Chapter 267: The Most Ferocious Pirate

[What the heck, Sister Surtr’s true form?]

[The God of War Surtr has appeared?]

[A shadow… I have never seen it before!]

[Can it still come out?]

[If Surtr himself was here, not just this ‘hunger,’ the entire Forbidden Sea could be plowed through; he is one of the strongest gods.]

"The heart that kills gods…" Karoso murmured.

"That’s right, right now you are not angry enough, you don’t have that fearless spirit. Back then, when Neymar was almost possessed by the God of Wisdom, what did you do? Even if you fought until your last breath, you never showed any sign of giving up."

"But now, you want to give up."

"You are not like you were then, so bold and daring."

"That’s true…" Karoso sighed.

"To put it simply, your current strong mindset is not enough. You need to tell yourself that you are stronger than Him now."

"That’s not true, I can’t fool myself…" Karoso shook his head.

"The education you once received has made you exceptionally steady, which also makes you too concerned about the pros and cons in your eyes. A true strong heart does not think about these things. I can only offer you advice, I can’t use my power to help you. But this proves that you are stronger than Him now!"

"In this battle, you must grow. Remember, sometimes it’s not that you can’t fight, but that you… don’t dare to fight!"

Buzz!

Karoso’s body swayed as the divine energy within him surged wildly.

His blue hair and eyes returned to their original color at that moment.

"Even if it’s a god, don’t let Him change your colors!"

"You once refused to be just my The Favored One and claimed you would surpass me. Other gods have no right to make you carry their colors!"

Buzz!

Red runes began to float around Karoso, and his stats started to rise!

"You should have used the power of The Favored One from the start. It’s your power; why not use it?"

Karoso’s eyes widened.

Can the power of The Favored One and the power of the God of Wisdom really work together?

You should know that when Karoso tried to mix the normal Card Maker and the warrior’s Professional Mark, he almost failed completely.

"How will you know it doesn’t work if you don’t try? What is the God of Wisdom to suppress my power and stop me from using it?"

Karoso seemed to think of something; he closed his eyes and then slowly opened them again.

Suddenly, fine red lines appeared on the "hunger."

With the power of the God of Wisdom supporting him, Karoso’s eyes did not bleed this time.

"Brother, my divine power is running out quickly, hurry!" Neymar reminded from the side.

‘Hunger’ did not react when Surtr appeared.

It is clear that he is on a completely different level than Surtr.

Now, as Karoso opened his eyes, he saw the threads of death on him, which filled him with fear.

His physical body took countless years to piece together, and if it breaks again… he wonders how long he will have to wait.

‘Hunger’ gave up on finishing off Tige and quickly turned around.

Seeing Surtr’s shadow, ‘Hunger’ shouted angrily, "Surtr!"

After shouting, he charged in the direction of the two.

"Do not try to understand rules you do not know, and do not try to use rules you have not used before. In the war of gods, the rules are important, but they are not everything. You have the power of the God of Wisdom, which allows you to ignore His understanding of the rules and use your divine strength to break through the rules and fight Him!"

Karoso listened to Surtr’s teachings and nodded solemnly.

He took a deep breath and decisively rushed toward ‘Hunger.’

Surtr said, "If I am stronger than Him, then I should really be stronger than Him!"

"Like this…"

Bang!

Karoso felt like he had crashed into something, which shook his body, and he soon found himself in front of ‘Hunger.’

Karoso raised Shining Courage in his hand and swung it at ‘Hunger.’

For some reason, Karoso was filled with an unstoppable courage.

Karoso knew the power of the sword before him; it could make a person brave.

It’s not just Surtr giving me courage; it is also this sword.

Why do they give me courage? Maybe it is because I was… scared before!

Karoso is not someone who stubbornly refuses everything.

Being scared is being scared; there is nothing more to say.

Thinking about this, a wave of anger rose in Karoso’s heart.

Just a god… why should I be afraid?

When I looked up before, it was out of stubbornness and unwillingness to accept, not real courage to face the god with my sword.

