At that moment, both sides looked at each other, and their desire to fight was self-evident.
A battle at the level of gods was about to begin.
However, at that moment.
From the portal behind Blackbeard and the others that had not yet closed, four figures suddenly appeared.
Feng Bujue, who was walking at the front, came in to take a look at the situation and said with a smile, "Wow, it's quite lively here."
"Hmm?" When Blackbeard heard that, he turned his head and looked at them with suspicion. "You guys …" As he muttered those two words, his gaze moved to Ambitionist. "No … I should say … 'you' kid … did a pretty good job."
"You figured it out so quickly …" Hong Hu looked at Blackbeard and said in a low voice, "What a sharp guy …"
"Hmph …" Black Beard snorted. "If you were alert enough, you wouldn't have thought of it until now …" He paused for a moment before he continued, "I thought … you wanted to use that Spirit Explosion to cover up those tracking arrows. I didn't expect that … you were playing with me in reverse. You wanted to make me think that way, so that I would think that I had broken your tracking method. But in reality, those tracking arrows were a cover. The real beacon you used to track me was the blood in your body that splashed on me when you used that technique. "
"That's right, you weren't sharp enough." In the next second, Feng Bujue took over and said to Blackbeard, "It's already too late to mention this technique now … Also, after you entered the phase space, you didn't close the portal in time so that we could follow closely behind … This was obviously an oversight."
"Ha …" Hearing this, before Blackbeard could reply, Madman laughed and said, "It's not that he didn't want to close the portal, but he couldn't."
"Oh?" Feng Bujue looked at him questioningly.
"Just as he said …" Blackbeard shrugged and looked at Brother Jue to explain, "The way I opened the treasure space is naturally different from you 'treasure hunters'. You don't know the 'spell' of the seal, so you all used the power of the 'key item' to teleport in. I, on the other hand, used the spell to 'open' the portal to come in."
"Oh …" Snow understood and nodded. "That means … the opening and closing of the seal has to be done 'outside', right?"
"That's not important anymore," Blackbeard said. "Since you're all in … then, how about we discuss the terms?"
"You want us to help you …" Feng Bujue said as he slowly walked forward. He approached Twenty-Three and fixed his gaze on the latter. "… You want us to fight her together?"
"I won't beat around the bush with you smart people," Blackbeard said. "If we work together to deal with this Anomaly, I … can give you one-third of the treasure here."
"Ha! Hahahahaha … "Feng Bujue heard this and laughed out loud.
Before the laughter stopped, he had already walked to Twenty-Three's side.
The two of them looked at each other and were silent for a moment. Then, Brother Jue spoke first, "So … How much are you going to give me?"
"I don't need your help," Twenty-Three said. "You just need to watch from the side. When I'm done with the situation, I'll only take one thing from the treasure. The rest can be given to you."
Before she finished speaking, Feng Bujue turned to look at Blackbeard. "Did you hear that?"
Blackbeard did not answer, but his expression became a little gloomy.
"Hey hey … Feng Bujue, I can't pretend that I didn't hear that." However, Ken, or Red Iron, who was standing at the back of the crowd … Naturally, he could not let the situation develop like this. "If Twenty-Three swallows all of Blackbeard's power, then …"
"Then what?" Feng Bujue did not let him finish and interrupted. "Her ability will exceed the control of the Z Organization, will it exceed Zero? Or even threaten the system? "
"Huh?" Red Iron was startled. "The three examples in your sentence are all dangerous enough, don't you think?"
"Whether it is dangerous or not, I have my own judgment." Feng Bujue replied. "'A power without limit must be dangerous' is just Zero's judgment. I did not say that I agreed with it."
"Huh?" Red Iron's expression became even more interesting. "Wait a minute … You should know that the four people who came to kill you were sent by her, right?"
"I know." Feng Bujue replied matter-of-factly. "But that only means that … she is trying to 'send me out of the scenario before I notice her presence', and that intention is not enough to prove that she is a threat."
Their conversation caused Blackbeard's group, as well as Ambitionist and Snow, to fall into a state of semi-confusion. They could not find any room to interrupt at all.
After a strange silence, Wing took over Ken's body and said to Brother Jue, "Then … what do you plan to do now?"
"Haha …" Feng Bujue was waiting for this sentence. "I have a suggestion." He paused for half a second before saying, "A three-way trade."
"What kind of trade?" Blackbeard was the first to answer.
As an experienced pirate captain, he knew very well that he was the weakest party. Since there was an opportunity to avoid violence, he had to grab it.
"I would like to hear it as well," Twenty-Three added.
"Er …" Snow looked around and laughed drily. He told Brother Jue, "We are on your side, right? If you are on the fourth side … you have to give us a heads-up first … "
"Okay." Feng Bujue once again rudely interrupted the others and said, "Since this is a trade, of course, we have to take a step back …" He first raised his finger to point at himself. "We travelers from another world are not asking for much …" He looked at Blackbeard. "We just want an original translation of the Ramayana and pick eight or ten less important items from these treasures as souvenirs. That's not too much to ask, right?"
