I'm not just human!

"The starlight scepter enveloped both me and it, and our bodies merged together in this incredible way."

"It was only at such close range that I realized that the crown on its head... was grown out, not worn. This seems to be a unique mark that fish-men possess after becoming rulers, just like the mane of a lion king."

"At the same time as the bodies merged, I also received its memories."

When Xia Fa heard this, he was completely shaken. He never expected that his cousin Hercules had such a thrilling past.

Seeing that the biggest secret about his cousin's relationship with the father of Wanxing was about to be revealed, he couldn't wait to ask:

"and then?"

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars shook his head slightly:

"Then I learned that this fish-man emperor wielding the Starshine Scepter was not a fish-man at all, but... the Father of All Stars in a semi-out-of-control state!"

"According to the memories I received, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars grew up at sea and was initially an adventurer. Before becoming a demigod, he accidentally obtained the 'Gate of Stars,' a supreme-level secret contract, in the ruins of an underwater ruin."

"Then, His seventh covenant, the one that made him a demigod, happened to be the Gate of the Stars, so it was signed, and from then on, His rise was unstoppable, and he rose rapidly until he became a transcendent monarch."

"Because He was an adventurer by origin, it was only after becoming the Pirate Emperor that he strictly forbade his pirates from plundering and harming civilians. In essence, the pirates of the Wanxing Pirate Crew are actually closer to bounty hunters and adventurers."

"But coincidentally, of the nine secret contracts He signed in His life, six of them came from fishmen of various ranks and statuses."

"This even includes that overlord-level secret contract, the Gate of Stars."

"At the same time, He has loved eating the fish-men's bellies and livers since childhood, and even whenever He needs to replenish His extraordinary power, He eats a supernatural feast made from the fish-men's bellies and livers."

"Finally, one day, six years ago, He was seriously injured in a great battle with the Roaring Emperor and could no longer control the extraordinary power within him, teetering on the brink of going out of control."

"Following his instinct for survival, he dived into the sea, but by a twist of fate, he found an ancient lair of fishmen, where he discovered the skeleton of a fishman emperor, which had not decayed at all after ten thousand years, as if it had been cast from gold and iron."

"What happened afterward was also vague in His memory. He only remembered that after He merged with the skeleton of that fish-man emperor, He became a new fish-man emperor."

"Although his injuries have healed, he realized that he was forever in a semi-out-of-control state, and that he could never go back."

"Originally, during the fishman frenzy five years ago, He was exploring another inhabited planet, searching for a way to turn back. At the same time, He only used the Heart Envelope to contact the people of the Myriad Star Pirates to avoid being exposed."

"But, upon learning of the outbreak of the merman frenzy and the impending catastrophe for the Wave Moon Empire, He rushed back to save innocent civilians. There, He encountered the newly born ruler among the mermen, which led to the scenes I witnessed."

"I just didn't expect that when He was seriously injured and dying again, He would choose to merge with me."

"It was during the time He merged with me that the extraordinary talent from our Prometheus family was activated in my bloodline, and I finally understood why He chose me."

Hearing this, Xia Fa was even more surprised:

"What extraordinary talent?"

According to the great-grandfather, Emperor Shalatu, the Gilgamesh family, apart from the extraordinary talent of "Bloodline Divine Healing," seems to have members who are more likely to sign overlord-level secret contracts.

For this reason, the Gilgamesh family is known as the most noble extraordinary family in the entire universe.

Xia Fa understood that he also possessed the extraordinary talent of [Bloodline Divine Healing]. So, if the Prometheus family also had extraordinary talents, could he inherit them as well?

Just then, Locke's cousin, who had been silent all along but wore a wry smile, spoke up:

"That extraordinary talent is called 'Fire Stealer,' one of the three extraordinary talents of our Prometheus family. The more a family member with this extraordinary talent is willing to dedicate themselves to humans or demi-humans, the stronger they will become, and the more stable their spirit will be."

