Pirates' Max Level System

"I guess I succeeded. But it seems we got some other good gains as well." Doflamingo seemed to be playing a riddle. His hand was touching the replica of the ancient book on his waist, and his eyes were always looking at the direction where Taotu left.

Qin Luo? If Doflamingo heard correctly, the Liuyun Pirates member just now called out Qin Luo's name. Qin Luo and Liuyun are the two most popular names on the sea recently. If you don't know these two people by now, you are really ignorant.

Moreover, the conflict between Liuyun and Qin Luo is no secret among various forces.

However, it is now unclear how much truth there is in the rumors of discord.

The members of the Liuyun Pirates called out Qin Luo's name. Does this mean that after Liuyun's death, Qin Luo will take over Fishman Island, or is it that the discord between these two people has always been a disguise for outsiders to see?

Regardless of the situation, it indicated that Qin Luo would soon intervene in the battle. According to the existing intelligence, Qin Luo was as powerful as Whitebeard. With such a variable, the outcome of the Fishman Island War was unclear, and the outcome was uncertain.

His Don Quixote family also had to re-strategize immediately and had to prepare a way out for the family in case the united forces were defeated.

With this in mind, Doflamingo immediately returned with Vergo. The situation was urgent, and Doflamingo had forgotten about searching for the Ryugu Castle vault.

By the time the two returned to the harbor, Fishman Island's defenses had already been weakened. Without much ado, Doflamingo and Vergo returned to their ship without anyone noticing, just as they had quietly departed.

The defense line set up by Fishman Island at the port has basically collapsed, and most of the fishman soldiers have been driven out from the defensive offensive.

Finally, Neptune sounded the retreat signal, and the surviving fishmen and members of the Sun Pirates began to retreat towards Ryugu Castle.

Seeing the flare, Tsunade breathed a sigh of relief. As one of the last high-level fighters to enter the battlefield, she had been under great pressure. At the same time, Tsunade had to deal with several powerful guys, which consumed a lot of chakra.

Itachi, Nine-Tails, and Whitebeard all left without hesitation, and Big Mom and Kaido had no intention of forcing them to stay. The one who was most unhappy was probably Hidan.

Hidan finally managed to obtain Katakuri's blood just a second before the evacuation signal was given. It would be strange if Hidan was happy to evacuate before the evil god's curse ritual even began.

However, he was powerless because everyone retreated. If he didn't leave, he would probably be chopped into pieces by the swarming enemies. Even if he didn't die, it would be very troublesome.

Hidan gritted his teeth, retracted the long string from his sickle, gave Katakuri a stern look, and left. Now Hidan wanted to have a serious conversation with Tsunade about why they were retreating. If she didn't give him a good reason, Hidan would show her what a Tang Sanzang was like.

The allied forces had intended to pursue the retreating fishmen, but were stopped by Doflamingo, who wanted to rest and regroup first, denying the enemy an opportunity to take advantage.

Are you kidding? Doflamingo needs to arrange his retreat route during this period of time, so how can he let these people chase him in such a hurry?

During the precious halftime break, both Fishman Island and the allied forces seized this opportunity to rearrange their tactics.

Chapter 493: Rest and Fight Again

If you don't rest, you won't know. Once the casualties on all sides are counted, it turns out that the war losses have reached an unacceptable zero point.

Although the combined forces completely overwhelmed the Fishman Island defenders in terms of both numbers and soldier quality, thanks to the fearless self-explosion of the Fishman soldiers and the entanglement of their high-end combat power, the combined forces suffered a frighteningly high number of casualties.

The factions that had suffered the most casualties had lost half their forces in the previous battle. If they continued to lose, it wouldn't be a question of whether they could share in the profits, but rather whether they would still be able to survive after taking Fishman Island.

Not to mention that a large portion of these deaths were caused by wrong decisions and accidental injuries made by senior management.

However, no one dared to mention this matter, as if no accidental injury had occurred.

There was no other way. The two super bosses, Kaido and Charlotte Linlin, were furious. No one was tired of living and dared to put the blame on these two bosses.

During this time, the Don Quixote family quietly moved their ship to the exit of the underwater tunnel. If the coalition forces were defeated in the end, the Don Quixote family's ship would immediately take the family members through the tunnel to the Chabao Archipelago.

Doflamingo remembered that the area above was currently controlled by the Whitebeard Pirates. Even if he were captured by the Whitebeard Pirates, it would definitely be a thousand times better than falling into the hands of the fishmen.

Even though the coalition forces suffered heavy casualties, the casualties of the Fishman Island soldiers, as the weaker party, were even greater.

