Chapter 270: Blank History

Minaret pulled out the dagger, and Saladache collapsed to the ground, slowly turning to ashes.

"Huff, huff…" Minaret gasped for breath, "Let me teach you something: an assassin, even with just one breath left, has the power to deliver a deadly strike."

As she said this, she turned to Celica, "You useless fool, you didn’t stop him when he was already finished. Did you want to see him transform? Do you think this is a play?"

"Damn it!" Celica suddenly shouted in anger, "He used all his last strength to control me and Russell, making it impossible for us to get close. Do you think I didn’t want to strike him?"

Minaret knew she was taking advantage of the situation, but she just wanted to insult Celica.

"Huff, finally done," Russell collapsed onto the ground. "What on earth is happening…?"

Soon, Elizabeth and Karoso arrived at the Silent Mary.

When Elizabeth stepped onto the ship, the Silent Mary shook.

Now it is a ship without a master, while the Black Pearl has an owner.

The captain of the Black Pearl is on it, so naturally, it will be afraid.

This ship has swallowed countless pirate ships, and it fears that the Black Pearl will swallow it too.

The power that has a master and the power that does not have a master are two completely different things.

"Tell me, what happened?" Celica’s gaze fixed on the two of them.

The other Paladins and Pastors wanted to come over but were stopped by Celica.

"You two, go back and comfort the civilians!" Celica’s eyes were full of warning.

The two bowed respectfully and did not stay.

However, Alita walked over gracefully.

"I surrender, I surrender!"

Just then, the eighth-tier pirate controlled by Alita raised both hands.

Seeing this, Alita also stopped her magic.

The undead slowly raised his hand and, under the gaze of everyone, returned to the Silent Mary.

The crowd did not attack; so many skilled fighters were not afraid of an ordinary eighth-tier.

Everyone wanted to see what he was planning.

Suddenly, the first mate of the Silent Mary knelt before Elizabeth and shouted, "Honorable master of the Black Pearl, please accept my surrender. I am willing to be a crew member of the Black Pearl…"

Elizabeth’s mouth dropped open, looking at him in disbelief.

Not just Elizabeth, but even those outside of Minaret found it hard to understand this person’s thinking.

Just a moment ago they were fighting fiercely, and now he is surrendering?

You are an eighth-tier; don’t you have any dignity as an eighth-tier?

"Cough, cough…" Minaret coughed twice and said, "In that time, pirates were like this; even when they fought to the death, it was the captain’s problem, not the crew’s. When one pirate ship defeated another, its crew could pledge loyalty to the captain of the other ship. This is written in the pirate code."

"This is not betrayal; it is simply the way of life for pirates."

"If you accept his surrender, place the blade on his shoulder."

"Hmph, no wonder you’re the oldest thief," Celica mocked. "You know quite a bit about wicked ways."

Minaret did not argue but looked at Celica with a caring expression, as if looking at someone a bit simple-minded. "Your ignorance and stubbornness are quite cute."

Elizabeth tried to pull out the knife and placed the blade on his shoulder.

It was clear to see that he, who looked like he was about to turn to ash and felt weightless, changed his appearance.

A skeleton kneeling there appeared before everyone.

"Transformation of the undead?" Celica’s eyes widened.

"The power of Black Pearl is ignorance," Minaret shot a glance at Celica. "Black Pearl is a cursed ship; its official crew is made of skeletons, unless one can break the rules set by Black Pearl’s power. As far as I know, you cannot break through unless you reach the late stage of the ninth level."

"Hmph, this old man knows so much but isn’t very strong," Celica remarked.

"Come on, call me Grandma and let’s hear it," Minaret replied.

"Alright, I know you two are close, but stop arguing for now…" Russell interrupted the two.

"Who is close!"

The two said in unison, "We are arch-enemies!"

"Okay, okay, arch-enemies, arch-enemies…" Russell quickly interrupted them, then turned his gaze to Karoso and Elizabeth. "Can we talk about it now? What really happened…"

Everyone’s eyes turned to the two of them; they also wanted to know how magical this adventure was.

……

One hour later.

"So that’s how it is…" Celica nodded.

The two of them shared their experiences, excluding the matter of Karoso, the God of War, and only mentioning that Tige did it by himself.

No one doubted them, as Neymar sending divine power across eras was a bit shocking.

"You don’t understand anything. Can you explain what happened to those two?" Minaret glared at Celica.

"Then you explain," Celica said with a cold smile.

"Well… this time and this place are very special, so it triggered something interesting…" Minaret explained. "Actually, the history you visited is blank."

"Blank history?" Karoso was taken aback. "What does that mean?"

"Our history is linear, but there is a gap in this section, and no one knows what happened then, not even the fate of this world," Minaret explained. "This blank will cause some disruption in the laws of the world, so the fate line used a power we completely don’t understand to send you back and complete this part of history."

"Speak more clearly; the truth of that battle has hidden the whole world."

"Time cannot be reversed; we cannot change the past. Otherwise, whoever had the power could just travel back and crush the enemy in their cradle, right?"

"Completing history does not fall within this irreversible time. It’s like a painting that has a missing piece; you fill it in."

"As for why you were chosen, that is not something I can know."

"So that’s how it is…" Karoso realized suddenly.

Bullet comment did not know the reason either; it was relying on Minaret’s knowledge to explain.

"We are here because of those two children. There seems to be an unknown force that wants to use this short blank time, to take over Neymar or Sophia’s body and complete the descent of a god." Celica added, "This mystery is beyond our ability to solve."

"Fortunately, ‘Hunger’ was slain by Captain Tige…" Karoso said softly.

"Well, the problem now is…" Celica’s gaze fell on the Black Pearl.

Elizabeth felt a tightness in her heart; she did not want the Black Pearl to sink again.

Celica stretched and said, "Hmm, an old ship has appeared in the Forbidden Sea. There are two eighth-tier chief officers on board, and the captain’s strength is probably beyond measure. They helped us defeat the Silent Mary on their way, and then they disappeared without a trace…"

"We can’t jump to conclusions without clear information; if they are doing bad things, we will issue a wanted notice!"
