Swift Blade Pirates

"The one-month deadline is up. Time to put it into practice!"

Xia Zhiqing looked at Anna, whose figure had grown increasingly alluring but whose gaze had become far sharper, and spoke.

"Yes."

Anna nodded impassively.

She had gone from a woman who felt sick at the sight of blood to a female warrior who was nearly immune to killing.

For an entire month, every day had been hell.

"Let's go. Our first mission is about to begin pleasantly enough!"

Xia Zhiqing glanced at Anna and said.

Anna was now completely different from the frail, helpless woman she had once been.

Six short-range, high-damage firearms were strapped to her long legs.

Two firearms capable of firing throwing knives and poison arrows hung at her waist.

A medium-range sniper rifle was slung across her back, while countless bullets covered her chest.

She was a fully armed female warrior.

That was Xia Zhiqing's assessment of her.

"Got it."

Anna nodded silently and followed Xia Zhiqing onto the long-unseen deck.

"Our first target is the Swift Blade Pirates!"

"Their captain has a bounty of 58 million Beli. I'll handle the captain and first mate. The rest are up to you!" Xia Zhiqing assigned their roles.

"Got it."

Anna nodded without refusing.

But despite how calm she looked, she was panicking inside.

Meanwhile, Xia Zhiqing had already sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes to rest.

Over the course of a month, his combat power had increased by 40 points, and the evolution speed of his Three-Tomoe Sharingan had increased somewhat.

Those were Xia Zhiqing's gains over the past month.

He was in no hurry to raise his Sharingan to the Mangekyo level.

He did not want to repeat what had happened a year ago, when greed had driven him to evolve his Sharingan to Two Tomoe too quickly.

As a result, his body had been unable to withstand the Two-Tomoe Sharingan. Every time he used it, he suffered powerful rejection and became extremely weak for days.

The Two-Tomoe Sharingan was already like that, so there was no need to mention the terrifyingly powerful Mangekyo Sharingan.

He would first slowly master the Three-Tomoe Sharingan through use.

The Swift Blade Pirates had been feeling quite pleased with themselves lately.

They had raided a very wealthy kingdom in the New World and obtained a huge fortune.

Most importantly, they had seized a beautiful princess.

This had left their captain, Quick Blade Kida, who cherished beautiful women as much as his life, exceptionally excited.

He had even indulged the princess seven or eight times on the very night they captured her.

For the next two days, he had not stepped out of his room.

Only the princess's screams rang out without end.

It was not until today that Kida finally emerged, looking utterly drained.

"Hehe, Boss really has incredible stamina! You fought for two days and three nights straight. This subordinate is impressed!"

Seeing Kida, the helmsman flattered him with a lewd grin.

"Boss is truly vigorous! If it were us, we'd probably be dried-up corpses by now!" the gunner chimed in.

Their eyes kept darting toward Kida's room, filled with undisguised desire.

"Enough, enough. What's the use of just looking? She's yours."

Kida glanced at the two of them and waved his hand impatiently.

"Hehehe, thank you, Boss!"

The two of them immediately rushed into the room like a gust of wind.
