A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

What shocked her was that, in the instant she was slightly stunned by the accidental collision, the seemingly panicked young man opposite her suddenly launched an attack!

"I've got her!" a low shout rang out.

With lightning speed, he caught Mary's knife-wielding arm with a precise backhand!

Immediately afterwards, a strange force that Mary could hardly resist suddenly came, forcefully suppressing Mary and causing her to lose her balance, and she fell heavily onto the deck with a "bang"!

"How...how could this be..." Mary's mind was in chaos, a mixture of immense humiliation and horror. "I actually lost to such a pretty boy in terms of strength!"

She began to struggle desperately, kicking her legs wildly, trying to overturn him.

However, to prevent her from getting up, the man pressed down on her with his entire body, using his heavy weight and terrifying strength far beyond her expectations to pin her firmly to the cold deck, rendering her unable to move.

"Go away! Get away from me! I...! Uh—"

Mary was in utter turmoil, filled with shame and indignation. The other person's tight, controlling posture, to onlookers, looked exactly like she had been raped… She dared not think any further!

For a moment, Mary was so focused on twisting her body and trying to break free from this shameful restraint that she didn't notice the powerful punch that the other party was quietly gathering and silently aimed at the side of her head!

The young man's fist struck her vitals with pinpoint accuracy. Mary didn't even have time to utter a complete cry of pain before everything went black, and she instantly lost consciousness.

Then, the young man swiftly and skillfully took out a rope and quickly tied the unconscious female pirate up securely.

The group of pirates watched quietly as their leader finished doing all this, without anyone stepping forward to lend a hand.

It's not that they're lazy or indifferent, but rather that they know perfectly well that this rule is ingrained in their very being.

The one-eyed leader had sternly warned everyone: once a "prey" of this caliber, especially a beauty of such stunning looks, is captured by the leader himself, no one is allowed to touch her unless the leader explicitly gives permission.

No one dared to test the limits of this ban.

At that moment, only One-Eyed Dragon immediately put on a smile, jogged over, and respectfully asked in a low voice, "Boss, what are you planning to do with this hostage?"

Indeed, this young man was Wang Chong himself. He had originally wanted to toy with this interesting opponent who had offered himself up a little longer, but he hadn't expected the opportunity to come so quickly, so he had no choice but to seize the opportunity and take him down swiftly.

"Hehe..." Wang Chong looked with satisfaction at the sensible one-eyed man and his subordinates who were so well-behaved.

He patted the one-eyed man on the shoulder, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. "I'll personally take her to the interrogation room. Don't worry about the rest. Just let her lie there."

His gaze swept over the bound Mary, then his tone shifted, carrying an undeniable command, "Go! Capture the remaining female pirate on the ship as well!"

"Yes!" The one-eyed man's face immediately lit up with ecstasy as he answered loudly. He then turned around, waved to his henchmen behind him, and roared, "Brothers! Follow the boss!!!"

Thus, a group of pirates, their morale high, followed Wang Chong and excitedly surged toward their next target.

The process of capturing Anne Bernie was almost a carbon copy of Mary's ordeal. Whether the two sisters were truly in sync or Wang Chong's "charm" was simply irresistible, they both unanimously made eliminating Wang Chong their top priority.

What's even more ridiculous is that both of them seemed to subconsciously hold back because of Wang Chong's outstanding looks, and restrained their deadly ruthlessness when attacking.

Anne Bernie, the female pirate known for her muskets, even inexplicably abandoned her ranged advantage and, as if possessed, chose to engage in close combat, intending to capture Wang Chong alive.

The ultimate result of this bizarre strategy was, of course, that she soon followed in her companions' footsteps.

Looking at Annie, who was tightly bound and also unconscious, Wang Chong glanced down at his wrinkled clothes and touched his face. He asked the one-eyed man beside him, half-teasingly and half-jokingly, "...Does my face really look that easy to bully?"

