Black holes possess infinite gravity. With enough energy, they can devour light itself—swallowing the sun, entire star systems, and crushing them all into oblivion.
Yet for most people, this power feels distant and unreal. Unlike the burn of fire or the cut of a blade, few have ever even seen a black hole, let alone experienced one.
But Angel Leng was different.
A veteran angel warrior of tens of thousands of years, she had survived countless interstellar wars. She had witnessed planets die, civilizations collapse, and yes—she had even seen the horror of a black hole firsthand.
Not to mention, she had just relived the memory where that scumbag Hua Ye used the black hole engine to slaughter everyone. Even the mighty King of Angels Hexi perished in one. Angel Leng understood its terror better than anyone.
"Analyzing the chat group announcement… the strongest attack in the One Piece world only destroy an island. If the god-slayer Luo Hao can really enhance the ability to create black holes, doesn't that mean her strengthened artifact will surpass even the technology of Karl, the God of Death?"
She muttered to herself, suppressing the urge to claim her newcomer reward, and waited patiently for Luo Hao's results.
World of the Campione.
Luo Hao gazed at the Dark-Dark Fruit in her hand. Even for her, a god-slayer and demon king, this was rare enough to make her tense.
This was a gift entrusted to her by fellow god-slayer Scathach. If she failed to enhance it, she would be ridiculed endlessly by those bad women in the chat group—Uchiha Miyuki and Kasumigaoka Utaha—and her pride as a demon king would not allow that!
"Erica! Liliana!"
Luo Hao called out, her voice commanding yet calm.
"I will take a bath, change clothes, and burn incense."
"Yes, King!"
The two loyal knights—Erica Blandelli and Liliana Kranjčar—moved quickly, preparing everything with flawless precision.
Luo Hao had been "training" them recently, supposedly to training their serving skills… or in their minds, to prepare them as the future wives of Jaeger.
When Luo Hao emerged, elegant and refreshed, the two girls noticed the strange, swirling fruit in her hand.
"King… is this another item for Mr. Jaeger?" Liliana asked, voice trembling slightly.
"No," Luo Hao shook her head. "This one belongs to a friend… but she received it only because of Jaeger."
"A gift… from Mr. Jaeger?" Erica blinked in awe.
"Its power releases gravity comparable to a black hole," Luo Hao explained casually, deliberately leaving out the weaknesses.
"It can neutralize an enemy's strength and render them immune to all harm."
The girls' eyes widened.
"S-Sealing the power of a god…?!"
In their world, the strength of a god-slayer was already godlike. To seal such power was terrifying. And to give such a treasure away casually? That spoke volumes about Jaeger's status.
Perhaps… he was an ancient god-slayer hidden in the world for millennia. No wonder Leader Luo Hao, who had been stagnant for years, suddenly became stronger—slapping the Norse God-King Odin and the Wolf God into oblivion in mere seconds, and even defeating the Marquis Voban and the King of Swords with ease.
Erica and Liliana exchanged a look.
To become the wives of such a legendary figure… any previous grievances or hesitations melted away. Even being a mistress to such a man was an honor.
"Well," Erica said, standing tall with a smirk, "King definitely likes me more."
At just fifteen, her beauty and figure already outshone most grown women. Noble elegance, perfect proportions, and blonde radiance—it was no wonder men dreamed of her.
Liliana, the silver-haired traditional knight, glanced down at her "flat" chest, instantly depressed.
"…Maybe he prefers a more… slender type?" she whispered, face red.
"Pfft!" Erica laughed outright, looking at her friend with a hint of pity.
Liliana gritted her teeth, gripping her sword in frustration but restraining herself in Luo Hao's presence.
"Enough, you two," Luo Hao said, amused, as she placed the Dark-Dark Fruit into the enhancement furnace.
"Jaeger is… a generous man. He likes both the rich and the poor. In other words, you're starting on equal footing."
"Is that so?!" Liliana's eyes lit up as her self-confidence revived.
"Tch…" Erica merely snorted, but her inner fire burned. The war of subtle affection had begun.
Meanwhile, in the chat group, all eyes—Angel Leng, Kasumigaoka Utaha, Esdeath, and the others—were locked on Luo Hao's strengthening process.
After all, her previous +12 enhancements had already created miracles:
Vajrapani Technique (+12): granted her the power of three heads and six arms, skyrocketing her combat ability.
Tears of the Goddess (+12): gifted to Jaeger, bringing world-ending floods and world-saving nectar.
If the Dark-Dark Fruit—already terrifying on its own—reached +12…
Even an angel who had seen black holes trembled in anticipation.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, Luo Hao finally spoke up in the chat.
Luo Hao: [Gift Box] "Phew… Mission accomplished. Honestly, I was sweating bullets when I hit the 11th enhancement. Strengthening it to +12 was way more nerve-wracking than killing a heretic god!"
