The Observer was surprised.
It wasn't surprised that Law was immune to Nanika's wishing ability.
Instead, it was surprised that Jag was about to lose.
Since its birth, it had always observed the changes of everything in the world as a bystander.
After a long time, it had its own set of standards for judging combat power.
Before the battle, the reason why it asserted that Law couldn't beat Jag was because it concluded that Jag was stronger than Law from the sum of their [Energy].
However, it couldn't "see" the white smoke characters hidden in Law's soul consciousness, let alone the extremely powerful [Resentment] contained in the energy slot.
So it was wrong.
No one knew that its gaze swept past the angry Law, then it looked at Jag who was not only seriously injured but also lost his backup plan. The surprise in its big eyes quietly faded.
As for where the six continents would end up, it was of no importance to it from start to finish.
In contrast, it was more interested in Law.
Above the fireworks, the two people who were safe and sound were Staji and Melouheim.
The former was a person who came back from the dead.
The latter was Wheat's Psychic Beast, but in a sense, he was also a person who came back from the dead. In addition, he had a part of Law's Psychic power as a foundation.
Therefore, the two of them were not in the [Target Range].
Also unharmed were Pyro and Ikuxiube who were in the virtual dark continent.
Except for them, almost all the creatures in the six continents had been transformed into objects of desire.
"Law …"
Staji looked up to meet Law's gaze.
Law suppressed his anger, gave Staji a look, and then looked coldly at Jag who was full of disbelief.
Staji understood Law's meaning and turned to look at the objects of desire transformed by her companions.
All of her former companions had turned into objects of desire baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. It was enough to outline a despairing scene.
When she was close enough, she could even feel their pure intention to attack and malice.
Seven Laws of Sound, Pressure!
Staji plucked the strings, and her Psychic power moved with the sound of the zither. It was compressed into a net of Psychic power, accurately covering each object of desire, forming an unbreakable shackle.
Not far away, Melouheim looked at Staji's actions and then walked toward the central control room expressionlessly.
There was no emotion on his face, but he was a little panicked.
"Wheat …"
Just after everyone was transformed into objects of desire, his connection with Wheat was cut off.
Even if he did not want to imagine it, the manifestations of desires that were transformed by Kim and the others around him were like thousands of resonating alarm clocks, constantly reminding him to be mentally prepared to face the worst outcome.
Staji, who was focused on controlling many objects of desire, still had the energy to pay attention to Melouheim.
"I believe in Law."
Staji looked at Melouheim's back.
Even if the situation at the moment couldn't be worse, she believed that Law could restore her teammates to their original state.
This kind of trust was no choice at the moment, and it was also unreserved for Law.
High in the sky.
Jag slowly came back to his senses.
In that short moment of shock, he did not forget to throw Nanika, who had been used up, into the Space Swimming Dragon to prevent his personality from being switched to Aluja. Then, Aluja would throw out an impossible [Demand].
"You're okay."
Jag stared at Law. As he spoke, he noticed that there were two people on the Silver Flower that were not affected by [Wish].
After quickly distinguishing Staji and Melouheim's [Type], Jag suddenly understood.
"Sure enough, you are … a person who came back from the dead, so you can drive that level of 'resentment', and that's why you didn't become an object of desire, because you are not within the definition of 'creature' at all."
After figuring out the key points, Jag's expression was uncertain.
A single slip will cause eternal regret, which was the most appropriate way to describe him now.
The threat from death, like an invisible haze, slowly lingered on his body.
All the creatures in the six continents will become his nourishment.
At that time, he would have the strength to conquer the Dark Continent.
One step away.
He was only one step away from it.
He was unwilling.
He was extremely unwilling to accept this.
But he would not surrender without putting up a fight.
Jag's thoughts turned quickly, trying to find a chance of winning from the situation. In the corner of his eyes, he even thought of the desire manifestation on the Silver Flower.
However, the beautiful woman standing with the zither was like a thorn in his side at this moment, ruthlessly killing his plan.
What else could he do?
Fine beads of sweat oozed from Jag's forehead, and the previous posture of a king no longer existed.
Law stepped on the spiritual ball, held the long sword transformed by Chirp, and strode toward Jag.
Every movement was filled with killing intent that seemed to have condensed into a substance.
Seeing Law striding toward him with killing intent, Jag's heart sank to the bottom.
One wrong move, and the whole game was lost.
Jag's eyes trembled sharply.
If he had to obediently stretch out his neck and be stabbed, he might as well go all out.
Realization gradually formed.
Jag's eyes revealed a resolute look.
Giving up something, setting up restrictions, in exchange for a temporary increase in power.
This might be his only chance now.
Jag did what he thought without any hesitation.
Other than the Earth Opening Flower, he could use anything as the price, including his lifespan...
Realization and thoughts merged into one, directly affecting the telekinesis on Jag's body. Numerous black threads began to appear in the white light.
In the blink of an eye, the black threads not only became thicker, but also began to increase in number.
"Restriction and oath, huh..."
Law's eyes were cold. In a flash, his sword was like a stream of light, piercing toward Jag's face.
Along the way, he had experienced countless battles, and had also encountered enemies who used [Restriction and oath] in exchange for the power to counterattack before they died.
But now, how could he let Jag do as he wished?
He did not even waver because Yaluja and Nanika were in Jag's hands.
The long sword pierced through, mercilessly stabbing into Jag's face.
Jag's expression suddenly froze.
In the next moment, the telekinesis attached to the sword blasted Jag's head into pieces.
Then, the unconscious body lost its support and soon followed in the footsteps of the head, splitting into dozens of pieces and scattering to the ground.
After killing Jag with one strike, Law did not have the slightest joy. Instead, he frowned.
He had no clue how to restore his companions to their original state.
The only thing he could think of was still Nanika, the initiator of all this.
However, he saw with his own eyes that Jag threw Nanika into the Space of the Wandering Dragon, and Nanika completed Jag's [Request]. So, if he wanted to make another [Request], he had to first satisfy Yaluja's [Demand].
But because Jag's [Request] involved the creatures of the entire six continents, it was not difficult to foresee how exaggerated the next [Demand] would be.
But no matter what, there was still a chance to save Yaluja and Nanika first.
But the moment Jag set up [Restriction], Law, who had already used up [Resentment], had no time to think.
In order to prevent any unforeseen events, he could only temporarily put the problem of Yaluja and Nanika to the back of his mind and strike a thunderous blow to Jag.
"What should I do … …"
Law suddenly turned and looked up at the motionless Observer above.
He had no time to think about the current situation of Yaluja and Nanika, and he immediately transferred his hope to the Observer.
Just as he turned his gaze to the Observer, a powerful wave of telekinesis came from behind him.
Law's expression changed, and he turned around abruptly.
A black-red crack suddenly appeared in the air where Jag had died. It was fifty to sixty percent similar to the spatial telekinesis that Jag had used earlier.
In the crack, several vague figures that Law was familiar with appeared.
