Chapter 1926 Battle of the North Sea (72)

This bizarre scene made the whole situation extremely strange.

Except for the area within a hundred meters of Yixiao, the rest of the world was shrouded in dust, forming a huge encirclement, but the dust could not penetrate the area where Yixiao was located.

Seeing this, Caesar took a step forward without hesitation.

As he moved, a violent gust of wind suddenly erupted from his body, like a ferocious beast baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on Yixiao.

The wind howled, blowing away all the dust in its path, and the previously blurry vision became clear in an instant.

Despite the fierce winds, Yixiao stood firm like an unbreakable mountain, completely unmoved.

The two stood facing each other, hundreds of meters apart, their eyes meeting, as if the whole world had stood still at that moment.

"If I remember correctly, your name is Yixiao, right?"

Caesar raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking at the person in front of him with a half-smile, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes, but more so with doubt and certainty.

His voice carried a hint of cynicism, as if he knew the name by heart.

Upon hearing this, Yi Xiao smiled slightly and replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Your Excellency Caesar has a good memory. I never expected that after thirteen years, you would still remember me. I am truly honored!"

His words revealed his respect for Caesar, while also demonstrating his humility.

"Thirteen years..."

Caesar murmured to himself thoughtfully, as if recalling that distant time.

His gaze fell on Yixiao, and he looked her up and down before slowly saying, "I remember you were seriously injured by my sister back then. Speaking of which, you have a history of grudges with our Rockefeller Kingdom, don't you?"

Although his tone was relaxed, the meaning behind it was not to be ignored.

Upon hearing this, Yi Xiao showed no sign of panic or anger. He simply shook his head and said firmly, "I have no intention of making enemies with anyone. Everything I do comes from my heart."

His answer was concise and clear, without the slightest hesitation or concealment.

Caesar was clearly surprised by Yixiao's answer. He had thought that Yixiao would offer some explanation or defense of the grudge, but he did not expect the other party to deny it so decisively.

His brow furrowed slightly, his gaze gradually turning cold as he stared directly at Xiao, pressing for an answer: "Oh? Then what brings you here today?"

His voice no longer held the previous playfulness, but instead conveyed a sense of seriousness and vigilance.

He didn't believe that this person would appear here for no reason.

Moreover, given Yixiao's strength and background, he didn't believe the other party was there to join the Rockefeller Kingdom.

After all, if Yixiao really had this idea, she should have taken action thirteen years ago. Why wait until now?

"I have come here for only one matter!"

Yi Xiao slammed the wooden cane hard on the ground, making a crisp sound that seemed to shake the entire earth.

Although his voice was slow, it carried an undeniable authority that inspired awe.

"Say!"

Caesar's tone grew colder, his gaze as sharp as a cold star, staring coldly at him as if trying to see through his body to his inner thoughts.

With a smile, he slowly raised his head, and his previously closed eyes suddenly opened. Although he had long been blind, his empty eye sockets still stared straight at Caesar, as if he could see through everything about him.

He said in a deep and firm voice, "To save the tens of millions of lives in the North Sea, I urge the Rockefeller Kingdom to withdraw its troops!"

These words exploded in the air like a thunderclap, leaving everyone present stunned.

Caesar, however, burst into laughter as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Wahhahahahahahaha!"

Caesar's laughter was deafening, echoing throughout the space and sending a chill down one's spine.

His laughter contained not only mockery of Yi Xiao, but also a hint of anger, as if he had been provoked by Yi Xiao's words.

"To save tens of millions of lives in the North Sea?"

Caesar laughed so hard he could hardly breathe, tears streaming down his face.

"Who do you think you are? When did it become your place, an outsider, to interfere in the operations of the Rockefeller Kingdom?"

He swung his Green Dragon Crescent Blade sharply, pointing it directly at Yi Xiao. The blade gleamed with a cold light, as if it would kill Yi Xiao at any moment.

At this moment, Caesar displayed his capricious nature to the fullest, making it difficult for people to understand his true thoughts.

Upon hearing Caesar's words, Yixiao gripped the sword in his hand even tighter, as if he wanted to crush it.

His face twitched slightly, revealing his inner tension and unease, but at the same time, a strong belief surged into his heart like a raging wave.

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and then said in a firm and powerful voice, "The North Sea is an independent region with its own culture and traditions, and it does not need interference from outside forces. The arrival of the Rockefeller Kingdom will only disrupt the peace and stability of the North Sea and trigger endless wars. The World Government will absolutely not tolerate the Rockefeller Kingdom's wanton occupation of the North Sea."

Yi Xiao's words exploded in the air like thunder. He looked directly at Caesar without fear, his eyes shining with unwavering commitment to justice and a longing for peace.

Caesar scoffed at Xiao's words, shaking his head dismissively and mocking, "You're so naive! Do you think you understand the true situation in the North Sea? Do you think you can predict the actions and influence of the Rockefeller Kingdom? You're just a self-important fool who thinks he's a savior who can save the world."

Caesar's sarcasm was like a sharp sword, piercing straight into Yixiao's heart.

But Yixiao was not swayed by his words; he remained convinced of his own judgment.

“I am not a savior, but I know what is right and what is wrong. The Rockefeller Kingdom already has a new world, and they should be content with that, instead of continuing to expand and bring disaster to other regions.”

Yi Xiao retorted righteously.

But he was completely unaware that without the Rockefeller Kingdom, the future of the North Sea would have been far more unimaginable.

Because only through the baptism of war can new life and hope be brought about; this is a clash between two completely different ideas.

"I am not a savior, nor have I ever had the thought of becoming one. I merely hope to do everything in my power to stop an endless war!"

With a smile, he slowly raised his head, his greyish-white eyes fixed on Caesar, and calmly spoke.
