Chapter 91

3.5 billion Berries,

was simply an astronomical figure!

A bounty of this level was already comparable to the Four Emperors of the New World!

His measly bounty of 17 million

didn't even amount to a fraction of the other's!

What's more,

according to the description of the event details in the newspaper at the time,

this man named Li Xiao in front of him,

after killing two Celestial Dragons on Sabaody Archipelago,

had even fought alone against two Navy Admirals, Kizaru and Akainu,

and finally left calmly!

Such a top-tier powerhouse

would find crushing him to be no more difficult than crushing an ant!

Thinking of this,

Orf felt a chill down his back,

and cold sweat broke out all over his body!

At the same time,

the chat between Li Xiao and Wei En had also ended.

The two reached a friendly cooperation,

Li Xiao would help them solve their current problem,

and they would be responsible for taking Li Xiao to Jaya Island!

Li Xiao looked around,

and said with a smile:

"Just now, who said they wanted to kill me?"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the members of the Blood Leopard Pirates collectively retreated a step,

leaving Olf alone at the very front!

Just as if,

he had voluntarily stepped out of the crowd!

Seeing this,

Olf was furious,

wishing he could slaughter all these useless things on the spot!

However,

in this situation,

the first thing he had to consider,

was to survive in front of Li Xiao!

Under the threat of death,

Olf decisively gave in,

immediately bowed to Li Xiao repeatedly,

and apologized in a panic:

"I, I'm sorry! I didn't recognize you just now, I didn't know they were your friends!"

"We'll leave now! We'll leave now!"

Having said that,

Olf didn't care about the rest of the Blood Leopard Pirates,

turned around and ran toward the tavern door,

trying to escape!

However,

just then,

a voice reached his ears from behind him.

"If apologies were useful, what would swords be for?"

The next second,

a sword light flashed,

and a head fell to the ground!

…………

A few hours later,

on the boundless sea,

a merchant ship was sailing slowly.

On the deck,

Li Xiao threw his fishing hook into the sea,

fixed the fishing rod to the edge of the deck,

and then looked down at a thick book in his hand.

At this time,

besides Li Xiao,

there were several crew members on the deck.

They were each doing their own things,

but their eyes would occasionally steal a glance at Li Xiao,

filled with awe!

After casually beheading Olf with a sword,

the remaining members of the Blood Leopard Pirates fled in all directions!

Regarding this,

Li Xiao didn't continue to chase and kill,

but returned to the merchant ship with Wei En and his group,

and then continued to set off for Jaya Island!

As for Olf's head, which was worth 17 million Berries,

not to mention that Li Xiao had no need for Berries now,

even if he did,

with his current net worth,

he really didn't care for that little money!

However,

just because Li Xiao didn't care,

didn't mean others didn't!

After Li Xiao left,

centered around Olf's head, which was worth 17 million,

another chaos broke out in the tavern!

Even some of the Blood Leopard Pirates who had fled earlier returned,

joining the scramble!

But all of this,

had nothing to do with Li Xiao,

at most, the news that he had appeared on that small island would be passed on.

Wei En, because he was injured,

stayed in the cabin to recuperate after returning to the ship.

And Li Xiao sat alone on the deck,

seemingly fishing,

but in reality, most of his mind was on the thick "Heavenly Net Strange Array Diagram" in his hand!

Modifying the Ark Maxim is not a simple matter!

Normally,

in the true cultivation world,

such immortal sect warships are built by the combined efforts of a sect!

Responsible by specialized artifact refiners,

plus the assistance of cultivators specializing in arrays,

that is to say,

this belongs to professionals doing professional work!

And Li Xiao is a complete amateur,

and his understanding of this aspect,

might not even count as half-baked!

Sixty-four^[

Seventy-four-six-sided understanding,

might not even count as a half-baked level!

Although the initial modification goal wasn't high,

it was still a huge challenge for Li Xiao!

The arrays involved were extremely numerous,

and most of these arrays weren't complicated,

but the scope they covered was messy and broad!

Therefore,

in order to better complete the plan to modify the Ark Maxim,

Li Xiao had to start hurrying to study the "Heavenly Net Strange Array Diagram"!

While Li Xiao was focused on studying the "Heavenly Net Strange Array Diagram",

time passed quietly...

Two days later,

the merchant ship finally arrived at Jiayadao.

Wei En and the merchant ship crew members would settle the cargo they had transported here,

and reload a new batch of cargo

to head to the next location!

After going ashore,

Li Xiao said goodbye to Wei En,

and walked straight toward the town on Jiayadao.

Before leaving,

Li Xiao specially gifted Wei En two types of talismans he had drawn himself.

Before obtaining the "Heavenly Net Strange Array Diagram",

Li Xiao would study the "Detailed Explanation of Basic Talismans" whenever he had free time,

and after so many days,

he had unknowingly learned quite a few new talismans!

And the two types of talismans Li Xiao gifted to Wei En

were basic talismans recorded in the "Detailed Explanation of Basic Talismans",

which were the God-Speed Talisman and the Diamond Talisman,

five of each!

The former could enhance one's speed for a short time,

and the latter could resist a certain amount of damage,

and using them in combination would allow Wei En to preserve his life to the greatest extent!

Li Xiao had made some small modifications to these talismans,

allowing them to be used without spiritual energy activation!

But this modification wasn't permanent,

and as time passed,

the spiritual energy Li Xiao left on them to trigger the talismans would gradually dissipate,

and at that time,

they could only be used by activating them with spiritual energy!

On this vast sea,

being able to meet twice in a row

could be considered quite a bit of fate,

so these talismans were just a small gift Li Xiao left for Wei En.

(There will be another update later today. There have been fewer updates these past two days, and I will try to maintain three updates starting tomorrow. Thank you to the readers who have followed this far~)
