Cooperation? (2)

Once beneath the warship, he unleashed his power, and moments later, his right hand transformed into a diamond hand. With a exertion, his hand changed again in a few moments.

His hand transformed into a hand covered in sharp spikes, densely packed like a hedgehog.

"Launch." Fanxin gave a soft hum, and then countless Diamond Spikes burst forth from his right hand, shooting into the hull of the warship.

The impact of the Diamond Spikes was immense; as soon as they shot out, they blasted a large hole in the bottom of the warship. Seawater rushed into the warship, and in no time, the entire ship was filled with seawater.

After Fanxin had dealt with one warship, he followed the same method and launched an attack on four other warships, shooting large holes in the bottom of each of them.

His purpose in doing this was to leave the marines with nowhere to stand, making it difficult for them to exert their full strength.

After dealing with the four warships, Fanxin immediately climbed onto one of them.

He arrived at the warship where Ren Fang and the others were. He watched from the sidelines without intervening, letting Ren Fang and the others fight there. He would protect them from the sidelines, ready to lend a helping hand and rescue them if they encountered any serious danger.

The marines saw him and attacked him relentlessly, but the bullets had no effect on him; he ignored them completely.

This infuriated the marines, and left with no other choice, they took out their swords and attacked Fanxin, intending to kill Fanxin with their blades.

However, Fanxin ignored them and let them slash him with their knives.

After attacking Fanxin for a while, the marines realized that their attacks were ineffective against Fanxin. They were all frustrated and didn't know what to do.

"Stop attacking me, your attacks are ineffective against me." Fanxin smiled and said, "You've all seen it, if you disturb me any further, don't blame me for being impolite."

He deliberately didn't fight back, to let these guys know that their attacks were ineffective against him. If they wanted to fight, they could only attack his men.

Although most of the marines understood, there were still some stubborn marines who refused to believe in evil and insisted on continuing to attack Fanxin.

Fanxin immediately became ruthless, launching Diamond Spikes that defeated all of them. However, he didn't kill them; he had no interest in these small fry.

After Fanxin dealt with those small fry, no one dared to attack him anymore. They understood that trying to defeat Fanxin was futile.

After watching for more than ten minutes, Fanxin nodded slightly. The Su sisters had indeed worked very hard during this time, learning the most basic combat methods. The only shortcoming was that they were a little weak. When the marines slashed with their swords, they were somewhat unable to defend themselves. If they were strong enough, they could have completely blocked them.

However, they are now able to protect themselves, and as long as they don't encounter a powerful colonel, they should be fine.

"Kid, you're pretty laid-back, aren't you? Are you ignoring us?" Just as Fanxin was leisurely watching, a cold voice entered his ears from behind.

"Oh, I thought you'd drowned! So you're still alive!" Fanxin said with a chuckle, without turning around.

He knew who this man was; he must be the commander of the warship, whom he hadn't seen earlier. However, he knew that these guys were no ordinary people to have reached such positions, and drowning was generally not something that would happen to them. He had only said that to mock them.

"We're not that useless, kid. You destroyed four of our warships. What do you think we should do?" the voice said again.

Upon hearing this, Fanxin stood up and turned to look at the people behind him. There were four figures behind him, all dressed in naval uniforms and all holding the rank of colonel.

Two of them were carrying guns, and the other two were carrying knives.

"Are the four of you planning to gang up on me?" Fanxin said with a calm smile.

He showed no fear, for he held the advantage. Most of the warships were submerged, while he was unrestricted, able to fight both on land and underwater. However, the others were different; if they were to fall into the sea, it would be difficult for them to exert their full power.

"Hmph, we don't need to talk about morality when dealing with a pirate. Kid, we're going to attack you together and take you down. If you're scared, you can always surrender," said a colonel with a mustache, wearing black sunglasses, and holding a large sword.

His name is Zhang Yu. He is a colonel at the Marine Headquarters. He is very strong and wields a large sword with unparalleled skill. He is highly valued at the Marine Headquarters.

