In the alliance, the more they attack me, the stronger I become!

"Ahem...So, you mean, as long as I kill you, you will help save me?"

"Yes." Cheng Xiao nodded again.

“…” Trist didn’t know what to say anymore.

Graves, who was also tied up beside him, yelled loudly, "Did you get your head smashed? How are you going to save people if I kill you? With your body?"

After hearing this, Trist felt for the first time that his former partner was still useful.

He felt the same way...but he didn't dare say it out loud, so Graves became his substitute.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Xiao nodded calmly again: "Yes, that's right. My body will save people."

"Did Gangplank smash your head?" Graves laughed. "That's fine, but it would be troublesome if you really saved Drizzt!"

Cheng Xiao didn't bother to pay attention to the stupid thief Graves's ridicule and asked Trist, "This is your last chance. Are you willing to kill me? Or to put it another way, stab me and I'll save you."

“…” Trist remained silent.

He looked past Cheng Xiao and behind him. The Mingyuan, which had endured several rounds of artillery fire, had become dilapidated. Countless pirates were looking at this side nervously - everyone saw the young man's monstrous performance just now, and no one dared to step forward easily.

Although Trist thought this guy was mentally ill, this was indeed his last chance... This fool was his last lifeline.

If the other party ran away, he would have no chance of survival.

Even if they wanted to kill him and let the pirates surround him... at least he had broken free from his restraints and there was a chance of escape.

Although he couldn't swim, and there was no way to escape in this vast ocean...

"I'll count to three. If you haven't made up your mind, forget it." Cheng Xiao said, raising three fingers, "Three, two——"

"Help! I'll help!" Trist quickly responded before the other party's second finger fell.

Although it is immoral to attack a fool, but fools... aren't they just people who can be bullied?

"very good."

Cheng Xiao waved his hand and Trist immediately regained his freedom.

The latter stared blankly at the broken handcuffs on the ground, his face full of disbelief.

Splitting steel with your bare hands...? You must be kidding!

It would be hard for an ordinary person to cut it with a knife, right?

"What are you hiding in your hand? Let me see it?" Graves shouted again. "Also, can you untie me, too?"

Cheng Xiao didn't even glance at Graves, and directly picked up a pirate scimitar from the ground and handed it to Drizzt. "Come on, cut me."

"Oh my god, no!" Graves yelled. "Don't help that bastard! Drizzt is a complete liar! He'll definitely trick you! Let me go and let me do it!"

"...Graves, I have really tolerated you for a long time." Trist took off his boots, hit Graves in the face with a shoe, and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

It was quiet now.

But... he looked at the pirate scimitar in his hand and hesitated to take action.

Although he often cheated in underground casinos and sometimes had conflicts with others...but when it comes to killing people, he has never done it.

I don’t really dare.

Gambling is gambling, cheating is cheating, but killing people is a bit...

"What are you waiting for?" Cheng Xiao frowned. The terrifying pressure instantly made Trist, a mortal, break out in a cold sweat.

After a moment's mental struggle, he gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and swung the knife out.

The expected sound of flesh breaking didn't come... or rather, it was very faint. At the same time, he felt a strong resistance on his wrist.

He opened his eyes and saw that the knife had indeed struck the man's chest, and blood had indeed been drawn, but the wound was only a centimeter or two deep at most, not even penetrating the bone, and in no way could it injure the heart hidden deeper inside...

"Wuwuwu!" Graves struggled frantically and finally spit out the stinky boots in his mouth.

"You loser! Can't you even chop someone? Hey, bro, let me chop you. I guarantee I can cut your neck with one strike!"

"Shut, shut up...!" Trist stuffed the other boot into Graves' mouth, and then looked at the young man in front of him in horror.

He was afraid, but he really didn't hold back just now... He used all his strength, and the scimitar was not fake, but why...

Can’t even cut through bones…?

