Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Advanced Conqueror's Haki
On the endless sea, sparkling like countless luminous pearls, a pirate ship sailed slowly across the water, leaving behind a "pearl foam" trail.
"Captain Charlotte, I heard that Captain John's treasure has appeared. Shall we join forces?"
"Captain John is one of the great pirates of old times. How many Baileys should his treasure be worth?"
"If we can get it, we could spend our whole lives enjoying it!"
"Yes, Captain, such a good opportunity cannot be missed."
On the pirate ship, a group of pirates engaged in lively discussion, all focused on their captain. Although they coveted the treasure, whether to fight for it ultimately depended on his decision.
"Quack quack quack quack, of course, I'm going, idiots!"
A burly man with a big brown beard laughed like a duck. "Captain John's treasure must belong to our Brownbeard Pirates!"
"Gah..."
Suddenly, a long sword sliced through the air, leaving behind a cold light that flashed past.
The pirate captain's laughter stopped abruptly, and then his head shot up into the sky, splattering blood over the surrounding pirates.
"What!!!"
"What... what happened?"
"Captain, the captain has been killed!"
The pirates on the ship turned pale with fright, trembling at the sight of their captain's headless body. The scene unfolded so suddenly that no one could react.
After regaining their senses, they realized their captain had been beheaded.
"Where is the murderer? Find him and avenge the captain!"
"Come out! Come out quickly! I'm not afraid of you!!"
"Damn bastard, show yourself if you have the guts! Let's duel face to face!"
Dozens of pirates huddled together, screaming and shouting into the surroundings. But the louder they yelled, the more frightened they became, their shouts becoming frantic.
"Captain John's treasure? I'm a little interested."
Suddenly, an indifferent voice rang out.
Everyone looked up and saw a handsome young man standing on the mast, looking down at them, his two huge demon wings slowly retracting.
It was Lucifer who had come.
After leaving Failoo Island, Lucifer had flown for more than two hours before finally finding this pirate ship to land on. In the vast sea, it was not easy to find a boat.
Coincidentally, when Lucifer landed, he overheard their conversation.
Lucifer had also heard of Captain John's name. He used to be one of the members of the Rocks Pirates, a notorious pirate in the old days. Legend has it that after the collapse of the Rocks Pirates, Captain John took away the treasures plundered by the crew and intended to keep it all for himself. However, he was killed by his own subordinates in the process of stealing the treasure.
Lucifer still vaguely remembered that Captain John's body was found by Moria after his death and was turned into his zombie general after resurrection; it should be in Thriller Bark now. Since Captain John's death, his treasure had been missing until today.
Over the years, rumors of Captain John's treasure appearing in the sea surfaced from time to time, but they always turned out to be false.
"This... what kind of monster is this?"
"Demon! This man is a demon!"
Dozens of pirates turned pale with fright as they saw Lucifer retract his demon wings. His appearance matched the legendary hell demon.
"Hey, where is Captain John's treasure?" Lucifer asked coldly.
"Y-Yes, it's at Crescent Island," a pirate involuntarily answered.
"Really? Thank you so much."
Lucifer smiled slightly, then waved his hand lightly. "Blade Storm!"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Dozens of flying swords and long knives shot through the air, striking dozens of pirates on the ship, piercing through their chests and heads. The powerful impact sent them tumbling into the sea.
In the blink of an eye, the ship was cleared of pirates, leaving only Lucifer alone.
"Ding! Host kills the pirates and gains 300 killing points."
"Ding! Host kills the pirates and gains 700 killing points."
After killing dozens of pirates, only two system notifications chimed in. Including the pirate captain who fell to Lucifer first, there were only three pirates in this group that could be considered hunting targets. Together, the three provided Lucifer with 4,000 kill points.
"Isn't this a bit too cheap?"
"Trash fish are just trash fish."
"Is that it? Do you also want to fight for Captain John's treasure?"
Lucifer's mouth twitched as he jumped from the mast onto the deck. The pirate ship then changed direction and headed toward Crescent Island.
"System, open the properties panel."
Properties panel:
Host: Lucifer
Age: 23
Devil Fruit: Word Spirit Fruit
Physique: Hell Demon
Armament Haki: Advanced
Observation Haki: Intermediate
Conqueror's Haki: Intermediate
Kill Points: 164,000
Lucifer's wallet was quite full now, boasting a total of 164,000 kill points.
Opening the system store, Lucifer looked for where he could purchase Conqueror's Haki.
"System, purchase advanced Observation Haki and advanced Conqueror's Haki."
"Ding! High-level Observation Haki and high-level Conqueror's Haki have been purchased successfully. 100,000 killing points have been deducted, and the remaining killing points are 64,000."
As the electronic notification sounded, a surge of energy coursed through Lucifer's body.
In an instant, both his Observation Haki and Conqueror's Haki upgraded to advanced levels simultaneously.
