Chapter 66

This heavy, powerful strike, even though it was a sneak attack, directly smashed half of the Fear Demon King's body, and Varimathras was instantly brought to the brink of death by Kaido.

He had indeed considered that coming to the foreign realm might be dangerous, but he never expected it to come so quickly, so suddenly.

However, even with only half his body left, Varimathras still planned to turn into a bat to escape; at this moment, Luode and the old orc had already begun setting up the mage's demon-capturing magic formation on the left and right.

"Imprisoning Demon Formation!" The old orc and Luode acted together, directly casting an Imprisoning Demon Formation to prevent a certain Fear Demon King from escaping.

A black barrier directly sealed off the surrounding space, even using some of Luode's spatial energy, completely sealing off all the surrounding space.

The remaining few also took out their weapons and assumed a stance, encircling the Fear Demon King Arimathas.

"No! Why, why is this? My lady queen, why are you doing this to me?" The Fear Demon King, whose half body had been directly smashed by Kaido, lay on the ground and said.

Varimathras is now miserable to the extreme; most of his body has been smashed away by Kaido's spiked club, but he is still alive—needless to say, this Fear Demon King's vitality is truly formidable.

But Kaido had no intention of wasting words with him; besides, Luode had already said that the first thing upon arriving in the foreign realm is to kill it, and he can just carry that out.

He raised his club, and Kaido smashed down again on the Fear Demon King's head.

Boom! Like a balloon exploding, the Fear Demon King's whole body was pulverized by Kaido's hammer, and his head also directly burst open.

The scene was disgusting to the extreme; the Imprisoning Demon Formation jointly cast by the old orc and Luode also took effect, leaving the Fear Demon King's soul not even a chance to flee and distort the void, and it was directly captured by the two.

Last time, Barnazal managed to escape with his life only because Sylvanas had no decent mage nearby, but now Luode and the old orc are here, and his soul cannot possibly flee.

"Success, we have captured this Fear Demon King's soul." The old orc picked up a special magic-sealing bottle; inside, the distorted soul was wildly howling, appearing exactly like a certain Fear Demon King.

Capturing a Fear Demon King's soul is indeed not easy; he and Luode had prepared for a long time beforehand, which is why they dared to strike suddenly.

After all, if this time his soul were to escape there, the twisted void would learn of Luode's news.

This Varimathras must absolutely not be allowed to run.

"What should we do with this Fear Demon King's soul?" the old orc asked.

"He must have a lot of information about the Burning Legion in his mouth. First lock him up, and after we're busy we'll properly deal with him." Luode said.

The Fear Demon King race is highly skilled in shadow realm necromancy; this must be exploited to extract all the information from his mouth.

The old orc nodded, reinforced the sealing container once more, and then handed over the container holding the Fear Demon King's soul to Luode.

After securing the Fear Demon King's soul, Kaido directly transformed into his Azure Dragon form and began flying in the direction indicated by the old orc.

"All the way here, it's nothing but white bones—how many people died on this road? What kind of people could be so cruel?!" Yamato looked down at the endless white bones and couldn't help but ask.

Even his incredibly brutal father probably wouldn't do something like this? "This road was once called the Path of Glory, but in fact it is the disgrace of our orc clan and the beginning of the orcs' corruption." The old orc sighed and slowly began to recount the events of the past.

"So this is a road paved with the skeletons of the Draenei and other Draenor wise beings?" Sylvanas asked.

Compared to that butcher Arthas, it's about the same! The orcs back then were truly brutal.

"Yeah! Back then, the entire old horde's orcs had already been corrupted by demonic power; we fell into a frenzied bloodlust, even starting to slaughter each other within the clan.

Until the new warchief Thrall saved us all, and then Hellfire Cry, Grommash completed his redemption by slaying the Abyssal Demon Mannoroth in Demon Slayer Valley." Reterson said.

"What a unique race; I really like the orcs—you're all born warriors." Kaido said.

These orcs are practically the ultimate war machines; I really wish they could join my pirate crew! Damn it!

"Thanks for your praise; our orc clan has finally freed itself from the influence of demon blood, and I'm also very curious about the wondrous phenomenon in your world that allows you to normally merge with the blood of the Abyssal Lord." Reterson said.

