Pirates' Max Level System

"Who are you?" The eccentric younger brother was startled by Qin Luo's sudden opening of the door and asked angrily. His older brother looked at Qin Luo with a bad face.

"Hush. I'm sent by the Marshal." Qin Luo lowered his voice, made a gesture to whisper, and then continued playfully: "Take your lives."

Before Qin Luo finished speaking, he had already made a move, and two palm knives chopped the brothers' necks respectively. It didn't matter whether the brothers were listening to his explanation or guarding against him.

Qin Luo's move was all about "fast and accurate". The spines of the two brothers' necks were directly broken into pieces. The two brothers could only make a "Yiyaya" sound and soon fell to the ground and took their last breath.

"Rolling eyes." Qin Luo clapped his hands, as if he had done something insignificant. After using two palm knives, he ignored the brothers and rolled his eyes to look for the bodies of Jock and Farus.

"Found it, these are the two." Qin Luo muttered to himself and quickly locked onto the target.

There were three rows of more than ten cold storages in the room. Qin Luo opened the two in the middle, which were the bodies of Jock and Farus, one of his real targets of this trip.

The assassination of the female colonel was merely a means of attracting attention and recruiting more naval officers. The subsequent destruction of Jock and Farus' bodies was the main plan, with the cause of their deaths being indirectly disclosed. These steps were interconnected, ultimately deepening suspicion within the navy.

The fake Liuyun corpse was not placed in the morgue, but was placed somewhere unknown as a trophy.

The navy clearly had ill intentions towards the corpse and planned to use it to do something. If Qin Luo saw it, he would be willing to deal with it. However, since it was hidden, Qin Luo did not intend to make things complicated. Anyway, the living Liuyun would soon appear in front of the navy again, and by then it would just be a corpse set up with an illusion.

"Repulsive Storm."

An invisible, storm-like repulsive force swept over the two corpses. The violent tug reduced the bodies to two piles of bloody and shattered flesh, which then splattered against the walls of the room.

Next to the office of the Navy's No. 1 Marshal, a naval lieutenant was about to go and watch the excitement, but a naval soldier ran out from the corner, stumbled into him, and then fell to the ground.

The lieutenant looked at the fallen soldier, who happened to look up. Wasn't this soldier Qin Luo who had left the morgue? Their eyes met in mid-air, and the light of Qin Luo's Mangekyō Sharingan flashed, and the lieutenant fell into the illusion.

The lieutenant saw a deep wound on the soldier's chest, bleeding profusely. The soldier spat out a mouthful of blood and said to him, "There's something wrong in the morgue. Go find the marshal."

After saying this, the soldier fell to the ground and died.

Normally, the lieutenant wouldn't have dared to bother with such matters, nor would he have dared to see the marshal, much less where he was. But this time, the lieutenant felt something inside him urging him to go see the marshal, and he had a premonition that the marshal was just ahead.

Perhaps because someone had just "died" in front of him, the lieutenant felt strange but still followed his instincts and went to find the marshal.

After the lieutenant left, the dead soldier stood up, without any wounds or blood. Qin Luo patted his clothes and sneered before leaving. He was going to watch the show over at the Warring States.

Kong was walking to the medical room when he heard someone shouting "Marshal" from behind. He turned around and saw a panicked second lieutenant, but he couldn't remember who he was.

"Marshal, there's an accident in the morgue." The second lieutenant didn't expect to actually run into the marshal. As soon as he ran in front of Kong Ganggu, he told him what the dead navy soldiers had said.

"What happened? How could something happen in the morgue? Can you be more specific?" Ganggukong had a bad feeling.

But that was all the lieutenant knew, so he described his experience to Cyborg Kong in full.

Ganggukong narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then instructed a personal guard, "You, follow this lieutenant to find the dead navy soldier. The rest of you, follow me to the morgue first."

Chapter 418: Brain Drama

As soon as Gang Gukong arrived at the door of the morgue, he could smell the blood coming from the half-open door, as well as a rotten smell of spoilage and expiration.

There was no one alive in the morgue; all the staff and guards had died from broken necks, and of course, there was no blood. The strange smell of blood came from the innermost room, the room where Jock and Farooq's bodies lay.