"What am I afraid of? Since I dared to attack you, I've already prepared myself mentally." Fanxin smiled and said, "Since you're all going to be big shots, then state your names! I don't want to kill nameless nobodies."

"Pretty cocky, kid. Since you want to know, I'll let you die knowing why. My Zhang Han, a colonel at Marine Headquarters," said a tall man holding two pistols. He had a cigar dangling from his lips, but it was already wet. He had fallen into the sea earlier and was soaking wet, so the cigar hadn't escaped the same fate.

"My name is Wang Hai," said a man with a sniper rifle slung over his shoulder. He was of average appearance, loved to drink, and even in the midst of battle, his bottle of liquor was never far from him.

Others might think that drinking leads to trouble, but for him, it was the complete opposite; he felt that drinking made him more accurate in his shots.

"My name is Li Haiquan," said a one-eyed man. He held two knives in his hands, and a hideous scar ran down his face from above his right eye to his chin. His blind eye was probably due to this scar.

"Hey kid, what's your name? We've never seen you before," Li Haiquan asked. He stared at Fanxin for a long time, but he just couldn't remember who Fanxin was.

"Me? Hehe, my name is Fanxin, captain of the Heavenly Soul Pirates." Fanxin said, "It's understandable that you don't recognize me; I only recently formed a crew and set sail. But don't worry, in the near future, I will definitely be famous throughout the world."

"Hmph, kid, you don't have that chance anymore, because you're going to die today," Wang Hai said coldly. He held the sniper rifle in one hand, aimed at Fanxin, and was ready to fire at any moment.

"Who dies is still uncertain." Fanxin smiled and said, "Now that we've exchanged names, there's no need for us to hold back anymore. Let's begin!"

Fanxin twisted his neck and said, "I won't show any mercy. If you're scared, you can leave now, and I definitely won't chase you down. However, if we really fight, you won't have a chance to regret it."

"Kid, you talk too much nonsense." Zhang Han snorted and immediately attacked Fanxin. He brandished his dual pistols and launched a series of attacks on Fanxin. Bullets rained down on Fanxin's body.

Fanxin did not dodge; he simply stood there, allowing the opponent to attack him.

Several seconds later, Zhang Han stopped. He glanced at Fanxin and saw that Fanxin was unharmed, as if he hadn't attacked him at all.

"How is this possible?" Zhang Han said in disbelief.

"Hmph, it's useless. Ordinary physical attacks are ineffective against me. You'd better not use your knives and guns. Attacking me like that won't kill me at all," Fanxin laughed.

"Tch, I don't believe it." Li Haiquan made his move, wielding his twin swords and attacking Fanxin relentlessly. Sparks flew, but he couldn't wound Fanxin. However, cracks appeared in his swords.

"Damn it, what kind of body do you have?" Li Haiquan frowned and asked.

"My body is made of diamond, hehe. If your blade is imbued with Haki, perhaps you can hurt me. But if you haven't mastered Haki yet, then I'm sorry, you're destined to fail today," Fanxin said with a smile.

The Giant Dragon had told him that a diamond body could only defend against physical attacks. However, if the opponent's weapon was imbued with Haki, then he would also have to enhance it with Haki. Otherwise, he too would be injured.

"Does it take Haki to injure you?" Zhang Yu chuckled upon hearing this and said, "Thank you for informing me. Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to kill you."

"Hmm, what do you mean by that?" Fanxin asked, puzzled.

"Because I just learned how to use Haki," Zhang Yu said with a smile. As he spoke, he drew his broadsword, and a moment later, his silver-gray broadsword transformed into a jet-black blade.

He wrapped his Haki around the broadsword. Haki can not only Armament the human body, but also Armament weapons. Weapons wrapped with Haki are much more powerful than ordinary weapons.

You're holding a wooden sword, but if you imbue it with your Haki, it's no less powerful than a steel blade, and it could even cut a steel blade in half.

