Still inside his hideout, All For One could see everything that was happening in Hosu. And among his screens, he spotted Luffy fighting Stain and defeating him.

"Mugiwara... you sneaked up on me."

But then the man was startled, seeing Darkness.

" Who is she ? "

Seeming concerned, All For One thinks for a few moments, before ordering.

"I want all Nomus to go downtown."

"Endeavor! Endeavor, answer!"

Jumping from roof to roof, All Might moved at full speed through Hosu. Having been warned of the situation, an hour ago, the hero number 1 had not hesitated for a moment to join the fight. Nevertheless, knowing that other heroes were already there, at the time of the panic, they tried to contact them to obtain information on the situation.

However, many didn't answer him.

"Endeavor! Damn it!" Roared All Might, hastening to contact another hero. "Mirko! Do you hear me?"

Again, there was no response.

"Edgeshot? Do you listen me?"

Always nothing.

"Is this a joke? Hawks, are you there?

Finally, he received an answer.

"All Might...I don't have time to talk to you." Hero number 3 affirmed. "I'm in the middle of a fight."

" Where are you ? "

"At the southern ring road of the city! I'm with Jeanist! We're trying to fight Mugiwara's group."

"Miugiwara? He's here? What does that mean? He's the one responsible for what's going on?"

"I doubt it! But it seems his whole gang came here! I wanted to order several of his friends to leave Hosu, but they refused."

An explosion was heard.

"They're super strong." Hawks confessed. "Winning against them is going to be complicated."

" I go. " Said All Might.

"No." Hawks retorted. "Go downtown and try to find who's responsible for this monster invasion! We'll deal with Mugiwara and his minions next."

Listening to him, while looking hesitant, the blond nodded, before affirming.

"I'll do it quickly."

However, as soon as the message stopped, All Might winced in pain. Stopping, he let his hero body disappear to be replaced by his skeletal appearance.

"Damn it! Since my fight against this nomu, the time during which I can maintain my heroic form has decreased even further! How could I continue to maintain my hero status under these conditions?"

Suddenly, an explosion was heard.

"Huh?" All Might wondered, looking in one direction.

It was then that he spotted Darkness on the roof of a building, while holding Galadriel by the throat. "

"Miss Nazarick?"

Then, he saw Luffy and the others.

"Midoriya-kun? Mugiwara?"

Not being the only one present here, All Might didn't see Sebas, who was also watching the scene, while having his hands behind his back. Knowing full well Galadriel's plan, he decided to stay still, despite reacting to save her at any moment.

Even though he thought it was impossible for Galadriel to be wrong, he was afraid that underestimating Luffy's power was a bad idea.

Suddenly, capturing other presences, he turned his gaze to a new duo, which had just appeared.

Having decided to split Blue Roses into two teams, Lakyus was supposed to be in the company of Evileye and Brain. However, during their fight against the Nomus, the two women had quickly noticed that the man had gone to his side, not wanting to fight alongside them.

Wanting to find them, it was by chance that the duo had finally seen Darkness and the others.

"A demon?" Lakyus wondered.

"Is she controlling those monsters?" Lakyus asked.

" GEAR SECOND ! "

Barely understanding what was going on, Lakyus and Evileye saw Luffy disappear, before coming face to face with Darkness.

"How?" They were surprised, far from suspecting that this was only the beginning.

" JET PISTOL ! "

A loud impact noise was heard as Luffy's fist targeted Darkness' face. Yet still smiling, the demon glared at Luffy, as she crossed her arms in front of her face to shield herself from the attack.

"Mugiwara…I was making a very interesting proposition to you! You could at least listen to it through before you interrupt me."

"Go to hell." Luffy roared, preparing to kick her. " GUM GUM ..."

Simply pointing the palm of her hand in front of him, Darkness activated her magic, and immediately Luffy felt his body go still again.

" What ? "

"Seriously, do you really think you can beat me with that little power?"

Then, Darkness' knee slammed hard into Luffy's stomach, knocking him high into the sky. Spreading then her wings, Darkness hastened to follow him. Yet, quickly opening his eyes to see her moving towards him, Luffy hurriedly covered his arms with Busoshoku haki, before swinging them at full speed.

" JET GATLING ! "

Seeing a hundred punches swoop down on her, Darkness grinned longer as she accelerated, before slaloming between fists. Zigzagging, spinning or changing speed... Darkness enjoyed using several strategies to avoid Luffy's attacks, while closing in on him.

"Mugiwara...you are indeed level 80! That's very powerful for a human! But if you're not capable of more, it's obvious that only Roronoa will be a real threat to me."

