After meeting the strongest Spectator, "Angel of Imagination" Adam, and seeing the abilities of Hvin Rambis, Demigod Spectator, Angel already has some basic understanding of this Pathway.

But the information of "King of the Black Throne" was forgotten many times, which still made her feel a little trembling.

It's more terrifying than standing by and being invisible, knowing that it exists but always forgetting it is more terrifying... And this ability obviously does not need to be "actively used", and it can cover the vast area from Loen to Intis, from the Rhoside Islands to the Sonia Sea, which almost represents the entire world.

Recalling that "Queen Mystic" Bernadette once said that Sequence 3 can answer prayers within a certain range through Honorific Name, and Sequence 2 can make his power effective on a global scale. Angel has an estimate of the strength of "King of the Black Throne".

It is impossible for a Beyonder of Sequence 3 to do this, unless he has a Mystical Item that is equivalent to the "0" level Sealed Artifact, or there is a Angel of "Spectator" Pathway helping him...

Of course, "King of the Black Throne" Baros Hopkins himself is unlikely to be Sequence 2, otherwise the leader of all pirates would not be "King of the Five Seas" Nast, but him.

From another perspective, Anne can ignore Hopkins' Psychological Invisibility, which also means that there is a strength gap between the two. This Pirate King should be just Beyonder of Sequence 3.

After thinking about this, Angel looked at the retro-looking "Black Throne", trying to imprint the shape of this rare ship into his mind. Even after leaving the island, the relevant memories would be hidden deep in the brain and never see the light of day.

Unfortunately, like everyone else, this "King of the Black Throne" didn't show up. Well, I'm afraid only me, the polished commander, stood so stupidly on the deck. Everyone else must have seen my appearance clearly...

Muttering, Angel suddenly discovered that the outline of "Death Announcer" far away from the edge of the fog gradually became clearer. This sloop, which was shaped like a crescent moon and was longer than the two "Queen Anne's Revenge" combined, carefully avoided the position of Angel. It passed by as if it had not noticed "Black Throne" and headed towards the entrance of the fjord.

The King of the Black Throne vehicle in the "Psychological Invisibility" state also tightened its sails and slowly approached the coast.

They were all approaching "The Black Emperor". It seemed that the meeting of the pirate kings was about to begin... Angel was thinking secretly and realized that his ship had become the outermost one. He was about to let Anne follow him closer to the coast when he saw the golden eyes of the black-haired girl looking towards the outside of the ship. Then she waved one hand and grasped inward.

At the same time, Angel also sensed slight changes in the surrounding Mirror World, and realized that someone was using the space that overlapped and was independent of Physical World to get closer to him.

But before she could make a move, a gray figure appeared from the mist. He seemed to be bound by invisible chains, suspended in the air, his limbs struggling slightly, but he could not break away from this force.

"Messenger, I am the messenger, Earl asked me to deliver the message!"

Seeing that the nearest artillery pieces on the deck had pointed their muzzles at him without anyone operating them, the gray figure let out a scream that didn't sound like a human voice. He turned his wrist wildly and shook an envelope in his hand.

Earl? I remembered that it is rumored that "King of the Five Seas" Nast likes to have his crew call him Earl. This may come from his family inheritance. After all, he claims to be a descendant of the Solomon Empire...

And the person in front of me couldn't have just secretly sent the invitation letter to "Wraith" in the captain's cabin of "Red Haired Woman". Anne actually discovered him directly in the process of "Mirror Leap" and captured him back to Physical World. This is some kind of "Balancer" Are you sensing the abnormality around Beyonder Ability? It seems that if it weren't for her permission, I wouldn't be able to get close to this ship in Mirror World... Angel thought about it, stretched out a few invisible threads, took the envelope from the Wraith messenger, pulled it towards him, and nodded to Anne.

The latter shook his arm, as if throwing out a ball of invisible garbage. The "Wraith" was really thrown away like garbage. The figure in the mist quickly disappeared and "jumped" into a mirror somewhere.

Will this offend that "King of the Five Seas"... Don't be afraid, I have Anne!

Angel squeezed out a smile and opened the envelope with the triangular mark representing Nast drawn in his hand. It was decorated with hot stamping patterns around it and looked extremely formal. The letter paper inside only read a simple sentence:

"Invite 'Golden Queen' Angelica Zaki to White Maple Earl Nast Solomon's palace 'The Black Emperor' to discuss matters together."

Finally, there is the bold signature of Nast.

Regardless of whether he is really "White Maple Earl", this style should be the best among all pirates... Angel handed the letter to Anne, then he came to the side of the ship and looked at several other Pirate King's ship found that they were just approaching "The Black Emperor" and had not taken any further action, so they decided to wait a little to see how others would react - they must have also received a solemn invitation from "White Maple Earl".

Walking straight into the home court of a Demigod, a "Ghost Ship" controlled by him, is not a wise choice, unless other sea kings did the same thing last year...

