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

Chapter 259 Ancient Weapon Pluto
Ahead of Ye Yu, a new spatial distortion had formed, and a new door was condensing.

That door was a chilling dark gold color! It seemed to be forged from solidified blood of greed and endless wealth, exuding a cold, heavy, and terrifying aura that seemed to suck in even the soul.

Above the door is carved a figure crawling on the ground, his hands gripping a mountain of gold coins and treasures, his eyes burning with fanaticism as the gold coins gleam. His body is even beginning to deform from the excessive grabbing.

greedy!

This time, Ye Yu's brows furrowed truly and solemnly for the first time. It wasn't out of fear, but because he sensed a more profound and deadly power of rules contained within, different from the previous levels.

Greed refers to the most primal and irresistible possessive and expansionist desires of living beings, which may manifest in more hidden and deadly ways.

Meanwhile, the outside world.

The atmosphere on the Tyrant Feather Pirate Ship was extremely tense.

Xia Ling, Zhang Tian, ​​and the others stared intently at the churning, deep, blood-red secret realm. Nearly four hours had passed, yet the fluctuations in the mist had become even more violent and unstable, as if something terrifying was brewing.

“It’s been four hours… Brother Yu…” Zhang Tian’s voice was choked with sobs, and her face was pale.

Xia Ling exuded a chilling aura, and the frost that had formed on the deck had spread. Her nails dug deeply into her palms, and she was also nervous.

Xiao Ke said, "Trust the captain. The captain is even stronger now. We don't even know how strong the captain is anymore. Even if it's the Black and Red Secret Realm, which is close to the Red Secret Realm, I believe the captain can get through it."

The dark golden Gate of Greed burst open before Ye Yu, who stepped directly through it, and the scene before him suddenly opened up.

He stood on the edge of a sun-drenched island with fine white sand. However, the sight of this island was enough to drive any weak-willed person mad in an instant!
What lay before them was no longer a cold, golden palace, but mountains of treasure, radiating alluring lights of every color!
Countless gold coins, like a beach, covered the ground and stretched to the horizon, reflecting a dazzling golden light in the sunlight.

Fist-sized pure diamonds, pigeon blood rubies, imperial green jade, deep-sea pearls... all kinds of rare treasures are scattered like worthless pebbles, piling up into small mountains.

Boxes and boxes of gold coins were opened, and brand-new banknotes were gently turned by the sea breeze.

Further away, there were unknown treasures that shimmered with strange energy and were clearly extraordinary.

In the center of these mountains of treasure stand two things that would make any power-seeker's eyes widen in fury!

First, there was a colossal, menacing warship, so large it blotted out half the island's sky, its entire body crafted from an unknown, pitch-black metal! It hovered silently dozens of meters above the ground, its streamlined hull covered with menacing cannons, radiating a terrifying, world-destroying pressure! On its bow, a skull and crossed cannons were clearly visible—the Ancient Weapon, Hades!
Secondly, beneath the Hades warship, in a huge, transparent pool made of pure crystal, a stunningly beautiful woman is languidly soaking in it.

She possessed long, seaweed-blue hair, skin as lustrous as the finest pearls, and a face of unparalleled beauty, exuding an ethereal and alluring charm. Most striking were her deep, ocean-like eyes, seemingly containing the power to control a vast ocean! Her identity was unmistakable—Ancient Weapon: Sea King! She could command all the sea creatures of this world!
Wealth! Power! Beauty! All within easy reach!
What's even more insane is that all of this is protected by only a handful of low-level alien beasts that look clumsy, weak, and like enlarged versions of groundhogs.

They rolled around aimlessly in the pile of treasure, munching on gold coins, completely ignoring Ye Yu's appearance.

"See that, Ye Yu!" A grand, alluring voice echoed across the island, as if the entire world were whispering to him. "Step forward! Take care of those insignificant little things! All of this—endless wealth, world-destroying warships, the goddess who controls the ocean—will be yours! Immediately! Right now! You will possess it all! You will instantly ascend to the pinnacle of this world! No more arduous voyages, no more life-or-death battles; the entire ocean will grovel at your feet!" This voice was like a spell, carrying a powerful mental suggestion, frantically stirring the most primal desires for possession and power within one's heart. Anyone in this situation would likely be instantly consumed by greed, rushing forward recklessly to crush those few obstructive beasts and embrace the ultimate temptation of "ascending to the heavens in one step."

Ye Yu's gaze was indeed drawn to the scene before him. His eyes swept over the mountain of treasure, past the Pluto warship radiating an aura of destruction, and finally settled on the ethereal and beautiful "Sea King" in the crystal pool. His expression seemed to flicker slightly?
These treasures are enough to instantly reach the maximum level. Furthermore, the powerful warship Hades is not only strong itself, but also has such a powerful pirate ship. Moreover, it will gain such powerful subordinates, Poseidon.

Even Ye Yu was tempted.

Ye Yu started walking slowly towards Treasure Mountain, towards Hades, and towards Poseidon.

One step, two steps...

The sand was soft, the sun was warm, and the glitter of the treasure was almost dazzling.

The few "groundhog" beasts seemed to sense something, stopped gnawing on the gold coins, raised their heads blankly, looked at Ye Yu who was walking towards them, and made a few unintelligible "gurgling" sounds, making them seem even weaker and more harmless.

Ye Yu was getting closer and closer to those strange beasts, and to that "apex" that was within easy reach.

Ten meters... five meters... three meters...

He could even see Aquaman's long blue eyelashes trembling slightly in the sunlight.

The seductive voice grew more urgent and fervent: "Yes! That's it! Go over there! Crush them! It's all yours! Now! Immediately! You will be the king of the world!"

Just as Ye Yu was only a step away from those strange beasts, seemingly about to casually smash them into mincemeat—

He stopped.

The slight "fluctuation" on his face disappeared, replaced by an extreme boredom.

"Heh." A soft, almost inaudible chuckle escaped from Ye Yu's lips.

He raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through the metal hull of the Pluto warship, through the alluring exterior of "Sea King," and looking directly at the core of this greedy rule.

"Endless wealth? You get it, and then what? Lie on gold coins and count them?" Ye Yu's voice was terrifyingly calm, carrying a chilling insight into the essence of things. "The Hades warship? Blast an island to pieces, blast the enemy to pieces? And then what? Sit in the ruins and be a lonely man? Poseidon, the sea god? Controlling sea beasts, that's the one I'm least interested in, after all, my combat power is strong enough."

Ye Yu shook his head, his eyes showing no greed, only deep disappointment and disdain.

"This kind of 'apex'..." Ye Yu's tone was full of disdain, "is too boring. So boring that... it doesn't arouse any interest at all."
