My name is Sasuke, from being the richest man in Naruto to dominating the world

Chapter 528: Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom; Saga's End

The three Gold Saints fought each other in the Pope's Palace. The noise caused seemed small, but it actually had a significant impact.

Let’s not talk about what other people think here, let’s just talk about Sasuke. He is currently sitting on the sofa in Kido’s mansion, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, looking at Athena with a smile.

"There's already a lot of blood and blood flowing over there, don't you care at all?"

“Why should I care?”

"Kiroudo Saori" glanced at Sasuke, picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Her expression was very calm, and her emotions were terribly stable, without any ripples.

"They are your Saints. Wouldn't it be a loss if one of them died? And you should have left a rule that Saints are not allowed to fight each other. Now they are openly violating the rule... Tsk tsk, I can't say."

Sasuke is now enjoying the fun, and whether Athena is furious or completely ignores him, it is very interesting to him.

"Saori Kido" looked at Sasuke again and gently put down the wine glass.

"Don't worry, they won't die that easily. I did leave some rules, but so many years have passed. It's no big deal if the people below make some small mistakes occasionally."

"So, even the assassination of the Pope can be considered a minor mistake? That Pope Shion was a Gold Saint of the previous generation, right? He successfully sealed the Hades Saints, and then guarded the Sanctuary for more than a hundred years, but in the end he was killed by his own descendants. Is this considered a minor matter?"

Sasuke would not miss such a good opportunity. He seized the loophole and immediately spoke in a barrage of words.

"..."

Athena was obviously stumped by the question and sat there without saying anything for a while.

Is the Gold Saint important to her?

Nature is important.

In fact, all fighters are very important to the gods they believe in.

It’s not that the gods value the fighting power of these fighters. Compared with the complete gods, whether they are Saint Seiya, Sea Saints or Hades Saints, their power is actually not worth mentioning.

However, the gods need these fighters to complete the holy war for them.

It's just like some big countries cultivate agents and then launch proxy wars.

If there are no fighters, then the proxy war is likely to escalate directly into a war between major powers, that is, a holy war will turn into a war of gods, which would be very troublesome.

So the Saint Seiya is very important to Athena.

What's more, Athena herself is not a cold-hearted person. Unlike Hades, she is actually very caring towards her subordinates. Now she says that she doesn't care, maybe she just doesn't want Sasuke to see her miserable side?
"And Gemini. Speaking of which, Gemini should have had this problem for a long time, right?"

Sasuke continued to ask.

As far as he knew, the problems with Gemini were not limited to one or two generations of Saints. Almost every generation of Gemini had experienced the tendency to turn evil.

"Yes, Gemini has been like this since the beginning. This is the destiny of this sign."

"Even you can't change it?"

Sasuke became more curious.

"There's nothing I can do. Constellations, or stars, have their fates determined since the moment they were born. Not only me, but even Zeus and every generation of gods before him can't change it."

Gods can easily blow up a planet, but the constellation mentioned here is obviously not as simple as a few planets combined to form a pattern.

There are many conceptual things involved here. It is not possible to change everything simply by having great power. One must have a deeper understanding of the underlying rules of this world, and even surpass the level of gods, before it is possible to change everything.

But for the gods, is it really necessary to forcibly reverse this kind of thing? Not to mention that Athena does not have this skill, even if she does, it is only a problem for a Gold Saint, and it is obviously not necessary to do it to that extent.

"So what now? Are you just going to watch them fight? If you keep letting them fight, the Papal Palace won't be able to be saved. And the Gemini Saint will definitely be killed if he faces two, no, three opponents of the same level at the same time."

Sasuke reminded.

Athena was silent for a moment, but finally shook her head.

“This is also his destiny.”

When she said this, she glanced at Sasuke seemingly casually.

In fact, the one with the biggest problem here is not anyone else, but Sasuke himself.

Because of his appearance, the development of this world has undergone tremendous changes.

