I'm not just human!

At this point, the man in the black robe fell silent.

Xia Fa's gaze was serious, but he was somewhat amazed.

It seems that the intelligence network of this Sailfish Bar is quite extensive, even including members of the Shark Pirates as their informants.

Moreover, this intelligence is quite accurate; Captain Hook is most likely near the Solar Volcano.

Sun Volcano is a well-known underwater volcano in the territory of Princess Shark. It is said to contain all kinds of rare treasures and has always been a paradise for adventurers.

Recently, the solar volcano erupted, and adventurers dared not go in. Unexpectedly, Captain Hook took this opportunity to set out.

How can I safely reach the vicinity of the Solar Volcano without attracting attention?

Seeing how effective the intelligence network of the Sailfish Bar was, Xia Fa decided to ask all the questions at once, since he wasn't worried about leaks. The Sailfish Bar had an excellent reputation in this regard; otherwise, James the Golden Rapier wouldn't have recommended it so highly.

Moreover, as long as they weren't inquiring about the five pirate emperors, the informants at the Sailfish Bar would say anything.

"One hundred gold pounds."

Xia Fa casually tossed a hundred-pound gold pound over, and the man in black robes waved his sleeve again, making the gold pound disappear.

"At 3 PM, a pirate ship called the Chainsaw Pirates will be setting off for the Solar Volcano to capture the strange creature. They are recruiting strong and reliable partners, and you can join them."

Capture the eerie?

Xia Fa admitted that his mind went blank for a moment when he heard the news.

The pirates of the Baron Ocean are so wild that they even dare to capture the supernatural.

No, why capture this strange creature if we don't kill it?

What is the use?

It has to be said that his curiosity was immediately piqued.

Chapter 204 Xia Fa's Cultivation Journey!

The waves crashed and pounded against the shore, and sunlight shone through the splashing water, casting rainbow-like rays on the rocks.

A pair of sturdy leather boots stepped onto the rocks.

The owner of the boots was a rather muscular Western cowboy, standing at 1.8 meters tall, with a rugged beard. Just one glance was enough to convey his tough-guy reliability.

It was Xia Fa who had disguised his appearance and identity.

Since he had already disguised his identity, he definitely needed to give himself a new name. After thinking hard for a long time, Xia Fa decided to call himself "Caesar," mainly to make it easier for readers to remember. Xia Fa felt that he was quite thoughtful.

In this world, although there are architectural styles reminiscent of ancient Rome and ancient Greece, such a history does not exist.

Therefore, it's not strange that he calls himself "Caesar," and no one will associate him with Julius Caesar, because there was never a Julius Caesar in the history of this world.

"The Chainsaw Pirates..."

It cost a full 30,100 gold pounds—no, 30,200 gold pounds including drinks—to finally acquire the information. While Xia Fa felt a pang of regret, he also secretly hoped for it.

As long as I can find Captain Hook, I am quite confident that I can kill him. At that time, I will most likely be able to advance the understanding of the Star Gate and sign the "Mysterious Singularity" agreement!

Once the Mysterious Singularity, a supreme-level secret contract, is signed, the Wolf-level transcendent will become the first person in history to simultaneously sign three supreme-level secret contracts...

Finally, I will be able to protect myself on the sea, a sea full of dangers and opportunities!

Even when facing a Crimson Agent, they can manage to exchange a few blows and avoid being constantly on the defensive.

Fungus, insect, eagle, wolf, elephant, whale, demigod, angel, overlord... A wolf-level monster fighting an overlord—just thinking about it is thrilling.

The key now is to find a way to infiltrate the "Chainsaw Pirates" and head to the Sun Volcano in Princess Shark's territory!

I wonder if it's easy to infiltrate the Chainsaw Pirates...

This is a port outside the City of Ten Thousand Stars in the Worm Islands. In the pirate-ruled land, the pirate ships naturally do not need to find a remote bay to dock like they do in Rum City; they can simply dock at the port.

However, this also resulted in the port outside the City of Ten Thousand Stars being almost entirely filled with pirate ships.

The two largest pirate ships were naturally the Star and the Shark.

Both ships are simply spectacular; the Shark is like a mobile megacity on the sea, while the Star is like a ship carrying a small planet.

The difference is that on the deck of the Shark, many pirates are already happily busy preparing to set sail.

On the Stellar, a group of men wearing wooden ghost masks and black suits were enforcing martial law with sniper rifles equipped with scopes.

"It seems the Crimson Agents have already taken over the Stellar..."

Xia Fa withdrew his gaze. Now was not the time to concern himself with this matter. He would wait until he had killed Captain Hook and signed the Mysterious Singularity, a supreme-level secret contract, before returning to properly plan how to proceed.

Turning our gaze to the port, we saw hundreds of pirate ships of all sizes, even mixed with black market merchant vessels.

Various flags fluttered in the wind, each bearing the emblems of numerous different pirate groups... Xia Fa felt a chill run down his spine; finding the Chainsaw Pirates among hundreds of ships seemed a bit difficult.

"We're hiring! We're hiring! Let's cause some trouble at Solar Volcano!"

Suddenly, Xia Fa spotted a young man wearing a sleeveless denim jacket and a baseball cap, holding a sign and struggling to squeeze through the dense crowd at the port, shouting energetically.

