Pirates' Max Level System

"Major Sato, this is the list of people on guard tonight." Major Sato's guard knocked on the door and came in to hand Qin Luo a list.

"Why are there so many people scheduled tonight?" Qin Luo asked knowingly, acting like someone who claimed to have been hungover all day.

"Sir, you don't know, a big incident happened this morning. Thousands of people died in the outer fleet. Several warships were completely wiped out, including a major general. It is said that the demons under the sea are reaping lives. Sir, you must be more careful." The guard said with lingering fear, and did not forget to show off in front of Qin Luo.

Qin Luo once again underestimated the power of rumors. The death of nearly a thousand people and a major was turned into the death of several thousand people and a major general.

"Is this true?" Qin Luo wanted to laugh but pretend to be shocked.

"How could this be false? The entire naval fleet knows about it. Vice Admiral Tsuru and Vice Admiral Garp both came to inform us to increase vigilance at night. Marshal Kong also said that there will be more vice admirals patrolling at night, so everyone should not worry." The guard looked like he was going to get angry if he didn't believe it.

"In that case, let everyone pay attention tonight and be more vigilant on patrol. I will also join in the vigilance tonight." Qin Luo felt that he had to find a reason to participate tonight.

At this time, Sengoku, Garp and Vice Admiral Tsuru were having dinner on Sora's car, the "Marine One".

"Sengoku, where did you go this afternoon? I haven't seen you since the investigation this morning. It's such a big deal." Luffy's family are all big eaters. Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru were so annoyed by the things that they could not eat. There were already a pile of empty plates next to Garp's table.

"Just take care of yourself. You don't need to worry about Zhan Guo. I haven't seen you help in any way all afternoon." Vice Admiral Tsuru said as he glanced at Garp from the side.

Because of the concern that Garp, the unreliable big mouth, might accidentally let the cat out of the bag, the death of the two colonels was not made known to Garp. Vice Admiral Tsuru was covering up for Sengoku.

"Hahaha." It was Karp's old routine, using laughter to cover up his embarrassment.

"How's it going over there, Xiaohe? Is there any progress in the investigation? Do you know what kind of monster it is?" After being interrupted by Garp, Zhan Guo felt a little better and asked about the investigation progress of Garp and Vice Admiral Tsuru.

"No progress. This monster is very powerful and left nothing useful. But because of this, I already have some lists. I guess it's one of these. But the monsters on the list should not appear in this sea area."

As he spoke of 093, Vice Admiral He handed a list to Zhan Guo, and the name of the Skeleton Demon Fish was clearly on it.

"They are not simple monsters, tsk tsk tsk." Zhan Guo muttered as he looked at the list.

"That's it." Lieutenant General He was interrupted when he said this.

The clear and melodious singing once again resounded throughout the entire naval fleet.

"It's the song of the sirens. Let's go. This matter doesn't seem that simple." Zhan Guo immediately stood up and pulled Garp, who was holding a plate, out together.

When Zhan Guo and others arrived outside, many generals and soldiers on the warships had already gathered on the deck.

"Do you know where the singing comes from?" Seeing Zefa, Zhan Guo walked up.

"Wait a minute, Kizaru has gone to investigate." Not long after Zefa finished speaking, a yellow light flashed and quickly came to the side of Sengoku.

"Have you found the mermaid, Kizaru?" Zhan Guo asked before Kizaru's figure appeared.

"I can't find it. The sound I hear is the same everywhere, and the fog is so thick that I can't see anything."

In less than a moment, the siren's song suddenly changed. If it was pleasant and mysterious before, the song now revealed desolation and solemnity.

"An ominous song. It seems that the people who come tonight have bad intentions." The expressions of the navy commanders became solemn as they listened to the song.

Chapter 388: The End of Friendship

"You damn sirens actually dare to provoke the navy with your singing. You are courting your own death." Akainu, who had been holding back his anger in front of Sengoku, Zephyr and Kong Kong for a whole day, seemed to have found an outlet for his inner dissatisfaction and anger.

"The Great Spitfire."

Akainu took off from his own warship next to "Marine One". In the mist, Akainu's body turned into magma and emitted a blazing red light like a small sun.

Akainu naturally couldn't sense the location of the Siren, so he just attacked the sea area around the navy fleet.

Countless lava meteors with long tails of flames streaked across the sky above the naval fleet, and then fell onto the sea surface, causing a violent explosion.

Akainu's outburst caused a huge noise, as if an ammunition depot had exploded. The dense explosions were compressed into a short period of one or two seconds and sounded simultaneously.

A large amount of sea water in the sea area near the naval fleet was splashed eight or nine meters high. The dripping sea water soaked the entire naval fleet like rain, and even the fog was blown away a little, but it immediately returned to normal.