"From the perspective of a pirate … that is acceptable," Blackbeard answered darkly.
His answer was very clever, because the subtext of this sentence was probably: "From my personal standpoint, f * ck you!"
"Okay, okay …" Feng Bujue smiled and turned to Twenty-Three. "About Twenty-Three's request, she has already mentioned it. You … only want one thing, right?"
Twenty-Three did not answer Feng Bujue but looked directly at Blackbeard. "I want the [City Work Boss' Red Bow Tie] that you have stored in the Inner Space. I am not interested in anything else."
"What?" Blackbeard revealed a rare look of bewilderment. "You just want that thing?"
"What's so special about that thing?" Feng Bujue took the opportunity to ask.
"Those who wear that bow tie will immediately suffer from multiple personality disorder," Blackbeard said.
"That's all?" When Brother Jue asked this question, he glanced at Twenty-Three from the corner of his eyes.
"Yes, that's all," Blackbeard said.
"Then why did you place it in the Inner Space?" Feng Bujue asked.
"Of course, it is to prevent my guard from putting it on out of curiosity or boredom and then doing … hmm … who knows what he will do," Blackbeard said.
"Oh." Feng Bujue nodded. "Then … you agree to this condition?"
"Before I agree, I have a question … for that Miss Anomaly." Blackbeard was not that obedient. Even though the situation was bad, he had to fight for some benefits for himself.
"Ask away," Twenty-Three replied calmly.
"The guard in charge of guarding my treasure …" Blackbeard did not explicitly say that the guard was his son. He also did not show any concern that a father should show lest the other party lied after learning this information. "… Has he been killed by you?"
"I have no idea what you are talking about," Twenty-Three replied without thinking. "When I entered this space, there was no one here."
"Hmm …" Blackbeard groaned. "That … is impossible …"
To put it bluntly, he did not believe it.
"Then I have no idea … I did not stay on this island for long," Twenty-Three said. "Perhaps … when I wasn't on the island, something happened between your guards and the Nine Gods or the traitors of the Phantom Demon Church. As for the details … you can investigate it yourself. "She paused." Based on my estimation, there should be some survivors on the island. "
"Understood …" Blackbeard was a rational person. After some analysis, he believed that Twenty-Three was most likely telling the truth. "Okay … I will deal with it myself. I hope you …"
"Don't worry." Twenty-Three knew what he was going to say, so she cut him off. "Those people are no longer of any use to me. You can deal with them as you wish."
"Humph … That's good." Blackbeard scoffed and then turned his gaze to Brother Jue. "Feng Bujue, you said that this is a three-way deal, but from what I hear … I am the one who is losing out. So … what do I stand to gain from this deal?"
"Other than the items that we have taken, all the treasures that are left, and you will walk out of here alive. Isn't that enough?" Feng Bujue's voice turned cold, and his expression and tone were aggressive.
"Haha … to take away the treasures that belong to me … and my life?" Blackbeard smiled and added helplessly. "Fine, that sounds fair."
"Since you have no objections, then this deal …" Feng Bujue wanted to strike while the iron was hot. He wanted to get this done as soon as possible.
However, Red Iron and Wing would not just stand by and do nothing.
"Feng Bujue." At this time, Chi Tie's tone also became not so friendly. "Can I assume that … on the issue of 23, you have already stood on her side?"
"I didn't say that." Brother Jue added. "Let's put that aside. After this three-way deal is over, we can discuss this …"
Before the word 'this' left his lips, something that even Brother Jue did not expect happened.
"I'm sorry …" When he apologized, Twenty-Three's hand pierced through Feng Bujue's back … and through his chest. "If possible … I wish to ask you to leave Thriller Paradise for a while."
"You …" Feng Bujue slowly turned his head around like he wanted to say something.
Twenty-Three had a cold expression on her face. She lowered her eyes to avoid Feng Bujue's gaze.
Brother Jue did not manage to say anything because at that moment, a colorful, mottled light started to spread from the wound on his chest … and it started to corrode his body at an extremely fast speed.
"This is bad!" Seeing this, the first to rush out was Red Iron. His body flashed, and he was already beside Twenty-Three. He wanted to use a kick to chop off Twenty-Three's arm.
But …
"You won't be able to do it." Twenty-Three's melancholy voice rang out. At the same time, she reached out her other hand and pointed at Red Iron's direction.
In an instant, a transparent ripple bloomed in the air, wrapping around Chi Tie like water ripples, causing his lightning-fast body to freeze in mid-air.
"This is … the … river … of … time …" The next second, Red Iron and Wing's voices overlapped and came out from Ken's throat. However, after squeezing out half a sentence, even their voices were 'stopped'.
