Execute Them All (1)
A group of more than twenty people arrived.
They were all dressed in black iron armor, which covered everything except their eyes, making it impossible to see their faces.
Their very presence exuded a ruthless and decisive aura; they radiated a bloodthirsty presence, clearly indicating that these were no benevolent individuals.
Their hands must be stained with the blood of countless people; countless souls have perished at their hands.
"You outsiders deserve to die! You dared to damage our rainproof cover! This is a grave crime, and you must all be executed!" A man in armor stepped forward, glanced at the group, and said.
He was the tallest of all the armored men, wielding an ice-blue longsword, and his entire being was incredibly imposing.
His voice was rough, and his last sentence was shouted, carrying far. Clearly, they were very dissatisfied with Fanxin's actions.
"Execute them all!" the man said. His companions behind him shouted in unison. Their voices were already loud, but when they spoke at the same time, they became even more powerful.
"Heh, execute them all? You're all too arrogant. It's just a shield, isn't it?" Fanxin was somewhat dissatisfied upon hearing this. These guys are really ruthless.
"Hmph, kid, whoever you are, daring to come here and discover this place, then don't even think about leaving. You only have one path to take, and that is death, understand?" the armored man said coldly.
"Oh, really? I'm really scared." Fanxin said sarcastically upon hearing this.
He was teasing them. He wasn't afraid of these guys, and even if something even more powerful came, he wouldn't be afraid either.
If they dare to make a move, he will absolutely not hold back.
"You little brat, daring to mock us? You're asking for death." The armored man glanced at him, immediately becoming displeased.
They were armored guards, high-ranking officials. People would give them a wide berth or even bow to them. But Fanxin was so sarcastic, showing no respect whatsoever. It was utterly despicable.
He wished he could devour his Fanxin whole.
"Heh, enough with the nonsense. Want to fight? Then come on, I want to see if you guys are really that good," Fanxin said.
After saying that, he looked at everyone and said, "You two should stick together and not separate. Bingfeng and Wang Yan are in one group, Sun Zhijian and Lin Haicheng are in another, and Little Fox, you and the senior are in the same group. You should also help the others, understand?"
He was incredibly strong; he could take on many opponents single-handedly. However, he was somewhat worried about his brothers.
So, after thinking about it, he decided to have everyone cooperate. That way, they could look out for each other.
"Okay, we understand." Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Alright, since that's the case, let's begin the battle. Let's see the strength of the people of the Lost City." Fanxin said, taking the lead and charging towards the armored figures.
Meanwhile, Bingfeng, Wang Yan, and others formed teams and began engaging in group battles.
Bingfeng and Wang Yan worked together and jumped into the basin.
Sun Zhijian and Lin Haicheng worked together and went inside as well.
The Little Fox wrapped its tail around the old man's body and then jumped down as well.
The armored men tried to stop them, but Fanxin intervened. He used his String-String Fruit powers to create a spider web, which he then ensnared, trapping the men inside.
It was too late for them to struggle.
Then, Fanxin took action, tied those people together, and with great force threw them over to the other side of the basin to retrieve them.
The edge of the basin was very high, and those people had no protective measures at all. It would be very dangerous for them to fall like that.
However, no one will feel sorry for them, because they are all ruthless guys.
They killed many people, so they should have expected that one day they would be killed themselves.
They were tied together and fell from a height, crashing heavily onto a large stone slab a few minutes later.
Those at the bottom died instantly, and those at the top didn't fare any better; they all bled from all seven orifices.
Fanxin leaped down from the sky, glanced at them, then ignored them and headed forward.
Ahead, everyone has already started fighting with the people inside.
Their arrival has already attracted attention, and their previous actions were clearly a full-scale attack.
Therefore, their arrival will not end well.
Countless armored men emerged from within and began to besiege Fanxin and his companions.
Fanxin did not launch an attack, but continued forward step by step.
As time went on, more and more people surrounded Fanxin and the others.
Fanxin glanced at it, ignored it, and, holding the two diamond knives, walked step by step into the room.
Those guys were very unhappy because Xiao Fan's actions were tantamount to ignoring them.
They felt very embarrassed.
So they launched their attacks, trying to kill Fanxin.
However, Fanxin still didn't draw his sword, but he did unleash his Haki. He used Conqueror's Haki to attack, unleashing a wide barrage.
These guys aren't very strong, but they're really annoying.
He didn't want to get bogged down with these guys. So, he immediately unleashed Haki attack, taking down the annoying flies.
After finishing, Fanxin continued on his way.
Everyone followed suit, but they were very cautious.
This place gives them a sense of danger; if they're not careful, they could easily suffer losses.
However, Fanxin was no longer afraid.
Because he had activated all three layers of defense, he didn't believe that his opponent could break through all three layers of defense in one go, no matter how they attacked.
Throughout the journey, his Fanxin never wavered.
Soon after, he arrived at the gates of the Lost City.
However, the city gates were now tightly guarded, and it seemed those people were unwilling to let them in.
"Hey, is anyone home? If so, come out for a second. We need to go in. Open the door quickly," Fanxin Xin shouted.
His words sounded like an order, and if the people inside heard them, they would definitely be furious.
However, Fanxin wasn't worried. He was very confident.
"Boy, you've managed to get here, I must say, you're quite capable. However, I don't understand how you knew about this place. There are so many ferocious beasts outside, yet you haven't given up. I'm really curious, why are you so persistent?" A voice suddenly came from the city wall.
