His power has reached its limit, and in Captain Kao's opinion, there is only one way to surpass it, and that is... the Devil Fruit!

It is a secret treasure of the sea. Eating it can give you great power.

There is no need to think about the nearly immortal and powerful nature-type devil fruit.

That is not something I am capable of touching.

There are only two kinds he can get.

Even if it is not a superhuman type that can give people superpowers, even if it is just an ordinary animal type, as long as Kao eats it, he will be able to gain enough strength to expedition to the Grand Line.

The starting price of the Devil Fruit is 100 million Beli. To be on the safe side, he specially saved up 300 million Beli just for this leap to a higher level!

Kao felt that he had realized the true meaning of the world. In this ferocious sea, the only way to live a comfortable life was to be evil, more evil than everyone else around him, and more unscrupulous.

If you follow the rules, you will fall into the spider web of fate and you will never be able to climb out!

And he, who is so vicious, will move towards the peak step by step!

With hope for the future, Captain Kaa personally counted the Baileys one by one.

For a pirate captain who aims to be the 'worst', he doesn't trust anyone except Bailey, who will never betray him.

Clatter. Clatter.

The sound of counting money echoed in the room. This sound could calm down Kao's sometimes manic heart. And just because his heart calmed down, he suddenly felt a sense of disharmony.

The hands that were counting the money stopped unconsciously and his eyes turned to his assistant.

There is no deputy captain on this ship, and he only has this assistant who is not in the right position.

"Did you feel it?"

"What?" The assistant who used to work as an accountant for a nobleman and was spared by Kaa because of his talent in finance and helped him manage wealth was a little confused.

"Quiet." Captain Kaa narrowed his eyes, and the jagged scars on his face twitched slightly.

At this moment, when the two were no longer talking, there was no sound except the sound of the sea and waves outside the window.

Captain Kao's ship is an old ship.

Captain Kaa's goal is the Grand Line, and this old ship obviously cannot withstand the wind and waves of Upside Down Mountain.

In his opinion, this ship will be abandoned sooner or later as it cannot keep up with the times. After he obtains the Devil Fruit, he will replace it with a small, sturdy ship and streamline the crew. He does not want to bring a bunch of trash near the Grand Line.

Captain Kao tried to save money wherever possible, and the soundproofing of this old and dilapidated ship was very poor, and even the captain's room was not much better.

Normally, even if it's a little lower, there should be some noise coming over.

But today...

"You, go out and take a look."

Captain Kaa winked at his assistant.

The assistant with gray hair and wrinkles on his face did not realize the problem. Not knowing what his boss was thinking, he did not refute him, but stood up and walked straight to the door of the captain's room.

He was already accustomed to Captain Kao's insecure neurosis. As an assistant, in addition to helping Captain Kao manage his wealth, he also had some unknown duties.

For example, for all the meals delivered to the captain's room, the assistant had to eat a little of each first. After an hour, if the assistant was free, Captain Kao would start eating.

There are many things like this. In the assistant's opinion, what happened today was just a "daily tantrum" of the captain.

I'm just going for a patrol, what kind of risk could there be?

After opening the door and taking two steps, the assistant was stunned.

Because he saw a wall.

A wall...made of human limbs and corpses!

Chapter 259 Death is always one step ahead

"...Kulan?"

After the assistant walked out of the captain's room, there was no response for a long time.

Half a minute later, Captain Kaa softly called his assistant's name.

But the only response he got was silence.

Captain Kaa's eyes narrowed again. Everyone around him knew his temper and would not do anything joking or deliberately make him angry.

Because when he is angry, only the pouring of blood can extinguish his anger!

and so……

Looking at the open, dark door, the cautious Captain Kao did not just walk in without any precautions.

Instead, he reached into his bosom and pulled out a small round mirror from his lining pocket.

As a captain who has suffered psychological trauma due to past experiences and is used to judging others by himself, he seems to have some paranoid complexes. He always carries all kinds of strange things with him to prepare for various emergencies.

He held the round mirror tightly and concentrated his attention, then gently threw the round mirror in his hand towards the door, while his eyes were always fixed on the surface of the round mirror.

Then he saw it.

A headless body, blood soaked his clothes, and the red blood kept flowing down, dyeing his hair red, yes, hair.

The head of the corpse was held in the corpse's arms, and the warm red color ran across the cheek that revealed horror.

The corpse was none other than the assistant Kulan who had just left!

He died quietly...!

But this was not the reason for Captain Kao's pupils to shrink. What really made him feel cold all over was the wall of corpses behind Kuran that filled the passageway of the hold!

In the wall of corpses, he saw the remains of the ship's first mate, second mate, and the boatswain and navigator!

Although the scene only flashed by, Captain Kao was sure that he was not seeing things!

Click!Click!

Two different voices sounded almost simultaneously.

There was a sound of the small round mirror thrown out by Captain Kao falling to the ground, and the mirror surface shattered into several pieces under the impact.

There was a sound of the wooden window shattering as Captain Kao smashed the observation window of the captain's room with his body.

The moment he saw the scene, Captain Kaa instinctively started his action before the mirror even fell to the ground.

run away!

As the captain, he is very clear about the strength of his crew members.

The first mate, the second mate, and the boatswain, although the strength of these three people is weaker than himself, the difference is not outrageous. If the three of them work together to surround and kill him, it will take some effort for Kao to deal with them.