Without even looking, Steel Bone Soong knew that the bodies of Jock and Farus had been destroyed.

"Marshal." A soldier ran in. He was the personal soldier sent by Kong to search for the dead navy soldiers with the lieutenant.

"Didn't find it?" Steel Bone asked his personal guard without knowing what to do.

The guard looked at Gang Gukong in surprise, somewhat taken aback by the Marshal's foresight, and then said, "Yes, as the lieutenant said, we went to look for the deceased marine, but we couldn't find a body or even the blood that the lieutenant mentioned."

"Got it. Go down." Gang Gukong's performance gave the personal guards the impression that the marshal had known this would happen, and he seemed very indifferent to the information reported by the personal guards.

"marshal."

"Is there anything else?" Gang Gukong turned around and glanced at his personal soldiers this time.

The personal guard suppressed his surprise and continued his report: "The lieutenant showed signs of madness after he couldn't find the navy soldier he mentioned. We have him under control. What should I do next? Do I mean to interrogate the lieutenant?"

"There's no need for an interrogation. This lieutenant was probably just a randomly chosen prop, probably under some kind of hypnosis. Ask him about the circumstances of his encounter with the marine and what he looked like. See if we can find any clues."

Gang Gukong waved his hand to signal his personal guards to leave, but immediately stopped them again: "Please take care of that lieutenant. Bring the others to take control of the morgue and search it thoroughly. Do not let anyone else in unless I give you the order."

Finally, after confirming that Carlo Dishaun's body was fine, Cyborg Soong left with the two Deadpools. He wanted to reunite with Sengoku and the others as soon as possible. He had a hunch that the attacker had not left Marine One yet.

At this time, Zhan Guo had just confirmed that the attacker did not fall into the sea, but might be hiding in the crowd.

As many naval commanders were in an uproar, Kong Ganggu arrived and announced loudly behind everyone: "Zhan Guo is right, the attackers are still on this ship."

When the many naval generals who were making a lot of noise at the beginning saw that it was Marshal Cyborg Kong who came, they all shut up and stopped talking. The crowd automatically made way for Cyborg Kong and the two Deadpools to walk to the side of Sengoku and others.

"The attacker infiltrated from the fleet outside. As soon as I received the news, I blocked all exits from Marine One. During this time, no one left the ship except for a few messengers. So the attacker is still on the ship, and if he wants to leave, he must quietly return to your group. A stranger can't hide on Marine One."

Kong Gukong spoke decisively to the generals, indirectly declaring that they were all suspects. Not only Kong Gukong, but even Zhan Guo sensed this. This time, too many naval generals arrived too early.

Although Gang Gukong had issued a notice requesting lieutenant generals to assist in the capture of the attackers, how could these lieutenant generals arrive right after the messenger left? And what about those uninvited major generals? Gang Gukong looked at the sea of ​​major and lieutenant generals below, speechless, as if these people had been notified in advance.

Yes, I was notified in advance. A thought flashed through Cyborg Kong's mind, and he figured it out in an instant.

"What's wrong?" Zhan Guo noticed that Marshal Ganggu Kong's face changed slightly, as if he had thought of something bad.

"Just on my way here, something happened in the morgue?"

"Something happened in the morgue. Could it be those two bodies?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Zhan Guo knew he and his men had been tricked by the attackers. The attackers had been targeting the two corpses from the beginning. The assassination of the female colonel was just a pretext. If they could kill her, they would do it. If they couldn't, it didn't matter. The only goal was to cause a commotion and gather the generals aboard Marine One.

You have to know that although the morgue is not a place with strict security, there are many other departments and navy nearby. It is very difficult to clear the morgue without making any noise. Any noise will attract the siege of the entire Navy No. 1, and then there will be no escape.

But just now, it was different. The attackers had staged a dramatic attack and escape, sending the entirety of Marine One into a state of turmoil. In the clamor, even the slightest noise from the morgue was drowned out by the clamor of the crowd. Finally, they slipped back into the crowd of generals, pretending to be unaware of anything, and left Marine One.