Upon hearing this, One-Eyed Dragon shuddered, nearly breaking out in a cold sweat. His boss's question... was truly terrifying.

To say they're "easy to bully" would be to question the strength of one's own boss. What if the boss gets angry and wants to "test their mettle" himself?

Chapter 567 Giving You Luda Travel~

But if you say he's "not easy to bully," wouldn't that be tantamount to denying the boss's handsome face? That would be pure suicide!

Fortunately, One-Eyed Dragon was a seasoned veteran at sea, and after years of navigating the seas, he had developed a knack for survival.

His single eye spun rapidly like a windmill a few times, and his face immediately plastered with the most sincere and obsequious smile. He bent over at almost a ninety-degree angle and hurriedly replied in an exaggerated, almost lamenting tone:

"Boss! Boss, what are you saying! I think those two women have been at sea for too long, surrounded by ugly and shabby people. They've never seen someone as handsome and dashing as you, Boss!"

"Look, I was so captivated by you that I lost my mind and willingly surrendered, not even bothering to struggle!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Chong was slightly taken aback at first, but then burst into laughter at the one-eyed dragon's comical appearance and exaggerated flattery.

Although he didn't express his opinion directly, judging from his relaxed expression, he was clearly quite pleased with this explanation.

"Alright, alright," Wang Chong stopped laughing, waved his hand, and lifted Annie up a little higher on his shoulder. "I need to go and put these two 'distinguished guests' where they should rest. The rest of the mess is up to you."

His tone returned to its usual calm and unquestionable tone: "You are responsible for clearing out the remaining rabble on the ship, don't let a single one escape. As for the Servant Heroes, without my leadership, you don't need to get involved."

After saying that, he carried Annie on his back and strode towards the other end of the deck.

"Yes, boss! Don't worry! I'll clean it up spotlessly!"

One-Eyed Dragon straightened his back and patted his chest to assure them. The pirates behind him, their eyes gleaming with the excitement of raiders, drew their weapons and howled as they charged towards other corners, ready to completely wipe out the battlefield.

Wang Chong quickly returned to the deck of his flagship. He first bent down and deftly lifted Mary Reed, who had been lying unconscious on the deck, onto his shoulders, carrying these two priceless "trophies" on either side.

He then strode steadily and swiftly toward the cabin.

As for the battle situation on the vast sea outside the ship's side, it was now clear. Wang Chong didn't need to worry about it too much. Besides, he was currently dealing with his spoils and would soon return to clean up the remaining mess.

……

The perspective shifts to the Servant battlefield. Elizabeth Bathory, with her exceptional combat talent, managed to withstand a fierce onslaught from Eric and quickly adapted to his attack patterns.

She seized a precious opening in the attack, successfully dodging her opponent's near-fatal Noble Phantasm. In the end, Elizabeth single-handedly pierced Eric's heart with her spear, ending his life.

With Eric's defeat, the number of troops besieging Blackbeard Teach naturally increased.

Now, Artemis's divine arrows, Sajou's love songs, Circe's magic, and Elizabeth's sharp spearhead form an impenetrable attack network from four directions.

Although Teach used the Dark-Dark Fruit's power to create a gravitational field for defense, he ultimately couldn't withstand the combined attack of four top-tier Servants in terms of raw strength.

Even more fatally, as his Servants fell one after another in defeat, the Servant number bonus brought by his "Queen Anne's Revenge" was also rapidly diminishing.

Teach could feel his power draining away, and his once impenetrable defensive perimeter was becoming increasingly fragile.

"Damn it, how could this happen?! This isn't how the script should have gone!"

Blackbeard Teach roared in frustration as he futilely swung his fists, trying to fend off the overwhelming onslaught of attacks. However, defeat was inevitable.

"Shouldn't the real script be that I successfully sacrificed the goddess, obtained the power I deserved, unified the entire sea world, and then created a heavenly kingdom where only lolis exist? God! Why did you abandon me!"

With a sharp pain, Teach looked at his right hand, which had been pierced by the light arrow, and couldn't help but wail in grief.

