Chapter 2 - The Emergence of the Golden List

Real World

At this moment, Boros, who was sitting inside a spaceship preparing to launch a deadly attack on the earth below, was also shocked by the scene before him.

He was suddenly pulled by a spatial wave, and then saw this golden ranking board covering the sky.

"This is truly interesting! So what that fortune teller said was true, my opponent is here!"

His single eye shone with bloodthirsty light.

"Even though I don't know what you are, but to dare invade my mental world without hesitation, you must not be something simple!"

Boros suddenly rose from his throne, and his entire body turned into a shadow, directly leaving the spaceship.

On the land that had now expanded more than tenfold, it was clearly visible.

A beam of light shot through the sky, heading directly toward the Golden List.

However, at that instant, the Golden List directly fired a beam of golden light that enveloped Boros.

Boros was immediately bound, and then his entire body was crushed and destroyed by an extraordinary force.

He didn't even have time to make a sound.

His entire body was obliterated into ash by that golden pillar of light.

There was an uproar in the livestream space.

People who had wanted to try immediately abandoned their intentions.

The previous man had an extremely strong aura, but he was reduced to ash by this mysterious ranking board in an instant.

Now, no one dared to be a guinea pig.

[Red-Haired Shanks: "Who was that man just now? Such a strong aura couldn't even last one second!"]

[Orochimaru: "Very strange power, different from ninjutsu. It seems to have transcended this world. If I could control it... Kekekekeke!"]

[Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hehe, Orochimaru, you can try! Maybe there's a chance!"]

[Orochimaru: "Sensei, how cruel of you! Am I stupid enough to commit suicide?"]

[Genos: "Amazing! If I could have power like that, there would be no more monsters in this world!"]

[Saitama: "Oh ho ho ho, I wonder if this thing can withstand one of my punches? I really want to try it. Ah, my instant ramen is about to be done!"]

At this moment, the strongest fighters throughout the world were watching the mysterious Golden List in the sky.

The fusion of the three worlds had also caused massive changes in the real world.

More than 80% of the Pirate World was ocean, which began spreading to the Naruto World and One Punch Man World.

The Sea Kings within were also swept along.

However, these were three worlds with vast territories and complex terrain, so the spread of seawater was eventually blocked and the territory stabilized.

Ninja traces appeared in the Pirate World, and pirate figures appeared in the Naruto World...

The world system began to become chaotic.

In the livestream space.

[Smoker: "Marine Headquarters was visited by strange people. There's a giant frog as tall as three stories, and damn it, it can talk!"]

[Admiral Aokiji: "Smoker, can't you handle such a small problem? What's strange about a talking frog? Don't disturb my rest time."]

[Orochimaru: "Oh? A talking frog. Can you hand it over to me for research? It seems like a good topic."]

[Vegapunk: "Sir appears to be a fellow scientist. I'm also involved in some life sciences fields. Are you interested in a deeper discussion?"]

[Sarutobi Hiruzen: "I have a bad feeling!"]

[Kakashi: "Hokage-sama, a large amount of seawater is flooding the western part of Konoha Village. Fortunately it was blocked by the forest, but there are many sea creatures emerging from it. They're very large and difficult to deal with. There are also some people with special abilities, riding large ships."]

[Might Guy: "Kakashi, just leave this problem to me! This is the springtime of youth!"]

Time passed bit by bit, and one hour quickly elapsed.

In the sky, the Golden List suddenly emitted bright light.

Line by line of text gradually appeared on it.

"LIST OF THREE REALMS' MASTERS"

"Ranked from low to high, one hundred places total."

[Rank 100: Tatsumaki]

[World of Origin: One Punch Man]

[Description: Tatsumaki, with the title: Tornado of Terror, Second-Ranked S-Class Hero in the Hero Association]

[Ability: Psychokinesis (Telekinesis)]

[Power Value: 6543]

[List Reward: Sleipnir (A weapon that highly accommodates spiritual energy, versatile, extremely sharp, can cut enemies from thousands of li away [approximately 500 km])]

At the same time, next to the Golden List ranking, appeared a photo of Tatsumaki, a small girl with green curly hair, looking rather cute.

This was a fusion of three worlds, with only the top hundred filtered out. Even though she was in last place, her strength could be imagined.

There were exclamations in the livestream space.

[Shirohige: "Gurara, cute little girl. I wonder if she'd like to be my child!"]

[Gol D. Roger: "Look carefully, she's female, how can she be your son!"]

[Shirohige: "Same thing, a daughter is fine too! Wurahaha!"]

[Senju Hashirama: "What is psychokinesis? Is it some kind of new Kekkei Genkai? Sounds amazing! Is this Sleipnir what they call a ranking board reward? Sounds very powerful."]

[Sarutobi Hiruzen: "Hashirama-sama, you're still alive!"]

[Senju Tobirama: "We've long been dead. We don't know why our consciousness was forcibly connected here. Perhaps there really are Gods in the world?"]

At the same time, a beam of golden light was suddenly fired from the Golden List, rapidly falling to somewhere on earth.

Some of the strongest fighters, with extraordinary visual abilities, could barely see it.

It was a golden egg-shell shaped light cluster emitting dazzling light, seemingly carrying something inside.

"This reward is mine!"

Suddenly, a figure shot into the sky, even heading directly for the golden light, wanting to seize the reward before it fell.

But as soon as their hand touched the golden light...

