[Marvel: I Started by Containing SCPs] Chapter 214 (Patreon)

Dan: "Reflecting all energy? Doesn't that mean there's absolutely no way to harm him?"

Tony Stark was about to respond, but a sudden realization made cold sweat drip down his face.

According to the concept of vector manipulation, if Dragon can truly reflect all energy, even the force of the world's destruction could be repelled. He might survive even the apocalypse through his own reflected destructive energy.

This thought sent a shiver down Stark's spine.

Just how terrifying is this power?!

Sage: "Theoretically, yes. No energy in the world can harm that man named Dragon."

Hearing this, many couldn't help but gasp. This revolutionary leader had inexplicably gained such a tremendous power—it was terrifying.

Aboard the Sunny

Luffy's crew stared in awe, their mouths agape. It was their first time seeing Dragon, and they were witnessing such incredible power.

"Luffy, your father is amazing!"

Usopp exclaimed in admiration.

"Really? Sounds like he's pretty strong," Luffy scratched his head.

"What kind of reaction is that? Don't you feel anything about meeting your father for the first time?"

Nami asked, puzzled.

"Nope. Even though he's my father, I don't feel anything special," Luffy said, tilting his head casually.

"Looks like you've really never met him before," Zoro remarked with a hint of understanding.

"Well, whatever. He's strong, but that doesn't have much to do with me," Luffy said nonchalantly, leaving his crewmates speechless.

At Marine Headquarters

"Damn it, Garp! Why didn't you raise your son properly, or deal with him when he first showed signs of rebellion? This whole mess could've been avoided!"

Sengoku exploded in anger, directing his frustration at Garp.

"Haha! That's my son, after all!"

Garp, however, wasn't angry. Instead, he burst into laughter, tears streaming down his face.

No matter what Dragon had become—criminal or revolutionary—to Garp, he was still his precious son. Seeing Dragon's strength filled Garp with pride, even as it pained him to see him standing on the opposite side.

"You fool!"

Sengoku pushed Garp away in exasperation. As an old friend, he understood Garp's feelings, but it only made him more frustrated.

"Increase Monkey D. Dragon's bounty!"

Sengoku ordered, though he immediately regretted it. Who could possibly capture Dragon now?

"How are we supposed to catch someone like him? Reflecting all energy means we can't even get close," Kizaru said with a touch of helplessness.

The other two Admirals looked equally grim.

For years, their pride had been in their strength. But now, learning that their power was useless against someone crushed their egos and left them seething.

"Damn it! Isn't there any way to capture him?"

Akainu growled, his body emanating steam as magma bubbled with his frustration.

"Perhaps someone from another universe might have a solution," Aokiji mused, glancing at the screen.

His words left many unsure of how to respond.

Sage: "There's no need to panic. Every power has its limits. Although Dragon's ability to reflect energy is terrifying, it depends on his physical and mental strength. If he's not strong enough, he won't achieve complete energy reflection."

Garp: "Hey, let me tell you, my son is plenty strong! The Navy and government haven't been able to catch him for years!"

Sengoku: "Stop undermining us!"

Sage: "Any power comes at a cost. Even if Dragon can reflect all energy, it likely consumes stamina or energy. There will be a point where he can't maintain it."

Aokiji: "So the options are to overwhelm him with uncontrollable force or wear him out until he's too exhausted to fight."

Sage: "That's correct. Those are the only viable approaches."

Akainu sneered. "Simple. Just keep attacking him relentlessly, and we'll find his breaking point."

"And how many comrades or civilians are you willing to sacrifice for that?"

Aokiji shot back, displeased.

"Facing the most dangerous criminal, sacrifices are necessary to uphold justice," Akainu retorted, glaring at Aokiji.

"Reckless sacrifice is not justice," Aokiji countered, their gazes clashing like sparks in the air.

Kizaru wisely stepped aside, avoiding the brewing storm.

Sengoku couldn't help but notice Aokiji's recent defiance toward Akainu. Ever since gaining absolute zero abilities, Aokiji had been more open in opposing Akainu.

This internal discord worried Sengoku deeply.

In the Saint Seiya LC Universe

At the Sanctuary.

"Haha, Master, don't you think your advice might disrupt their world? It could jeopardize their hope of overthrowing the Celestial Dragons' tyranny."

Manigoldo chuckled mischievously at Sage.

As one of the Golden Saints, only he dared tease the Pope like this.

"Perhaps. But if Dragon truly has what it takes, he won't be deterred by these challenges. Besides, I didn't reveal the most critical solution," Sage replied with a faint smile.

"Those Celestial Dragons are disgusting. They're no better than pigs, claiming to be gods. Thankfully, Sasha isn't like them," Cardia quipped, laughing.

"You idiot! Don't joke about Lady Athena!"

Degel punched Cardia's head and forced him to bow to Sasha in apology.

"I'm sorry, Lady Athena. This fool only knows how to spout nonsense!"

"It's fine," Sasha replied, though her gaze was somber as she looked at the screen.

Her world, too, had its share of tyrants who treated lives like dirt. It was the existence of such people that caused countless others to live in suffering.

As a goddess tasked with protecting the earth, Sasha couldn't help but wonder if it was right to stand idly by while humanity committed such atrocities.

Sage watched Sasha's conflicted expression, easily guessing what was on her mind.