On the other side of the island stands the extinct volcano. It is not too big, but it is already crowded with various ships. Next to the pier, in the houses that are obviously temporary but very solid, many pirates are reveling wantonly.

Under the name "King of the Five Seas", even pirates who usually have grudges can only put aside their prejudices. In this case, why not have a good drink and discuss things that you usually dare not say?

Of course, most of the topics revolve around Loen Navy's brand new iron-clad ship and their increasingly "arrogant" arrogance. Not even Pirate Admiral dared to resist it head-on, and even the kings did not dare to resist it. The terrifying warships that must be avoided have recently launched a series of attacks, patrolling the main channel between the Rhoside Islands and North Continent, and sunk double-digit pirate ships, making that area of the sea a place of death for pirates.

It is said that even the notice board with wanted notices on the Pritz Harbor dock has been cleared of a large area. Each torn-off wanted notice means that a relatively famous pirate and his pirate ship have been sent to the bottom of the sea.

This makes the captains who can still attend Pirate Conference feel sad about the death of the rabbit and fox, but also worried about their future. Some people have already made up their mind to retire, and some want to make the last profit while there is only one ironclad ship and they have no time to take care of the Sonia Sea.

Stimulated by cheap but high-alcohol ale, they salivated and exchanged their thoughts.

But all the pirates turned their attention to the Black Building building next to the dock from time to time. The five Pirate Admirals who participated in the conference locked themselves inside, not knowing what they were discussing.

I hope they are discussing how to kill the "Pritz" - this is the thought that pops up in everyone's mind.

Sensing the gaze falling on him from time to time, First Mate of "Golden Dream" and Blue Walls wearing a monocle frowned and moved their bodies to hide themselves in the shadow of the two-story building behind them.

This time, he overcame many objections and got the qualification to disembark with the captain "Iceberg Admiral". However, he did not expect that Edwina turned around and entered the small building, leaving himself outside.

It always felt like this trip was in vain... He muttered to himself.

After "Blaze" Danitz left "Golden Dream", he originally thought that there was one less secret competitor, but he soon discovered that everyone thought so, which made the competition more intense. Although he was First Mate, but Danitz, who was flamboyant and able to attract everyone's attention, was no longer there, but instead became the target of public criticism. She was often blocked by others, resulting in fewer opportunities to get close to the captain and be alone with her.

Only in dreams can he, like Mad Adventurer Gehrman in the novel, solve all troubles with absolute strength and win the captain's heart...

The thoughts in his mind were chaotic, but this "Mechanical Expert" still did not forget his duties and looked warily at every pirate approaching this small building.

He knew that the other subordinates brought by Pirate Admiral, such as the "Dawn Paladin" who was over 2 meters tall on the roof and obviously had a bit of giant blood, and the "Rose Bishop" lurking in the shadows, For example, "Wind-blessed", who boredly fired small Wind Blade at the beach not far away, creating traces of traces. Like him, he was responsible for protecting his own captain and was ready to deal with other "guards" at any time.

He also focused a large part of his attention on his peers.

Suddenly, a scream came from a simple wooden house in the distance. The heart-rending scream passed through the noisy dock and reached Blue's ears. He was so excited that he stood up from the wall and looked into the distance with squinted eyes.

The monocle on his eye socket flashed a pale yellow light, magnifying the distant scene like a telescope and clearly displaying it in his eyes.

But apart from the scream, there was no other movement in the wooden house, which made Blue feel relieved a little.

Even with the restraint of "King of the Five Seas", under the influence of alcohol, pirates will inevitably have some fights, and it is not uncommon for people to lose their lives. As long as Pirate Admiral is not involved, they will usually be resolved through private discussions.

It couldn't have been some drunkard who stabbed his enemy... Blue Walls As soon as this idea came to his mind, a crimson light flashed through the picture magnified by the monocle.

Then, the wooden house exploded from the inside out.

"Helene, do you think I should set an example first and go to 'The Black Emperor', or should I wait for a certain Pirate King to explore the way first?"

After waiting for half an hour and not seeing any other boats approaching "The Black Emperor", Angel asked.

The red-haired Helene looked a little sluggish under the sunlight that was gradually rising and even the fog could not cover it. Hearing this, he shook his head and said:

"The last time I came to participate in Pirate Conference, I was kept on the ship of Tracy and had no chance to understand these things."

Come to think of it... I guess among the people I know, only "Queen Mystic" Bernadette can answer this question.

Angel muttered, and suddenly Spirituality felt something and looked into the air.

A piece of paper slowly fell down and was caught by her with a silk thread.

It is unlikely to be "King of the Five Seas" who just sent the invitation letter. I don't know the other Pirate King, only...

She thought about it, opened the letter, and sure enough she saw a familiar name on it.

"Be careful, there is a conspiracy against you here."

The signature below is...

Bernadette.