In the recent battle at the harbor, the allied forces had nearly wiped out all the young mermaids on Fishman Island. With such a hatred that nearly wiped out an entire clan, Doflamingo didn't think the mermaids would show any mercy.

And if you're just fighting for your life and death the moment before, and then you tell the other side to treat prisoners well and talk about international conventions and stuff, do you think they'll believe you? Anyone who believes that is a fool.

While the allied forces were taking the time to rest and recuperate, inside the Dragon Palace City, the evacuated fishmen soldiers sat on the ground, paralyzed on the ground, with expressions of joy and despair on their faces at having survived the disaster.

They no longer have any thoughts about winning the battle and are numb to death. What keeps them fighting is hatred rather than faith.

Neptune hadn't arranged for these soldiers to meet with the civilians hiding in Dragon Palace City. With such heavy casualties, a meeting would only cause a commotion. Neptune couldn't tell anyone about Qin Luo's ability to resurrect the dead, so he had to go out and appease the soldiers and civilians himself.

In Neptune's study, the same room Doflamingo had just sneaked into, several members of the Ryuun Pirates were receiving treatment from Tsunade.

The Nine-Tailed Fox suffered the most serious injuries, but the tailed beasts had a very strong vitality. Most people would have fallen to their knees after suffering such injuries, but the Nine-Tailed Fox was still alive and well.

The Nine-Tails had managed to heal some simple injuries during the battle by relying on the vitality of its own chakra. Tsunade's job was to reconnect the broken bones and stimulate their healing.

Momotogi and Luju were also in the study. Except for Roger who was not convenient to walk around, almost everyone was there.

While everyone was there, Momosuke told everyone about the strange things that had happened before. She asked some soldiers, and they also heard the noise when Doflamingo opened the mezzanine of the table.

"Is that so? It is indeed possible that someone took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Ryugu Castle. His purpose is nothing more than assassination, theft or placing bombs. Ruju, have you and Roger found anything?" Tsunade thought for a moment and said that they must be cautious at this time.

Luju shook her head. She and Roger lived deep in the palace of Ryugu Castle. Doflamingo had not gone there, and Roger's observation Haki did not detect him.

"Is that so? Itachi and Nine-Tails, I can only ask you to check whether the people who sneaked in are still in Ryugu Castle, or what they have placed in Ryugu Castle." Tsunade decided to let Itachi and Nine-Tails check Ryugu Castle.

"Hey, Tsunade, can't you let me rest for a while? I've been injured so badly, and I'm a wounded soldier now."

The Nine-Tailed Fox rolled over on the ground, not wanting to get up. Perhaps because it felt it wasn't convincing enough, it continued, "Then don't treat me like a police dog, okay? I'm a tailed beast, eh? At least I'm a fox."

The Nine-Tailed Fox, which was lying down, was lifted up by Itachi.

Because Tsunade's response was no, she stopped and waved her hand innocently. This action directly pulled the stitches in Tsunade's hand, and the other end of the thread was still on Hidan's wound.

"Tsunade, please be serious. There is someone here with a pierced heart. Stop talking. I feel your saliva splashing into my wound." Feidan said.

"It's no big deal." Tsunade quickly sewed up the hole in Hidan's chest at the heart position.

"Isn't it healed now?" He patted the newly stitched area to show off his skill. Fortunately, it was Hidan. If anyone else had been tormented like this, even if the wound was stitched, they would have died.

Hidan was immortal, and didn't react to Tsunade's blow. Ruku, standing beside him, was sweating profusely. Was this the Tsunade Roger mentioned as a master of Chinese medicine?

……

Gao Chao didn't realize that the danger was real. Lu Jiu was determined not to let Tsunade be her doctor unless it was absolutely necessary.

After a while, Itachi and Kyuubi came back after searching the place. Itachi shook his head to indicate that he had found nothing.

"It seems that the man has left. Let's talk about this later. Thanks to Whitebeard, we have delayed long enough, and the time agreed by Qin Luo is coming. We will block the gate of Longgong City later. You can fight whoever you need to fight before, just delay them."

Everyone around nodded. This plan was not difficult, all they had to do was hide and it would be done.

"Wait, I get angry when you mention this. Couldn't you have retreated later? I just got the blood of that sticky rice guy." Feiduan remembered that he hadn't asked Tsunade why she retreated yet.

"The defense line has been broken and you still don't retreat. You are waiting to die." Tsunade retorted to Hidan. Hidan was a little embarrassed. He really didn't pay attention to the defense line.