Unfortunately, Akainu's attack was unable to stop the sirens' song. Except for the sound of the explosion that could temporarily cover the sirens' song, after the sound of the explosion, the navy fleet was once again shrouded in the sirens' shrill song.

The sirens can clearly transmit their singing to the navy fleet from a great distance. In such a fog, it is undoubtedly a pipe dream for Akainu to hit the siren.

Akainu's attack did not help interrupt the siren's song. On the contrary, the waves caused by Akainu's attack had a significant impact on the entire naval fleet.

Because Akainu's attack came suddenly, it broke the calm of the sea area where the navy fleet was located. The sea surface suddenly became turbulent, causing the navy warships that were already very close to sway left and right on the sea. Many warships collided with the warships beside them before they could control themselves.

At one time, no less than 100 naval ships suffered considerable damage due to collisions with each other, and some naval soldiers fell into the sea. Even most of the unaware naval forces heard the explosions and thought a battle had taken place.

For a moment, the entire naval fleet was in chaos.

"Ah, damn Siren, I will punish you." Akainu, who was suspended in the air by Moon Step, became more and more angry when he saw that his previous attack was completely ineffective against the Siren's song. He did not notice at all that the navy fleet had suffered losses and was in chaos because of his actions.

After saying that, Akainu was ready to attack again. The previous fight had used up 50% of his strength. This time, he planned to use all his strength to blast out the mermaid, the rat hiding in the sea.

Marshal Kong also appeared next to Sengoku and Zephyr at this time. Kong saw it all, from Akainu's attack in deep space to the chaos caused by the navy. Now, Akainu didn't show any sign of restraint and was even more aggressive. Was he going to sink the navy fleet before he stopped?

Seeing that Sora Akainu's face was getting worse and worse, Zefa thought to himself that something was wrong. Out of concern for Akainu, he didn't think much about it and shouted at Akainu to stop him, so as to prevent Sora Akainu from getting angry and making things worse.

"Akainu, what else are you going to do? Look at the damage you just caused to the navy fleet, you stupid idiot."

Zefa's words were urgent and loud. Because he spoke in a hurry, although he avoided the punishment from Kong Gukong, there was some anger and scolding in his tone. Because the voice was very loud, many navy soldiers could hear it clearly.

As soon as Zephyr spoke, Akainu broke free from the control of anger. When Akainu came to his senses, he naturally knew that his previous behavior had caused trouble, and quickly dispersed the new round of "Big Fire" condensed in his hand.

Akainu avoided bigger mistakes and punishments with Zephyr's reminder, but Akainu did not feel any gratitude to his teacher Zephyr for this. In his current state, Akainu only felt that his teacher Zephyr was becoming more and more unhappy with him.

At the very least, he would criticize him, and at the worst, he would insult him in public. Akainu felt that Zephyr had become increasingly dissatisfied with him recently. He was simply nitpicking and criticizing him no matter what he did.

Just this time, Akainu just wanted to catch those sea monsters. Although it caused some trouble to the navy fleet, there was no need for Zephyr to scold and insult him in public in front of so many navy men.

Akainu is about to become the new admiral of the navy. Doesn’t he have any face?

"How could Zephyr humiliate me in public like this? He has never treated Aokiji like this before. Since Zephyr dislikes me so much, I don't want such a biased teacher anymore. I will sever our relationship as master and apprentice, and neither of us should bother with each other anymore."

Akainu thought angrily, then glanced at Zefa, flicked his sleeves, ignored Zefa and the others, and landed on his warship, never to show up again.

"Akainu, you bastard." Zephyr thought about how he had kindly helped Akainu avoid punishment from Marshal Kong Kong, but not only was he not appreciated by Akainu, he also got a slap in the face from Akainu, and he immediately became furious.

Zefa knew that he had not said much just now, but what was wrong with a teacher scolding his disciple? Could it be that he, Zefa, was asked to apologize to Akainu?

Apart from this incident, Zefa felt that he had done nothing wrong. As for the teacher apologizing to the students, if Zefa really did that, how would he teach other navy officers and be an instructor in the future? So Zefa decided to never care about Akainu, the ungrateful and untameable idiot.

So, the two former master and apprentice, Zephyr and Akainu, although neither of them announced it, had already severed their relationship and there was no longer any relationship between them as master and apprentice.

All this was beyond the imagination of Sengoku, Garp, Sora and others in the navy. In just a few days, Akainu and Zephyr had become so incompatible that they all thought that the two were just having a bad temper.

Qin Luo, who was the only one who made everything happen, was as clear as a mirror and smiled secretly.

"How are the arrangements for the patrolling generals going?" As Marshal Kong Kong gave the order, the navy gathered on the deck were asked to disperse. Before leaving, Kong Kong asked Vice Admiral He about the patrol.