Continuing to target his enemy, Luffy suddenly stopped, seeing Darkness appear right in front of him.

" BLACK FIRE !" She cried, pointing a finger at his face.

Immediately, Luffy's eyes widened as a small black flame appeared on the demon's fingertip, before moving towards him. And as soon as she touched it, the small flame turned into an intense inferno, which caused Luffy's body to disappear behind its flames.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" the pirate shouted.

Not having finished with him, Darkness teleported above him, before directing both hands towards him.

" GOD'S FALL !"

Immediately, feeling a massive shock wave target him, Luffy coughed up blood, before feeling his body crash into the ground below.

Dumbfounded, Midoriya saw Luffy being ejected into the sky, charred by a black inferno, and smashed to the ground, in mere seconds.

" Luffy-san ? "

"Who…Who is this woman?" Ida wanted to know. "If she can defeat Mugiwara that easily...then that means her power is on another level."

Landing not far from where Luffy had crashed, Darkness kept her smirk, while her arms were crossed. In fact, she was happy with the situation. Initially, she was afraid that Luffy might recognize her. That was why she had put many magic rings around her fingers.

These items had the ability to make her magic and aura disappear from anyone's sight. As for Pandora, copying Galadriel's magic and aura perfectly, he could trick Luffy's haki without any worries.

"Seriously, Mugiwara? Don't tell me that's all you can do? I'd be very disappointed."

Suddenly stones began to move. Then, they were ejected to the side. standing up again, Luffy had his clothes which were now torn or burned. His skin also had burn marks, while a trickle of blood ran from his forehead. Still, looking far from frightened, he stared at Darkness, affirming.

"I have no reason to be afraid of you."

"Oh? And why?" Asked the demoness.

"Because I know I can defeat you."

For a moment, Darkness' smile disappeared, while Galadriel couldn't help but be slightly offended by this remark. However, hastening to hide her annoyance, the Empress began to giggle.

"Geez, human stupidity will never cease to amaze me! Mugiwara, don't you understand who I am?"

Spreading her wings, and showing her horns, she affirmed.

"I am superior to humans! I am the empress of evil! I am the ruler of the demon realm! I am..."

" Shut up ! "

Startled, Darkness stared at Luffy, who walked towards her.

"I'm not here to listen to you."

Thinking back to Galadriel's bloodied face, he affirmed.

"I don't care who you are! All I care about is making sure I kick your ass."

Seeing him speak with a surprisingly persuasive voice, Darkness couldn't help but tilt her head to the side. Then, finally, deciding to imitate Luffy, she walked in his direction.

"Mugiwara...why are you mad at me?"

"Because you hurt one of my friends."

"And for that, you would be ready to die?"

"There's no reason why I should worry about dying." Luffy retorted. "When I have defeated you, I will find my companions and we will all return to UA together, in order to continue to think of a way to return home."

"Mugiwara...you are both a very funny and very annoying human."

Continuing to walk towards each other, Luffy and Galadriel quickly closed the distance between them. Ten yards...five yards...two yards...one yard.

Finally, when a step separated them, the two adversaries stopped and only stared at each other. Seeing this, Gran Torino suddenly had a bad feeling.

"DEKU! RUN!" He yelled, grabbing Ida and the fake Galadriel.

"What?" the child wondered, seeing the former hero rush to the roof of a building.

at that moment, all the remaining nomu appeared. Those with the ability to fly dropped down towards Darkness and Luffy, while those without wings rushed towards them ejecting everything in their path.

Thus, dozens and dozens of Nomus quickly surrounded the pair, aiming their claws and teeth at them. And yet, Darkness and Luffy just kept staring at each other.

"Luffy-san is going to get killed." Midoriya worried, as the monsters were about to kill them.

About to say something, Gran Torino suddenly felt a strange murderous draft.

" What ? "

" DESPAIR AURA V / HAOSHOKU HAKI ! "

In an instant, Deku and Ida...Gran Torina...Sebas...Pandora...Lakyus and Evileye...All Might...All For One...all these people saw two auras appear around Luffy and Darkness, before colliding. No one understood what this created. Black flashes? Cracks in the air? Multicolored shock waves?

Anyway, one thing was certain. As soon as these auras appeared, all of the Nomus behind Luffy instantly collapsed to the ground, unconscious, while those behind Darkness died without realizing it.

A real clash took place between Darkness and Luffy who continued to stare at each other, while increasing the power of their auras. Again, their auras became more imposing and gusts of wind appeared. They were so powerful that they lifted the bodies of the Nomu, just like debris.