The voice was calm, as if it were saying something very ordinary.
"That's because I have a friend who came out from here. So, I know about this place. And I also wanted to see what the Lost City was like. So, I defeated those monsters and came straight in," Fanxin said.
"Oh, who is your friend? Can I introduce myself to him?" the owner of the voice asked.
"Hehe, what do you want to do? Try to kill me to silence me?" Fanxin said with a half-smile.
"Heh, so many of you already know, even if I wanted to silence you, I couldn't," the owner of the voice said.
"That's true. But I won't tell you," Fanxin said, shaking her head.
He didn't want the other party to target the old man; he stood out so much to provoke hatred.
They would be safe once all eyes were on him. Then they could do many things.
"Oh, in that case, there's nothing more to talk about. Kid, you're not welcome here. Just kill yourselves, and I won't have to lift a finger," the voice said.
He spoke calmly, as if Fanxin and everyone else would listen to him.
"Do you think that's possible?" Fanxin said coldly upon hearing this.
He's not someone to be trifled with; if you want him dead, the other party will have to pay the price. Otherwise, no one can kill him.
"That's probably impossible, but since you've come here, I'll make you understand that this was a wrong choice," the voice said.
"Oh, really? Then I'd like to see what tricks you have up your sleeve," Fanxin said.
"You'll see it soon enough, hehe, take a good look at all of this. This is the last thing you'll see before you die. Never come here again in your next life, understand?" With that, the owner of the voice said no more.
A short while later, the ground began to shake, as if an earthquake was about to occur.
Fanxin glanced at everyone and said, "Something's strange here. Stay on high alert to prevent a sneak attack."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, indicating that they understood.
The moment he finished speaking, the Lost City began to descend deeper underground.
Soon after, the Lost City vanished.
"Hmm, something's strange. Be careful," Fanxin warned.
"Heh, useless. Kid, coming here is like coming to hell. Just watch, you've come here to die." With that, the owner of the voice attacked again.
Soon after, the ground began to melt, slowly turning into a sticky, gooey substance that was hard to identify and rather disgusting.
The sticky substance kept emitting a smell that made you feel dizzy, as if you were poisoned.
Fanxin glanced at everyone and said, "You all need to put on your flying armor immediately and fly into the sky, otherwise we'll be swallowed up right away."
He's not afraid of that, but it would be bad if everyone got swallowed up.
He's completely out of touch with the situation and absolutely won't allow anything to happen to anyone.
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, everyone flew into the sky and looked down.
Fanxin also rose into the air, silently gazing at the ground, waiting for the ground to change.
However, to Fanxin's dismay, nothing changed below, but things did change above.
The protective shield that he had shattered has reappeared, right above them.
The dome was slowly sinking, seemingly forcing them down.
"Damn it, Wang Yan, you immediately take action and burn the entire island to the ground!" Fanxin said after a moment of contemplation.
Since everyone on the island has left, he's not afraid of destroying it. If the island is indeed destroyed, he can simply build another one for everyone. That's not difficult for him.
He can handle it easily.
Their most important task now is to do everything possible to deal with the guy hiding in the shadows.
"I understand." Wang Yan nodded, and then she immediately used her ability to work underground.
Under her influence, the ground began to melt.
Soon after, the lava spread to the surrounding area, and quickly reached the vicinity of the basin.
Under the influence of magma, this basin is gradually sinking. At this rate, it won't be long before it disappears.
Meanwhile, Fanxin and the others were not idle.
They immediately took action and began attacking the protective shield, intending to shatter it.
They can leave once they break the protective shield.
Now, they have no idea where the Lost City has gone, so they have no choice but to leave.
"Stop your attack immediately, or I'll start killing. Kid, I have millions of slaves at my disposal. Do you want them all dead?" The owner of the voice sensed the heat of the magma and knew it could cause him a lot of trouble.
So he started threatening, hoping that Fanxin would obey and stop attacking.
Upon hearing this, Fanxin said, "Hmph, I'm a pirate. If you want to kill me, then kill me. This has nothing to do with me. I'm only here for wealth. You can kill everyone, but wealth is inanimate; you can't kill it. Understand, you idiot?"
He came here to rescue those people. However, he couldn't say it outright, otherwise, those guys would think he was easy to bully.
By then, they'll have seized on his weakness, and he won't be able to do anything.
He Fanxin not one to sit idly by and wait for death; if he let others lead him by the nose, he would only face certain death.
"Is that so?" The owner of the voice said with dissatisfaction, "In that case, I will begin to slaughter them. You forced them to this; they could have lived a good life."
"Heh, is that so? Living as a slave is worse than being dead!" Fanxin immediately retorted upon hearing this.
He was telling the truth, because those people were merely experimental subjects they were raising.
They are alive now because they haven't been used as test subjects.
If they are used as test subjects, their fate will be very tragic.
So, he thought about it and concluded that if those people were really going to die, it would be a good thing.
Because in that way, they would be completely freed from this suffering.
"Boy, you forced me to do this!" the voice shouted. Then he began killing.
Although they hid, Fanxin and the others couldn't see clearly how the slaves were executed. However, from the pitiful screams, Fanxin could tell that the person was torturing the slaves.
This greatly displeased him; his face turned frosty, and he wished he could find the other party immediately and kill him.
