"That person?"
Tunas caught the strange word from Calci's mouth. He subconsciously looked around and saw that the lower deck was broken in the middle. The deck was covered in grayish brown smoke. It was wood chips, iron nails, splashing waves, and even mixed with flesh and blood.
He could hear the clashing of steel blades, the firing of flintlock guns, the piercing of metal and flesh, and heavy objects falling into the sea before being submerged. There were shouts of killing everywhere, and the cold sea breeze stirred up a blood-colored mist.
Amidst the chaos, he saw a black cloth shoe stepping on the deck. The strong man was like a dangerous peak wrapped in steel cables, and behind the dangerous peak were two tall and sturdy figures. Their strange tail hooks were like swaying pythons, and their tails formed horns as they surrounded the dangerous peak.
One of the tiago's bodyguards rushed forward with bloodshot eyes, only to see a tail hook shoot out, piercing through his shoulder blade. Blood spurted out as the tail hook pierced through the bodyguard's body, effortlessly lifting him up in mid-air. His feet left the ground as he was dragged towards the man in the middle.
“0.1，1.”
A line of numbers appeared in his eyes. Yarlin's eyes were indifferent. His left hand was covered with black veins, and his five fingers pierced the guard's chest.
Hu …
In a breath's time, the panicked screams disappeared. The body was dehydrated and dried up at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was like a corpse that had been weathered for thousands of years.
Ya Erlin pulled his hand back, and with a flick of the Inferior Slave's tail, the corpse was flung into the sea. A few bubbles popped up, and the corpse quickly sank into the sea and disappeared.
The series of movements were extremely smooth, as if they had done this many times before. Indeed, this was the case. The points displayed on Arlen's eye sockets rose to 1.1 once again.
"A devil fruit ability user?"
Tunas's pupils shrank, he couldn't help but have a thought. Then he doubted, "But, to be able to suck people dry, what kind of devil fruit could it be?"
Calci's pupils also trembled, he felt a chill in his heart. This was the first time he saw Yarlin's strange ability. His heart was filled with dread.
Originally, he was only afraid of Yarlin's Marine background, but now, he has to be afraid of this man's strange ability.
As the weakest of the Four Seas, the number of Devil Fruits circulating in the East Blue is very small. Most people in the East Blue don't believe in the existence of Devil Fruits. For example, no one in the Red Skull Pirates has ever seen a Devil Fruit. But as the captain, Calci knew that Devil Fruits are real.
"The Devil Fruit is known as the treasure of the sea. After eating it, one can obtain incredible and terrifying abilities, but as a price, one will be cursed by the sea and become a non-swimmer." Calci's mind was filled with rumors about the devil fruit. His eyes were filled with envy. He dreamt of getting his hands on a devil fruit. Compared to obtaining a powerful ability, not being able to swim wasn't even a side effect.
"You're that person? The one who left the note for Calci? " Tunas stared at Yarlin. He had never heard of such a person in the Red Skull Pirates. Thinking of Calci's words and the look on his face at this moment, Tunas was surprised and had an answer.
Yarlin walked past a radius of 5 meters. The fighting was strangely dispersed. He blinked and looked at Tunas's surprised eyes. He whispered, "Note? Well, it should be me. "
"Who are you?" Tunas stared deeply at Yarlin. He wanted to retreat. Lombardo's death and the Red Skull Pirates added fuel to the fire. The situation in Rainbow Stone Town was completely irreversible. He needed to find a way to escape.
"I'm Yarlin." He pulled the slave's clothes and wiped the blood off his hands. Then, he looked up at Tunas and asked, "Tiago's fleet is finished. I think you are a smart man. You don't want to die, do you?"
Bang! Bang!
The keel of another merchant ship suddenly broke, and the entire hull collapsed from the middle. It swayed and sank into the sea. The people on the ship couldn't stand still and fell into the cold sea like dumplings. The pirates with steel knives in their mouths climbed along the slanted mast and jumped to other ships. Then, they turned back and their companions tied the ropes of their guns. The yellowish-brown bullets were shot into the sea. Soon, a large area of dark red surfaced in the sea, and one by one, corpses floated up.
Raindrops began to fall from the sky and splashed around the floating corpses.
All the sounds and pictures at this moment seemed to be quickly converging into Tunas's vision. He spat out a white breath from his mouth and stared at Yarlin with blurred eyes. Suddenly, he laughed twice. "It's raining!"
Yarlin looked up. His wet hair stuck to his forehead. He opened his eyes and saw the black smoke above the town slowly dispersing. The raging sea of fire also reluctantly lowered its head.
"Oh ~" He narrowed his eyes and stared at Tunas. His voice was flat. "It's too late. A heavy rain can't change anything. Look at the wreckage under your feet. You have no chance to turn the tables."
"No, it's not over yet. It's not over yet."
Tunas suddenly retreated. The soles of his shoes left two bloodstains on the deck. He quickly retreated to the side of the ship and jumped onto the beach.
Yarlin's eyes were still squinting. Calci's face slightly changed. Novi rushed over and jumped off the deck in a few steps. He rolled on the ground and chased after Tunas like a cheetah.
"Did you deliberately let him go?" Calci noticed Yarlin's indifferent expression. He didn't ask but pointed to the side and asked, "What do you want to do with them? Kill them all?"
Tunas' escape was the last straw that broke the camel's back. The sailors of the Tiago Caravan gave up their resistance and knelt on the deck.
"No, leave them alive." Ya Erlin shook his head. Killing people was the most violent and wasteful way of doing things. Excluding extreme cases, Ya Erlin didn't like to deal with his spoils of war in such a simple and crude way. After all, the living could create more value than the dead. He looked at Calci and said, "I don't know how many people were killed in this fire. The quarry needs to be replenished with manpower."
"The Tiago caravan was attacked by pirates. Everyone on board died. They are just a bunch of homeless people. I'll allow them to stay on this island forever and make a fortune for the 153rd Marine Branch to wash away their sins." Arlen paused for a moment before announcing the outcome of the incident. "Tiago's caravan was attacked by pirates.
"I'm very satisfied with your performance in this plan. I promise that the next time I put on my uniform, I will bring the friendship of the entire 153 Branch." Yarlin patted Calci's shoulder and grinned, "Happy cooperation!"
"Happy cooperation." Calci grinned, revealing his terrifying black insect teeth. He gave a few orders to the pirates below. Soon, the pirates gathered the captives and tied them up with hemp ropes.