"Well, this attacker really has a good plan. What clues are hidden on those two bodies that have not been discovered, which made the attacker take the risk to destroy them." Zhan Guo cursed in his heart. He felt annoyed that his intelligence was suppressed.

It must be said that the content and plan of Zhan Guo's imagination are very feasible. If Qin Luo did not have the ability of the Overlord of the Sea to move around by water, Qin Luo himself would have believed it.

……

The naval commanders present all had extremely good hearing and could hear the mysterious questions and answers between Kong Gang and Zhan Guo clearly, but they could not understand the meaning at all.

"General Zhan Guo, what happened in the morgue again? If something happened in the morgue, does it mean that the attacker is not among us? We have never left since we arrived." A major general in the crowd asked, and his tone was filled with helplessness as if he was being wronged. If you didn't know better, you would really think that the major general did it unintentionally.

"Yeah, and what about those two corpses? I think the marshal and the admiral may have hidden something from us." When no one expected it, Kizaru, who had been silent and had little presence, stood up and took over the words of the major general.

Judging from Kizaru's expression, he doesn't seem to be unaware of Jock and Farus, and no one knows who he got the information from. And as for the major-general just now, it seems that his relationship with Kizaru is not that simple.

Anyone who wasn't stupid would have known that Kizaru had something else in mind. Sengoku knew that if he didn't explain things clearly today, these naval commanders wouldn't cooperate with the subsequent search. He just didn't know if this was also arranged by the attackers, and whether Kizaru and the attackers knew each other.

Sengoku's face was dark and ugly, which made Kizaru feel a little uneasy. Kizaru actually just wanted to take the opportunity to announce that Jock and Farus died from Aokiji Akainu's abilities respectively, to give Aokiji Akainu, who had been suppressing him, a little trouble. He had no other ideas.

Chapter 419: Time is running out

If Kizaru knew that Sengoku had linked him to the attacker, he would probably want to die. Honestly, he just wanted to be naughty and discredit Aokiji and Akainu. That was all he asked.

Fortunately, Zhan Guo only had such a suspicion, and was not sure that Kizaru and the attacker were really in cahoots. At least Kizaru was definitely not the attacker. Just now, Kizaru and the attacker had fought here, and in Zhan Guo's opinion, Kizaru did not let him go.

There's another reason, which might be a little hurtful to say. Sengoku feels that Kizaru does have a motive to cooperate with the attackers, just like he's trying so hard to discredit Aokiji and Akainu now.

But there was one difference. This series of attacks and assassinations, whether it was the assassination of high-ranking generals or the collaboration with sea monsters to slaughter the navy, was no small crime. If discovered, it would lead to a life-and-death struggle with the entire navy. Sengoku believed that Kizaru did not have the courage to participate in these things.

No matter what Sengoku thought, Kizaru's words had already made it clear that there was something fishy in the charnel house. Admiral Sengoku and Marshal Kong were hiding something from the navy, and it was about the attacker.

Previously, these admirals hadn't cared about catching the attackers or getting information about them; they were only concerned about their own safety and whether they would become the attacker's next victim. But now, things were different. They were considered criminal suspects, and some things couldn't be resolved without clarifying them.

Zhan Guo could only scratch his head in frustration at this situation. The gag order was issued by Grand Marshal Kong Kong, and only Grand Marshal Kong Kong could break it. Zhan Guo didn't dare act on his own. His rise to the rank of Admiral of the Navy was a testament not only to his strength, wisdom, and achievements, but also to his political literacy.

Zhan Guo remained silent. He was waiting for Marshal Gang Gu Kong to speak.

The two groups of navy generals and Steel Bone Air War Country just looked at each other, like a tortoise and a turtle.

In the end, it was Marshal Kong who took the initiative to announce to many naval generals the relevant information about the deaths of Jock and Farus, information that he had originally intended to conceal.

Since it can no longer be hidden, there is no point in covering it up completely. Gang Gukong also announced some unimportant death information and clues to see what the generals think.

Most of the generals believed that the murderers of Jock and Farus were not Aokiji and Akainu, but this does not mean that these people will not look at Aokiji and Akainu with strange eyes during the story told by Sora Aoi.

