Raizo had managed to momentarily disrupt him, but Nagiro was beyond containment. His mission was absolute—to erase everything unnecessary.
And his first target?
Hell.
Hell had already been weakened after Nagiro’s emergence. Now, with a mere wave of his hand, the final remnants of the underworld collapsed.
The strongest devils, the rulers of eternal torment, screamed as their very existence faded into nothing.
- The burning rivers dried into endless emptiness.
- The screams of the tormented turned into silence.
- The gates of Hell crumbled—not destroyed, but erased.
Nagiro had not just conquered Hell.
He had erased it from the fabric of reality.
The balance of the universe was broken. Souls that were meant to suffer now had no destination. A cosmic shift had begun.
But while the universe trembled, Raizo saw an opportunity.
A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Raizo stood at the edge of a ruined battlefield, his eyes reflecting the destruction Nagiro had caused.
Tenzir clenched his fists. "Hell is gone. That means… no more demons?"
Raizo smirked. "No more reinforcements for Ryuketsu."
For years, Ryuketsu relied on Hell’s creatures to build his dark army. But with Hell erased, his forces were now crippled.
"This is our moment," Raizo said, his aura crackling with immense power. "If we attack now, we can end Ryuketsu before Nagiro reaches us."
Tenzir nodded. "Then let's strike before it's too late!"
With Nagiro focused on destroying realms, Raizo and his team launched a full-scale assault on Ryuketsu’s stronghold.
Their attacks tore through his remaining forces.
With Hell erased, no demons could revive.
For the first time, Ryuketsu was on the defensive.
Raizo moved in for the final blow. His Infinity Strike surged, ready to finish Ryuketsu—
But then—BOOM!
An unseen force repelled him, launching Raizo backward.
The air crackled with overwhelming power.
And standing before Ryuketsu was a single figure.
Zenmu.
His eyes cold and unshaken. His presence unbreakable.
"You should know better, Raizo," Zenmu spoke calmly. "Ryuketsu is not yours to destroy."
Raizo gritted his teeth. "You’re protecting him?"
Zenmu’s power flared, pushing Raizo and Tenzir back.
Ryuketsu smirked, standing behind his greatest shield. "Did you think I would fall so easily?"
With Zenmu’s defense, Ryuketsu was now untouchable.
Raizo clenched his fists.
The war was far from over.
