The six giants had no objections whatsoever—their hearts had already been completely won over by Zeus's power and generosity.
They shouted in unison, their voices deafening: "Respected Zeus, your will is our will! We await your summons at any time, ready to fight for you!"
Zeus nodded with satisfaction, then explained the specific battle plan to them in detail. After arranging everything properly, he bid farewell to Lady Night.
The contact between the two gods already carried undisguisable intimacy. Soft-hearted Lady Nyx's expression was full of reluctant parting, the reluctance in her eyes almost impossible to hide.
Zeus led Hades and Poseidon back to the world.
Silent Hades remained as taciturn as ever.
But the usually active Poseidon had now become equally silent.
His originally arrogant face was now written with dejection and undisguisable defeat.
Previously, Zeus was very strong—he acknowledged this fact, but he didn't think he couldn't catch up.
But now, facing Zeus who possessed Great Thunder, facing that Zeus who could cleave chaos, ravage void, and casually create worlds—
He truly didn't know how he could possibly catch up to such a Zeus.
Zeus's power had exceeded the scope of what he could understand. He completely couldn't comprehend why it was so strong!
Thunder and lightning in the Cyclops's hands definitely weren't this powerful—even though he hadn't seen it, he was absolutely certain of this point!
If the three of them were this strong, then the God King wouldn't be Kronos—it would be the three Cyclops.
That scene of Zeus laughing while dominating everything—he didn't even dare think about it. Just thinking about it made his divine nature tremble with fear.
Greatly shocked, he couldn't even manage to be stubborn now.
As for the six giants watching the gods depart, their massive forms huddled together, staying together in wordless silence for a long time.
After a long while, Brontes said in muffled tones: "Sacred son of Rhea will surely achieve final victory—this is without doubt."
"The power he displayed has already surpassed the limits Kronos could reach. No! It has surpassed limits that all gods cannot imagine!"
Brontes's eyes were full of fear: "If he wished, he could completely destroy everything and recreate everything anew."
The other giants nodded heavily without hesitation. Having seen thunder Zeus, they didn't doubt this truth in the slightest.
Brontes continued: "The future cosmic order will after all be Zeus's order—it wouldn't be good to offend his brothers."
"Those who saved us include not only great Zeus but also his brothers. So merely thanking great Zeus isn't appropriate or fair. For our long-term future development, we must also thank his two brothers."
"Let us prepare another thank-you gift for them together."
The giants all understood Brontes's meaning and expressed agreement.
Anyway, they needed to await Zeus's summons. Being idle in darkness was still being idle—better to prepare a gift. Many gifts don't burden gods.
That son of Rhea called Poseidon clearly had an arrogant and difficult personality. If they ignored him, it would definitely create unnecessary trouble in the future.
Not to mention the giants who, having suffered endless torment in Tartarus, were extremely versed in worldly wisdom.
On Olympus's side, during Zeus's absence, all remained peaceful.
This was also within Zeus's expectations.
Under Zeus's deliberately designed war rhythm, both sides were now like turn-based combat—after one side actively attacked, the other would counterattack, then wait for the opponent's next counterattack.
Zeus had specifically chosen his departure time for just after Kronos had attacked Mount Olympus and just withdrawn.
Otherwise, if they had just left and Kronos attacked, that would have been disastrous.
Fortunately, Kronos hadn't suddenly decided to actively attack again, but instead waited in battle formation for the Olympian gods' assault, preparing for a defensive battle.
After Zeus returned, he first secretly told Mother Goddess Rhea and Hestia and the others about what had happened, then immediately summoned all the gods to prepare for the decisive battle!
All secret matters were prone to complications with delay.
The more critical the moment, to avoid unexpected complications, one must act decisively and resolve quickly!
He hadn't even told Gaia that the giants had been released.
Zeus was very clear that failure's original sin was always arrogance. Even though he could now easily defeat Kronos, he must resolve him instantly!
Not just God King Kronos, but also the other three Primordial Titans—they must also be defeated in an instant!
He absolutely couldn't allow even a trace of arrogance to give them the chance for their divine nature to return to the laws!
If he truly failed, that would require far too much effort!
Zeus didn't reveal the plan's full scope to the gods. Besides Rhea, Hestia and the others, plus the few core deities who participated in the planning and knew this was the prelude to the decisive battle, the other gods still thought this attack was like usual—just an ordinary battle.
Many things in this world that would determine the future, that would be remembered by countless people in the future, were just ordinary days when they actually occurred.
