Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 754: The rage

But the power and numbers were overwhelming. And there was no hope once the third big soul eater entered their dimension through the door. It soon entered the fray between the dragon and the soul eaters.

The battle tilted in the favor of the soul eaters. The dragon flew at it and swung its claws on the soul eaters with it's sharp long claws but there were only 4 of it in its body. It needed more claws to deal with the soul eaters that had clung to its body.

The dragon intended to reach Jiang Nan as her soul was sucked away slowly but it was too late!! Jiang Nan died with tears on her eyes as she looked at the protector struggling. She wanted to help her protector but she couldn't. She used her martial arts to free herself by moving her legs high up but the tentacles didn't allow her to do so.

She was struck and soon she realised that the soul was being taken away by the soul eater. Though she could feel it, there was no pain. She understood why there was no cry from the ones who died in front of her.

The ability to talk vanishes away and only the unearthly feeling of weightlessness remained after the soul was slowly being sucked away. She just took one last look at the protector as she closed her eyes.

She was dead!!

Jiang Nan. The last leader of Ta Lo had died and her body was thrown away like a rag doll at the ground. The dragon who was struggling moved his eyes and looked at the dead figure of Jiang Nan. In-voluntarily, there were teardrops in the eyes of the ancient beast. Over the course of its lifetime he had seen many leaders.

Jiang Nan was a good one among them. He had seen many types of leaders, arrogant ones, merciless ones, kind ones, brave ones. But Jiang Nan was something else. Even after her own sister left the dimension she didn't persecute her or forcefully bring her back. And when Goku showed up, she left all her hopes and dreams for the child who didn't even belong to her.

She was the only one who was ready to give the position of leader to someone who never had any relation with their civilization. In fact, the kid's civilization from what he understood was a savage one.

And here she was. Giving up everything to make Goku as the leader. He loved the boy and soon he too would die soon. He had said his bye to Goku the last time, not knowing it would be the last time he would see the boy.

"Goku, I hope you will live happily and with a smile that you always have. Don't give your life for revenge. I don't want the smile to go away. I know you will be able to kill these degenerates but make sure to live your life. Be the leader that the kid Jiang Nan wanted you to be. Your siblings will carry the will of our civilization to the future."

The dragon was having these thoughts as he was fighting a battle against the 3 soul eaters. He was losing stamina in a very fast rate and he knew that he was going to die soon. One of the big tentacles finally was able to grab his neck and pull at him.

The dragon struggled more as it tried to free itself but soon the half dying soul eater and the other soul eater used their tentacles to bring the dragon down from reaching the dead body of Jiang Nan. Even in death they didn't want to allow the dragon to have any satisfaction.

The dragon got very angry and finally with his claws swiped at the body of the dying soul eater. He used all his strength at its limbs to kill the soul eater. His claws went through the huge mouth of the eater and broke its mouth in two.

The dying soul eater couldn't handle the sudden loss of its mouth and vanished into nothingness instantly. Killing the soul eater!! But doing this, he had sacrificed his defense. The two remaining soul eaters had got the window and used their tentacles to hold on to the mouth of the dragon forcing him to open.

The dragon was squirming intensely in order to free himself but it was too late. The soul eater had already started extracting the soul. The dragon who was struggling heavily slowly let go of his body and soon the soul which looked like it was a small sun was extracted.

The dragon that had been living for such a long time and looked over Ta Lo was dead. And with that the last remaining soldier of Ta Lo was dead too.
