Eating Fishmen

Luo Ze's Moonwalk was incredibly fast. His 50 points of Agility had greatly boosted his speed. Before the fish-man's scream had even faded, Luo Ze was already closing in on them. In the blink of an eye, he had landed on the bow of their ship.

After landing on the ship, Luo Ze did not focus on the fish-men before him. He swiftly swept his gaze over the surroundings and quickly confirmed that there were no other fish-men nearby. Only then did he slowly withdraw his gaze.

"Human, who are you?!"

Bashemanda stared coldly at Luo Ze, wariness filling his heart as he carefully questioned him.

At the same time, he scrutinized Luo Ze from head to toe.

Luo Ze was tall and powerfully built. Although he was now wearing clothes, the clear lines of his body could still faintly be seen beneath them. However, such physical attributes were not enough to draw Bashemanda's attention. Fish-men were born with immensely powerful bodies, and Luo Ze's physique looked far inferior to theirs.

"The man here to kill you."

Luo Ze answered calmly as he drew his longsword from its sheath with one hand. The instant the sword left its sheath, the blazing sunlight struck its blade and reflected a dazzling gleam.

"Hmph! Foolish human. Daring to oppose fish-men is nothing but courting death."

Bashemanda snorted coldly and swiftly assumed his stance.

"Fish-Man Karate, Five Hundred Brick Fist!"

He shouted as power rapidly gathered in his hand. Aiming at Luo Ze from afar, he threw a vicious punch through the air.

Crack! Crack!

Bashemanda's force was immensely powerful. As his mighty fist struck out, the air it hit trembled, and a transparent ripple shot swiftly toward Luo Ze.

"Shave."

Luo Ze's gaze remained calm. He casually stomped one foot against the ground, and a strange sound suddenly rang out. Only an afterimage remained in the air as he easily evaded the attack.

Fish-Man Karate possessed considerable power, but it was not particularly fast. Against opponents known for their speed, it held no advantage whatsoever.

Luo Ze was extremely fast. In Bashemanda's eyes, the attack seemed to move in slow motion. He only needed to use Shave to evade it with ease.

After dodging Bashemanda's attack, Luo Ze did not stop there. He stamped down once more and rapidly used Shave to shift positions.

The next second, Luo Ze appeared again. This time, however, he had materialized directly in front of Bashemanda, so fast that the fish-men barely had time to react.

"What?! How could a human possibly be this fast?!"

Bashemanda shouted in disbelief. He simply could not understand how a mere human could unleash such astonishing speed.

"A frog at the bottom of a well, smug over the gifts you were born with?"

Luo Ze looked coldly at Bashemanda. Then, with a forceful swing of his arm, he slashed his sword toward the fish-man's head.

"No!" Watching the longsword descend upon him, Bashemanda let out a despairing wail. Fish-men possessed powerful bodies, but they would still die if struck by blades.

The trajectory of Luo Ze's sword was incredibly precise. If it hit him, he would undoubtedly die.

Terrified, Bashemanda hurriedly raised an arm to block, hoping to halt Luo Ze's attack. But Luo Ze's expression did not change as he slashed down fiercely, cleaving both fish-man and arm in half.

Riiip!

Bashemanda's flesh tore apart, blood dripping down as his body quickly split into two halves and collapsed onto the deck.

Telkobi's face turned deathly pale, and terror filled his heart as he looked at Luo Ze. Bashemanda's strength had been nearly equal to his own. Since Luo Ze could kill Bashemanda in a single exchange, he could naturally kill Telkobi just as instantly.

He looked at Luo Ze in panic, despair appearing on his face.

"Impossible! How could a mere human be this powerful?"

Luo Ze flipped his longsword, spinning its hilt several times within his palm until it formed a huge circular blur. With a casual toss, the spinning sword flew like a dart toward Telkobi's head, slicing his skull cleanly in half from the bridge of his nose.

"Nothing is impossible," Luo Ze muttered to himself.

The vastness of the sea was beyond the imagination of these frogs at the bottom of a well.

He killed the remaining fish-men in the same manner. Before long, fish-man blood had drenched the deck.

Luo Ze cut open the massive chests with one slash and discovered that they were filled with gold. It seemed there must have been quite a few gold mines hidden somewhere in these waters, and this gold was what the fish-men had obtained by exploiting human labor.

Luo Ze directly absorbed the gold using the system, and the funds in his system soon rose from seven hundred million to one billion.

Later, just as Luo Ze was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.

He suddenly remembered that he had eaten seafood and fish before, but he had never actually eaten fish-man meat.

He wanted to try the taste of these fish-men. Perhaps it would be delicious?

With that thought, Luo Ze cut several legs from the dead fish-men, removed the feet, and was left with plump, tender thigh meat. Satisfied, he slung the fish-men's legs over his shoulder and used Moonwalk to fly toward the Ghost Sword.

When Luo Ze returned to the Ghost Sword, Monya was standing watch at the bow. It seemed these waters had truly left a tremendous shadow on her, leaving even this renowned Viper restless and uneasy.

Luo Ze's landing from the sky made little noise, but Monya had become somewhat jumpy. The moment he came down, she looked at him in terror. Only after realizing it was him did she relax slightly.

"You look awful. The fish-men scared you this badly?" Luo Ze smiled at Monya. Compared to the arrogant, tsundere Viper from before, he found Monya much more interesting after they entered these waters.

He did not like women who were too defiant, because women like that made him want to kill them outright. In contrast, he preferred obedient women. Thus, Monya, who had gradually become weaker and more compliant toward him after entering these waters, had successfully piqued a bit of his interest.

"Did you succeed?" Monya did not answer Luo Ze's question directly, merely asking one of her own. She truly had become much weaker after coming here. She had once thought she had overcome her fear, but now it seemed that she had merely forgotten it for a while.

"Not one escaped. I killed them all." Luo Ze grinned, revealing his white teeth.

Yet to Monya, he looked like a demon.

"What is that strange thing you're carrying on your back?" Monya suddenly noticed the odd object behind Luo Ze.

"Fish-man legs. Tonight's dinner." Luo Ze answered with a smile. His words fell into Monya's ears, making her shudder uncontrollably.