Spinning above the duo, the debris and bodies of the Nomus eventually flew to the sides, while the windows of nearby buildings began to shatter. Then, cracks appeared on their facades.

Feeling one of his gusts of wind coming their way, Deku immediately felt his whole body shake, and fell to his knees without realizing it. Also touched by this mysterious wind, Native had the impression of being touched by a shock wave, while he lost consciousness before collapsing on the ground. Then it was Ida's turn.

Still able to stand, Gran Torino felt his cloak move strongly behind him, as beads of sweat appeared on his face. Staring at the two fighters, they had the impression of seeing their auras transform into real demons. It had been years since he had felt such fear.

Not far from them, having seen debris being thrown in their direction, Evileye had quickly created a shield in front of her and Lakyus. But even though this defense protected them from the debris, it was ineffective against Luffy and Darkness' auras, which seemed to extend all the way to them.

"Who…Who are these people?" Lakyus wanted to know.

Remaining silent, Evileye only stared at the two fighters below, who continued to create black flashes around them. Having lived the equivalent of five centuries, Evileye had seen a lot. But there were only a handful of people who had inherited such powers.

"They are... gods."

Also feeling the auras hitting him, as he stood behind Luffy, Sebas felt the hairs of his beard move, while he remained stoic. However, finally moving his gaze, he looked at one of his hands and saw that it was shaking. Without knowing why, for the first time in years, Sebas was afraid of another person, who was not a supreme being of Nazarick.

And it was at that moment, that he understood the danger that Luffy represented.

"Mugiwara...who are you?"

Eventually, Luffy and Darkness' auras disappeared as quickly as they had appeared. Still above them, some of the Nomu corpses and debris eventually fell to the ground, all around the two fighters, who still remained motionless.

But while Luffy put on a serious face, Darkness seemed unable to erase her smile. Galadriel was happy. For a moment, she had been afraid that her source of amusement was nothing but disappointment. But in the end, Luffy had just surpassed her expectations.

"Mugiwara...I've been waiting to meet someone like you for so long."

Creating a magic circle on the side, she made her arm disappear into it, before pulling out a long magic sword.

"Today we are going to fight and I fear there will be only one survivor."

"I'll do whatever it takes to defeat you." Luffy retorted.

But before he could do anything, a figure appeared in front of him and gave him a mighty punch. Startled, he let out a cry before being ejected several quarters further. As surprised as he was, Galadriel saw the silhouette of a butler, who immediately rushed to where Luffy had been ejected.

" Sebas ? "

"Excuse me, Galadriel-sama." The butler said. "But he is dangerous."

Still running, Sebas made a telepathic message.

Running through the streets of Hosu, Zoro sliced through all the Nomus he encountered. Yet, having quickly lost his excitement, he groaned.

"Killing these monsters is no fun at all."

Suddenly, hearing battle sounds, he saw a muscular Nomu fighting against a blue-haired swordsman. Seeming to experience some difficulty, Brain dodged the monster's hands, which tried to grab his skull, in order to crush it between his fingers.

Moving to the side, Brain then slashed at the monster's left flank. Yet, being far from weakened, the Nomu again reached his arm towards him and managed to grab hold of his head.

"What?" Brain wondered.

Roaring, the Nomu was about to crush his head. However, to his surprise, it was his that left his shoulders, before falling to the ground. Stunned, Brain saw the rest of the body of the world crumble to the ground, while another swordsman faced him.

"If you're having trouble killing those weak monsters, you better stay home."

"What…? What did you say?"

Seizing his sword, he questioned her.

"Who are you? Do you want to fight me?"

Staring at him for a few seconds, Zoro ends up shrugging his shoulders, before leaving.

"Hey, where are you going?" Asked Brain.

" I don't have time to waste with someone like you; " Zoro affirmed. "You don't interest me."

Feeling insulted, Brain immediately got into a fighting stance.

"You! I will..."

Suddenly, he stopped, hearing strange noises coming from the city center. Then, Brain felt gusts of wind coming towards him, making him tremble.

" What is ... ? "

"Luffy!" Zoro noted, getting ready to go in the direction everything was coming from his gusts of wind.

Nevertheless, he was immediately stopped. Indeed, appeared out of nowhere, a wall of ice stood in front of the swordsman, to prevent him from going to join his captain. Surprised at first, Zoro ends up smiling, before turning around.

"So we see each other again."

Startled, Brain also turned and saw a strange frozen mist advancing towards them. And within that mist was the imposing figure of Cocytus.

"Roronoa...I came to fight you."

This time, excitement flashed across Zoro's face as he grabbed his swords.

