Chapter 329

Each voice instantly filled every corner of the Beronika Kingdom.

The Monu Sect, as the organization that appeared from the start, is the villain's organization, so naturally it does villainous things.

Although this operation carries an element of revenge, 17 since the choice to act has been made, the most profound impression must be left behind; killing just one person alone is completely insufficient.

What follows is a script centered on the Monu Sect and the Akatsuki organization — without some gimmick, how could it possibly work?

And so, now.

Under the power of the Gluttony Dazuisi Sect, anyone who stood in his path was subjected to brutal slaughter.

Gazing at the terrifying sights of figures darting in the distance and fallen soldiers, the Beronika Prince's face also turned deathly pale.

One must realize that he had only just now found the whereabouts of the Phoenix Stone, and had dispatched people to search for it, and then obtained eternal life.

But what on earth is happening now?

How did an otherworld organization suddenly appear?

Could they have learned of the Phoenix Stone's news?

That's not right!

The news of the Phoenix Stone is known only to their royal family — how did those otherworldly people learn of it?

The Beronika Prince had originally intended to celebrate tonight the news of finding the Phoenix Stone, preparing to welcome the arrival of eternal life.

But judging from the current situation, can he himself even live until tomorrow?

"No, I must flee at once—"

The Beronika Prince immediately cried out, fleeing in panic, but just as he was about to escape from Wang Gong, a white figure appeared on the very path he had intended to flee along.

And this figure was none other than the white-haired man who had appeared at the very beginning — the Greed Dazuisi Sect.

"Who are you? You… what on earth do you want?"

Beronika stared, his body trembling, even his voice quivering.

"The order seems a bit off, doesn't it? Before actively asking someone else's name, shouldn't you tell me yours first?"

Hearing these words, Lei Gu revealed a 'pleased' smile as he spoke.

Paying no heed at all to the fact that he himself was the one who had struck first, Lei Gu thought for a moment and then opened his mouth to speak.

"But, telling you doesn't matter either."

"Monu Sect · Greed Dazuisi Sect: Lei Gu · Zheruniyasi"

Monu Sect?

Greed Dazuisi Sect?

Lei Gu · Zheruniyasi.

Although he had no impression of the Greed Dazuisi Sect or of Lei Gu · Zheruniyasi, that did not mean the Beronika Prince was unaware of the Monu Sect's existence.

The Monu Sect has not been active many times, but as the organization that entered the world's view together with the Grand Line from the very start, it is still remembered in many hearts.

Especially when the Monu Sect joined hands with the Akatsuki organization, it shocked the entire Yixijia'er — how could the Beronika Prince possibly not remember?

"I beg you not to kill me, I beg you not to kill me. Whatever you want, I'll give it to you — even this country, I can hand it over to you, including my women. Please, please don't kill me."

Upon learning that Lei Gu was from the Monu Sect, the Beronika Prince did not want to understand anything further; trembling, terrified, he stared at Lei Gu and immediately fell to his knees begging for mercy.

"Relax, I'm not like that long-haired fellow outside — I don't enjoy quarrels and fighting. Could it be that you think—"

Yet in response, Lei Gu shook his head with a look of slight innocence.

"By the command of the Monu my lord, we have come to take the 'Great Will' fragment."

"Hand over the 'Great Will' fragment now, or what awaits you will be the punishment of the Monu Sect."

The Great Will fragment??

Upon hearing Lei Gu's words, the Beronika Prince was completely dumbfounded.

Although he had also heard rumors about the 'Great Will,' in truth the Beronika Prince had only just now heard of the rumors about the Great Will.

From the other party's tone, it seemed the fragment of the 'Great Will' was in his own hands.

But how could that be? If it truly existed, how could the Beronika Prince himself not know?

Seeing that the Beronika Prince had not spoken for a long time, Lei Gu's expression also gradually darkened, and his gaze toward the Beronika Prince grew increasingly unfriendly.

"What? Could it be that you are unwilling to offer up the 'Great Will' fragment for the great Monu? That would be truly Meiyoujia Sect."

Seeing this, the Beronika Prince immediately shuddered all over.

He could sense that although the other's expression was calm, in fact killing intent had already risen.

But…

The Beronika Prince truly did not have that so-called 'Great Will' fragment.

Wait…

Could it be that…

The Beronika Prince suddenly recalled something, and as he spoke he took out half a stone from among his clothing and held it out.

And this stone was precisely the Phoenix Stone.

Beronika is merely a small kingdom; whether in wealth or in magic crystal reserves, it falls far short of other kingdoms. Thinking it over, the only thing that could make these otherworldly people so fixated, apart from the Phoenix Stone, the Beronika Prince could think of nothing else.

And it so happened that they appeared right when he had obtained news of the other half of the Phoenix Stone — so it was very likely that the other party had heard this wind and taken the initiative to Zhaoshang Sect.

Nevertheless, truly handing over the Phoenix Stone still caused the Beronika Prince considerable heartache.

After all, it is eternal life — exchanging it for anything would be hard to remain calm about.

However, despite the heartache, when choosing between the Phoenix Stone and living, the Beronika Prince would certainly choose to keep living.

After all, without even a life left, eternal life and the like are all empty illusions.

And in fact, just as the Beronika Prince had thought, the moment he took out the Phoenix Stone, the Beronika Prince could perceive that Lei Gu's expression had once again returned to a 'pleased' smile, along with a trace of gentle amusement.

However…

Just when Prince Beronika thought Regulus would let him go, he heard Regulus speak again in a flat tone.

"Right, besides that, there's one more thing I need to collect from you."

Hearing this, Prince Beronika hurriedly said,

"What thing? As long as it's something I can do, I can hand it over."

"That would be your life."
