Xiaoluo stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the Sea Kings, each about a hundred meters in size.
"How the hell did we attract so many Sea Kings!"
Xiaoluo looked at the Sea Kings in front of him, hardly believing his eyes.
"Boss! The Sea Kings are attacking us!"
At the stern of the ship, several underlings shouted in panic.
Xiaoluo frowned. Without further thought, he took a big step towards the stern.
He saw a huge tail smashing towards the ship.
Without hesitation, Xiaoluo rushed forward.
He threw a punch with all his might at the Sea King's tail.
Instantly, a huge hole appeared in the tail.
It was punched out by Xiaoluo.
"Moo~!"
The Sea King, whose head alone was ten meters in size, let out a painful cry.
And this cry set off a chain reaction.
Seven or eight Sea Kings surrounding Xiaoluo's pirate ship launched an attack all at once.
With the perception of [Observation Haki], Xiaoluo could feel the anger of these Sea Kings.
"Damn it! Why are these Sea Kings leaving the deep and surfacing?"
Xiaoluo didn't think a few dozen corpses could attract Sea Kings. And these were dozen or so hundred - meter - sized ones!
Xiaoluo's expression changed drastically when he saw seven or eight Sea Kings attacking at the same time.
"Grab the handrails!"
Xiaoluo roared to warn the people on the ship to be careful!
Then Xiaoluo dived into the sea and rushed towards the Sea Kings.
He ran on the sea using Moon Walk [a technique that allows one to walk on air]!
He rushed to the head of a Sea King about seventy meters in size, drew his long sword, and gave a powerful swing. A ten - meter - long slash cut across the Sea King's head.
"Roar! Roarr~!"
The huge slash instantly sliced through the Sea King's body, creating a ten - meter - long gash from head to tail.
A large amount of blood splashed on the sea surface.
The injured Sea King writhed its huge body in pain, slapping the waves.
Xiaoluo saw the Sea King struggling violently and didn't dare let it go on. He fully activated [Observation Haki] and noticed some people on the pirate ship had fallen into the sea because of the waves.
Xiaoluo swung his sword backhand.
Another ten - meter - long slash struck the injured Sea King.
This Sea King that resembled a giant whale completely lost its ability to resist.
Xiaoluo sensed the disappearance of the Sea King's qi through his [Observation Haki]. Without wasting any time, he stepped on Moon Walk on the Sea King's corpse.
He went to save that unlucky guy.
"Help! Glub glub! Help!"
That underling was caught in the sea. Because of the surging waves, he was constantly being dragged under, and he was desperately calling for help.
Xiaoluo's legs sprang up, and in an instant, he reached the side of the fallen underling. He reached out and grabbed the underling, then flung him onto the deck of the pirate ship.
"Hold on to the handrails tightly and don't let go until I deal with these Sea Kings!"
Xiaoluo roared.
After hearing Xiaoluo's voice, everyone on the pirate ship nervously hugged the handrails beside them tightly.
While Xiaoluo was saving the underling, the Sea Kings had already swum to the side of the pirate ship.
Xiaoluo was extremely anxious.
"This is the goddamn pirate ship I've set my eyes on!"
This ship is obviously brand new. Once we get back, we can make a few modifications, and it'll be a great vessel. We can't just let these Sea Kings destroy it.
Stepping on the deck, Xia Luo instantly leaped onto the head of the nearest Sea King and thrust his sword into it with all his might.
The qi sword aura instantly penetrated the Sea King's body, wildly ravaging its brain.
The endless qi sword aura shredded everything in its path, and the Sea King dropped dead on the spot.
Without hesitation, Xia Luo rushed towards another Sea King.
The sudden death of two of their companions made the Sea Kings realize at once that Xia Luo was the real threat.
They immediately abandoned their attack on the ship and surrounded Xia Luo instead.
Xia Luo stood on the corpse of the dead Sea King, holding his sword and eyeing these Sea Kings.
The two sides were at a standstill.
But it didn't last long. A huge squid-like Sea King lashed out at Xia Luo with its tentacles.
Xia Luo quickly dodged. He had no intention of directly confronting this hundred - meter - long squid.
This squid was the leader of this group of Sea Kings (if Xia Luo's guess was correct).
After the squid made its move, the other Sea Kings also sprang into action.
However, this gave Xia Luo some room to maneuver.
The surrounding Sea Kings were extremely large, and Xia Luo's height of less than two meters became an advantage instead.
Xia Luo kept leaping from one Sea King's head to another, luring the various attacks onto their own kind.
From time to time, Xia Luo also brandished his Flying Slash.
In the time it takes to have a cup of tea, Xia Luo had cut down two more Sea Kings.
"Roar!"
"Grrr!"
The Sea Kings surrounding Xia Luo let out angry roars.
But there were also panicked cries.
Some of the smaller Sea Kings had dived into the sea and disappeared from Xia Luo's [Observation Haki].
Now there were only three Sea Kings left on the surface of the sea.
One of them was the squid-like Sea King.
Strangely enough, the vast ocean had returned to calm.
The three Sea Kings encircled Xia Luo.
Xia Luo remained on high alert, ready to counterattack at any moment.
The four ships following Xia Luo had long been swept far away from the battlefield by the waves.
The crew members were all watching Xia Luo's battle with their telescopes.
Xia Luo swallowed hard.
A sense of unease welled up in his heart.
Suddenly, a scene flashed through his mind.
Xia Luo quickly used the Moonwalk to flee the area.
The moment Xia Luo moved, the squid in front of him spat out a huge amount of ink at the spot where he had been standing.
In an instant, a hundred - meter radius of the sea where Xia Luo had been standing was pitch black.
Xia Luo, who was in mid - air, broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this.
It wasn't the ink itself but the fact that the squid's ink was corrosive, which Xia Luo hadn't expected.
Looking at the former Sea King's corpse, it had been corroded and shrunk by a whole circle.
"What kind of Sea King is this? It's corrosive! Why wasn't it in the anime?"
Xia Luo murmured in shock.
"Luckily, my [Observation Haki] warned me about this. Otherwise, I might really have met my end here today!"
Xia Luo said with a lingering fear.
Then, a deep-seated anger welled up within him.
His eyes narrowed as he stared at the huge squid that was eyeing him. He raised both hands and waved them.
A Chopping Wave more than ten meters long sliced towards the squid.
The squid's massive body couldn't move quickly enough to dodge.
It could only raise its tentacles to shield its front.
The Chopping Wave struck the tentacles and instantly severed them in half.
"Ang~!"
A huge screech rang out.
The squid spewed a huge amount of ink onto the ground, and it spread in all directions.
This stunned the two squids beside it, and they quickly fled from its side at full tilt.
Taking advantage of the squid's pained screech, Xia Luo took a giant leap in the air, brandishing his long sword, and charged towards the squid's front. Then he swung his sword.
In an instant, he split the squid in half from top to bottom.
