"You should have noticed it too, right?" After walking for a while in the forest, Mad Eye suddenly spoke to the people behind him. "Even with the 'shackles,' I have already discovered 'those guys' … You can't not know yet."
"Ah, I knew it already." Brother Jue, who was behind Mad Eye, responded in a relaxed tone. "We are still within the range of their 'detection array.' It is only natural that we are being 'monitored' to this extent."
"Then why are you still moving forward so casually?" Mad Eye asked. "Aren't you afraid that the other party will cast another explosive array on you?"
"Heh …" Blackbeard, who was behind him, sneered when he heard this. "Then what do you mean?"
Mad Eye looked back at him. "Of course, we should go into the forest and kill all the guys who are following us."
"Killing them … is not difficult." At this time, Hong Hu, who had not expressed his opinion for a long time, said, "If I want to, I can kill all the stalkers in the surrounding forest in ten seconds." At this point, he changed the topic. "But there is no point in doing that … Because they are no longer a threat to us."
"What do you mean by no threat?" Mad Eye asked suspiciously.
"Isn't it obvious?" Hong Hu replied. "If they wanted to attack us again, they would have done it long ago. But … why are they following us so sneakily? There is only one reason … "
"... I'm afraid that the magic from before is the strongest attack that this group of people can use." Snow took over his teammate's words and explained to Mad Eye. "Maybe … in a short period of time, they can't cast it a second time even if they wanted to. So, in the face of a group of enemies like us who are 'still fine even after taking a big hit,' the only thing they can do now is to follow us in the dark. "
"So what?" Mad Eye continued. "Even if this group of people doesn't have the intention to attack us for the time being, they are still enemies. Even if you are too lazy to kill them, you should at least capture a few of them alive for questioning, right?"
"Hmph …" Blackbeard snorted again. "Well, let's see what Captain Mad Eye's idea is."
Before he finished speaking, Blackbeard slowly raised his arm and raised it horizontally. He opened his palm to his side and clenched it.
In that instant, a muffled groan came from the forest. In the next second, a figure flew out … Like a piece of metal attracted by a giant magnet, he was "sucked" into Blackbeard's palm.
The person who was captured was wearing a gray robe and a hood. Under the hood was a pale, zombie-like face that was as ugly as a beast's.
"Ugh …" After falling into Blackbeard's hand, this person still let out a muffled groan, but he didn't say a single word.
When everyone heard this, they looked over and immediately discovered something — this person's mouth had been sewn shut.
His upper and lower lips were pierced back and forth by a metal thread that was as thick as a shoelace. Even a layman could see how "crude" the suturing technique was.
"Look at the condition of the wound … It must have been stitched up for more than a day or two," Brother Jue muttered when he saw the man.
"Nezru." Blackbeard didn't say much. He called out to his cadre and then threw the "captive" in his hand toward Nezru.
Nezru caught the man easily and pressed him to the ground. Then, he took out a small knife from somewhere on his body. With a speed that even Brother Jue felt was "very fast," he accurately cut off the suture on the captive's mouth without hurting the captive's lips at all.
"If you want to live, answer a few of our questions." Nezru's tone was cold and murderous. Because … he was in a very bad mood at the moment. Nezru's appearance, coupled with the hairstyle of Watermelon Taro, was really a huge file. Perhaps others didn't care much about it, but he cared a lot about it.
"Ah … rara … bu ah … ha …" However, when the captive opened his mouth, another depressing fact was displayed in front of everyone — this guy's tongue had already disappeared.
"That's really cruel …" Even Mr. Volger couldn't help but comment on the scene in front of him.
"Wait a minute … This doesn't seem right." Snow quickly thought of something. "In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, he cut off his subordinate's tongue. This I can understand, but … why sew his mouth shut after cutting off his tongue?"
"Hmm …" Hong Hu muttered. "It's indeed a little superfluous, and … even eating and drinking like this …"
"Ah … ga … ha …" Just as they were talking, the captive suddenly twitched in pain. There was a strange sound coming from his throat that seemed to come from a very far place.
Seeing this strange situation, Mr. Volger, who was very experienced in the underworld, hurried forward and pulled Nezru back a few steps to get him away from the captive.
As expected, when Nezru retreated a few meters, something strange happened.
It was too late to say, but it happened in the blink of an eye! Accompanied by the strange sound that came from nowhere, it was getting louder and louder. The captive's chest also bulged at an extremely exaggerated rate. When it reached a certain extent, it exploded.
Then, in the midst of the exploding blood and broken bones, a dragon's head that was about the size of a rhino's head poked out from the corpse's torso.
