if Rayleigh were really to do such a thing,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he would never do it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh was very clear about his own capabilities!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Li Xiao’s strength,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh naturally knew it too!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a month ago,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>during the Celestial Dragon death incident on Sabaody Archipelago,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao had fought two Marine Admirals alone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did he retreat unscathed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but he also severely injured Akainu,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>who almost had to cut off his own arm to save his life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just this one battle\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was enough to roughly deduce Li Xiao’s true strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If two Marine Admirals attacking together were no match for Li Xiao,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then one could imagine\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that even if all three Marine Admirals attacked together,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>they might not be able to do anything to him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this was precisely the reason why the Marines, despite issuing a bounty for Li Xiao,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>were unwilling to easily clash with him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Judging from existing information,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to successfully arrest Li Xiao,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>one would need to mobilize at least four Admiral-level combatants,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>which would almost drain the Marines' top combat power all at once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And when it came down to it,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao couldn't even be considered a true enemy of the Marines!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from killing two Celestial Dragons,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he had basically no grudge against the Marines,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and even when he was in the East Blue,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he had handed over the Arlong Pirates to the Marines for imprisonment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By comparison,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Marines' true enemies were still the pirates on the sea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The true enemies of the Navy are still those pirates on the sea!.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Once the Navy used a large amount of top combat power to pursue Li Xiao,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>leading to internal emptiness,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>then all parties of pirates would definitely not let go of such a perfect opportunity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this way,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>whether the arrest of Li Xiao was successful or not,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it would bring great risks to the Navy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's more,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>who could guarantee that what Li Xiao displayed\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was his full strength?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Navy didn't dare to gamble,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and couldn't afford to gamble!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>when Rayleigh learned from Shakky about the battle result between Li Xiao and Akainu and Huang Yuan,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and even the battle process,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he was shocked!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength Li Xiao displayed,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>compared to Whitebeard, who was now known as the world's strongest man,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the once-acknowledged Pirate King Roger,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>was not inferior in the slightest!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao was still very young!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Rayleigh didn't know Li Xiao's exact age,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>from his appearance,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he was at most in his twenties!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By comparison,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the two people mentioned above,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>one was already over seventy,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>with his life entering the final countdown,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and the other had been dead for over twenty years!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference between them was huge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At Li Xiao's current age,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he hadn't even reached his peak combat period,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and there were infinite possibilities for the future!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Developing according to this trend,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>just how powerful Li Xiao's strength could become,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even Rayleigh found it hard to imagine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it was precisely because he had such powerful strength\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that Li Xiao could, on the Sabaody Archipelago,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>in front of a Navy Admiral,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>openly extort a Celestial Dragon!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this Navy Admiral not only didn't stop him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but even silently put on his sunglasses,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>pretending not to see!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even afterwards,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Navy and the Celestial Dragons couldn't do anything to Li Xiao!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at Rayleigh,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if he really went to do this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the situation would be different!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention anything else,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>at the very least, Huang Yuan would definitely condense an Ama no Murakumo sword and stop Rayleigh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huang Yuan was, after all, a Logia Glint-Glint Fruit user,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>a proper veteran Admiral,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and besides Li Xiao,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>there really wasn't anyone who could make him afraid to make a move!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Rayleigh was once a great pirate who dominated the sea,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>known as the Pirate King's right hand,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he was getting old,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and his stamina couldn't keep up,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>so if he really faced Huang Yuan alone,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>it might be quite difficult!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Celestial Dragons wouldn't be wary of him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if this could be done,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>not to mention how to take away so many Berries,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>even if he did take them away,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he wouldn't be able to spend his later years in peace,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and would have to continue fleeing for his life on the sea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A moment later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh regained his senses,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and asked Li Xiao, who was walking in front:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speaking of which, you've been away from the Sabaody Archipelago for over a month; now that you've suddenly returned, are you preparing to enter the New World?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao nodded,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and replied:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, the first half of the Grand Line has been walked through, it's time to go see the New World!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh raised an eyebrow,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and asked again:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looking at the Navy coming to your door, you must have just arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago, right? The ship hasn't been coated yet, has it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Xiao shake his head,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To get from here to the New World, you need to pass through Fish-Man Island!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And Fish-Man Island is located 10,000 meters under the sea at the Holy Land Mary Geoise; to go there, you must first coat the ship!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And this coating business cannot be sloppy; it concerns your life!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once the coating on the ship breaks in the deep sea, not to mention the breathing problem, the terrifying pressure alone would be enough to kill you instantly!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, meeting this old man is your luck!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"On the Sabaody Archipelago, when it comes to coating technology, if I say I'm second, no one dares to claim first!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How about I coat the ship for you myself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, this... um... requires a fee!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao shook his head,\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>and said slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You misunderstood; I mean, I don't intend to coat the ship!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh was stunned,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and subconsciously asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not coat the ship? If you don't coat the ship, how are you going to Fish-Man Island?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rayleigh suddenly remembered Li Xiao's goal for going to the auction—the Treasure Tree Adam,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and immediately thought of a possibility,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>hurriedly asking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You wouldn't happen to not even have a ship, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xiao subconsciously nodded,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>but after thinking carefully,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the Ark Maxim he left on the Sky Island,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>although it was only a half-finished product that had been modified halfway,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>could still be considered a ship,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and in terms of performance, it even blew 99.9% of ships out of the water!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Li Xiao shook his head again,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have one, but it's not here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1120,"2026-06-17T01:06:10.717Z","2026-06-17T01:06:32.065Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","71979e29217e092b29e39f32dc4556dabab732ed85937456925757115ff062d3","great-age-of-sail-don-t-disturb-my-cultivation-chapter-141","great-age-of-sail-don-t-disturb-my-cultivation-chapter-139",144,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreat-age-of-sail-don-t-disturb-my-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