Uchiha Miyuki: "No way! Luo Hao-san actually pulled it off?! [Shock.jpg]"
Kasumigaoka Utaha: "Wow… guess we can't call Luo Hao unlucky anymore. Her luck just skyrocketed."
Yamamoto Mei: "…Wait—no! Hold on, Mei. I can't hand my Zanpakutō over to Luo Hao for enhancement. I need to stop myself. I might feel bad about it for a while… but if it ends up breaking, I'd regret it for decades."
Luo Hao: "..."
Jibril: "Well, it's +12. The effect is insane! Who wouldn't be tempted to throw their weapon in for a shot at that?"
Sawamura Eriri: "So what did you get? Tell us already, I'm dying of curiosity!"
Angel Leng: "Same here. Once I see the result, I might even report this whole chat group to Queen Keisha. Maybe she'll let me do an energy or item exchange like Esdeath did."
Scathach: "Relax. Everyone in this chat group is a friend. We usually don't hide abilities from each other. Esdeath just had a moment of hesitation last time. [Picture]"
Angel Leng: "I see… thanks."
Esdeath: "Heh, a fair trade anyway. Angel Leng fed my curiosity, and I got a power-up crystal. But—holy hell!—this +12 enhancement is ridiculous!"
Scathach then posted the updated stats of the Dark Fruit:
Dark Fruit +12
Black Hole – Generates a miniature black hole with gravity ten times stronger than before, capable of pulling in and crushing anything.
Dark Domain – Unleashes a 100-meter dark field that seals enemy abilities, Noble Phantasms, and mental techniques. (Effectiveness depends on the target's strength.)
Logia form – Allows the user to turn their body into darkness and absorb damage. (Pain is still felt. If absorbed damage exceeds tolerance, pain is doubled.)
Uchiha Miyuki: "Holy crap! That's busted! Absolutely nuts!"
Yamamoto Mei: "So this is +12, huh…? A fake black hole became a real micro black hole. Ability sealing went from touch-based to full-area. And now it can even have a logia form… terrifying."
Esdeath: "…I kinda regret not going all in. I should've let Luo Hao push my Ice Dragon Fruit to +12."
Karuizawa Kei: "I wonder if the Sun Fire Mr. Jaeger gave me can be enhanced too…"
Sawamura Eriri: "Probably better not. It's already insane. Imagine if it broke."
Karuizawa Kei: "…True. Even if Mr. Jaeger gave me another one, the first gift is special to me. I can't risk it."
Uchiha Miyuki: "…Still jealous of Kei-chan being spoiled by a big boss. When's someone gonna give me a cheat-tier ability?"
Yamamoto Mei: "…Lazy freeloader."
Angel Leng: "Unreal… so +12 really makes you this strong? Micro black holes, domain sealing… Did Scathach just surpass Jaeger?"
Tōsaka Sakura: "Eh? Really? Did Scathach-san get stronger than Jaeger-nii?"
Scathach: "No. I've been close to him—I know what level he's reaching. High mysteries are useless against even higher mysteries. I bet even my Dark Domain wouldn't work on Jaeger."
Angel Leng: "…Makes sense. He's practically a star-eating monster. His life level is way beyond what we can comprehend."
Sawamura Eriri: "Yeah. And even if your black hole is crazy, it won't work on Mr. Jaeger—he can stop time for 9 seconds~ You do know what that means, right?"
Angel Leng: "Jaeger… can stop time?!"
Kocho Shinobu: "Wait, seriously? Mr. Jaeger can time-stop like Utaha-san? How did I not know?"
Uchiha Miyuki: "STOP TIME?! My favorite 18+ ability! Oi, when's His Highness Jaeger showing it off?"
Sawamura Eriri: "Eh? You guys seriously didn't know?"
Jaeger: "It's a bloodline ability from the Ōtsutsuki ancestors: Space and Time. I guess I never mentioned it."
Esdeath: "…Terrifying."
Scathach: "Seems I still underestimated Jaeger. He's truly… magnificent. The Ōtsutsuki were founders of the Naruto world, beings that devour planets and bend space-time. It's extraordinary."
Angel Leng: "…I'll head out for now. After I get my newbie reward, I'll share it in the group."
In the super seminary World, Angel Leng exited the chat group with a conflicted expression.
She spread her wings, and in a flash, she shot across the sky at ten percent the speed of light.
Moments later, she landed in the private back garden of King Hexi, where Queen Keisha was also present.
"...Leng?"
Steam rose from the hot spring, partially veiling Keisha's figure. She blinked in surprise—seeing the Frost God of War appear so suddenly, without the slightest formality, was completely out of character.
Hexi, soaking beside her, tilted her head with a lazy stretch. Her voice was calm but sharp:
"Based on my spatial calculations… Leng must have encountered an event capable of impacting the entire Angelic Civilization."
"Oh?"
Keisha's interest immediately piqued.
"Queen Keisha… King Hexi…"
Realizing how impulsively she had barged in, Leng composed herself and spoke with proper respect:
"Do you… believe in the existence of the Multiverse?"
