This time, through the first stage of Fairy Tail's Nightmare Dungeon, we did indeed obtain the trump Fairy Melody Lied.
However, Bai Yu also lacked confidence in the face of Imu's unknown Rinnegan abilities.
If Imu had actually made a move, Bai Yu would indeed have been able to use the Senzu Bean to regain his fighting strength.
However, without enough trump cards, Bai Yu couldn't possibly kill Imu.
They might even struggle to protect themselves.
Moreover, the casting of the Super Magic Fairy Melody just now was one of Bai Yu's last trump cards.
Once the fight actually begins, there's no way to unleash a new, brilliant move.
This might backfire, allowing Imu to figure out his true strength and making him even more determined to fight to the death.
This is one of the things Bai Yu absolutely does not want to see.
It could be said that Imu's decision not to make a move suggests that this probing exchange ended in a draw.
Bai Yu, are you saying Imu isn't coming?
Sengoku forced down the wine in his mouth and hurriedly asked.
After so many days of fierce battles, and just now the inhuman human wave tactics.
It has already exhausted the morale and spirit of so many people in the Marine Headquarters, and even some naval officers.
Everyone is holding their breath, trying to maintain appearances.
If Imu really chooses to make his move at this time, Sengoku believes that there will be very few people who are truly capable of doing so.
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Bai Yu.
Bai Yu smiled and took a swig of his drink.
"Don't worry, it seems Imu is still waiting. However, I also need some time. The next time we meet, she might regret missing the chance to stab me in the back."
Looking at Bai Yu, who had a calm and collected expression and still managed to crack a joke.
Those present, who had been holding their breath, finally let it all out.
Many people collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
The series of battles, the tense nerves, and the sudden relaxation immediately brought a wave of weariness to everyone's hearts.
Many people, still clutching their weapons, instantly fell asleep, snoring away.
Seeing this, Bai Yu couldn't help but sigh.
If we hadn't left the instance in time, everyone inside the Marine Headquarters would probably have been wiped out.
With Imu still not making a move, Bai Yu needs to return to the Nightmare Dungeon in the Fairy Tail World to complete the remaining progress bar.
To prevent the Five Elders and Imu from taking advantage of any weaknesses, Bai Yu's first task is to help Whitebeard and the others to arm themselves with their power to the teeth.
Let's set aside any concerns about the future.
However, this will give them an extra chance to protect themselves when facing the Five Elders!
" Bai Yu, I want to know, can you really give us new power?"
The Red-Haired voice suddenly rang out.
In the battle just now, he was in charge of guarding the cliffs where the Marine Headquarters was located, which connected to the sea.
Later, Bai Yu appeared, and the Red-Haired also returned with his men.
The Red-Haired witnessed firsthand the Super Magic that had just been unleashed, illuminating the entire sky.
It can be said that it was precisely for this reason that I witnessed Bai Yu's swift and decisive move in clearing the area.
That's why the Red-Haired is so eager to gain new power from Bai Yu.
The thought that all the hard work he had put into developing his Devil Fruit ability would be for nothing, only to benefit someone else, was incredibly disheartening.
For Red-Haired, this was a very difficult thing to swallow.
Faced with this impatient question, no one noticed the Red-Haired's abruptness; instead, they all showed eager expressions.
He stared intently at Bai Yu.
Even Whitebeard was no exception.
Feeling the many gazes cast upon him from all around, Bai Yu touched the tip of his nose and didn't keep anyone in suspense.
" Red-Haired, don't worry, I've returned this time to bring you new strength."
"However, there is a limit to the number of people who can enter this instance at one time; a maximum of four people can enter together."
"The power that can be obtained there should be more varied than in the world Akainu entered."
"Of course, this is on the premise that you can clear the dungeon; otherwise, you'll not only return empty-handed, but you'll also waste your opportunity."
"I imagine you've come up with a general plan by now. If everything's ready, I can open the instance and let you in."
As he spoke, Bai Yu had a sudden thought and issued a command to the system as well.
A low, piercing sound suddenly rang out in the sky.
The six-story ancient tower, with the force of a thousand pounds, crashed heavily to the ground with a deafening roar.
The immense impact shattered the ground of the square.
Looking at this ancient tower, the gazes of many present suddenly became intense.
Even Akainu, who had already experienced a dungeon raid, was no exception.
After all, facing the Five Elders who have an endless array of tricks up their sleeves, Akainu knows that strength is his greatest asset.
"Let's go, I'll lead the team this time!"
Akainu exhaled a deep breath and stepped forward first.
During their time at Marine Headquarters, Red-Haired Shanks and the others had clearly learned about the dungeon from Akainu.
Meanwhile, as Bai Yu said, they had already formulated a plan.
Faced with the appearance of the dungeon tower, Bai Yu didn't even need to say a word; a consensus was reached immediately.
" Red-Haired Captain, should I go first?" Laki took a bite of his roasted meat and spoke first.
After letting out a deep breath, the Red-Haired shook his head and said, "No need. In Bai Yu's eyes, I'm probably not even worth a second."
"So there's absolutely no need to worry, this isn't some kind of conspiracy."
"I may have lost my Devil Fruit powers, but I'm not lacking in the courage to gamble with my life. As the captain, let me test the waters first!"
Seeing that the Red-Haired had made up his mind, Laki wisely kept quiet, as did Benn Beckman and the others.
As crew members, they knew all too well how frustrated Red-Haired must have felt to have his hard-earned Devil Fruit slip through his fingers.
If this time there isn't a new hope...
Benn Beckman is genuinely worried that Red-Haired might do something drastic.
" Pops, I'll head over first too."
Ace smiled, lifted the brim of his hat, and stepped out into the crowd.
Seeing this, Bai Yu raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat surprised.
Bai Yu had guessed that the Whitebeard Pirates would definitely not be left out, but he didn't expect that Ace would be the first to attempt the dungeon.
Looking at Ace's smiling face, Bai Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"You guys aren't planning to ask me to cheat for you, are you?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room burst into laughter.
The fact that Bai Yu and Ace are sworn brothers is already common knowledge in this vast sea.
Sending Ace into the instance first is undoubtedly an attempt to get Bai Yu to go easy on him.
