Chapter 538 I shouldn't say, I really shouldn't!
Zeus stared at the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian in William's hand, frowning and asking, "What did you say this sword is?"
William sneered, "The Sword of the Abyssal Guardian! You're not telling me you don't recognize it, are you?"
Athena murmured softly, "This sword indeed looks like the legendary Sword of the Abyssal Guardian."
"So what if you wield this divine sword?" Zeus huffed, "William, are you trying to threaten me? This operation against the Shapeshifters and demons is a joint decision made by the high-ranking divine kings of the Divine Alliance. Even if the sea god Poseidon himself came to borrow someone, it wouldn't be allowed!"
"When did you get so close to the Sea God Poseidon that he would lend you the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian?" Zeus, completely missing the point, laughed, "Since you've borrowed the sword, why not let us take a look?"
In just a few sentences, Zeus not only successfully changed the subject to avoid the previous awkwardness but also attempted to get a closer look at the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian.
William was fuming with anger. Has this guy become senile or what?
How can he not understand what I'm saying?
William put away the Sword of the Abyssal Guardian and clenched his fist, saying, "Forget it, I'll just beat you up first! You talk too much."
Zeus's eyes shimmered, and the stars near the floating island shone brightly. His aura became mysterious and profound, as if ethereal voices were echoing, "William, do you really think I'm still the same Zeus from hundreds of thousands of years ago?"
William's eyes narrowed slightly, and he threw a punch directly.
Under that punch, the myriad of stars that seemed eternal instantly dimmed, and Zeus's energy shield was shattered by the force.
"Pfft!"
Without any surprise, Zeus was struck in the face by William's punch.
Under the cover of William's fist, all divine techniques and secret arts turned into illusions.
The mighty King of Gods, Zeus, was knocked to the ground, appearing as frail as a mere mortal.
William then kicked him twice more, looking down from above, muttering, "King of Gods, Zeus, right?"
"Not the same Zeus from hundreds of thousands of years ago, huh?"
"Acting tough in front of me!"
...
Athena watched, utterly dumbfounded.
She remembered William the Obliterator being formidable, but not to this extent!
Knocking Zeus down with a single punch?
Leaving him without the strength to even defend himself.
Athena slowly turned her head away, pretending she saw nothing.
She was already recalculating William the Obliterator's power in her mind.
After three minutes of ruthless beating, William ended the assault with a kick and asked again, "I'll ask you one last time, will you lend him to me or not?"
Zeus was a mess, with disheveled hair, torn clothes, and a face covered in bruises. To the uninformed, it might look like he had been in a street brawl.
"William, is this how you ask to borrow someone? This is robbery!" Zeus was almost in tears. During the tens of thousands of years William was away from the Divine Realm, he had diligently pondered the cosmic truths, increasing his strength countless times over.
Yet, compared to William, the gap seemed even wider.
Despite being revered by all living beings and the king of the Olympian gods, he was brutally beaten by William, his divine powers rendered useless.
William coldly stated, "If I say it's borrowing, then it's borrowing!"
Zeus, sitting on the ground, waved his hand with a resigned laughter, "If you say it's borrowing, then borrow as long as you like."
Is this what you call borrowing?
It's more polite than robbery.
"Since you've agreed, come with me. You tell him yourself." With a wave of his hand, William and Zeus suddenly appeared before Dionysus.
Dionysus was still trying to adjust to his new appearance and identity. Seeing Zeus suddenly appear before him, his rotund body stood frozen in place, unsure of what to do.
"Zeus... What happened?"
Seeing Zeus with a face full of bruises and his clothes in disarray, Dionysus was at a loss for words.
Zeus looked as if he had been violently assaulted.
William's punches weren't that simple,even a high-ranking divine king couldn't immediately heal from injuries inflicted by him.
Zeus: "..."
He never imagined that William would actually bring him before Dionysus.
Where does that leave his dignity as the King of Gods?
William laughed, "Sorry for embarrassing you in front of your subordinate."
Just as Jed hoped to see William get beaten up, William found some joy in Zeus losing face in front of his subordinate.
Zeus gave Dionysus a look and coughed lightly, asking, "How did you end up like this?"
After finishing his question, both glanced at William and then shared a bitter smile.
Was there even a need to ask?
It was William's doing.
"Now he's made me change my name to Bob Stone and even gave me a nickname, Blob."
"Blob, from now on, whatever this respected Mr. Johnson asks you to do, just do it." Zeus didn't want to say much more; any more would bring tears.
The mighty King of Gods, beaten black and blue, and now his guardian deity knew about it. If this got out, wouldn't it be a laughingstock?
Bob Stone swallowed hard, truly questioning if his eyes and ears were deceiving him.
His own boss had been beaten up.
And Zeus was calling William the respected Mr. Johnson? Telling him to follow William's orders completely.
So, what exactly was the identity of this person who claimed to be a disciple of the Sea God Poseidon?
"I understand," Bob initially thought Zeus would stand up for him, but it now seemed that Zeus was no match for William.
If Zeus wasn't his match, then he must be a being more powerful than a high-ranking divine king.
William the Obliterator, more powerful than a high-ranking divine king, confirmed!
"William, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now." Zeus just wanted to leave immediately.
William nodded, "Go ahead."
After receiving William's response, Zeus, before leaving, said to Bob, "Bob, do well working with Mr. Johnson! It's promising."
Bob felt as though he had switched leaders and couldn't help but ask, "What about the Divine Alliance...?"
Zeus laughed, "My relationship with Mr. Johnson is good, don't worry, I'll handle this."
"..."
With the old leader having given his instructions, Bob really didn't know what else to say. Apart from working well with William, what else could he do?
"Everything's been made clear, so I'll be going now." Zeus also knew that Bob likely wouldn't spread the word about him being beaten up by William the Obliterator, as William wasn't the type to boast about such things. As long as no one else saw it, it might as well not have happened.
After speaking, Zeus disappeared from Blizzard City.
In just that short time, Athena had already gone to Demeter's to enjoy some fruit.
"Did you know? Just now, Zeus got beaten up?"
"Hmm? Beaten up? Did Poseidon do it?"
"Hahaha! I shouldn't say! I shouldn't say!"
After Athena left, Demeter went to chat with Aphrodite, and after a while, they got to the juicy part.
"Aphrodite, did you hear? Poseidon beat up Zeus!"
"Ah?" Aphrodite looked puzzled, "Why would the Sea God Poseidon hit him?"
"Um, according to Athena, it seems like Zeus... tsk tsk!"
"Oh! I get it! Didn't Zeus go around chasing women again? Did he go after one of Poseidon's female disciples this time?"
"I shouldn't say, I really shouldn't!"
