Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

--- Chapter 362 ---

"Uchiha Gaeshi."

As Madara's voice spread on the sea, everyone saw his gunbai shine with a brilliant white light. Lou Wei was taken aback by it, feeling an uneasiness in his chest.

Even with the newest version of battle armor, Lou Wei didn't feel safe.

BOOM!

A massive explosion followed after the white light, blasting everything before Madara to ashes. Feeling the heat, the Ghost of Uchiha showed everyone he wasn't just a mere commander. He's a powerhouse not bound by simple standards.

Like, who the hell absorbed abyssal energy and blasted it back to the source with such ease? Only Yunlong could top Madara in this matter.

Of course, the Sun and Moon Empire isn't a pushover.

Lou Wei coughed profusely and felt numbness in his entire body, more so in the left arm. He groaned in pain and noticed a good chunk of his flesh erased from this world.

"Bastard..." He grumbled at Madara.

Madara grinned and commented, "Why so mad? We haven't kicked this battle to the limit. Losing some flesh in the fight is normal, boy."

"You Bright Spirit Empire's TRASH!" Lou Wei kicked the air and caused a massive shockwave in the area. He wanted to punch Madara's face, but the red-eyed commander dodged to the left.

Madara struck Lou Wei's kneecaps and bent his back slightly. He can stun Lou Wei in the air, forcing the Sun and Moon Empire's admiral into a passive state.

'I-I can't move?!' Lou Wei was shocked.

"Mysterious Red Hand." Madara breathed in, punching Lou Wei in the guts. His entire fist seemed to glisten in crimson color.

BOOM!

An energy wave traveled through Lou Wei's body, passing through his armor and organs. He spewed out a mouthful of blood and felt everything inside his body messed up. Lou Wei's blood flow went backward, and his abyssal spirit energy reacted negatively.

Madara doesn't stop and launches a flurry of attacks, ranging from close-quarter combat in the sky. Since the area is too fast, he never let Lou Wei too far, limiting the admiral from escaping.

BOOM!

BOOM!

BOOM!

Several air pockets were created in the sky, leaving everyone awed for a moment.

"We detected something on coordinate N7, S0." David alerted the Bright Spirit Army. "Flander, take over the Crimson Down to the location and prevent the Sun and Moon Empire from escaping our formation net."

"Follow me!" Flander shouted above the helicarrier. He activated his owl martial soul and summoned a pair of black-feathered wings on his back, disappearing from the deck.

The Crimson Down unit followed Flander to the detected abnormality by David. They saw something grotesque, a being with thousands of limbs and myriad human-like eyes.

"Nightmare Beast!"

Ma Xiaotao felt her mind shaken and warned, "Everyone, Don't stare into that monster's eyes. It could initiate a spiritual attack!"

Flander nodded and added, "Wind Slayer Sub-Unit and Fire Demolishing Squad Group, start your hand signs. Combine Wind Style and Fire Style to burn the monster."

A series of masked individuals floated in the air, despite not being a title douluo. Even so, they are picked and trained by Uchiha Madara.

Not to mention, They are still powerhouses over level 85 with Spirit Douluo Realm.

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!!!"

"Wind Style: Casting Wind Nets!!!"

"Fire Style: Destroyer Flame!!!"

"Fire Style: Great Fireball!!!"

Four jutsu are quickly cast from the Crimson Dawn's sub-units, merging into an enormous fire dragon over two kilometers. It released scalding heat and burned through the air.

ROAR!

The Nightmare Beast roared and clashed with the fire dragon, igniting itself.

"XIAOTAO!" Flander pointed at the Nightmare Beast's head.

Ma Xiaotao's whole appearance has changed. Her crimson hair became longer as the once fair white skin glowed in a pinkish hue. She activated her Dark Phoenix Martial Soul, charging spirit energy rapidly to her palm.

She skipped through the air like a charging phoenix and smashed her hand against the Nightmare Beast's head. A black flame emerged shortly after and increased the intensity of the combined jutsu before.

"Ascending of Phoenix: Burning Moon." Ma Xiaotao sighed while teleporting back to her position.

SWOOSH! BOOOM!

A pillar of flame ascended to the sky and drilled through the clouds.

ROOAARR!

The Nightmare Beast screamed, rolling its body on the ocean to kill the flame off. However, it's useless because the combination of four jutsu specified to burn a title douluo and Ma Xiaotao's Dark Phoenix Flame is too strong for normal ocean water.

"Not bad," Madara commented while glancing at his subordinates.

"Well, it's time to finish this joke."

Joke?

Everyone in the helicarrier heard Madara's world.

Even Lou Wei wa speechless.

"Joke... DO YOU THINK I AM A JOKE?!!" Lou Wei furiously shouted at Madara. "I'm LOU WEI! ONE OF THE SUN AND MOON EMPIRE's GREATEST ADMIRALS!"

"DON'T FUCKING JOKE AROUND HERE, YOU BASTARD."

Uchiha Madara laughed when listening to the child's rambling, putting his Gunbai on the shoulder. Nine Red Spirit Rings emerged from thin air and were "immediately." followed by the appearance of a nine-tailed fox with dreamy orangeish furs.

"Hashira, Watch." Madara clenched his fist.

The fox rolled his eyes and commented, "You call me for this? What the fuck, Madara!"

"Whatever, finish that trash fast."