"You pervert! Hurry up and drown in your perverted dreams!"

Elizabeth brandished her spear, intending to kill the disgusting pervert in front of her with a single blow.

"Hmph, you want to kill me? Dream on! You really think that's all I'm capable of!"

Teach managed to gather a gravity ball, which pulled Elizabeth's gun tip away, and then Teach landed back on the deck of his own ship.

Elizabeth, taking advantage of the situation, jumped back onto the mast of her own ship, ready to charge again at any moment.

At this moment, however, the ship beneath Teach showed a high-energy reaction, with a large amount of spiritual energy gathering on the ship.

"My Noble Phantasm, Blackbeard's, is this Queen Anne's Revenge! Let me show you its true power!"

"Queen Anne's Revenge!!"

With a shout of fury from Teach, dozens of cannons suddenly sprang up on the Queen Anne's Revenge, all pointed at Elizabeth and her entourage.

"Watch out! This is a reaction only seen with military-level Noble Phantasms. Protect the ship, don't let it damage our vessel!"

Circe immediately raised a loud warning. Almost as soon as she finished speaking, her hands moved rapidly, and runes that shimmered with mysterious light emerged from her palms, quickly weaving into a semi-transparent purple magic barrier, which stood ready to block the front of her own ship.

Upon hearing Circe's urgent reminder, Ayaka Sajo reacted just as swiftly.

She gracefully traced mysterious lines with her hands in front of her, rapidly chanting incantations. Pure and powerful magic gathered and wove at her fingertips, instantly constructing another magical barrier radiating pure white light, echoing Circe's barrier and together forming a solid defensive line.

Artemis's eyes were sharp as an eagle's as she steadily drew her divine bow, which radiated a halo-like light. The longbow hummed, brimming with immense divine power.

Elizabeth gripped her spear tightly, the tip pointing towards Blackbeard, her muscles taut, ready to meet any attack at any moment.

"boom--!!!"

The deafening roar of cannon fire was deafening, as dozens of cannons simultaneously spewed out scorching flames! Everyone was highly focused, their inner strength surging, preparing to withstand this terrifying attack from the Noble Phantasm.

However, what happened next left everyone who was on high alert completely dumbfounded, their faces filled with disbelief and astonishment.

"Here's your Luda game! (Get out of here!)"

Instead of lethal projectiles or beams of light, the roaring cannons spewed out strange flames, and then the entire "Queen Anne's Revenge" was suddenly pushed backward as if by an invisible giant hand.

Then, the Queen Anne's Revenge burst into astonishing speed, and with the recoil from the cannon fire, the ship shot off like an arrow in the opposite direction from everyone else!

No one expected that Blackbeard Teach, who had just been all bravado and ready to fight to the death, had no intention of winning with his Noble Phantasm. Instead, he chose to slip away without hesitation the moment everyone was on full defensive!

"Hahaha!! Do you really think I'm stupid?!"

Watching his ship speed away from the battlefield, leaving the enemy far behind, Teach, standing on the ship's side, couldn't help but put his hands on his hips and laugh triumphantly:

"Since we can't win, we should run away as fast as we can! As the saying goes, as long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn! Hahahaha!"

Amidst his maniacal laughter, Blackbeard Teach swiftly lunged towards the ship's helm, gripping the wheel tightly with both hands, his eyes fixed on the location of Artemis and the others behind him, especially the goddess wielding the divine bow.

"The only thing we need to guard against next is Artemis's long-range sniping! Watch me dodge!"

Teach confidently maneuvered the ship, attempting to draw irregular routes on the sea to evade the powerful Noble Phantasm attack that was theoretically the only thing that could still threaten his escape.

However, to Teach's slight confusion and surprise, no matter how intently he stared in that direction, the expected, iconic flash of divine light that would illuminate the sea failed to appear.

"Hmm? Strange..." Teach muttered to himself, "Did they give up the chase? Or did that goddess run out of magic? Ha! Looks like my luck hasn't run out yet!"

