Chapter 46: Terrifying Titan
Hades stood on the rooftop, completely unharmed.
The splashing debris and impact force were easily deflected by the invisible barrier formed by Haki Emission.
The immense destruction from just one strike left some not yet dead, some severely injured, and others watching from afar.
Except for Hades, everyone stared in shock at Titan's figure, which resembled a Demon God.
Only then did they realize what kind of Monster they were truly facing.
The closer one was to Titan, the more horrific the situation became, especially for those who were no longer recognizable as human; it was simply unbearable to look at.
Their hearts were already filled with fear, feeling Titan's terrifying aura and unconcealed killing intent.
Even those further away who didn't know what was happening were deeply shaken by the scene Titan had created.
They didn't dare to approach at all, fearing they would be caught in the aftermath.
However, the matter was not over.
Titan turned his head, grabbed his Twin Hammers, and began to walk slowly.
Thud!
Thud!
His footsteps sounded heavy, accompanied by a "gurgling" sound.
Everyone watched Titan's figure in terror.
As Titan walked, he swung his arms casually.
And with each swing, he accurately struck the fallen, injured Pirate and Criminal.
To be precise, it was their heads!
Every step he took meant one or two people's heads were smashed and blown apart by the hammers.
Flesh and blood were mangled, and brains spilled onto the ground.
Even those who prided themselves on being vicious Pirate felt an unbearable urge to vomit at this sight; it was truly disgusting.
"Devil!"
"Devil!"
In their eyes, Titan was like a Devil, cruelly finishing off the fallen and harvesting lives in this manner.
Titan, however, did not feel disgusted; instead, he felt a sense of excitement.
On Rusukaina Island, except for at night, Titan and Hades were generally separated.
Finding preparing food troublesome and impatient to satisfy his appetite, Titan often ate Wild Beasts raw when he couldn't wait.
Like a savage, he only needed to sprinkle some seasoning.
With the power of the Taotie Fruit and its strong digestive ability, Titan would not feel any discomfort in his body.
He enjoyed the feeling of fullness from savoring food; generally, he wouldn't directly refine it into energy using Devouring Power.
Eating is human nature, and it was also Titan's innate hobby.
The Taotie Fruit further enhanced Titan's instinct to devour.
It was not something that could be simply replaced by using Devouring Power alone.
Having eaten large quantities of Wild Beasts raw, Titan was completely unaffected by this scene.
"Run, quick, run!"
Facing the constantly slaughtering Titan, the number of living people in this area was rapidly decreasing, and it would soon be their turn.
"Move!"
Severely injured, their bodies felt drained of strength, as if completely emptied.
They wanted to escape, to break free from Titan's clutches.
On the periphery, a small number of people who were still in good condition found that their bodies couldn't move.
An invisible oppressive feeling made their bodies completely unable to move.
Since he had said he would kill everyone, how could Hades allow anyone to escape?
As for Conqueror's Haki, Hades could already control it precisely; the powerful oppressive feeling affected their movements.
Seizing this opportunity, Titan also quickened his pace, shifting his target from the injured and immobile to the Pirate who had a chance to escape.
Cooperating with Hades' Conqueror's Haki, he eliminated them one by one, preventing anyone from escaping.
This was a massacre; there was no ability to resist at all.
Soon, only Hades and Titan were left standing in this area; the onlookers in the distance didn't dare to approach.
No one dared to approach at this time.
Hades simply watched all of this quietly.
He felt no discomfort at all regarding the scene, which was like Hell.
"Let's go."
Hades said calmly.
Since their objective had been achieved, there was no need to stay any longer.
Hearing Hades' voice, Titan hammered the last person to death, dragging his Twin Hammers, which had turned blood-red, with blood constantly dripping from them.
Following Hades' departing steps, he walked into the distance.
After the two had completely left, the area remained silent; people didn't even dare to approach.
Even the Cleaners, who were used to corpses, didn't dare to step forward at this moment, their arms trembling slightly.
Because the scene was simply too disgusting.
This was a senseless massacre.
Many of the people involved were simply caught in the crossfire and hadn't participated at all.
When Hades secretly released his Conqueror's Haki, he had already marked the scope of the slaughter.
But were there any innocent people among them?
Kent Island was a specialized black market Island, filled with Underworld Forces and Pirate.
There were simply no good people on this Island.
Even if there were civilians, they were either killed or had fled to other places long ago.
Even the hostesses in the red-light district might have killed people and held the identity of a Pirate.
In Hades' eyes, there was simply no one on this Island who couldn't be killed.
Even the Marines, if they were to attack this Island, wouldn't easily spare anyone.
In this World, apart from himself, there were basically no rules that could restrain him.
If there were truly innocent civilians, Hades wouldn't have attacked them.
Furthermore, there were simply too many reasons to kill.
After a long while, someone finally dared to slowly approach this "human world Hell".
"Are those two guys really not afraid of being held accountable? Causing such a huge incident."
Looking at the disappearing figures, his voice was still trembling as he spoke.
Nearly two entire streets were destroyed.
Many of the properties belonged to those Underworld Forces, and behind them even stood the Dark King of the New World.
As for the remaining buildings, to operate on the Island, they all had to pay taxes to the Island's rulers.
With such massive losses, someone would definitely have to pay the price.
It seemed some people were already anticipating and expecting someone to deal with these two guys who appeared out of nowhere.
However, the terrifying combat strength Titan displayed left some people with little expectation.
Such a Monster might be someone even the Underworld Forces wouldn't dare to offend.
It was unknown if there was any strength on the Island capable of dealing with them.
In the New World, those who understand the times are heroes!
If they were truly people they couldn't afford to offend, then they would just have to accept these losses.
In the New World, what determines one's status is always strength, not business.
For example, four or five years ago, a major earthquake occurred in the Underground World of the New World.
The Dark King, who controlled the New World's largest supply source, the King of Arms of the Underground World, was assassinated.
The entire Arms Trade chain in the New World fell into chaos.
Countless Factions competed, wanting to seize more profits and occupy the market.
Some even aimed to become the new King of Arms, the King of the Underground World.
However, in just one month, the Faction of the man named Victor rapidly expanded, easily taking over two-thirds of the former King of Arms' Faction.
In the following month, relying on superior arms, Victor established trade connections with various Factions in the New World, including the Rocks Pirates.
This was not the end.
In yet another month, several Factions in the New World that had significant competitiveness in the Arms Trade were successively destroyed or subjugated.
Some Factions had existed for years, holding their own territory, which even the former King of Arms couldn't interfere with.
Just like that, Victor annexed them, officially becoming the Dark King of the New World, the uncrowned King of the Arms Trade.
The renowned Dark King was thus replaced.
He even held a higher share of the Arms Trade in the New World than the previous King of Arms.
