Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

"This is the fist I used to knock you away just now. And then..."

Ossi loosened his fist, spread his five fingers, then put his middle finger and ring finger together and clasped them together with his thumb.

"This is 'Fox'."

Kaido: ""

Chapter 214 Islands and Reefs

"Stupid~"

Looking at the puzzled expression in Kaido's eyes, Osi finally regained some of his sense of superiority in intelligence.

"Don't you understand yet, Boss Kaido?"

"You're the big idiot who can only make fists~"

"Humans didn't evolve five fingers just to make fists for fighting. Otherwise, it would have been much better if they had just evolved into a whole hammer..."

As Osi spoke, the "fox" ears on his hand moved in coordination.

“While the fist can handle most things, it is only one of the thousands of positions the hand can take.”

“When we first used our hands to form a gesture other than a fist, violence was no longer the only law that humans needed to abide by, nor was it the only answer to all problems.”

When people begin to consciously use their hands to make more delicate and complex movements, it also means that people's desires begin to become more delicate and complex.

Just like eating to satisfy the desire for survival, wild animals will directly chew up the prey and swallow it, skin and flesh included, while humans will carefully cook it with their hands...

This is essentially the evolution of desire, the evolution of appetite based on the desire for production.

"And how is your desire to solve every problem through violence any different from a baby crying and yelling for its mother when it's thirsty, hungry, or wet its pants?"

"The so-called..."

Osi wanted to say more, but Kaido on the opposite side was obviously tired of listening.

"enough!"

"Is this what you learned this time?"

"It seems that compared to your actual strength, your talking skills are improving faster!"

"Oh? Don't you want to listen to me? Then I wonder what you, Boss Kaido, have to say?"

Looking at Kaido who was obviously getting anxious, Osi hugged his chest, swung his tail left and right, and a smile of victory appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But Kaido didn't intend to refute the other party verbally. He just exerted force with his wrist and raised the mace that was stuck on the ground again.

"Ossi, I've never been one to preach."

"But since you also said that you are not completely against violence, I will use what I am best at to tell you what I think!"

As he said that, Kaido kicked the ground hard, and the next moment, with a "boom" sound, he rushed towards Ossi like a heavy train.

“Thunder—gossip!”

Bang!

The sharp roar of thunder and lightning shook the air, and a series of sonic booms directly blew away and shattered everything in its path.

"Ah~"

"After all this talk, in the end, you still have to rely on your fists~"

Osi shook his hands helplessly and clenched his fists again.

"Well, after all, as the old saying goes—'Speak the truth to men, and lies to devils.'"

"When it comes to someone like you, Boss Kaido, you still have to speak with your fists."

Bang!

stab-

In an instant, Osi's body entered into a full fighting state again.

"Just in time, your scheme against me isn't over yet! I'm going to give you a good beating today!"

“Thunder—gossip!”

An attack identical to Kaido's signature move came out from Ossi's arm... After a long period of sparring, she had already mastered this move from the inside out.

Clang!

The collision of metal and iron, the biting with domineering force!

The thick black mace and the slender and weak fist were in a stalemate in the air, and the surging domineering aura wrapped around them were confronting each other like two kings who would never meet.

Red and black lightning raged across the sky, and an unprecedented impact swept across the earth.

On this small island, the strange-shaped reef mounds were directly removed from the island by the impact.

……

"There is a flaw!"

Kaido roared.

Due to the difference in size, Kaido's attack was almost vertically pressing down on Osi's head, which caused all the pressure Osi was under to be transmitted to the ground under his feet.

click!

Then at a certain moment, the ground beneath Ossi's feet finally couldn't bear the weight and began to crack.

puff!

Kaido, whose combat instincts were terrifying, seized the opportunity of the center of gravity change in just a split second and spun around and attacked!

Snapped!

Wrapped in an astonishingly dense aura, the jet-black mace gouged out everything in its path as if it were nothing, and directly lifted Osi into the air.

"Hot breath!"

Bang-!

Without any gap, a breath of fire burst out from the mouth of Kaido in dragon form and hit the target in the next second.

……

嘀～

Beep beep

Beep beep beep

It seemed as if there was a sound coming from above, but it was blocked by the distorted atmosphere.

