#65 - Chapter 65: Pirates' Counterattack
“Jie hahaha...”
“Navy brat, I've heard some incredible news, all thanks to you.”
A chilling wave of killing intent suddenly surged from the shadows.
From the darkness, a figure swiftly emerged, brandishing a sharp blade, launching a fierce attack on Jin.
Jin's Observation Haki allowed him to react quickly in the face of danger. He punched the blade that was slashing towards him, but was still forced back.
“You pirate, didn't you die in the sea?”
“Jie hahaha...”
“This daddy ain't that easy to kill. I still need to hang your head on my pirate flag!”
Litt roared, his massive figure gleaming menacingly in the light.
“You're unlucky to have run into me. I've sailed the seas for 20 years, seen countless storms. What can a mere Sea King do to me!”
Jin looked at the tattered pirate, “I have a feeling you just got lucky, frozen and drifted here?”
“Hmph!”
Litt snorted coldly. That was indeed the case, but he would never admit it.
“Say what you want, but… you won't be leaving here alive today!”
“……”
At the same time.
The pirate's underlings quietly approached the father and daughter, their steps light, their eyes cold, preparing to seize them silently.
“Olga, quickly, hide behind me!”
The girl's father immediately sensed the danger. He shielded his daughter, ready to protect her from the pirates at the cost of his life.
“Olga, is it? If you don't want to die, listen to us乖乖 and take us to the pure gold!”
The pirates, wielding sharp blades, surrounded the father and daughter like demons, their faces bearing wicked smiles, their eyes gleaming with greed.
“We won't take you to the pure gold.” His voice was cold and firm. “You won't succeed.”
The man kept his eyes on the pirates in front of him, knowing he had to protect his daughter, no matter the cost.
The path to the pure gold was fraught with danger. He couldn't let his daughter risk it.
Moreover, these pirates would definitely silence them all after finding the pure gold.
It was better to resist to the end here, perhaps there would be a glimmer of hope.
“If you don't cooperate, we won't be polite.” The small boss's voice was full of malice and threat. “We know you know the whereabouts of the pure gold, don't try to hide it.”
“The fact that we arrived here alive means the pure gold is calling us, don't be ungrateful!”
The pirates roared angrily, the blades in their hands pointing threateningly at the father and daughter.
Olga tightly grasped her father's hand, her eyes flashing with determination.
“We won't succumb to your threats.” She looked around at the pirates, showing no fear. “If you have the guts, kill us. That way, you'll never know the whereabouts of the pure gold!”
The pirates' gazes turned even colder. They understood this was not an easy target.
“You either cooperate, or… cooperate with us with a knife pointed at your throat.”
“There is no other choice.”
“……”
“Die, kid!”
Litt roared, his massive figure gleaming menacingly in the sunlight. He wielded his huge blade, letting out a furious roar, and slashed at Jin like a thunderclap.
Jin was not afraid. He covered his hands with Armament Haki and charged forward to meet the pirate captain's attack.
The two attacks clashed in the air, the afterimages of the blades shimmering like flames.
Litt's attack was powerful and heavy, the huge blade whistling through the wind, its power terrifying.
However, Jin's skills were even sharper than his opponent's. His figure was as agile as a leopard, every movement precise, every attack landing on the enemy's weak points.
“Boom!!!”
The sounds of the huge blade colliding with the fist echoed endlessly, the surrounding gastric juices churning from the impact of the aftershocks.
The next moment, Litt stared at Jin with a gloomy gaze.
“Taste the flavor of this monster's gastric juices.”
He gripped the huge blade with both hands and swung it violently, causing the huge blade to collide with the gastric juices.
In an instant, the entire area was enveloped by gastric juices, forming an encirclement, also engulfing Jin.
Looking at the gastric juices surging towards him, Jin smiled disdainfully.
“Forget about these petty tricks.”
Jin stepped on the ground, and all the surrounding sand and soil rose into the air, forming a thick wall of dust that firmly blocked the gastric acid Litt was striking at him from the outside.
“You little brat, you're so cunning!” Litt roared, his eyes flashing with anger. “Today, I will definitely make you die here!”
A sneer appeared on Jin's face. He was not afraid of the other party's threat.
“You're not qualified!” he responded coldly. “Let me tell you what a true powerhouse is!”
Jin breathed out, then strode forward, his toes touching the ground, his figure rushing towards the enemy like lightning, each step carrying unparalleled power and speed.
Behind him, the wind howled, stirring up the dust on the ground.
Jin's figure rapidly magnified in Litt's eyes, each step bringing an undeniable pressure.
In his opinion, the other party's figure was like a fierce beast, about to launch a fatal blow.
“So fast...”
Pressure came crashing down, and Litt couldn't help but panic when he saw Jin's unstoppable momentum.
“Boom!!!”
With a loud bang, the fist collided with the opponent's huge blade, sparks flying everywhere.
A moment later, the huge blade snapped in half, and Jin's fist continued unabated, directly hitting the opponent.
Litt's body drew a beautiful arc in the air, then crashed heavily to the ground.
“……”
Amidst the flying dust, Litt struggled to his feet, barely standing, but his legs were trembling, almost unable to stand steady.
Feeling the sharp pain coming from all parts of his body, especially in his chest, his chest had collapsed, leaving a deep fist mark.
Litt spat out a mouthful of blood and suddenly laughed, revealing his blood-stained teeth.
“Right now, your strength is stronger, but… I'm still the better strategist!”
As he spoke, his subordinates suddenly appeared on the field, grabbing the father and daughter and dragging them in front of the protagonist.
“But… it ends here!”
“I've already caught the people I want, I'm no longer interested in you.”
Litt grabbed Olga's arm with his right hand, and a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.
“I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to protect my daughter.” The man's hands were tied behind his back, his eyes filled with regret.
The father and daughter's faces were full of guilt and unease. They were firmly controlled by the pirates and unable to break free.
“Let them go!” Jin's chilling voice spread throughout the venue.
His words were full of majesty and unquestionable.
Litt had hostages in his hand and was not panicked at all. He pulled Olga in front of him.
“I'm not here to compete in strength, my goal has always been treasure.”
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his palm, “No matter what means are used, we must achieve the final victory, this is our pirate code!”
“Jie hahaha...”
