Contract Red Hair Shanks, the school beauty kicked me off the boat

Chapter 242: The Cicada in the Nest?

"Ye Yu!!" The Snake King's roar was no longer a mental fluctuation, but a roar that truly shook the air, causing the ice surface to crack inch by inch.

"I will crush your bones inch by inch! Let your screams echo throughout this battlefield!"

Faced with this powerful pressure, Ye Yu stood on the edge of the icy chasm, once again using Yama. His left hand gripped Yama's Diagonal Finger, and the dark red domineering aura wrapped around the blade roared like thunder.

He slowly raised his right arm and grasped the hilt of the black sword Night behind him, now holding two swords in his hands.

Clang——!
The moment the black sword Yoru was drawn, it lacked the violent aura of Enma, but instead possessed a deeper, more restrained, and seemingly timeless sharpness.

Ye Yu's aura underwent a qualitative change the moment he drew his twin swords. If he was like a volcano about to erupt before, then at this moment, he was like a god in control of destruction.

"You're talking too much nonsense."

Ye Yu's voice was icy, resonating through the vibrations of his twin swords, clearly overpowering the Snake King's roar.

"Your head, and your experience, I'm taking them all!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Yu's figure vanished abruptly.

"Huh?!" The Serpent King's enormous vertical pupils suddenly contracted, and an unprecedented sense of crisis instantly gripped it!

Its massive body twisted violently, and its dark gold snake tail, covered in runes, lashed out like a collapsing mountain, carrying a terrifying power that could crush space, towards the spot where Ye Yu had last stood.

At the same time, its three ferocious heads opened their massive mouths—the left one spewed out a dark green poisonous breath powerful enough to corrode space, the right one condensed an absolute zero cold current capable of freezing souls, and the middle one was brewing a destructive dark golden energy breath.

It dared not hold back in the slightest, and its attack was a full-force, deadly strike!

Boom! ! ! !
The snake's tail lashed out, shattering the ice surface and the seabed below, creating towering, turbid waves.

Three deadly breaths intersected and covered an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius. The poisonous breath corroded everything, the cold current froze everything, and the dark gold breath annihilated everything.

However, Ye Yu was not among them!

In the next instant, Ye Yu's figure appeared like a ghost, appearing without warning directly above the Snake King's raised head, which was spewing dark golden breath, at a speed that surpassed visual perception.

"So fast. I can't sense it with Observation Haki. This is Observation Kill, and the speed itself is so fast." Ye Yu's cold face and the pair of swords burning with dark red Haki were clearly reflected in the vertical pupil of the middle head of the snake king.

Shocked and uneasy, he realized that the combination of the "Surprise Attack" skill and the extremely fast speed made close combat too dangerous for him.

Dual Blades Style: Divine Evasion!

Ye Yu's roar resounded, and the black swords Night and Enma, which he gripped tightly in both hands, burst forth with an unprecedentedly brilliant light at this moment.

There are no fancy techniques, only the purest and most domineering power unleashed.

With his twin blades crossed, he slashed fiercely at the snake king's neck, a vital spot covered by the hardest dark gold scales!
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The serpent king sensed a deadly threat. It frantically twisted its head to try and escape, while dark gold runes lit up wildly on its neck, forming an incredibly thick shield that shimmered with metallic luster.

The other two heads, disregarding their own attacks, desperately rushed back to reinforce Ye Yu, spewing poisonous breath and icy currents at him.

But it was too late.

Ye Yu's twin blades, carrying the "Divine Evasion" technique for rapid defense penetration and the "Absolute Power Crushing" technique, were like two red-hot blades slashing out fiercely.

*Swoosh—Boom!*
A piercing metallic tearing sound rang out simultaneously, accompanied by a deafening energy explosion.

The shield shattered like fragile glass the moment the twin blades struck.

Immediately afterwards, the snake's neck, covered with the strongest scales, was slashed in fiercely by the crossed blades.

The seemingly indestructible dark gold scales were sliced ​​open like paper, the terrifying strike tearing flesh and shattering bones. Dark red Conqueror's Haki energy, like a leech, surged wildly into the wound, destroying the Serpent King's immense life force.

