As Yun Ye eliminated all the enemies, the system's voice sounded again—

[Ding, annihilated the Dia Mafia, awarded 50 Achievement Points!]

[Ding, killed Barlofiya, obtained 150 Achievement Points!]

[Host: Yun Ye]

[Achievement Points: 1086]

[Slash]: Swordsmanship (Proficiency 87)

[Zanpakuto]: Zangetsu (Proficiency 56)

There wasn't much change in the data. Yun Ye hadn't used any Achievement Points during this period, continuously accumulating them without unlocking any skills.

Seeing that his Achievement Points had surpassed 1000, Yun Ye decided to spend some to increase his strength.

'Let's see which skills have been unlocked.'

Yun Ye opened the skill panel. This time, many skills had been unlocked, but none were what Yun Ye truly desired.

Flowing Blade Like Fire wasn't there, Hyōrinmaru wasn't there, Senbonzakura wasn't there, Kyōka Suigetsu wasn't there...

Yun Ye looked at the branches below.

Many High-level Hado had been unlocked, but Yun Ye couldn't use them at his current stage and had no intention of unlocking them.

Not to mention anything else, Yun Ye hadn't even fully unleashed the power of Thunder Roar Cannon yet.

Since there were no skills he wanted to unlock, Yun Ye turned his attention to skill proficiency.

His top choices were Shunko or White Strike.

Shunko was his trump card at the moment; increasing its proficiency would also increase his strength.

As for White Strike, he wanted to try and see if reaching 80 proficiency would cause a qualitative change.

After much deliberation, Yun Ye decided to increase Shunko's proficiency first.

The reason he chose this was that he had another battle to fight soon, so it was better to increase his strength first.

Currently, Shunko's proficiency was only 55. As the proficiency increased, the combat power Yun Ye could unleash would naturally become more terrifying.

Yun Ye started increasing the proficiency, only to find that for every point he added, his Achievement Points disappeared by 50...

It was outrageously expensive!

Enduring the heartache, he increased Shunko's proficiency to 65, costing Yun Ye 500 Achievement Points, which made Yun Ye ache so much he couldn't breathe.

Accumulating Achievement Points was not easy, but spending them was incredibly easy.

After thinking it over, Yun Ye still decided to increase Shunko's proficiency a bit more.

After the increase, Yun Ye's body didn't show any changes; everything was as usual.

However, Yun Ye felt that his mastery of Shunko had become more profound.

And not only that, perhaps Shunko and White Strike were related. As Yun Ye's Shunko proficiency increased, the proficiency of White Strike also increased.

The proficiency became 75!

There were no other significant changes.

There were two gangs on the island: one was the Dia Mafia, and the other was a gang called the Fortune Telling Club.

The leader of the Fortune Telling Club was an old witch wearing a black cloak, her face covered in wrinkles, and she appeared to be less than 1.5 meters tall.

This old witch was named "Black Hand" Sharon, the boss of the Fortune Telling Club!

At this moment, a person wearing a Black and White Mask stood before Sharon.

"I didn't expect one of the two dominant gangs on the island, the Fortune Telling Club, to be led by an old woman over fifty," Yun Ye casually found a place to sit and said to the old witch.

A flicker of inexplicable fear flashed in Sharon's eyes as she prostrated herself respectfully, saying, "I apologize for not being able to welcome your arrival, my lord!"

Yun Ye smiled, "You're very sensible. You didn't yell threats at me."

Sharon remained respectful, "My lord, you jest. With your strength, you could easily crush our Fortune Telling Club; we wouldn't dare to act rashly."

"Tell me, who is behind you?" Yun Ye crossed his legs, finished his tea, and looked at Sharon.

Upon hearing this, a look of panic flashed in Sharon's eyes, but she quickly concealed it. She chuckled, "My lord, you're joking. I'm just a humble woman, the leader of the Fortune Telling Club. How could I have anyone behind me?"

Yun Ye's gaze sharpened, and an aura enveloped the entire place. He looked at Sharon, who was sweating profusely under the pressure, and let out a laugh. He then dispersed his aura and said calmly, "Never mind. I was just curious. Whether you have someone behind you or not, I don't really care."

Then, Yun Ye changed the subject, shifted into a more comfortable position, and looked down at the old woman prostrating on the ground, "You must know more or less what is about to happen on the island, right?"

Sharon lowered her head sincerely, "My lord, if you have any commands, please speak freely. If it's something we can do, we will do our utmost!"

"You are very sensible. No, I should say the person behind you is very sensible! This actually makes things a bit difficult for me," Yun Ye stared at Sharon and said calmly.

From the moment he stepped into the Fortune Telling Club, everyone in the gang had been extremely respectful towards him. Not only was there no hostility, but they were all deferential.

It was as if he were the boss of the Fortune Telling Club.

Sharon respectfully said, "Please give me your orders, sir."

"It's not a difficult request. Have your subordinates fight for me just once!" Yun Ye said calmly, looking at a small straw doll tied to Sharon's waist.

Sharon bowed to Yun Ye. "Yes, sir."

Yun Ye smiled, turned, and began to leave. He stopped at the last moment and said indifferently, "Tell Basil Hawkins that I am very satisfied with his perceptiveness. In the future, I can help you resolve a problem!"

After saying this, Yun Ye left without looking back.

However, Sharon, who heard this, froze on the spot, unable to snap out of it for a long time.

Her heart was in turmoil, unable to calm down: 'He, he knows?'

Meanwhile, in the distance.

Inside a dimly lit building, a young man who had been monitoring through the straw doll on Sharon's waist had a drastic change in expression. He didn't even notice when the straw doll fell from his hand.

His heart was like a raging storm, and the words escaped his lips uncontrollably: "How is this possible? I've had no contact with him, how could he have guessed it was me?"

This young man was none other than one of the future Supernovas, Basil Hawkins!

However, at this moment, he was not yet the future formidable Supernova pirate, but the mastermind behind the mafia's Fortune Telling Club!

Although his strength was not as great as in the original story, his divination abilities were already outstanding.

Before Yun Ye arrived, he had already divined that there was danger, with a 50% probability of the Fortune Telling Club's destruction.

His own probability of death was also 50%.

This meant that as long as he handled it well, he could perfectly overcome this calamity.

It was precisely because of this that he had ordered the people of the Fortune Telling Club to treat Yun Ye with respect!

He himself remained hidden in the shadows, almost no one knowing that he was the true controller of the Fortune Telling Club!

But what was the current situation? How could his identity have been discovered?

How was this possible!?

The more he thought about it, the more Basil Hawkins's heart filled with dread. In the past, it was always he who used divination to obtain information about his enemies to intimidate others. He never expected that today, he would be the one to be thoroughly intimidated!

'How exactly did he find out my identity?'

Taking a deep breath, Basil Hawkins forced himself to calm down, but his heart still couldn't settle. Until he figured out this problem, his heart would never be able to remain calm!
