The Attack (2)
"Damn it, this is really bad luck," the man in black cursed angrily.
Originally, he thought he could easily deal with the Fanxin Pirates, after all, they were manipulators of spatial abilities. They sent Fanxin's friends to another dimension, and unless Fanxin gave up on them, he would have no choice but to submit.
However, he now discovers that although he has succeeded, his life is also about to end.
He sent Fanxin to another dimension, but his divided soul seems to be in his mind, and it will probably replace him soon.
Unless he were to die, he would have absolutely no way to stop the other side.
"Ah, stop complaining. If we're here to kill him, then naturally he can hunt us down too." The man in white gave a helpless bitter smile. They had taken on this mission voluntarily, so they couldn't blame anyone else.
"Let's open the portal to another dimension and go find him too." After a long period of frustration, the man in black took a deep breath and said somewhat reluctantly.
They couldn't expel the fragmented soul of Fanxin, so they had to go find Fanxin. If they didn't go, they would soon be replaced by Xiao Fan's fragmented soul, and then they would cease to exist.
"Yes." The man in white nodded, and with his slender hand, he gently made a gesture in the direction of the ship. A moment later, a spatial rift appeared, more than a meter wide.
"Let's go." The man in black had a very gloomy expression. He rushed towards the spatial rift, and soon his figure disappeared from the spot.
The man in white didn't hesitate at all and quickly followed.
In the dim world, there was no sunlight; only scattered rays of light streaked across the sky, briefly illuminating the ground. Once they had flown past, darkness returned.
After Fanxin and Bingfeng passed through the crack, they arrived at this place.
There was no sound, only deathly silence, as if no living beings existed there.
Fanxin unleashed his Haki to its fullest extent. Fortunately, he possessed this Haki; otherwise, navigating this world would have been virtually impossible, given the extreme darkness, almost darkness, of his surroundings.
"Fanxin, this place is deathly silent. How are we supposed to find them?" Bingfeng frowned and asked, "Also, were they really sent here? If they were sent somewhere else, how are we supposed to find them?"
This is a big problem. If someone in the shadows can open one space, they can open other spaces as well.
If the other side separated them from the first group and sent them to two different places, then even if they worked themselves to death here, they probably wouldn't find them again.
"Hehe, don't worry, those two will soon become my divided souls." Fanxin smiled calmly upon hearing this, showing no sign of panic.
"A split soul?" Bingfeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "Have you found the person who did this?"
"Yes, there are two of them, twins. I've taken control of half their souls and am rapidly devouring the other half." Fanxin Xin nodded and said, "Once I've finished devouring them, those two will be my clones. I'll know all the memories in their minds. At that time, hehe..."
Now that he knows the memories in the other person's mind, finding them is a piece of cake, isn't it?
"Hehe, then we can relax a bit." Bingfeng nodded slightly, feeling much more at ease as well.
They stopped talking and began to wander around.
Although it was dark here, their powerful Haki allowed them to clearly see their surroundings. Therefore, they wouldn't trip over anything or be ambushed.
They traveled easily along the way, and no creatures came to ambush them.
Fanxin thought for a moment, then immediately unleashed his Haki to its fullest extent, extending it outwards for countless miles once again. However, he still couldn't find Wang Yan and the others in this area.
"Could it really not be here?" Fanxin frowned. If that were the case, then things would be quite troublesome.
"I suspect so. My sister and I have a special connection; we can sense each other as long as we're in the same area." Bingfeng nodded, his expression grave. "I couldn't detect her presence here. Clearly, we've been separated."
"Damn it, that's really insidious. Do they want to wear us both down to death in two different worlds?" Fanxin's face was extremely ugly.
"Then we don't need to search anymore. We can only wait until you finish devouring those two souls, then tear through space and take us there." Bingfeng stopped and said calmly.
Fanxin knew that continuing the search was pointless, so he found a large rock, sat down, and began to activate the Soul Clan Secret Technique to speed up the process of devouring the souls of the two guys.
The Soul Clan Secret Technique are incredibly powerful. No matter where the target is, as long as they are possessed by a split soul, it's easy to attack them.
The Hua Bao sat quietly to the side, undisturbed.
"Ah..." Five hundred miles away from Fanxin, the two men in Black and White suddenly screamed, rolling on the ground, their faces contorted in agony.
They clutched their heads, their entire bodies trembling and convulsing.
"That guy has made his move; he wants to completely devour our souls." The white-robed man's face was deathly pale, devoid of any color. His eyes had turned a pale white, and his aura was extremely weak, as if he were about to die at any moment.
"We shouldn't have accepted this mission." Tears streamed down the black-clad man's face as he was filled with regret. If they hadn't come to deal with Fanxin, they wouldn't have fallen victim to such a domineering secret technique.
Now, they are completely helpless. Although they have come to this world, they have not yet reached Fanxin's side, making it impossible for them to make a deal.
"It's over, completely over." The man in white gave a bitter laugh, utterly despairing. They didn't even know where Fanxin was now, so how could they find him to retrieve the fragmented soul from his body?
Furthermore, he realized a terrifying fact: Fanxin probably wouldn't engage in carbon trading with them anymore, since Fanxin already had victory in hand.
They had no way to deal with Fanxin's divided soul, but Fanxin could control the divided soul to devour their souls.
Once the Fanxin has devoured all their souls, then the Fanxin will have everything. They will have no leverage left to trade with the Fanxin.
"Yes, it's all over, it's all over." The man in black was in agony, his expression vacant, and he gave a bitter laugh.
"Well, if they're dead, they're dead. Since it's fate, we can only accept it." The man in white smiled helplessly. Things had come to this point; even if they didn't want to accept it, there was nothing they could do.
"That makes sense." The man in black stopped resisting; resistance was futile, so he might as well give up to avoid the pain.
