Time Was Almost Up

Meanwhile, inside a house on the shore of Black Lake.

Compared to the solemnity and formality of the Kings' Meeting, the Pirate Admiral seemed much more casual. "Admiral of Stars" did not attend, "Vice Admiral of Ailment" was arrested and absent, and the remaining five sat together, not getting along well with each other.

"Twilight, why are you in my territory again?"

"Vice Admiral Deep Sea?" Howl Constantine asked coldly.

His face was very peculiar, resembling a semi-transparent, palm-sized octopus. Around his chin were a dozen or so slippery Tentacle that drooped down to near his chest. His hair, similar in shape to the Tentacle, was dark blue and black, round and thick, and draped over his shoulders. Apart from these features, the rest of the "Vice Admiral Deep Sea's " body, including his hands, was covered in a black cloak.

According to rumors, this ruthless and bloodthirsty Pirate Admiral had sea monster blood, which is why he had such an unusual appearance.

"The Earl said that the Five Seas are a paradise for pirates, and I am free to go wherever I want."

"Vice Admiral Dusk" Bulatov Ivan was quite tall, and the wooden chair beneath him creaked under his weight as he moved. He was unconcerned by the "Vice Admiral Deep Sea's" questions.

"Stop talking nonsense, take your Fleet and get out of here. I don't want to see your face again."

"You want me to leave? Fine, as long as you satisfy my curiosity."

"Vice Admiral Dusk," Bulatov Ivan chuckled softly, "I really want to know, what exactly is your ship searching for as it keeps diving deeper and deeper? Is it that treasure that happens to share the same name as your Flagship, the legendary Lost Newins?"

?

Upon hearing this name, the other three generals all turned their gazes towards it.

I'll say it again, it's none of your business.

"Vice Admiral Deep Sea" remained unmoved, his attitude still calm. "Otherwise, I'll have to ask the Earl to Judgment."

"OK."

"Then let's follow the rules," said Bulatov Ivan. "A fight will be held under the Earl's witness, and the loser will grant the other one request."

He seemed quite confident about winning the fight.

Constantine looked at him Indifference, without answering.

"It's like this again. You're really afraid of your ship's secrets being exposed, aren't you? You won't even give me the slightest chance."

"Vice Admiral Dusk" smiled, then turned to the silent female Pirate Admiral beside him. "Iceberg," he said, "I heard you've had a big haul lately, getting your hands on the Death's Key."

In the legends of treasures at sea, "The Lost Newins" only ranks fifth, while "The Death's Key" is undoubtedly number one.

Are you serious?

"Vice Admiral Iceberg" Edwina was initially filled with curiosity about that lost civilization, but that feeling had been ruined by the other party. "How could the Death's Key be obtained so easily? I haven't figured out the origin of that key yet, but if you really want it, I can sell it to you as long as the price is right."

"Then forget it."

"It seems Señor's second mate died in vain," Bulatov Ivan shrugged, glancing deliberately at the "Admiral of Blood" sitting to the side. "Then it seems Senor's second mate died for nothing."

According to rumors at sea, "Iron" Maveti, the second mate of "Admiral of Blood," was attacked by a powerful adventurer while pursuing relevant clues. Not only did he fail to obtain the Death Key, but he also sacrificed his head in exchange for the bounty.

"Admiral of Blood" Senor remained completely unconcerned, still smiling broadly, as if he weren't the one being mocked by "Vice Admiral Dusk."

"It's rare to see you so calm."

"Vice Admiral Hell!" Ludwell exclaimed upon seeing this. Although he was wearing a mask and his face was not visible, his surprise was still evident in his tone. The other Pirate Admiral shared similar thoughts.

They all knew that Senor's pirate crew was a peripheral organization of the "Rose School of Thought," and that they always loved Indulgence their desires. In the past, after being ridiculed, he would vent his emotions without restraint, responding with Wrath attacks.

"Heh... I don't mind at all."

"Admiral of Blood" Senor chuckled and looked up. His gaze swept across the room, his eyes fixed on the dead. He continued, laughing, "Anyway, you're all going to be finished soon."

Although his words were calm, the malice in his tone was so strong and so obvious that all the generals present clearly felt it.

"Damn Wraith, how dare you Curse me!"

"Vice Admiral Dusk" Bulatov Ivan was the first to fly into a rage, standing up and cursing. The chair he was sitting on finally gave way and shattered into pieces of wood with a crash.

"Senor, what do you mean by that?"

"Vice Admiral Hell" Ludwell's voice was icy, and a translucent light flowed across the surface of his mask. "Deep Sea" and "Iceberg" didn't speak, but their expressions were equally furious.

The four Pirate Admiral's discontent was simultaneously directed at Senor.

However, this middle-ranking member of the "Rose School of Thought" simply smiled. He offered no explanation, instead taking a pocket watch from his pocket, snapping it open, glancing at it, and saying, "It's almost time."

Immediately afterwards-

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"

A high-pitched, terrified scream suddenly came from outside the house, accompanied by the horrific sounds of bodies being torn apart and blood splattering, as well as the hurried footsteps rushing to the door.

"Captain! Something terrible has happened!"

The voice belonged to Blue Woll, the first mate of "Vice Admiral Iceberg." His voice was trembling with Distortion, "Trees have grown on Black Lake Island!"

Tree?

Didn't this island originally have trees?

The Pirate Admiral didn't react for a moment, but Edwina seemed to realize something, and her expression changed slightly.

"Careful!"

Just as she was about to say something, she heard someone shout behind her, followed by a bone-chilling gust of wind that blew into her body, causing her to instantly lose control of her entire body.

It's "Evil Spirit Possession"!

Senor attacked me from behind...

Edwina Edwards swiftly retaliated, tiny specks of light rapidly appearing around her. Then, her eyes began to shine, shimmering with flowing gold like a bright Sun.

"Mimic" of "Sun Exorcism"!

"Brush!"

The warmth of the sunlight instantly dispelled the chill, and the Wraith had already left her body before being swallowed by the light, rushing outside, passing through Blue Woll's body, and leaving the room.

Senor had originally planned to escape!

Several Pirate Admiral chased after him as he ran out, and when they saw the scene outside, they were all greatly shocked.