"Oh, it seems I've met my match today!" Fanxin grinned upon hearing this. He showed no fear whatsoever. Before the Giant Dragon left, it had told him that to cultivate domineering Haki, in addition to rigorous training, he also needed to engage in numerous life-or-death battles.

When people face death, their potential is unleashed, and their Haki can be fully unleashed at any moment.

The other party possessed Haki that made him unable to sense the presence of death. Therefore, he was very excited.

"Hey, you guys, have you learned how to Haki yet?" Fanxin asked, glancing at the other three.

"We haven't done it yet, kid. Don't think only someone with Haki can kill you. If we fight to the death, we can kill you too," Zhang Han said.

"If you don't have any, then get lost!" Upon hearing this, Fanxin Xin immediately activated the Diamond Spikes, injuring all three other colonels and sending them into the sea.

Then, he looked at Zhang Yu and said, "I hope you can give me a surprise. I'm looking forward to fighting you."

"Kid, you're pretty arrogant. Since that's how it is, I'll grant your wish!" Zhang Yu snorted and looked coldly at Fanxin before launching an attack.

Fanxin didn't try to fight back this time, because his opponent had learned Haki, which could potentially harm him. He wasn't going to risk his life.

After dodging, he immediately drew his two swords, one Dragon-Slaying and the other a diamond blade.

The Dragon-Slaying Sword has been sealed by the Giant Dragon, so it can no longer unleash its original power. However, it's still perfectly capable of cutting people down. The Diamond Blade was crafted by himself; diamonds are extremely hard, especially after the addition of Seastone, which further enhances its hardness.

Therefore, both of these swords can block the opponent's greatsword. Even if the opponent's sword is imbued with Haki, it will not be able to cut through his twin swords.

After drawing his twin swords, he charged forward fiercely and engaged Zhang Yu in battle.

The two fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand.

In the sea, the other three colonels watched, furious. They were all seriously injured, their bodies riddled with bloody holes. This time, they had suffered a great loss.

"Damn it, that kid's strength shouldn't be underestimated. We have to get headquarters to issue a warrant for his arrest. If we keep letting him run rampant, who knows how far he'll grow," Wang Hai said, forcing back his pain.

His weapons had no effect on Fanxin; if other colonels encountered Fanxin in the future, they would likely suffer greatly as well.

Therefore, they had to report it up, explaining some information about Fanxin so that headquarters would pay special attention to him. In this way, the navy could suppress Fanxin's arrogance.

"That's right, my twin swords are broken. Damn it, I spent a lot of money to have them made, and they're completely ruined after just a few slashes. I really lost out today," Li Haiquan said dejectedly.

"Alright, let's start gathering intelligence on him now! Then, have headquarters issue an arrest warrant." Zhang Han also agreed to issue an arrest warrant for Fanxin. He felt that Fanxin was a dangerous element and must be eliminated as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.

After discussing for a moment, the three continued to focus on the battlefield.

Fanxin wielded his twin swords with wide, sweeping movements, showing no intention of retreating.

In addition to using a knife, he also continuously unleashed Diamond Spikes to attack Zhang Yu, making it impossible for Zhang Yu to defend against them.

However, Zhang Yu was no pushover. He used his Observation Haki to clearly sense where the spikes were about to strike. Then, he used Armament Haki to defend those areas. As a result, the spikes only hit the Haki and did not attack Zhang Yu's body. He was unharmed.

"Damn it, that Haki is really annoying!" Fanxin said unhappily.

His opponent possessed Haki, allowing him to anticipate his attacks perfectly. To strike back, he needed to be even faster; otherwise, all his attacks would be blocked, and all his efforts would be in vain.

"Hehe, kid, you can't possibly attack me. But I can attack you anytime," Zhang Yu said with a grin. He fought with ease because he had figured out Fanxin's attacks. He could easily defend against them and even launch counterattacks.
