Chapter 563 Desperate Situation

Chapter 563 Desperate Situation (Previous chapter has been revised)

The enormous, jet-black arm seized Jax's mangled body and, amidst the latter's ecstatic prayers, crushed the demigod to pieces.

"puff!"

Blood gushed out, seeping from between the fingers, but before it could flow down, it was completely absorbed by the enormous black arm. The surface of this arm was black and sticky, covered with strange protrusions. Some were skulls, some were three-dimensional eyes, and some were tongues with sharp teeth.

With the appearance of this arm, the entire sky above the island became completely dark.

Indulgence, chaos, evil, hatred, distortion, terror... spiritual warnings screamed wildly in everyone's hearts. The moment that cursed arm descended upon the real world, the corruption spread like a storm, plunging all the pirates who witnessed it into despair and madness!

That was none other than the leader of the "Rose School," the "Divine Evil" Siea!

Legend has it that it was conceived by an evil god and was born as a Sequence 1 angel—a twisted being!

"How is that possible!"

Inside the "Black Emperor," the "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette pressed her finger to her brow, releasing a hidden "Eye of Secrets." The invisible eye flew out of the cabin, glanced directly at her arm, and exploded instantly, causing blood and tears to stream from her own eyes.

Bernadette, however, no longer cared about her injured eye. A rare look of unease crossed her face, as if she had witnessed something utterly terrifying. She cried out, "This isn't a projection, it's His true form!"

This bad news weighed heavily on everyone present.

The original entity of Sequence 1 actually descended directly here?

According to previous information, this Si'a, as a "divine abomination," is in an extremely unstable state. He always entrusts his true form to the spirit world, and only at certain critical moments will he project his image through the spirit world to exert influence.

Now, I don't know what's gotten into Searth that made it happen in reality!

"Everyone, leave immediately!"

Nast, the "King of the Five Seas," made his judgment without hesitation. His voice echoed throughout the island, and his power activated across the entire island, slowing the spread of the curse: "Don't look up, don't fight them, get back to your ships as soon as possible, and get away from here!"

Inside Black Lake Island.

One after another, enormous, jet-black arms emerged from the sky, each over ten meters long, carrying the ultimate curse and filth. They greedily wriggled down, seizing the fleshy trees and draining their energy.

At first, these protruding arms appeared somewhat withered, as if they had suffered some kind of injury, resulting in a significant drop in their spirituality at the primordial level. However, as the eerie entities on the surface of the arms thirstily devoured the spiritually rich blood, their condition seemed to recover somewhat, making them even more eager for the pirates' bodies.

Then these arms began to move, grabbing and devouring the fleeing pirates one after another, like a hungry baby picking up cookies from a plate and putting them into its mouth.

"You should feel honored."

"The Blood General" stopped fleeing and revealed his true form, saying to the other pirate generals chasing him, "Because you are about to be devoured by Prince Siea and become part of the great Him!"

His laughter was wild and unrestrained. "Celebrate! Rejoice! Contribute to the recovery of 'God's Abomination's' injuries!"

It was all a conspiracy by the "Rose School," who deliberately created this disaster in order to heal Søren's injuries.

The souls and bodies of pirates are filled with sin and depravity, and many great pirates are extraordinary beings. Their flesh and souls are excellent tonics for "divine evil".

"Just ignore him!"

Although furious, "Admiral Twilight" remained rational and said to the other generals, "Didn't you hear what the King of the Five Seas said? It would be best to leave quickly!"

The other generals, though dissatisfied, had no choice but to agree. They abandoned the laughing Senor and quickly gathered their men, attempting to return to their ships.

The docks at Black Lake Island were in complete chaos, with pirates either crowding at the exit or fighting over ownership of their ships. The generals, however, had a plan; they quickly led their fleet away from the docks and into the open sea.

The dangerous island was already behind them, and the boundless sea lay before them.

Is that safe...?

"Swish, swish!"

A terrifying, pitch-black darkness rapidly intertwined, spreading down from the sky, viscous and heavy, like an inverted bowl, quickly engulfing the entire island and the surrounding sea. The ship that had traveled the furthest collided with the black barrier, swallowing the ship and its inhabitants completely.

The pirates who had escaped to the water by boat were disheartened upon seeing this scene.

"Boom! Boom!"

The pirates, unwilling to give up, fired cannons at the wall, which only provoked a fierce reaction from it, as a tentacle reached out and grabbed them. The others had no choice but to give up, stuck in a dilemma.

"I haven't been able to sense the spirit world since just now."

At this moment, the "Hell General" revealed another piece of despairing news: "That is to say, sending messengers to call for help..."

Or perhaps methods like spirit travel are ineffective.

"Whoosh..."

The submarine "Vice Admiral" surfaced nearby, and judging from his gloomy expression, it was easy to deduce that the barrier must have extended below the surface, completely enveloping the area.

"Hurry up, come over here!"

Just then, a massive black ship attracted the attention of everyone at sea; it was the Death's Announcement of the "Undying King," Agarito. The king sat regally on the deck, his pale face radiating unprecedented majesty and brilliance.

"Creak..."

The cannons on his ship fired eerie blue flames that struck the barrier, burning a wide hole that allowed the bright sunlight to shine through.

"Go this way!"

Agarito shouted, keeping the flames burning to keep the cave entrance open, "As the king of the sea, it is my duty to open a passage for your survival... Hurry up and leave!"

Many pirates were overjoyed.

"Praise be to the Immortal King!"

They cheered and steered their ships toward the cave that represented hope. But many cautious pirates, including the pirate general, hesitated and did not rush forward immediately—and as it turned out, they were wise.

"Hahahaha!"

Just as the pirates were about to rush towards freedom, the "Death Note" suddenly erupted in a high-pitched laugh. The entire crew simultaneously activated their cannons, unleashing a torrent of fire that engulfed the entire ship. The pirates screamed in agony amidst the roar of the cannons, sinking to the bottom of the sea with their vessel.

The capricious "Oathbreaker" has betrayed the pirates once again!

The pirates were in despair.

Behind them were giant, man-eating hands; in front of them were impassable walls; and the king of the sea was always ready to kill them... Could it be that all of them who participated in the pirate tournament were going to die here, becoming part of the ritual?

Alger didn't think so.

He hid in the captain's cabin, seizing his last chance, and bowed his head in prayer.