Drizzt swallowed nervously, becoming more and more convinced that the creature standing in front of him was not human.

Cheng Xiao also sighed helplessly - he felt that he was mentally prepared enough, but he didn't expect that Trist was still weaker than he thought... His strength was almost the same as that of an adult who had not exercised much.

Although this kind of knife wound could break his skin, it would be very difficult to kill him. The speed of such an injury could not even keep up with the speed of self-healing. Even if he stood there and let Drizzt cut him for days and nights, it would be difficult to kill him.

Cheng Xiao looked at Trist, whose face was filled with fear, and then looked at the Doran's Blade at his waist... He was sure that the other party did not have the ability to control this artifact forged by the God of Forge.

There is a high probability that you can't even pick it up.

"Never mind. I'll try to get you some cards."

"What...?" Trist was stunned.

"You're too weak. If I want to die in your hands, I have to let you use your cards." Cheng Xiao shook her head helplessly. "Maybe I'll have to cripple myself first before I can breathe my last... It's really troublesome."

“…” Trist knew very well that he was being looked down upon, but he did not feel any anger at all.

It's like a giant saying an ant is too small... It's an underestimation, but it's also an extremely objective fact.

In front of this monster, he was indeed incredibly weak.

If I have cards in my hand, I might be able to pose a little threat to it...

"Cards...cards...who of you has cards?"

Cheng Xiao didn't think he could find a deck of cards out of thin air, so he simply asked the pirates on the Mingyuan for one.

Unfortunately, everyone was shaking their heads like rattles.

Cheng Xiao didn't quite believe it and immediately stomped her foot hard, causing the entire deck of the Abyss to crack. "You pirates don't usually play cards... that's unacceptable, isn't it?"

"No!" The second-in-command of the Abyss quickly climbed out. "We usually have cards... but everyone knows that Drizzt can use cards to escape, so we destroyed all the cards on the ship when we captured him... I didn't lie to you!"

Upon hearing this, although Cheng Xiao felt dissatisfied, he also believed this statement - these pirates would not risk the entire Mingyuan for a deck of cards or the life of a thief.

"That's really troublesome...Okay."

Cheng Xiao was too lazy to pull it off, so she just dodged and rushed over, grabbed the deputy's collar and lifted him up like a chicken.

"Now, order all ships to land at Bilgewater's North Shore Docks."

"Ah...ah?" The deputy didn't understand.

"Land, and then I'll go buy a deck of cards, understand?" Cheng Xiao continued, "All ships land, understand?"

"But...but..." The deputy couldn't understand the order, but he knew he must not do it.

He pointed a trembling hand at the remaining Noxian warships. "But those Noxians... are blocking us..."

"Don't talk nonsense to me. Everyone can see that those warships that were almost bombed can't stop you." Cheng Xiao was too lazy to talk nonsense.

"Uh... well... I'm not the captain, they won't obey my orders... Captain Gangplank has to give the order himself..."

"Where's Planck?"

"I...I don't know..."

"..." Cheng Xiao was a little annoyed.

He took a deep breath, and for Sarah's sake he did not attack the Abyss directly, but instead jumped directly onto a slightly smaller pirate ship next door.

Then attack everyone with all your might.

Boom——!

After a loud bang, the entire ship broke into pieces, and all the crew members on it fell into the sea. For a while, screams of terror were heard everywhere.

Cheng Xiao looked at this scene and was quite satisfied.

Even without using magic, his brute force was already about this strong... After all, even Sejuani had the ability to shake the glaciers. With the power of two demigods, he could only become stronger.

It was easy for him to dismantle a pirate ship with his bare hands.

Then, Cheng Xiao immediately returned to the Mingyuan, and the stubborn deputy was now kneeling on the ground and trembling.

"Land, or you will all die at sea."

Cheng Xiao issued an ultimatum.

In fact, letting Gangplank's fleet land itself did him no good - if he just wanted to find some cards for Tristram, it would be much faster for him to just jump ashore with Tristram.

