Chapter 294

"In that case, I know there's a location deep beneath the ground."

"A great deal of treasure from the Fapingyi Society is buried there. If you need it, I can tell you right now."

From the intelligence reports, Jackal clearly also knew Blackbeard's identity as a pirate, so he instinctively assumed the other had come seeking revenge.

After all, being a pirate, isn't treasure exactly what they yearn for?

But plainly, Jackal had guessed wrong about the purpose of Blackbeard's visit.

If it were the Blackbeard from the original work, he would very likely be interested in this treasure, but unfortunately, as the one controlling Blackbeard, what Lin Cheng truly wanted was strength.

Boom—!

Black mist surged forth, and along with the swing of his fist, it violently shattered the already half-broken wall. Under Jackal's trembling gaze, Blackbeard said coldly.

"Don't waste words with me. I'm not in the mood to waste time on you."

"Tell me everything you know, or I'll make you beg for death and fail to find it."

Hearing Blackbeard's words, Jackal clenched his fists tightly, nearly unable to hold back from attacking.

If not for considering the other's strength, if not for considering the consequences of mission failure, given his temperament he would have charged straight in to fight, and even if he couldn't win, he'd self-detonate.

But... the trouble was, this person was not simply strong—being from another world, he himself was shrouded in mystery.

With no clear understanding of the other's background, striking rashly would be utterly foolish.

After thinking it over, Jackal could only steel himself and say.

"I don't know, and I don't understand what you mean."

Hearing this, Blackbeard gave a cold laugh, his eyes looking at him flatly as he said.

"It seems you're not planning to give me the intelligence. Then, since that's the case, go ahead and die."
