At that moment, a person dressed as a judge was standing in the middle of the road at the entrance.

Upon seeing Suika, the man grinned, revealing a smile more like a grimace, while a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes.

"How dare they kill someone and then brazenly stroll into town like this."

"I gave him a chance, but he didn't cherish it..."

Suika doesn't indulge him at all. As an inquisitor, if she weren't a bit mad, she really wouldn't be able to control the even more insane group of lunatics from the Church of the Deep.

Suika admired this greatly, after all, if it weren't for them, the Church of the Deep would have already spread to other countries.

But as much as I admire you, if you give me a hard time, I will retaliate without hesitation.

After all, at least the Great Yan knew to follow a slap with a piece of candy.

You came in all high and mighty, looking like you were about to start a fight. In Suika's opinion, you're not even as good as the officials of the Great Yan.

After all, pride is pride, but Suika has never met someone who doesn't distinguish right from wrong.

But having only been in Iberia for a short time, the first village they encountered was inhabited entirely by Seaborn or was nearly becoming Seaborn.

The second town was even more inhabited by a bunch of arrogant and reckless brutes.

Seeing that Suika still dared to talk back, the man's expression darkened, and he pointed his gun at Suika.

"No matter where you're from or what you're doing here, if you kill someone, you have to follow Iberia rules."

Faced with the threat, Suika did not show any fear, but instead said...

"Is this how the Iberia Inquisition taught you?"

"What..."

Suika's questioning surprised the judge.

"It is very impolite to point a weapon at someone if you are not prepared to fight."

Guns and swords cannot bring true peace.

As Suika spoke, she walked up to the judge and pressed down the weapon he had raised.

"My impression of the Inquisition wasn't bad; I hope you won't disappoint me."

Before he could finish speaking, a gunshot rang out.

The judge was sent flying backwards and crashed into the wall, unconscious.

Looking at the Etched Shell breasts hidden outside her clothes, Suika's expression was quite unpleasant.

She hadn't expected the other party to act so decisively; if she hadn't instinctively retaliated, her clothes would probably have been ruined.

Upon seeing the judge make a move, the Punitive Corps behind her and the reserve force led by the judge in front of her rushed towards Suika.

But the next second everyone froze in place.

It wasn't just because the powerful judge in their eyes was instantly defeated by the opponent, but also because of the ominous, chilling aura emanating from Suika.

Although Suika always considered herself an ordinary person with some strength, her body was that of a true Ghost King.

She was in a very bad mood at the moment, and could even be described as extremely angry.

This kind of anger is just a fleeting feeling for an ordinary person, but as a true powerhouse, her anger can materialize to some extent.

Chapter 509 Ghost King Suika

In an instant, everyone felt as if they had entered a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Suika stood atop the mountain made up of countless corpses, coldly watching them below.

A single glance from him was enough to make it hard to breathe; in an instant, everyone completely lost the courage to move.

They were just standing there on instinct.

Ghost

It is a product of the negative emotions of intelligent life.

Their existence is inherently the opposite of good.

They are also the natural enemies of intelligent life.

The Ghost King is the pinnacle of all ghosts.

Although Suika is usually unpredictable, her body is that of a true demon Ghost King.

Although the soul of an ordinary person suppresses the nature of a demon, this does not mean that she has become weaker.

This doesn't mean she's lost her ghostly powers.

It's just that this power was suppressed within her by her subjective emotions.

But this southward journey into Iberia was met with a devastating blow.

The massacre of the village was not her intention. If those people had really been hiding in the town, she probably wouldn't have done what she did, ultimately destroying the town and erasing all evidence.

The moment those people stepped out of their homes, she knew that she couldn't let any of them escape.

These Seaborn have lived here for over sixty years, accumulating an immeasurable amount of information about the mainland. If released back into the wild, they will severely damage Terra's coastline.

But she couldn't bear to send these people to Inquisition.

Although they had already begun to become Seaborn, and some villagers had even become Seaborn, Suika knew very well what kind of torture these people would suffer once they entered the Inquisition.

That's why she gave these people a quick death, and also why she went to such lengths to kill all the living villagers.

Before the blood debt could be absolved, the Punitive Corps and judges they encountered were completely unreasonable.

If the person she saved with her hands stained red was like this, then what was the point of everything she did before?

This ignited the anger within her.

The intense negative emotions activated her bloodline from the Ghost King.

If Ibuki Suika from Gensokyo saw her at this moment, she would probably admit that this was more like her.

The aura emanating from the Ghost King oppressed all living beings in the surrounding area.

