense him.
His pupils contracted, and the old man with the sword suddenly turned around. Looking behind him, his expression changed drastically.
At some unknown time, Vladimir had already passed him and was heading deeper in.
"Damn it! Such speed…"
The old man with the sword gritted his teeth and no longer hesitated. He raised the blade upwards, level with his shoulder. In the next instant, he and the demonic sword in his hand seemed to become one, and he lunged forward.
It was as if a demon god was roaring, or as if countless wronged souls were wailing.
Just as the sword was about to stab Vladimir's back, the old man with the sword's expression jolted. He abruptly retracted his force and stepped sideways to evade.
Swoosh!
A shadow blade grazed his right arm.
"You're quite reactive," Shadow Fiend said with a light chuckle, holding the shadow blade.
Hearing this, the old man with the sword was both shocked and enraged, staring at Shadow Fiend in disbelief.
If he hadn't had a premonition of danger and instinctively dodged, his chest would have been pierced just now.
"Even this guy's speed is this fast? Impossible, at that distance, unless it's instant movement!"
As if reading his thoughts, Shadow Fiend's gaze turned playful. With a thought, his entire body dispersed into a cloud of black smoke.
The next second, behind the old man with the sword, on his shadow, a dark figure materialized again.
And the moment he appeared, a shadow blade stabbed towards his back.
"It really is instant movement!"
The old man with the sword swept his sword back, and with a light clink, he narrowly blocked the attack.
"Your reaction is quite good. I imagine you must have been a great master in your youth."
Shadow Fiend said playfully, his interest piqued. "However, challenging Emperor Qin, you're still a thousand years too early!"
Regardless of their ongoing struggle.
Vladimir ignored them and walked directly towards the depths.
The space in the second basement level was vast, comparable to half a football field. The twelve stone pillars were tens of meters high, making the entire area appear extremely quiet.
Walking all the way to the end, Vladimir finally reached the destination.
· However, at the end, there was no door. It was a wall, indistinguishable from the other walls.
"Hmm? Is there a secret door?"
Vladimir raised an eyebrow and tried to sense what was behind the wall. However, in his perception, it was indeed just a wall, with nothing unusual behind it.
"Hmph… What a pity, your plan has failed!"
At this moment, the old man with the sword spoke mockingly. "Since I knew you would appear, how could I not have made preparations in advance?"
"Is that so?" Vladimir turned around slowly and said softly, "Then I'll capture you and let the World Government ransom you. I wonder, how much is your life worth?"
Hearing this, the old man with the sword's eyes flashed. "Are you crazy! You want to start a war!"
"Hehehehe…"
Shadow Fiend couldn't help but laugh. Taking advantage of the opponent's distraction, he instantly flashed into his shadow.
The next moment, his body merged into the shadow and slowly sank down.
