Chapter 1544 Crush by Strength

"Cut!" A sharp sound of air being cut was heard, as if it was the call of the god of death.

Before the two army soldiers could react, they felt a chill in their throats and lost their breath instantly. They fell straight onto the deck, and blood gushed out of their wounds like fountains, covering the deck beneath them.

"Enemy attack!!!" A terrified scream broke the tense atmosphere on the warship, and everyone immediately noticed Xiliu, the uninvited guest.

The soldiers held weapons in their hands, their faces tense. Their eyes were filled with fear and vigilance, and their bodies trembled involuntarily.

Xiliu stood in the middle of the deck, his arms folded across his chest, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile, and said: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to find some food." His voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from hell.

A soldier looked at Xiliu as if he were a fool and shouted, "Pirate! What nonsense are you talking about? You come to our ship to find food?" In his opinion, Xiliu's reason was ridiculous and it was obvious that he came here to deliberately provoke and kill.

A flash of blood instantly flashed across Xiliu's eyes, a light like a burning flame, revealing endless murderous intent. Then, he turned to look at the soldier, his gaze piercing him like a sharp blade, and said coldly, "You, are very good." After saying that, he revealed a cruel sneer, a smile that seemed like the smile of death, which made people shudder.

The next second, a stream of blood sprayed into the air! The Thunderstorm Sword in Xiliu's hand burst into a strange blood-colored energy. The energy surged like a surging tide, and the sword body flashed with a strange light.

He flashed and appeared in front of the soldier like a ghost. He swung the Thunder Rain Sword lightly, and a sharp sword energy instantly swept across the soldier.

The soldier's eyes widened, a mocking expression still on his face, but he could no longer make any sound, and his body slowly fell down.

The surrounding soldiers were frightened out of their wits when they saw this scene.

They all retreated, and the weapons in their hands made clanging sounds due to shaking.

"Don't... don't come over!" said a soldier in a trembling voice, his legs so weak that he could hardly stand.

Xiliu had no intention of stopping. Holding the Thunderstorm Sword, he approached the soldiers step by step. Every step he took left a deep footprint on the deck.

The footprints seemed to be the mark of death, filling the soldiers' hearts with despair.

"You trash, you dare to be so arrogant in front of me?" Xiliu said coldly, his eyes full of disdain and contempt.

At this moment, a tall army officer suddenly rushed out of the warship's cabin.

He held a huge battle axe in his hand, exuding a powerful aura. He shouted, "Stop it! You pirate, don't even think about running wild on our warship!"

Xiliu stopped and turned to look at the officer. A provocative smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and he said, "Oh? Here comes a guy with some skills. Then let me see if you can stop me."

The officer's eyes widened with anger as he shouted, "You villain, today is the day you die!" He then rushed towards Xiliu, brandishing his battle axe. The battle axe drew a huge arc in the air, and with a whirring sound, it smashed down hard on Xiliu's head.

Xiliu was not in a hurry. He dodged the attack easily by moving to the side.

Then, the Thunderstorm Sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning and pierced the officer's chest directly.

The officer strode backward, his body seemed to have lost all its strength, and he fell straight to the deck.

The people around were terrified and retreated like a frightened group, their eyes full of fear and despair.

"These are completely different from the pirates we encountered before!" A soldier shouted in a trembling voice, his legs shaking uncontrollably.

"What a terrible guy, as terrible as General Luchi." Another soldier widened his eyes, his face full of horror, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

"We are no match for him, let's run!" Someone shouted, and the voice was like a fuse, instantly igniting the fear in the hearts of the army soldiers. They all had the idea of ​​escaping, and their feet began to move backwards unconsciously.

At this moment, the Army Major General suddenly stepped forward.

He stood tall and straight, his eyes revealing determination and fearlessness, like an unshakable mountain. "Don't be afraid! Leave this guy to me!"

His voice was loud and powerful, like a war drum, echoing on the warship.