He thought Kaido was praising their orc clan, believing the orcs are naturally the finest warriors.

"According to information sent back by the blood elves, your orc population still has many survivors living on this world, with many orcs dwelling on the Nagrand Plains, uncontaminated by fel energy and still having brown skin." Luode said.

"Of course, this isn't information passed from the blood elves; it's something he himself knows. "Really? If that's the case, maybe I can go meet them!" Reterson said.

The orc clan may have found its footing in Azeroth and built a new tribe, but its overall population still lags far behind that of humans.

If the orcs of the shattered Delanuo world could go over there, it would undoubtedly greatly strengthen the orc clan's power, enhancing the tribe's strength.

Luode said, 'This time probably won't work; we only have one day, so we must finish the task quickly, but you will have an opportunity soon.'

Now it's the late 60s; the Dark Portal will soon open, at which time Azeroth will once again connect with the Delanuo world.

'I understand, let's act quickly!' said the old orc Leitesen.

Soon, the group flew to a massive fortress tens of meters high, a fortress entirely crimson-red, its architectural style being traditional orcish.

On the walls, large numbers of orcs clad in armor and wielding sharp axes were patrolling.

However, these orcs looked somewhat strange; their skin was a blood-red hue, their bodies covered in many bone spurs, their faces extremely ferocious, and they were extraordinarily tall.

Their eyes emitted a blood-red light, making them appear extremely frenzied.

These orcs were fel orcs corrupted and infected by the secondary demon blood.

'Are these also orcs? You aren't supposed to have green skin, so why have they turned red?' Kaido asked, looking at the distant orc horde.

'Ancestral spirits, above! These orcs, they, they are all corrupted by demons; this is the trait of being completely demonized.' Leitesen said with a grim expression.

At the end of the Second War, Geluomashi Diyupuxiao was again tempted by the Abyssal Lord Mannuonusi, again leading part of the Warsong clan's members, and again drank this demonic blood.

Their skin turned this dark red, bone spurs began to grow all over their bodies, and they became bloodthirsty and extraordinarily savage.

Later, according to years of research by their warlocks, this phenomenon was found to be the beginning of demonization, just like the races that joined the Burning Legion.

Afterwards it took great effort, and only with the help of the human mage Jianna did Geluomashi Diyupuxiao return to normal.

But those who followed him in becoming demonized, the Warsong clan members, basically had no chance to revert; they were ultimately all slaughtered.

'So these orcs, is it because they again used the blood of the Abyssal Lord, thus becoming like this?' Xierwanasi asked.

'Yes, these fel orcs are beyond saving; they have been completely corrupted, already beginning to develop toward the demonic direction. If possible, let us purify them! Let them be freed.' said the old orc.

These fel orcs reborn by fel energy have no possibility of treatment whatsoever; thus the best way is to let them find rest.

No wonder, no wonder, after the tribe and the alliance attacked, the tribe would strike first. They assaulted the Hellfire Citadel walls, personally slaughtering the fel orcs inside; these fel orcs are a disgrace to the orc clan.

However! They might perhaps have a greater use for themselves, after all these guys were created by Ilidan, and what Ilidan is currently doing is fighting the Burning Legion.

Taking them to the world of One Piece might yield unexpected gains.

Luode said, 'In another world there is something called an artificial devil fruit; after eating it, one can change one's bodily characteristics, and under the special rules of that world, your fellow orcs might possibly master the fel energy and revert to their former state.'

Kaido, flying in midair, heard this and his eyes lit up too. This is indeed a good reason—let's lure these fel orcs back to the Beasts Pirates.

'Is this, is this feasible? They, they have already been completely corrupted.' Leitesen said.

「Whether it works or not, we have to try; if it doesn't work, we'll think of another way. 」Luode said.

「All right! Then let's give it a try. 」Lei Tesen said.

「If we want to take them to another world, we must build a dark portal, so for now we need a place to settle them. 」Luode finished speaking and looked toward Xi Erwanasi.

「We can first settle them near the Gloom City; then you must make sure they don't cause trouble. 」The Banshee Queen rolled her eyes and said.