The two lay flat on the ground, gazing up at the dark night sky. Their breaths gradually weakened, their heartbeats slowed and became feeble, until finally, nothing could be heard at all, as if their heartbeats had stopped.
Finally, they closed their eyes silently.
Shortly after they closed their eyes, an aura identical to that of Fanxin burst forth from their minds and instantly spread throughout their bodies.
A few minutes later, the Black and White man slowly opened his eyes again. However, his expression had changed; it was no longer that of the two men, but that of Fanxin.
The two sat up at the same time, looked at each other, and couldn't help but laugh.
"From now on, your name will be Bai," Fanxin, dressed in black, said with a smile.
"From now on, you'll be called Black," Fanxin said with a smile, dressed in white.
The two looked at each other, then burst into laughter for a long time before finally stopping.
"Let's go, White, the Venerable One is still waiting for us." Black stood up, looking towards where Fanxin was, and said.
"That makes sense. Let's go straight there, then clear a path and send them over," Bai nodded and said.
The two exchanged a glance, then without further hesitation, rushed towards Fanxin.
Five hundred miles away, Fanxin suddenly opened his eyes, a slight smile appearing on his face. He glanced at Bingfeng and said, "Success! Those two are now my clones."
Those two, having become his clones, would not betray him and would be his most loyal partners. He wouldn't be ambushed by those two when he went to rescue Wang Yan and the others.
"That's good. Quickly, have them come over," Bingfeng urged.
"Don't worry, they're already heading this way." Fanxin pondered for a moment and said, "Sigh, let's go ourselves. Those two don't have a flying vehicle; it'll probably take them several days to get here. We don't know where Wang Yan and the others have been teleported to; we can't wait too long."
The space they were in was safe, just dark and desolate. He guessed those two guys probably wanted to starve them to death; without food, what good was their strength?
But things are probably different for Wang Yan. Once those two guys send them to a dangerous world, who knows how many people will die.
Therefore, they could wait, but Wang Yan and the others couldn't.
"That makes sense, let's go." Bingfeng nodded and immediately put on his Flight Armor.
The same applies to Fanxin.
Immediately, he soared into the sky and rushed towards the direction from which his clone had come. Bingfeng followed closely behind.
Fanxin pushed his speed to the limit, transforming himself into a streak of fire that drew a fiery arc in the air, a line that lingered for a long time.
The same goes for Bingfeng.
Several hours later, Fanxin descended from the sky and landed in front of his two clones.
"Greetings, sir." Bai chuckled, pointed at Hei, and said, "He is Hei, and I am Bai."
"That's a rather strange name." Fanxin waved her hand, too lazy to dwell on it, and asked directly, "Do you know where my companions were teleported to?"
Bai nodded and said, "I know. I heard it's a world teeming with ferocious beasts. They were all sent there."
Upon hearing this, Fanxin and Bingfeng's expressions changed. Wang Yan and the others could withstand a place teeming with ferocious beasts, but the crew members would likely suffer.
"Quickly, open a passage and get me there immediately," Fanxin urged anxiously.
Every minute they stay here increases the danger for the people over there. Therefore, he must get there as soon as possible.
"Alright." Without further hesitation, the two men in Black and White simultaneously tore through space, creating a passage. That passage was deep and mysterious, leading to some unknown world.
Fanxin glanced at them, then immediately sent the Black and White figures into the Diamond Space. He himself, along with Bingfeng, stepped into the space and disappeared.
After they left, the space here automatically aligned itself.
"Awoooo..."
As soon as Fanxin emerged from the long, dark passage, he heard deafening roars of beasts; even he felt his eardrums ringing from their roars.
His expression turned extremely serious; he sensed danger emanating from these guys. If Wang Yan and the others were sent here, they would likely suffer a great loss.
"I can sense my sister's presence!" Bingfeng exclaimed happily.
"Over there?" Fanxin asked anxiously.
"Over there." Bingfeng pointed a delicate, slender finger in the distance and said.
Fanxin glanced in that direction, then without hesitation, snapped his wrist, and his Flight Armor instantly covered his entire body as he charged towards the destination. Bingfeng followed closely behind.
They flew at breakneck speed, pushing their speed to the limit. At the same time, he activated his Haki, enveloping the area below. Within the range of his Haki, he had an intimate knowledge of all food.
Bingfeng led the way; only she knew where Wang Yan was.
Bingfeng sensed its surroundings as it flew. After two hours of adrenaline-fueled flight, Bingfeng finally came to a stop above a dense forest.
Fanxin immediately stopped flying, lowered his head and looked down at the forest more than ten miles below. Under his control, his Haki transformed into a huge net, which quickly enveloped the forest, making everything in the forest clearly visible.
"There." Fanxin pointed at a large tree in the distance, and then his body exploded, turning into seven or eight afterimages that flew towards the tree.
The Hua Bao caught up at lightning speed.
"You beast, you're asking for death!" Fanxin flew over and happened to see a huge Kuma attacking several crew members. He couldn't help but shout angrily. The ferocious beast was covered in fur, its blood-red maw wide open, and saliva dripped from the edges of its fangs, leaving long streaks that fell onto the grass.
Ahead of it, several crew members retreated in terror and despair, their armor shattered and their injuries severe. Without their Flight Armor, they were utterly powerless against such a massive and ferocious beast.
Fanxin descended, his right fist striking out. A Haki aura of pitch black surged upwards, completely staining his right fist black. In a few flashes, he reached the Kuma's head, and his pitch-black right fist slammed down, striking the Kuma's enormous head.
Fanxin's fist was disproportionately large compared to the Kuma's head. However, the small fist contained extraordinary power, directly smashing the Kuma to the ground and causing its body to sink more than a foot into the ground.