"It has been arranged. The number of generals participating in the patrol has doubled." Lieutenant General He answered truthfully.

"Okay, we must be more vigilant at night. I have a bad feeling." Gang Gukong sighed.

The siren's song didn't continue, and stopped after a while. Singing with this ability would also consume the siren's energy, so Qin Luo naturally wouldn't let the siren sing all the time. Instead, he sang for ten minutes every hour, switching back and forth between various tunes, and always controlling the enchanting power of the siren's song.

Chapter 389 Time Trap

Just like the story of the boy who cried wolf, Qin Luo wanted to make the navy accustomed to the sirens' song and make them think that this song only had a harassing effect.

And it is true that sometimes it may take a person a lifetime to adapt to something, while other times it only takes a few hours.

The sirens' song, which appeared every hour, was more of a delight to the navy than a nuisance. Its graceful, ever-changing voice could be clear and melodious, depicting the joyful lives of fishermen; or subtle and mysterious, like the tragic and heroic love story; or lingering and gentle, like the call of a parent to their wandering child...

In the end, except for those who couldn't sleep because of the sirens' singing, the rest of the sailors treated the singing as a radio broadcast and a timer alarm clock. Even the bored sailors on guard duty used it as a joke.

"I think those sirens must be starving. They've been singing for hours, but haven't attracted any food. Their voices are a little hoarse. I feel bad for them."

"Go away, what do you know? I deliberately sang this song in a hoarse voice so that the song would be more emotional."

"You're bragging again. You even know music. I'm dying of laughter."

"Hahahaha..." Inside the wheelhouse of a warship, the conversation between two soldiers on night shift caused a burst of laughter from the sailors on duty nearby. During the boring duty process, such bragging and joking were the greatest pleasure between sailors and soldiers.

However, it can be seen from this that even ordinary soldiers and sailors are no longer worried about the sirens' singing.

"Major Sato, this is the tea you requested."

Qin Luo thought that he had directed a big drama, but he didn't participate in it. What a pity. Therefore, Qin Luo announced to the people on the warship in the afternoon that he would also participate in the alert tonight.

After Qin Luo announced this, the guard who had been flattering "Major Sato" also volunteered to keep watch with Qin Luo.

Qin Luo did not refuse and agreed with a smile. Anyway, he was still short of someone to help him prove his alibi tonight. Now that someone came to his door, there was no need for Qin Luo to make any arrangements.

"Okay, thanks. What time is it now?"

Qin Luo closed the book and pretended that he couldn't find his watch. After searching his body for a while but couldn't find it, he casually asked the guard.

In fact, this is normal. Naval generals may have to experience battles at any time. Watches, such precious timepieces, cannot withstand the rigors of battle, and watches are not cheap. Therefore, few naval generals wear watches on their hands, and not many even wear pocket watches.

"What about the time? It should be just twelve o'clock. A new round of siren songs has just sounded." The guards naturally did not have watches, but the pattern of the sirens singing every hour for ten minutes each time had obviously been mastered by most "smart people".

"Oh, it's true." After the guard finished speaking, Qin Luo happened to find his watch and took a look. The time was around twelve and three.

At this time, Qin Luo placed a table and chairs on the small platform on the second floor of his warship deck. At this moment, there were only Qin Luo and the guard here. Qin Luo left his watch on the table so that the guard could also see the time.

After the guard confirmed it, Qin Luo did not take the watch back, but continued to leave it on the table.

In fact, the entire warship has been controlled by Qin Luo and is trapped in an illusion, but there is a difference between being trapped in an illusion and the real situation. This guard will naturally be questioned as a witness to his alibi. If someone finds out that something is wrong because of the illusion, it will be troublesome.

Therefore, Qin Luo still spent some effort to use psychological suggestion to make the guard accidentally notice that the time on the clock in the cafeteria was the same as the time on Qin Luo's watch when he went to the kitchen on the warship to change Qin Luo's tea. Both were correct, and then he determined that the time pattern of the siren's singing was also correct.

But in fact, since twelve o'clock, Qin Luo has used the Samsara Eye to notify the sirens to make some changes to their singing.

First, some slight charm was added to the singing for the first time. This level of charm would not cause a big effect, nor would it attract other people's attention. It only had one effect, which was to make people's thinking become clumsy and dull.

This way, many people wouldn't notice that the siren's singing time was always five minutes earlier, and those on duty would just feel sleepy. Qin Luo couldn't think of anyone else who would notice this except the person who had been sitting in front of the clock.

At least in Qin Luo's observation, Zhan Guo and Gang Gu Kong, who were still in the office, did not notice these things.

The sirens' song, heralding the arrival of four o'clock in the morning, sounded again. At this time, there was no one else awake except those on duty and patrolling. How could these people have watches on them?

