Danitz straightened his back and suddenly flipped up from the ground, standing upright.
He looked warily towards the dock, where a thick plume of smoke was rising, a result of his previous battle with Maveti.
The commotion from the battle just now was quite large; "Steel" shouldn't be able to catch up for a while. Danitz secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Almost the moment he felt a little relieved, he heard Gehrman Sparrow's cold, stiff voice say:
"He's here."
"Who's here?" Danitz subconsciously asked, his body suddenly stiffening.
He nervously looked around, trying to find the figure of "Steel" Maveti hidden in the shadows.
After looking around for a moment and finding no suspicious figures, he relaxed again, believing that Gehrman Sparrow was just toying with him.
He opened his mouth, somewhat wanting to curse a few words.
Suddenly, he glimpsed a figure running at extreme speed approaching from the direction he had just come.
His speed was even faster than a Steam locomotive at its peak, leaving a blurry afterimage behind him.
"'Steel' Maveti! He actually chased after me! Is this guy crazy?"
"This guy is a great pirate worth 6,000 pounds!"
As he spoke, a crimson fire glow rose in his hand. Damn it! I hope this cold blooded guy, Gehrman, will be attracted by "Steel"'s bounty, otherwise, I'm no match for that guy at all.
Klein ignored Danitz, who looked a little flustered, and with a serious expression, he threw the suitcase he was holding under a roadside tree to avoid it being affected by the upcoming battle.
This guy is really troublesome, but he's very rich. "Steel" is 6,000 pounds, "Blazing" is 3,000 pounds, he needs to pay me extra, hmm, 10,000 pounds should be enough.
As thoughts flickered, layers of dark golden scales appeared on the glove on his left hand, and at the same time, the pupils of his eyes suddenly narrowed.
His gaze closely followed the rapidly moving figure, and an invisible mental force was suddenly released, the "Frenzy" from a Psychiatrist, directly igniting Maveti's emotions.
A tremendous fear spread in his heart, a fear of the great figure from the Rose School of Thought, and also a fear of the silent, uncontrolled deaths of the crew members on the Tree of Flesh and Blood.
Maveti's head tilted slightly back; the immense emotional fluctuation disturbed his mind and stiffened his body.
His forward lunge suddenly froze, and his body was carried forward by inertia, falling several meters.
Bugs Bunny, who had been thrown under the roadside tree along with the suitcase by Klein, shook its head and stood up. It looked around and pulled out a light yellow paper figure folded from a black cloth pouch slung over its body.
Klein noticed Bugs Bunny's actions and cast a questioning gaze at it.
He only saw Bugs Bunny infuse spirituality into the paper figure, and then flick it out.
The paper figure rapidly expanded and distorted in the air, transforming into specks of starlight shimmering in mid-air.
Immediately, these starlight condensed Leyton's figure within them, though this figure had lifeless eyes and appeared somewhat dazed.
This was Leyton's paper figure avatar left on Bugs Bunny, which could serve as its trump card at crucial moments.
As the paper figure avatar formed, Bugs Bunny felt a peculiar connection establish between itself and the paper figure avatar.
It immediately followed the sensation and extended a paw forward; the paper figure avatar simultaneously raised its right hand, holding its palm in a loose grip, and made a pulling motion backward.
The surrounding houses, streets, clouds... all the scenery distorted at the same time, like a giant curtain being pulled open, revealing the hidden scene beneath.
The original Sea Defense Street instantly became a solitary island, with a bright, pale Moon in the clear night sky above.
Leyton's figure, formed by the paper figure avatar, suddenly became transparent, as if it had turned into a statue composed of countless starlight.
Sizzle!
The statue shattered, transforming into brilliant starlight that surged and instantly filled the entire space, twinkling with points of light and vanishing into the void.
"This is?" Klein looked up at the pale Moon above, a look of confusion in his eyes. A sudden, uncontrollable emotion welled up in his heart; he felt a little homesick!
Bugs Bunny mimicked Leyton's usual gesture, rubbing its chin with a paw, and said in a deep voice:
"Boss created 'Ideal Realm'. He told me to use it after you encountered Maveti, to spiritualize the opponent and find the person behind them."
"He will sense it after I use up the paper substitute and will quickly come."
"...An Ideal Realm isolated from the world?" Klein's thoughts drifted for a moment.
"Spiritualization? This is a trap! 'Blazing' is the bait you prepared!"
