The beams disappeared while the missiles made a big explosion, and as they did, their explosion only stayed on the side of the people from Area 01, it was as if an invisible barrier was there.

It was actually Lana's ability, Telekinesis, it was the ability to effect things with an invisible power, but that wasn't the only thing that she could do, she could also make a force field which was one of the strongest defenses in the world.

As the people on the side of Area 01 were still on a shock, the force field silently disappeared and without anyone noticing a cloud of black smoke kept on getting closer to them, it was hard to see as a lot of smoke was there in place because of the destruction of the warship that Ethan reduced to fragments and the explosion of the missiles.

"That black fog... be careful! Stay away from it!" It wasn't till the fog get too close that Ronald's hurried voice was heard in the channels of the nine warships.

When he saw that black fog, a memory returned to his mind, it was the appearance of people dying because of poison inside their own warship, what happened in their first fight against the seven Gods, that poisoned gas that entered the ship from an unknown place poisoned and killed everyone inside it.

Unfortunately even with his shout it was already too late.

Just as he noticed something was wrong and even before half of his words were said, the fog moved at an astonishing speed moving toward one of the ships and covering it, and then the same thing as the time before happened.

People inside the ship started falling like flies inside, and just like that the second warship fall to the ocean with everyone inside it long died.

The other warships kept on releasing attacks on the seven Gods they didn't want to give them a chance to attack again, unfortunately for them trying to stop the seven Gods with just the nine of them was impossible, since the very beginning their fate was sealed.

"Those people are really getting on my nerves." Lana said, before pointing at one of the warships.

The warship that got pointed at was the closest one to her.

It started acting in a weird way, first it started swaying from one side to the other before finally it started being crushed by an invisible force, the impression that that warship gave was as if it was being crushed like a can of coke being crushed by the hand of someone.

Soon after it couldn't take the pressure

and it exploded into pieces, all of that happened while Lana was still keeping a shield on the other side of the battlefield.

"I'll have to attack sooner or later, I think that attacking now won't be any different from attacking later." Athena murmured before patting little white, the Ice Phoenix.

Little white released a loud screech before it moved toward the remaining eight warships.

Seeing her trying to pass Lana made a way for her to go through her barrier, letting her move toward the warships, even if she hated Athena, at that time they were in a war and they were on the same side, so their fights and little despots had to be put aside.

Little white's speed was astonishing, the warships weren't able to lock on it at all.

It first moved toward one of the warships that were in the left side of the group, and in its breathtaking speed it used its claws to make a big cut in the middle of its body while flying over it.

That cut was big enough for the warship to start falling slowly with fire caught up on it, the fire was from the engines and all, but if you looked closely you would be able to see that actually in the place where his claws hit there was a big layer of ice.

Athena's and little white's attack wasn't over yet, instead little white turned around and opened its beak, and as it did, a little small blue ball of crystal or ice appeared, and in a speed visible to the naked eye, that small ball started growing, till finally that small ball become a ten meters big ball.

The size of the ball might sound big, but in comparison to the size of the Ice Phoenix and the warships it was nothing.

But Athena didn't show any doubt about that ball, or how much damage it would make, she only watched as little white released it toward one of the ships.

It moved in a horrifying speed, it was released in one second and in the other it was already right next to the warship.

As it hit it, it didn't make any sound as people expected, nor did it explode or destroy the part of the ship that it hit, instead as soon as it touched a surface it become a liquid and covered the whole ship, in less than three second it had already covered the whole gigantic warship, turning it into one big ice sculpture, it wasn't just the layer outside, instead everything and everyone inside the warship froze, losing their life, and all of that happened in three short seconds.

That one move of Athena and little while destroyed two warships turning the battlefield death silent, well, it was already like that for the seven Gods' side, so it only turned the side of Area 01 silent.

But that was only for a few seconds, the remaining six warships' captions soon returned to their senses and turned around trying to lock on her and destroy her.

Unfortunately for them they were just so slow.

