The Siege (1)

It soon relayed the message.

"Alright, they'll be here in two hours at most," the Little Black Cat said.

"Well, in that case, we'll just wait here," Fanxin nodded and said.

After that, they said no more and waited patiently there.

Two hours later, Wang Yan and his group arrived by boat.

Fanxin immediately boarded the ship. Once aboard, Fanxin used the prescription the silver snake had given him to begin treating everyone.

Surprisingly, its house was quite effective; it actually cured the damage caused to everyone by the silver snake's silver light.

"Why did you suddenly call us back?" Wang Yan asked, puzzled.

"We now know the secret of those silver lights," Fanxin said. "So, those silver lights are actually the power of the silver serpents. The longer a silver serpent lives, the stronger it becomes. The Serpent King's silver light power is the most powerful."

"However, although their abilities are unique and powerful, these silver snakes are very docile and rarely attack people. The reason they attacked everyone was because they had no other choice."

"Some people saw their power and wanted to possess them. They used them as raw materials for weapons, and the attacks we've suffered are their idea. They're using us for experiments."

"Oh, I see. So what should we do?" Wang Yan asked.

"What we need to do is take all those silver snakes back and set them free."

Fanxin said, "Don't worry! I got the antidote from them. The silver light of the silver snakes won't have any effect on you afterwards. Even if you are attacked, there won't be any major problems."

He possesses the power of the Snake King, which is far more powerful than the abilities of those silver snakes.

Therefore, nothing will definitely happen to them if they go there.

"I see, I know what to do now," Wang Yan said.

"Yes, you should lead everyone to attack right now. You must retrieve all the silver snakes. If you can't retrieve them, you absolutely cannot let those people take them away," Fanxin said.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Immediately afterwards, she led thousands of robots and dozens of her brothers to the island and headed towards the center.

Fanxin then instructed the Little Black Cat to surround the entire island with hundreds of thousands of robots, preventing those guys from taking the opportunity to escape.

Since they couldn't escape, they had no choice but to obediently release the silver snake.

Wang Yan led everyone forward, unstoppable.

The tall figure's men were quickly defeated, and all their weapons were taken from them.

Of course, the silver snake among the weapons was also freed.

They advanced step by step, and finally besieged the castle.

A tall figure emerged, glanced at them, his face extremely grim, and said, "You are that man's subordinates, aren't you?"

"That's right, we are his subordinates, so what?" Wang Yan nodded and said.

Although she didn't know how the other person recognized her, she wouldn't deny it, because it was a fact, and she had no reason to deny it.

Even if the other party recognizes her, she will not back down. Because their goal is clear: to reclaim all the silver snakes.

"You broke your promise! That kid said he wouldn't interfere here anymore after I told you the method," the tall figure shouted.

He was panting heavily; clearly, he was enraged by Fanxin's broken promise.

"Heh, your method doesn't work anymore. So, our captain has no choice but to return here again."

Wang Yan said, "Alright, I won't waste any more words with you. I'm here for only one purpose: to retrieve all the silver snakes."

"Whether you hand it over to me or not is up to you."

"Hmph, these silver snakes are all my treasures. There's absolutely no way I'll give them to you. Woman, listen to me carefully, you'd better not cause any trouble here, or don't blame me for being impolite." The tall figure coldly shouted.

This is both a threat and a warning.

If Wang Yan acts recklessly, he will not be lenient and will make Wang Yan pay a heavy price.

"Hehe, I think we should forget about it. We've already decided to attack this place. Your threats are really useless against us," Wang Yan said with a smile.

No matter what reasons this guy had, their goal was to get the Silver Serpent back. Since the other party refused to hand it over, they had no choice but to take action.

"Fine, since you're not afraid of death, then I have no choice but to wipe you out," the tall man roared.

"It seems you are truly stubborn. In that case, I have no choice but to take action," Wang Yan shouted.

Having said that, she launched the first attack.

She made everyone fly into the sky immediately, reaching great heights. As for herself, she turned this land into lava.

Everyone around the tall figure was killed.

His house, too, was completely turned into molten lava by the lava.

"Hehe, hand it over! Otherwise, it'll be your turn soon," Wang Yan said with a smile.

"If you do that, those silver snakes will die too," the tall figure said.

"Heh, really? Let me tell you, our boss said that if we can get those silver snakes back, then we'll take them back. If we can't, then we'll just have to let them die. Their death here is a kind of homecoming for them," Wang Yan said nonchalantly.

If Fanxin doesn't let her go all out, she'll be in a real bind. This guy is threatening her with the silver snake; she'll definitely be hesitant and timid.

However, now that Fanxin has already granted her power, she no longer needs to do so.

"It seems you've really made up your minds." The tall figure said coldly.

"Yes, we've already made up our minds. So, I advise you to return the items. Otherwise, I won't let you off easily," Wang Yan said with a chuckle.

"Hmph, I will not compromise. Since that's the case, then we have no choice but to take action," the tall figure shouted.

With that, he drew his weapon and began attacking Wang Yan.

He fired repeatedly, countless silver lights appearing and heading straight for Wang Yan. Wang Yan glanced at them but did not dodge, letting the silver lights hit her.

Fanxin had already told him that the silver light posed no threat to her.

Therefore, she didn't need to hide at all.

"Hmph, you're courting death. Since that's the case, I'll grant your wish." Seeing that Wang Yan didn't dodge, the tall figure chuckled and said.

He was convinced Wang Yan was doomed, because these silver lights were incredibly powerful. He was confident he could handle Wang Yan.

