Among the people who came to the capital that Higashinohara had killed, whether they were the judges of the Judgment Department or the three elders from the Nine Celestial Clan families.
In their portraits afterwards, they were all very secretive about the only human judge in the Judgment Division in front of them.
There is no doubt that, except for the old man who has sat in the Adjudication Division for decades and has not taken action and is indifferent to the world, this is the most powerful man among the eleven Adjudicators in the Adjudication Division who are currently responsible for handling external affairs.
Higashinohara knew it very clearly.
From the moment when he and the Adjudication Division were completely locked in a fight to the death, sooner or later he would face the most powerful man among the eleven Adjudicators of the Adjudication Division.
Especially after he killed the inquisitor under the opponent's command by chance on the night of Congressman Kenneth's dinner, this feeling suddenly became stronger!
Even so, Higashinohara obviously did not expect that this moment would come so quickly.
Coming soon today!
Even just now, the question that Higashinohara was thinking about was:
——If Pelos, the sword demon under the pirate group of Queen Antigone, the Four Kings of the West Sea, can trigger the mission of "Guilty Manual".
With his attitude of treating human lives like pigs and dogs, how many sin points will he provide himself?
Unexpectedly, when that man arrived unexpectedly, the sword demon Pelos didn't even have the "qualification" to trigger it.
[Guilty Manual] directly and extremely "intelligently" locked onto this second judge from the Judgment Department.
Demon knife!
Pusso Wiseman.
The opponent's sin value of 8.5 stars is indeed the man with the highest sin rating that Higashinohara has encountered so far. When converted into attribute points, he has a temporary attribute of 85 points.
Facing such a powerful enemy.
Still need to hesitate?
Higashinohara took a long breath in his heart, and immediately added these 85 huge temporary attribute points to [Agility], which he had mastered most since he came to this world, and also had the highest value at present.
[Agility 90+85→175]
Although Higashinohara's various attributes cannot be as good as below the 70-point watershed after reaching the 70-point watershed, "10 attribute points" corresponding to "one level" can be directly and roughly converted into the level of this world's ability system.
However, after Higashinohara reached 70 attribute points, although there was no clear conversion, he could personally feel the subtle differences through his opponents' reference in battles with different temporary attribute point bonuses.
Judging from the review of his battles with top experts at different levels from eighth level to ninth level again and again under the temporary attribute point bonus.
After the attribute points reach 70, converted into the ability level in this world, every 10 attribute points corresponds to only a small improvement.
For example, 80 attribute points is 70+10, which is equivalent to level 1 of level 7.
Then similarly we can get:
At present, Higashinohara's [Agility] attribute has received a huge temporary increase of 85 points and has been raised to 175 attribute points. After the entire conversion, he currently has a combat power equivalent to "9th stage 1st stage".
——This is also the reason why Higashinohara chose [Agility] to add points.
Only [Agility], which has the highest current attribute, can directly jump to a combat power level equivalent to the ninth level with an 85-point bonus.
However, Higashinohara felt vaguely in his heart,
Perhaps when I truly understand the power of higher-level [rules], the level of abilities that attribute points can transform may undergo a qualitative change.
After all, the current conversion rules only changed after he spent a night watching the cherry blossoms and understood the speed field [Phantom Cherry Blossom Killing Chaos].
Of course, Higashinohara's unique "attribute points" are used to convert the ability levels in this world. In the final analysis, they are just a theoretical "value".
In the unpredictable actual battle, Higashinohara did not even have his own [rules] in the past, and could only "resist" the influence of "order" through unlimited rules under "abnormal conditions".
Notice.
is "resistance",
Rather than a real "confrontation".
But the truly cruel and strange battle is not like a card game where the winner can be determined by showing the level of abilities of both parties.
Unless it is an absolutely crushing force at different levels,
As long as the gap between them is not that big, ability level is not the only "winner".
The ability user's personal life-and-death fighting experience, their mastery of their own abilities, and their sense and control of the unpredictable battle situation...
All three factors can turn everything upside down in an instant.
And the existence of Higashinohara,
Definitely the biggest alien in the world.
The "Guilty Manual" in his mind allows him to possess not only the strongest "Attribute", but also other different auxiliary attributes and various other abilities.
As long as we seize the fleeting opportunity at the right time, these different abilities can become the "fourth comeback factor" in addition to the "three factors" mentioned above.
——That’s why Higashinohara had the opportunity to save the day when he repeatedly encountered powerful enemies.
If a life-and-death fight is regarded as a gamble,
So Higashinohara's identity is definitely not that of a "hustler". After all, a cheater must also abide by the rules of the gambling game.
The cards played are all cards that can only be played according to the rules.