*BUZZ!*

The Golden List's light shone brightly, and an invisible force directly pressed down on that figure.

*BANG!*

The figure was immediately blasted away and fell back to their original location.

At the same time, everyone in the livestream space received a message of will from the Golden List in their minds.

"Imu from the Pirate World attempted to seize another's reward. Considering this is the first offense, ninety percent of their life energy is stripped, their ranking on the List, and their reward is deleted. If there is a next time, she will be obliterated to dust!"

This willpower shook hearts and made everyone feel an unbearable emotion.

Too terrifying!

That was the thought of all the strongest fighters.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Meanwhile in the Pirate World, World Government Headquarters.

Mary Goise, the Holy Land.

The once beautiful garden was now completely destroyed and in disarray.

Imu lay in a large hole, blood continuously flowing from her mouth.

"Lord Imu!"

Several figures rushed over. They were the Gorosei, the supreme rulers of the World Government.

They were also extremely shocked at this moment.

Although Imu hid very well, her strength was so great that even the Gorosei together didn't dare oppose her.

But now she were beaten to serious injury by one move from that mysterious Golden List.

"What exactly is that..." Imu's eyes were vacant, still somewhat disbelieving.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

In an apartment in a skyscraper.

A small girl with green curly hair sensed something, and suddenly raised her head to look out the window.

She saw golden light penetrate the wall soundlessly and enter the room, and she immediately reached for it.

The golden light cluster disappeared, revealing a strange silver-white weapon.

"There really is a reward!"

Tatsumaki's eyes blinked, and suddenly the method of using this Sleipnir appeared in her mind.

With the addition of psychokinesis, this silver-white Sleipnir suddenly spun, cutting through space like a crescent moon, continuously emitting rapid whistling sounds penetrating the air.

"Go!"

Tatsumaki pointed her hand.

Sleipnir shot out, and the thick metal wall was directly cut soundlessly.

Tatsumaki laughed with a voice clear as bells.

She stepped on Sleipnir and rushed out of the room. Hundreds of crescents flew around her, and her entire being seemed shrouded in silver moonlight.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

Discussion heated up in the livestream space, and rankings continued rapidly, soon reaching Rank 99.

[Rank 99: Kaguya Kimimaro]

[World of Origin: Naruto World]

[Ability: Kekkei Genkai Shikotsumyaku]

[Description: The strongest person among the Five Sound Ninja under Orochimaru]

[Power Value: 8635]

[List Reward: Adamantium Blood Serum (can replace all bones in the body with Adamantium. After this, will possess the following characteristics: super bone hardness, super regeneration, aging delay)]

In a dim room, candles burned, slowly consuming themselves.

Kimimaro sat on the floor, silently watching the burning candle.

This candle symbolized the countdown of his life.

When that candle finished burning, his life would end.

"My life will soon end. There's not much I can do for Orochimaru-sama. What use is this ranking to me..."

Kimimaro smiled sadly.

At that moment, a beam of golden light penetrated the roof and landed right in his hand.

"This... there really is a reward!"

Kimimaro's eyes showed surprise, and at the same time he knew how to use this reward.

The golden light shattered, and in his hand appeared a large syringe containing thick silver liquid.

He injected the syringe into his body without hesitation, and the silver liquid quickly flowed in.

"Aah—"

Kimimaro fell to the floor, screaming in pain. The veins on his forehead bulged. Although he had long been tortured by disease, he couldn't endure it at this moment.

All the bones in his body swelled and deformed, his skin cracked, and gray bones kept emerging, the scene appearing bloody and cruel.

After a while, Kimimaro gasped and stood up from the floor.

He was covered in blood, but a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

He was reborn. He was not only freed from disease and wouldn't die, but he also gained greater power.

"This Adamantium is very compatible with my Kekkei Genkai. As if it were made specifically for me."

Kimimaro lowered his head and reached for the back of his neck.

He actually pulled out his entire spine from the back of his neck.

However, the difference was this spine was silver-white, emitting a terrifying metallic sheen.

"Orochimaru-sama, I can follow you again!"

Kimimaro smiled.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

The rankings on the Golden List proceeded quickly, and soon reached Rank 50.

[Rank 50: Enel]

[World of Origin: Pirate World]

[Ability: Goro Goro no Mi (Rumble-Rumble Fruit) User, Mantra (Kenbunshoku Haki)]

[Description: Ruler of Skypiea, cruel in nature, calls himself God]

[Power Value: 176352]

[List Reward: Thor's Hammer (Mjolnir) (An artifact that inherently compresses lightning power. If the user has lightning attributes, the effect is doubled. At the same time, this weapon can be used to assist flight)]

In the sky, appeared the figure of a tall man with a white turban, holding a long golden staff, and bare-chested. He looked somewhat lazy, but blue-white lightning arcs danced across his body.

He looked like a living Thunder God, emanating majesty.

[Fleet Admiral Sengoku: "So there's someone like this on Skypiea. A Goro Goro no Mi user, once again a Logia-type user. If he could join the Navy, he would be a terrifying figure to pirates. Unfortunately, his nature is bad and useless."]

[Raikage A: "A boy who looks strong. Ruler of Skypiea? Never heard of it. But he has the ninja style of the Land of Thunder. If he were born in the Land of Thunder, he'd have the qualifications to be the next generation Raikage!"]

[Blast: "Although I've always been hiding, I thought my strength was pretty good. I didn't expect there are still many people in the world stronger than me!"]
