I guarded Impel Down for a hundred years in the pirate world.

Figo looked at the thin, slightly crooked-mouthed middle-aged swordsman in front of him and asked, "There's no swordsmanship rank marking. Are you from another planet?"

The middle-aged swordsman bowed and said, "Lord Gaston Figo, the Celestial Phenomenon Sword who defeated the three great sword saints of Sword Star, is he not from Sword Star? We all come from the Eastern Universe Sea, that's enough. I originally came to challenge the First Sword Saint, Dimis, but now that the title of First Sword Saint has changed hands, it is only natural that I have to challenge you."

The swordsmen and alien tourists waiting for the airship all looked on in surprise upon hearing this.

They initially thought Figo, dressed in a white swordsman's robe, had an extraordinary demeanor and must be a strong person, but they never expected that Figo was the very person behind the Celestial Phenomenon Sword that had been making headlines recently.

The local swordsmen had the most complicated feelings.

It was no secret that Demis had trained demons to create the Sword Spirit Blade. With the three Sword Spirit Blades and the subsequent attack by the demons, this was an indisputable fact. The Sword God Mountain, which had collapsed most of its length, was irrefutable evidence of the fierce battle.

However, their feelings towards Gaston Figo, the Celestial Swordsman who killed Demis, were quite conflicted. On one hand, due to swordsmen's admiration for the strong, they respected Figo's swordsmanship.

On the other hand, the three great sword saints were, after all, the pride of Sword Star, and the masters and grandmasters of countless swordsmen. With their deaths, the reputation of Sword Star as the holy land of swordsmanship in the Eastern Universe Sea was somewhat undeserved, and thus some people blamed Figo.

During Figo's stay of half a month, many swordsmen came to him to witness the splendor of the Celestial Phenomenon Sword, but those were all swordsmen of the seventh rank or above. These weaker swordsmen had no way of appreciating Figo's swordsmanship.

Unexpectedly, the opportunity presented itself.

They all expected Figo to respond to the alien swordsman's challenge, but to their surprise, Figo did not leave the waiting room with the other party, nor did he draw his sword. He simply extended his right hand and said, "Come on."

The middle-aged swordsman was taken aback: "Sir..."

"Sorry, you're not worthy of my drawing my sword."

The middle-aged swordsman's face flushed red instantly. He angrily drew his sword, but as the surrounding crowd nervously retreated and watched, Figo snatched the sword away with his bare hands in a flash, leaving the swordsman bewildered.

"Grip the knife firmly first, then take on the challenge."

Figo smiled and handed the knife back.

The middle-aged swordsman snapped out of his daze, absentmindedly performed a sword salute, and, too ashamed to stay any longer, hurriedly left the waiting room with his head down.

The surrounding area erupted in a cacophony of noise!

"As expected of the newly crowned number one sword saint, his swordsmanship and power control have reached the pinnacle!"

"He must have anticipated all of his opponent's intentions and found the opponent's weak point to successfully disarm him."

"I wonder how exquisite his swordsmanship is... Without the strength of a sword saint, I probably won't have the chance to see it, what a pity..."

Hearing such comments, Figo sat back down in his chair with a sigh and said, "There are so many swordsmen with exceptional eyesight."

Ana couldn't help but tremble.

This thing is truly shameless.

……

Gaston Figo, the newly crowned number one swordsman of the Eastern Universe Sea, has left Sword Star, but his legend continues.

Gradually, the news was carried to other planets by interstellar travelers, and even interstellar newspapers published it.

The number one swordsman of the Eastern Universe Sea has changed!

On Lasu Star, which is very close to Qinghai, the Qinghai Naval Branch, or perhaps the Qinghai Novice Adventurer Guidance Base, saw a rear admiral quickly rush into the top floor with a newspaper in hand.

"Vice Admiral Garp! Vice Admiral Garp! There's news about the King of the World!"

Snapped--

The bubbles on Garp's nose burst as he awoke from his slumber. He picked up the newspaper and muttered, "Isn't it normal for old man Figo to make a name for himself? He's been away from Qinghai for a month already... Let me see, uh, first... Sword Saint?"

Karp rubbed his eyes.

Oh, I'm still half asleep.

……

Zou Star.

Barbani, the gorilla who had recently been promoted to Duke of the Mink Tribe by lighting the lamp, was also staring blankly at the newspaper, exchanging glances with Piggy.

"Same name?"

"No, could it be... could it be that he lit a second lamp? Was it swordsmanship?"

"No, who did he beat?"

"The three great sword saints of Jian Fanxing?!"

It took a while for Baba Ni to realize the seriousness of the problem. That was one of the top powers in the Eastern Universe Sea, almost as strong as Zou Star!

If they could defeat Demis, wouldn't that mean that the world king of Qinghai is not much weaker than their fur tribe's king? We know that the people of Qinghai will change the landscape of the Eastern Universe, but it's only been 16 years!

……

A small planet.

A promising young man is running frantically through the heavy snow, his expression one of despair, while several men and women are chasing after him, each carrying various weapons.

"Quick! Over here!"

"Don't let him get away!"

"That slut Sakura actually secretly fathered a child with a demon!"

"Quick! Quick! If the King finds out, we're all doomed!"

Just as the boy could no longer hold on and stumbled into the snow, nearly dying, the wind and snow suddenly intensified, and an unusual gale swept in, blowing away the people chasing the boy!

