Chapter 1283

Underwater, Su Xiao sank slowly. He released the Boundary Breaking Line for about 10 meters, with one end connected to the line wheel on his wrist and the other end wrapped around Perospero's arm.

As Su Xiao sank, Perospero was also dragged toward the underwater by the Boundary Breaking Line.

Perospero's eyes rolled back, and as his body twitched, he spat out a large amount of bubbles from his mouth, his expression extremely painful.

Su Xiao didn't rashly approach Perospero. Devil Fruit ability users would lose their strength in seawater, or rather, every Devil Fruit ability user is a landlubber. No matter how good they are at swimming, once they enter the sea, aside from being able to splash up a large amount of water, they can do nothing. If no one rescues them, they will sink to the seabed like a stone in no more than 10 seconds.

"Glug, glug..."

Perospero twitched in his hands, his trachea and lungs exceptionally painful after choking on seawater.

Even though Perospero was already a fish on the chopping block, Su Xiao still didn't approach the other party. Waiting for the other party to drown and lose consciousness was the safest choice.

Facts proved that after Devil Fruit ability users are dragged into seawater, they are really useless. Perospero, who had originally suppressed Pica, was now like a dead fish.

After waiting for two minutes, Perospero didn't even spit bubbles anymore. His body twitched intermittently. As a great pirate, Perospero's physical fitness was certainly very strong. Even if he drowned for ten minutes, he might not necessarily be drowned to death.

Su Xiao gripped the long blade in his hand tightly and slowly tightened the Boundary Breaking Line.

Sizzle~

As the Boundary Breaking Line contracted, Perospero was dragged toward Su Xiao.

Zing.

A blade light flew out, and a burst of blood exploded from Perospero's throat. Perospero, who had already drowned, suddenly opened his eyes. He intended to cover his throat with his hand, but the side effects of the Devil Fruit caused his whole body to be powerless.

The blood was diluted by the seawater, and a very deep slash mark appeared on Perospero's throat.

Su Xiao accelerated the tightening of the Boundary Breaking Line and slashed forward with the long blade in his hand.

With a slash, the blade edge slashed open the seawater, and the long blade was stained with blood. The blood was quickly diluted by the seawater and eventually diluted.

【You have killed Charlotte Perospero.】

【Charlotte Perospero was the leader of the naval battle area where the Hunter is located.】

【Detected that the Hunter killed him independently.】

【You obtained 1000 Pirate Reputation points.】

【Yes/No to disclose that you have killed Charlotte Perospero. If you disclose this news, your prestige within the pirate faction will be greatly improved.】

【Due to Charlotte Perospero's special identity, you obtained 14.8% of the World's Source (5% bonus for naval battle area leader). You have now obtained a total of 14.8% of the World's Source.】

【Your talent 'Soul Eater' activated, permanently increasing mana by 30 points. Current maximum mana limit is 5456 points.】

【You obtained a Treasure Chest (Legendary).】

【Inside the Legendary Treasure Chest, there is a 50% chance to obtain a Gold-quality item, a 25% chance to obtain a Light Gold set component, a 15% chance to obtain a Gold set component, and a 10% chance to obtain a Legendary item/equipment/skill/gem, etc.】

Because of Perospero's special identity, plus his original strength, Su Xiao actually obtained a Legendary Treasure Chest of medium-to-high quality.

There are four levels of Legendary Treasure Chests. These four levels are not divided by Reincarnation Paradise, but explored by the contractors themselves.

The first level of Legendary Treasure Chest is the easiest to obtain. Of course, this is only relative. Su Xiao once killed the Raikage and obtained a first-level Legendary Treasure Chest. The chance of obtaining a Legendary item or equipment from this level of chest is less than 2%.

The acquisition difficulty of the second-level Legendary Treasure Chest is slightly higher, but the probability of obtaining a Legendary item increases to 5%.

As for the third-level Legendary Treasure Chest, the one Su Xiao obtained now is this, with a full 10% chance to obtain a Legendary item.

And the highest fourth level, Su Xiao also obtained before, which was that Hashirama's Treasure Chest.

