Lin Bei shrugged and said, "It doesn't hurt. Your abilities aren't that great."
"The power of the Thunder Emperor?" Bai Ye narrowed his eyes and said, "Your ability comes from the Infinite City, doesn't it?"
A look of confusion appeared in Lin Bei's eyes. "What do you mean?"
"I see!"
Bai Ye sized up Lin Bei again.
Indeed, Yimi's description of the God Disciples was correct. After dying and being reborn as God Disciples, they would lose their original memories.
This included not only the memories of their original world but also the memories of their experiences before death in the world battlefield.
Therefore, Lin Bei didn't know the origin of his ability.
But Bai Ye did.
The Infinite City, a forbidden zone, a region combining entry-level future technology with abilities.
In the lower levels of the Infinite City, there was an organization called voLts, whose leader was known as the Thunder Emperor, an undefeated existence within the Infinite City.
Why did Bai Ye know?
Of course, it was because he had been to the Infinite City in his previous life and had even cleared the forbidden zone in the lower levels. The mission of this forbidden zone was to defeat the Thunder Emperor and his Four Heavenly Kings.
The greatest characteristic of the Thunder Emperor's lightning ability was his ability to absorb lightning to strengthen himself.
Why was the Thunder Emperor known as an undefeated existence in the Infinite City?
This was because the Infinite City was actually an abandoned future technology building. After becoming a stalled project, it became a dwelling place for refugees and the homeless.
However, despite being abandoned, the Infinite City possessed a large number of electrical facilities. The Thunder Emperor could continuously grow stronger by absorbing the electricity from the Infinite City, thus forging his undefeated legend.
The method Bai Ye used to defeat the Thunder Emperor in his previous life was actually very simple. He used mechanical reconstruction to dismantle all the machines that could discharge electricity, and then Bai Ye won.
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Lin Bei grinned and said, "But I like the title Thunder Emperor!"
As Lin Bei spoke, he raised his fist and punched towards Bai Ye.
Zzzt!
A large amount of current appeared and surged towards Bai Ye, hitting Bai Ye's chest.
Then...
Nothing happened!
Bai Ye casually reached out and brushed off the lightning on his body. "Sorry, if you are the Thunder Emperor, then I am the Thunder God!"
The moment Bai Ye finished speaking, he directly lifted his leg and swept forward.
Just like Lin Bei, it was the simplest and most direct lightning attack. A large amount of current appeared and swept forward, constantly shattering the ground before hitting Lin Bei.
Lin Bei's body was once again forced to retreat, and the current wrapped around his body gradually entered Lin Bei's body.
Bai Ye sneered dismissively.
There were actually many types of lightning abilities. In different worlds and different regions, there were similar abilities to control lightning, but although the effects of the abilities were similar, their strength was not the same.
The Thunder Emperor's ability was very strong, but it was only gold quality, and it was at the lower end of gold quality.
As for the Goro Goro no Mi...
It was of super quality!
So, how did the gap appear between similar abilities?
In fact, one could tell by looking at some details.
The greatest characteristic of the Thunder Emperor's lightning ability was his ability to absorb lightning and then strengthen himself through the conversion of electricity.
This effect seemed very strong, but during the conversion of lightning, Lin Bei would be injured. As for Bai Ye...
After elementalization, Bai Ye himself was lightning.
Could there be any lightning in this world that could harm Bai Ye?
As for absorbing lightning, since Bai Ye could turn into lightning himself, what was the problem with merging other currents?
In fact, this was not even included in the effects of the Goro Goro no Mi.
Because it was simply a matter of course.
So, if Lin Bei was truly the Thunder Emperor.
Then Bai Ye was the Thunder God!
How can a mortal fight a god?
It was quite ironic that Situ Chicheng allowed Lin Bei to find Bai Ye, mainly because Lin Bei's Thunder Emperor ability could absorb other lightning and convert it into his own lightning through electricity.
In Situ Chicheng's opinion, this might be a possibility to counter Bai Ye's ability.
Unfortunately...
Situ Chicheng misjudged!
Of course, it couldn't be entirely blamed on Situ Chicheng. Although Situ Chicheng and Bai Lu had fought Bai Ye and knew about Bai Ye's lightning abilities, they didn't know that this lightning ability came from the Goro Goro no Mi, let alone the specific effects of the Goro Goro no Mi.
...
While thinking, Bai Ye reached out forward and made a grasping motion before Lin Bei could absorb the lightning.
The next moment, the current that had not yet been absorbed suddenly became violent, spreading wildly, gradually growing larger, and finally transforming into a lightning beast that appeared before Lin Bei.
Bang!
The lightning beast raised its giant claws and swept them forcefully towards Lin Bei.
Lin Bei raised his arm to block, and was immediately sent flying, crashing towards the side and smashing through the wall of a mansion.
Bai Ye strode forward, but at this moment, a commotion could be heard from afar.
Bai Ye looked up and saw that the hunters had been attracted by the commotion and were rushing over.
But before Bai Ye could make a move against those hunters...
Zzzt, zzzt, zzzt...
The sound of crackling electricity suddenly rang out, the lights in the surrounding buildings flickered continuously, and then the sound of exploding light bulbs began to ring out.
Suddenly, a lightning bolt appeared out of nowhere and struck down towards those hunters.
In just an instant, those hunters fell to the ground, their bodies charred black, and they lost their breath.
Bai Ye looked in the direction of the collapsed wall. Lin Bei had already gotten up from the ground, his entire body emitting a white light.
"Oh?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "Thunder Emperor state?"
This time it was not a title, but an effect.
This was the Thunder Emperor's ultimate killing move. Bai Ye himself had been badly beaten by the Thunder Emperor in his Thunder Emperor state.
However...
At that time, Bai Ye was fighting the Thunder Emperor in the forbidden zone of the lower levels of the Infinite City. The Thunder Emperor could draw upon the electricity of the Infinite City.
As for Lin Bei...
Bai Ye looked at the surrounding buildings and the flickering lights.
Alright, Lin Bei had absorbed quite a bit of electricity, but how could this level compare to the Infinite City?
Lin Bei's Thunder Emperor state was a joke in Bai Ye's eyes.
"Ah!"
At this moment, Lin Bei let out a low roar and charged towards Bai Ye, his body wrapped in lightning, and he threw a punch towards Bai Ye.
Bai Ye directly ignored the punch and let Lin Bei hit him.
The next moment, Lin Bei's fist passed through Bai Ye's body.
The elementalization of the Goro Goro no Mi could indeed only immunize against pure physical attacks, but...
Lightning attacks didn't count!
However, in Lin Bei's eyes, this could not be considered his attack being invalidated. Greed appeared on his face, and he frantically absorbed the current from Bai Ye, trying to convert this current into his own power.
However...
