On her way out, Genjitsu-no-Omnia found a note left by Agent Jones. She recognized the writing, and read it.
"Oh, it's you, the same one who killed me. Thanks goodness, I somehow got back as a ghost, because I was immortal. I sneaked to your works and found out some... interesting threat You're making. Don't expect to catch me before I make my moves, because I'm gonna save the reality! You have gone too far, the so-called Zero."
"Damn it!" Genjitsu-no-Omnia is frustrated. "How could this immortal bozo...!"
Omnia punched the Chrome wall, splashing it out onto her body, briefly chromifying her. *awkward silence*
"Hmph." Genjitsu-no-Omnia walked away.
Meanwhile...
"People gathered together." Ingrid noted. "What do you think, Ms. Urashima?"
"Why not?" Chizuru Urashima responded.
"We've got 10 crystals in total." Noctis reported. "We don't know is there any more though."
Everyone gathered to the Bridge, just to hear Geno's story.
"Tell the story." Suzuka-hime told Geno. "In listening.
"Ok, so Omnia beating me up was the latest in my shit against her." Geno explained. "The first time dated back to her first breakout."
"When I felt I'm done with the Cube King, I met her in... uh... her original form. Her skin is a gradient of bright blue and hot and deep purple, and she has iridescent hair." Geno told the story. "We tried to catch her, but she attacked me and escaped."
"Much later, when I meet her again, she has changed, but still has the same hair. I recognized her, but she nearly killed me and destroyed the Zero Point." Geno continued. "I lost the memories of those two confrontations, and is tested into my own path: same Imagined Order, and same events."
"The second batch is similar but different: she is even more aware of my powers, and she knows me even further." Geno continued. "Few batches of confrontations later, she has a fully idea of what I am capable of."
"And for each cycles of breaking the Zero Point, I lost the memories of the previous cycle preceding the incumbent one." Geno explained how. "The length of each cycles varied, but the first and last confrontations of each cycles went as well as with the first cycle."
"For every roughly a few dozens of cycles, she vastly changes her appearances but retain the color of her hair, and sometimes, have the original skin tone." Geno continued. "She gets stronger with each cycles, and it became easier for her to beat me, this requiring less effort on her part."
"This continued for... how many years?" Lucy asked.
"Based on her appearances and experiences, as far as I can tell, once a year for her, but the cycles for me, as I said, varies in length." Geno revealed. "Anyways, the cycles continued for a total of over a thousand of human years on her part, though in the last few cycles..."
"What?" David questioned. "You didn't meet her near the Zero Point those times?"
"Yep, that's right." Geno confirmed. "In the last few cycles, I didn't see the Zero Point being destroyed by her. The last time I saw her before its latest destruction was..."
"When?" Everyone else asked.
"I was killed by her in Reality-659, just before she got her hand on Zero Point." Geno revealed. "This is the last time I got killed."
"You nearly died while we were in P-1 Grand Prix Cross Edition." System No. XX noted.
"Yes, but Kiana rescued me and that... uh... subject." Geno pointed out the Origin. "Yeah, that Cube King. Both saved by a Valkyrja."
"Where's Kiana?" Xiaomu asked.
"In Reality-2147483647." Beep-O revealed.
"Then... well... how about the CXA?" Simon the Digger asked.
"Well, I'll tell you how CXA existed." Ms. Continuum took turn. "Continuum Exploitation Authority is the dimensional organization, to seize against the rogue realities and paradoxes, and protect the omniverse itself."
"The CXA was formed after a dozen of cycles, with all the remnants of these gathering together to unite and save the omniverse." Ms. Continuum told the story. "The founding members are all from the first dozen of cycles, with the omniverse around them being destroyed, only recreated because Zero Point reconstructed itself every time."
"Sure, all the survivors of the Zero Point destruction across the first dozen of cycles... then they recruited the survivors from the next cycles onwards?" Reiji asked.
"Basically. Ultimately, we've been fighting against Omnia ever since the early days of the CXA." Ms. Continuum continued. "We also had to find a way to dampen the destruction in case the destruction is either final or being leading to something far worse."
"We have calculated the properties of the possibilities, and came to the conclusion that the Zero Point cannot reconstruct itself anymore, and Omnia is looking to reconstruct it for nefarious purposes." System No. XX pointed it out.