The boy, who had been waiting to die with his eyes closed, looked up blankly and saw a man wearing a cloak with strange markings on his profile. He said warily, "You..."

"Monkey D. Dragon".

The dragon extended its hand to him and asked, "What is your name, half-demon boy?"

"You...you're not going to kill me?"

Why would I kill you?

"My father is a demon."

"So what?" Long retorted.

The boy was helped up in a daze. The dragon's smile was not warm, but when his relatives and friends discovered that he was a half-demon and all wanted to kill him, it warmed the boy's heart instantly.

'Ancestor Figo, you've started venturing into space too. I don't know why you're the First Sword Saint... but having freed slaves from the Celestial Dragons, you must dislike both the Celestial Dragons and the Demon Race. So do I.'

The half-demons, ostracized by demons and other races alike, will be key to unleashing a revolution in the cosmos!

The dragon looked at the boy and thought to itself.

……

In the Central Universe, news doesn't travel that fast, and the powerful figures there don't really care much about the mere number one sword saint of the Eastern Universe Sea.

However, Beelzebub, the progenitor of demons, took notice of this news because of the death of Tirria and the appearance of Ana on the Star of Swords, and even decided to do something about it.

"Ato, go and kill the human swordsman Gaston Figo, but spare Ana's life."

"Yes, Father!"

As for the Celestial Dragons, only one person mentioned it to the Ninth Celestial Dragon General—the number one swordsman of the Eastern Universe has changed.

All I got in return was a dismissive response.

"understood."

Chapter 164 The Hunter's Guild and the Demon Suppression Prison

With long, wavy, crimson hair and thick, dark blue armor, the girl had delicate features, but her expression was as cold and icy as if she could freeze anyone. She uttered two words in a low voice.

"Change clothes!"

The dazzling light and shadow spread out, and in just two seconds, the armor on the girl's body disappeared, replaced by a pale yellow dress that outlined her graceful figure. Her expression also softened, revealing an extremely sweet smile.

She held a small jar in both hands, the jar printed with a colorful illustration of the outfit she was currently wearing, and said softly, "Jeru Outfits, allowing you to change your style anytime, anywhere."

……

Standing on the street, Figo stared at the screen twice, unsure of how to react to the advertisement.

Ana, standing next to her, chuckled slightly: "People from small towns, have they never seen an advertisement before?"

“I’ve never seen it before,” Figo said.

By this time, he and Ana had been on a long journey through space for more than ten days, making two transfers, and had arrived at their target planet, Peploton.

This is one of the earliest and most developed planets in the Eastern Universe Ocean to connect with the starry sky.

Unlike planets like Jianfanxing, which maintain a relatively ancient style due to their sword dojos and planetary characteristics, this place is filled with a technological atmosphere.

Small airships traversed the skies, and various colorful screens lit up the streets. If it weren't for the more European architectural style, with domed buildings and even castles everywhere, Figo would probably have felt more at home.

“You could actually consider ordering one of these portable dressing devices,” Ana said. “Forget about when you’re transforming into a giant, but for that state of complete physical liberation, you could have a few outfits on hand.”

"Is it expensive?" Figo asked.

"Ordinary clothes aren't expensive; Tillea's bounty is enough for you to afford a castle. But I suggest you choose a few combat suits; each one costs around a million star coins."

"Combat suits..." Figo thought of Germa 66, "...that can enhance strength?"

“Hmm, but it’s not very useful to us. Maybe a combat suit that can shoot flames can help you roast something in the wild? The invisibility function can only be used to bully the weak.” Ana shook her head: “It’s mainly good-looking, comfortable, and durable.”

During her two-week stay on Jianfanxing, Ana had the opportunity to eat Figo's barbecue, which clearly left a deep impression on her, partly due to Figo's astonishing appetite.

"Okay, I'll go check it out later."

The two stopped to talk in front of the shop and were obviously noticed. A sweet-looking angel girl flapped her wings and came up to Figo... handing him a flyer.

The various discounts of 10% and 5% made Figo want to laugh even more. Ana next to him shook her head: "Let's go, let's go to the Hunter's Guild first."

After enduring a barrage of advertisements, the two hurried to a castle... a small building nearby, in front of an iron gate.

"That castle is the Hunter's Guild, built by Tianlong Star. It's a loose organization used to hunt down space pirates with bounties, and it's present on almost every large planet in the sky. Of course, there are also bounties for demons there, and pirate hunters occasionally encounter and hunt them, but they don't specifically target demons like we demon hunters do," Ana explained.

"To become a demon hunter and exchange information with each other, you actually need to register in that castle. If you go to the demon hunter guild alone in the future, you will have to complete the registration first. But you don't need to register for now since you're with me."

Facing a distinctive gray Den Den Mushi diagonally above her, she said, "Forget everything."

The iron gate opened automatically.

Figo chuckled, "I thought you had enough permissions to bring strangers in. Is it really okay to make the Den Den Mushi forget that I'm not registered?"

“It doesn’t matter. There are plenty of rule-breakers among demon hunters.” Ana shook her head.

The Demon Hunter Guild was deserted. As they walked deeper into the area, they only encountered one burly man from the Three-Eyed Clan with three eyes. He gave Figo and Ana a wary look, said nothing, and left without saying anything.