Then … it was a long neck, then claws, body, wings, tail …
In the end, a dragon-type beast that was four meters tall and more than nine meters long (from the top of its head to the tip of its tail) crawled out from the corpse of the humanoid creature.
Obviously, it didn't come out from the "body" of the captive. Instead, it used the captive's body as a medium similar to a "door" and crawled out from another space.
By the time the strange beast had fully revealed itself, the captive's body had already been torn into a ragged bag of flesh and blood.
"Oh, I understand now." Facing the monster, Feng Bujue still used a scholarly tone to talk. "Cutting off the tongue is to brand a small triggering magic circle in that guy's mouth, and the suture line on his mouth is a magic material. Once the line is cut, it will lead to …"
"Are you done?" Before Brother Bujue finished his words, Crazy Eye roared and interrupted, "What does that have to do with anything? Didn't you see this … "
Maybe because Crazy Eye shouted loudly, it attracted the monster's attention. After the dragon-type beast laid down, it immediately swung its tail at Crazy Eye.
In the roaring wind, Crazy Eye suddenly turned his head and looked at the incoming dragon tail that was constantly enlarging in his pupils. He was also at a loss for a moment.
Boom!
Just when Crazy Eye thought he was going to die here, Mark Hoof's figure flashed and blocked in front of him. He used his strong body to withstand the attack of the beast's tail.
Chi …
After the collision, Mark Hoof's four hooves actually dragged out four deep hoof marks on the ground. His face also became a little solemn.
"Ugh …" After catching his breath, Mark Hoof squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "No … I can't take it."
After that, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell sideways.
"Ah! Big brother! "Mark Hoof's neck saw this and roared angrily. He grabbed the machete at his waist and rushed toward the monster.
"Be careful!" On the other side, Mr. Volger shouted as he went forward to help. "This is' Wild Dragon '!"
Hearing this, Nezruh also followed without saying a word. For a moment, the three officers engaged in a fierce battle with the "Wild Dragon". The surrounding dense forest, soil, and rocks … began to collapse and collapse at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Wild Dragon … I haven't seen one for many years …" At this time, Blackbeard had already activated his "black spherical barrier" and retreated to a safe distance. He was still muttering, "When 'Idiante' was still 'here,' there were quite a few of them in his territory. So they haven't gone extinct yet."
"Did you just say … 'Idiante'?" A few seconds later, Brother Jue who was carrying Crazy Eye also came near Blackbeard and asked, "Are you referring to … the God of Foolishness, Idiante?"
Blackbeard's reaction was very calm. "Who else could it be?"
Hong Hu, who came to Devil's Maw Island with Brother Jue last time, undoubtedly remembered this name. He also asked, "Captain … you seem to … know Idiante?"
"Everyone knows them," Blackbeard replied. "When I was young, there were a total of 'Nine Gods' in the Chaos Sea. They each occupied an area and did not disturb each other. Every one of them had their own territory and believers. Idiante was just one of the Nine Gods that everyone knew."
"Oh?" When Feng Bujue heard this, he immediately exchanged glances with Hong Hu and asked, "Then … where are they now?"
"How would I know?" Blackbeard asked in return. "When the era of the Four Pillar Gods came, I left the Chaos Sea. I only know that they didn't leave …"
"Ha!" Crazy Eye laughed when he heard this. "They aren't as smart as you."
"What?" Brother Jue raised his eyebrows and looked at Crazy Eye. "What do you mean … you know the whereabouts of the Nine Gods?"
"Hmph … this isn't a secret to begin with," Crazy Eye replied. "Many years ago …" He glanced at Blackbeard. "Not long after that guy left, the Nine Gods of the Chaos Sea and the Four Pillar Gods had a conflict. After a great battle, the Nine Gods suffered a crushing defeat and four of them died on the spot … The surviving God of Foolishness, God of Lies, God of Wandering, God of Wisdom, and God of Truth joined forces to cast a spell and escaped into other planes. Since then, no one has seen them again." He paused. "Of course … over the years, there have been rumors that they haven't given up and have left some altars and documents in this plane, hoping that one day they can return here and make a comeback."
"Oh …" Feng Bujue nodded and thought to himself, "That means … the elf that we roasted and ate when we came to Devil's Maw Island last time (the God of Wandering, Walcor) was actually super strong? He was secretly active on Devil's Maw Island, accumulating power, but we accidentally tricked him … Hmm … speaking of which, how does Uncle Loser calculate the lethality of his feminine form? Is it a causal weapon … "
Just as Brother Jue was thinking, on the other side, the battle between the three Blackbeard Pirates officers and Wang Long had reached a critical moment.
But …