The Father of All Stars nodded:

"Clearly, the former Father of All Stars had contact with other members of our Prometheus family. Therefore, the ever-selfless God took a liking to my talent and chose to merge with me."

Xia Fa asked in surprise:

"So, cousin, you are now... actually half of the former Father of Ten Thousand Stars?"

The Father of All Stars slowly shook his head, a hint of sadness on his face:

"No, after the fusion was successful, it seemed to realize that its spirit might corrupt me as well, so it chose to dissipate its soul and will into the world."

"At the same time, the overlord-level secret contract signed at the boundary between His mental body and Astral body, namely the Gate of Stars, also disappeared."

"I essentially obtained a half-human, half-fish body with the rank of an angel. Fortunately, this body came from the former Father of All Stars, whose contributions to humans and demi-humans on the Ocean of Baron are beyond question."

"Therefore, not only did I not show any signs of losing control, but I was even able to control my body and turn back into a human again thanks to the extraordinary talent of the [Fire Stealer] family."

"But coincidentally, my spiritual intuition immediately guided me to the Gate of Stars, a supreme-level secret contract. In addition, I had already fully understood the eight secret contracts in this body, which means I can sign the Gate of Stars immediately."

"Later, under the identity of the Father of All Stars, I returned to the Stellar, found the Gold Rush Merchant Guild, and secretly spent more than 15 million gold pounds to buy a Gate to the Stars. I successfully signed the agreement and became a transcendent monarch."

A deep sense of emotion suddenly appeared on his resolute and dignified face:

"However, five years have passed. Before the Crimson Agents suddenly launched their attack, I maintained the maritime order that the Father of All Stars had personally established very well for Him. So, you could say that I and the Father of All Stars have become one."

Xia Fa could see that, for Cousin Hercules, inheriting the will of the Father of All Stars, and at least ensuring that everything in the Father of All Stars' territory maintained fairness and justice, had become the most important thing in His life.

"I see, I understand now."

Xia Fa also sighed softly, seemingly moved by the spirit in this past event, especially by the perseverance of the former Father of Ten Thousand Stars.

He raised his head, looked at his cousin, and his tone became more resolute than ever before:

"In that case, whether it's the Roaring Emperor or the Thousand-Faced Prophet, especially that Crimson Executor, they all..."

"...must be eliminated."

Chapter 263 The berserk Star Silver Dragon form instantly kills the Roaring Emperor; Xia Fa's overwhelming power! (Part 1)

The Baron Ocean.

On an unnamed island

Clearly, this is not only an unnamed island, but also an uninhabited island, pitifully small in size, only a few acres in size.

A sea turtle, about the size of a palm, is hatching from a pristine white egg on the island. It struggles to crawl on the fine sand with its forelimbs, leaving a crooked trail on the golden beach.

A suede boot fell from the sky, landing right next to the little sea turtle, but it didn't step on it at all; instead, it easily stepped over it.

It turned out to be a pirate, wearing a black leather jacket with a skull pattern, and also a black turban with a skull pattern.

If no one says so, some people might mistakenly think he's a rock musician.

But anyone who has ever been to the Baron Ocean would shudder at the sight of the skull pattern surrounded by a ring of spikes and keep their distance.

Because this is the symbol of the Bone Spike Pirates under the Roaring Emperor!

"Is this the place?"

The pirate stopped and stomped his suede boots hard on the sand beneath his feet, as if trying to determine whether the sand was actually soil or hollow.

"Yes, the three of us can just go in later. As soon as we encounter the Roaring Emperor, we'll attack him immediately."

Another pirate approached. He was short and scrawny, like a skinny monkey, with a sinister expression on his face. He continued:

"Speaking of which, the 'Dancing King Mask' is really useful. It not only changes the appearance, but also imitates the expression and temperament so well."

Upon hearing this, the third pirate approached, arms crossed, his face displaying a cold and aloof expression completely at odds with his fierce appearance, like a princess untouched by worldly concerns.

