Snapped!
A familiar loud noise rang out, and instantly a bloody hole appeared in the pirate's head. His body stiffened abruptly, and he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Everyone's face was filled with shock.
Especially the pirates.
The weapon in the girl's hand did resemble a musket, but that thing didn't have the same power and speed.
"What's the panic? She can only fire once! Charge! Capture her first!"
The red-armored warrior acted decisively, mistaking the hidden weapon in the girl's hand for something like a musket. He immediately ordered his men to capture her first and seize the incredibly powerful weapon.
Seeing that things had come to this, the pirates gritted their teeth and charged towards the little girl.
Paimon recalled Lu Sheng's words: "If the enemy dares to fight back, you'd better wipe them out!"
Good! Sweep the hell out!
Faced with the pirates charging aggressively, Paimon pulled the trigger without hesitation, unleashing all the bullets.
The deck suddenly became as lively as during the Lantern Festival, with a constant crackling and popping sound.
In the blink of an eye, the entire pirate fleet was wiped out, leaving everyone stunned.
The pirate, his eyes wide with disbelief, stared mournfully at his leader. "What happened to the rule that we could only fire once?"
Just then, a person suddenly fell from the sky onto the ship.
He looked around at the horrific scene on the deck with a puzzled expression, and finally his gaze fell on the white-haired little girl.
"What happened? I was only gone for a little while, and you made such a commotion?"
Lu Sheng had gone to the sky to scout the range of the fog when he suddenly heard gunshots. Thinking that something had happened to Paimon, he rushed back in a hurry.
The result was that upon landing, there were corpses everywhere.
Lu Sheng thought he had boarded the wrong ship.
"Master... Brother! These people are all big bad guys! They're pirates!"
"Pirates?" Rikuo was incredulous upon hearing Paimon's words. "They still come out to be pirates in this thick fog? Do they have that much professionalism?"
"Huff—huff—" The red-armored warrior's breathing was erratic, still completely blinded by rage. "You killed so many of my brothers! Ughhhhh!! I'll make you all pay for this in blood!!"
"Evil Eye! Full Power!!!"
The samurai unleashed his full potential, his aura became terrifying, and his strength increased by more than one level.
boom!
He shattered the deck with one foot, leaping into the air like a wild beast, exuding ferocity, and his greatsword was engulfed in purple demonic flames.
Wan Ye cried out in alarm, "Get out of the way! He's used the full power of the Evil Eye! Anyone who blocks this strike will die!"
Lu Sheng stood still, looking up at the giant, crimson-like shadow in the sky that swung its incredibly powerful blade at him.
"Trying to look this cool, do you think you're some kind of legendary warrior from the Warring States period?"
A head of bronze and arms of iron!
Ding!
The red-armored warrior's blade struck Rikuo squarely on the head.
A head-on collision often ends with one side completely shattered.
The terrifyingly large katana in the samurai's hand snapped in two with a snap, and the remaining part made his arms go numb and he lost his grip, sending it flying into the sea.
He was instantly jolted awake, and the thought of escaping arose in his mind.
However, without realizing it, his feet were tightly entangled by a strange vine, rendering him unable to move.
Lu Sheng walked up to the samurai and reached out to take the evil eye hanging from his waist.
"Rubbish."
He had no desire to absorb something of that purity. After cursing, he crushed the Evil Eye to pieces right in front of the red-armored warrior.

Inazuma Arc: Chapter 76: The Dramatic Change in Inazuma
Those who yearn for power feel as if they are watching their most beloved woman being kicked and stomped on right in front of them when they see the source of that power being so easily crushed.
Enraged, the red-armored warrior broke free of the blue silver grass and stabbed the wakizashi in the direction of the grass.
Lu Sheng was faster, and struck him in the chest with a palm strike. Instantly, a powerful electric current coursed through his body along with the armor.
A faint aroma of roasting meat wafted from inside the armor. With another burst of strength, Lu Sheng sent the samurai flying backward and crashing into the sea.
Xingqiu was almost dumbfounded, countless images of chivalrous heroes from novels and stories vividly flashing before his eyes.
Although this person looks ordinary, he exudes confidence in every move he makes. He doesn't even dodge when faced with the pirate's full-force attack, but easily breaks through it.
A master! A master among masters!
Ah Xu recognized the person in front of him as the one who carried two bags of sand like they were carrying cotton during the recruitment day, and immediately shouted, "Hey? Aren't you the Iron Ox who's super strong? Wow, you're amazing! Why didn't you come out sooner?"
"Ah Xu! If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"
Xingqiu quickly stopped Axu from speaking again and personally walked up to Lusheng to bow and express his gratitude.
"I am Xingqiu, the second young master of the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. On behalf of the Chamber, I thank Master Tie Niu for saving my life."
After saying that, he turned to Paimon and repeated the same action.