But these three people didn't even make a move to resist, and they became a pile of body parts along with many crew members.

Captain Kao didn't know why they became like this, but he knew that the existence, or thing, that could easily kill these three people could also easily kill himself!

Therefore, Captain Kao, who was always smart and capable of action and decision-making, instantly made the decision to "escape".

The ocean is very scary. In this world with disordered magnetic fields, there will always be all kinds of extreme weather on the ocean. Even in the relatively calm four seas compared to the Grand Route, there will be no shortage of extreme weather.

The dangers of the ocean are not only the weather, but also the creatures that are larger than ships, the sea kings!

Even for a powerful veteran sailor, falling into the sea is a very dangerous thing.

But no matter how dangerous it is, it is safer than staying on that ship!

There was nothing wrong with the decision Captain Kaa made.

Unfortunately, he was still a little slow.

How could that tall figure, who had come all the way to kill them, let the last living being on the ship escape from his hands? !

Captain Kaa, who was falling into the sea, suddenly felt an itchy neck.

He subconsciously touched his neck, and then a thin thread-like feeling came over him, a feeling that was very familiar to him.

……hair?

These two words were Captain Kaa's last thoughts in this world.

Because in the next moment, the thin thread instantly tightened.

Pfft!

There was a sound of someone falling into the water, and a headless body fell into the sea.

"Twenty million Baileys, Captain Kao Lerant." Retracting the hair that was infused with the sublimated power of black life, the tall figure pushed open the wall of corpses, looked into the eyes of the dead heads, and spoke softly.

In this world, not just on this ship, many pirates have a strange habit, which is that they like to collect their own wanted posters.

Li Zhong held a thick stack of wanted posters in one hand and a long string of heads strung together by hair in the other.

Now, the last vacant spot in this "long string" has its owner.

"Then, it's time to deal with this." Li Zhong glanced at the body parts scattered around him.

These body parts came from hundreds of vicious pirates.

Li Zhong repeatedly tested his two newly awakened supernatural powers on them, namely the power of spiritual sublimation and the power of life sublimation.

That's why the bodies are so mutilated.

Li Zhong did not name these two powers, but simply called them that, because Li Zhong knew that these two powers were extremely easy to learn and there must be many people in this world who could use them, so there was no need for him to name them randomly.

Although Li Zhong has now awakened supernatural powers, they are not very strong.

When fighting with others, Li Zhong can use his instinctive fighting skills to exert extraordinary combat power.

But he had no way to rely on these two forces to fight against the mighty natural force of the entire ocean.

If Li Zhong wants to return to civilized society, he still has to rely on this big ship under his feet.

He needs to drive the boat to find an inhabited island.

Li Zhong didn't want to spend this journey, which took an unknown amount of time, with a pile of stinking corpses that might even breed viruses and plagues.

So every time Li Zhong killed a pirate, he would take his body with him and go kill the next one.

As time went by, the number of corpses Li Zhong carried increased.

By the time he had killed everyone and only the captain was left, there were so many corpses around him that they blocked the passage of the cabin, forming a thick 'wall of corpses'!

Li Zhong glanced into the captain's room and his eyes lit up.

“That’s convenient!”

Captain Kao is a man with some paranoid complexes, so the location of his captain's room is quite special. On the one hand, his captain's room is very difficult to get to, and one has to go through twists and turns, just like walking through a maze to get there.

On the other hand, his captain's room was very close to the outer wall of the ship. As long as the observation window of the captain's room was broken, he could face the sea directly, making it very easy to jump into the sea and escape.

And now, the big hole that Kaa had made with his body had another use.

Throwing away corpses!!

Chapter 260 Pirates are attacking?

This is a world with a very strange structure.

On this planet, most areas are oceans, and the only continent that is connected together is in the shape of a ring. If you look down from space, it looks like a glass ball is wearing a ring of the right size.

And this 'ring' is not one, but two.

The 'Ring' of the other planet is what the people of this world often call the 'Grand Line'.

The two are like a cross, intertwined on this planet.

The first half of the Grand Line starts from the Upside Down Mountain until it hits the ring-shaped Red Earth Continent. The second half starts from the Red Earth Continent again until it hits the Red Earth Continent again.

The route is surrounded by doldrums on both sides, so ordinary ships cannot pass through. The first half is called Paradise, and the second half is called the New World.

The ocean of this world is cut by these two rings into four areas that are difficult to communicate with each other, namely, the east, west, south and north seas.

The area where Li Zhong is now is Beihai.

According to the little useful information Li Zhong obtained from the brain of the original owner of the corpse, the strong people and treasures in this world are constantly concentrating on the Grand Route, while in the vaster Four Seas, there are no strong people worthy of note. Even if there are, they basically all come back from the Grand Route.

Therefore, Li Zhong's next plan is to find a populated place, prepare supplies, go to the more developed areas of the North Sea first, brush up on the common sense of the world, and then head to the Grand Line.

"That's true, but sailing the boat is a bit difficult." Li Zhong glanced at the nautical chart in his hand.

His knowledge other than that of the extraordinary was not affected at all, and he could understand a nautical chart like this one at a glance.

But he discovered that part of the navigation knowledge he had learned in other worlds was not applicable in this world, because the extreme weather at sea in other worlds was at most storms and tsunamis.
