One after another, streaks of Silver-White electricity shot out from the Obsidian Trident, turning the entire Captain's Cabin into Lightning Hell.

With such a close-range burst of power and such a powerful Lightning Impact, even though Jenna "Bribery" Hal Constantine to weaken the attack, she still dared not gamble with the relatively fragile body of a "Witch" to see if she could withstand it.

Like Franca, she shattered into pieces amidst the chaotic, silvery arcs of electricity, reflecting a blinding light.

Their bodies then formed a line at the entrance to the Captain's Cabin's cabin.

Lightning still strikes here.

Franca didn't dare linger. She grabbed Jenna's arm and, before the Paralysis from the Lightning Serpents could worsen rapidly, activated the remaining gem in the "Seven-Stone Bracelet".

"Flash"!

She and Jenna disappeared at the same time at the Captain's Cabin door, "Flash" to a wooden table in the room diagonally opposite.

During this process, both Franca and Jenna saw metal sliding on the ceiling of the Captain's Cabin, revealing one dark, gaping hole after another.

With a whoosh, blue seawater poured into the Captain's Cabin through the large holes like a waterfall, and the metal door of the Captain's Cabin closed immediately.

As Franca and Jenna's figures emerged, faint traces of electricity lingered on their bodies, and they trembled uncontrollably.

Immediately afterwards, the last gem of the "Seven-Stone Bracelet" shattered, and all "Flash" abilities were used up, leaving only two diamonds representing "Teleportation".

Lumian and Anthony, who were near the stairwell in the corridor, were surprisingly unharmed by the electric shock.

This wasn't because the Lightning Storm that erupted in the Captain's Cabin didn't spread to them along the metal floor and walls, but because Lumian took out the Gray-White Lightning -shaped Brooch "Sea’s Wrath" from the "Traveler’s Bag" and tossed it to his side.

One of the Negative Effect of this Mystical Item is that it has a significant chance of attracting lightning strikes on rainy days.

This demonstrates its strong Gravity to Lightning!

As Lumian had predicted, most of the leaping and spreading tiny Lightning Serpents gathered on "Sea’s Wrath," making it resemble a blooming silver-white flower.

Thus, Lumian and Anthony only suffered a slight numbness from the remaining electric Impact, but did not lose their ability to move.

Looking at the now-closed Captain's Cabin door, Lumian raised an eyebrow and muttered to himself, "Hall Constantine was seriously injured in the last attack and has decided to close the Captain's Cabin to allow him to recover?"

For Lumian, it's not fair to say that "Deep Sea Admiral" had any problems with his response. Since it was possible, it was indeed one of the best options given the situation. After all, Hal Constantine had no way of knowing his strength while he was just smiling and observing without making a move, nor did he know if Franca, Jenna, and Anthony had any other abilities. If he encountered a terrifying howl similar to that of the "Banshee" Sequence, Hal Constantine, weakened by the "Witch's " Black Flame, would most likely die instantly.

The option of sealing off the Captain's Cabin and restoring it first perfectly suited Lumian and the others' expectations. They hadn't originally planned to kill Hal Constantine before the Destiny exchange was complete, and this scene of waiting for time to pass peacefully without fighting was exactly what they had been dreaming of.

"We must be wary of the secret passage in the Captain's Cabin, which Hal Constantine might use to escape, or he could simply jump into the sea," Franca, who had recovered, reminded Lumian.

She was extremely experienced in assassinations.

"I'm keeping an eye on it," Lumian replied succinctly as he picked up "The Sea’s Wrath."

He is monitoring the situation through the exchange of Destiny and through his own senses and spiritual awareness.

If the "Deep Sea Admiral" shows any signs of escaping, he will immediately blow open the metal door to the Captain's Cabin.

As long as Hal Constantine is not directly attacked, the exchange of Destiny will not be interrupted!

Franca's hands were still trembling slightly, and she smelled faintly of burnt food as she sighed, "Hal Constantine almost completely ruined our efforts with just Lightning Impact and the fact that Spirit Body spirit was protected by an object. And then there's the special environment here."

"If it weren't for our abundance of Mystical Item and our relatively good teamwork, we would most likely have been defeated, forcing you to abandon your previous attempts and participate in the battle yourself."

"What's this called? This is called 'one force overcomes all techniques.' No matter what Extraordinary Ability you use, I'll strike you with Lightning Strike and, by utilizing the environment, transform it into a weakened version of Lightning Storm."

She was also trembling, and the aroma of roasting wafted from her mouth, but Jenna was in much better condition, nodded slightly in agreement.

Having been in charge of frontal combat, she deeply understands this.

Outside the Carnival Bar, the pirates and fake pirates watching watched as the heavy wooden gate suddenly swelled up and crumbled into pieces.

Boom!

An explosion followed, flinging the door frame and the cracked Wooden Door in all directions.