Nazarick, 7 th floor

Being seated on a chair, Demiurge was in front of a transparent crystal and seemed to be waiting. It had already been three hours since his army had been sent to North Korea, and he was awaiting reports from his generals.

So far, he hadn't had anything interesting. The only reports he had received spoke only of completely deserted military camps. because of this, his generals had decided to attack the cities of the country. But since then, Demiurge had had no news.

Tapping his finger on a table, the demon looked displeased. Normally, he should have received new reports a long time ago.

"What's going on? How come we don't have any trace of the enemy?"

Feeling his eyes turn to crystal, due to anger, Demiurge suddenly ends up taking a deep breath, in order to calm himself down.

"Calm down, Demiurge! What would Albert-sama say if he saw you like this?"

Trying to collect his thoughts, Demiurge attempted to understand the situation in Korea.

"A few weeks ago, Galadriel-sama had ordered a missile launch, to make it appear that the country wanted to attack the other world powers! Normally, Galadriel-sama's plan was for South Korea to North becomes a terrorist country, which would allow Nazarick to attack it, in order to be seen as a group of heroes, in the eyes of the rest of the world."

Thinking back to the country's reaction, he said.

"What was not foreseen in his plan was the strange silence of the country, which did not even try to defend itself and deny the accusations of attempted mass murder! Why? There are less two months, I visited this country and it was obvious that its leader wanted to put forward military force! To be accused like this would be an insult! So why did its leader not react! What happened in two months so that...?"

Suddenly freezing, Demiurge thought back to a major event, which had happened a month ago: the appearance of Luffy and his allies.

" Don't tell me ... "

Rising, Demiurge prepared to contact his generals to share his thoughts. However, before he could do so, Demiurge received a telepathic message.

"Demiurge, do you hear me?"

"Sebas?" The demon wondered, though this must have been the first time the butler had contacted him that way. " Now is not the good moment! I don't have time to..."

"Demiurge, we underestimated Mugiwara's power." Sebas suddenly stopped him. "If it's the same with his allies, then Galadriel-sama might be in danger! Come here quickly."

Then the message stopped. For a second, the demon froze. Then, suddenly, he hastened out of the room where he was. Demiurge knew that Sebas didn't like him, just like him. The two men hated each other and argued more often than they normally discussed.

And that was why Demiurge understood Sebas' seriousness. The butler would never have contacted him, unless some great danger threatened Galadriel's life.

"ALBEDO!" He cried, starting a new telepathic message. "Meet me at the treasury! It's an emergency."

But as Demiurge left the 7th floor, he didn't see his crystal start to glow, while one of his generals tried to contact him.

North Korea

Running at top speed, Evil Greed held a crystal in his hand as he attempted to contact Demiurge.

"Demiurge-sama! Demiurge-sama! Answer! I beg you."

However, he got no response.

"Why isn't he answering?" the demon general wanted to know.

Running beside him, Envy's face showed only fear, as she looked behind her.

"Damn it! What happened? Did we attack the wrong country or what?"

"Keep running." Greed ordered her. "We need to get out of here and find a way to warn Galadriel-sama! This place...it's not as harmless as we thought."

Suddenly, lightning fell from the sky, and struck the ground between the two Evil Lords. Screaming in fear, they hastened to accelerate, before spreading their wings. Flying like this, they found themselves below a sky, which began to disappear behind huge black clouds, charged with lightning.

Several times, lightning fell towards them and nearly struck them down.

" Damn it ! Damn it ! Damn it ! " Shouted Greed.

Looking over his shoulder, Envy then saw two huge figures visible through the clouds, as they appeared to pursue them.

" They are there !" She cried. " WE ARE GONNA DIE !"

Ordinarily, the Evil Lords were designed to know no fear. And yet, it was almost, feeling their whole body tremble that the two demons tried to accelerate, in order to manage to sow their pursuer. In vain.

Targeting Envy, one of the two figures seemed to control the lightning, which headed towards the Evil Lord. Unable to react in time, Envy suddenly spewed black smoke out of her mouth, as lightning shot through her body, blasting her in an instant.

Seeing her crumble to the ground, Greed continued to run. Unfortunately, very quickly, he saw a light appear through the clouds, just in front of the second figure. Then, it was a real laser beam that went towards him.

" GALADRIEL-SAMA !"

The next moment, the attack slammed into him, causing a huge explosion. Having already hit the ground, Envy's charred body was soon joined by Greed's. Seeing them like this, the two figures couldn't help but laugh loudly and sinisterly.

" MAMAMAMA ! "

"WORORORORO! "
