Testing the Sword (1)

He only stopped after hitting the mast.

After landing on the deck, the Vice Admiral slowly stood up. He looked at the Little Fox, his eyes filled with a serious expression.

He was no longer as carefree as before, but became extremely cautious. He had realized that this Little Fox was no ordinary person. If he acted recklessly, he would surely suffer a great loss.

He didn't want to be killed here, so he had to be serious; only then could he survive. Otherwise, he would be killed.

He carried his longsword and cautiously made his way forward. Reaching the bow, he looked at the Little Fox and shouted, "Hey, what was that attack you just made? Why couldn't I see it?"

He was on guard the whole time. But he didn't see anything, and that's why he got hit!

He was very frustrated and wanted to know the reason so he could defend himself against the Little Fox's attack.

"Sorry, I can't tell you." The Little Fox chuckled and said, "My attacks are very powerful, you know. If you don't move aside, you'll definitely die."

Its attacks are incredibly sharp and difficult to defend against. It has even ambushed Admiral, and Admiral have suffered losses from it before. This is merely a Vice Admiral; there is absolutely no chance of him escaping its fierce attacks.

Of course, if the other party moves aside, it won't pursue. It doesn't like targeting the weak.

"Hmph, fine, don't tell me then, do you think I'm afraid? Let me tell you, while your attacks are strange, mine are not bad either. Just wait and see what I do!" The Vice Admiral said with a light snort.

His face was flushed with anger because he hadn't gotten what he wanted. Therefore, he was very dissatisfied and wanted to teach the Little Fox a lesson.

"I'm waiting here. If you've got the guts, come on over!" the Little Fox said dismissively.

The Vice Admiral, enraged, gave a soft snort and prepared to launch an attack.

However, at that moment, Fanxin suddenly came out of the control room and came to the Little Fox's side. He said a few words to the Little Fox, and a moment later, the Little Fox immediately moved aside, leaving the battlefield to Fanxin.

"Hmm, scared? You actually changed your fighter? If you're so tough, then don't change them." The Vice Admiral with dissatisfaction. Although he said that, there was still some unease in his eyes. Because he didn't know what kind of attack the Little Fox would use. The unknown is the most terrifying.

He couldn't figure it out, so he didn't know how to defend himself. Therefore, he had absolutely no confidence.

The Little Fox left, and he breathed a slight sigh of relief. However, he didn't show it on his face. After all, he was Vice Admiral in the navy, and it would be too embarrassing for him to appear terrified.

"You're clearly terrified, yet you're still being stubborn. What can I say to you?" Fanxin looked on without any politeness, directly exposing the Vice Admiral's hypocrisy and leaving Vice Admiral extremely embarrassed.

The Vice Admiral glared at Fanxin, furious. These guys were all showing him no respect, humiliating him the moment they appeared, which greatly displeased him.

"You bastard, what are you doing here! Are you looking for a beating?" the Vice Admiral shouted angrily.

"No, I'm here to test my sword. I just got a new sword, but I don't have a target for it. So, I haven't used it at all. Now that I've run into you guys, I suddenly had a whim to use you as practice. Hehe, you guys won't have any objections, will you?" Fanxin Xin chuckled and said.

He was preparing to test the Seven Star Sword with the Navy. He had obtained the sword some time ago, but had not yet used it, so he was naturally even more unclear about its abilities.

Therefore, he plans to test the Seven Star Sword's abilities now. This way, he will be able to use it more easily in the future.

"What? You want to use us as a test subject?" Upon hearing this, the Vice Admiral's face darkened to an extreme, and he wished he could devour Fanxin.

Because Fanxin didn't see them as opponents, but merely as whetstones. He would use them when he wanted, and discard them when he didn't.

This was unbearable for him. He was Vice Admiral at the Marine Headquarters, whose strength and status were incomparable to any lowly soldier. Yet, in Fanxin's eyes, he was merely a whetstone, which he could not accept.

"Not bad, but I don't know if you guys are strong enough! I'd feel bad if I killed you all," Fanxin said with a worried expression.

He looked as if he was genuinely worried about these people. In reality, he wasn't thinking about them at all. All he could think about was his Seven Star Sword.

Seeing Fanxin Xin's crocodile tears, everyone was furious.

Fanxin was clearly trying to disgust them, and they were furious. They pointed at Fanxin and started cursing.

Fanxin smiled calmly and ignored him. He drew the Seven Star Sword and pointed it at the sky.

A moment later, the Seven Star Sword emitted a bright light that shot straight into the sky. It quickly disappeared.

