Chapter 341: Might
Su Xiao's fireball swelled and contracted for a few dozen seconds before finally turning into a miniature fireball.
After it shrank in size, it began to throb dangerously, and this scared even Kizara.
The ripples started to build up and anyone could tell that something had gone wrong, and Su Xiao's expression quickly changed.
He made a few mistakes.
The shape of the bomb began to change rapidly, and it was no longer round.
*Crackle!..*
Sweat poured down Su Xiao's forehead like a river, and his mana began to disappear at a very dangerous rate.
— Veins appeared on Su Xiao's forehead and neck. If it wasn't for his physique and constitution, he probably wouldn't be able to suppress the changes in this fireball right now.
— What happened, you made a mistake?
— Yes.
— So do we need to run or not?
— Not yet, stop, let's run!
Kizaru immediately grabbed Su Xiao and Vegapunk, then quickly ran away.
Because he was too fast, Su Xiao couldn't discern anything. The only thing he could see was an incredibly bright flash of light behind him.
Earlier, the small fireball turned into a truly huge sun with a diameter of 300 meters, and when the edges of this sun crashed into the walls, they literally began to melt.
*BOOM!*
Su Xiao's ears rang.
Once at a safe distance, the trio looked up at the magnificent little sun.
After everything calmed down, they saw a crater 300 meters wide and meters deep 200.
Kizaru's face was covered in cold sweat. Fortunately, he didn't question the power of this bomb and immediately used all his strength.
— This power... Vegapunk was smiling as if he'd just seen an incredible treasure.
— Fortunately, it only worked at a third of its real power, " Su Xiao said as he wiped the dust off his face. — We need to change the location and try again.
— Kizaru looked at Su Xiao in surprise.
— What's the matter, Admiral Borsalino?
— Nothing, " Kizaru said and shook his head, deciding that he should not let Su Xiao near any Marine Patrol bases in the future. If this bomb was dropped on any of the bases... The consequences will be too horrifying!
If Su Xiao didn't make two mistakes now, then he would be able to see the real power of this bomb.
— We can go to a spare shelter, it meets the requirements.
Kizaru was speechless after hearing Vegapank's suggestion. If the emergency shelter was blown up, Sengoku would definitely be furious at such a waste of money.
— Good idea, this time everything will go as it should.
Vegapunk led the way, with Su Xiao and the Admiral following close behind.
The backup shelter was smaller than the main one, but it met all the requirements.
Su Xiao took out another batch of materials for the bomb and started creating it again.
Kizaru, on the other hand, was alert and kept a close eye on the process. The last explosion was too terrible, and this is taking into account the fact that it was not a full-fledged detonation.
A blinding fireball once again appeared above Su Xiao's palm. This time it looked smoother and more stable.
Past experience had obviously taught him a lot.
As the fireball began to swell and narrow again, Kizaru prepared to grab the two scientists and run.
If the bomb goes off, Kizaru won't die, but Vegapunk and Su Xiao won't be able to survive..
If they died, his status as an admiral would be forgotten.
After half an hour of nerves, Su Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
— Done.
A flaming sphere the size of an apple floated above Su Xiao's palm.
This bomb looked like it could melt anything with just a touch, but it actually had a temperature slightly higher than the human body.
— Is this the Wrath of Apollo? Vegapunk was surprised by the size of the bomb. He hadn't expected it to be so small.
— That's right, it's the Wrath of Apollo, " Su Xiao said, and began to play with the bomb like it was a normal ball.
Kizaru's heart almost stopped when he saw this. "Dr. Byakuya, please put down the bomb, it's too dangerous.
— Now everything is fine, it is unstable only during the creation process. It won't explode until it receives the appropriate command, " Su Xiao said and pinched the balloon. It was surprisingly soft.
— Hey, watch out.
— Byakuya, please calm down.
Kizaru and Vegapunk stepped back, looking at Su Xiao as if he was crazy.
Su Xiao decided to leave it at that and checked the characteristics of the bomb.
[Wrath of Apollo.
Quality: Purple.
Type: Bomb.
Effect: Consumes 1 Mana point to activate, can be activated within 2 kilometers.
When detonated, it will deal 6.000 points of damage within a half-kilometer radius and 2,000 points of damage with gradual fire damage..
Reminder: Detonation takes 30 seconds.
Rating: 143.
Description: The dignity of the Sun God cannot be doubted!]
The damage was huge, but unfortunately, the detonation time was too long.
Someone fast enough will be able to get out of the danger zone in 30 seconds, or even be able to get out of the bomb's range altogether.
Su Xiao threw the bomb to Kizar and headed for the exit of the shelter.
— Byakuya, we need to discuss something later, " Vegapunk said and looked at Su Xiao.
He nodded in agreement.
Kizaru, on the other hand, had a grim expression on his face. He could clearly see a third of the bomb's power, and right now, he couldn't even imagine how powerful the explosion would be if the bomb was activated normally.
Together with the bomb, Kizaru immediately went to report on the creation of such a bomb to the World Government, but first of all he will tell Sengoku about it.
After returning to the lab, Su Xiao leaned back in his chair. After two attempts at creation, he was very tired.
Although this bomb was surprisingly strong, Su Xiao knew that he wouldn't be able to create many of them.
Such bombs were best suited for destroying large targets, such as fortresses and so on.
Not to mention how much it cost to build such a bomb... Soul crystals alone were considered a very rare commodity even in the Reincarnation Paradise.
Given the rating of this bomb and its characteristics, Su Xiao could tell that he would be able to sell it in Paradise for fifty thousand coins at least.
If you take into account only the materials to create, it will take him twenty-five thousand dollars for one such bomb. The difficulty of creating this bomb was on a completely different level.
Instead of creating one such bomb, Su Xiao would rather create ten supreme bombs. Although they were dozens of times weaker, they were very practical and cost very little to create, especially when compared to the cost of creating the Wrath of Apollo.
Even if Apollo's Wrath dealt 100,000 damage, it didn't make sense if that damage didn't reach the target.
Such bombs would show their full potential only in large-scale wars.
After about five minutes, Su Xiao fell asleep in his chair while Kizaru and the new bomb were rapidly moving away from the island.
When Su Xiao woke up, he found a sword on the table.
After examining it, he nodded. Although this item wasn't certified by Heaven and Su Xiao couldn't take it out of this world, it didn't matter, for he still planned to feed it to Dragon Flash.
But he'll do that before he leaves. Now the time has not come yet.
