Pirates of the Dead - Chapter 225
Under the terrifying suction force, the remaining members of the scythe pirates cried out in alarm. They struggled with all their might, but their bodies were still uncontrollably flying towards Qin Ge.
Like a black hole, he absorbed the pirates around him. Qin Ge’s body was dancing, and his eyes were full of cold and intense killing intent.
With a low shout, the suction force suddenly disappeared from his palm and was replaced by two sparkling and translucent Essence Qi balls. They revolved and trembled, then collided with Qin Ge’s palm with a loud bang.
Boom
It was as if a nuclear bomb had detonated. A blast of Yuan Qi that could be seen with the naked eye instantly erupted, with Qin Ge as the center.
The pillar of light that shot into the sky shattered the casino’s ceiling and shot into the atmosphere. Then, it expanded wildly in all directions, destroying everything in its path.
Miserable screams and roars echoed. The glorious casino was instantly covered by the sparkling and translucent Yuan Qi that bloomed. Only the howling of the surrounding airwaves could be seen.
In just a few breaths, the casino had already disappeared when the light that shot into the sky dissipated. It was replaced by a broken wall and a giant pit that had sunk several meters into the ground.
The whistling airwaves gradually dispersed, and the casino ruins could no longer sense any life fluctuations.
The members of the Sickle Pirates were turned into ashes by the explosion of the ‘three parts return to vitality’. Seeing the Kenbunshoku Haki sweep around, and after confirming that no one survived, Qin Ge immediately stepped forward and used the ‘Walking in the Air’ to fly high into the sky, shooting straight in the direction of where Claire was flying.
In a great hall in the palace, it was a happy scene at this time, and beautiful dancers were dancing in the lobby.
“Haha, Mr Jerome has come to our country this time and has to play for a few days!”
“Yes, it is our honor to be born in our country first. We can’t go too fast, or we will be rude!”
“…!”
Under the lively atmosphere of the banquet, the higher-ups of the kingdom and the kingdom’s capital were cheering. At the same time, many people frequently toasted with Jeffery, sitting in front of a table filled with delicacies and fruits.
“No, no, no, the king of Ferdinand and everyone is too polite. I am only passing by this time and am very grateful for your hospitality!” Jeffery shook his head and smiled. He was not proud of the flattery of the people around him but was extremely calm.
However, this was possible to understand. After all, the power of the Whitebeard pirates in the new world was incomparable.
Like this scene, Jeffery was already used to it. He would receive local hospitality whenever he went to the territory under their protection. Even the so-called royal family wouldn’t dare to put on airs before their Whitebeard pirates.
One side welcomed him warmly, and the other side responded calmly. The entire scene was naturally peaceful and happy, but the people who ruined the scenery still appeared.
Just as the royal family and higher-ups held this banquet to welcome Jeffery, a man dressed as a soldier rushed in from the hall’s entrance.
“King, this subordinate has something to report!” The soldier knelt on one knee, not caring about destroying the atmosphere of the banquet. He shouted anxiously.
King Ferdinand III suddenly frowned, and his face showed displeasure. How could the people under him be so ignorant? Didn’t they see that he was entertaining the guests? It was also an important matter. It was more important than considering the people of the Whitebeard pirates.
Almost without thinking, Ferdinand, somewhat dissatisfied, wanted to send the soldier away in three lifetimes. Even if there were something, he would have to wait until the banquet ended before dealing with it.
“Wait a minute, is there someone making trouble outside?” Jeffery suddenly spoke, interrupting Ferdinand’s actions. At the same time, he also looked at Jeffery in surprise.
Jeffery suddenly interrupted because he thought of what had happened in the gambling scene earlier. He thought that that guy, Claire, was daring enough to cause trouble in the casino, which was why this soldier had come to report.
This connection was possible. After all, no matter what, Claire Latin was a pirate with a bounty of over 300 million. If he made trouble because he lost, it would be difficult to suppress the army of Ethiom.
The soldier kneeling on the ground subconsciously looked at Jeffery. He was the palace guards’ captain, so he naturally knew that Jeffery was the captain of the White Beard Pirates. He was also a significant figure that even their kingdom needed to respect.
“Sir Jeffery, people are indeed causing trouble in the capital city. Moreover, they even destroyed a casino. According to the reports from the people below, the ones causing trouble are the Sickle Pirates and the Blood Dragon Sword Hero!”
The captain of the soldiers quickly said. At the same time, when he spoke of the ‘Blood Dragon Sword Hero’, he paused slightly. His tone became a little heavier, but at the same time, there was some hesitation.
Bang —!
The sound of the table being knocked over almost instantly came from the hall. Food and fruits were scattered all over the ground. It was the result of Jeff suddenly standing up from his chair. At the same time, his face also had a chill.
Ferdinand the Third and the higher-ups changed their expressions in the hall. What did the name Blood Dragon Sword Hero represent? How could they not know that the Whitebeard pirates protected them?
“Are you sure that the person who made trouble is Blood Dragon, Sword Hero!” Jeff almost gnashed his teeth; his face was full of anger and killing intent.
“This was reported by the staff who escaped from the gambling scene. But at that time, the white-bearded pirates also hunted down us. The appearance of the blood dragon sword hero is conveyed to everyone in the kingdom. It can’t be wrong!” The captain of the soldiers explained.
He hesitated just now because he knew the gap between the blood dragon sword hero and the white-bearded pirate group, so he feared the people under him were mistaken and blamed.
But just as he said, half a year ago, the white-bearded pirates issued a kill order to Qin Ge, but it reached every shelter territory under Qin Ge’s appearance. Even if half a year had passed, they would still need to recognize the right person.
“King Ferdinand, it seems that this banquet will be temporarily over. I will go and settle the grudge between our pirates!”
Intense killing intent emitted from Jeffery’s body as he spoke coldly while reading. The terrifying killing intent caused the temperature in the hall to drop by quite a bit.
The dancers initially performing in the theater couldn’t help but retreat to the edge of the gallery in fear. The upper echelons of the kings present were also extremely nervous.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jeffery didn’t wait for Ferdinand’s third life to reply. He directly turned around and rushed out of the hall like a cheetah. His profound Kenbunshoku Haki swept out towards the casino.
“Quickly contact the Whitebeard pirates and tell them we have found the Blood Dragon Swordsman!” Ferdinand III, who was a little slower, also reacted and hurriedly got up and shouted.
Blood Dragon Swordsman was the enemy of the Whitebeard pirates, and the bounty order had just been removed.
Although Jeffery was here, whether it was to curry favour with the Whitebeard pirates or not, Ferdinand III had to inform them as soon as possible.