If I have to use one identity to describe it,
I am afraid that only the word "magician" is the most appropriate - he can always conjure up "hole cards" out of thin air that are not within the rules of the gambling table.
But this time today,
Looking at the unexpected man outside the warehouse door, Higashinohara felt inexplicably that even if his "trump cards" were played out, they might not be that effective.
So...is it okay to ask for assistance outside of the "gambling table"?
For a time, Higashinohara, who triggered the task to gain attribute points, did not "move forward bravely" for the first time.
Instead, he quietly took two steps back and blended in with the people around him who were surrounded by the Dawn Revolutionary Army and representatives from various countries who were full of astonishment and fear.
I shouldn’t be that conspicuous, right?
Higashinohara pondered in his heart.
...
The entrance of the warehouse factory.
Sword Demon Peros narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the man with delicate features and a star-shaped scar on the side of his face who walked in from the door.
He felt the coercion released by the opponent that was completely different from his sword power, and the "different feeling" that he felt as a "same kind".
Pelos frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, then raised his head and looked at the man in front of him, suddenly realizing why the other man gave him this "strange feeling of being of the same kind".
Both of them regard human life as nothing more than an ant.
But the sword demon Pelos didn't hurt the ants because he stepped over them. This power was too difficult to control, so he could just kill them once and for all.
The smile on the corner of the mouth of the man in front of him seemed to be always mixed with madness and murderous intent, but he was just as different as him.
He is the kind of man who will squat down when encountering a grasshopper ant and study the opponent's tentacles, branches and leaves with great interest, dismembering them piece by piece, and finally harvesting only the parts he likes for his collection.
He has only heard of one such "similar person" in the years he has been traveling in the Western Sea, and that is the "Collector" who has made countless pirates talk about it in the Western Sea.
Of course, some people call him "Demon Sword".
But why did this man come here?
etc!
There seemed to be rumors a while ago that the inquisitor under the Second Judgment was locked and killed by a masked clown at a public dinner.
During this period, the entire city of Barton County and the United States of Tagos was under martial law largely because of that incident.
From this point of view, the reason why the other party appears at the dock warehouse in White Swan Harbor this time is largely because of the clown.
You can hear the implication of what the other person just said,
The "Tian Congyun Sword" in the hand of Hawk Udel, one of the four kings of the West Sea, seemed to have been cut off by the evil man in the Adjudication Department in front of him.
What grievances are there between them?
The members of the Queen Antigone Pirates represented by the Sword Demon Pelos came to the White Swan Harbor Pier in Barton County to help the Dawn Revolutionary Army achieve their goals. They should have an incompatible relationship with the Judgment Department under the Allied World Government.
But the problem is,
Now the idiot Simon Baldi, who was called the "Mentor of Dawn" in the Western Army of the Dawn Revolutionary Army, has been killed by a man in a clown mask.
Now that the second adjudicator of the Adjudication Division appears here, every representative from each country present counts.
Afterwards, the country represented behind it will definitely be liquidated, and the grand blueprint of the so-called "Federal State" will become a pie in a dream.
You can see it but you can't eat it.
Then does he still need to abide by the agreement and make enemies of the people in the Adjudication Department?
Can.
But it's not necessary.
From a personal point of view, since the "Sky Sword" Hawk Udel who just snatched the "Tian Congyun Sword" from him at the critical moment and the "Demon Sword" Second Judgment Division in front of him obviously have some old grievances that have not yet been settled.
.
In comparison, he is still more willing to join forces with the second judge of the "Demon Sword" to kill Hawke Udel first and get back the [Tian Congyun Sword] that he regards as a treasure.
From a risk perspective,
This also seems to be the wisest choice.
After all, there are too many legends about the "Collector" of the Advocate in the West Sea, and the opponent's strength has entered the ninth level a long time ago.
The strength is still unknown at this time.
On the other hand, not to mention that it is impossible for him to join forces with "Sky Sword" Hawk Udell, even if they join forces, I am afraid they have no chance to defeat this evil-faced man.
...
Thinking of this, the sword demon Pelos took a step forward and said calmly to the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman, "I didn't expect that the second judge of the Judgment Department would come here in person, but it looks like, today we should
Not an enemy."
The demon sword Pusuo Wiseman stood at the door with his hands behind his back and a carefree look on his face.
Hearing this, he seemed to have noticed the sword demon Peros standing there, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"Oh? Why?"
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
Sword Demon Pelos looked at the ‘Sky Sword’ Hawk Udel whose face was covered with a black cloth.
He seriously suggested:
"We, the Antigone Pirates, have no intention of causing trouble. If we join forces, I will ensure that I and my partners behind me and those outside White Swan Harbor leave quietly and will not cause any trouble to the Adjudication Division in performing its official duties."