"The Great White Shark" Jörg and his entourage finally came into view of the onlookers at https://www. hetushu. com. com

Most of them were carrying injuries, some minor and some serious, their expressions grave. They didn't bother with pretense and ran frantically towards the Dock.

Both the pirates and the fake pirates who witnessed this scene had similar thoughts:

"Defeat?"

"Even the ' Deep Sea Admiral's' most capable subordinates, when they all attacked together, were defeated?"

"Are they going back to the ' Deep Sea Admiral ' for help?"

"That was a really pathetic run..."

As their thoughts raced, the onlookers turned their attention back to the interior of the "Carnival Bar," where they saw broken tables and chairs, several exploding barrels, and the aroma of alcohol and burnt smells filling the air, but there was no sign of the unknown adventurer.

This left both the real and fake pirates bewildered and puzzled, not understanding what it meant.

Glug, glug, in the sealed Captain's Cabin filled with azure seawater, Hal Constantine's body, wrapped in a black cloak, floated in the water, with bubbles constantly rising to the surface.

The "Deep Sea Admiral" lay with his translucent Octopus face slightly lowered, gazing at the metal floor submerged in water, feeling his soul being nourished and rapidly recovering from his weakness.

After several seconds, Hal Constantine slowly but firmly raised his head and looked at the closed metal door.

Outside the door, Lumian turned to Franca and said, "It's almost finished. Go stand by the door and show your face. If Hal Constantine can feel ultimate Pleasure from seeing your true form as the ' Pleasure Witch,' the digestion effect might be even better."

"This is so weird..." Franca muttered as she walked to the opposite side of the Captain's Cabin and stood with her back against the metal wall.

She pulled down her Hood, revealing a bright and elegant face.

She wanted to strike another pose, but she just couldn't relax.

In full view of everyone!

Lumian estimated the progress, walked to the Captain's Cabin door, and placed his hands on the metal door.

The Blazing White Flames instantly condensed, compressed layer by layer, and poured into the metal gate.

Rumble!

The metal door dented rapidly backward from the violent explosion, then shattered.

With a whoosh, the azure seawater surged out, but was temporarily pushed back by the Impact from the explosion.

Hal Constantine's image appeared in Lumian and Franca's eyes, a look of anticipation on their lips.

Taking advantage of his recent recovery, he activated the defense system of the "Newins". Next, he will fight four assassins with the help of this Alchemical Ship.

In that state, even Half-God could hold out for a while!

This is the main reason why he didn't jump out of the Captain's Cabin's cabin and into the sea when the door was closed.

Suddenly, he saw an exceptionally beautiful face and a figure whose beauty was still evident even though it was covered by Leather Armor armor and robes.

He was briefly lost in thought.

Just then, Hal Constantine's mind went blank for a moment.

The blank space was then filled with extreme Pleasure, which exploded, making Hal Constantine's soul seem to shatter and be thrown around.

He stood frozen in place, his blood staining the azure seawater that had not yet overflowed from the Captain's Cabin.

His tears flowed instantly, mingling with the seawater.

Those were tears of Pain, and tears of joy.

Without a sound, the translucent Octopus covering Hal Constantine's face fell off, revealing his true face.

It was a face that could be described as handsome, but the features and contours were not very defined, rather soft.

Upon seeing this, Franca's heart suddenly skipped a few beats.

This is very similar to the man she encountered in the Trier Catacombs, who is suspected to be Harrison from Resurrection Island.

This doesn't mean they look similar in physical details, but rather that their styles are quite similar.

This is a face with an "Eastern Style, but it doesn't have Harrison's pure features; it's more like a mixed-race person!

Franca was stunned when she heard the illusory shattering sound and felt the "Pleasure" Potion completely digested.

She then saw an illusory Starry Sky, filled with countless glittering stars of all sizes.

Just as Lumian was about to kill the heavily damaged "Deep Sea Admiral" Hal Constantine after his lustful outburst, he suddenly sensed that the surrounding environment had become extremely dangerous, and heard the mechanical sounds coming from the entire "Newins".

It's like a killing Machine awakening.

Without Greed, Lumian decisively reached out and grabbed Franca and Jenna's shoulders respectively, releasing the "Fictional Bottle".

Seeing this, Anthony quickly stepped to the side and grabbed Lumian's clothes.

The four figures quickly disappeared into the corridor Captain's Cabin.

They were "Teleportation" back to the hotel in Banaam Harbor.

Soon, pirates near the Dock discovered that the "Newins" had furled its masts and sails, resealed itself, and submerged into the Seabed.

At this point, "The Great White Shark" Jörg and the others had not yet run back to the Dock!

"They ran away?"

"The ' Deep Sea Admiral ' just ran away?"

"He hasn't even fought that adventurer yet, and he's already run off, abandoning even the first mate, second mate, and Sailor?"

"..."

In an instant, all sorts of thoughts surged in the minds of the pirates near the Dock.