A thought crossed his mind, and upon closer inspection, he saw lines of job postings on the sign.

[The Chainsaw Pirates - We cordially invite you to join us in doing great things!]

Our pirate crew primarily engages in capturing supernatural creatures, and secondarily in exploring ruins, ancient sites, and eerie realms. We welcome mercenaries and those who can transport black market goods. We are currently recruiting throughout the Baron Ocean!

[Requirements: At least three years of pirate experience. No experience is necessary, as long as you don't betray your fellow pirates!]

[Detailed Benefits and Compensation]

[Fungus-level Pirate: Monthly salary of 100 gold pounds, three pieces of supernatural creature jerky and two bottles of sanity-stabilizing potion provided monthly]

[Insect-level Pirate: Monthly salary of 500 gold pounds, 10 pieces of supernatural creature jerky and 5 bottles of sanity-stabilizing potions provided monthly. After serving for 6 months, a regular secret contract will be provided free of charge.]

[Eagle-class pirate: Monthly salary of one thousand gold pounds, twenty pieces of supernatural creature jerky, and ten bottles of sanity-stabilizing potions. After serving for six months, the captain can contribute half of the cost to help purchase a high-level secret contract.]

[Wolf-level pirate: Monthly salary of three thousand gold pounds...]

[Elephant-class pirates...]

[Whale-level...]

[Demigod-level Pirate: You'll be the first mate if you join us, salary negotiable!]

[Angel-level Pirate: Once you're here, you're the captain! Our Captain Chainsaw Baker will be your first mate!]

[Dominator-level Pirate: Haha, just kidding! Surely no Dominator would actually want to join our pirate crew? If so, we'd all be happy to be your underlings!]

Xia Fa glanced at the whole thing and found it quite interesting.

Pirates used all sorts of methods to recruit people, but very few of them wrote down the compensation and benefits so clearly.

Could it be that Captain Chainsaw Baker ran a company before he became a pirate?

Without hesitation, Xia Fa walked straight over.

Upon seeing this, the rather burly young man wearing a baseball cap immediately stepped forward and came to greet him.

"Hey bro, wanna join our Chainsaw Pirate Crew? The benefits are all listed, take a look, you'll be satisfied!"

Before arriving at the port, Xia Fa had already canceled the ability of the suit treasure to conceal his rank and aura, so as to prevent anyone from discovering his identity through this.

After all, if he, as Xia Fa, and as Caesar, could both conceal their rank and aura, it would be hard to guarantee that someone with ulterior motives wouldn't make a connection and discover something.

As the saying goes, "better safe than sorry," and after experiencing the Wanxing Pirate Crew's pirate conference, Xia Fa has come to understand the meaning of this saying even more deeply.

"What are you going to do at the Solar Volcano? If it's to go on an adventure inside the Solar Volcano, then forget it."

Xia Fa spoke, his voice sounding quite steady and strong.

It's a pity I didn't have a cigar on hand, otherwise, it would have been even more stylish to have one in my mouth.

The young man in the baseball cap smiled and said:

"Of course we can't go into the Solar Volcano. To put it bluntly, is that something pirates below the level of demigods like us can enter? The reason we're going to the vicinity of the Solar Volcano this time is to—"

He suddenly leaned closer and whispered in Xia Fa's ear, nuzzling against it and breathing hot air into it.

"—Catch the weird."

Xia Fa looked quite surprised, raising an eyebrow:

"Why are you grabbing this thing?"

Although he was asking a question in return, he did not use a single word related to "weird".

Seeing this, the young man in the baseball cap nodded secretly, acknowledging Xia Fa's caution and composure, and smiled:

"I don't know what we'll do with it, but it'll be very valuable. Don't worry, we have a special treasure, so there won't be any problems. As long as we handle it well, we're especially not afraid of it getting out of control."

As he spoke, he looked Xia Fa up and down, his tone carrying a hint of seduction:

"Hey bro, wanna come? I bet you're already Eagle-class, that's enough to make a living at sea."

Xia Fa pretended to consider it for a moment:

"Are you sure everything is okay?"

The young man in the baseball cap said rather boldly:

"You can board the ship first, and if you feel something is wrong, you can disembark at any time. Our captain will even provide you with a small wooden boat, provided that you pay a breach of contract fee, which is equivalent to one month's salary."

Xia Fa then pretended to be relieved:

"Alright, where is our ship?"

The young man in the baseball cap was overjoyed to see him agree. He held up the sign with one hand, flipped the other hand over, took out a brooch, and handed it to Xia Fa.

Immediately, he pointed to the three o'clock position of the port.

"See that black flag with the yellow and black chainsaw pattern on it? Wear this brooch and go over there."

After the young man in the baseball cap finished speaking, he patted Xia Fa on the shoulder:

"Good luck, if you pull off this job, you can at least live a carefree life for a year or two! By the way, my name is Asherma, what's yours?"

"Caesar."

Xia Fa threw out the name without saying anything more, then turned and walked towards the chainsaw pirate ship.

Strangely enough, he had been looking around the harbor but couldn't find the ship anywhere, but the young man in the baseball cap named Asher pointed at it and spotted it immediately.

Upon reaching the shore, Xia Fa first put on the brooch around her neck. It was a chainsaw-shaped brooch with alternating yellow and black stripes, quite exquisite.
