Not far from the battle zone, shrouded in sea fog, a massive Marine warship lay silently, like a colossal beast.
Marine Rear Admiral Viktor stood at the bridge's observation window, his fingertips caressing the metal casing of his binoculars. The scene through his binoculars, with water columns exploding like festive fireworks, brought a bloodthirsty grin to his lips.
"Report! Red Hawk Andy has breached Skull Bay's defenses and has now boarded Sabrino's warship!" The messenger's voice trembled.
Viktor licked his cracked lips, his left eye, scarred across, twitched slightly—a souvenir from his pursuit of 'Bloody Hand' Rogers a year ago. In that battle, he used an entire merchant ship full of civilians as bait to gain the chance to bombard the pirate ship.
"Have the sniper team prepare Sea Stone net bullets," He rotated his binoculars, watching Andy's speedboat smash through the deck of Sabrino's flagship, "When they're both gravely wounded..."
The adjutant gripped his saber tightly: "Yes! Rear Admiral Viktor! But Rear Admiral, Sabrino has already become the King of Skull Bay..."
"Do you think I don't know that?" Viktor suddenly grabbed the adjutant's throat, pressing him against the cold observation window, "What I want is a World Government headline—Marine Rear Admiral Viktor Annihilates the 'West Blue Dual Evils'!"
The adjutant looked at the frenzied Viktor with terror in his eyes, trembling uncontrollably.
The surrounding Marines dared not make any move.
————
On Sabrino's flagship.
The moment he stored his speedboat into his spatial storage, a long blade, nearly two meters in length and emitting a chilling gleam, appeared in his hand.
This was none other than the Demon Blade Zhu Chi!
The surrounding guards, seeing this, their faces instantly widened with terror, their legs uncontrollably giving way. They instinctively retreated repeatedly, as if Andy was a demon crawled out of hell, and a single step closer would drag them into an endless abyss.
Sabrino's Marine boots sank deep into the shattered deck, each step kicking up wood splinters.
He looked terrified, the jewel-encrusted flintlock in his hand spitting flames wildly, accompanied by his hoarse shouts: "Ah ah ah ah! Die! Red Hawk Andy!!!"
Specially made Sea Stone bullets exploded around Andy, sparking fire, but Andy's figure was like a ghost, the bullets utterly unable to touch him in the slightest.
Andy's figure approached like lightning, Sabrino's pupils rapidly contracting, as if about to burst from fear.
Zhu Chi emitted a chilling aura, every ripple like a drumbeat on Sabrino's nerves.
"Do you know?" Andy's voice drifted in the wind, shifting left and right, Zhu Chi's scabbard hitting his waist, making a crisp sound that, in this tense atmosphere, was like a death knell. "A year ago, when I used a sniper rifle to blow up Duke (Bones)'s five warships..."
Before he finished speaking, a flash of blade light streaked across like lightning, so fast that one couldn't even blink.
Sabrino's right golden shoulder guard snapped cleanly, followed by blood gushing out like a fountain, spilling onto the shattered deck. His right arm, along with the flintlock, fell heavily to the ground with a dull thud.
"Ugh ah!!!" Sabrino's scream pierced the sky, his voice full of pain and despair.
Andy didn't pause for a moment, instantly closing in with his blade, like a swift leopard.
After Zhu Chi's blade was stained with blood, it seemed like an awakened beast, turning completely into its original crimson appearance. The blood beads on the blade shimmered with an eerie light under the sunlight.
Sabrino staggered backward, and in his panic, he suddenly pulled a guard in front of him to block.
The guard hadn't even let out a full cry before Zhu Chi's sharp blade descended. Only a mournful scream was heard, accompanied by the sound of flesh tearing. The guard's body was instantly cut in half, internal organs and blood splattering everywhere.
"...I never thought of letting you Skull Bay off. Skull Bay is doomed by me!" Andy flicked the blood beads from his blade, the crimson blade patterns glowing like molten lava, as if narrating endless killing intent.
"You... I..." Sabrino looked at Andy in disbelief, his eyes filled with terror.
His remaining left hand trembled, trying to reach for his waist, but his body wouldn't obey, until his last bit of consciousness saw the neat incision at his waist and the gushing blood.
It turned out that he, too, like that guard, had been cut in half by Andy...
Finally, Sabrino, with eyes full of unwillingness and terror, his two halves of his body fell heavily onto the deck, dying with his eyes wide open.

"Run!"
"King Sabrino was killed by Red Hawk!"
"W-w-w, help!"
"Set sail, escape quickly!"
Seeing Sabrino cut in half by Andy, the fleet of seven warships instantly erupted into chaos.
The crew members shrieked in terror, some scurrying around with their heads in their hands, others frantically rushing to the control room, wanting to start the warships and escape this terrifying place.
"You dare to challenge me with just this much skill!" Andy exuded a chilling aura. He gripped Zhu Chi, charging into the crowd like a god of slaughter.
In an instant, tearing screams and the sound of sharp blades cutting into flesh intertwined, ceaseless.
Blood flowed on the deck, gathering into small streams, flowing over the ship's side into the sea.
The other warships tried to escape, but their bulky bodies seemed even slower in their panic, utterly unable to get away quickly.
Andy moved freely through the crowd, finishing off one warship, then instantly leaping onto another. Wherever he went, it was a scene of carnage.

...
"Attack!"
In the distance, from the thick, inky sea fog, Rear Admiral Viktor's excited, almost crazed roar suddenly rang out.
This sound penetrated layers of mist, carrying a hint of impatient greed and madness, like the howl of a hungry wolf discovering its prey, echoing across the open sea.
The next moment!
Hundreds of well-trained snipers, like long-dormant hunters, uniformly raised their guns, their dark muzzles aimed in Andy's direction.
In an instant, the sound of triggers pulling rose and fell, dense bullets carrying whistling wind, like a swarm of deadly bees, rapidly rushing towards Andy.
Just a moment later, countless gigantic Sea Stone nets, with heavy whistling sounds, covered the airspace above Andy from different angles.
Those Sea Stone nets seemed like tentacles extended by giant monsters from the deep sea, completely obscuring the sky above Andy.
At first glance, Andy seemed to be in a desperate situation, surrounded by firepower, and covered by Sea Stone nets from above. It seemed he had no wings to escape.
"Hmph!"
A cold, disdainful snort came from Andy's mouth.
He stopped his hacking motions, slowly raised his head, and looked in the direction of the Marine warships. At this moment, his entire body exuded a chilling killing intent.
"I originally planned to deal with these Skull Bay trash, then deal with you, but now it seems I'll have to take care of you first!" Andy's voice was low and hoarse, carrying endless killing intent.
"Zhu Chi: Sky Split!"
Andy let out a low growl. The long blade Zhu Chi in his hand, swung with his ultimate strength and speed, cut a crimson arc, slashing towards the sky.
"Screech—"
A sharp sound tore through the sky, as if ripping space itself.
Above Andy, the Sea Stone net that was about to fall was instantly torn open by this slash, creating a narrow gap.
At the edge of the gap, the threads of the Sea Stone net were still trembling slightly, seemingly quivering from the terrifying power just unleashed.
"This move really didn't work, but he thinks he knows who I am. Bring the warships closer!" Viktor saw through his binoculars that the Sea Stone net had no effect on Andy and instantly roared frantically.