"Although it's impossible for any word of what we're saying to get out of the Dance King Mask's territory, let's be cautious out of caution."

This pirate not only had a cold expression, but also spoke in a cold and aloof manner. If it weren't for his hoarse voice, it might have sounded quite pleasant.

These three are none other than Xia Fa, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, and Princess Shark, who infiltrated this nameless island disguised as pirates under the Bone Spike Pirate Gang!

As for Locke, since he only had the rank of an angel, he naturally couldn't participate in this operation; he was only responsible for guarding the rear.

Using the incomplete "Dancing King Mask" from the mysterious treasure belonging to Princess Shark, the three of them transformed into incredibly realistic appearances and, based on clues previously gathered by Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark, arrived at this nameless island.

Of course, the three men's appearances were not created randomly; they were all based on the observations of three pirates who had been coming and going from this island over the past few days.

Those three pirates were all notorious for their evil deeds and countless murders; after all, they were under the command of the Roaring Emperor.

Therefore, before they could be disguised as their own, the Father of All Stars intervened and imprisoned them in a certain subspace.

The reason for not killing them was to prevent the Roaring Emperor from discovering the truth. If the Roaring Emperor could be killed this time, the three pirates would naturally not survive either.

After observing the surroundings briefly, Xia Fa saw only a vast, boundless blue sea in all directions. Without saying anything, he stepped aside.

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars stepped forward and walked to the upper left corner of this nameless island.

He stomped three times in the upper left corner, then pulled a star chart from his neck and placed it on the footprint.

The surrounding sunlight dimmed for a moment, and then it all converged on the star chart.

The next moment, wisps of transparent spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared on the star chart, enveloping the three of them.

Whether it was Xia Fa, the Father of Ten Thousand Stars, or the Princess of the Sharks, they all stood still, letting themselves be enveloped.

call out!

In the blink of an eye, the three figures vanished simultaneously.

……

The damp underwater tunnel, however, was quite hot due to its proximity to the earth's veins and the magma baking through the rocks.

It was hot and humid, which created a damp heat. As soon as Xia Fa and the other two appeared, they were covered in sticky sweat.

The Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark were alright, after all, they were rulers and their life levels were high enough, so they immediately shut down all their sweat glands.

Xia Fa, however, was only a wolf-level superhuman and naturally could not do this. Fortunately, he had signed the high-level secret contract of the Ether Source, and immediately used the secret contract ability of ice element to cover his skin with a layer of ice shell.

Feeling the coolness spreading through his body, Xia Fa breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged a glance with the two, and walked toward the end of the underwater tunnel, which was only wide enough for one person to pass through.

At the end, the dazzling flames could be faintly seen, and the humid air was filled with a faint smell of blood and decay.

Before coming here, Xia Fa had spoken with the Father of Ten Thousand Stars and Princess Shark, and learned that in order to avoid being discovered by the Roaring Emperor, the two of them had never actually infiltrated this lair and did not know what the Roaring Emperor was busy with.

To be precise, it is unclear what exactly the Roaring Emperor is doing for the Crimson Proxy, especially since it requires Him, the extraordinary monarch who signed fifteen secret contracts, to personally oversee it.

However, the answer will be revealed soon.

The further you go in, the hotter the underwater tunnel becomes, and the stronger the smell of blood and decay in the air.

Xia Fa sniffed the air and suddenly had a sense of déjà vu.

The stench of decay, the stench of blood, seems... just like a grotesque, burnt corpse!

For some reason, he thought of when he went to the Sun Volcano, where the Chainsaw Pirates specialized in catching the supernatural.

Could there be some connection between the two?

Of course, this doesn't mean that Captain Chainsaw Baker is related to the Roaring Emperor or even the Crimson Agent. Rather, it means that among the clients Captain Chainsaw Baker sold the Strange creatures to after capturing them might be them.

Just then, Xia Fa had already reached the tunnel entrance.

In that instant, a fat pirate with a bare chest and belly charged straight at him!