A few seconds later, seven stars appeared in the sky, hovering high above.

"Hey, are you ready? I'm about to launch an attack." Fanxin said with a smile, looking at the Vice Admiral and the others.

"Hmph, if you want to fight, then fight. Why all the nonsense?" the Vice Admiral said unhappily.

"Alright, since you've said so, you must have taken care of everything." Fanxin Xin nodded, then pointed the Seven Star Sword at the warship where the Vice Admiral was.

Seeing Vice Admiral Fanxin wasn't attacking but only pointing at his warship, the lieutenant general frowned slightly and said, "Hey, what are you doing! Are you going to attack or not?"

He assumed Fanxin hadn't made a move yet, so he became impatient and told Fanxin to strike first.

"Hehe, sorry. I already made my move." Fanxin Xin chuckled and said, "Look at the sky, what's that?"

Upon hearing Vice Admiral, the vice admiral immediately looked up at the sky. The other marines did the same.

At first, they felt nothing. However, after a moment, they were terrified, their faces filled with horror.

Because they saw something huge falling from the sky, much larger than their warship.

If it hits a warship, that would be a disaster. They'd all be finished.

"A star? This... how is this possible?" The Vice Admiral stared, completely stunned, and remained speechless for a long time.

Those were stars in the sky, and yet they were brought down by Fanxin. That's terrifying.

"Hehe, yes, that's one star," Fanxin said. "This is just the first one; there are still six more stars to go."

The Seven Star Sword is incomplete, so it can now summon the stars in the sky to fight for it.

It is the Seven Star Sword, so it can activate up to seven stars at the same time.

He previously had no target, so he was reluctant to use it indiscriminately, fearing it might harm innocent bystanders. Now, things are different here; he can now designate a target and have the stars launch an attack.

"Six more? This..." Upon hearing this, the Vice Admiral's expression changed drastically. If that were true, it would be a serious problem.

"Yes, enjoy it!" Fanxin Xin chuckled, then pointed at the warship six more times, positioning the stars.

He's set the location, and the star will strike that target.

After finishing, Fanxin looked at the Little Black Cat and shouted, "Leave this area immediately, or we'll be affected too."

The stars are vast, and if one were to fall, it would be disastrous; they would all be affected. Therefore, he had to retreat; it was the only way to protect himself.

"Understood." Nodding, the Little Black Cat immediately activated the air cannon. Under the attack of the air cannon, their pirate ship flew far away in an instant.

After landing on the sea, Fanxin flew into the sky, took out a telescope, and observed the warship.

Everyone took to the air, looking over there, wanting to know what happened to the last warship.

Far away.

Seven stars fell one after another, a terrifying sight that completely enveloped the warship. In other words, the warship had nowhere to escape.

They ran outside, and they were sure to be hit. The stars were large and fast, and they couldn't escape before they fell.

Therefore, they only had one option: to wait where they were. As long as they waited there and didn't run to the spot where the star would fall, they would be fine.

However, even so, their situation was still not good. If the stars shifted even slightly, they would be in trouble.

Even if they weren't hit, these sailors wouldn't feel good either, because they would be under immense psychological pressure. If they weren't mentally strong, they would definitely be scared to death.

"Boss, that attack power is too fierce!" The Little Black Cat landed on Fanxin's shoulder and said in surprise.

The stars are so vast, yet this sword can actually manipulate them; it's truly astonishing.

"Yes, but this trick isn't very useful anymore," Fanxin said with a wry smile.

"Why do you say that?" the Little Black Cat asked, puzzled. Its attack power was so formidable, yet Fanxin felt it was useless. It truly didn't know what to say.

"Hehe, if I use it to attack you, I definitely won't be able to hit you, do you believe me?" Fanxin said with a smile.

"I believe you." The Little Black Cat nodded firmly upon hearing this.

It naturally believed it, because it could fly, and it was very fast. It could escape from here completely before the stars fell and go somewhere else.

When it reaches another place, the falling stars can no longer harm it.

"Yes, for ordinary people, a star would be a catastrophe. However, for truly powerful experts, it's not like that," Fanxin said. "If it were me, I wouldn't be afraid. Because I could destroy that star, although it would take some effort. But I would be perfectly fine."

"These things aren't considered top-tier moves by the Four Emperors or the Three Admirals."

Although the attack is powerful, it's useless if it can't hit anyone.

Therefore, Fanxin didn't really like this kind of attack.

"Yes, that's true." The Little Black Cat nodded and said, "However, we can take them by surprise. If that expert is injured, then we can use this attack and finish them off."