However, despite the tall man's cold smile, Wang Yan remained perfectly still and stood there.

The silver light quickly reached Wang Yan.

The tall man looked on, and immediately burst into laughter.

However, after a while, his laughter abruptly stopped. He saw that Wang Yan was completely unharmed under the silver light.

The silver light seemed to have no effect on her, which puzzled him greatly.

"Impossible! How could this be?" the tall man exclaimed in bewilderment.

"Hehe, your silver light was originally very useful, and we couldn't withstand it either. Only our captain's body is special. So, he's fine. It's just a pity."

Wang Yan laughed and said, "The Silver Snake King found our leader and told us how to counter the silver light. That way, your silver light won't work."

The Serpent King's silver light is the strongest among all silver serpents. Ordinary silver serpents are completely useless against it.

"The Snake King is in your hands?" Upon hearing this, the tall man paused for a moment before speaking.

"That's right, the Silver Snake King is in our hands. However, it wasn't our boss who captured him, but rather his resources that came with him." Wang Yan said with a smile, "It seems you can't win people's hearts, even a snake wouldn't choose you."

"Hehe, very good, very good. I couldn't find the Silver Snake King for a long time, but I didn't expect it to follow you. It's really too easy for you!" the tall man said.

He shouted excitedly, as if he had discovered a priceless treasure.

"Heh, you think you can get it? You're really overestimating yourself." Wang Yan said coldly upon hearing this.

"Really? I think I can get it. Thanks for telling me this secret. Okay, get lost, I'm going to go get my treasure," the tall man said.

Having said that, he immediately set off towards the sea. His target was the Silver Snake King, not Wang Yan.

Therefore, he didn't want to say anything more to Wang Yan.

Wang Yan glanced at it and said coldly, "Hmph, you want to run away? Let me tell you, there's absolutely no way."

After saying that, she immediately summoned countless streams of magma, which rushed straight towards the tall man.

She was determined to keep him here permanently.

However, to Wang Yan's astonishment, the tall man vanished without a trace in an instant, as if he had disappeared into thin air.

"What's going on?" Wang Yan immediately used his Haki to investigate, but still couldn't find the other party.

"What happened? Where did he go?" Wang Yan was stunned.

"I'm here." Just as Wang Yan was stunned, a voice suddenly appeared, right next to his ear.

Wang Yan's expression changed, and he immediately turned into magma and disappeared.

As he turned into magma, the man appeared out of thin air, wielding a large sword, and slashed towards where Wang Yan was standing.

If Wang Yan hadn't dodged quickly, he probably would have been hit.

"Hmph, you're pretty fast." The tall man sneered, "If you were slower, I would have made sure you died."

"What exactly is this ability of yours?" Wang Yan asked, puzzled.

She couldn't understand how the other party's ability could bypass the perception of Haki; this was simply unheard of.

She had only seen Langyue's ability before; it seemed to be able to interfere with others' perception of Haki. However, that took a huge toll on it.

Generally speaking, Langyue is not used lightly.

Because this move is its ultimate technique, it wouldn't expend so much energy on a truly formidable opponent.

However, it's truly unbelievable that this guy could maintain this position for so long and get to her side so quietly without her noticing.

"Hmph, sorry, I won't tell you. You just stay here. If you show up again, I'll show you what I'm capable of," the tall man said coldly.

After saying that, he immediately disappeared.

Wang Yan glanced at it and immediately told Fanxin on the ship about it, asking him to come up with a solution.

This guy's ability is just too bizarre; she still can't figure it out.

After everything was settled, she had everyone leave the island and return to the ship.

She herself was prepared to fight with all her might this time.

She immediately burrowed underground, burning the entire island to ashes and turning it into lava. In this way, the person had nowhere to hide.

The entire island was covered in scorching lava; it looked terrifying.

The temperature here rose instantly, and people dared not approach.

"Damn it, damn it, that madman, how could he do such a mess?" A figure floated on the lava, grumbling angrily.

This person was none other than the tall man.

He thought his move had scared Wang Yan away and that Wang Yan wouldn't bother him anymore.

However, he hadn't expected Wang Yan to pull such a trick on him. Now, he had nowhere to even stand.

Although he wasn't afraid, it would be extremely troublesome if he didn't have a place to stay.

"Never mind, as long as I get outside and onto that ship, everything will be fine." The tall man said no more and headed outside.

Half an hour later, he arrived at the beach.

Then, he prepared to board the ship.

However, at that moment, a huge impact suddenly rushed towards him and struck him directly.

He was sent flying backwards, returning to the island.

Fortunately, he managed to protect himself in time; otherwise, he would definitely have fallen onto the lava.

"What's going on? How can someone sense my presence?" the tall man muttered to himself in confusion.

His ability allows him to become completely invisible, merging with the void. Otherwise, how could he so easily disappear, or so easily appear beside someone?

However, it seems that his tactic is no longer working.

"It must be a coincidence. Let's give it a try." The tall man thought for a moment and concluded that it wasn't his fault, but rather that Fanxin and the others had coincidentally run into him.

He immediately got up and went back to the boat.

He decided to test it out and see if his guess was true.

However, just as he was about to reach the side of the boat, that enormous force suddenly reappeared, heading straight for him and striking his stomach.

He was sent flying backwards again.

"Damn it, they know my location now." The tall man confirmed it this time.

He could attribute being hit once to luck. However, if it happened twice in a row, he couldn't think of it that way.
