The Ninth God of Destruction's furious roar filled the entire universe, causing the whole God of Destruction realm to tremble incessantly.
Sensing that something was wrong, Uchiha Hikaru quickly retreated. The world before his eyes flickered between light and dark. When his vision returned, he saw a gigantic figure standing amid endless spacetime.
"I nearly forgot. You were inside my body just now. This is my true form—the Ultimate God of Destruction!"
The figure roared, forming countless blades of spacetime that nearly sent Uchiha Hikaru flying. If he slipped outside this God of Destruction realm, getting back in would probably be difficult. The end of every world was constantly shifting, and finding it was only possible when the God of Destruction controlling it was off guard.
Still, this power only gave Uchiha Hikaru the sense of nearly forty billion in combat strength. It was still roughly ten billion short of his own power!
"You're truly useless. You destroyed the universe under your jurisdiction, yet only gained a little over forty billion in combat strength. Seventh God of Destruction, should I say you've grown old, or that it's time for you to die?"
Without pausing for even a moment, Uchiha Hikaru suddenly flashed forward and charged at the enormous God of Destruction.
Beneath that vast figure, he looked as tiny as an ant.
Yet the instant Uchiha Hikaru unleashed fifty billion in combat strength and crashed into the gigantic figure—
The entire void was illuminated by crimson light.
"No! How is this possible? Uchiha Hikaru, Zeno will judge you!"
"What nonsense. Die properly—Collapse!"
Ki Explosion!
A soaring blaze of brilliant gold instantly turned the nearly crumbling giant figure into rubble.
Congratulations! You have obtained God of Destruction's Spine!
One piece short.
The final item: the Cosmic Core!
Uchiha Hikaru
