As mentioned previously, the true effect of Nine Lives Blade Works is to multiply the effect of a powerful technique by nine.
Take this Haymaker, fused with nine layers of buffs, as an example. After stacking it with Nine Lives Blade Works, Peter can unleash this punch nine times in succession.
The effect can truly be described as world-destroying.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Within the frozen time, terrifying roars reverberated against Dormammu's body one after another.
The first punch, Peter's fist, landed squarely on Dormammu's nose.
With just one punch, Dormammu's large face was bloodied, his nose pushed to the side, as if a grocery store had been overturned: salty, sour, and spicy, all spilling out at once.
The second punch followed immediately, landing on his eye socket and brow, shattering the brow bone and sending his eyeball bursting out, as if a silk shop had been overturned: red, black, and crimson, all rolling out.
The third punch, the fourth punch, the fifth punch...
Punch after punch landed on Dormammu's face, sounding like a full-scale religious ritual: bells, cymbals, and gongs all ringing at once.
When the nine seconds of time stop ended and time resumed its flow.
Everyone looked up in confusion, immediately followed by the sound of everyone gasping in shock.
In the sky, the figure crowned with the Flames of Regency stood proudly. Opposite him, Dormammu, that arrogant usurper, lay stiffly in the void, his large face completely caved in, his features a mangled mess.
His large face was now covered in pitch-black cracks.
Countless multi-colored energies surged crazily beneath the bloody, mangled flesh.
This was the corrosive effect of the multiple buffs on Dormammu's energy-based body.
Even a Faltine body, composed entirely of energy, could not withstand the nine layers of buffs forcibly concentrated together.
Whether it was Advanced Conqueror's Haki, Celestial Energy, Cosmic Energy, Amaterasu, Phoenix Force, or the Flames of Regency, these energies were now rampaging through Dormammu's body in tacit agreement.
The direct result was that Dormammu... was completely paralyzed!
His massive body hung stiffly in the void; only exhaling, with no inhaling, from his already mangled nose, and he was completely unable to move.
The power of Advanced Conqueror's Haki and the Phoenix Force took turns, crazily assaulting Dormammu's will, preventing him from even recovering from this endless pain.
This feeling was somewhat like Satori's domain: Unlimited Void.
His brain was directly overwhelmed by a massive amount of information, causing his body to fall into total paralysis.
However, what was acting on Dormammu wasn't just useless garbage information in his brain, but real, physical energy tearing!
"Wow~"
Although Hela did not know what had happened during the frozen time, seeing Dormammu's miserable state and Peter's fist, which had not yet been fully retracted, she could roughly guess what had occurred.
She couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "That punch, it had strength!"
Behind her, Gwen and Clea's large eyes were filled with little stars.
Gwen looked at Peter, feeling a long-lost sense of peace welling up in her heart.
He was still the same boy from before, without the slightest change. As long as he was by her side, she would never need to worry about any difficulties or obstacles!
Compared to Gwen, Clea's thoughts were much simpler and more direct.
I f*cking love this man to death! Brother, I want to bear your children!
Ancient One looked at Peter and subconsciously shook her head. She was indeed getting old and could no longer keep up with the times.
Now it seemed that the great problem she had fretted over for thousands of years was, in front of the current Peter, nothing more than a toy to be played with at will.
With such a Guardian to take over her work on Earth, she could die with a smile on her face in this life!
After an unknown amount of time, Dormammu finally recovered from the ravages of the various energies.
He scrambled up from the ground with lingering fear, looking at Peter as if he were seeing abstract conceptual gods like Eternity, Death, or Oblivion!
The feeling just now was simply too desperate.
He didn't even know what had happened or what kind of attack his opponent had launched; he had just ended up lying on the ground, trapped in endless, excruciating pain.
That pain was like having a swarm of ants crawling into his veins.
These ants were not only rampaging through his veins but also biting crazily, until they gnawed him down to a skeleton, completely shattering his entire being, only to reassemble him over and over again.
What was even more terrifying was that, as the Lord of the Dark Dimension, he had clearly already merged completely with the dark energy here.
As long as he was in this dimension, all his injuries would be instantly repaired by the dark energy here.
But when he suffered Peter's attack, that dark energy had gone on strike en masse.
Those energies refused to repair his injuries and even vaguely rejected his union with them!
"Damn it, what... what did you just do to me!"
Dormammu finally spoke. Although he tried hard to maintain his dignity as the Lord of the Dark Dimension, his voice was still trembling uncontrollably, and it sounded hoarse and unrecognizable.
"Curious? Then let's have you experience it one more time!"
As Peter spoke, a golden aura suddenly erupted from his body.
This golden aura soared into the sky, the immense energy causing his hair to stand on end! Arcs of electricity flickered in the void.
This was the ability he had obtained through the System Shop over the past three years—the Super Saiyan bloodline!
At this moment, he entered Super Saiyan 2 mode directly; this was the best state he could maintain normally.
Currently, Peter could at most enter the Super Saiyan 3 state, which was the long-haired, browless mode.
But perhaps because his own rage was not stable enough, the duration of this mode was very short, only about five minutes.
Even the Horse Talisman and the dog talisman could not keep him stably in the Super Saiyan 3 mode for long.
However, even this was enough.
But the Super Saiyan 2 mode and the power of the Flames of Regency should be enough to make Dormammu tremble!
Thinking this, his figure flashed, and he reappeared in front of Dormammu.
This time, because there was no time stop, although he was very fast—fast enough to create ripples in space—Dormammu was still able to capture Peter's movements by relying on his own powerful strength and his control over the entire Dark Dimension.
"Damn human, don't underestimate me!"
Dormammu roared, and as he opened his mouth, a beam of energy mixed with purple flames erupted from it.
Through their previous exchange, he had realized that Peter, possessing the Flames of Regency, was capable of resisting the corrosion of most dark energy.
Therefore, this time he used his own Faltine energy.
Dormammu was not a waste who only relied on dark energy; in the long years he had lived, the magical energy systems he had eroded and digested were actually no less than Peter's.
Seeing Peter facing the energy cannon he fired without dodging or evading, but instead putting his hands behind his back, posing as if he intended to take the attack head-on.
A gleam of excitement flashed in Dormammu's eyes.
Damn it, to dare to underestimate me so much; if I don't blow you to death this time, I will at least make you feel the same pain I felt before!
