"This was the last thought of the young pirate, apparently sobered up after being scratched on the neck, and saw Su Chen's face clearly at this moment!
Then, he was annihilated in the intense white light, taking a false bullet that stuck to his face.
'Is the power still too weak?' Su Chen shook his head and said, at present, it could only smash one person's head. It was not at the level of the Ten Blades in the original story, nor could it instantly destroy a city.
This was the exclusive face-breaking ability he had just used, similar to Shinigami's Shunpo, Navy's shaving techniques, or Naruto's Shunjujutsu. One was space-based, another ninjutsu-based, and the others were physical arts.
In his pale green eyes, he saw a white ray of light floating out from the headless body of the young pirate.
"Soul Absorption!" This was his soul. He subconsciously used this broken face technique, capable of devouring human souls. The ray of light immediately moved toward him.
After being absorbed into Su Chen's body, he felt the fusion degree had increased, but not much. Obviously, the pirate's soul was too weak.
What about the souls of the Four Emperors and generals at the Qiwuha level? No doubt, this was the path and method for his growth. If he could devour souls without limit, maybe he could surpass the second stage of returning to the blade and reach the third stage with wings, as seen in the game.
He could see the souls, and this was Xu Xu's method of detecting soul circuits, similar to the domineering and informational powers in Pirates. The difference? Knowledgeable and domineering—he could predict the future. The soul circuit could even detect past events and the paths traveled based on spiritual traces.
But soul absorption was still too weak. The Tenth Blade, also the Zeroth and Tenth Blade, could absorb most of the souls of Karakura Town, even those still alive with weak spiritual pressure.
"Brother, well done!" The villagers encouraged him. They had no sympathy for the pirates, and some even spat at their feet.
"Let's keep going!" Su Chen said to the villagers, and then he collided head-on with the White Skull Pirates. Remember, the captain's bounty was 90 million Baileys, and his soul should not be weak.
"Since the angel does nothing, then I, a vicious person, will carry out justice!" Su Chen said.
"Boss, that guy hasn't come back for so long. Could something happen?" the second-in-command of the White Skull Pirates asked. White Skull was a little worried; after all, the young pirate was his subordinate, and the relationship was not shallow.
"What can happen to a group of slaves locked in iron cages? You are just too suspicious!" White Skull said. He was a big, fat man with thick, greasy hair, reminiscent of Blackbeard.
At the same time, there was something wrong in his heart. It was his second-in-command who was so suspicious that someone could survive in this cruel world of pirates, and even become the leader of a pirate group with a bounty of 90 million! At least he was famous in the second half of the West Sea, though not as famous as Kidd, a newcomer recently known, whose bounty was almost 1 million at a young age.
"Bang!" The next moment, the door leading to the bottom of the ship was kicked open, and more than ten people rushed out.
"How did you slaves escape? If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
White Skull shattered the wine bottle and roared angrily. The pirates raised their guns and knives viciously. In their eyes, the escapees were just old, weak, sick, and disabled.
Su Chen walked out slowly from behind the crowd and said coldly:
"Skeletons are the belief of pirates! Even the Four Emperors, One Piece Roger, and powerful pirate groups use skeletons to decorate, but I directly use it as a flag."
In his pale green eyes, the overlord-like Reiatsu burst out like ripples. Although it was only 10%, it was more than enough to deter pirates with a 90 million bounty.
"Shoot, this kid can't stay!" White Skull roared, but the weak-willed pirates had already laid down; only two or three still had guns.
A few rays of light flowed into Su Chen's body—they were their souls—and the fusion rate increased to 11%, leaving only six or seven people.
The White Skull wondered, how many people could there be in a pirate group with a 90 million bounty? Even adding rookies, probably only about ten.
"I surrender!" Two or three pirates, realizing Su Chen was not simple, threw their knives to the ground and knelt.
"Cowards!" White Skull yelled as he cut them in half with a single knife. Even among mighty pirates, he would not allow rebellion at any time.
"Destroy humanity!" Su Chen said. His pale fingers flickered with light, charging a false bullet ready to fire.
Seeing this, White Skull rushed toward him with a sword in hand.
"It's just one person, get rid of him!" The White Skull roared. He swung the sword, but Su Chen was pierced through the head by a false bullet and fell slowly. The unloaded knife slashed his 11% steel skin.
There were only small wounds; 11% fusion was not enough.
"We surrender!" The remaining pirates were terrified. Could the boss really be defeated if confronted directly? There was no one to stop him.
It is human nature to fear death, and it is not shameful. But if you do everything to survive, you deserve to be left behind.
"I'll leave it to you guys!" Su Chen said to the villagers. Then he went to the dining table to eat meat and drink because he was so hungry. He knew what awaited them without even looking.
"Has the fusion degree increased to 12%?" Su Chen murmured after closing the Dimension Template System. Slowly, he returned to the appearance of a normal person. Compared to before, he was less handsome—obviously influenced by Ulquiorra's temperament.
Devouring the soul of Bailey White Skull with a bounty of 90 million had only increased fusion by 1%, and there may only be so many pirates with a bounty over 10 million!
That night, Su Chen sat on the bow of the boat, enjoying the cool breeze, feeling very comfortable. As for the pirates, the villagers had hung all kinds of torture devices and did not go down to kill them, planning to hand them over to the Navy to enforce the law.
"After all, if you kill someone, you are no different from pirates! Swordsmanship? You can practice it!" He patted the open box on the table next to him and saw a very delicate black long knife inside.
