The Last Sentinel

"That alien bastard, he's all talk and no action!"

"Running so fast, hahaha!"

"Coward! This guy calls himself a veteran pirate on the Grand Line? He's not even as good as us newbies!"

Inside the cockpit of the Red Iron Fist, Hua Xiaobai laughed uproariously as the Billy King appeared as if by teleportation.

The three Billy brothers looked very unhappy when they saw Hua Xiaobai and his friends.

They now realized that this group of guys was actually entering the Grand Line for the first time!

Damn it, they've already taken off like this on their first trip into the Grand Line. If we give them some time to develop, wouldn't they have wiped out all three Star Pirate Kings and then faced off against the invincible fleet head-on?

No, they're already at war with Hydra, one of the three major space pirate kings!

Moreover, it was Hydra who took the initiative to issue them the challenge!

This kind of treatment for newbies is just ridiculously pretentious.

Which planet has a newbie who, right after leaving the starting village, gets locked onto by a boss and challenged to a duel, with the boss then coming to interact with them?

This is incredibly impressive!

That's outrageous!

At this moment, Ye Feng stood in the cockpit, looking through the porthole at the three Billy brothers opposite him.

Brother Eighty whispered, "Boss, these guys look a bit like Neanderthals!"

Old Liu said, "It's not just similar, it's almost identical. However, their muscles seem overly developed, as if they've undergone some kind of 'Nine Dragons Infusion' training, resulting in their muscular appearance, while Neanderthals look more normal."

Ye Feng said calmly, "There's nothing strange about that. The biggest factor that led Neanderthals and humans to diverge was that Neanderthals chose a different path in the divergence of carbon-based life. They chose amino elements, and amino elements are common in the universe, as abundant as hydrogen and oxygen elements. It's normal for amino life to appear. Rather than saying they are like Neanderthals, it's more accurate to say that Neanderthals are like them."

Hua Xiaobai crossed her arms and said, "If what the boss said is true, doesn't that mean that all six ancient human species on Earth have similar counterparts in the universe?"

Ye Feng glanced at Hua Xiaobai, "So what if we find them? So what if we don't? They're all heretics. For heretics, there's only cleansing."

Below, A-Yu suddenly screamed, "Long live the Human Alliance! Cleanse the heretics, burn the starry sky, may martial fortune prosper, Awooo..."

Everyone looked at Ayu, who was tied to the spaceship pillar, bound hand and foot.

[Star-talking Syndrome] At first it was nothing, but in the middle and later stages, oh my god, it was completely insane.

Ye Feng waved his hand and said, "Xiao Bai, why don't you take the brothers and talk to the Billy brothers and find out more about the basic knowledge of the Grand Line and the universe?"

"Understood!" Hua Xiaobai waved his hand. "Everyone, come with me! Let's chat with them for a while!"

"Let's go, let the boss rest for a while!"

Soon, only the deranged A-Yu and Ye Feng remained in the cockpit.

Ye Feng looked at the command console display screen, where a series of messages were sent by the green-skinned orc: "Boss, I'm too full, damn it, I'm too full. I may need at least thirty hours to evolve! Or even more."

Ye Feng asked, "Is it those three 2.0 civilization spaceships that are holding it up?"

The green-skinned orc said, "No, no, boss, those three large spaceships aren't strictly speaking 2.0 spaceships. They've only undergone defensive modifications by the 2.0 civilization. A spaceship mainly has five attributes: defense, attack, speed, energy storage, and architecture. Only a spaceship whose five attributes have all been modified and upgraded by the 2.0 civilization can be called a 2.0 spaceship. Those three spaceships can at most be called level 1.2 spaceships, only 0.2 levels higher than a level 1.0 spaceship."

Ye Feng asked, "As you said, what level will you be after completing the upgrade?"

The green-skinned orc said, "Estimated level 1.1-1.2!"

Ye Feng frowned and said, "After consuming so many spaceships, you've only leveled up this little!"

The green-skinned orc said, "This is already fast! The food ahead is truly enormous!"

Ye Feng finally understood why Jerry showed no reluctance whatsoever when giving him the key; it was more like a smile of satisfaction at getting rid of a troublemaker.

So I'm the one who got dumped!

But now that I've thought about it, returning the product is out of the question; the green leather bag is already tied to me!

Fortunately, while there may be nothing else on the Grand Line, there are plenty of spaceships to choose from!

If I wipe out all the spaceships on the Grand Line, it will be enough for my spaceship to advance to a Level 2 civilization spaceship.

Just then, A-Yu on the opposite side seemed to wake from a dream, and shouted loudly, "I've got it! Hahaha! I've got it this time! A new ultimate move!"

Ye Feng walked up to A Yu, looking at the mentally ill man with a hint of helplessness, "What have you figured out?!"

Ah Yu's face was flushed, his long beard flying wildly. "I gazed at the dark matter starry sky, and the carbon element in my body mutated. I... I comprehended a new killing move, more ferocious and ruthless than [Slaying Hua Xiong]!"

Ye Feng chuckled and asked, "Really? What's your name?"

Ah Yu exclaimed excitedly, "【Kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of your own】!"

Ye Feng blinked. "Kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of your own? Is that considered a killing move?"

Ayu said, "This is truly a killing move! It's definitely a large-scale area-of-effect attack! Compared to the limited-use one-on-one skill like 'Slaying Hua Xiong,' which only allows you to change someone's name, 'Killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own' is a powerful, area-of-effect attack!"

Looking at A Yu, Ye Feng was speechless. Why the hell am I getting entangled with a lunatic?!

Ye Feng smiled. "Yes, you're right. I believe you!"

Ayu said, "Actually, I was able to comprehend the ultimate killing move thanks to that sacred bronze token, the one you gave me, boss! Do you remember it?"

Bronze token?

Ye Feng remembered; it was Yuan Tiangang's Sanxingdui relic, the Hundred-Household Token.

Ye Feng found this token rather useless after using it last time. It only allows for attribute conversion. If I switch to spirit, others will attack me with strength. If I switch to strength, others will abuse me with spirit.

Moreover, even after becoming a physics major, Ye Feng didn't have any particularly effective killing moves.

Rather than constantly changing, it's better to remain a regular mage, at least you'll still have a high level of proficiency in your mental-based special abilities.

Later, Ye Feng felt the token was useless, so he asked who wanted it. The three brothers of Taoyuan exchanged their merit points for the token, and it seems that King Liu of Hanzhong transferred the token to A Yu.

Ayu exclaimed excitedly, "That token, after entering the dark matter universe, merged with me. Then, I felt the call of my ancestors, entered meditation, and began my comprehension. I comprehended the technique 'Kill a thousand enemies, lose eight hundred of your own,' a super killing move no less powerful than 'Slaying Hua Xiong'..."

Just then, a notification sounded from behind: "This is Billy, hello Mr. Mad Dog, the Hydra fleet will arrive in ten minutes!"

Ye Feng patted A Yu on the shoulder, turned around and left, "Be quiet for a while, I have to go to work!"

But Ah Yu kept babbling on and on, constantly saying that "killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own" was a true signature move, a super supernatural power...