But now, I have that courage.

Bang!

The wings of Shining Courage and ‘Hunger’ collided, making a sound like metal clashing.

Although Karoso was a bit overwhelmed, he was filled with joy, "First Mate, he can’t keep going. He is only a little stronger than me when he fights hard. Let’s team up and defeat him, avenging our father!"

The First Mate was still in a state of confusion.

The captain had fallen, the young master was rising strong, and there was even a ghostly image of another deity behind him. What on earth was happening?

For a moment, he didn’t know whether to treat the captain or help Karoso.

Now, Karoso had given him an answer.

The First Mate decisively charged at ‘Hunger’, his long knife exuding a chilling aura.

Splat!

"Hunger" was caught off guard and was stabbed in the back by the first mate.

His blood wanted to splatter onto the first mate, but he saw the light of Shining Courage in Karoso’s hand growing brighter, and then Karoso kicked him in the eye.

"Ow!"

"Hunger" let out a wail, as if blaming Karoso for not fighting fairly.

This kick made his control over his power weaker, and his blood did not harm the first mate.

Bang…

Tige fell helplessly onto the Black Pearl.

Now, he could hardly even stand up.

He looked up at Karoso, who was fighting the god, with confusion in his eyes.

He shook his head, remembering a small problem.

He looked at Karoso’s figure and murmured, "Defeat him, Jack…"

Without the protection of the rules, he had forgotten that Karoso was his descendant and once again treated Karoso as his son.

Although he didn’t understand where his son got such power, it didn’t stop him from hoping his son could kill a god.

The Shining Courage in Karoso’s hand waved wildly, while ‘Hunger’ defended itself with its wings.

"Create an opportunity for me!" Karoso shouted.

"Okay!"

The deputy’s magic was useless at this moment; he could only rely on some rules he had understood while fighting ‘Hunger.’

The long knife in his hand slipped, and a faint flame spread towards ‘Hunger.’

Zizzle…

"Wow!"

‘Hunger’ howled again, its wings spinning and hitting the first mate.

Whoosh…

The first mate flew downward uncontrollably.

Bang!

He crashed straight onto the Black Pearl, and it killed a pirate.

He tried hard to get up but realized that last hit had completely shattered his magic power.

But he truly created a chance for Karoso.

Pffft!

Karoso aimed at a thread and sliced it with his sword.

The blood of ‘Hunger’ gushed out like a waterfall in a wild spray.

"Argh!"

‘Hunger’ let out a loud shout.

Suddenly, its body started to break apart, turning into countless pieces.

"This is a wound I left on it long ago. Even if it comes together well, there will still be gaps… I hope that in the future, you won’t have to use the wounds I left behind."

After Surtr spoke, his figure slowly faded away.

During the tough struggle just now, he had been guiding Karoso, showing him how to use his existing divine power to fight against the gods.

Karoso’s understanding of the rules and the source of power has taken a huge leap.

Karoso originally understood only a part of the source of power of the Lord of Eternity.

Now, Surtr has also taught Karoso about her own source of power.

The Lord of Eternity fights using the laws of life and death, while Surtr fights with fire and the purest strength!

Splash, splash, splash…

The ‘hungry’ body is falling into the Forbidden Sea.

After it hits the water, the stones sink quickly to the bottom, as if they weigh a thousand pounds.

His blood also flows into the Forbidden Sea.

"Brother… you won."

After Neymar spoke, her figure slowly disappeared.

Without Neymar’s power, Karoso fell down quickly.

Fortunately, his own magic was still there, so he quickly adjusted his body in the air and landed safely on the ship.

The fighting on the ship had ended, and there were nine pirates left alive, including the first mate and Tige.

After landing, Karoso ran to Tige’s side immediately, "Captain…"

Elizabeth ran to Karoso’s side, anxious, and said, "Karoso, are you okay?"

Karoso slowly shook his head.

Elizabeth had many questions for Karoso, but she didn’t know how to begin.

