The moment the video updated—
the people across the myriad anime dimensions, still wanting more, were all stunned.
Damn...
What a conscientious author—updating this fast?
TOP 5: The Other Side of the World.
A power ranked above the God of Space and the God of Time?!
"Even the twin gods who rule over space and time can only rank seventh and sixth. I really can't imagine what kind of existence this TOP 5 must be." At Marine Headquarters, Sengoku sighed with emotion.
"Is there really a power in this world even greater than the power of space itself?" Black Zetsu looked dazed. What force could possibly be stronger than time and space?
"Ranked fifth... a source even stronger than the source of space and the source of time?" In the Digital World, Homeostasis also fell into confusion, wondering what kind of power could surpass both space and time.
"Dabao, is there really some kind of power stronger than space and time?" On Chicken Island, Seven asked Da Fei.
"How would I know? If you ask me, who am I supposed to ask? Maybe it's the power of mosaic. Once mosaic shows up, it crushes everything!" Da Fei replied.

In the world of Re:Zero − Starting Life in Another World—
Subaru Natsuki had just experienced Return by Death once again, clutching his stomach.
Not long ago, his abdomen had been sliced open, his intestines pulled out.
He possessed the power of Return by Death. Once he died, he would return to the point in time before his death.
If he didn't have Return by Death, he would have died who knew how many times already in this other world.
As he watched the ranking video, he found it hard to believe.
There was actually a power even greater than time.
...
In short—
the worlds of One Piece, Naruto, Bleach, Fairy Tail, Fullmetal Alchemist, Ling Cage, Blue Exorcist...
all these worlds with relatively lower power ceilings were utterly baffled.
TOP 10 and TOP 9—Kyogre and Groudon, creators of the sea and land—had already gone beyond the limits of their understanding.
With the knowledge they currently possessed,
they simply could not imagine what kind of power could stand above space and time.
"In these worlds of insects, they can actually wield space and time?!" In the Dragon Ball world, Frieza, who had always looked down on everything, felt a surge of jealousy.
Why did these insects deserve such power?
Some races in the universe could also use the power of space. They could use Instant Transmission and travel anywhere.
But that was merely using space—not creating it.
According to the explanation in the ranking, the insect called Palkia was capable of creating space.
As for the power of time, in the entire universe, Frieza had never found any race capable of wielding it.
Even Gods of Destruction probably didn't possess such an ability.
And no matter how hard Frieza racked his brain, he still couldn't think of any power more terrifying than time and space.
He was truly jealous.
Giving power like that to those insects was such a waste. If it were given to him instead, the position of God of Destruction would've changed hands long ago!
...
On Blue Planet—
Rin Aokawa stretched lazily. Releasing TOP 7, 6, and 5 all at once really was exhausting.
He glanced at the comments in the backend.
Seeing that everyone was in shock, wondering what kind of power could be even more terrifying than time and space,
he couldn't help but smile.
In front of that Pokémon, Palkia and Dialga truly weren't enough.
Or rather—
they would be crushed completely, one-sidedly, by that Pokémon.
After all, it was a god that controlled an entire world!!
A Pokémon that governed dark matter—the king of the dark world.
If the world were divided into yin and yang,
then the land of the Pokémon world, where all Pokémon depended on for survival, was the yang side of the world.
Then the place where that Pokémon lived
was the yin side of the world.
"I really wonder what expressions these people will make when they see Palkia and Dialga—who looked so awesome in the last ranking video—getting completely thrashed."
Rin Aokawa looked forward to it greatly.
After being busy for so long, he planned to head downstairs and buy something from the vending machine.
And just then...
a shrill alarm rang out over the entire city of Icefield Base.
It was a Level-One Alert!
Whenever a Level-One Alert appeared, it generally meant the base might be in danger of falling.
"Ferocious beasts—the ferocious beasts are attacking the city!!"
"It's over, it's over! Is Icefield Base going to be breached by a beast tide just like Sunrise Base was?!"
