Chapter 786

I played it just right!

The plot isn't developing as it should…

Red-Hair looked utterly baffled.

This isn't how things were supposed to go!

He had gone to great lengths.

He had finally succeeded in persuading Little Lufei to feel longing and admiration for this sea.

Now, looking at it,

Will all his efforts go to waste?

Seeing Little Lufei's disappointed expression, Red-Hair was frantic, his lips twitching uncontrollably.

It seems…

I really overdid it!

I shouldn't have shown mercy to that bandit leader.

Now look what's happened.

In Little Lufei's eyes, I must seem like a true coward!

There's no way to fix this!

"That guy, Fist Demon Lu En…"

"He actually came to ruin my original plans and intentions!"

Red-Hair was furious, bordering on frantic.

He could no longer maintain his calm, composed demeanor.

As things stand now,

The situation has slipped beyond his control.

It has deviated from his expected course… ……

"Calm down!"

Red-Hair took a deep breath and forced himself to stay composed.

He must not lose his composure.

There's still a way!

"Shanks, let me introduce you to my big brother?"

Little Lufei looked at Red-Hair.

Under Little Lufei's gaze,

Red-Hair paused to think.

He nodded: "Alright."

He wanted to see for himself.

This legendary Fist Demon Lu En!

"Later, don't you dare provoke a conflict with my big brother."

"You're pirates…"

"My big brother is Navy! An unprecedented Navy genius!"

"He'll arrest you."

"And with your strength, you probably can't even block one of his attacks."

Little Lufei added weakly.

Clearly,

In his mind,

Red-Hair and the others' strength couldn't match even one of his big brother Lu En's hands.

After all,

A bandit leader who dared to shout at Red-Hair and his crew but dared not fight back was wiped out in one blow by his big brother.

Under such contrast,

Between Shanks and his big brother Lu En—who is stronger?

It's obvious.

"…"

Little Lufei's remarks left Red-Hair speechless.

I just pretended to follow the principle: if others don't bother me, I won't bother them.

How come, in Little Lufei's eyes…

I've become so pitiful?

This shouldn't be happening!

I, a great pirate of the New World, renowned far and wide, ranking nearly as high as the Four Emperors—how could I be seen by this kid as weaker than a five-year-old brat?

"I hate this!"

"Fist Demon, why didn't you show up earlier or later—but right at this critical moment?"

"What exactly are you trying to do?"

Red-Hair was on the verge of tears.

Huh!

He exhaled heavily, forcibly suppressing the storm of thoughts within him.

Next,

In this eerie atmosphere of 3.5.

Creak!

The Jiuguanda Sect's door was slowly pushed open,

and a crisp, melodious sound rang out.

As the door opened,

then,

Tap-tap-tap—

A steady, thunderously clear set of footsteps echoed from outside.

Immediately after,

The entire Red-Haired Pirates crew, led by Red-Haired, all fixed their gazes on the Jiuguanda Sect's door.

Among them,

including Ben Beike Man, Ye Su Bu, Luo Qi Lu, and others.

Their faces were serious, their eyes stern.

In an instant,

they could see clearly.

Only to see.

A boy clad in white robes pushed open the door with both hands; he appeared to be only about five years old, stepping calmly into the interior of the Jiuguanda Sect.

This person, of course, was Lu En!

Gradually,

the footsteps came to an abrupt halt.

Slowly raising his head,

Lu En, expressionless, silently regarded all the pirates within the Jiuguanda Sect.

Meeting the pirates' solemn and heavy gazes…

Finally—

Lu En's gaze settled upon Red-Haired, seated on the chair behind the counter.