"Glutinous Rice Man? You are talking about Katakuri from Big Mom's pirate group, right? At least remember your opponent's name." Itachi said.

"What, that guy, Feiduan, you haven't dealt with that yet? Can you do it?" Kyuubi had an expression that said you are too weak, I can deal with the other party in just a few moves.

These guys, "dong dong dong" Feiduan felt that as they spoke, three knives were inserted into the chest that had just been sewn up.

Chapter 494: Feiduan's Script

No, living in this world is too tiring. After receiving 10,000 points of true damage from Tsunade, Itachi, and the Nine-Tails, Hidan had the idea of ​​lightening his body. Although this idea was a bit unrealistic for him as an undead.

"What do you know? I did all this to please the Evil God, and yet you interrupted my ritual just as it was about to begin." Hidan, who could lose a fight but not an argument, rose up in resistance. He couldn't care less and instead blamed others for not being able to kill Katakuri.

"Then why don't you just complete the ceremony now?" Tsunade said.

Ha, you think the Evil God Ritual is a bar credit, you can pay later? If that were really possible, wouldn't Feidan just sit there and wait for someone to deliver Big Mom's blood and then kill her remotely?

This is sorcery, not witchcraft. It requires not only fresh blood, but also a battle.

If it weren't for not wanting to reveal too much about his own abilities, Hidan would have really wanted to give Tsunade a good introduction to the evil gods. Well, there's nothing wrong with that statement.

"Then why don't you take the other person's blood?" Itachi knew some of Feidan's special forbidden techniques and made a reliable suggestion.

Reliable, sister. Hidan thought of the method he had just used to obtain Katakuri's blood, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The memory replayed in his mind like a slide show.

At first, Feidan's random attacks had some effect, and Katakuri was thrown into a panic. However, after realizing that there was no problem with his observation Haki, Feidan's random attacks were no longer effective.

Next up is Hidan being unilaterally outmatched by Katakuri. Foresight is like a cheat in a battle of the same level, and of course, immortality is also a super cheat. The health-seeking cheat and the perspective cheat—these two cheaters are about evenly matched in terms of their cheating power.

Fortunately, Katakuri didn't know about Hidan's immortality in advance. He was just cautious and didn't want to be attacked by Hidan.

Even a fool's miscalculations may lead to his own success. After being covered in wounds by Katakuri, the clueless Hidan finally understood the extent of Katakuri's ability to perceive the future, that is, how far into the future he could foresee.

A complete script was generated in Feiduan's mind. He even thought of the name of the script, which was called "To Survive from Death", a name full of bad taste.

The beginning of the script is no different from the original, with a life-for-life approach.

Scythe Technique: Hook Life. Hidan hurled the bloody March Scythe at Katakuri, its speed so fast that it left a trail of blood-red afterimages.

It was useless. This situation had been practiced countless times. Katakuri easily lifted the trident in his hand and knocked the sickle away. While Hidan lost control of his weapon, the sickle, Katakuri flew close to him.

"Sticky Rice Ball Stab", Katakuri's move is to turn his arm into an extremely twisted rice ball to wrap the trident. The toughness of the rice ball makes his arm rotate continuously and stab towards Hidan, just like a drill bit, even the hardest objects will be drilled through instantly.

The air was cut by the sticky spear, making a "sizzling" sound. Under Katakuri's gaze, the sharp blade of the sticky spear pierced into Hidan's chest.

With a "bang", Feidan disappeared, replaced by a piece of wood. At the moment when the sharp blade pierced through his chest, Feidan used the substitution technique he had prepared long ago.

Katakuri didn't look surprised at all. Although he didn't understand the principle behind this strange ability, he had seen it once in the future foreseen by his Observation Haki, and he had been surprised at that time.

"Scythe Technique: Moon Grasping." The reappearing Hidan came to the position behind Katakuri. The flying sickle, driven by chakra, drew an arc and slashed towards Katakuri again.

Katakuri turned around calmly, his right hand still in the state of thrusting, and raised his left hand in the air, just in time to catch the rope of the flying sickle.

With the pull of Katakuri's left hand, the Bloody March Scythe's slashing direction changed and was thrown three meters away.

Feidan discovered that Katakuri liked to rely on his ability to foresee the future to completely block or seize the opponent's weapons, thereby breaking the enemy's momentum.

How could that idiot Hidan have figured this out? Anyone who's had their weapon taken away by Katakuri over a dozen times, each time discarded like trash, would be very familiar with this. And let alone Hidan, who was practically bursting with frustration and anger...

This act of grabbing the opponent's weapon is both a means for Katakuri to strike his enemies, but it also reflects his arrogance. This is also applied in Hidan's script.