A hint of smug satisfaction had just crept onto the corners of his mouth, about to turn into laughter again.

But just then, a strange man's slightly mocking voice rang in his ears without warning, easily shattering the silence of the sea breeze:

"What? Is it strange that the other side hasn't launched an attack yet?"

"Huh!? Who is it!" The unfamiliar voice exploded in his ears like a thunderclap, and Teach's hair stood on end, instantly putting him into a state of highest alert!

Teach twisted his body abruptly, his eyes scanning every corner and shadow of the cabin like searchlights, his muscles tense, but he didn't find a single person!

"You sneaky scoundrel! If you're a hero, come out openly! What kind of skill is it to hide like this!"

Teach was both shocked and furious. While roaring and trying to provoke the other party to show himself, he secretly gathered the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit and covered it with his clothes, ready to deal with any surprise attack at any time.

"Up there, you idiot." The voice rang out again, carrying a distinct hint of mockery.

"What?!" Teach's alarm bells rang in his mind, and almost instinctively following the direction of the sound, he suddenly looked up!

What came into his single eye's view was a figure descending from the sky! The figure swooped down from the top of the tall mast, moving so fast that it left only a blurry afterimage on his retina!

By the time Teach's brain finally processed the image, a deadly threat was already looming. His entire field of vision was instantly filled with a gigantic fist flashing with blinding white light!

Chapter 568 Devouring Blackbeard

"Airquake!"

"boom--!!!"

With a terrifying roar that seemed to tear space itself apart, an unimaginable violent tremor suddenly erupted from the center of that fist!

The sturdy teak rudder that Teach had been standing on just a second ago, along with the large sturdy deck around it, was as if it had been bitten by an invisible behemoth. In an instant, it was crushed, decomposed, and turned into flying wood chips by this violent shock force, completely turning into nothingness!

Teach himself was as if he had been hit hard by an invisible battering sledgehammer. His massive body flew backward like a sack of potatoes, crashing heavily onto the deck in the distance with a loud bang, creating a shocking crater in the thick ship plank!

"Huh?"

The figure that descended from the sky and landed steadily on the deck wreckage—Wang Chong—looked at Teach, who was struggling to get up, and his tone revealed a hint of surprise, but more so a condescending composure and amusement.

"His reaction wasn't slow. It seems he's already grasped the basics of absorbing impact with his own abilities, and even using it to launch himself away and deflect the force... No wonder he's known as 'Blackbeard'?"

His words were completely casual, like a cat playing with a mouse.

"Cough...cough cough..." Teach struggled to cover his bleeding and throbbing head with one hand, while using the other hand to support his body as he staggered out of the pit.

The near-death fear and oppression he experienced just now almost suffocated him! He survived entirely by relying on his instincts honed from years of struggling on the edge of life and death and by giving it his all, thanks to the properties of the Dark-Dark Fruit.

So, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Teach stared intently at the unfathomable man before him and asked in a hoarse voice:

"Your Excellency... just who are you?... I, Blackbeard Teach, have never... offended someone like you, have I?"

His mind raced, desperately trying to recall when he had ever offended such a formidable figure. Someone possessing such terrifying power could not be an ordinary person; they must be a great figure who had left a splendid mark on history. Yet, he had absolutely no recollection of it!

"Me? You might not have heard of my name, but as for my identity..." Wang Chong chuckled, casually pointing in the direction Teach had been wary of, and slowly said:

"The girls you besieged on that ship over there... are all my Servants. Do you understand?"

Teach's pupils suddenly contracted, as if a thunderbolt had exploded in his mind, and the horror in his heart swept over him like a tsunami!

What shocked him most was that the man before him possessed such terrifying strength, and was not a Servant, but a Master!? This completely overturned his understanding of conventional combat power!

Secondly, now that the other party has so openly revealed their identity, the root of everything is clear, and I was truly not wronged to take that punch.

"Hahaha……"
