Despite holding such a huge advantage, he had still ended up like this in the end. But wasn't all combat experience tempered through battle? He felt no regret over this injury.

But once things reached this point, it might be difficult for him to control what happened next.

He had no extraordinary recovery ability, so he could only endure the pain and continue dealing with the two men before him.

"Huff, huff, huff... After costing me so many men, you're still not dead? What a surprise."

Omoro remained in his werewolf form. In this form, his attack, defense, and mobility were all at their strongest.

He was not like Nova, who had become carried away after gaining a slight advantage. Instead, he maintained a wary, tense expression. Even though Nova had been seriously wounded, Omoro was still as cautious as ever.

"I'm not dead yet. Aren't you celebrating a little too soon?"

Nova said weakly.

His face had begun to turn pale, and the wounds across his body were bleeding uncontrollably. Junhe, standing outside, sensed what was happening and instantly rushed to the edge of the barrier. He could see the situation inside, but he could not enter.

Even if he shouted from outside, no one inside could hear him. And he could not hear anything being said within the barrier either!

"You can talk all you want, but in your current state, how could you possibly kill the two of us? King of Tru, just surrender peacefully!"

Kova said with a smile from the side.

With things having reached this point, they felt as though victory was already in their grasp.

Leaning on Demon Blade Muramasa, Nova barely managed to rise to his feet. He knew he did not have much time left. If he could not settle this quickly, they might truly take him away.

Although his men were outside, if these two wanted to flee, that group probably would not be able to stop them.

Most importantly, once they got out, they would definitely use Den Den Mushi to contact the people outside. That was the main reason Nova did not want the barrier to disperse at all.

Once he fell unconscious, the barrier might naturally dissipate. When that happened, not only he but also this country could be dragged into endless warfare.

Leaning on his sword, Nova knew that no matter what, he absolutely had to keep these two inside the barrier.

"System, do you have any medicine that can quickly heal wounds?"

Nova began communicating with System Space in his mind.

He was not fighting alone. More importantly, he himself was a bug. With the System, he could practically be said to possess an immortal body.

No matter the situation, as long as he had money, nothing else mattered.

Despite being so seriously injured, Nova was not worried in the slightest. But using such a heavily wounded body to fight two people would probably be difficult, perhaps even impossible.

"Answer: The host has sustained severe injuries and may purchase a related rapid self-healing ability. Your remaining balance in System Space is 1.05 billion Beli. Would you like to make a random selection?"

The System's mechanical voice rang out. But was this really the time to consider such a thing? With a helpless look on his face, he had no room to choose. At a time like this, the System was actually asking him to make a random selection?

He had known for a long time that this was basically a lottery. Over the past few years, he did not even know how much money he had poured into it, only for it to produce men's underwear in the end. It had made him spit out a mouthful of blood on the spot.

This so-called lottery method was simply too damn rigged, completely useless. When he had first bought an automatic weaving machine, he had tried it again, only for it to give him a set of women's underwear. From then on, he had been filled with distrust toward the word "random."

But now, while dealing with the two men in front of him, he had no time to carefully pick anything. He could only endure the pain, furrow his brow, and answer, "Agreed..."

After saying those two words, Nova stopped paying attention to what was happening inside. Still, no matter how bad his luck was, it should not give him something as useless as a bandage for healing wounds.

With just a glance, Nova saw that System Space had directly emptied his balance, then began spinning something like a roulette wheel.

Outside the barrier, Junhe was so furious that both his hands were fully covered in Armament Haki. Anxiously, he hammered the ground, cracking the marble slabs beneath his fists inch by inch.

But he simply could not get inside. Seeing his king reduced to such a state, a crushing sense of helplessness surged into his heart.

Meanwhile, inside the barrier, Omoro watched Nova remain motionless for so long and no longer maintained his Silver Moon Wolf form.

After returning to normal, he stood there bare-chested. From somewhere, he produced a pair of sunglasses and put them back on.

"King of Tru, you should have accepted your fate by now! Wouldn't it be better to just stay like this obediently?"

Omoro seemed to feel that victory was already his. Kova felt the same way.

But at that moment, Nova suddenly stood up, and the wounds on his body began healing rapidly. The sight instantly made both men tense up again.

Neither of them knew what had happened. Why had things suddenly turned out like this?

Among the Devil Fruit abilities in this world, there were indeed abilities that could rapidly heal the user. But the king before them had clearly eaten a spatial Devil Fruit. It was impossible for him to possess another ability.

Yet the facts were right before their eyes. No matter how hard they thought about it, it was useless.

"Omoro, I wonder who those words you just said were meant for?"

After rising to his feet, Nova looked up at the towering Omoro, a strange smile on his lips.

In truth, he was completely dumbfounded as well. This random function, which had never been very reliable, had actually given him something so unbelievable this time that even he found it hard to believe.

After the roulette wheel in System Space stopped, the ability related to healing had ultimately landed on the Sage Body from the Naruto World.

Not to mention the one billion Beli this time—even one hundred billion or one trillion would have been completely worth it.

This unexpected gain left him so astonished that, from the moment he obtained it, Nova had wondered whether he was dreaming.