"We came to the exact same conclusion, just in time for the final cycle." Ms. Continuum revealed. "If we didn't succeed in dampening things, you wouldn't have been able to mess with Omnia's plan, because at that point, almost all of you would have lost your existence at that moment."
"So the consequences in the first day after the end was... the absolute best scenario!?" Reiji is shocked.
"Precisely. Our protection worked as well as we've hoped." Ms. Continuum revealed further. "The rifts resulted only destabilized the omniverse, not crashing and bursting it to practical oblivion like we'd have feared."
"Oh god..." David replied. "So we're all extremely lucky, so much so that Omnia has to kill us semi-automatically using her servants and their plans!"
"The Last Reality is still there, and it's about to be abused." Ms. Continuum revealed again.
"No..." The Cube Queen is scared.
"This is ridiculous...!" The Origin couldn't believe in it.
"Well, then we're glad we all survived and kept existing to this day." The Foundation told everyone. "Tonight, we infiltrate Reality-2147483647."
"No, we're exhausted right now." Due politely refuted. "Right, darling?"
Almost everyone else, including Meden, all agreed.
"Well, and we needs some time to analyze things and prepare, so..." Lucy continued.
"Very well... If so..." David replied.
"Then let's do it tomorrow." Ms. Continuum decided.
"Oh, Conti, it's evening already?" Hoshimatsu noticed.
"Yeah... right." David confirmed. "See ya!"
Everyone dispatched and went on break. The preparations are being made to the next day for Reality-2147483647.
At night, in Reality-2147483647...
"All right, so there's some war..." Agent Jones is walking around.
He saw a half corpse of a boy named Kamijou Touma. It's the right side, and is clean cut to microscopic level. Alongside that was the recently dead corpse of a man named Gene, exposing both hands.
"Heh, I was living all that abyss of time, so why not?" Jonesy then possessed Gene, quickly found out that he can possess people.
Gene woke up, out of the bloodied mess, and has been revived by Honest, sure to the latter's immortality combined with newfound ghost abilities. 'Gene' looked at both hand, revealing them to be the God Hands.
Cross-trivia: The God Hands are a pair of arms with blue flame-like tattoos on them. originally belonged to a mysterious and legendary hero known as theGodhand Warrior, who defeated the evil Angra far back in history, and although this man may be long gone, somehow his arms still remained. Wanting to protect this power, a group of humans formed a clan to protect these legendary limbs from people who would seek to use this powers for nefarious purposes.
"Oh, the powers...!" Jonesy in Gene's body. "Can't wait to try it!"
Jonesy then went out to rip the right hand out of Touma half, which caused something, then followed by... eight dragons. As it turns out, it's the Imagine Breaker and its extension transferring into the right hand. As a result, the tattoo on the right hand changed to light blue.
"Whoa!" Jonesy is surprised.
Jonesy is excited to gain the power, in addition to the Loopers' abilities and his traditional skills, he now has the God Hands and the Imagine Breaker.
"To say this is exciting is just an understatement now!" Jonesy rejoiced.
The quiet still applies around... until a corrupted Ferronis passes by. Jonesy took the chance and uppercuts the Ferronis. Result: it explodes in the air.
"Well, I still needs to hone this a bit." Jonesy decided to train himself.
So he did. Practicing some martial arts, and adapting with his new body and newfound powers. As the night passes, Jonesy went on to master out his new body in order to survive.
Day 20, when the alliance and the CXA is about to wake up, Jonesy is done, finally grasping everything he got.
"This corpse feels surprisingly good, now that I am in full control!" Jonesy exclaimed.
He walked back towards the Sanctum, and then looked at the portal, revealing the island-ship.
"Wait... the island is gone, and this... uh... what's this?" Jonesy looked at it.
He quickly realized that the Reality Zero has been destroyed for real, just to be restored soon for the abuse.
"Bruh!" Jonesy kept walking.
As he approaches the door to the below, Jonesy is blocked by Ikue Higashi as Cure Union, and a magical girl similar to the Herald, the same as what Dr. Manhattan encountered.
"Wait... how did you come back to life?" Union is confused.
"Gene... the one with the God Hands..." The magical girl similar to Herald.
"What? You're some..." Jonesy is confused.
"Magical girls!" Union and the magical then attacked Jonesy.
