Chapter 255 Even God couldn't help me, I'm telling you!
The earth was stomped into a huge crater by this foot, and black dust mixed with gravel formed a mushroom cloud tens of meters high, soaring into the sky.
Those ostentatious stone lanterns, monuments, and pilgrimage routes, along with the countless sins buried beneath them, were all utterly crushed and ground to dust by this one foot!
Everyone present, whether protesters, worshippers, security personnel, or journalists, was thrown into the air by the terrifying shockwave and left dazed and disoriented.
They struggled to their feet, their faces covered in dust, and looked up at the sky.
There, the 100-meter demon slowly raised his right foot and stood still again.
Where the Yasukuni Shrine used to be, now billowing black smoke and the stench of burning mixed with the smell of earth permeate the air.
All the buildings that once existed, along with their symbolic meanings, have vanished without a trace, as if they had never existed.
Beneath the massive black crystal mask, the purple-gold flame eyes slowly closed.
Chen You muttered to himself.
"I'm sorry I'm late."
He felt a sense of relief, yet also a sense of heaviness.
Countless heroic souls wander in foreign lands, and countless injustices remain unaddressed.
Today, with this step, it begins.
The reckoning will never be absent.
……
Inside the command center, the giant image on the screen gradually became clearer.
The sacred toilet in Yasukuni was reduced to dust under the giant foot of the monarch.
Li Guoan took a deep breath, a glimmer of light appearing in his eyes.
"History will ultimately deliver justice." Zhang Yunhai clenched his fists, unable to hide his excitement.
The emotional researchers and assistants, witnessing this scene, covered their faces and wept.
……
In the country of Japan, Prime Minister Watanabe Suke was thrown several meters and fell into a pile of ruins, covered in dust and bleeding from his head.
He scrambled to his feet, staring at the colossal, sky-covering demon, his eyes filled with the utmost fear and despair.
"You devil...you're a devil!"
He let out a hysterical scream, his voice hoarse.
"devil?"
Chen You opened his eyes again and looked down at the mess.
The evil deeds committed by the state must be punished!
He silently chanted in his heart, "Harvesting of fortune!"
His purple-gold eyes swept across the sky, focusing on the sky above the hot capital of Heguo.
In his view, the entire city, and even further afield, was shrouded in a hazy white mist.
The mist was not a physical substance, but rather a complex network of countless fine white threads.
They flow, intertwine, and eventually converge towards the core of the land of Heguo.
That is vitality, that is faith, that is the essence of civilization.
This is the destiny of a nation.
Chen You did not hesitate.
The pitch-black demon god raised one hand, palm facing upwards.
There were no spells, no flashy light effects.
It was just that huge hand gently clenching in the air.
In an instant, an invisible force erupted from the demon god's palm, sweeping across the land like a hurricane.
The invisible white threads in the air began to tremble violently, like willow catkins blown by a gale, and surged wildly toward the palm of the demon god.
Their speed increased, converging into torrents of white water, rushing to plunge into the demon god's palm.
The crowd below looked up at the sky in extreme fear.
They couldn't see the white threads; they only saw the hundred-meter-tall demon god slowly raising a hand after destroying the Yasukuni Shrine.
The hand was clenched in mid-air, as if trying to grasp the entire sky in its hand.
With his other hand, he gripped the enormous, jet-black greatsword, its tip pointing towards the earth.
Just then.
In the sky, the leaden gray clouds that were originally covered with dark clouds were suddenly torn apart by a dazzling golden light.
A figure, not particularly large, slowly emerged from the crack.
He was enveloped in a sacred golden light, his face blurred, yet one could sense an indescribable majesty and arrogance emanating from him.
He wore a wide white robe embroidered with ancient Heguo totems, and held a folding fan in his hand. With a gentle wave, the sound of wind and thunder could be heard.
His appearance instantly provided a pillar of faith for the Japanese people who were living in fear and despair.
"It's Amaterasu!"
"Our God has clearly saved us!"
"My God, please punish this demon!"
Watanabe, trembling, struggled to his knees from the ruins, raised his hands, and shouted hoarsely.
"Welcome the arrival of the Heavenly God! May Your Majesty protect the people of our nation and vanquish the heretics!"
The figure of the celestial being slowly descended above the thunderclouds, facing Chen You's kingly avatar from afar.
His gaze first swept contemptuously over the kneeling mortals below, then lingered on the hundred-meter-tall demon god.
"Mortal, you have overstepped your bounds."
The god spoke, his voice booming, yet carrying a cold and distant indifference, as if speaking to an ant.
"To steal the destiny of a nation without authorization is a crime that cannot be tolerated by Heaven."
Chen You frowned slightly but did not respond.
White threads continued to gather in his palm.
Seeing that Chen You remained silent, the celestial being gently waved his folding fan, which shimmered with golden light.
"You demon, it's bad enough that you invade the mortal realm, but you dare to meddle in the destiny of our nation."
"Do you think you can contend with gods with just an avatar?" His tone was even more disdainful.
"Stop now, or you will face divine retribution, your soul will be scattered, and it will be too late for regrets."
Chen You finally made a move.
There was no fear in his purple-gold eyes, only a profound understanding that saw through everything.
"Heaven will not tolerate this?" Chen You's voice, transmitted through the avatar of the monarch, echoed like muffled thunder in the sky above the capital, making everyone's eardrums ache.
"The evils committed by the Kingdom of He in those years are too numerous to count; why did Heaven not tolerate them?"
His voice pierced through the clouds and reached the hearts of the people. Every word was like a heavy hammer, striking at the sins that were deliberately concealed deep within the hearts of the Chinese people.
"Did you see the 300,000 souls who perished in Nanjing? Did you hear the curse of Unit 731? Did you feel the blood and tears of the comfort women?"
A hint of displeasure appeared on the face of the God of the Kingdom, and he abruptly closed his folding fan with a crisp sound.
His body shone with golden light, attempting to dispel the "karmic obstacles of mortals" attached to Chen You's words.
"We only govern the workings of Heaven and are not involved in the karma of mortals," the Heavenly God of Heguo said coldly, his tone carrying an extreme disregard for the emotions of mortals.
"Your words are nothing but the resentment of mortals, defiling the divine body!"
"Not involved in the karma of mortals?!" Chen You's voice suddenly rose, like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
"Ha!" he laughed, a laugh filled with sarcasm and disdain.
"Since you're supposed to be above worldly affairs, why are you interfering with my blood-for-blood approach?"
"Since you are not involved in worldly affairs, why do you shelter these wicked people?"
"They say they won't interfere, but their reach is longer than anyone else's."
Chen You raised his other hand, and gripped the hundred-meter-long giant sword in his other hand, with lightning and shadow power dancing on the blade.
"A mere war between mortals?" Chen You's purple-gold eyes locked onto the Heavenly God of He Kingdom. "This is a reckoning of civilization, a judgment that Heaven deserves!"
He no longer concealed his intention to seize the fortune.
His left hand still held the fortune of the Kingdom of He, while his right hand held a sword, the blade pointing at the Heavenly God of He. His aura was fierce, and his killing intent was overwhelming.
"Today, the fate of the nation is sealed! I say it!"
"Even if they are gods, come and fight!"