"You already knew I would be ambushed by Maveti?"
Danitz and Maveti simultaneously showed shock.
Danitz glared at Bugs Bunny, who was standing beside him; he had never found this rabbit so annoying.
Maveti retreated warily. He tried to awaken his Zombies but couldn't sense them. Damn it! This is a trap, targeting me, no, more likely targeting that great figure from the Rose School of Thought.
"That Lord is in Bayam. If it weren't for the pressure from that Lord, I wouldn't have been so irrational today as to choose to pursue 'Blazing'. If I suddenly die, that great figure will instantly detect the problem."
"You should understand, those skilled in divination are not limited to the Seer Pathway."
Maveti said in a hoarse voice.
The moment he realized he had fallen into a trap, he understood that escaping was almost impossible. He could only try his best to stall for time until that great figure discovered the problem.
His response was an indescribably strong sense of hunger, as if a terrifying Monster lurking in the Darkness was silently watching him.
What a terrifying feeling, who exactly is this guy? Just as the thought surfaced in Maveti's mind, a compressed, incandescent fireball whistled and smashed towards him.
Maveti subconsciously raised his arm, blocking in front of him.
Boom!
The flames exploded, and for a moment, air currents flew, obstructing his vision.
The next moment, the flames suddenly shot upwards, and Klein's figure emerged from the flames, then leaped out.
The glove on his left palm turned golden, and in his eyes, two points of light grew from small to large, from dim to bright, like lightning suddenly streaking across the sky.
"Mental Pierce" from an Interrogator.
"Ah!"
"Steel" Maveti suddenly screamed, as if someone had inserted a small knife into his head and was stirring his gray brain.
The sensation of pain erupted from the depths of his soul, instantly occupying all his thoughts.
Puff! Hiss! Hiss!
Thick, emerald green vines shot out from the ground, submerging Maveti's figure in layers.
At the same time, the Beyonder abilities on Maveti's body erupted reflexively.
Around him, a hurricane blew, and the temperature continuously dropped. Dreamlike snowflakes immediately fell from the sky, and transparent, crystalline ice crystals continuously spread outwards on the ground. The surroundings were instantly covered in a layer of white frost.
Wreaths of pitch-black death aura swirled, causing the vines wrapped around him to wither rapidly, showing obvious signs of decay.
The surroundings were covered in a layer of oppressive gray, and even the wind that blew seemed to be tainted with the wails of resentful spirits, appearing mournful and ear-piercing.
Klein naturally descended from mid-air, the glove on his left palm changing again, radiating a brilliant light like direct Sunlight.
He then spread his arms and leaned back, as if embracing the Sun!
The next moment, a pure, scorching, thick beam of light descended from the sky!
This sacred radiance instantly enveloped "Steel" Maveti, piercing through the withered vines on his body and illuminating his dark skin.
"Holy Light" from a Priest of Light. Silently, Maveti's expression became increasingly distorted and distorted; the skin on the surface of his body showed clear signs of melting.
At this moment, he was like a candle thrown into a fireplace; his hair, flesh, and even spirituality were rapidly melting.
The snowflakes drifting in mid-air abruptly stopped, the ice on the ground rapidly melted, and the withered vines ignited.
Beside him, crimson flames churned in Danitz's hand. After repeated compression, the flames turned from crimson to incandescent.
These incandescent flames flowed down like liquid, forming a whip four to five meters long.
As Danitz swung his arm, the incandescent whip was fiercely flung out, and then it wrapped around Maveti's neck as if it were solid.
The high temperature of the incandescent flames continuously penetrated Maveti's skin, attempting to melt his flesh.
Klein looked at Danitz with some surprise.
This guy was still hiding his strength earlier? This kind of flame seems to have a tendency to materialize; it doesn't seem like a simple flame manipulation ability, but rather a special spell. Is this something a pirate can master?
Klein then withdrew his gaze. He stopped using the Priest of Light's ability. A faint white frost subtly reappeared on Maveti's body, resisting the burning sensation on him and the flames wrapped around his neck.
Ice also condensed under his feet, and his clenched fists carried a decaying aura.
Before he could put up an effective resistance, he vaguely saw two more bolts of lightning emerge from Klein's eyes.
The next moment, "Steel" Maveti subconsciously tilted his head back, blood oozing from his nostrils, mouth, and ears.
He opened his mouth, but with the substantial flames wrapped around his neck, he couldn't make a sound at all.
