In order to protect this great secret of Qingning Star, it is unknown whether Imu has killed one or two intruders who accidentally came to Qingning Star in the past eight hundred years!

After all, Imu has already made Qingning Star his own territory. If other powerful individuals want to take a share, it will inevitably lead to a life-or-death conflict!

"I just don't know what that giant egg is for. Why did Roger leave it in Laugh Tale? Was it for future generations?"

With Joy Boy's message, most of the mysteries that Vic didn't know are now clear. The only thing left is the giant egg that Roger always carried on the ship. He doesn't know what its purpose is, but it's highly likely to be related to the One Piece!

It's not surprising that Vic didn't search for the other Poneglyph scattered along the Grand Line, so it's understandable that he didn't know or understand some of them. But Robin and the others definitely knew, since Luffy had searched for almost all the Poneglyph along the Grand Line!

It was a day later when Vic's consciousness was pulled out of the illusion. Based on the text left by Joy Boy, he pieced together a lot of information and gained a deeper understanding of this fantastical world!

Although Qingning Star is very special in the entire universe, its specialness is also the root cause of the suffering of the people living on it!

Joy Boy was right when he said, "Those who are not of our kind must be guarded against." This was the greatest goodwill he could show towards other races!

This was proposed by Joy Boy after he was defeated by the Imu, an alien race, and the entire world would be ruled by aliens. Even so, Joy Boy did not condemn all races in the universe!

If it were someone else, they would definitely say, "Those who are not of our kind are bound to have different hearts. Any aliens who come to Qingning Star should not stay for long. They should either leave or die, so that future generations will be vigilant when dealing with visitors from outer space, and will also have the strength to drive them away!"

Vic believes this is the most valuable advice Joy Boy left behind. "Born in hardship, die in comfort." One must broaden one's horizons and not get bogged down in petty squabbles within one's own limited sphere, or one will see the consequences by simply looking at the world today!

After Vic stepped out of his seclusion, he found that everything was normal outside. No other pirate crews had come here, Luffy and his crew hadn't returned so soon.

The true state of Lodestar Island was revealed to Vic. He found that after reading the words left by Joy Boy, he could see the world much more clearly, as if he had opened his mind's eye!

"Old buddy, it's your turn to go in. Hopefully, this will increase our chances of winning a little!"

Vic retrieved the Divine Staff from the Dimensional Space. After his lightning abilities Awakening, he rarely used this artifact. After mastering the Law of Lightning, he never used it again!

Because he no longer needs to use the Divine Staff to amplify the power of lightning. No one else needs him to do so, except for Imu. But the enemy he is about to face happens to be Imu, a powerful figure. If the Divine Staff can amplify the power, that would be even better!

In fact, with Vic's current mastery of the Law of Lightning, he could also forge a divine artifact related to lightning!

The Divine Staff, for example, was a weapon forged by the previous Lightning Law God. However, forging a divine artifact takes a considerable amount of time, and Vic doesn't have that much time to spare. He doesn't even have enough time to cultivate and improve himself!

Looking at the Divine Staff in his hand, Vic felt a bit complicated. The previous god who controlled the Law of Lightning was most likely killed by those powerful beings of the same level among the Celestial Dragons' ancestors!

But the other side must have paid a huge price, at least losing a God Realm expert. Otherwise, the final result wouldn't have been that all the God Realm experts died, and then Imu stepped in!

At that time, the number of the God Realm experts on Qingning Star should have been fewer than that of the extraterrestrial visitors. Vic had witnessed the meeting between the two sides on the top of the Red Line!

Even if the Sun King didn't bring all the God Realm experts with him, he probably wouldn't have left many. Even so, the gap was still huge, with the other side having as many as twenty-one leaders!

Of course, there is a possibility that there are wild God Realm experts on Qingning Star, but those who have not submitted to the Sun Kingdom. The Lightning Law God should be one, but there are definitely not many like him!

Therefore, the native God Realm on Qingning Star have at least killed one enemy of the same level. Power of Law of Lightning, which have top-ranking attack power, may have killed more than one enemy, but the opponents were most likely ganged up on!

When Vic used the Divine Staff for the first time after eating the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, he heard the Divine Staff's former owner's unwilling shout, which was recorded by the Divine Staff!

Although Vic only heard the voice, the resentment in it was incredibly intense, and it even mentioned the Moon People. Could this match up with the writings left by Joy Boy?

When those cosmic bandits met with the Sun King, they mentioned they came from the moon. Therefore, it's easy to deduce the circumstances surrounding the former Thunder God's death. If he hadn't been besieged or tricked, would he have felt such resentment before his demise?

Vic walked forward, Divine Staff in hand. Less than two meters ahead, the void automatically cracked and expanded, like an irregular diamond-shaped portal. Only after Vic stepped into the portal did the void return to normal!

Vic used his spatial powers to arrive at Raijin Island, where lightning strikes year-round, growing stronger from the outside in. The black lightning at the very center is even comparable to a strike from the God Realm, which is enough to show that this island is extraordinary!

The source that drives the continuous release of black lightning, a technique only usable by those at the God Realm, must be at a higher level than the black lightning itself!

Therefore, Vic came here to collect a higher level of origin into the Divine Staff. At that time, the Divine Staff could barely be considered as a God Realm combat force!

As soon as Vic stepped out of the portal, he appeared on the outskirts of Raijin Island. The Divine Staff in his hand immediately acted like a magnet, attracting all the lightning bolts that were about to strike him and causing them to strike the Divine Staff instead!

The Divine Staff acted like a dry sponge, absorbing all the incoming lightning bolts completely. However, the ordinary lightning on the outskirts of Raijin Island was not Vic's target, so he continued walking deeper into the island without stopping!

As Vic walked into the area of black lightning, the black lightning bolts that had been striking the sky from the ground suddenly changed direction and all headed towards the Divine Staff. If you looked down from the sky directly above Raijin Island at this moment, you would see that the central area of Raijin Island had become a vacuum without lightning!

The area of black lightning wasn't large, and Vic had been here before, so he didn't stop but continued walking towards the center.

Because at the very center of the black lightning area, there is a raised, tiered circular platform that resembles a multi-tiered cake.

The platform wasn't very high, only a little over a meter tall. It was completely black, and the circular base at the bottom wasn't very big either, only a little over a meter in diameter. Overall, it looked like an altar!

There happens to be a small hole in the middle of the top level of this tiered platform. If the Divine Staff is inserted into the hole, Divine Staff will be able to absorb the black lightning in this area more effectively!

That's what Vic thought, and that's what he did. However, when he reached the circular platform on the steps, he paused for a moment, but quickly recovered and inserted the Divine Staff directly into the hole!

Vic stepped back to look again. The Divine Staff and the small hole on the platform fit together perfectly, as if the Divine Staff was meant to be there, but for some reason, Divine Staff had left Raijin Island!
