Extortion

Want to leave?

Upon seeing the "Death Announcer" move, Lorry immediately guessed the "King of Immortality's" plan and without hesitation began to activate the "Ocean" authority granted to him by the "Calamity Bracelet." Tsunami!

"Splash--"

Several waves, tens of meters high, rose up without wind and surged toward the "Death Announcer" from all directions, their immense force firmly binding it in place.

Moreover, the constant pounding of the waves was further weakening the black mist's defenses, making the "King of Immortality" Agalito's gaze grow even deeper.

He chose the latter over paying a greater price to force the "Death Announcer" out of attack range, or enduring the enemy's attack and looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

An invisible wave swept across the distance in the blink of an eye.

Agalito noticed that the enemy did not use "Flash" this time, and a thought struck him. He immediately prepared to detonate the emotions buried deep in the enemy's heart.

But the next second, a look of astonishment appeared on his pale face.

The woman with the Flower Bow Tie showed absolutely no emotion!

He had no desires whatsoever! How could this be? Was he even human?! The Pirate King was immediately plunged into deep bewilderment, unable to comprehend the bizarre situation he was experiencing firsthand.

However, as Demigod- level Beyonder with extremely rich combat experience, being bewildered did not affect his instinct to continue his attack.

Ramblings!

Sometimes hoarse, sometimes chaotic, sometimes like babbling, sometimes like singing laughter, the sound traveled far and wide, heading straight for Lorry, who was suspended in mid-air.

He smiled slightly and used "Flash" again without hesitation!

His figure appeared swiftly in another direction.

The "Blatherer's" contamination primarily targets the mind and spirit. Simple Illusions need not be avoided, but now it is Lorry's consciousness that is manipulating the Illusions.

Based on his Spirituality intuition, he had no doubt that if the consciousness within the Illusions were contaminated, it could very well affect the real body.

The attack by the "King of Immortality" that targeted emotions and desires was different.

Before the "Death Announcer" caught up, Lorry had already left behind the Illusions of the "Marionettist" to disguise himself and enter another Dimension ahead of time.

For him, who wore the "Calmness" ring, emotions and desires were luxuries, so there was no need to waste his Spirituality to avoid them. The "King of Immortality" Agalito saw this scene from afar and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, suddenly realizing that his current situation was very bad.

The "Death Announcer's " most powerful ability cannot lock onto an enemy; as a "Demon," his most proficient attacks of emotion and desire are equally ineffective. His mastery of Language of Foulness and spell-like abilities is far too limited in range.

Must I rely solely on my physical strength to fly up to my opponent and engage in close combat? No, my Spirituality tells me it's best not to do that.

As he pondered, Agalito suddenly felt a pang of sorrow and grief:

As one of the "Four Kings," a renowned Pirate King across the Five Seas, Half-Human, Half-God, he was utterly helpless against someone whose Sequence was lower than his own.

After much thought, he realized that apart from passive defense and exhausting the enemy's Spirituality, he had no other potentially effective methods.

The problem is, he doesn't think the other party, who is in control, would be that stupid.

Neither he himself nor the living Sealed Artifact "Death Announcer" could possibly catch up with an Beyonder possesses the "Traveler" Mystical Item.

Thoughts raced through his mind, and the "King of Immortality" fell into a long silence.

Now he faces a very real problem:

What should I do?

They couldn't hit him; they couldn't leave.

The other side had complete control; they could fight or leave as they pleased. Thinking about this, an overwhelming sense of frustration suddenly welled up inside me.

Agalito looked bewildered, raised his head to glance at the sky, and mechanically urged the "Death Announcer" to resist the endless stream of electric snakes and waves.

Meanwhile, in another Dimension.

Lorry sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the situation outside with a slight frown.

He was also pondering a very real question:

What should we do now?

After the brief exchange, Lorry was basically certain that Klein's guesses about the "King of Immortality" and the "Death Announcer" in the Original Novel were correct.

The former is the "Demon" of Sequence 4.

The latter level corresponds to the "Blatherer" in Sequence 3.

Indeed, thanks to the special nature of Illusions, the "Curse of Knowledge," and the dangerous intuition of the "Seer's " Pathway, the other party had no way to deal with him. But similarly, he was powerless against the other party.

Using the "Calamity Bracelet" twice consumed a large amount of his Spirituality, but it still did not cause any real damage to the "Death Announcer".

"Turn around and leave?" The thought flashed through his mind, but Lorry dismissed it in less than a second.

Although I intentionally let the "Death Announcer" catch up to test the abilities of the "Calamity Bracelet" and the bloodline contamination of Cohinem, my goal has now been basically achieved... but leaving empty-handed seems rather embarrassing, he thought to himself, resting his chin on his hands and looking at the Real World with a rather melancholy air.

At this moment, "King of Immortality" Agalito raised his head and looked up, and found that the dark clouds had begun to dissipate, the silver-white lightning was losing its momentum and was being quickly swallowed by the black mist, and the huge waves surging towards the "Death Announcer" were gradually showing signs of calming down.

Unwilling to bear any further losses, he took a deep breath and used the power of the "Death Announcer" to spread his voice far and wide;

"Flower Bow Tie Jodson, your strength has earned my approval. Stop now, or it will benefit no one."

"Don't forget, this is a safe passage in the Fog Sea. The navy of Intis and the Feynapotter Kingdom might have already discovered us."

As soon as the words fell, on the deck of the "Death Announcer," the First Mate "Ghost Butcher," the second mate "Slayer," and others looked at the "King of Immortality" with shocked expressions.

They could hardly believe that their captain, who was now Demigod, would actually take the initiative to seek peace!

Agalito couldn't hold back any longer? Upon hearing this, Lorry's heart stirred, and he quickly controlled the Illusions of the "Marionettist" in the Real World to state his conditions:

"Stopping... isn't something we can't consider."

"But you will have to pay the price for your recklessness by leaving behind a Mystical Item of Demigod level, or everything is off the table."

The wind carried his voice all the way to the deck of the "Death Announcer". As soon as he finished speaking, "Ghost Butcher", "Slayer" and the others looked at each other, their eyes wide with shock, unable to believe what they had just heard.

Many Sailor rubbed their ears, seemingly doubting their hearing.

How could anyone be so audacious as to openly extort a Pirate King? Especially the "King of Immortality," who is widely recognized as the most bloodthirsty and cruelest of the "Four Kings"!

I must have misheard.

Hmm... the aftereffects and hallucinations from being affected by the "talking" earlier...
