CHAPTER 360: CHAPTER 61: SWEET KISSES AND STABBING REMARKS

Splashes rose as Su Xiao, wielding the Spider Queen, charged to the seaside.

Bam, bam, bam...

Su Xiao fired a dozen shots. Unlike ordinary firearms, the bullets from the Spider Queen had strong kinetic energy, capable of killing enemies even underwater.

After emptying the magazine, shell casings littered Su Xiao’s feet. He emptied the magazine and reloaded it with bullets, making it more convenient for future use.

The Crazy Healer had fled because this guy was too resilient. During Su Xiao’s pursuit, he had been slashed over a dozen times, but apart from a few cries, he showed no other reaction and instead ran faster and faster.

Putting away the Spider Queen, Su Xiao plopped down onto the ground. Bubu Teni immediately positioned itself in front of him to prevent any surprise attacks from enemies.

Su Xiao was severely injured, with only 11% of his Life Value remaining and just 19 points of Mana Value. He had never been in such a poor state.

There weren’t many healing items left, with only one bottle of [Elf Secret Medicine] remaining to recover from the injuries.

[Elf Secret Medicine]

Origin: Reincarnation Paradise

Quality: Blue

Type: Healing items

Effect: Restores 1% Life Value per second after drinking, lasts for 2 minutes (the recovery effect doubles when used in the forest).

Rating: 70

...

This item is valuable, and Su Xiao hesitated to use it. If used, his injuries would quickly heal. As for the Mana Value, he still had over a dozen bottles of [T3 Potion] in his storage space.

Although [T3 Potion] cannot be taken out of the Pirate World, it can restore 100% Mana Value.

Su Xiao drank the [T3 Potion], and his Mana Value quickly recovered, but the injury remained a problem.

Looking at the [Elf Secret Medicine] in his hand, Su Xiao hesitated whether to use it or not. It was a lifeline card, not essential in the current situation, and using it to heal would be wasteful.

In the distance, Shui Yuan and Xi Luoluo observed Su Xiao.

"Business is coming."

Shui Yang smiled slightly

"Hey, are you crazy?" Xi Luoluo suddenly spoke.

Shui Yuan paused and asked, "What?"

"That man is... a ’Demon’."

Hearing Xi Luoluo’s words, Shui Yuan burst into laughter.

"Anyone roaming Reincarnation Paradise is a... "

Xi Luoluo didn’t waste words with Shui Yang and threw a tablet towards Shui Yang with a short video on it.

Shui Yang played the video, and three gunshots rang out. After seeing the scene, her face turned a bit unpleasant.

"This... is ruthless."

"Heh~. Are you still going?"

Xi Luoluo took back the tablet.

"Now you understand why I asked you to purchase blueprint fragments on my behalf? I don’t even think about getting close to that man. If I hadn’t been smart in the Ghoul World, I’d have been dead by now."

Shui Yang yawned and continued walking towards Su Xiao with a light chuckle.

"Those who value money over life, meet at the usual place."

Xi Luoluo shouted softly, turned and left. She had a shadow over Su Xiao, who was often the protagonist of her nightmares.

Sitting by the seaside, Su Xiao rested, with the sheathed Dragon Slash plunged into the sandy soil beside him, and Bubu Wang sitting upright. The usual foolish aura had vanished, with eyes full of a wolfish gaze scanning the surroundings.

The sea breeze blew over, one man, one sword, one dog by the sea.

Upon seeing this scene, a thought suddenly crossed Shui Yang’s mind. If this man was a native of the Pirate World, this would be the aura of a swordsman.

A pair of icy eyes stared at Shui Yang, who frowned and looked towards Bubu Wang, secretly noting how fierce this Siberian Husky was.

"Good doggy, I’m not a bad person."

Shui Yang took out some snacks from her storage space, trying to feed them to Bubu Wang.

Bubu Wang rolled its eyes, seemingly saying, "What an idiot."

Shui Yang’s expression froze. She was despised by the husky; the dog glared at her with its nostrils, leaving Shui Yang somewhat exasperated.