This was just to fulfill Sarah's little wish.

He had promised her that he would kill Gangplank in front of the whole city, and after what happened just now...anyone who wasn't a brainless idiot would know that it was impossible to land now.

He encountered this monster before even reaching the shore, and even after reaching the shore, there were still countless people who wanted him dead. How could he possibly resist?

"Whether you give the order directly or use Planck's name, hurry up." Cheng Xiao clenched his fists. The terrifying brute force he had could tear the Abyss under his feet into eighty-eight pieces at any time.

"Anyway, if you don't want to die, land quickly."

"..." The deputy was completely terrified. If he didn't give the order, Cheng Xiao would definitely kill him; if he gave the order without authorization, Gangplank would also kill him. He seemed to be dead anyway.

But just when he was hesitating and didn't know what to do, the deep and loud voice finally sounded:

"Login."

The deputy turned his head in surprise and saw Gangplank stepping onto the broken deck of the Abyss with a gloomy face.

His fierce eyes stared at Cheng Xiao, like a lion ready to hunt its prey at any moment. Cheng Xiao, on the other hand, maintained a calm expression, even revealing a hint of impatience... He didn't take anyone, including Planck, seriously at all.

"A wise choice." Cheng Xiao nodded with a smile.

Planck waved his hand with a gloomy expression, and the pirate ships around him that were watching immediately received the order and began to dock.

Gradually, the entire fleet moved towards the dock, and the Noxian warships without Darius' protection could not stop them at all.

Cheng Xiao was very satisfied, and Sarah, who was secretly observing from a distance, was also confused and satisfied.

Only Planck felt extremely uncomfortable.

In this situation, Cheng Xiao forced him to log in... He knew of course that it was definitely not a good thing, and he was afraid that there would be some danger waiting for him after landing, but he had no choice.

Rather than sinking into the sea, he would rather go ashore and fight for his life.

After all, it’s not like he hasn’t been to the gates of hell before.

He rose step by step to become the Pirate King, but along the way he experienced many life-or-death crises even more desperate than this...

"Don't be afraid, respected Pirate King." Cheng Xiao walked over and patted Gangplank on the shoulder, saying frankly, "I promise you, I will never attack you after landing."

"..." Gangplank was so angry, yet he didn't dare to take action. It looked like his back teeth were about to break. It was obvious that he didn't believe what the other party said.

But Cheng Xiao really didn't intend to do anything, he didn't lie.

Of course, he was too lazy to explain anything and just waited silently for the Pirate King's fleet to dock.

Countless people had gathered on the dock, and the noise of discussion was very noisy. Among them were Planck's followers, admirers, and enemies.

Cheng Xiao only wanted to get Gangplank ashore as quickly as possible according to the agreement with Sarah, and then go about his own business - finding a deck of cards for Trist so that the other party could kill him.

Let’s solve it quickly…

---------------------------------------------

-------------------------

Sarah, holding the telescope, was sometimes irritated, sometimes confused, and sometimes nervous, but in the end her expression was fixed on "surprise".

She saw Gangplank's fleet approaching the dock and about to land.

Although she couldn't understand Cheng Xiao's previous actions...but the ending was good, wasn't it? That was enough, the process didn't matter at all!

Miss Fortune was overjoyed and used the telescope to look at her powerful little brother again.

She even smiled a little like a fangirl.

Suddenly, a strange figure appeared in her field of vision—a woman? Her features were obscured by her windbreaker, but her slender silhouette suggested she was a woman. She seemed to be following Cheng Xiao.

This is nothing...

But Sarah was surprised to find that the figure suddenly disappeared in the next second - yes, [disappeared], like teleporting, not some kind of rapid movement...

She quickly shifted her gaze and observed Cheng Xiao's surroundings for a while.

Then she discovered... that strange figure had teleported in front of Cheng Xiao.