Just as they returned to their senses Athena was already next to one of the warships, and from the top of the Ice Phoenix she touched the surface of the warship, the contact between her hand and the surface of the ship was for less than a second but what happened next drove everyone there crazy.

Even the other six Gods showed a little bit of surprise, they knew that Athena was strong but they never expected her to be that strong.

The warship that Athena touched get a thick layer of ice on it, it got covered in it before finally it fall to the ocean while sealed in ice, its engines were frozen and it's weight become way to big, so even if nothing happened to the engines it would have fallen to the ocean because of the huge amount of weight it gained.

Susan next to Athena get the ride of her life, she was just standing there on top of little white while looking at all what was happening with plugging eyes.

She was just standing there in surprise looking at all the fights happening around her, she watched as Ethan destroyed a warship and then she watched as the missiles and laser beams heading toward them just to got stopped by Lana, then Snake's poisons gas, she was being excited and all till she finally heard Athena's words and her face paled, she totally understood what was going to happen, and just as she expected she suddenly felt that the bird underneath her start moving.

At first it clawed a big warship before turning its head to release a ball at another one all of the sudden.

And then the next thing she knew they were already stopped next to a warship and she watched in shock as Athena touched the surface of that warship with her bare hands, before she flew away again.

After little white finally stopped again she turned her head to see that behind her three warships were out, one fall to the ocean after getting a long cut on its body that almost destroyed it, the second and third one were just ice balls as they fall to the ocean, leaving only five warships.

She was surprised by the power of little white that's true, but what really surprised her was Athena's power.

Not wanting to be left out, Carlos tlThe Barbarian rode his Roc as he got closer to the remaining warships.

And when he saw that most of them were inside the limit of his ability he activated it, and what happened next was three ships starting to sway from one sidr to the other till they finally fall to the ocean and drowned, while the final two retreated and tried to stay as far as possible from Carlos and his weird ability.

They actually didn't understand it entirely, but they saw it enough of times to know that it meant problems for them.

"Ok let's finish it." saying that Ethan moved forward on top of his Phoenix toward the last remaining warships, as he got closer the two warships tried to run away because they finally understood how they didn't have any chance at all against him and the others.

Unfortunately for them Athena and Carlos had closed their running paths leaving them no way out.

In the end the two warships decided to go to the place where Athena was, as even if they decided to leave through the place were Carlos was, their warships would stop working and they would probably die like that.

And Ethan seemed as if he was sure that he would be able to finish them, so in the end they chose to try running through where Athena was.

Seeing that Athena smiled and pointed at the ocean, the people in the two warships started panicking when they saw her do that.

But after a while passed and nothing happened they calmed down a little, but they still kept an eye on the place around them.

Unfortunately it was useless, as they got closer to Athena there was a sudden splash in the water and two gigantic ice spears appeared from under it.

Their speed was unbelievable and they headed for the two warships giving them no time to response at all, they got hit by those two spears.

And as if understanding their weaknesses the place that Athena hit using those two spears was their engines, but also because of the ice spears size not only the engines were destroyed but most of the area around them too.

One of the two warships exploded just like that while the other one fall and drowned in the ocean.

Athena then slowly rode Little White as she moved toward the other Gods.

"I wanted to be the one who destroy those two." Ethan said as Athena passed by him.

Sue turned her head to him before saying coldly:

"Grow up."

Her words made Ethan's face quite hideous and hard to look at, but in the end he only sneered and returned to the side of the Gods too.

"Let's move, they already know that we are coming, we shouldn't waste any more time." Adam said.

Then he turned his head to the Divine Armies behind him and said:

"You shouldn't underestimate them just because we were able to win two times against them, if I'm not mistaken then they have way stronger weapons and machines, and even if they don't, you winning against the ones just now is still unknown, so as I said don't underestimate them, that can lead to your deaths." then he turned his head to the front before they started moving again.

They then started moving, their speed was faster than before by a little, they pushed themselves to move faster.

Then they finally made it to their target...

Australia.

But they saw that there was a lot of warships, destroyers and other machines around the place there, all of them were waiting for their arrival.
