Chapter 9: The Omniversal Journey of Vlox
Vlox stood beyond the clouds, silently watching the world below.
Humanity had changed.
The fragile race that had once hidden behind walls and lived in constant fear had grown into something entirely different.
Towering kingdoms now stretched across entire continents.
Golden banners fluttered proudly above magnificent castles.
Massive stone canals redirected rivers through thriving cities.
Countless settlements sparkled beneath the sunlight like stars scattered across the earth.
Humans moved with purpose.
Armies marched across vast roads.
Merchants traveled between kingdoms carrying goods and wealth.
Kings ruled over flourishing nations.
A faint smile appeared on Vlox’s face.
"Humans truly are terrifying creatures," "he murmured" "In such a short time, they’ve already built kingdoms."
His crimson eyes swept across the world.
"But they are still weak."
He could sense it clearly.
The strongest among them had only reached the First Stage of Dominion.
Their souls were still incomplete.
Their power was insignificant compared to the endless universes that existed beyond this world.
"This world no longer needs me for now."
Space distorted around him.
"Let us return after some time has passed."
The next moment, Vlox vanished.
He traveled through the endless void between universes until he arrived in another strange world.
The instant he entered, he felt overwhelming energy flowing through every corner of existence.
"This power..."
Vlox narrowed his eyes.
"It feels primal."
Before long, he discovered the source.
Two humans with monkey tails stood upon a massive floating platform surrounded by endless skies.
One had wild black hair that naturally pointed upward and a carefree smile.
The other possessed sharp upright hair and a fierce, determined expression.
Both radiated monstrous power.
Vlox observed them silently.
"They are preparing for battle, but there are no enemies here."
Then he noticed another presence.
A tall blue-skinned angel with calm white hair stood before them, wearing a peaceful smile.
The pressure surrounding him distorted reality itself.
"Interesting," Vlox whispered.
"So they are training for the future."
Suddenly, the black-haired warrior charged forward.
His fist shattered the air itself.
The angel effortlessly dodged every attack, moving with the grace of a dancer.
Again and again, the warrior launched explosive attacks.
Again and again, the angel avoided them while smiling casually.
Then the second warrior joined the battle.
The sky exploded.
Blue energy waves shook entire planets.
Shockwaves tore through distant stars.
Space itself trembled beneath their punches.
Yet the angel treated the fight as nothing more than a game.
Finally, he moved.
Two strikes.
Only two.
The black-haired warrior and the sharp-haired warrior collapsed unconscious instantly.
Vlox narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Now this is interesting."
So he stayed.
Years passed.
Then decades.
Vlox silently watched countless battles unfold throughout the universe.
He witnessed warriors shatter dimensions with their fists.

"This universe is entertaining," Vlox said while holding a bowl of noodles.
Eventually, fifty years passed.
"I have seen enough."
With a single step, he vanished once more.
The next world felt different.
Calmer.
Yet beneath that calm surface lurked endless hatred.
"This power system..."
Vlox observed the energy flowing throughout the world.
"Chakra."
Soon, he discovered two warriors standing opposite one another.
One possessed bright yellow hair and eyes filled with unwavering determination.
The other had black hair and glowing red eyes that radiated darkness.
Without warning-
They attacked.
The earth shattered beneath their clash.
Blue energy spiraled around the yellow-haired warrior.
Dark flames erupted around the black-haired swordsman.
Gigantic beasts formed from pure chakra roared across the battlefield.
Lightning pierced the heavens.
Their fists collided with enough force to split mountains.
One fought to protect his bonds.
The other fought to sever them forever.
Their final attacks collided within the valley like the wrath of gods.
Then silence followed.
Vlox watched quietly.
"How fascinating."
Then he remembered something.
"Fifty-one years ago, I discovered a food called popcorn."
With a simple flick of his finger, infinite popcorn appeared around him.
Thus, Vlox spent decades watching the chakra world evolve.

Grilled fish skewers.
Takoyaki.
Rice bowls soaked in curry.

"This world understands food," Vlox said approvingly.
Then he left once more.
The next universe smelled of salt and freedom.
Endless oceans stretched beneath the sky.
"This power..."
Vlox observed carefully.
"Devil Fruits."
Soon, he discovered a chaotic world ruled by pirates.

For decades, Vlox watched the era unfold.

"This world is loud," Vlox muttered while drinking juice from a coconut.
"But enjoyable."
Then he disappeared once again.
The next world overflowed with spiritual pressure.
Even the air felt heavy.
"This energy..."
"Spiritual power."
Soon, Vlox discovered an orange-haired young man battling monstrous creatures beneath the moonlight.
The young warrior’s sword sliced through the darkness.
For years, Vlox observed the endless cycle of souls and death.

Massive empires covered entire continents.
Floating cities drifted through the skies.
Dominion energy filled the atmosphere.
Armies capable of destroying mountains stood beneath royal banners.
And at the center of it all-
A king.
Vlox observed him silently.
"The Sixth Stage of Dominion..."
For the first time in centuries, genuine interest appeared in his eyes.
"Impressive."
Then he sensed another powerful presence.
A general standing beside the throne radiated the power of the Fifth Stage of Dominion.
The world had transformed completely.
Humanity was no longer weak.
Vlox slowly smiled.
"Now..."
His crimson eyes gleamed with anticipation.
"This finally becomes interesting."