"It's four o'clock, Major?" The guard was obviously tired after standing all night and yawned.

"Yeah, why do I feel that the steak we had tonight was a little stale? I'm going to the bathroom." Qin Luo stood up, greeted the guard, and walked towards the bathroom.

Under normal circumstances, the guard might have asked attentively whether he wanted to call the ship's doctor or accompany him. But now the guard was really tired. He didn't get much rest yesterday, and today he stayed with Qin Luo all night. At this moment, his eyelids felt like they weighed thousands of pounds.

After making sure Qin Luo had left, the guard fell asleep leaning against the wall.

However, the guard never expected that Qin Luo would come back after he fell asleep. After Qin Luo confirmed that the guard was indeed asleep, he was still worried and hypnotized the guard with Sharingan to ensure that the guard would not wake up in the middle of the night.

"It's 3:40 now, and there's still half an hour until 4:10, which is enough time." As Qin Luo finished speaking, he moved to the side, and the ability of the Overlord of the Sea was activated. Qin Luo had already arrived on the left side of the naval fleet.

"Hi, how are you?" Qin Luo greeted the naval general in front of him.

The rear admiral was patrolling his area when he heard someone calling him. He froze in amazement, wondering why someone would greet him at such a time. Turning around, he saw a naval officer he had never met before, a major from his uniform.

"Do we know each other? What are you doing here now?" asked the Vice Admiral with some confusion.

"Hello, dear customer, Xiecheng Travel is giving you a free ticket to hell." Qin Luo, with a friendly professional smile, kindly and politely cut off the major general's neck with the navy's standard long sword.

With a flick of his hand, even the not-so-sharp navy standard long sword in Qin Luo's hand could cleanly and neatly chop off the head of a major general without making any sound.

Chapter 390: Beheading in the Mist

When the rear admiral realized that something was wrong and wanted to sound the alarm, it was too late. He opened his mouth but no sound came out. As the rear admiral's vision spun, he lost consciousness forever.

With two "splashes", the major general's separated head and body fell into the sea, splashing a little water.

Because his physical body was at the maximum level, Qin Luo's sword was as fast as lightning. Even though the navy's standard long sword was not sharp enough and could not cut the enemy into two pieces like the top swordsmen, and the enemy could not react and survive for a few seconds, at least not much blood was splashed, and the slight smell of blood could not drift far in the fog.

"This major general is quite thick-skinned, but what a pity." Qin Luo said it was a pity, but he was thinking in his heart that he was too arrogant just now. If he met a timid and cautious general, he might have sounded the alarm as soon as he heard his voice. If that was the case, tonight's plan would be ruined.

Qin Luo put away his contempt. There were still four rear admirals and brigadier generals in charge of patrolling this area, as well as between fifteen and twenty colonel-level officers. If he continued to act recklessly, he would probably fail.

Qin Luo quickly locked onto the remaining naval officers on patrol through his rolling eyes.

Qin Luo quickly approached, then covered the mouth and wiped the throat from behind, and used extremely skilled moves to quickly eliminate the naval general who was left alone during patrol.

"Why haven't the major general and his men come yet? Didn't we agree to have a midnight snack together?" On a naval fleet's watchtower, a brigadier general and a colonel were patrolling the surroundings from a high place. There was a thermos bowl at the brigadier general's feet, and it seemed that the midnight snack he mentioned was placed in it.

In the past, high places like watchtowers were the most suitable places for guarding. However, this time, due to the fog, the visibility on the watchtower was extremely low. Therefore, except for a few people with special abilities who could see through the fog, no one would choose to guard on the watchtower.

"Brigadier General Hai, we are on patrol now. Please don't engage in passive resistance or slackness. If an accident occurs, none of us can escape responsibility." The female colonel on the side reprimanded the brigadier general righteously.

"Okay, okay, Colonel Fili, I think the Major General will definitely praise you when he sees how serious and responsible you are. But it's already this late, and if anything was going to happen, it would have already happened. It's been a calm night, and I'm almost bored to sleep."

The brigadier general named Hai was obviously not hearing the scolding from the female colonel for the first time. He did not care at all and was not angry about the female colonel's "insubordination". He just sat on the ground, leaning against the wall in the middle of the watchtower, and said while tapping his legs.

"Then don't come to my watchtower for supper." The female colonel was furious at the rogue behavior of a brigadier general one rank above her, but she was helpless. She had experienced this situation countless times. Then, after complaining, the female colonel ignored him, her eyes gleaming slightly as she scanned the surroundings.

It is obvious that the female colonel is one of the few people with special abilities who can see through the fog. The female colonel's eyes have dynamic vision and the ability to see better in the fog. This is her innate special ability rather than some kind of devil fruit ability.