Unlike other generals, Kizaru didn't show any abnormality, on the contrary, he seemed a little happy. On the surface, Kizaru pretended to be furious without a smile, but those who knew him could immediately see the corners of his eyes dancing with joy under his sunglasses.

Kizaru had definitely known this news a long time ago, and Sengoku, who had been observing the naval generals, knew it clearly.

But who did he learn about Kizaru's disappearance from? Was it the guy who wanted to stir up trouble within the navy and profit from it? Kizaru is a clue, and Sengoku plans to find an opportunity to go to Kizaru and get some information.

This series of events can be said to have occurred after news of changes in the navy's top leadership spread. The masterminds behind these events were by no means trying to destroy the navy, but rather to seek the navy's power and authority.

The enemy's ambitions weren't just to become a general, they were also after the position of marshal. Zhan Guo was the first target. He used some underhanded tactics to embarrass him at the celebration banquet. Zhan Guo remembered every detail of this.

The fragmented clues were like scattered puzzle pieces. Zhan Guo knew that the clues were related, but he was helpless.

However, compared with Zhan Guo's sorrow, Kizaru's secret joy, and the surprise of many naval generals, Qin Luo, who was disguised as a naval soldier, was so happy that he could hardly contain himself.

Qin Luo had already used his magic to control the lieutenant to go find Ganggu Kong, and then he went directly to the scene he had just escaped, a full five minutes faster than Ganggu Kong. It was human nature to watch and join in the fun. When Qin Luo arrived, many other naval soldiers and officers from Navy No. 1 were already standing nearby.

Fortunately, Qin Luo chose a place against the wall at that time, otherwise, except looking down at the wall, Qin Luo would have found it difficult to find other ways to hide the twitching smile at the corners of his mouth.

At the beginning, Qin Luo was still struggling with whose mouth to expose the matter between Jock and Farus, but someone unexpectedly showed up and completed all Qin Luo's next task...

"This superficial Marine Kizaru really makes me laugh to death. He is so determined to commit suicide, and he still has that genuine smile. It seems that he is afraid that others will not doubt him." Qin Luo complained in his heart. Just for Kizaru's true nature and ability to stir up trouble today, he will definitely be gentler when he hits him next time.

Kizaru's behavior was an unexpected surprise. Qin Luo's original plan was to find a suitable naval general and use illusion to control him to uncover the hidden secrets of Jock and Farus.

But even if none of these worked, Qin Luo still had a way. Qin Luo calculated that the time was up. Gang Gu Kong must have not expected that he had placed some interesting little gifts in the morgue. In short, there was not much time left for Gang Gu Kong.

Finally, Kong Gang's long speech was abruptly interrupted by a series of explosions. The explosions occurred in a room aboard Marine One. Thick black smoke billowed from the blast site. Kong Gang looked at the direction and distance of the smoke and felt that it resembled the morgue he had just left. His face turned pale.

The explosion was not very powerful. The entire warship just shook a little, but there was no breakage or water ingress.

It's not that Qin Luo is soft-hearted, but he can't hide more explosives and bombs. If he puts too much, the navy will definitely find out. Therefore, this power is already the limit of what a morgue can hide.

Speaking of which, the time bomb that served as the main detonator was something Qin Luo accidentally found on several empty naval warships. It was a special personal collection of a deceased colonel.

Using the remains of the navy to blow up the remains of the navy, this operation is exciting just thinking about it. Qin Luo wanted to tell this news to Ganggu Kong and Zhan Guo and others. He wondered if they would be so angry that they would commit suicide on the spot.

"This is a provocation, a naked provocation. I don't care where you are hiding now. Once I catch you, I will make you live a life worse than death." After receiving the news that the morgue was completely destroyed, Gang Gukong's eyes filled with anger suddenly opened wide, and his pupils shrank into a small dot ferociously. He punched with his right hand and bent the railing next to him.

Chapter 420: Immortality Reappears

What could make an old man, both a teacher and a father, angrier than losing his disciple? Perhaps it would be losing his disciple's body.

The enraged Marshal Ganggukong was like a mad devil. Not only were the major generals and lieutenant generals so shocked that they dared not say a word, but the onlookers on the side also dispersed instantly.

