Floating in space, Kaito easily destroyed this decoy fleet and quickly returned to the Royal carrier.
On board the Royal carrier, some people were worried about Kaito, others were shocked.
Those who had doubted him were starting to trust him.
In this vast universe, some planets specialized in magic, some in technology, and there were also ordinary fantasy worlds and low-level cultivation worlds.
But someone like Kaito, who could casually pull out a moon-sized meteorite to destroy a fleet, was a first for them.
It was simply too powerful, too exaggerated!
"Kaito, you worked hard."
Sephie had always believed in Kaito.
Not only could he easily defeat the enemy, but he would also come out unscathed.
A meteorite the size of the moon could not only destroy a fleet, but also a planet the size of Saturn.
As long as the speed was high enough and the mass was great enough, it could shatter a planet upon impact.
With even higher speed and mass, Jupiter might be worth a try.
"Cough, search for the next enemy direction."
Kaito enjoyed Sephie's embrace, patted her lightly, and then gave the order to the chief commander.
Soon, the next enemy direction was located. Although it was far, their beam cannons could still reach it.
But reaching was one thing; the enemy had energy shields that could hold for a while, giving them time to reposition.
However...
Kaito didn't care about that. He teleported directly to the target location and pulled out the Holy Spear, Rhongomyniad.
The enemy was lined up, so he charged it up. A golden energy torrent streaked through space, instantly erasing the entire line of enemy ships.
"Chief Commander! The Third Group... completely annihilated!"
"Damn it!! This damn New Emperor! Why is he so powerful!!!!"
The man called Chief Commander was in the command room of the mothership.
He was observing Kaito while planning the battlefield.
This 'New Emperor' was the new Overlord of the Universe.
Initially, many of them looked down on Kaito because he was too unknown.
Gid had earned his reputation through countless battles. He had a certain standing before entering combat.
But what about Kaito?
He appeared out of nowhere, parachuting directly into the position of Overlord of the Universe. Who would accept that?
Of course, the rebels wouldn't stop just because they didn't accept him. Faced with enormous interests, they had to carve out their own territory from the surrounding star systems!
Especially since they had allied with various other factions, aiming to slowly dismantle the vast power of the Overlord of the Universe!
They would each become rulers of their own star systems, kings and emperors, rather than being reduced to subordinate lords, forced to pay tribute in vast amounts of resources every year!
"Chief Commander, another group... completely annihilated! Please give new orders!"
"Instruct all other fleets to retreat via space jump! Pull back to the position of the Star Ring Arena and meet them there!"
"Yes sir!"
After giving the order, the Chief Commander opened communications to contact their allies at the Star Ring Arena.
Their interception had failed, and their attrition plan had also failed.
They could only retreat first, then defend and snipe from the position of the asteroid ring.
However...
The Chief Commander wasn't too worried. Even though they had lost a lot this time, and the lord would definitely strip him of his position, as long as they annihilated Kaito's five fleets at the Star Ring Arena position, that would be enough!
Especially if they killed the New Emperor!
Hehehe...
Using their intelligence advantage, the enemy only knew about the original thirty-something ships belonging to the lord.
But since they had allies, they had formed a deep cooperation and alliance before the war started, secretly gathering together to crush the New Emperor's fleet!
Although they initially thought the New Emperor would arrive with thousands of carriers and battleships, it didn't matter as long as the New Emperor was there!
If the New Emperor died again, Sephie wouldn't be able to find a new husband and a powerful Overlord so quickly. This would throw the entire universe into chaos!
Ten thousand ships against just over sixty. How could they lose?
They were originally planning to take out a thousand ships. Who knew the New Emperor would be so arrogant, thinking the lord only had a few dozen ships!
"Hahahahaha!!"
Thinking about this, as the carrier began its space jump, he couldn't help but laugh excitedly.
Next, as long as he took the New Emperor's life, he could leap to the top!
Replace the lord himself!!!
"Your Majesty, they've all retreated via space jump."
"Oh? They can escape under these circumstances?"
"..."
The chief commander didn't dare explain the reason.
He could only say that because Kaito had ordered them not to attack, only to defend, the enemy could retreat quickly without any pressure.
Otherwise, if they wanted to retreat under their watch, they would have to sacrifice a few ships first.
"I know what you want to say, but... I actually wanted them to do this. Where can they run to?"
"Of course, if they truly run, abandoning even their own territory, I'd have nothing to say. But if they're just retreating to a prepared trap..."
"Heh…"
Kaito started laughing coldly.
He only brought five fleets to make them careless.
Additionally, by showing some strength, he forced them to retreat. They must have gathered other rebel forces somewhere long ago to prepare an ambush.
But...
"Continue forward. I'm sure they've prepared a big feast for us."
"...Your Majesty, if we just fight in this region, we can easily annihilate them. But if we really go into their defensive positions, we might face heavy losses! I cannot give such an order!"
"Oh? Quite stubborn. But do you think I need your permission?"
With a point of his finger, the chief commander was frozen in place.
He meant well, knowing that advancing deep into enemy territory was very dangerous, requiring more ships for an attack.
It was like besieging a city; you needed several times the enemy's forces.
But did Kaito need them?
Not at all. They were just transport and recording tools!
"Transmit my order! Advance deep! Even open a path into the Arena Galaxy!!"