Many people couldn't withstand the strain and fainted.

The remaining people could barely protect themselves.

"Tap tap tap..." He walked heavily to the judge who was vomiting blood.

He was one of the few people who still retained a clear mind.

However, his eyes no longer held madness, but were completely filled with fear.

Even just the sheer aura is something an ordinary person cannot withstand.

Suika glanced at the judge and sighed inwardly; he was probably finished.

Although she was physically healthy and could run and jump, Suika was certain that her opponent no longer had the courage to pick up a weapon.

A person who cannot take up arms cannot even be a soldier, let alone a judge.

However, Suika didn't regret it. She had just realized that something was wrong with her, but she had to let out this anger and couldn't keep holding it in, otherwise she couldn't guarantee that anyone in this town would survive.

Therefore, the culprit behind this incident, the judge, became the outlet for her to vent her anger.

After bearing most of the pressure, Suika finally managed to control her emotions.

She looked up at the sky, and for some reason, even though it was midday, the sky and earth appeared somewhat blood red.

After letting out a long sigh, the aura dissipated, and the crimson hue vanished into the horizon.

At the same time.

On the northern wasteland, a pack of wolves, who were joyfully tearing at each other, suddenly stopped and looked south.

Inside the Laterano Pope’s Hall, Pope Evangelista XI, who was giving instructions to his subordinates, stopped what he was doing and looked solemnly to the south.

On the beach, Carmen, the "Saint," who was on patrol, stopped and looked north.

Further away, on the deck of Rhodes Island, a famous director who was sunbathing suddenly stood up and looked south.

"This aura... it's so sinister... but why does it seem so familiar?"

The lion that had been sleeping deep within Londinium opened its eyes, and a certain unicorn twitched its hooves uneasily.

On an unnamed volcano, a surfing sheep swayed its body for a moment, then continued its enjoyable surfing.

Fortunately, the momentum was short-lived and the distance was far, so most people didn't take it to heart.

The few who were interested simply sent people to investigate.

In the small town, Suika looked at the judge.

"Actually, we didn't need to go this far at all."

Your target should be Seaborn, the Church of the Deep, not a passerby like me.

On the way here, I heard a lot of news about the Inquisition, ninety percent of which was negative.

I initially thought that as the strongest armed force in Iberia, their actions might be somewhat extreme, but the outcome would be positive.

But your actions have shown me that your extremism has crossed the line.

I will continue westward from here. You can notify your Inquisition to continue sending people to arrest me.

But please convey this message to them.

'Remember to choose between saving face and the threat of the deep sea, because next time I won't leave anyone alive.'

After finishing her Suika walked straight into the town.

At this moment, people were fainting everywhere in the town.

Suika raised an eyebrow at this.

"Wow, have I somehow mastered Conqueror’s Haki?"

While complaining, she stepped over the crowd of people who had fainted and sat down in a hotel.

Half an hour later, people gradually woke up.

In the chaos, no one noticed that there was an extra person in the middle.

Many people who were planning to eat chose to leave, Suika unceremoniously found a seat and started eating the food from those who had ordered but left without tasting it.

At this moment, most people were in a state of panic.

After all, it's impossible not to be scared when someone suddenly faints for so long and many people get injured as a result.

Upon learning that the people in the Inquisition outside had also fainted, and that several of them were still unconscious, these people lost their appetite even more.

After they all left, Suika slipped into the kitchen.

The chef here also fainted at the time, but luckily he was cutting cabbage and the knife was left on the cutting board when he fainted. Although the fire was still on, a pot of soup that had just been put on it was cooking.

So luckily, she wasn't injured.

He was about to say something when he saw Suika come in, but Suika a wicked smile and then raised the sake bottle.

Five minutes later, she walked out of the hotel, satisfied, with a pile of spices in her hand.

After gathering all the spices, she headed to the town's bank, intending to withdraw some money. Unfortunately, she found the bank closed, so she had to leave the town with regret.

The next afternoon, reinforcements arrived in the town after receiving news that a judge had been injured.

After investigating the judge's situation, the arriving personnel contacted the Inquisition without hesitation...

Chapter 510 Ambrosius Monastery

Ten days later

Inquisition

Carmen looked at the judge, who was sitting on a stool not far away, trembling, and a trace of pity flashed across her face.

He recognized the other party. Although this judge was somewhat greedy and had an extreme personality, he was indeed a skilled man, and many members of the Church of the Deep had died at his hands.

However, he now doesn't even dare to see anything related to blood, and he can't even hold a regular kitchen knife properly.

He's finished.

This is a fact that everyone knows.
