The Age of Exploration, don't disturb my cultivation of immortality.

So how exactly did he hurt himself?

In fact,

The reason Li Xiao was able to injure Crocodile in his elemental form was...

It's just because this sword strike was imbued with spiritual power!

In Li Xiao's view,

The elemental transformation used by Logia-type Devil Fruit users.

Essentially, it's a temporary transformation of the body into elements.

It is a type of energy!

Therefore, it is immune to physical attacks.

Because ordinary physical attacks cannot penetrate energy!

A great mage once said—use magic to defeat magic!

Armament Haki can attack users who have transformed into elemental beings.

That's essentially the principle.

Because domineering aura is also a form of energy!

Chapter 52 You Must Pay! (Fourth Update, Seeking Flowers)

The spiritual power that Li Xiao possesses is also a type of energy in the universe.

And it's an even more advanced form of energy!

therefore,

This sword strike, imbued with spiritual power,

Naturally, he could easily cut down Crocodile in his elemental form!

The principle is simple.

But for Crocodile, who knew nothing about spiritual power...

I can't figure it out even if I rack my brains!

Li Xiao, of course, wouldn't kindly answer his questions!

Crocodile covered the wound on his chest with one hand.

With a serious expression, he asked Li Xiao:

"Who are you anyway?"

In response to Crocodile's problem,

Li Xiao shrugged.

replied:

"I'm just an ordinary cultivator!"

Cultivator?

Crocodile searched his memory for a long time,

No relevant information could be found for this unfamiliar term.

After a while,

Crocodile, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty, continued to inquire:

What exactly is your purpose in coming here?

Hearing this,

Li Xiao immediately looked at him with eyes full of pity for someone with intellectual disabilities.

Asked rhetorically:

"Wasn't it your people who brought me here?"

"I was just passing by, so I came in to play a few games to earn some money for my cat's food!"

"Who knew your casino was so petty? You wouldn't even give them enough for cat food, and you're even trying to kill them to cover it up!"

Upon hearing Li Xiao's words,

Crocodile immediately turned to look at Mr. 5, who had lost an arm.

He asked in a deep voice:

"What happened? He only won a few games and you took action? Who gave the order?"

"If winning such a small amount of money means you can't leave Yuyan, who would dare to come back!"

Speaking of this,

Crocodile couldn't help but get angry!

On the one hand, it's for this little bit of Pelé.

Having provoked such a formidable person,

It’s really not worth it!

on the other hand,

Rain Banquet is a key industry he has built.

Baroque Studios derives most of its revenue from this!

And once this behavior becomes frequent...

This will undoubtedly have a huge impact on Yu Yan's business!

Hearing this,

Mr. 5 used his only remaining hand to adjust his broken sunglasses.

He said slowly:

"He won over 400 million peles..."

As soon as this word comes out,

Krocdalen fell silent immediately!

He turned to look at Li Xiao.

He asked expressionlessly:

"Does your cat eat gold?"

Li Xiao stroked his chin.

After thinking for a moment,

He nodded earnestly and said:

"That makes sense!"

"I have a little thieving cat that not only eats gold, but also anything else of value!"

To be precise, she likes to eat Baileys!

Hearing this,

Crocodile's face immediately darkened.

Suppressing his anger, he said in a deep voice:

"Are you kidding me?"

Li Xiao shook his head.

He said slowly:

"Everything I said is true, and I earned those four hundred million Berries through my own abilities!"

"What, are you trying to renege on your debt?"

Saying,

Li Xiao then raised his hand, ready to swing his sword!

see,

Crocodile shouted immediately:

"Wait! Four hundred million Berries, I can give you that! But I have one condition!"

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow and said:

"you say!"

"Join my organization!"