The fourth-level Legendary Treasure Chest has a full 30% probability of obtaining a Legendary item. Not only that, it also has a 1% probability of obtaining an item of higher quality.

This information was all purchased by Su Xiao through intelligence channels between adventure groups.

Whether the first three levels of Legendary Treasure Chests can obtain good things depends on fate, while the fourth level of Legendary Treasure Chest is different. Once an item higher than Legendary quality is obtained, one can become rich and famous in a short time. Of course, this probability is very low.

Su Xiao grabbed Perospero's head, tossed this head to Amu, and then swam toward the sea surface.

In this naval battle, the ships of both sides sank, but the enemy's important personnel, Perospero, died in battle, leading to this naval battle being judged as a victory for the Donquixote Family.

Su Xiao could choose to disclose the news that he had killed Perospero. As a benefit, his prestige among pirates would be greatly improved. Perospero was a great pirate himself, so stepping on him to rise would certainly be faster.

The benefits were obvious, and the drawbacks were not small. Perospero was the eldest son of Charlotte Linlin. His death would definitely not be ignored by Charlotte Linlin. The possibility of her coming to find Su Xiao for revenge personally was not high, but it was very likely that she would let her subordinates 'pay extra attention' to Su Xiao.

Su Xiao's choice was to disclose the news of killing Perospero. Although he was very wary of Charlotte Linlin, the possibility of the two meeting was not high. Su Xiao, who could use the Hunter Moment at any time, didn't fear the generals under Charlotte Linlin, which was Charlotte Katakuri. Even if he couldn't beat the other party head-on, Su Xiao could still escape.

Su Xiao quickly surfaced to the sea surface. A large number of wooden boards floated on the surrounding sea surface, and the blazing flames were particularly conspicuous.

If it were the clear sky weather from before, the flames would definitely not be this conspicuous. Su Xiao looked up at the sky, and the sky was already gray.

"What... is that?"

A white 'crystal' with a diameter of half a meter fell from the sky and smashed into the sea surface with a boom, seawater splashing everywhere.

A moment later, that white 'crystal' floated on the sea surface, with wisps of white gas rising.

"Ice block..."

Su Xiao immediately understood what had happened. It was hailing in this sea area.

Do not think that a hailstone with a diameter of half a meter is exaggerated. This is the normal climate of the New World. In some sea areas of the New World, after a storm ends, it is possible for hailstones of this exaggerated size to fall.

Boom, boom, boom...

Hailstones with diameters between 1 and 2 meters fell from the sky. This unpredictable weather is the characteristic of the New World. On some islands in the New World, there are even dozens or even hundreds of climate changes every year. Perhaps it is winter today, and by tomorrow it becomes the rainy season or dry season.

Su Xiao immediately dived into the sea. Being hit by this kind of giant hailstone is definitely not a pleasant experience.

Su Xiao could dive into the sea, but Pica, a dozen meters away, could not. He stared at the sky, his expression very ugly.

The huge hailstones continued to fall. Just as Su Xiao dived into the sea, a hailstone smashed down from above.

Blade light shone, and the hailstone, which was slashed into a dozen pieces, shattered.

Just as Su Xiao slashed the hailstone, he discovered a dozen figures swimming rapidly in the sea not far away. These were a dozen pirates, and they were struggling to drag a person swimming in the sea. That person was exactly Pica.

Pica's appearance at this time was extremely similar to when Perospero was drowning, his mouth wide open, his eyes rolled back, and a large amount of bubbles emerged from his mouth.

Without a ship, no one would resist those hailstones. The deck raft Pica was riding on had already been smashed, and he was forced to hide in the sea.

The weakness of Devil Fruit ability users is really too obvious. Although Pica would not be drowned to death, he was also choked by the seawater until his consciousness was blurred.

Hailstones smashed into the water one by one. Su Xiao stepped on the seawater beneath his feet and swam straight toward the direction where Pica was.

Here, there were only Pica and his dozen subordinates, and Pica himself was choked by the seawater until his consciousness was blurred.

Blade light shone, and a large amount of blood diffused in the seawater.
