Thunder and lightning struck down. A rain of fire and ice rained down as an innumerable number of blue crystals penetrated, exploded, and hardened around everything.

Tan’s fighting style was overwhelming and seemingly flawless. Based on his seemingly infinite amount of mana, Tan poured hundreds of spells down on the Master level users.

“Stay on him! Don’t give him any openings!”

“Don’t die in vain! Give 100% from the start!”

“Come on, let’s start another attack! Follow me! Also, please keep the buffs coming!”

“Oh man, this guy’s so strong! This is crazy!! I’ve heard a lot about dragons, dragons this and dragons that, but it’s really no joke facing off against one!”

The Master level users weren’t pushovers. Each of them perfected their skills and abilities in their respective domains, and they were all specialists who had experienced thousands of battles.

And above all, each of them was equipped with Divine Weapons, a Master Weapon and a Master Skill.

“Operate Divine Weapons. Splinter! Final Crescent!”

A crescent moon rose over the body of Sword Master Ohje, who shot upward toward the sky like a bullet. Tan saw Ohje’s sword strike coming towards his defensive barrier, but he couldn’t stop it. This was because Ohje’s attack was a perfectly timed attack in tandem with the other Masters’ attacks, which limited his range of motion. Because of this, Tan, who saw his defensive barrier being shaved off, fired off some more blue crystals, but…

“Ha!!! Operate Divine Weapon! Giga Hulk!!!”

With a shout, Hanma, with glowing green tattoos covering his entire body, clashed against the blue crystals that were shot out toward Ohje. The crystal shrapnel from the resulting explosion merely lodged in his skin; it didn’t pierce through or tear into his body.

/Trivial things!!/

As Tan shouted in anger, he gathered strength and made dark clouds appear overhead. Tan was determined, so he exerted his strength to create an environment favorable to himself. However, though he was the one who created the present environment, someone else took advantage of it before he could.

“Operate Divine Weapon. Excalibur.”

Rumble!

A bolt of lightning fell and was sucked into Arthur’s Light Sword before being shot off as a violent lightning strike towards Tan’s defensive barrier. Though it was a relatively simple form of attack, it was still surprising that someone could utilize and take advantage of another’s magic environment so quickly and also launch a powerful attack.

Woong!

However, at that moment, thousands of crystals were fired off all around Tan, like a porcupine shooting its thorns in all directions.

“Damn it! Hide behind the tankers!”

Crack! Boom!

Ohje, who had activated his Final Crescent Master Skill, couldn’t even let out a scream before turning into particles of light. His character’s body quickly dispersed in the air. Hanma, who temporarily canceled Giga Hulk, had dozens of crystals embedded throughout his body.

The Masters’ joint action had truly amazing power, but Tan’s force was overwhelming. His defenses and resolve were unshakable, even in the face of the Masters’ joint maneuvering. The remaining Masters couldn’t help but feel a sense of nervousness, as they didn’t know if any of their actions were effective or not against Tan.

“The situation is dangerous, association president! More than a third of the Masters have already been defeated.”

“What about resurrection?”

“The gem points that Merlin provided have almost all been used up. Moreover, our collective power is plummeting because of the system’s death penalty.”

Christian Michael Bay, who was directing the entire battle while receiving reports from several other Masters, frowned.

“What happened to the support team that Arthur mentioned?”

“They’re almost here! Their estimated time of arrival is 30 seconds!”

“What about the broadcasting station?”

“There are many reporters who were already stationed near the Magic Tower, so they’ve already started filming! Also…”

Saying so, the speaker pointed to his back. Some of the personnel they had brought in were already setting up their cameras.

“… Good. We have to all work together!”

Christian was widely considered to become the next President of the United States. The reason why Christian, who was previously just another rich person, was able to become a strong presidential candidate of the United States, which can be said to be the world’s most powerful country, was because he faithfully played the role of an [American Hero].

Of course, there were others who were stronger or more powerful than him among the Master level users, and above all, there was Arthur, who was perfectly suited to being the public face of a national hero, but Arthur had risen to such a high level that the position of President of the United States seemed too limiting for a person of his stature.

‘The pool we play in is completely different between me and him.’

Christian was aiming to become the next President of the United States, which was arguably the highest political seat on Earth.

But right now… in the ongoing battle, such a politically powerful seat meant nothing. They were fighting against a being from the greater universe; a being who regarded the Earth as a planet on the margins of civilization; moreover, this being possessed godly, divine powers.

Christian knew that he wasn’t and couldn’t be the main character here. He had always looked at the world in a self-centered perspective, but right now, on the battlefield, he was just a supporting character.

‘Since this is the case… I’ll be the most perfect supporting character.’

Christian smiled and straightened his posture. From far away, more than a dozen cameras were filming him.

“Bruce Wayne.”

