"Thoth, I remember I should have done you a favor. Are you sure you want to risk your life against me?"

Hisoka's eyes darted away, and Thoth's face darkened. Suddenly, a scream rang out, and not far away, navigator Marba was seen being punched in the face by the third mate and falling to the ground.

Then he was straddled and punched repeatedly in the face, blood splattering, teeth falling out, and he cried out in pain and begged for mercy.

That navigator is doomed.

Thoth withdrew his gaze, looked at Hisoka with a cold smile: "I remember I already compensated you with all my assets?"

Without saying a word, Thoth stomped his foot on the ground and rushed close. A cold light swept across his face, and Hisoka gritted his teeth and quickly swung his sword to fight back.

A series of crisp, clanging metallic sounds rang out as the light of the Thoth sword flashed like a curtain.

Hisoka quickly fell into a slump, as the continuous, condensed power emanating from the Thoth sword caused his arms to gradually feel numb.

Suddenly, Thoth skillfully parried the sword that was slashing down at him, and Hisoka's center was opened.

Immediately afterwards, a loud thud was heard as a kick landed hard on his chest. Hisoka gagged and immediately bent over, collapsing to his knees.

Hisoka looked up in alarm, but in the blink of an eye, a sharp sword tip appeared in front of his neck.

Hisoka swallowed hard, looking at Thoth with fear in his eyes:

"Spare me...spare my life."

Thoth's eyes flickered, and he said calmly:

"You did help me once before, whether intentionally or unintentionally."

But your malicious intentions are also a fact. If your intentions had succeeded, it would have made me wish I were dead, and I have repaid you with all my wealth.

You've accepted it, so we're even. But I believe my worth exceeds that treasure worth half a million.

This time, I'll spare your life, but the next time we meet, I'll kill you.

Upon hearing this, Hisoka's eyes gleamed with relief, and he nodded repeatedly with excitement:

"Thank you, thank you so much, brother. I will change. I will definitely get rid of that bad habit of mine."

Thoth sheathed his sword and turned to leave.

Norton, who was not far away, saw this scene and his eyes twitched. Is this kid really that kind?

Darwin breathed a slight sigh of relief when he saw that Thoth was not coming to cause him any trouble, and he was already considering retreating.

However, at this moment, Thoth, who had only walked a few meters, stopped and slowly turned around, then came to stand in front of Hisoka, who had just stood up.

Hisoka looked blank. "Is there anything else you need me to do?"

But then, a faint smile slowly crept onto Toth's lips:

"Hisoka, long time no see. I told you, I'd kill you next time I see you."

Hisoka was stunned, his mind blank, but the next moment, before he could react, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and a numb feeling appeared in his throat.

Hisoka clutched his neck, blood gushing out, his eyes wide with fury as he glared at Thoth:

"Heh...heh. You...you lied to me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell backward and landed hard on the deck with a thud, a pool of blood slowly spreading beneath him.

Thoth's gaze was indifferent: "I didn't lie to you. I said I'd fuck you the next time I see you, and I mean I'll fuck you the next time I see you."

But who can say that saying goodbye a few seconds later isn't still goodbye?

At this moment, the remaining people on the deck looked at each other, their faces twitching violently.

They roared in their hearts.

Is this what you call goodbye?!

Damn! This kid is too cunning.

The next time you see me, you'll just turn around, take a couple of steps, and then turn back again.

Hisoka died a terrible death.

Suddenly, Thoth turned to look at Darwin:

"You just said I'm being ungrateful."

Darwin's eyes twitched violently, and he suddenly leaped out, transforming into a lithe honey badger over two meters long. With a whoosh, he smashed through the fence and landed among the crowd at the port.

He stood up abruptly and roared at the hundred or so armed men around him:

"Morgan family members, listen to my command, prepare for battle."

016. The Truth!

Darwin stood before a hundred or so people, his gaze fixed intently on Thoth's figure.

Meanwhile, Thoth noticed that many of the people in the crowd were holding flintlock pistols.

His gaze deepened, and he turned to look at Norton, whose eye twitched. Norton then decisively shouted the order:

"Attention all members of the Norton Pirates! Prepare for battle!"

However, at that moment, Darwin took out a small Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed the number without hesitation. The other end answered quickly, and Darwin spoke directly:

"Father, I need a lot of manpower and weapons support here."

His voice wasn't quiet; it was as if he was deliberately speaking to Thoth so that Thoth could hear.