"AAAA!" Lou Wei activated the berserk protocol in his battle armor and raised his cultivation to the demi-god level. So what if Uchiha Madara has nine red spirit rings? He's still a title douluo like him.

A murky dark light escaped Lou Wei's armor, making it as if a demon had possessed his body. Lou Wei chuckled because power was overflowing his body like a constant water stream.

He teleported behind Madara and smashed him with a staff made of abyssal energy.

CLANK!

Madara summoned his newly given Scythe Martial Soul and pushed Lou Wei away. "Good weapon." He waved the Scythe, creating a full moon slash in the air.

It expanded and overflowed the area with intense energy.

BAM!

Blow after blow, Madara nullified Lou Wei's attacks like they were nothing to him. Weirdly, Lou Wei felt this red-eyed bastard using him as a training dummy.

"The handle is longer, but my skill hasn't become rusty." Madara lifted the new weapon in his hand, feeling the harmony in his soul.

"DIE!!!" Lou Wei landed a nasty energy attack on Madara's back.

BOOM!

"H-Huh? What is this-!"

A thick formation of rib cages appeared around Madara's body, protecting him from Lou Wei's attack. "Was that a fly?" He stretched his neck in anticipation.

"Because I couldn't feel anything."

BOOM!

A portion of the sea below Madara and Lou Wei evaporated because the Ghost of Uchiha kicked the Sun and Moon Empire's admiral like he was a ragdoll.

Madara didn't passively counter anymore and went full offensive against Lou Wei, putting the admiral in a pitiful position.

"MORE!"

Madara breaks Lou Wei's armor effortlessly with his punch and slowly but undoubtedly breaks the man inside it too. Lou Wei was overwhelmed by Madara's relentless strikes, finding no way to fight back.

BLERG!

"ARRGGHHHHH!!"

Madara's hand pierced through his chest and said, "Too slow."

"Slow? HAHAHAHAHA, THEN DIE HERE WITH ME, MADARA!" Lou Wei held Madara's hand tightly, igniting the last bit of his abyssal energy. A suction force akin to vacuum space initiated by him.

BOOOOOOOM!

The monitor filled with murky blood vapor, but everyone could see Madara standing still on the ocean with Susanoo covering him.

"Die with you? No thanks, I have two wives at home." Madara brushed his battle suit. "That's one."

"Keep going." His voice entered the Crimson Dawn's earpieces.

"YES, Captain!" They responded with a burning spirit.

Madara moved his gaze to the black portal Lou Wei created when facing him and frowned because something was watching them from there. He flew out and prepared the Gunbai, letting everyone know to secure a distance from this thing.

"It's a Dimensional Crack," David said from the control room.

"You need an advanced sealing technique to close it. Or raw Spatial Manipulation to overpower it. Can you do it?"

"You're looking down on me, David." Madara waved his hand signs and created some shadow clones.

The shadow clones began reconstructing the space-sealing formula, but Madara's instinct suddenly jumped in a hurry.

Madara crossed his arms and saw a humanoid creature with lizard-like features attacking him with its tail. "Another abyssal beast." His Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan detected the murky dark energy.

He was about to finish the creature, but several similar abyssal beasts also jumped out of the portal.

"This is..." Madara killed the abyssal beast, who attacked him first.

"Invasion."

"Empress, what should we do?"

"I can continue to seal the portal and take care of the leaking, but that means I can't deal with the Sun and Moon Empire's battleship." He continued, which made Bibi Dong ponder for a moment.

"How long will it takes for you to seal the portal?" Bibi Dong asked back.

Madara checked the surroundings and confidently answered, "Ten minutes. Sealing Technique is not my forte, but I'm skilled enough to do it at a faster pace."

"Well, maybe 5 minutes is enough." He waved another hand sign to create eight more shadow clones.

[Warning!]

[Warning!!]

The AI, Cloudy, warned everyone in the helicarriers.

[Multiple Space Warps have been detected in "W9, N0." and "S2, E7."]

"Damn. They are pouring everything into the drain at this point." David used the satellite to view the coordinates and was "honestly." dumbfounded by the Sun and Moon Empire's decision.

"Liu Erlong, the portal is 10 kilometers away from your station-!"

"I'll be there." Liu Erlong had already soared to the sky.

David connected to Dugu Bo's earpiece and said, "There are three dark portals near you."

"You shouldn't let the abyssal beast spread out."

"I know, I know. Stop panicking." Dugu Bo yawned while spreading his fingers, allowing the green mist to escape his skin.

"Dragonborn Unit, clear the way and return to the post when everything is over." Bibi Dong stated while observing the monitor.

"Poison Hall, try to contain the abyssal beast in one place."

"Do your best." She added lastly, making the commander smiles in excitement.

Bibi Dong closed her eyes and viewed everything in her mind, assuming the reason why the Sun and Moon Empire executed this reckless move.

"Don't tell me..." She opened her eyes.

"David, how is the situation on the Douluo Continent?"

David was confused by that question and responded, "Let me check first your majesty."

"Ah..."

"There are some small boats and flying ships approaching the continent."

"They used stealth paths... The portal is a distraction, but aren't they just dumb?" After all, Yunlong and his maids currently stayed on the Douluo Continent.

Bibi Dong giggled and said, "Fufu, Let's focus on the frontline."

"They thought the portals would catch our attention and hold the army in one place, but they were wrong."

There should be a limit on how many portals the Sun and Moon Empire can open simultaneously.

"They didn't lock us here."

"We locked them with us here."