Looking at Tige’s condition, she couldn’t say anything.

Although Tige initially treated her as a helper and tossed her into the sea, putting her in great danger, later he even regarded her as a product to give to Karoso…

However, when she defeated Silent Mary with the help of the Black Pearl, Tige made her the helmsman, which made it hard for Elizabeth to hate him.

This is the charm of Tige and also the charm of Grand Duke Osiris.

If you have no ability, you can only help me, be treated as a product, and your life and death are not in your own hands.

But if you have the ability, I can give you everything that matches your ability; it’s very fair.

Speaking of this era, even in modern times, bosses promote people because of their abilities, not because of connections or flattery. How many can actually do that?

"Ahem…"

Tige’s eyes lost focus, and his hand slowly touched Karoso’s face, "Son, well done…"

Karoso opened his mouth, but… has he forgotten already?

Looking at the fallen hero before him, Karoso felt an unrest in his heart.

"Our journey ends here, but your journey… has not finished," Tige looked at Karoso and gave a bitter smile. "The Black Pearl can no longer sail…"

"The Black Pearl can no longer sail?" Elizabeth knelt down and gently stroked the ship’s side.

"Father, I have killed the god. You can become a god now!" Karoso quickly said.

Tige shook his head and said softly, "I… cannot do it anymore. Promise me, in the future, you must become a god… Our family must have a god! Only then can I have something to boast about in Acheron…"

"I will!" Karoso nodded firmly.

Tears slowly slid down Karoso’s cheeks.

Perhaps it was because he resembled Osiris, or perhaps because he was his ancestor, or maybe he simply felt for the fallen hero…

Karoso felt that today he seemed much more emotional, as if his character had crumbled.

He did not know why, but at that moment, his heart, which was as hard as iron, became so soft.

Perhaps he was influenced by Jack?

He had experienced being influenced by the people here before.

"Damn it, stop crying!" Tige said with a laugh, "We just defeated a god, we should be happy!"

"Okay!" Karoso wiped away his tears.

"Let’s leave the Black Pearl, don’t let us be buried with it… I can’t leave, they can’t leave either…"

"Alright."

"Enough! Hurry and get off the ship, take the small boat!" Tige shouted, "Stop dragging your feet, do you want me to kick you off? Don’t you dare look at me like this at the end; that’s not for you to see!"

"I… want to send you off for the last time." Karoso had a complicated expression.

"Go away, hurry up! I don’t need you! I am a pirate." Tige looked up at the night sky, "Dying at sea is where I belong."

"You think you can watch me die? You are not good enough!"

This battle has been going on for more than a day…

"We are pirates, fierce pirates, with a bottle of wine in one hand and treasure in the other…"

At that moment, the pirates began to sing.

They already knew their fate; without the Black Pearl, they could not escape.

They were the undead, not like Karoso and Elizabeth, who were humans.

"We are pirates, skillful pirates. Beautiful maidens, please come into my arms."

"We are pirates, free-spirited pirates, working hard for survival under the skull flag…"

Tige listened to their singing and couldn’t help but join in, "We are pirates, pirates without tomorrow, never ending, drifting pirates on the ocean…"

Karoso stood up and bowed with Elizabeth to Tige.

Then, the two of them got into a small boat and left the Black Pearl.

The small boat had not gone far when the Black Pearl began to slowly sink.

This Forbidden Sea is not a place for just any ship.

When the Black Pearl lacked power, its shape could not keep it afloat in the Forbidden Sea.

Watching the Black Pearl about to sink below the horizon, Elizabeth gently rested her head on Karoso’s shoulder.

"Karoso, is this the fate of pirates?" Elizabeth whispered.

"Yes, this is the fate of pirates," Karoso nodded, "They… are the best pirates, a group that dares to challenge the God of War… they are the greatest pirates…"

"It is better to say they are the fiercest pirates!" Elizabeth said firmly.

"That’s right, they are the fiercest pirates!"
