Ten minutes later, in the hall of a simple and spacious stone building on the island, Ding Ning looked with some surprise at the man in front of him wearing a pirate captain's uniform and a black beard, playing with an anchor weighing at least a hundred kilograms in his hand.

Edward looked him up and down.

It was so unexpected. He originally thought that the legendary pirate king must be a black man, but he didn't expect that he would be a white man with blond hair and blue eyes.

What surprised him even more was that this pirate king was not an ordinary person, but a warrior, a late-stage Saint Martial Realm warrior with considerable strength.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this strength that Edward had enough confidence. Even if the minister told him with awe in his ear that this young wizard from the mysterious East had the ability to control Kraken,

It only made Edward look slightly surprised, but did not reveal the slightest fear.

"Please take a seat."

Although Edward didn't seem to be afraid of this Eastern wizard of unknown origin, his attitude obviously changed slightly. He withdrew his scrutinizing gaze and slightly extended his hand to signal.

"There's no need to sit down. I'm very pressed for time. Let's talk straight to the point."

Ding Ning stretched out his hand to stop the chief who was about to move a chair for him, and said calmly and calmly.

I don't know if Edward did it intentionally or if he has always been a dictator. In the hall of Novotel, he was the only one sitting on a large and high stone chair. All his subordinates stood respectfully on the left and right sides.

Not even qualified to sit.

Edward frowned slightly, stared at Ding Ning with a pair of azure eyes, and said coldly: "Do you know how much of an honor it is to allow me to give you a seat?"

He is not very tall, only about 1.8 meters tall. Sitting on a stone chair to talk to Ding Ning, he has to raise his head. This makes him feel like he needs to look up at the other person, which of course makes him feel very uncomfortable.

Ding Ning smiled disdainfully: "A pirate leader who can only hide here and there like a rat in the gutter really thinks of himself as a person."

"Be bold!"

"presumptuous!"

"Damn yellow-skinned monkey, how dare you be rude to the boss."

A man with an Asian face next to Edward yelled angrily, and all the pirate leaders who were qualified to enter this hall raised their guns and aimed at Ding Ning, shouting and cursing.

When the minister and the chief heard this, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and they groaned secretly in their hearts. They opened their mouths but did not know what to say, and fell into a dilemma.

"Yellow-skinned monkey? Are you talking about me?"

Before Edward could say anything, Ding Ning's face darkened, and he reached out to the pirate leader who called him a yellow-skinned monkey and scratched the void, and then shook it gently.

With a bang, the pirate leader's head shattered like a broken watermelon.

This scene instantly stunned everyone. Even Edward's expression changed drastically. He looked at Ding Ning's pupils shrinking violently and looked at this delicate and thin oriental man again.

"Hex, he used hex to kill Nagita, shoot, shoot the damn wizard."

A big-nosed pirate who had a good relationship with the pirate leader whose head was shot trembled all over, roared in fear and anger, and before he finished speaking, he pulled the trigger.

Ta-ta-ta!

The AK47 spewed angry flames and fired at Ding Ning crazily.

"stop."

The minister and chief were shocked and shouted in unison.

But unfortunately it was too late. Big Nose took the lead and triggered a chain reaction like pushing dominoes. Fear and anger made the pirates who were extremely fierce at heart pull the trigger without hesitation.

The trigger was pulled, and the deafening sound of gunshots instantly resounded throughout the hall, filled with a thick smell of gunpowder smoke.

The two of them looked at each other and saw the look of fear and despair in each other's eyes. They did not believe that an awesome man who could control Kraken would die so easily.

It would be fine if he was really killed, but what if he couldn't be killed? I'm afraid all the pirates here will be bloody purged.

Edward squinted his eyes and stared at Ding Ning, who stood firm in the hail of bullets, even with a faint smile on his face, and suddenly felt a strong uneasiness in his heart.

Sure enough, the next moment, he suddenly stood up, his eyes widened, and he watched in horror as the densely packed bullets suddenly suspended in the air half a meter away from Ding Ning, forming a "bullet net" composed of bullets.

"It's rude to come and not reciprocate!"

Ding Ning's clear voice sounded calmly, and the horrified Edward's soul emerged, shouting to show mercy, and his whole body turned into an afterimage and suddenly stood in front of his men.

Puff puff puff!

The bullets suspended in the air followed Ding Ning's words and shot towards the pirates like a sudden storm. Edward's face was solemn, and he waved his hands in the air. In the blink of an eye, a transparent air wall visible to the naked eye was formed in front of him. All the bullets

Pop-pop-pop embedded in the air wall.

"Yeah! Long live Blackbeard."

The pirate leaders who had narrowly escaped death came to their senses in shock and cheered for Blackbeard with cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

But Edward didn't show any joy, his face turned red, and his eyes looking at Ding Ning were full of gratitude.

Just like a person knows when drinking water, the pirates couldn't see the mystery, but how could he, the person involved, not know that those bullets were deliberately stopped by Ding Ning, and were not really blocked by the wall of air he had gathered in a hurry

Yes, this has already given him enough face to prevent him from embarrassing himself in front of his subordinates.

