Chapter 266

The two brats who just came to the Wang Gong Society to meet me.

One of them is only four years old!

This one is even worse!

A thirteen-year-old boy I can accept.

What does it mean to send a four-year-old brat over?

Do you want to die faster?

"Those two brats are most likely already dead at the hands of those pirates."

"I must plan carefully…"

"I must rely on myself to eliminate those ruthless pirates!"

Thought Desishi Sect.

At that moment.

Tap-tap-tap—

A loud clatter of footsteps suddenly reached from outside the Gongdiande Sect.

"Your Majesty!"

A voice filled with urgency and reverence followed.

Immediately after,

a man dressed in black hurried into the magnificent palace.

He was precisely the spy originally dispatched by Desishi Sect to closely observe Lu En and Lu Qi.

Upon seeing the black-clad man return,

Desishi Sect raised an eyebrow, his gaze carrying a degree of gravity: "Well? Those two insolent brats should be dead by now, killed by those vicious pirates, right?"

"Did the pirates, angered by the brats' appearance, take out their fury on the captives?"

"Tell me the exact details—leave out not a single piece of information!"

"I want to hear the full account, from start to finish!"

With those words spoken,

the black-clad man nodded hastily, swallowed hard, and then tremulously revealed the truth.

"Your Majesty, you are mistaken."

"Those two brats…"

"They are not dead!"

Hearing this,

Desishi Sect's brow tightened further: "You mean those two brats actually negotiated successfully with the pirates? Those wicked pirates actually bargained with two children? Are you joking?"

The black-clad man shook his head: "You misunderstand. From beginning to end, those two never negotiated with the pirates."

Desishi Sect grew even more confused: "What do you mean? If they didn't negotiate, how are those two brats still alive? Shouldn't they have been torn apart by the pirates long ago?"

Desishi Sect had Shenyouti Society with the cruelty of those pirates.

He did not believe it.

That those pirates would suddenly show mercy and spare those two brats!

"N-no, that's not it."

The black-clad man continued to deny.

"Just spit it all out!"

Desishi Sect was growing impatient.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The black-clad man, terrified, blurted out: "The pirates who captured over a dozen of our kingdom's nobles and five hundred soldiers—the Sword Lion Pirate Crew!"

"Just now, they were completely annihilated!"

"Over four thousand pirates—all wiped out in an instant!"

"Thus,"

"the captives taken by those pirates from our Rosed Kingdom are now safe."

"The Sword Lion Pirate Crew, including their captain Sword Lion Gao Da and the other four officers, are all dead—slain on the spot!"

"The remaining pirates have mysteriously fallen into a comatose state…"

As the black-clad man's words fell one after another,

at that moment,

Desishi Sect was stunned.

Had he misheard?

The Sword Lion Pirate Crew had been wiped out?

Confirmed?

That was a massive pirate crew numbering over four thousand!

Just like that… gone?

And yet…

Their captain, Sword Lion Gao Da, was a Devil Fruit user, with a bounty of forty-eight million Berries from the Marines!

Such a powerful monster was dead?

Impossible!

"Do you even know what you're saying?"

Rosede IV could no longer sit still, and hurriedly pressed for an answer.

"Your Majesty, this is the absolute truth."

"Even though I was separated by several thousand meters at the time, I still clearly witnessed that scene."

"The Sword Lion Pirates really were wiped out by someone."

The black-clad man said.

"You aren't about to tell me…"

"That group of pirates, a full four thousand-plus men, were all wiped out by those two brats, are you?"

Rosede IV was greatly horrified.

"No, that's not it."

The black-clad man thought for a moment, then shook his head.

"I knew it—how could those two brats possibly possess such terrifying strength."

Rosede IV breathed a sigh of relief.

But then,

the black-clad man's words instantly left Rosede IV dumbfounded.

"In fact."

"The ones who wiped out that band of pirates were not those two."

"But merely…"

"Just one of those two!"

The words fell.

Rosede IV's eyes went wide, his mind shaken to its core.

His throat went dry, and he cried out: "Wh-what did you say?! One of them single-handedly wiped out that band of utterly vicious pirates? Are you certain?"

"Was it that thirteen-year-old boy?"

"The moment I saw him, I knew that boy was definitely not simple!"

It could be seen that,

the black-clad man shook his head: "No! Your Majesty, you've guessed wrong again. It wasn't that boy, but the youngest among them—he is the one who, by his own strength alone, was the core of wiping out that band of pirates!"

"A being only four years old…"

"All alone, he wiped out a full four thousand-plus pirates!"

"He even personally blew apart on the spot the great pirate Gart, whose bounty was close to fifty million Berries, along with the other four officers, who likewise died miserably at this one's hands."

"He's far too strong!"

"Even though I was separated by several thousand meters, his presence still brought me an extremely terrifying sense of pressure. In my entire life, I have never seen such a powerful being!"