"We'll see! But this sword is still very good," Fanxin said. "However, it absolutely cannot fall into the wrong hands. Otherwise, it will definitely cause a huge problem."

He can control the sword, but he may not be able to actually do it. If the person wielding the sword is controlled by the Seven Star Sword, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, he decided that even if he never used it again, he would hide the sword away and never let it appear in the world again.

This sword is dangerous; he absolutely cannot let anyone else get it.

"Okay, you don't need it anymore. Just leave it on the ninth floor of Wolf Valley! It's very secluded there; no one can go up there except you and Ren Fang," the Little Black Cat nodded and said.

"That makes sense, let's talk about it later. Right now, I still need it," Fanxin nodded and said.

After that, they said nothing more and continued to watch the distance. He wanted to see what the final outcome would be.

The star was falling rapidly, and because of its speed, you could see that it was on fire all around it.

This is caused by the friction between stars and the atmosphere. Therefore, it's impossible to imagine how fast stars can fall.

A few minutes later, the star crashed down, and the entire sea was thrown into turmoil. Seawater was splashed dozens of meters high by the impact.

Of course, what's even more terrifying is that the warship was directly smashed away by the star and landed completely within the area where the star landed.

After the warship flew out, it did not land normally, but instead flipped completely over, with the hull up and the planks down.

Even so, the marines did not suffer much damage because they were all familiar with the water! Working on the high seas without knowing how to swim would be very troublesome.

The marines swam out of the sea and back to the surface, still shaken. Six more stars fell from the sky, and the sea was thrown into chaos. The marines fled in panic, scattering in all directions.

Fortunately, the star landed where they had been before; if it had landed where they were now, they would have been utterly dead.

Even from a great distance, they could still see the scene of towering waves; it was truly terrifying, like the end of the world.

"Damn it, they actually have such a powerful weapon, it's outrageous!" The Vice Admiral poked his head out of the water, furious. This time, he had suffered a huge loss. Not only had he lost face, but he had also destroyed the entire warship.

He'll definitely be severely criticized by his superiors when he gets back this time.

"Vice Admiral General, what should we do now?" a soldier swam over and immediately asked.

"What else can we do? Contact headquarters and have them send a warship to pick us up," the Vice Admiral said dejectedly.

This is the vast ocean; it's unlikely they could swim all the way back.

Therefore, they had no choice but to call headquarters and request their support.

"Yes." The soldier nodded, immediately took out a Den Den Den Mushi), and began making contact.

Soon after, everything was settled.

The marines headed towards the location where the star had landed. There were no islands around, only that one piece of land. So, they planned to rest there and wait for the headquarters' warships to arrive.

The stars were enormous; six of them crashed down and completely filled in this area of sea. Now, it's no longer a sea, but a vast landmass.

Once they reached the top, they waited patiently.

"Let's go, there's nothing more to see," Fanxin said. He had already seen the outcome; there was no need to stay any longer.

"They're really lucky; they didn't get crushed to death," the Little Black Cat muttered.

Six stars! That's a huge number. If they fell like that, no one could escape. However, the navy didn't suffer much damage; only one warship was destroyed, and there weren't many personnel losses.

"That's because the trajectory of stars is difficult to change," Fanxin said with a wry smile.

He had previously targeted the warship, so that when the star fell, it would directly hit the warship.

Even if the warships sail elsewhere, the stars will follow and crash down upon them. In that case, none of us will be able to escape.

However, these stars were simply too large and too fast, making it quite difficult for him to change their trajectories.

Therefore, after the warship was thrown away, the star did not follow, but instead landed back where the warship had been. In this way, the crew members who were thrown away were unharmed.

If stars could easily change their trajectories, then the sailors on the warships would have absolutely no chance of escaping.

"Alright, never mind. I never intended to kill them; it was just a test of my sword skills. Since they're lucky, let them go." Fanxin Xin chuckled and immediately returned to the ship.

Although those marines were capable, they were still far inferior to his pirate crew. Two of them alone would have been enough to take down that warship.

Therefore, from the very beginning, he never considered this warship as an enemy, because they weren't qualified.

"That makes sense, let's go then!" The Little Black Cat nodded and returned to the boat. Everyone else returned and took their places.

Before long, they set sail again and headed off into the distance.

Fanxin sat at the bow of the boat, toying with the Seven Star Sword, lost in thought.

Ren Fang walked over and saw Fanxin's silent expression. She was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong? Is something on your mind?"