Kaido stared at the red air intently, while gripping the mace in his hand tightly, ready to attack based on the next situation.

In his seeing and hearing color, no, seeing and hearing color is not needed.

An attack of this magnitude would never make Osi lose his fighting power.

So, what would you do in response?

[Let me see it, Ossie.]

The next second, a crimson arm smoothed out the air distorted by the heat wave, and Osi's posture after being hit appeared in front of Kaido.

No injuries.

There wasn't even much embarrassment.

All that was left was the breath of thunder that had already been fully charged.

Beep beep beep beep!

boom!

……

There is a small island to the west of Fenrir Island.

It’s not quite accurate to call it a small island. In fact, it’s just a huge reef, so let’s just call it an island reef.

Because it is essentially a reef, even though the island is covered with a thin layer of mud brought by the sea breeze, it cannot really support creatures larger than lizards.

Those tenacious weeds are the only "permanent residents" of this desolate island.

Over the years, countless ships have passed by the islands and reefs, and countless surveyors have passed by here, but no nautical chart has ever recorded it.

This is a huge rock that is so worthless that even ships will not stop to rest.

This small island reef has been existing quietly, day after day, year after year...

This situation continued until more than half a year ago, when a pair of advanced creatures, one large and one small, broke into this lifeless island reef.

The island finally welcomed the visit of intelligent creatures. The waves crashed against the shore and cheered, and even the weeds swayed more vigorously in the sea breeze.

Then, as the only green on the island, the weeds were blasted into the sky and then fell into the sea.

The islands and reefs are even more desolate.

And in the time that followed, after experiencing time and time again man-made earthquakes, man-made tsunamis, man-made lightning strikes, and man-made fires... the small island reefs - are still strong!

Just like a super-Earth that has awakened its magnetic field power, the islands and reefs have become harder and harder as the earth cracks and splits countless times!

The ground that was easily torn apart in the past now requires the two creatures to transform before it can be shaken!

Yes! Just keep growing like this, keep growing!

Grow to the point where those two creatures can no longer cause any damage, grow to the point where it can once again shelter those weed lizards, grow to the point where it can be recorded in human charts!

Grow! Grow! Damn it! Grow!

Today my little island reef will——

boom! ! !

……

To the west of Fenrir Island, there once stood an island reef that was not recorded on any nautical charts.

But there is no Kansai. Although there are some problems with your nautical chart, someone has helped you fix it using [Superconducting Wave].

Chapter 215 Dangerous Experiment

March 1492 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Although it has been nearly half a year since the last chart modification incident, many people in the pirate group still remember it vividly.

The scene of Kaido, who was covered in wounds, holding the unconscious Osi in his dragon claws and flying back to Fenrir Island staggeringly really scared Burfat and Jin.

Thinking they had fallen into an ambush, the two men immediately sounded the alarm and notified the cadres stationed on various islands to prepare for battle.

However, after La's emergency treatment, when the two men recovered from their injuries, everyone realized that there was no enemy ambush, and it was simply that the two men were just acting recklessly.

Although they were speechless, Burfat and the others dispersed after learning what had happened.

After all, a fight that gets out of hand is not news at all within the Beasts, even if the person involved is the captain himself.

At most, people can only sigh at how fast this kid Osi has progressed. In such a short time, he has grown to the point where he can really hurt Kaido.

But this is not a bad thing. After all, the stronger the cadres are, the stronger the beasts will be.

The potential shown by Ossi, who is only about ten years old, has also given peace of mind to many veterans in the pirate group who are worried that the pirate group will lack successors in the future.

But when everyone felt relieved and prepared to continue with their own business, they found that things were far from over.

In general, Kaido and Osi, two guys who couldn't stop talking when they met before, now seem to have something wrong and don't say a word to each other.

If there is anything, I will ask someone else to convey it.

For example, Kaido: "Jin, go tell that brat, I'm fucking..."

Ossi: "Uncle Burfat, answer that bull-headed gorilla and say I'm a XXX..."

Kaido: "Huh? Jin, go tell her that her idea is bullshit!"

Ossi: "Tsk! Uncle Burfat, tell him I can do whatever I want!"
