Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2379

Chapter 2379 The Strongest Rival This guy was strong. Perhaps stronger than anyone Levi had seen. Simply put, he was the strongest rival Levi had ever met. Among the fighters Levi had seen so far, none of them could be considered a worthy rival. Well, a few of them could be if he lowered his standards by a lot. The original Dark Emperor could be counted as one, and Forlevia's masters were on his shortlist of worthy rivals as well. They were already the top fighters in the whole wide world. Edmund and the divine generals didn't even make the list. They were too weak for him. Oh, and those guys at The Manifest Court. They're powerful as well. Levi had scanned them, but the energy waves they emitted were weak. It was little better than an ordinary human, but he knew those guys were more than meets the eye. However, they still didn't pose any threat to him. The guy who showed up before him, however, were leagues about the fighters in The Manifest Court. His power was nothing to be sneezed at. This guy was stronger than Dark Emperor and Forlevia's masters, making him Divine Leaderboard's bona fide number one, according to Levi. But Levi did not know this fighter who showed up before him. He was a middle-aged gentleman in a green robe, and though Levi did not know him, the man looked familiar on closer inspection. This guy looks similar to someone, but who is it? Hmm... Oh, right! Edmund! So this guy is the divine brigadier? The boss of The Cardinal Hall. So we finally meet. But why did he come here? Just to see me? Wait, I'm Dark Emperor now, so is this guy the original's nemesis? So that's the guy who banned Dark Emperor from ever stepping into Erudia. The same guy she feared so much. The reason why she wanted to get those weapons. The divine brigadier was powerful. Really powerful. If anyone else was in his presence, they'd quiver just by having a feel of his strength alone. Even the original Dark Emperor could only go against him with Terra Blade and Skyward Sword in hand. This is the true top fighter of the nation. Edmund, you're leagues under your old man. “You should not have come,” the divine brigadier said. But instead of saying anything, Levi replied with a single punch. He was not interested in the history between the divine brigadier and the original Dark Emperor. Now that the guy was getting in his way, all Levi had to do was clear the obstacle. The divine brigadier was shocked, for he never expected Levi to make such a sudden attack. However, he quickly defended himself with his arms, and the air swirled around him, forming a visible shield to block Levi's attack. Crack! However, the shield didn't last long. The divine brigadier heard the sound of something cracking, then the shield broke into little pieces, and the punch broke through. The divine brigadier was sent toppling backward, leaving deep footprints with every step he took, and it cracked the ground. The divine brigadier could not believe what he had just seen. Is this even the same Dark Emperor I know? One punch... One punch and I was sent toppling back. Impossible. How is this possible? If it was in the past, Dark Emperor was a lot weaker than the divine brigadier. Thanks to that, Dark Emperor never had the courage to step into Erudia until today. Because of that, she committed all those crimes just so she could make her return without having to fear for her life. Everything she did, she did to counter the divine brigadier. The divine brigadier thought she stood no chance unless she had Terra Blade and Skyward Sword in her possession, but now he couldn't believe Dark Emperor defeated him with a single punch. This is not possible! Wait, is that why there are more stories about Dark Emperor's battles now? Everyone was making Dark Emperor out to be some insanely powerful combat machine. The divine brigadier didn't think too much about it, but after getting that punch, he had to believe it whether he liked it or not. For some reason, Dark Emperor managed to power up to an insane level. One that even he had to face with caution. “Very well then. I see you have improved a lot. Then, I shall face you with everything I have. Do not hold back, or you will die.” The divine brigadier found his bearing and unleashed his true power. A moment ago, he was only human, but now he was like a sun that was shining down at Levi. The air around him felt like the hottest blazes on earth, threatening to burn everyone and everything in its way. The divine brigadier looked like he had the power of the stars in his hands, and that alone was already terrifying enough. The Solaris Energy emitted by the divine brigadier alone felt far more powerful than Skyward Sword's. In other words, this man alone was more powerful than the top divine tool. But even after the divine brigadier showed his power, Levi didn't seem to feel the least bit frightened. Once again, he hurled a punch at the divine brigadier. When their attacks clashed, everything around them was broken and reduced into atoms. The earth itself cracked, and the skies rumbled. The waves from that clash almost ripped the ozone layer in half, revealing the planet to the void.a