"Major General!" The soldiers looked at his heroic figure and felt the courage in their chests growing rapidly. A glimmer of hope ignited in their originally desperate eyes, as if they saw a bright light in the darkness.

"Pirate, I won't let you hurt..." Before the major general could finish his words, a bloodthirsty light flashed in Xiliu's eyes. His body was as fast as lightning, and he slashed down with a knife!

The knife carried a fierce momentum, as if it was going to split the entire ship in half.

"Dang!!" At this critical moment, the major general used his observation Haki at the critical moment. He instantly predicted the trajectory of Shiryu's attack and swung his weapon to block it.

The sound of metal colliding was deafening and sparks flew everywhere.

But even so, the powerful impact still knocked him away, and his body hit the deck heavily like a kite with a broken string.

The side of the boat creaked as it was hit, and the major general groaned, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Xiliu looked at the major general who was knocked away, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said: "With this little ability, you still want to stop me?" His voice was low and hoarse, full of disdain.

The major general struggled to his feet. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his hand, his eyes still revealing an unyielding look. He said, "Don't underestimate our army! Even if it costs me my life, I won't let you do whatever you want on our warship!"

Xiliu sneered and said, "Let's see how long you can hold out." He then swung the Thunderstorm Sword again and charged towards the Major General. The sword flashed with an eerie blood-red light, like a bloodthirsty venomous snake.

The major general took a deep breath, concentrated, and used his Observation Haki again.

With his observation Haki, he was able to keenly feel the direction and strength of Shiryu's fatal attack.

He tilted his body slightly, like a nimble fish, and narrowly avoided Xiliu's sharp sword attack.

The wind from the sword brushed past the corner of his clothes, causing them to rustle.

However, how could Xiliu let him go so easily? A mocking sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and that smile was like the chill coming from the depths of hell, making people shudder.

Then he raised his left leg, like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, and swept it directly towards the major general's waist.

The kick was extremely fast and powerful, as if it could kick a mountain away.

Even though the major general reacted quickly, he had not yet completely stabilized his body after dodging the sword attack, and he had no time to dodge the kick.

There was a dull "bang" sound, like a heavy hammer hitting a drum. The major general suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist, as if he was hit by a high-speed train.

He instantly lost his balance and bent over, a surge of acid rising up his throat, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of gastric juice, which, with a pungent smell, spilled onto the deck.

The major general's body rolled uncontrollably on the deck like a torn sack blown by a strong wind.

He tried desperately to keep his balance, but the force of Xiliu's kick was too great, making it impossible for him to control his body.

Finally, he rolled to the feet of the soldiers.

The soldiers looked at the major general lying at their feet, their faces filled with fear and worry.

Their eyes were filled with helplessness, and the courage that had been ignited by the major general's courage to step forward had now disappeared without a trace.

"Major General!"

"Are you OK?"

A soldier shouted in a trembling voice, and he hurriedly squatted down, trying to help the major general up.

But the major general's body was as heavy as a boulder, and he was unable to lift him up.

Xiliu stood aside, watching the scene coldly, and said: "Stand up, I'm not satisfied yet."

His voice was full of disdain and sarcasm.

The major general struggled to raise his head. His face was covered in dust and blood, but his eyes still revealed an unyielding look.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't... don't be complacent. Our army will not give up like this..."

Before he could finish his words, he coughed violently again, and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth again.

At this time, a soldier suddenly plucked up the courage and stood up. Holding a spear, he shouted at Xiliu: "You villain, don't hurt our major general!" Although his voice was a little trembling, it was full of determination.

Xiliu glanced at him, a scornful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "You want to stop me too?"

After saying that, he flashed and appeared in front of the soldier like a ghost.

He gently swung the Thunderstorm Sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy instantly killed the soldier.

The soldier's eyes widened, with an expression of anger still on his face, but he could no longer make any sound and his body slowly fell down.

When the surrounding soldiers saw this scene, they all lost their courage.

"Don't... don't come over!" said a soldier in a trembling voice, his legs so weak that he could hardly stand.