The reappearance of Mu Continent and Atlantis made Saga a little anxious. Originally, he gave Deathmask the order to assassinate Dohko, but as long as the situation was not right, he should evacuate quickly. However, this time he gave Deathmask a death order, asking him to kill Dohko.

The result is predictable. Dohko was furious and rushed to the sanctuary. The reason was that Saga had gone too far.

At the same time, the Hades Saints who were suppressed under the Five Elders Peak were originally the reason for restraining Dohko and preventing him from leaving. However, because of the big commotion caused by Sasuke, the seal of the Hades Saints was loosened prematurely.

Dohko's job is to guard the seal, not to reinforce or seal it, something he is simply incapable of doing.

Now that the seal has been loosened and the return of the Hades Saints is imminent, Dohko knows that there is no point in him staying in the Five Elders Peak. Coupled with Saga's cross-border behavior this time, Dohko eventually goes berserk.

On the other hand, Aiolia was supposed to meet Athena during this operation, but when he went back to question Saga, he was controlled by the other party with the Phantom Demon Emperor Fist, and later became an obstacle when the five little warriors bravely entered the twelve zodiac signs.

But now, because of Mao and Jian's actions, Aiolia was unable to meet Athena, which made him lose a major reason to question Saga.

At the same time, because he did not see Athena, he returned to the Sanctuary earlier than the original world line. As a result, he happened to encounter the battle between Dohko and Saga, so he took action in anger and became a member of the siege of Saga.

Not to mention Aphrodite, he was supposed to be one of the obstacles in the way of the five little heroes, but now he has become a member of the group besieging Saga.

Yes, Abro did take action against Ye, but after all, he was more loyal to Athena. After a period of inner struggle, he decisively chose to do the right thing.

So the current situation is that Saga is clearly at a disadvantage in a three-on-one situation, after all, there is also a Dohko who is equally strong as him but has more experience than him. More importantly, Libra's own special characteristics allow him to provide a large number of weapons for other Saints.

The difference between having weapons and not having weapons is actually quite large. After all, sometimes with a shield, you can block attacks that were originally unblockable, and even strike back.

No matter who it is, being besieged by three fully armed Gold Saints would probably not be an easy task.

Sasuke monitored the battlefield situation in real time and took the time to glance at Athena.

Athena was calm now, but Sasuke thought she would never be able to calm down because everything had changed.

The holy war, the recovery time, and even the training of reserve forces were disrupted.

Especially the last point, I felt Sasuke was strange when I watched anime before.

With Athena's level, there is no reason for her not to know about the voices of rebellion in the sanctuary.

Well, even if she had just awakened, her microcosm had not yet reached its peak and she could not detect any problems within the sanctuary.

But when Xiaoqiang and his friends bravely entered the twelve zodiac signs, she was actually shot by a golden arrow and was even in danger of death. This is ridiculous.

You have to know that she is Athena, the goddess to whom all the Saints are loyal. The Saints' holy clothes are all blessed by her, including the golden arrows.

She was actually hurt by the golden arrow that she had blessed and almost died. Who would believe it if I told others about this?

If it is understandable that Athena was in danger during the subsequent battles with the warriors of other gods, then it is too fake to say that she was threatened by her own warriors.

Therefore, Sasuke has always believed that the so-called Bronze Cockroach's brave entry into the Twelve Zodiac Signs was just a drama deliberately designed by Athena.

She needed to train reserve forces for the Saints, and those bronze saints were the ones she selected. After various previous battles, she had basically locked in that the five people headed by Seiya were the most valuable to train and had the talent to become gold saints in the future, so she deliberately cooperated with Saga and put on such a drama.

Of course, the scene where Saga wants to assassinate Athena is Saga's true feelings, it is not fake.

Athena simply took advantage of this plan.

Not only did she use Saga and other Saints to train several young people she liked, but she also threw some "traitors" into the underworld. When the holy war broke out with Hades, she served as an insider and provided a lot of help to the Sanctuary.