"I must also thank this young heroine for saving my life, Xingqiu. I can never repay such a life-saving grace! Once we return to Liyue, please feel free to make any requests you may have, and the Feiyun Merchant Guild will do its utmost to fulfill them!"
Paimon ran over excitedly, "Really? Can I have lots and lots and lots of slimes?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Sheng gasped and immediately covered her mouth with his hand.
"The kids are just kidding and don't really understand. We don't care much about any reward or anything like that. We'll talk about it later."
Xingqiu's eyes darted left and right, lingering on each of their faces for a moment before he asked curiously, "I just heard this young heroine call you 'brother,' are you really siblings? Why don't you look alike?"
"Oh, her name is Cuihua, and she is my half-sister. My mother is from Inazuma, and we haven't seen each other for many years. With the lifting of the Inazuma isolation order, I wanted to take her back to see my mother, but it's taboo to bring women on a ship at sea, so I had to hide her in the cabin. Please don't take offense, Young Master Xingqiu."
Paimon glanced at Lu Sheng, thinking that his master's ability to talk nonsense was becoming more and more masterful. If a simple and kind girl met such a big liar, wouldn't she be completely fooled?
"I see~" Xingqiu nodded, staring at the strange weapon in Paimon's hand, and said with emotion, "If it weren't for Sister Cuihua and this divine weapon that can easily take a life from a hundred paces away, I would definitely be dead at the hands of pirates today. May I ask what kind of weapon this is? Who made it? How many Mora would it cost to obtain it?"
Paimon immediately put the gun away, shaking his head vigorously, "This isn't for sale!"
Lu Sheng chuckled and explained, "This was obtained by my sister when she encountered an immortal in the mountains. She always carries it with her like a treasure, and she probably won't sell it."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Xingqiu's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Since it involves immortals, it's not surprising, after all, Liyue has artifacts like the Returning Machine, which were designed and improved by immortals.
Given their weapons and skills, these two siblings are most likely disciples of some immortal.
It's best not to inquire too much about matters concerning immortals.
"Everyone, clean the deck and take stock of the damage. Don't touch any of the evil eyes on these pirates! Throw them all into the sea! Ah Xu, take a few men and come with me to the pirate ship. Iron Bull Hero, oh, and Wan Ye Hero, could you come with me to inspect the pirate ship?"
Xingqiu thought that there might still be pirates left on the ship. If they were let go, these people would still come out to do evil in the future. It would be better to eliminate them here and now.
Lu Sheng told Pai Meng to go back first, promising to go with Xing Qiu to the pirates' ship.
The three boarded the pirate ship and began searching around. Soon, Xingqiu found several Inazuma women who had been abused in the cabin below deck.
They were all villagers from a coastal island. The youngest was only twelve years old. Her village was looted, her father was killed, and her mother was raped and then brutally murdered. She was captured and taken to a pirate ship, where she lived a life worse than that of pigs and dogs.
Upon seeing Xingqiu, these women's first reaction was to instinctively hide in a corner.
Upon witnessing this tragic scene, Xingqiu's chivalrous heart burned brightly.
"Inazuma is so incompetent! He allows pirates to run rampant. How are the Inazuma people along the coast supposed to survive? Asahi! Go to the ship and get some clothes for them to wear, then take them all back and appease them properly."
Meanwhile, Manyo and Rikuo discovered several pirates who had stayed behind on the ship.
Before the pirates could react, Manyo's sword had already slashed their necks.
Rikuo squatted down with great interest to examine the corpse and pulled an evil eye from the pirate's waist.
What exactly are the Fools doing? Why didn't they keep the Evil Eye for the rebels to use in their rebellion, but instead gave it to the pirates?
"Brother Tie Niu, come and see!"
Man Ye suddenly shouted in a very serious tone.
Lu Sheng immediately went over and saw that a corner of the cabin was piled with jewels looted by pirates, including gold, silver and jade artifacts, all kinds of dazzling treasures.
But the most eye-catching item among all these jewels must be the box full of evil eyes.
It's obvious that the top layer is empty, and the part that was taken away must be the ones worn by the pirates outside.
It seems their leader is giving this thing as a reward to his subordinates.
"Ok?"
Lu Sheng turned his head and noticed a booklet on the table next to him.
It's not unusual to find anything on a pirate ship, but it's quite strange to find a booklet filled with writing.
He picked up the booklet and opened it; it turned out to be an account book.
Do pirates keep accounts?
Simply unheard of.
Could this be a group of cultured pirates?
Nothing like it.
After carefully examining the ledgers, Lu Sheng discovered something amiss.
After each raid, these pirates would give a portion of their spoils to a man named Kidomaru.
"Oh~ even pirates are resorting to protection money now?"
Lu Sheng thought to himself, "This is what I'm thinking."
Only a more powerful pirate can make a pirate willingly share his spoils.
