Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: Soul Pocus, Harald Arrives Late Again

"Marines, look here!!"

Loki descended on Odin, approaching the battlefield that had turned into a meat grinder.

Many Marines subconsciously observed with their peripheral vision, only to see a lifeless meat shell falling helplessly from high in the sky.

Thump~

The lifeless meat shell fell helplessly from high in the sky.

"Vice Admiral Donnied!!"

"The Vice Admiral has been killed; we can't win."

"Run!!!"

"....."

Donnied's death completely shattered the mental defense of the G-14 Branch. Marines collapsed and fled one by one, wishing they had two more legs.

"Hahaha! Overconfident Marines, daring to attack Prince Loki!"

"Kill them all, leave no one alive!!!"

"...."

In stark contrast, the giants' morale rose again, chasing and slaughtering the Marines.

High in the sky.

"Life or Death?"

Red light bloomed in Loki's snake pupils, and soul fluctuations turned into awe-inspiring pressure, resonating with his Conqueror's Haki.

The double mental pressure cast a shadow over the hearts of the fleeing Marines, and ghostly white souls poked their heads out of their bodies.

Witnessing this eerie scene, the Marines, who were already frightened birds, had a complete mental breakdown. Many rolled their eyes on the spot and fell into a coma.

"Ahhh!! What is this?"

"You, your souls are coming out!"

"Gulp! What's going on,"

"So scary..."

"...."

"Not answering means death too!" Loki raised his hand and pulled fiercely.

Souls left their bodies one by one, like swallows returning to their nests, falling into Loki's palm.

And the Marines who lost their souls, like electric scooters with their batteries removed, suddenly fell to the ground, their wide-open eyes retaining fear.

The battle ended completely.

"Eh?"

The change came too fast, catching the giants off guard.

"Taking souls, what a terrifying ability."

Looking at the specks of light representing souls in Loki's palm, Raideen subconsciously gripped his long sword tighter.

He had fought for half his life; severed limbs and broken bodies, fighting in blood, had always been the spice of life.

But he had never seen such a bizarre way of dying. No flashes of swords, no clash of weapons.

Just by Loki raising his hand and pulling, living people lost their vitality, their souls snatched away like harvested wheat stalks.

"Fortunately, Prince Loki is our King, not someone from the World Government or the Marines." Bjorn couldn't help but rejoice.

"That's right. In physical confrontation, who have we giants ever feared? But I really don't know how to counter this method targeting the soul." Sigurd echoed.

The giants looked up at the gathering soul light spots in Loki's palm, their Adam's apples rolling unconsciously a few times. In their eyes, besides fear, there was a trace of imperceptible excitement—fear of the bizarre horror of this ability, and excitement that such a powerful existence is the future King of Elbaf!

Looking down at the pairs of eyes full of respect and awe, the corners of Loki's mouth curled up slightly.

Strength is the key to winning respect in this world.

Loki looked at Raideen and instructed: "Master Raideen, leave the rest to you."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness Loki. I will dig out everything of value in this Marine base." Raideen's tone carried a respect he had never shown before.

Such a King will surely leave a glorious mark in the history of Elbaf.

As the teacher of His Highness Loki, he will also be famous for eternity!

"Good." Loki responded, turned around, and flew high into the sky to study the ability of the Soul-Soul Fruit.

"Everyone...."

The giants looted this Marine base with great enthusiasm.

A few minutes later.

A huge ship with bull horn decorations on the bow, twice the size of the Giant Warrior Pirates' ship, appeared in the offshore waters of the G-14 Branch.

"Late again."

On the deck, Harald looked at the Marine branch filled with smoke, his heart sinking.

Things had ultimately come to the scene he least wanted to see.

"Hey! Someone is approaching."

"Idiot, are you a salted shrimp? That's His Majesty Harald's vessel!"

"Notify everyone, His Majesty Harald is here."

"...."

The giants on lookout also discovered Harald's traces.

"Finally meeting my cheap old man."

Loki interrupted his research on souls, his snake pupils sweeping over, taking Harald into his sight.

Harald wore Viking-style battle armor, a cloak, a war sword at his waist, and double horns on his forehead.

His face was ugly, and with a height of over forty meters, he looked like a moving building.

Even from several nautical miles away, the sense of oppression was full.

"Loki, what is an 'old man'? Is it food?"

Charlotte Linlin stopped kneading Apollo and asked curiously.

Loki pretended not to see Apollo's cry for help and changed the subject: "You don't have an old man anymore, and maybe I won't have one soon either."

"Both gone? It doesn't matter, Loki, you still have me! You said you would be with Linlin forever, and Linlin will be with you forever too." Charlotte Linlin blinked her big eyes.

"Linlin is so cute."

Loki couldn't help but rub Charlotte Linlin's head.

If only everyone else's thoughts were as simple as Linlin's.

"Loki, you are younger than me, you can't pat my head like an adult." Charlotte Linlin pouted in dissatisfaction.

"But I'm taller than you!"

After controlling his growth hormone himself, Loki's height changed every day.

"Damn it, Loki, you must have been eating secretly. I want extra meals too!"

Amidst the noise, Loki took Linlin and descended.

Harbor.

As soon as Harald got off the ship, he was surrounded by a group of giants.

"His Majesty Harald, look at our masterpiece. Not a single Marine escaped!"

"You came here specially because you were worried about Prince Loki's safety, right? No need to worry at all. Prince Loki is a warrior favored by the Sun God, much stronger than we imagined."

"That's right. Thunder is Prince Loki's authority, fire is Prince Loki's crown, and soul is Prince Loki's power. Prince Loki might be even stronger than Your Majesty Harald in the future!"

"..."

The giants described the situation all at once, not noticing that Harald's face was getting darker and darker.

Loki saw it clearly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop curling up.

The unhappier Harald is, the greater the impact of this matter on his peaceful diplomatic relations.

The further the distance between Harald and the World Government, the more it aligns with Loki's interests.

"Phew~"

Harald took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, and looked complicatedly at the approaching Loki.

Clearly an infant born only about two months ago, yet he was already a head taller than the 18-year-old Hajrudin.

Loki not only inherited everything from him but far surpassed him back then.

Loki greeted with a smile: "Your Majesty Harald."

"Your Majesty Harald? Loki, are you unwilling to even call me father?"

Harald stared at Loki with disappointment.

Loki replied calmly: "We are not at home now, but on the battlefield. Your Majesty Harald, what is the meaning of your coming here?"
