Isshiki appeared, and Yu panicked. "Senior Urashiki, th-that's him... He's the villain Isshiki! The fiend who destroyed my home and killed my mother!"
Isshiki's arrival put Urashiki on high alert. He knew Isshiki was far stronger than him-and no fool, either. Retreat was undoubtedly his best option right now!
But with the chance to become the Immortal God right before his eyes, how could Urashiki surrender it to someone else?
I'd rather die than retreat!! Once I eat the fruit and become the Immortal God, Isshiki won't be a threat at all!!
"Quick, give me the fruit!!!"
Urashiki abandoned all pretense of dignity and reached out to snatch it!
"You won't get your way."

Isshiki smiled faintly. "What if I resurrect your mother?"
Yu was overjoyed. "Really!!!"
Isshiki said gently, "Of course. Once I transcend life and death, I'll be able to use the Samsara