Afterwards, whether it was the search or the temporary detention, many naval generals cooperated very well, and no one dared to be the first to disobey an angry and crazy old man.

It was announced that the Admiral had summoned all admirals of the rank of Rear Admiral and above to a meeting aboard Marine One. Under the pretext of inspecting internal affairs, Marshal Kong Kong and Admiral Zhan Guo's personal guards went around the various warships, investigating the rooms and daily behavior of the admirals who had gone to the meeting.

The admirals were not in a hurry. They knew that Admiral Kong wouldn't be able to hold them captive for long. Whether or not they found the attackers or the suspects involved, they would be able to return soon.

That night, Marshal Gang Gukong first released a group of confirmed generals to be responsible for night patrols and alerts. The next night, all 19 generals were released.

As for whether the investigation had any results, Qin Luo didn't know nor did he care. He left as soon as the siege of the navy dispersed. Even when the navy finally found an unlucky guy as a scapegoat, Qin Luo was not surprised at all. The navy had always been skilled at this kind of thing.

Before leaving, Qin Luo used illusion to rewrite the memory of the navy soldier he was impersonating. Qin Luo, the attacker, disappeared into thin air just like the navy soldier the lieutenant mentioned, and there was no trace of them anymore.

In the early hours of the night, the Skeleton Demon Fish did not take advantage of the large number of naval officers imprisoned in Marine No. 1. No more than five naval soldiers were killed before they were discovered and repelled.

The Sirens also suffered casualties that night. One group of Sirens strayed too close to the navy fleet, unable to retreat in time, and was captured by Kizaru, who personally intervened. During this resistance, three Sirens used another hidden talent of the Sirens, "Siren's Wail," a mental and sonic attack, but it also had no effect.

Sound cannot outrun light. Yellow Monkey, transformed into light, was so far beyond the reach of the Siren that he could not even be captured. Soon, Yellow Monkey's light-speed kick brought down three more souls.

When the sky was still turning pale, the naval fleet finally emerged from the terrifying fog.

In fact, the fog's atmosphere was not really that wide. It was just that Qin Luo had been using the Overlord of the Sea's ability to control the weather at sea to let the fog follow the navy fleet. After Qin Luo achieved his goal, there was no need to let the fog follow the navy fleet.

However, unlike the high morale of the navy fleet when they first entered the fog, all the naval soldiers were like eggplants hit by frost. All they had was the relief of escaping death and the palpitations of witnessing the disaster.

During those days in the fog, the sailors witnessed sea monsters that others would only see a few times in their lifetime. At least a quarter of them lost their lives forever in the fog.

As the fog disappeared from the sight of the naval fleet, Qin Luo waved his hand and dispelled his control over the fog. Without Qin Luo's control, the fog dissipated quickly, and the overwhelming fog disappeared in an instant.

The remaining sea monsters were only the Skeleton Demon Fish and the Sirens, two timid and cunning creatures. The sea monsters that Qin Luo hated the most had basically died in the previous battles and attacks. Qin Luo also gave up the idea of ​​causing trouble for these sea monsters.

Let these sea monsters return to their own territories. Qin Luo gave the final order and left. Qin Luo had been staying in the navy fleet recently. He hadn't seen Lab for several days. It was time to go back and see Taotu.

The departure of the naval fleet and Qin Luo allowed the sea to return to its normal state. This tranquility was not broken until night fell and a crescent moon hung in the sky.

The sea water began to roll as if it was boiling, and something was rising from the bottom of the sea.

In the hazy moonlight, one could vaguely see the wreckage of ships floating on the surface. If the navy and Qin Luo were here, they would immediately recognize that these were the wreckage of the sunken ghost ships, with teams of undead standing quietly on the wreckage.

These undead, like the ghost ship, were in tatters, some with broken limbs or severed heads beside them. These undead and the wreckage seemed to possess a special magical power; if you looked closely, you could see that both the ghost ship and the undead were actively repairing themselves.

Finally, several black shadows emerged in front of the entire undead fleet. They were the navy warships that were pulled into the sea by the tentacles of the deep-sea devil "Paul" during the battle.