At that moment, Icefield Base was in complete chaos.
Even from far away, they could see the densely packed flying-type ferocious beasts on the horizon.
Countless Beast Tamers rushed toward the city walls.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!!!
In the sky, endless flying-type ferocious beasts beat their wings, the resonance of the air creating terrifying booming sounds.
Violent currents shredded the clouds apart.
At the sight of this horrifying scene, countless Beast Tamers standing atop Icefield Base's walls felt their scalps go numb.
"It's actually a flying-type beast siege!"
Some of the powerful Beast Tamers looked especially grim.
Flying-types were the hardest to deal with, because they were in the air. Against them, the ground-based wall defenses were as good as useless.
Suddenly—
they saw, among the beast swarm, ten ferocious beasts radiating frightening light and exuding terrifying auras.
The Beast Tamers' expressions changed drastically.
Ten overlord-level ferocious beasts?!
Fortunately, after the neighboring Sunrise Base had been breached, the Beast Tamer General Union had dispatched powerful Beast Tamers to garrison Icefield Base.
"Ten? I'll take two!"
"I'll handle one."
"Ten overlord-level ferocious beasts... this lineup is truly terrifying. Even if we manage to hold them back, Icefield City probably won't survive."
"That said, overlord-level ferocious beasts are all rulers of their own domains, and usually act alone. Why would ten of them move together?"
One Beast Tamer seemed to remember something. "Unless... unless... unless there's an even stronger ferocious beast commanding them."
"Skreee—!"
From within the beast swarm came an extremely piercing bird cry, like an invisible sound wave sweeping across the sky.
There was a giant eagle-like creature, entirely cyan, at least fifty meters long, like a small mountain.
Streams of cyan airflow flowed between each of its feathers. Every flap of its wings stirred up a massive storm.
It seemed to be the overlord of the skies itself.
The moment they saw this ferocious beast, every Beast Tamer's face turned deathly pale.
Sky-Splitting Eagle!
A King-level ferocious beast!
The king who ruled the skies!!
Their hearts turned ice-cold.
It was over. Icefield Base was truly finished.
"Th-That... what is that?!"
Suddenly, someone screamed.
They saw that on the ground directly below the densely packed flying-type ferocious beasts,
everything suddenly turned red.
The earth looked as if it had been smelted into magma, and a terrifying pressure spread through heaven and earth.
At some unknown moment,
a gigantic phantom had appeared between heaven and earth.
The phantom was like a mountain, covered all over in crimson scales. The instant it appeared, the world trembled.
Countless ferocious beasts—including all of the Beast Tamers' beast companions—collapsed flat onto the ground.
In the sky, those previously arrogant flying-type ferocious beasts dropped to the ground one after another like dumplings being poured out.
Including that King-level ferocious beast, the Sky-Splitting Eagle.
That terrifying crimson ferocious beast phantom suddenly stomped its foot.
Boom!!!
On the earth, a gigantic magma-covered mountain burst up from the ground, stabbing straight into the heavens!
The enormous crimson ferocious beast phantom slowly faded away.
And that mountain piercing the sky vanished along with it.
But...
throughout the entire Icefield Base, whether Beast Tamers or ordinary people,
all stared blankly at the sky.
Their eyes were vacant, as though they had witnessed a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
The sky was utterly empty.
There was only a blue canopy overhead.
It was truly so clean that nothing remained.
Including...
the previously dense swarm of flying-type ferocious beasts, the ten overlord-level ferocious beasts, and the King-level Sky-Splitting Eagle.
All of them were gone.
...
In a low-income rental room in Icefield Base,
Rin Aokawa carried the instant food he had bought from the vending machine and quietly returned to his room.
If Icefield Base were breached,
he would have to start wandering again.
What a waste of time.
...
At the same time—
all the people across the myriad dimensions were watching the TOP 5 ranking video.
On the screen,
an image appeared.