"I got it, die." Feiduan had expected the sickle to be taken away. He was waiting for the opportunity when Nuotuan would thrust forward and grab the weapon with his hand.

Hidan pulled a twenty-centimeter black stick from the left hem of his clothes. With a flick of his wrist, it instantly transformed into a one-meter-long spear. Hidan rarely used this weapon, usually using it to inflict self-harm when casting curses.

The distance between the two was not long, and in a flash, the black spear was already against Katakuri's chest.

Hidan's grinning face formed a sharp contrast with Katakuri's calm face.

This is impossible. Isn't the opponent afraid of death, or has he even foreseen this? Looking at Katakuri's calm and composed appearance, Hidan's expression changed and became a little panicked.

Katakuri has seen this kind of expression change too many times. Almost everyone who thinks they have successfully ambushed him will have this expression on their face. He is tired of it.

A large number of sticky tentacles emerged from Katakuri's body, binding Hidan from all angles, especially his joints and arms. Everything was prepared in advance, the number and angle of the tentacles were optimized, and the black spear stopped at 5.9 Katakuri's chest and could not penetrate.

"I really thought too much and spent so much time on you." Katakuri said.

As Katakuri finished speaking, he thrust the stick in his right hand into the restrained Hidan's chest, pinning him to the ground. With a sizzling sound, like a rag being pierced, a large amount of blood spurted out.

When Hidan's eyes became dull, Katakuri confirmed Hidan's "death". Just as he had foreseen in the future, the enemy lay dead on the ground.

However, the death of the enemy made Katakuri feel uneasy, a feeling that was very unfamiliar to him.

Oh no! Katakuri felt a sound of breaking air behind him. Even though he tried his best to avoid it, he was still injured in the left waist.

Chapter 495 This is making things difficult for me

Hidan was greedy, and wanted to cut Katakuri in half with the bloody March Scythe that flew back, but he also knew that things would not go so smoothly. As long as he could get Katakuri's blood, it would be fine.

Katakuri had to dodge so hard that the Bloody March Scythe only slashed past his left waist. The seastone-filled sickle blade pierced Katakuri's flesh.

Katakuri's waist quickly turned red. This was the first time he had been injured since the start of the battle. Katakuri stared blankly at Hidan's body lying on the ground. He was very sure that he had pierced Hidan's heart and smashed it into pieces. The fist-sized hole was still bleeding.

But what about that attack just now? Could a weapon without its owner still attack automatically? Could the enemy be a user of some special Devil Fruit? Katakuri eyed Hidan's corpse warily until his observation Haki foresaw a surprising scene, and he finally understood the reason.

The Bloody March Scythe returned to Hidan, carrying Katakuri's blood. 19 lay quietly on the ground. Hidan was as dead as ever, unresponsive. Without a heart, his breathing was unnecessary.

Until a minute later, the familiar Feidan came back.

With a somersault, Feidan stood up from the pool of blood, with sticky blood dripping from his body.

"Glutinous Rice Man, you were so proud just now, but I finally hurt you. Your perception of the future is limited, right? If thirty seconds is not enough, I will act for one minute. I really have a talent for being an actor, hahahaha."

Feidan laughed wantonly. The previous minute was too much for him to hold back due to his impulsiveness.

For a full minute, Hidan pretended to be a corpse in order to deceive Katakuri's Observation Haki, which allowed him to briefly foresee the future. The other party's attention was also focused on him, and Hidan's corpse role was so real that his heartbeat, breathing, and pulse stopped at any time.

Seeing Hidan's face bent with laughter, Katakuri's eyes were filled with shock, as if he were looking at a mentally retarded person. Yes, no normal person would choose to pay the price of their heart just to scratch him, not even the undead.

In Katakuri's eyes, he had won this time. The minor injuries had clarified Hidan's abilities and shattered his heart.

"It seems that you haven't felt how terrifying I am. Don't worry, the heart, just stab it. The head is fine too, as long as you can do it later." Feeling Katakuri's unfriendly eyes, Feiduan said disdainfully. After getting the blood, he basically had victory in his grasp.

He placed the scythe blade, stained with Katakuri's blood, to his lips, licking the blood of his enemy. He could almost foresee Katakuri trembling in death. He thought about what method he would use to deal with Katakuri later, whether to poke his eyes, bang his anus, or both.

Haha, the more he thought about it, the more relieved he felt. Feiduan couldn't wait to break Katakuri's arrogant face.

But at this moment, a flare rose in the air, and the Fishman Island began to retreat. The crazy look on Feiduan's face became stiff again.
