Moreover, Cao Ya's target is those pirate kings. The pirate generals are all too weak to allow him to ascend to the throne of pirate king.
Well, there is no Pirate King in this world yet, only the Four Pirate Kings.
"The Immortal King" Agarito, "The King of the Five Seas" Nast Solomon, "The King of the Black Sea" Barros Hopkins, and "The Mysterious Queen" Bernadette Gustave.
Cao Ya has his sights set on the Immortal King.
Because of the Immortal King's ship, the "Deathcaller".
"The Undying King" Agaritu is the Sequence 3 "Whisperer" of the Abyss Path.
Of course, this is just a disguise.
In reality, Agarito was simply a puppet brought in by the "Death Note" to cover up their true intentions, and all the crew members on board were merely puppets manipulated by this self-aware sealed object.
A true army formed from a single ship!
To become the Pirate King, how can you do without a powerful ship?
Cao Ya turned and left, preparing to go out to sea in a deserted place.
But on the way, he ran into an acquaintance.
"stop?"
The petite woman walking towards us was about 1.5 meters tall. She had delicate and soft features, and her eyebrows and eyes were not yet fully developed. She was a rather naive girl, but also an extraordinary individual who had passed through the "Judgment" pathway.
Xiu also saw Cao Ya and a smile appeared on his face.
As an extraordinary individual using the "Judgment" pathway, she travels to Backlund under the alias "Hugh Deercha" to investigate the mystery of her father's death, where she meets Fors.
Hugh is an honest and kind man, but sometimes impulsive and hot-blooded, so he occasionally leaves Backlund to investigate cases and hunt down criminals in other cities.
The reason for Xiu and Cao Ya's first two encounters was because of this.
Now it seems that this third time will be the same.
Cao Ya smiled slightly, looked at Xiu, and said with a hint of joy in her voice:
"Another manhunt for criminals?"
He didn't tell Hugh the truth about her father's death, which concerned the royal family of the Kingdom of Rune. Not only were there demigods, but even angels existed. Telling Hugh would only send her to her death.
Now, Cao Ya avoids that mess like the plague.
Hugh nodded and asked with a smile:
"You're going out to sea? I heard there's been some trouble at sea, you need to be careful."
After thinking about it seriously, she pursed her lips and smiled shyly:
"I forgot, you are a demigod, and you are actually very powerful, so you are not afraid of those things."
Cao Ya laughed and chatted with Xiu, postponing their plans to go to sea. They took Xiu to a restaurant for a meal and chatted casually.
They shared some interesting stories from their travels, and Hugh even complained about her writer friend from Backlund.
Cao Ya knew who it was: Miss Fors, the "magician" from the Tarot Club.
Because they each had important matters to attend to, the two parted ways after the meal.
Before parting, Cao Ya gave Xiu a supernatural item, which Cao Ya rarely uses now.
After all, compared to his combat strength, it was far inferior and could not play any role.
Xiu was unwilling to accept it, but only accepted it after seeing Cao Ya feign anger.
The pursuit of the killer often involved danger, and having extraordinary items certainly gave her more confidence.
Watching Xiu leave, Cao Ya didn't linger in Pulitzer Harbor. He went out to sea in a deserted place, his power distorting the light so that no one could actually see him.
Arriving at the sea, Cao Ya flew and spread his senses.
He wasn't in a hurry. There was plenty of time to search for the Death Note. Once he captured the Death Note, the title of Pirate King would be practically his.
After all, the Deathstalker was a living ship, and it became one of the four great pirate kings on its own.
Below, blue waves gently rippled, and silvery flying fish occasionally leaped out of the water, soaring in the air.
This fish can "fly" and swim, and is considered by fishermen and sailors to be a retinue of the "Lord of Storms." Even if it's caught, it's released back into the sea... Ha, the Lord of Storms can't be that weak, his retinue is this kind of creature...
Cao Yafei was in the sky, looking down at the ocean, admiring the sea surface under the sunlight and the flying fish on the sea surface, and one thought after another flashed through his mind.
He had been to the sea before, mainly by boat, and he was wary of the other people on board, worried that there might be thieves colluding with pirates. Although it turned out that his worries were unfounded, he was not strong enough and had to be cautious.
But things are different now.
Not only can he fly, but his defense is also off the charts. Even a Sequence 3 angel might not be able to defeat him. As long as no angel of Sequence 2 or higher appears, Cao Ya is basically fearless.
Indeed, many secrets exist on the sea, involving angels, even gods, and ancient ruins or islands.
But Cao Ya has a keen sense of perception; he could have avoided it in advance.
His goal was to kill the Undead King, not to explore the ocean.
Before long, the novelty wore off, and Cao Ya began to feel bored.
After all, the scenery of the sea is too unchanging.
On the boundless ocean, Cao Ya was full of confidence as he searched for a ship. His perception range was very wide, and he could easily distinguish things within a range of tens or hundreds of miles.
He believed that although the ocean was vast, the Dead Man's Tale would eventually be found; it would just take a little longer.
Now I realize how unreliable this idea was.
Is it possible for him to travel across an entire ocean in a short period of time?
Just as Cao Ya was troubled, a deep red light suddenly appeared before his eyes, and a mysterious palace above the gray mist loomed in and out of view. A majestic voice echoed in his ears:
"The world requests to speak with you."
Cao Ya's eyes lit up. Perfect, he could also search the world to confirm the whereabouts of the Death Note.
Klein spent this time at sea.
Consciousness entered the gray fog. The figure of the "Fool" remained motionless, still sitting cross-legged. Cao Ya paid his respects and then looked at the "world" opposite him.
The world spoke first:
"Teacher, it's me, Klein."
I knew it was you...
Cao Ya pretended to recognize him for the first time, staring wide-eyed in surprise.
At the head of the table, "The Fool" Klein observes Cao Ya's emotions.
Hmm, the color change wasn't drastic, so it seems we already had a guess... Did the teacher recognize me at the last gathering? I didn't act like myself; the definition of "the world" is rather crazy... Luckily, I revealed my identity beforehand, otherwise, if the teacher had truly confirmed it...
Klein resisted the urge to cover his face and manipulated the "world" to say:
"I never expected that my teacher would become a member of the Tarot Club."
Then, feigning confusion, he asked:
"Teacher, why did you use your real name? When you taught me, you repeatedly told me to use a pseudonym or code name in unfamiliar environments."
Klein had a quirky sense of humor, but he was also grateful for Cao Ya's guidance, though he had also suffered a lot.
"Before the gods, would I dare use a false name?" Cao Ya asked, seemingly surprised as well.
"..." Klein was speechless. Well, he had forgotten that the pressure his account "Fool" put on the members was actually enormous.