“Ouch——!!!”

The largest head in the middle of the serpent king let out the most shrill and painful scream since the start of the war.

The sound was filled with unbelievable pain and bone-deep fear; a huge "X"-shaped wound, deep enough to expose the bone, had almost severed half of its neck.

Dark golden, molten-hot snake blood gushed from the wound like a waterfall! The blood contained terrifying energy, and when it dripped onto the ice, it instantly corroded huge pits in the solid ice, emitting a terrifying sizzling sound!
The excruciating pain drove the snake king completely mad, and the venomous breath and chilling currents from its other two heads slammed into the spot where Ye Yu was standing.

Boom! Boom!
The poisonous breath collided with the cold current, unleashing a strange storm of dark green ice crystals. However, the moment Ye Yu's twin blades struck down, he vanished again as if by teleportation, narrowly avoiding this deadly pincer attack.

Ye Yu appeared on a huge piece of floating ice shards not far away, his twin swords pointing diagonally, the tips dripping with hot, dark golden snake blood.

The snake king's enormous body writhed and rolled wildly in excruciating pain.

The severely damaged middle head drooped limply, gushing snake blood like a torrential downpour. Its overwhelming pressure deflated like a punctured balloon, instantly shrinking by more than half, replaced by endless rage, pain, and a trace of indescribable fear.

This human... actually managed to injure it! And seriously!
On the Tyrant Feather Pirate Ship, after a brief silence, a deafening roar erupted!

"Captain is awesome!!"

"The Captain is Invincible"

Xiao Ke's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Now! Full firepower! The snake swarm is panicked and their morale is dropping. Go all out and make them even more terrified."

Cannon fire, slashes, flames, frost... the Tyrant Feather Pirates' counterattack erupted like a volcano that had been holding back its energy.

Ye Yu stood on the broken ice, wiping away a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth caused by the extreme burst of power just now. His cold gaze was fixed on the snake king, which was writhing wildly in pain and whose life force was greatly reduced.

He slowly raised his twin swords, and the dark red aura on the blades began to condense once more. Although it was not as powerful as his previous peak attack, the killing intent was even more refined.

"You serpent, your blood stinks." Ye Yu's voice was filled with cold mockery. "The next strike will take your snake's life!"

The snake king's remaining two heads suddenly rose, their four vertical pupils staring intently at Ye Yu, burning with madness, fury, and a trace of fear shrouded in the shadow of death.

It knew that this human was truly capable of killing it; its proud defenses were so vulnerable against the opponent's twin blades.

For the first time, fear truly overwhelmed greed, but what followed was an even more hysterical madness.

"Ye Yu!!! I will kill you! I will kill you!!" The Serpent King's mental state was chaotic and frenzied, "Ten Thousand Serpents Devour Souls!!!"

As it roared madly, the gushing dark golden snake blood did not dissipate. Instead, under the influence of some strange force, it instantly vaporized, turning into a dark golden blood mist that enveloped the heavens and the earth.

The blood mist, carrying a pungent, sweet odor and a terrifying, soul-corroding power, instantly spread out.

At the same time, the blood of all the snakes that died on the battlefield, whether single-headed, two-headed, or three-headed, seemed to be summoned, turning into wisps of blood energy that surged wildly into this dark golden blood mist.

The blood mist churned, emitting a shrill scream like that of countless vengeful spirits. Countless venomous snake shadows, formed from snake blood and with hideous faces, emerged from the mist, carrying the evil intent of devouring souls, and surged towards Ye Yu and the Tyrant Feather Pirate Ship like a tidal wave.

This is the ultimate spiritual attack launched by the Serpent King by squeezing out its own essence and sacrificing all the dead serpents on the battlefield. It is similar to Conqueror's Haki, but even more terrifying.

The battlefield situation changed in an instant! A deadly soul attack enveloped everyone!

Originally, Yang Luo and his pirate crew were panicking and preparing to escape from the back of the sea, but now that they saw this change, their eyes lit up.

"Go, Snake King! Deal a heavy blow to them so we can get in. We don't need to take out the entire Tyrant Feather Pirates crew; kill Ye Yu first."