What? You say this guess is too far-fetched?

Haha, don’t forget the name of Athena.

She is the goddess of wisdom, war and art in the Olympian pantheon. Note that the title of the goddess of wisdom comes before the title of the goddess of war. This is very important. The order of the titles represents what she is really good at.

Why was Athena able to win many holy wars? Why was she able to control the earth for so long? Was it really because she was so powerful?
This is only one aspect. In the final analysis, she is smart enough to deceive other gods and make long-term plans.

In terms of combat power, Athena is at most on par with Hades. The average strength of the Saints is lower than that of the Hades Saints, especially the Three Giants of the Underworld. Any one of them can kill a Gold Saint in a one-on-one fight.

But in all the holy wars, Hades's side could never defeat Athena's side. This is clear proof.

Strategies are not useless. Only when there is an absolute gap in strength between the two sides will the effect of the strategies become very weak. When the two sides are evenly matched, the effect of the strategies will be very great.

Therefore, Sasuke has every reason to believe that Athena actually knows everything, she has just been pretending to be deaf and dumb and secretly pushing the development of the world line.

But now, the plot of the Twelve Zodiacs stage has completely changed. Saga was exposed ahead of time and is now besieged by the three Gold Saints. Athena's plan is a complete failure.

"Go check him out. Even though he's a traitor, he still has the potential to repent. After all, he still has a kind side. And the Hades warriors have begun to revive. You should prepare early."

Although he knew that Athena was already thinking about these issues, it didn't stop Sasuke from making suggestions.

Athena nodded calmly upon hearing this.

"I'll go see him."

As she spoke, she stood up from her chair, and the huge microcosm began to revive within her body.

"It seems that you woke up smoothly. Has Kido Saori completely merged with you?"

"Not yet," Athena shook her head. "This body is still too immature. It can only hold a portion of my power at the moment. But it doesn't matter. We are one. I am both Athena and Kido Saori."

"That's good. When are we leaving? If we don't leave now, Saga won't be able to bear it."

Sasuke asked.

"Are you going too?"

Athena looked at him in surprise.

"Of course. How can I not take a look at such a big thing? Come on, do you want me to open the door?"

Sasuke asked with interest.

Although Athena didn't understand what "open the door" meant, she could roughly understand what Sasuke meant. She shook her head, and her Cosmo suddenly burned further. She used the power of her Cosmo to cover Sasuke, and then the next second, both of them disappeared from their original places at the same time.

same moment.

Inside the Papal Palace, the battle was drawing to a close.

Saga was leaning against the wall with one hand, breathing heavily, his face and body covered in blood.

His armor was already full of tears and his helmet had flown away somewhere unknown. He had put on the armor and helmet during the battle, but it was useless as it could not block the attacks of the three opponents.

Even so, Saga's performance was already shocking. He blocked three Gold Saints by himself. This achievement is not something that just anyone can do.

Opposite him.

Aphrodite was lying on his back in a pile of rubble, unconscious. He was the first person to lose consciousness in the battle.

Aiolia knelt on one knee with blood at the corner of his mouth.

Only Tonghu was in good condition, still standing there steadily. Although he was a little dusty, he was in much better condition than the other three.

"Saga, do you still intend to resist to the end? You have no chance of winning. Surrender now. When the goddess returns, I can still plead for her on your behalf..."

"Surrender? Hahahaha, I've come this far, how can I surrender? Stop talking nonsense, old man! Come on, let's continue. Today it's either you or me!"

Saga was so arrogant that he tore off the upper half of the holy garment with force. His microcosm burned to the extreme, and even the Pope's Palace began to tremble.

Dohko sighed lightly, and when he was about to tear off his holy clothes, a golden microcosm suddenly fell from the sky.

At this moment, everyone in the entire holy land raised their heads and looked towards the sky.