Now that he had shocked Edward, Ding Ning had no intention of being rude and sat down directly on the only stone chair in the hall with his hands behind his back.

"Baga!"

The Chinese-faced pirate suddenly opened his mouth and cursed angrily, and suddenly pulled out a sword from his waist. He held the sword in both hands, and with the shining light of the sword, he slashed at Ding Ning with lightning speed.

"Village chief, stop."

Edward's expression changed drastically and he shouted sternly.

Ding Ning didn't even raise his head, didn't even look at the fourth leader of the village, he just stretched out his hand and flicked his fingers lightly.

With a snap, the tachi, which was clearly made through countless efforts and was broken with cold light. Half of the blade fell to the ground. Just as the tip of the blade was facing down, it penetrated the stone ground with a pop, and only half of the blade was exposed, trembling on the ground.

of shaking.

The village chief held the half-severed blade tightly, and stepped back a few steps before he stopped. His face flushed for a while, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. When he looked at Ding Ning, his eyes were full of horror and fear.

"Bastard, who told you to attack my distinguished guest?"

Edward cursed angrily, stepped forward and gave the village chief a loud slap in the face while waving his hand.

The village chief covered his face but remained silent, showing no resentment or anger. He bowed deeply at a 90-degree angle to express his apology.

Because he knew that Edward was trying to save him. As the strongest warrior in the entire pirate group except for the leader, even if his eyesight was poor, he could still see clearly at this moment. The young man in front of him was terrifyingly powerful.

Even Edward had to submit.

After all, he knew very well how hard his tachi was. Even if Edward wanted to break it, it would not be that easy. But the young man in front of him just flicked his fingers and flicked the knife into two pieces. This kind of power was definitely not

Edward is comparable.

"Very huggy

Sorry, distinguished sir, I would like to express my most sincere apologies to you on behalf of my rude subordinates. I hope that you, your lord, will be able to forgive their recklessness."

Edward was a man who was very aware of current affairs. After seeing Ding Ning's strength, he immediately changed his attitude. Like an elegant gentleman, he put his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly in greeting.

"Ignorance is not a crime. Let's leave this matter alone, but I don't hope there will be a next time, otherwise... hum!"

Ding Ning said calmly, but at the end of his words, he raised his hand and patted the only stone table in the hall.

They were just a group of insignificant pirates, not worthy of his fuss. Besides, this time they came to ask for Edward, so he would naturally give up. Of course, if Edward didn't know what he was doing, he wouldn't mind taking more drastic measures.

Therefore, in order to avoid trouble, it is still necessary to use some means to completely frighten these rebellious guys.

Wow!

Just when everyone found that the stone table had not changed and was baffled, the stone table suddenly collapsed without warning and turned into rubble.

Edward frowned slightly. Although he knew that Ding Ning was demonstrating, he didn't think there was anything extraordinary about this method. If he wanted to, he could easily break the stone table.

But then, he found that the eyes of the village chief, who had always been known as a martial arts idiot, suddenly widened, staring straight at the pile of broken stones without blinking, his face was filled with unbelievable horror, and he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.

, turned around and looked towards the rubble pile.

This sight was so incredible that Edward shuddered and his expression changed drastically. When he looked at Ding Ning again, his eyes were full of respect and awe.

There was no other reason than that he did not need any tools to measure the pile of gravel. With his eyesight, he could see that the stones were all exactly the same size, and the error would never exceed 0.0001 millimeter.

This is second to none. The most horrifying thing is that, without exception, these broken stones are all in the shape of hexagonal rhombus diamonds. They don't look like they were photographed on a gravel table, but they look like they were carefully carved by a skilled craftsman.

Crafts.

With this control over power and peak control, Edward asked himself that even if he practiced hard for a hundred years, he would never be able to reach this level. If he was still a little dissatisfied before, but at this moment, the only thing left was

I was so filled with awe that I never dared to have any other thoughts.

Sensing the change in Edward's eyes, Ding Ning nodded secretly with satisfaction. The desired effect was achieved. It seemed that the next negotiation could proceed more smoothly. He immediately ordered without any doubt: "Edward, let them all retreat."

Come on, I have something to talk to you about."

"Yes, sir."

Edward didn't have any rebellious mentality. He responded respectfully and ordered in a deep voice to his subordinates: "All of you, stand down."

"The boss..."

A group of pirates were extremely loyal and shouted anxiously upon hearing this, fearing that Ding Ning would be detrimental to the master.

"Back off, do you want me to say it a second time?"

Edward's face darkened and he shouted sharply.

The prestige built up over the years is no joke. No matter how unwilling the pirate men were, they could only retreat in anger.

On the contrary, the ministers and chiefs who had seen Ding Ning's methods thought wisely. Not only did they take the lead to go out, but they also kindly comforted the worried pirate leaders: "With your methods, if you really want to harm the master, are we here?"

Don’t worry, you are a good person and you won’t kill the boss for no reason.”