The Western Army of the Dawn Revolutionary Army had failed this time. Naturally, he had no reason to worry about the frightened representatives of various countries behind him.
We can only let them live and die.
Unexpectedly, when Demon Saber Pusuo Wiseman heard his words, the corners of his mouth turned up a little more for no reason.
He looked at the sword demon Peros with a half-smile, and when the other party couldn't help but frown, he said with a smile:
"'Companions outside White Swan Harbor'? Haha, I think I have asked them to 'leave quietly' along the way."
As he spoke, Pusuo Wiseman, who had a leisurely expression with his hands behind his back, suddenly stretched out his right hand from behind, holding a slender silver silk thread in his hand.
But at this moment, the silver has turned into blood. Under the sun, it seems that you can still see the dripping blood slowly dripping along the silk thread to the ground.
The other end of the thread extends to the steps outside the warehouse, and seems to be involved in something...
Pusuo Wiseman smiled slightly at the sword demon Peros whose expression suddenly changed, and casually pulled his hand away, and a bloody thing was pulled in by the blood-colored thread.
Peng!
The thing hit the warehouse wall.
When the several members of the Queen Antigone Pirates following behind Sword Demon Pelosi saw this, their faces suddenly turned pale, and their eyes were filled with shock and fear.
That bloody thing... turned out to be the head of "Silk Demon" Jeffman, the battle captain of the Queen Antigone Pirates who was staying outside the warehouse.
That silver thread is his weapon.
Although this battle captain with outstanding appearance is rumored to be the mistress of Queen Pirates' Harley Antigone, he himself is also extremely tough.
Possessing the strength of the eighth and third levels.
Among the Queen Antigone Pirates, it can be said that apart from the captain Harley Antigone, there are only a few battle captains who are second only to the sword demon Pelosi.
But such an eighth-level demigod-level powerhouse,
He was actually killed so easily and silently by the man in front of him?!
even...
There is no sign or warning!
The bloody scene in front of her immediately made Sword Demon Pelosi feel wary.
After meeting for the first time, I finally had a more intuitive understanding of the strength of this legendary "collector" who made countless pirates in the West Sea talk about it.
powerful!
Very strong!
Even the most powerful he has ever seen in his life!
at the same time,
He knew more clearly in his heart,
If the opponent kills other people, the sword demon Pelos can still turn a blind eye.
As long as the man is happy, that's fine.
But Jeffman is different.
Although he is addicted to swords and has no interest in the scandalous rumors on the ship, and he has no interest in Jeffman and Queen Halle Antigone, this does not mean that he does not know what "human relations are".
Unless he betrayed the Queen Antigone Pirates, he would not be able to turn a blind eye to the scene in front of him.
Thinking of this,
Sword Demon Pelos couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Knowing that he and the other party had joined forces to get rid of the black cloth-blinded Hawk Udel's plan to regain the "Tian Cong Yun Sword", it was completely unfulfilled.
For the current plan, all he can think about is how to gain the maximum benefit from the chaos in front of him and how to get out of this "abyss of chaos".
The sword demon Pelos suddenly fell silent.
all of a sudden,
The atmosphere in the huge warehouse factory became extremely depressing and quiet due to the arrival of the man outside the door.
At this time, even Kailutu and others from the Mithril Society Execution Team could probably guess that this might be support from the Eagle Bureau after they reported the news.
But looking at the evil-looking man outside the door, they couldn't feel the slightest sense of security from this so-called "reinforcement".
Vice-captain Feilina didn't even have the slightest doubt that the other party didn't mind using that bloody thread to slit their throats when they felt like it.
In the midst of silence,
The blindfolded Hawk Udell suddenly took a step forward, his eyes that looked like something was staring at the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman through the black cloth:
"The person who killed me that night and broke my knife must be you."
Hearing these words that broke the silence,
The Second Judiciary Puso Wiseman, who was playing with the silver thread in his hand, did not even look at Hawke Udall... and turned a deaf ear to the question of the "No. 1 Swordsman in the West Sea".
His gaze passed through the crowd and landed on a pale clown mask behind the crowd. He lowered his eyelids slightly and stared at Jeffman's collection of bloody silver threads in his hand.
The corners of his lips were slightly raised,
In a voice that could be heard by everyone around him, he said to himself meaningfully, "A man who hides behind a woman will always be looked down upon..."
"Are you right? Mr. Clown."
In an instant, Higashinohara, who was trying hard to minimize his presence and blend into the crowd, trying to find an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to "do black boxing",
My feet suddenly stopped slightly!
He stopped,
He looked up at the other party quite naturally.
At this moment, the two people, who had already "known" each other's existence, met their eyes for the first time.
It's just not the same as before at first sight...