But at that moment, Nami's shout suddenly came from the sea not far away:

"Thoth!!! We've got the stuff, let's retreat!!!"

Thoth glanced back at the small boat on the sea a hundred meters away. Nami, who had already evacuated through the back door of the cabin, was now holding the oar and waving nervously at him.

Norton turned sharply to look at Thoth, about to speak, but Thoth glanced at him and raised his hand to interrupt:

"Norton, let's part amicably. I hope we never see each other again."

After saying that, he turned around and rushed out to the fence, where he leaped into the sea.

Soon, Thoth leaped out of the water from the side of the small boat, clung to the hull, and climbed onto the boat.

Nami quickly hoisted the sails, took control of the small boat, and, carried by the sea breeze, the boat sped away from the harbor.

Norton stared blankly, his eyes twitching, his mouth agape as he watched the small boat drift away.

Then they turned back to look at Darwin on the harbor, and the two of them looked at each other solemnly.

To fight or not to fight.

It all comes down to a single thought.

……

Swordsmanship proficiency +1.

Thoth closed the light curtain panel.

The battle with Darwin ended abruptly, so I didn't gain any proficiency.

Barbarian Island had become a black dot. Thoth, shirtless and wrung out, sat on the edge of the boat, gazing at the boundless orange-red sea.

Under the orange glow of the evening sunset, this boundless sea appears as if it has been set ablaze, displaying ever-changing, magnificent, and breathtaking scenery.

Seeing this scene, Tote's lips unconsciously curved into a pleased smile.

Nami looked at Thoth, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating. Thoth, finding it amusing, pretended not to see anything. After a while, Nami, feeling a pang of heartache, got up from the opposite side of the ship and went into her cabin. Soon, she came out carrying a long, thin object.

He forced a smile. "Thoth, I've got something good for you. I found it at Norton's place. He hid it quite well, but I bet you'll like it."

As he spoke, he handed the item over. Curious, Thoth reached out and took it, feeling the considerable weight of the item in his hand.

Remove the black cloth cover.

Suddenly, a knight's longsword appeared in his eyes, its dark blue scabbard wrapped with smooth, tanned brown sharkskin.

The sword was drawn. It was about 120 centimeters long and three fingers wide, with a silver-white arc-shaped hilt and a large, lustrous, deep blue gemstone at the center of the end of the hilt.

Its overall appearance is similar to the sword in the stone from a certain anime in my previous life.

The sword was entirely silver-white, without any other colors or mysterious inscriptions. Thoth flicked his finger at the blade, producing a clear and melodious ringing sound.

Holding the hilt, feeling the subtle sharpness of the sword, this was the first time Thoth had ever touched a sword of this caliber.

With his left hand gripping the tip of the sword, Thoth bent it forcefully, feeling the inherent strength and resilience of the blade. Even when he used all his strength to bend it, it only bent slightly.

After you release your grip, it naturally returns to its original position.

"A fine sword."

Thoth spoke with a slight smile, and Nami, her eyes filled with reluctance, immediately retorted with annoyance upon seeing Thoth's cheerful tone:

"Nonsense! Based on my years of experience appraising antiques, this sword is at least a top-quality weapon, with a market value of at least four million Berries."

As he spoke, he pointed to the azure sapphire on the sword hilt, his eyes glued to it:

"Do you know how much a gem of this quality costs? It would start at least at two million Berries."

As Nami spoke, she clutched her chest, her face contorted with a heart-wrenching expression of utter despair. Then, she glared at Thoth, gritting her teeth.

"This sword was specially sealed in a treasure chest by Norton, which shows its value. And I went to great lengths to bring it out for you."

Thoth rubbed his temples, waved his hand to stop him, and said speechlessly:

"Speak plainly, stop beating around the bush."

Nami's expression froze, and she glared fiercely at Thoth. "Have you forgotten something? I'm still poisoned!"

As she spoke, she stretched her little hand out in front of Thoth's eyes, almost shoving it into Thoth's mouth:

"Give me the antidote. I'm going to die, so you can just wait to die at sea!"

Thoth tilted his head, bewildered: "Antidote? What antidote?"

Nami froze, her lips trembling, and her eyes reddening. She said in a trembling voice:

"How could you do this? Are you trying to control me with poison?"

Thoth was speechless and slapped her hand away, "Control you my ass."

There was no poison, so how could there be an antidote? What they gave you were just 30-Berry packets of hard candy.
