He sensed that he was about to encounter a deadly danger, and the source of it was the man hovering in mid-air hundreds of meters away!

In a flash, "Slayer" Kircheis's gaze swept over the First Mate "Ghost Butcher," the First Sailor Chief, the Third Sailor Chief, and the Fifth Sailor Chief, all of whom were of the "Devil" Pathway. Seeing that they had expressions almost identical to his own, his fear intensified.

That "Malice Perception" I felt earlier wasn't an illusion! "Flower Bow Tie" Jodson really does possess the ability to pose a deadly threat to me! But how is that possible?!

When they last met at the Pirate Gathering, he seemed quite ordinary... As these thoughts raced through his mind, Kircheis looked at the figure ahead.

The next second, he saw his captain, one of the famous "Four Kings" of the sea, the "King of Immortality" Agalito, with an incredulous expression.

"Captain?!" Kircheis couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

The "King of Immortality" Agalito remained silent, raising his head to gaze into the distance, countless thoughts racing through his mind.

"Flower Bow Tie" Jodson is dangerous, the kind of danger that could kill me... but "Malice Perception" tells me that the real danger isn't the person, but something about him... perhaps that's what I sensed Oldest One, something from the "Abyss"...

Over the years, I've been using the legend of the "Fountain of Youth" to play the "Demon," absorbing the Sequence 4 Potion, while simultaneously searching for hope of Advancement... Now, the former goal has been largely achieved, but the Formula for the next Sequence remains a complete mystery... And now, I finally see a glimmer of hope...

In an instant, the Pirate King made up his mind:

Take the initiative and strike first! Even if it involves some risk, I will never give up!

As long as he doesn't leave the range of the "Death Announcer," even the "King of the Five Seas," Nast, can only defeat him at most, not capture him!

The thought flashed through his mind, and without hesitation, "King of Immortality" Agalito let out a sharp, malicious laugh in the direction of the enemy.

This is the ability of a "Blatherer"!

It can corrupt the mind and spirit of enemies through sound, causing them to either lose control directly, suffer severe damage, become mentally confused, or be cursed.

His Sequence couldn't do this, but "Death Announcer" could!

This is a Sealed Artifact with living characteristics, its Beyonder Characteristic originating from a "Blatherer," Sequence 3 of the "Abyss" Pathway!

"Hahaha!

"Hahaha!"

At that moment, the laughter seemed to take on a tangible form, and wherever it passed, countless aquatic creatures either exploded, underwent mutations, or floated belly-up to the surface.

A Pirate King of all renown, ambushing me, a Sequence 7, no, Sequence 6... Doesn't he have any dignity at all? Truly a treacherous and cunning "Demon"... Lorry thought to himself.

While inwardly cursing this "King of Immortality," he calmly searched for the White Bone Ring, his figure suddenly vanishing from the spot. In the blink of an eye, he appeared behind the "Death Announcer."

This is a "Flash" of the "Traveler"!

Thanks to his extraordinary sense of danger honed by the "Seer" Pathway, he was already on alert almost the instant the "King of Immortality" made his move.

Now it's my turn, right? Here's a little something for you! With that thought, Lorry raised his right palm, aiming it at the enormous thing.

Where are they?

On the deck of the "Death Announcer," Kircheis and the others, who had been covering their ears to avoid being affected by the delirium, lowered their hands, looked at each other, and had the same question in their minds.

Alerted by the "Malice Perception," they turned around abruptly and saw the "Flower Bow Tie" who had been in front suddenly appear behind the "Death Announcer."

He also possessed a Mystical Item crafted using the "Traveler's " special abilities? Thinking this, "King of Immortality" Agalito narrowed his eyes and spoke in a low voice:

"Close your senses."

Having said that, he prepared to use the "Death Announcer" to utter even more terrifying ravings, while simultaneously spreading contamination in all directions to counter the enemy's "Flash."

But the moment this thought crossed his mind, a scene resembling an Apocalypse catastrophe flashed through the Pirate King's mind, and his expression changed slightly:

"Quickly, hide inside..." Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly remembered the order he had just given, a shadow of gloom flashing across his eyes, and he quickly activated the "Death Announcer."

"Whoosh--whoosh--"

Thick black fog continuously seeped out from the gaps in the deck, quickly filling the entire "Death Announcer," enveloping both people and the ship completely.

"Malice Perception..." Lorry sighed regretfully, lamenting how difficult it was to kill those Beyonder through the "Abyss" Pathway. He then waved his right hand, adorned with the "Calamity Bracelet," and whispered in Ancient Hermes:

"Lightning Storm!"

Countless dark clouds quickly gathered, and with a muffled thunderclap in the night sky, countless silvery-white lightning bolts fell like raindrops.

Amidst the crackling of electricity, an area within a hundred meters of the "Death Announcer" was filled with an aura of brutal destruction, as if the Apocalypse had arrived.

Lightning flashed across the night sky, illuminating the world as bright as Daylight!

Accompanied by the Affliction wails of countless Distortion Spirit Body, the dense fog enveloping the "Death Announcer" thinned at a visible rate.

Despite its continued efforts to produce more black mist, it still couldn't keep up with the rate of consumption.

"Sea King?" The King of Immortality Agalito murmured in surprise and uncertainty, then turned sharply. "Sacrifice more prisoners!"

"Yes!" Kircheis and the others, pale-faced and chasing after their captain, didn't dare waste a second and ran frantically towards the place where the prisoners were held. They were quite clear about one thing:

If this matter isn't resolved before the "Death Announcer's" defensive capabilities are exhausted, the sacrifice might very well become one of them.

Their captain is perfectly capable of doing something like that!

"Don't kill me... Ah!"

"I'll be waiting for you bastards in the underworld!"

Please!

"..."

The black mist surged at a visible rate, and faint sounds of screams, pleas for mercy, curses, and cries could be heard.

The "King of Immortality" Agalito seemed oblivious, continuing to gaze silently into the distance.

The Sealed Artifact created using the "Sea King" ability is on par with the "Death Announcer," no wonder Jodson was so arrogant earlier, claiming this was his home turf...

However, how many times can you use this level of Sealed Artifact...? So what if it's on your home turf...? Victory will ultimately belong to me...

Collecting his thoughts, Agalito began to control the "Death Announcer" to move away, preparing to forcibly escape this area and avoid the enemy's painstakingly prepared offensive. Using Spirituality energy to consume spiritual Spirituality was clearly a worthwhile exchange for him.