Accompanied by another muffled roar that echoed through the universe, the world violently shook and trembled as Zeus announced his arrival in the most direct way!
That's right—he had once again directly crashed into Mount Othrys, once again toppling this divine mountain that had suffered many disasters in recent years, raising clouds of dust!
The divine mountain and earth groaned together, painful sounds echoing between heaven and earth. Accompanied by these high-pitched groans, God King Kronos roared as he charged out from the endless ash.
His majestic eyes were full of burning fury: "Zeus! You detestable little thief! This trick again!"
No wonder the God King was so angry—this wasn't Zeus's first time, not even his second time doing such a thing.
This crude "entrance method" was practically his trademark. He showed no God King's bearing at all, completely not playing by the rules.
You must know that when he, Kronos, attacked Mount Olympus, he certainly didn't topple Mount Olympus!
The God King wanted face, displayed bearing, had propriety and restraint, but Zeus didn't care about any of that.
This was Zeus's long-prepared scheme!
Not an impulsive reckless action, which was why the God King hadn't become suspicious.
The purpose was very clear—to enrage the God King, making the God King directly battle him within the world, thus not giving the God King the chance to transfer the battlefield to the cosmic starry sky.
After all, the three Hundred-Handed Giants could only display their greatest power within the world—within heaven and earth was their home field.
It was just unfortunate for this innocent divine mountain, repeatedly toppled, bearing the most undeserved disasters in the divine war.
It couldn't really be called undeserved disaster, since Mount Othrys had also enjoyed supreme glory under Kronos's order.
Sure enough, Zeus's crude and direct surprise attack didn't make the God King suspicious. After all, this wasn't once or twice—Kronos had long grown accustomed to his "greeting" method.
Everything was as Zeus expected. Kronos now had only violent, overwhelming anger in his heart.
Detestable Zeus, that damned little thief!
Every time attacking without warning, often directly wrecking the place!
Today they were holding a feast with the gods, eating celestial delicacies and drinking wine, singing songs and dancing, having a great time.
Suddenly the home exploded!
No matter how good-tempered a god was, they absolutely couldn't endure such humiliation and provocation.
Moreover, the God King's temper was never good.
His tyranny was known to all gods.
Kronos charged out roaring. He didn't want to say another word at this moment. His massive divine form swelled in anger, directly manifesting his majestic Titan God King true form, swinging fists capable of shaking heaven and earth, bringing incomparably violent power to strike at Zeus.
Zeus laughed heartily as he met the God King, just like so many previous battles. Whether power or authority, what he displayed showed no difference, still maintaining the appearance of being evenly matched with Kronos.
The other gods also each found their old opponents. The seemingly endless battle once again unfolded within the world, the scene again chaotic with divine power surging everywhere.
Hades still held the rear, ready to provide support at any time. Everything was no different, continuing the previous stalemate.
After the battle's most intense opening phase, it still fell into evenly matched deadlock.
Until Zeus confirmed Kronos had no particular guard up, and even as the battle entered familiar deadlock, his spirit relaxed somewhat.
The God King even lightened his attacks, after all being within the world, unwilling to cause too much damage to the world, mainly to avoid angering Mother of All Things again.
Then, the next instant, the entire world and even the entire universe suddenly heard a divine nature-shocking explosive roar!
Throughout the entire world, endless divine thunder appeared out of nowhere!
Not appearing gradually, but instantaneous, suffocating darkness, in the most sudden manner, covering the entire boundless universe in one moment!
As if the universe's polar night at this moment, carrying judgment's majesty, suddenly descended!
The entire world at this moment became a complete realm of storm clouds and thunder!
The firmament trembled as it shed all color, leaving only oppressive lead-gray, symbolizing the storm's arrival!
Rumbling deafening roars rose and fell without cease. Countless dazzling lightning bolts painted the entire world pure white!
Uranus wailed instinctively, Earth Mother Goddess groaned in dizziness.
Countless majestic mountain ranges collapsed under pressure, turning to powder; the profound sea boiled under ultimate light and heat, raising towering waves; the great ocean flow surrounding the world raised terrifying waves, almost breaking apart.
Crius couldn't control the universe's fragmentation—endless starry sky everywhere was violently collapsing and burning; Hyperion's divine nature shook violently, countless stars exploded one after another, becoming the most gorgeous fireworks in the dark starry sky!
The entire universe's basic structure became fragile before this power!
In just one instant, the universe seemed to welcome destructive ending.