Jonesy is forced to fight hand-to-hand combat against the two magical girls. However, he proved to be quite formidable, much to the magical girls' annoyance. They then magically bombarded Jonesy, but Jonesy used the Imagine Breaker to cancel it out.
"How!? You've got Imagine Breaker!?" Union is shocked.
Jonesy then did a quick charge to Kamehameha using the extension of Imagine Breaker, and managed to beat out Union, turning defeated back into Ikue. Seeing the girl detransformed, the magical girl similar to Herald is enraged.
"You...!" The magical girl is enraged. "That's it!"
The magical girl quickly summoned Omne, the Controller of Creation... except chromified.
"Chromne! Come!" The magical girl yelled, then teleported to Ikue.
Omne rises up from the Chrome, and winked.
"What the... this!?" Jonesy is shocked.
Omne tried to crush Jonesy with her hands, but Jonesy dodged it. He ran away.
"Miss Union, I'm sorry for this..." The magical girl teleported Ikue into medical.
Omne is decommissioned, and sinks down to the Chrome. Meanwhile, Jonesy is tired from the things.
"I'm tired again. Maybe the ghost has its own quirks." Jonesy admitted, and sat down.
Jonesy took a break for a while, then continued. He sneaked to the Sanctum, and down with it. He stole a lightsaber and an EvoChrome AK-47 (a chromified AK-47), and sneaked around.
Then he stumbled across an armor on a crystal cocoon. It was the Mecha Strike Sentry. Jonesy, in Gene's body, shattered the crystal cocoon with the God Hands, and took the armor.
"Finally, something for better survival!" Jonesy stripped Gene, leaving the body with only underwear.
Security alert suddenly activated, letting some sentries know. Jonesy quickly put the armor on, and prepared for battle. Suddenly, the armor on the right hand reacted with the Imagine Breaker and its extensions, causing it to become dark grey.
"Intruder alert! Intruder alert! Intruder alert!" The sentries, who're based on the kidnapped residents of the Last Reality, appeared.
The sentries shot Jonesy, but the Imagine Breaker combined with the armor repelled the (rather not very powerful) projectiles. Jonesy then charged ahead, and quickly ripped a few sentries' body. He punched another sentry, by proxy pushing the sentries on the way out.
Some sentries then tried to slash him, but Jonesy punched one, again, and then drawed the lightsaber like katana, slashing another three in the wake upon draw. Then Jonesy headshot some of the remaining sentries, leading to rest retreating.
"Nice! This is so cool!" Jonesy enjoyed the powers.
Another sentry then threw a corruption fireball to Jonesy, who catches and crushes it with his right hand.
"No... He's becoming..." The sentry tried to run away.
Jonesy did a dashing samurai strike with the lightsaber, slashing the sentry, killing them. Jonesy approached behind the crystal cocoon, and stole the (sacred) Zero Shard, which is among what remains of Zero Point.
"I'm gonna save the reality, and bring omniversal justice to everything!" Jonesy then sneaked away.
Across the sprawling base, Jonesy sneaked in and killed sentries without them noticing much further. With the Zero Shard, Jones got the power of creation in his own tricks. He embed the Shard into the armor, turning the left hand armor into light blue and added the cyber-lines of Zero Point colours across the armor. Jonesy kept sneaking.
A while later, he found a list of captives on a modified leaderboard. It shows all the surviving Loopers, which turns out to be really few, only barely than a couple of tens. Barely less than a hundred of islanders survived, based on it, with Midas, the Spire Assassin, and the main Loopers among them.
"There are so few survivors, among the thousands and thousands of targets!" Jonesy realized.
Jonesy found a commander and a certain random omnipotent being to be among the surviving targets.
"Commander Flameal15k... Vivian Veravenora Vitrimithios Melissa Konig... wait, do I know them?" Jonesy found out. "Let's locate them, just in case!"
Now that Jonesy uploaded the exact coordinates to the place, he ran toward and beat up some sentries.
It's 6:00 A.M. now, and the alliance all woke up.
"It's the 20th day of the Zero Point's destruction, and we're coming to Reality-2147483647!" David announced.
Beyond the Edge flew slowly towards, entering the portal, which is just large enough for the island-ship to safely bypass. The time really has come.
To be continued...
