[Yes, the World of Song was created by Freya, and all the rules were set by her.]

[The purpose of the World of Songs is to seal away the Demon King of Songs; therefore, considering the possibility of ordinary people obtaining sheet music and humming it, she added an extra rule.]

What rules?

[Ordinary people only stay in the World of Songs for a limited time, like having a beautiful dream, and will be expelled from the World of Songs when their time is up.]

Freya sounds like a kind person. While sealing away the rampaging demons, she also considered not harming innocent people... Dimon thought to himself, "A person who is willing to sacrifice their own life to seal away demons must be a good person. It's reasonable for them to make such a rule."

Freya's World of Song seems to be more solid than Uta's World of Song, and he plans to enter it to find out more.

How much content do we need to hum?

The words on the musical score change, and the black musical notes piece together a passage of text.

[Gah zan tak]

[With just three words, the World of Song and the spirit of the singer can be connected.]

Dimon remembered the full verse of that song, which was longer and of unclear meaning.

"What exactly does that sentence mean?" he asked curiously.

[This is an ancient rune, not everyday language; each character represents a specific meaning.]

[Details are as follows...]

[Gift, Wisdom, Trial]

[Protect, Crave, Victory]

[Flame, New Life, Forward]

The gist of the sentence is: Please lead us forward, in order to seek salvation!

Upon hearing this, Dimon couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"That's interesting. Does it have to be this line? Would humming something else work?"

[Yes, Master.]

[You gave me life, and I gained partial control over the World of Song, allowing me to modify the content of musical scores to a certain extent.]

[You can decide what kind of lyrics you want, just keep it short.]

The original lyrics are so good that most people wouldn't even be able to hum them.

If you want to use musical scores to trick someone, you must modify them into simple and easy-to-understand words and phrases.

"Then let's change it to 'Please lead us forward, so that we may be redeemed!'"

Dimon simply took out the translated content and tested its feasibility first.

Soon, he arrived at the side lounge, sat on the sofa, and recited the sentence aloud.

The next moment, my mind went blank, and my vision went black. When I regained my senses, I was in Freya's World of Song.

Unlike the World of Song created by Uta.

There are no beaches, no waves, and no singing girls here; everything before your eyes is like hell.

The crimson earth spews forth streams of lava from time to time; the world is deathly silent, stretching as far as the eye can see.

The perception of Observation Haki extends in all directions: 5 kilometers... 10 kilometers... 20 kilometers...

Dimon quickly gave up.

"Is there no border here?"

A burst of white mist exploded before his eyes, and black musical notes appeared in front of him.

The musical scores come together to form a golden saxophone.

"Master, there are boundaries here, but the area is very large."

Dimon asked in surprise, "You can talk now?"

"Only in this world is it possible; strictly speaking, I can also be the administrator here."

Where is Tot Musica?

The saxophone swayed towards the ground in response:

"Deep within the earth. Rest assured, Master, as long as the Devil Fruit User outside doesn't sing that song, the Demon King of Songs cannot move freely."

Previously, the Demon King of Songs could project a portion of his power to interfere with reality.

For example, you could send the sheet music to Uta and have her sing it to loosen the seal.

Now that the sheet music has been Animation and the administrator is online, even the Demon King of Songs can't do something like this anymore.

"I see."

Dimon nodded knowingly, showing no interest in dealing with the Demon King of Songs for the time being.

This demon is arrogant and haughty; he hasn't figured out how to deal with the other party yet, and even if he meets him now, he won't gain anything.

Soon after, Dimon discovered that he seemed to have some ability to make his wishes come true in the World of Song.

He raised his right hand, his gaze fixed on his palm. With a thought, a puff of white smoke appeared, and a Black Blade, Shusui, appeared in his hand.

This is not the real Shusui, but a fake created from the World of Songs.

The next moment, he tried to make himself fly.

The world indeed responded to his expectations; his feet slowly lifted off the ground, and he gradually flew into the sky.

Sachs also flew up and explained:

"I have transferred some permissions to you, Master. You can now modify the rules of this world to a certain extent."

After all, it's just the spiritual world, where one can do whatever one pleases.

