Chapter 820

Little Lufei's face flushed red with humiliation, his anger intensifying.

3.5 Although everyone was mocking Little Lufei…

In truth,

none of the Red-Haired Pirates harbored any malice.

Moreover,

Little Lufei's bold declaration

had deeply imprinted itself upon their hearts.

At the very least,

the Red-Haired Pirate's gaze toward Lu En held a hint of anticipation.

As if awaiting…

Little Lufei's future!

"Find a crew stronger than ours?"

The Red-Haired Pirate savored Little Lufei's earlier words.

He believed,

Little Lufei would surely accomplish it one day!

After all,

Little Lufei is Joy Boy!

"Find the greatest treasure in the world…"

"Become the Pirate King?"

"Little Lufei, your ambitions are truly grand."

"I hope that one day, you truly achieve them."

"Only then will you not betray my anticipation for you. Nor will you betray the long-forgotten lives of this sea, their anticipation for you."

"After all, on your body…"

"Rests an immensely arduous mission!"

"As Joy Boy, you were born with the duty to liberate every chain binding this sea!"

The Red-Haired Pirate's eyes gleamed.

As the Red-Haired Pirates held their feast,

suddenly,

an unexpected guest arrived.

From afar,

when he saw the small, elderly man wearing a hat and chewing on a pipe, Little Lufei's face lit up; he waved both arms wildly and shouted: "Master!"

His loud cry

echoed in all directions.

The once noisy and lively courtyard gradually fell silent.

Dozens of astonished gazes simultaneously fixed upon Nage Li.

All members of the Red-Haired Pirates felt deep curiosity and wariness toward the sudden arrival of Nage Li.

Though they had never fought him…

they still felt acutely

the oppressive aura emanating from Nage Li.

They could be certain:

this little old man's strength was absolutely not to be underestimated!

Even from a great distance,

they still felt the crushing pressure bearing down on them.

Strong!

Extremely strong!

This old man's strength was likely no weaker than the top-tier experts of this sea.

Across the entire Red-Haired Pirates,

those who could be compared to him

were few and far between!

"You are…"

Ben Beike Man's eyes narrowed; he held a cigarette between his fingers, staring at Nage Li with solemn and heavy expression.

"Not an ordinary man."

Ye Su Bu and Luo Qi Lu stood on either side of Ben Beike Man, their faces equally wary and solemn as they regarded Nage Li, refusing to show any trace of disrespect.

At this moment,

even the Red-Haired Pirate, captain of the Red-Haired Pirates, began to take notice of this unexpected guest, studying him with keen curiosity.

"This one…"

"Is he Little Lufei's mysterious Master?"

The Red-Haired Pirate was intrigued.

For some reason,

he always felt…

The man before him seemed familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

But because so much time had passed,

he could no longer recall clearly.

Moments later.

Nageli walked through the wary gazes of the crowd until he stood before the red-haired man.

He lifted his head,

gazed at the man before him with his fiery red hair, and smiled with a touch of nostalgia: "I never thought that the little brat who once trembled in the corner would be you."

"Now…"

"you've grown to this level."

"Time truly spares no one!"

Clearly,

Nageli recognized the red-haired man!

"You know me?"

The red-haired man frowned in surprise.

"Of course."

"Back then…"

"when I fought Luo Jie, the red-haired brat trembling in the corner with a little red-nosed brat—wasn't that you?"

Nageli said.

"So it was!"

The red-haired man raised his eyebrows slightly. "You fought the captain back then."

The man who survived a fight with Luo Jie…

even if he suffered a miserable defeat,

still proved how terrifying his strength must have been.

And the Nageli before him was clearly a formidable top-tier powerhouse.

Up close,

the red-haired man could feel it—

the overwhelming pressure emanating from the other's body.
