Chapter 1782: Chapter Fifteen: Eddie·Ke

Su Xiao punched through the glass window, and as he jumped out, his fingers hooked like claws, digging into the hotel's outer wall.

Crack, crack...

Stone chips flew as Su Xiao began climbing upward, quickly reaching the dome at the top—the highest point of Datano Island.

Silence appeared in Su Xiao's hand; following the direction provided by Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang, Su Xiao searched through the scope.

Soon, a small black dot appeared in Su Xiao's field of view; after increasing the magnification of the scope, Su Xiao saw a strange bird carrying a person flying into the distance.

Su Xiao pulled the bolt of the Annihilation; capturing a live target was valuable now, so the first shot couldn't knock down the Zoan Fruit user—it had to wound them while preserving some flight ability, so they'd fall from hundreds of meters into the sea, where the Celestial Dragon would likely die from the impact.

Bang!

The bullet left the barrel; in the scope, Su Xiao quickly saw the strange bird stagger, its flight altitude rapidly dropping.

Bang!

Another shot—the kill notification appeared, and the strange bird's corpse fell into the sea.

Ten or so seconds after the strange bird fell into the sea, dozens of figures rushed from the beach area toward the ocean; Am held the line on the beach, swinging his ice battle hammer and scattering them, but they still rushed heedlessly into the sea.

Leaping from the top of the Revelry Hotel, Su Xiao rushed toward the beach area.

Inside the hotel's steam room, Stutsey's corpse suddenly sat up.

"Who ruined my plan?"

Covered in blood, naked, 'Stutsey' stood up—this scene was both terrifying and eerie; after surveying the room, she placed one hand on her chin.

Crack.

Stutsey's neck was twisted, her corpse fell again; Stutsey was also unfortunate—used alive once, then used again after death.

Beach area.

When Su Xiao arrived here, the tourists who had been vacationing here had already fled; sand pits dotted the seaside, within which twisted corpses could still be seen.

Am stood guard here with his ice battle hammer; his method was simple and brutal—ignore enemy attacks and smash downward with a hammer; if one blow didn't kill, he'd add several more.

Waves surged as Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang dragged a middle-aged man ashore.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

This slightly plump middle-aged man, wearing bloated white clothing, coughed loudly; his dark green hair was soaked by seawater and stuck to his face.

After nearly two minutes of dazedness, this man, seeing stars, finally came to; he looked around blankly.

"Who... are you?"

The green-haired Celestial Dragon tried to tidy his hair—typical of "head can break, hairstyle must stay"—but after several attempts, his hair seemed to have a mind of its own.

"You can understand the current situation as a kidnapping."

Su Xiao assessed the green-haired Celestial Dragon struggling with his hair, feeling the man looked somewhat familiar.

"Like this—how much Beli do you want?"

The green-haired Celestial Dragon remained fairly calm, and surprisingly, he didn't shout things like "My father is a Celestial Dragon!"

"Sir, there's something very important I want to clarify first—I'm surnamed Donquixote; if you're a pirate, you should have heard this name."

"Donquixote?"

Su Xiao was even more surprised, involuntarily thinking, Could it be that I've kidnapped a relative of Doflamingo?

"Exactly, Donquixote—so if you want ransom, contacting me and the Warlord Doflamingo is your best option; I can't die yet, at least not now."

The green-haired Celestial Dragon continued using both hands to slick his hair upward, trying to make it stand and restore his original hairstyle.

"No need—look at this."

Su Xiao beckoned to the green-haired Celestial Dragon with a finger; upon hearing, the man looked over, and a fist enlarged in his vision.

Bang!

The green-haired Celestial Dragon's body shuddered, he fell backward rigidly; he came to Datano Island—whether to visit a brothel or handle business—but judging from his calm after being captured, it was likely the latter.

Ten minutes later, on the other side of Datano Island's dock, a luxurious ship slowly sailed toward the sea; after traveling just a few dozen meters, the sailors on board jumped into the sea like dumplings being dropped.

On the nearly ten-meter-wide deck, the green-haired Celestial Dragon lay spread-eagle, several U-shaped iron rings fixing him in place.

Only Su Xiao, Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Am remained on the ship; continuing to operate it was impossible, but that didn't matter—Su Xiao only needed to sail the ship away from Datano Island, then wait for certain people to appear voluntarily.

Not long after Su Xiao last boarded Datano Island, he had vaguely felt eyes watching him—not the gray-haired man from the crew, but another group, who had followed him for a long time without obvious hostility.

After landing this time, Su Xiao again sensed similar gazes.

A faint sound came from beneath the hull; Su Xiao drew the Dragon-Slaying Flash from his waist and stepped toward the Celestial Dragon.

"Please wait—don't kill him yet."

A female voice came from outside the rail; soon, a pale arm grabbed the rail and leapt onto the deck, followed by a very small figure also jumping aboard.

The newcomers were a man and a woman; the woman Su Xiao recognized—Krella of the Revolutionary Army, voluptuous, wearing a pink short dress.

As for the man, he wore a dome hat and a white suit, a dwarf not exceeding one meter in height.

His name was Reiz Marks, a famous gambler who had never experienced the feeling of losing—but divorced twice, his appearance on Datano Island was entirely normal.

Su Xiao looked at the two; the person he'd been waiting for had finally arrived.

"That person..."

As Krella began to speak, Su Xiao raised his hand to interrupt her.

"We'll talk about your matter later—if I'm still alive."

Krella and Reiz Marks exchanged glances, somewhat confused about the current situation.

In the distance, Datano Island gradually disappeared from view.

Bang, bang, bang...

Explosion sounds came; a figure in a white robe, masked, descended from the sky, while not far away on the sea surface, another similarly dressed woman stood—no mask, with a whale shark beneath her feet.

On the deck, the white-robed man removed his face mask, revealing a sharply angular face, with a black mark on his left cheek—the Hoof of the Flying Dragon; if a scar or brand, it would mark him as a Celestial Dragon slave; as for this black mark resembling a tattoo, its meaning was unknown.

With a rip, the man tore off his white robe, revealing a black suit underneath.

This CP0 member is named Eddie C. The CP0 that last pursued Su Xiao was him, and as for the woman standing on the sea surface, she is called Flower.

Su Xiao took the Celestial Dragon out to sea precisely to wait for Eddie C. He was certain that the other party or their subordinates had tracking abilities, which he had verified last time.

Su Xiao lured Eddie C. out not entirely to settle old scores; the man was like a thorn stuck in Su Xiao's throat. Without eliminating this CP0 squad, Su Xiao could not begin his subsequent plans. Once tracked by these people, he would not even dare to think about participating in the Summit War, as dealing with the CP department would already be troublesome enough.

There is a Celestial Dragon on Dartan Island, which was entirely an unexpected delight, as evidenced by Eddie C.'s hurried arrival there.