As Dimon gazed at the sun in the sky, a thought crossed his mind, and the sun immediately went out, plunging the entire world into darkness.

A moment later, the sun reappeared, its scorching rays illuminating the hellish earth.

"A single thought can change the world..."

The power of a permission-controlled dog!

After a moment's thought, Dimon decided to test the solidity of this world first.

With that thought in mind, he channeled all his Conqueror's Haki into a single sword.

Shusui swung his sword towards the sky, and the black and red crescent-shaped sword energy shot straight towards the sun, eventually touching the boundary of the world.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, slight cracks appeared in the sky, but they were completely restored in the blink of an eye.

"Much more solid than Uta's World of Song."

Dimon nodded in satisfaction.

Even with his current Conqueror's Haki, a full-force attack couldn't break through it, which means that even a powerhouse of Harald's Rocks' level couldn't break through it alone.

As for god-level combat power beyond that, such as Imu and Joy Boy, it is currently impossible to determine.

"Let's leave first."

On the sofa, Dimon opened his eyes.

The biggest gain from this trip to Elegia wasn't finding a suitable base for the Seven Deadly Sins, but rather the sheet music.

Uta is still too inexperienced; a sheet music is much more useful.

Just then, Ain's voice echoed in my mind:

[Master, Aokiji has woken up.]

How is he doing?

[She's very weak; if she doesn't receive treatment, she'll probably die soon.]

The images simultaneously flashed through Dimon's mind.

In the dark cell, Aokiji was bound to the wall with Seastone chains. He sat cross-legged, his arms suspended by the chains.

After waking up, Aokiji looked around and exclaimed:

"Hello, is anyone there?"

Soon, footsteps sounded outside the cell. Kuranos walked to the outside of the iron cage, observed Aokiji for a moment, and praised him:

"Such tenacious vitality, truly worthy of Marine Admiral."

"Hey, we meet again. Envy, bro?"

Aokiji's lips curled slightly. "What do you want with me? Where is this place?"

He wasn't worried about his life. Since the Seven Deadly Sins had captured him instead of killing him, it meant they didn't intend to kill him.

There are no such plans at least for now.

"You don't need to know where you are. You are safe until the Lord gives you his command."

At this point, Kuranos warned, "Also, don't shout. Staying quiet is better than anything else."

"Is this the base of your Seven Deadly Sins?"

Aokiji smiled helplessly, "I'm pretty bored by myself, how about we chat?"

Kuranos simply stared at him coldly.

Aokiji remained unperturbed and continued, "I rescued two Celestial Dragons from Baltigo that you had captured. Surprisingly, that was the Revolutionary Army's stronghold. What's your relationship with the Revolutionary Army?"

No comment.

"Sigh, I can't escape anyway, and besides, I've already left the Navy, so this kind of information won't be leaked to the World Government."

"You talk too much, human."

Kuranos snorted coldly, too lazy to pay attention to Aokiji, and immediately turned to leave.

Upon seeing this, Aokiji quickly cried out, "Wait! I want to see your Lord! Only He can decide what to do with me, can't He?"

Kuranos paused slightly, then said sarcastically:

"You dare to wish to see my lord? You are utterly...!"

A voice suddenly rang out, interrupting him.

"The Lord grants your permission, Aokiji."

"Ain?"

Kuranos was taken aback and immediately shut his mouth.

Aokiji raised an eyebrow. "Ain?"

Regardless of who Ain is, Aokiji would be happy to meet the legendary Lord of the Seven Deadly Sins, as he has long been curious about this mysterious being.

"Since your master is willing to see me, could you please remove the Seastone first? To be honest, I don't need the Seastone in my current state; any one of your organization could subdue me."

This was the truth from his heart; he was so weak that he couldn't beat anyone who came at him.

No, let alone fight, he can't even stand up straight.

Ain responded calmly:

"No need. You only need to recite this prayer, and you will naturally see my Lord."

Then, he told Aokiji a prayer.

Aokiji couldn't help but feel a sense of unease.

Prayer... Could this Lord really be God?

Suppressing his doubts, he tried to slowly recite the prayer:

"The ruler who governs the Seven Deadly Sins;"

"The Demon Lord of the Abyss"