Once he stated his manifestation trigger phrase, Christian’s entire body was covered in black armor. Repentant Ivan’s Dark Helmet, Despairing Kara’s Gauntlet, Pained Cyril’s Boots, Hateful Alistair’s Greaves, and Saddened Adin’s Armor.

And to top it all off, there was the most famous item in DIO, the [+11 Spirit Armor], and Christian, no, Bruce, as he had now manifested and taken on his DIO character, had spent billions of dollars to complete and enhance his current set of gear.

And as human history had proven countless times… the power of money was great.

Clunk! Clunk! Woong!

The various parts of his armor interlocked with each other and moved. His full set of Spirit Armor, with each piece of the set being a Rare Rank item, became S Rank gear after all the components were gathered, and reached the SS Rank after the +11 reinforcement.

This made Bruce’s gear similar in performance to Ascalon, the dragon slaying sword currently held and used by Arthur, and Bruce was the only user who possessed gear at this level of performance. The gear was so overwhelmingly powerful that it could equal most Master Weapons in terms of force.

In addition, what he held in his hand was another one of Merlin’s masterpieces, a +10 Dark Magic Sword, so, in his gear, there was nothing that wasn’t a treasure, which even included the clothing and accessories inside his armor. Even the armor on the Black Unicorn he rode on was top notch. Moreover, each piece of gear perfectly complemented each other, which Bruce had arrived at through meticulous calculation, design, and planning, so the overall effect of his gear was more than the sum of its parts.

And on top of all that…

“Operate Divine Weapon. Dark Knight.”

Black spiritual qi rose up, covered his Spirit Armor, and created a cape-like scattering effect behind him. Dense and powerful magic power covered his entire body.

His skills weren’t the best… but they were only eclipsed by the skills of the Heaven above the Heavens.

Bruce was undoubtedly a powerful Master, but among the top-level Masters, commonly referred to as the Heavenly Beings, he possessed relatively mediocre abilities. He constantly trained and sought to become stronger, but that was the case with other top-level Masters as well.

But at this very moment…

Whoosh!

He… was undoubtedly the most powerful Master level user outside of the Heaven above the Heavens.

Boom!

“Ugh! This guy!”

When Bruce entered the scene, the tides of war shifted. The users had been on the defensive, but that position changed in an instant. Protecting himself perfectly with the SS Rank Spirit Armor, Bruce dug into Tan through a path that even Hanma and Adol, the most powerful tankers in DIO, couldn’t access and swung his Dark Magic Sword.

“With Darian’s Glorious Sword…”

Taking advantage of the gap Bruce created, Adol stepped back and began to recite a chant.

“… I protect the weak and act according to my convictions…”

Huge amounts of divine power rushed out from Adol. The divine power covered not only his Tower Shield but also the armor that covered his entire body and the sword in his hand.

“… I shall always stay humble and never lose courage…”

Even in the midst of Tan’s raging magic power storm, Adol calmly concentrated and completed his chant.

“Give me the strength to stand firm and not collapse in the face of trials…”

Adol held up his Tower Shield and moved forward with tremendous force, like a locomotive moving forward without any hesitation. The heavy momentum and aura projecting from Adol would make any opponent lose their fighting spirit. Adol had activated his Master Skill.

“Oath of Chivalry.”

Adol’s Master Skill, which was more like a kind of buff that increased all stats of its intended target by providing an enormous buff to one’s Magic Resistance and defenses, had become even more powerful than before. This was because Adol’s unwavering spirit and firm conviction grew as he continually went through and overcame agony and tribulation.

Bang!

Along with the sound of an explosion, the magic storm emitted by Tan was completely blocked. In front of Tan, light and darkness gathered and burned.

“… You guys… are quite useful.”

Arthur, who had come down behind the Master users’ formation, made a surprised expression. This was because he didn’t think that the other Masters could output such great force.

Even though all users started at Level 1… the gap between the three Irregulars and the rest of the users had widened considerably. There was a big difference between the power that could be exerted between these two groups. However, now that they were collectively facing off against a mighty common enemy, Arthur could see that their collective force was substantial and couldn’t be underestimated. Even if these other Master level users were to never reach his level of ability or skill, they were still the chosen few amongst billions of users who rose to the top because of their considerable talent.

“I haven’t forgiven you yet.”

And looking at the surprised Arthur, Adol muttered in a low voice. Even though they were fighting on the same side for all of humanity… Adol still held the belief that Arthur’s actions in Japan were wrong, as Arthur had slaughtered tens of thousands of people for his personal revenge.

“Hmpf, I see you’re still a romantic with lofty ideals. But it’s useless.”

Arthur raised his head and looked at Tan, who was emitting a huge amount of magic power.

“No one shall be in a position to even think of forgiving me.”

Instantly, Arthur’s body turned into a beam of light once more.

“Nobody.”