Bubu Wang had a peculiar trait: it never ate anything not caught by itself or given by Su Xiao.

Even when dining at a restaurant, if the waiter placed food in front of Bubu Wang, it wouldn’t eat a bite. Only when Su Xiao picked up the plate and put it down would it devour the food hastily.

The not-so-well Su Xiao raised his eyes to look at Shui Yang, casually pulling the Dragon Slash from the sand and sheathing it at his waist.

"Have you come here... interested in the Netherworld blueprints?"

Su Xiao gazed at Shui Yang, ready to strike if she answered affirmatively.

"NO, NO, NO, I’m here for business."

"Business?"

Su Xiao immediately thought of a possibility, the other party might be here to sell healing items, and at a high price.

"You’ve come at just the right time."

The Dragon Slash slowly unsheathed as Su Xiao approached Shui Yang, sensing something was wrong.

"I’m not here to sell medicine. Look at this."

Shui Yang showed a skill’s attributes.

[Erotic Kiss]

Type: Active skills.

Usage conditions: Charm 25 points or higher, and female.

Usage effect: User performs a long kiss with a male, restoring 70% of the male’s Life Value (effective if the male has Physical attributes below 30 points), applying a Buff State ’Misty Love’ to the male after the kiss.

Misty Love: Increases Life Value recovery speed by 200% for 10 minutes.

Cooldown: No interval, usable twice per Derivative World, usable times (2/2)

Introduction: Fluid exchange not only replenishes mana but also has excellent healing effects.

...

Seeing this skill’s effect, Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. He had seen this skill before; a healer named Candy from the Other Shore Flower Adventure Group had such a skill.

"10,000 Paradise coin."

Shui Yang smiled slyly, but seeing Su Xiao with his knife, she felt very uneasy...

Two minutes later, Shui Yang sat sulking on the beach, with skill usability decreased to (1/2), Su Xiao was nowhere to be seen.

A slightly mocking voice came, "Heh~, I told you, negotiating with a tiger is foolish, lucky you’re not dead."

Xi Luoluo approached the beach, looking at Shui Yang with schadenfreude.

"He didn’t do anything to me. I did get a bit greedy, so he annoyed me, huh? After recovering his Life Value, that guy just left, where’s the ’deep exchange’ he promised?"

Shui Yang was slightly disgruntled, but she did gain something. Su Xiao traded her for 3,000 Paradise coin.

...

Riding on Bubu Teni’s back, Su Xiao quickly returned to the front of the Justice Tower.

The inside of the Justice Tower was already in chaos by then. Just as Su Xiao prepared to enter, a round figure flew out of the tower.

With a bang, the figure crashed heavily down not far in front of Su Xiao, creating a large crater in the ground.

Seeing this figure, Su Xiao’s face lit up with joy. This was a delivered package of treasure chest, World Source, and Mana Value.

Fukurou of CP9 lay on the ground, face covered in blood. If Su Xiao remembered correctly, Fukurou had been defeated in a fight with Franky and was now knocked out of Enies Lobby.

"Huff, huff~, you’re that Bai Ye guy."

Seeing Su Xiao, despair filled Fukurou’s eyes; maybe he understood something.

"Looks like I’m not too late."

Bubute Ni reached Fukurou’s side, and Fukurou immediately tried to stand, but it was too late.

The Blade Aura flashed as blood gushed from Fukurou’s throat.

[You killed Fukurou]

[Fukurou is a key plot character, gaining 5.3% World Source, now totaling 15.6% World Source.]

[Your Talent ’Soul Eater’ activated, permanently increasing Mana Value by 15 points, now totaling 843 points of Mana Value.]

[You obtained a Blue Treasure Chest]

With an easy strike, the gains were substantial. This was the benefit of staying in the Justice Tower.

The Straw Hat Pirates wouldn’t kill CP9 members, they would merely defeat them, and although this lowered the Grade of the treasure chests, the amount of World Source remained plentiful.

Su Xiao entered the Justice Tower, ready for finishing moves, with four competitors around, Left Wheel and three jesters.
