Chapter Summaries

Imu confronted the God of Void after stopping its Void Light with his spatial authority, while Karna, Falcon Dragon, and Albertrion stayed behind to protect the Astra Militarum forces.

• Karna considered his unavailable Anti-God Noble Phantasm and prepared to defend against the Void Light, but Imu stopped it with his golden sword.
• Imu explained that his awakened Space Fruit had reached a high-specification level, then pursued the God of Void while Karna, Falcon Dragon, and Albertrion attacked the insect swarm below.
• Imu sent a storm of golden sword energies at the God of Void, but its gravity magic diverted them and tried to crush him.
• Imu countered with Xihe, whose sunlike blade overwhelmed the God of Void's Radiant Brilliance and strained its World Gate.
• A spacetime rift opened amid the battle, and Imu escaped its gravitational pull after the Star Map warned him, while the rift dragged the God of Void inside.
• Imu glimpsed a purple-black planet through the stabilizing rift.

• Imu discovered that fate prevented him from entering Berserk World, then encountered Gaiseric emerging from a spatial rift.
• The Star Map said Gaiseric could not become a Star Disciple without his consent because the Water-Calling Sword was a high-specification object, but Imu attached a trace of his spiritual will to it and sent Gaiseric information.

• Imu reviewed a Cipher Pol report about twelve-year-old Kakashi Hatake gaining a Sharingan Fruit and realized that a Rinnegan Fruit had also appeared.

• Imu praised Kongming’s proposal and laughed at his broad criticism of past Devil Fruit users as illiterates.
