<><><><><><>

From Byakuya stepping out towards Harry to successfully killing him, less than five minutes had passed. 

But in these five minutes, the situation underwent a complete upheaval. The mood of everyone was like riding a roller coaster, full of ups and downs.

Before, it was Vaughan's side in ambush and Harry's side rising, but now it had become Vaughan's side rising and Harry's side falling.

Seeing Byakuya kill Harry in a matter of seconds, even the Blood Wolf Pirates, known for their bloodthirstiness and cruelty, couldn't help but gasp in shock.

They cursed inwardly, "Can't Harry investigate properly first?" 

"Now he's implicating us!" 

"Serves him right to get killed!" The Blood Wolf Pirates knew deep down that with Harry dead, they might not stand a chance against Byakuya's strength alone. 

With Vaughan still around, going up against him would only lead to certain death.

Seeing the unfavorable situation, the Blood Wolf Pirates didn't hesitate for a moment. 

They immediately ordered loudly, "Quick, turn around, and get out of here!" 

"Yes... yes!" 

"Quick, turn around!" Even the Blood Wolf Pirates were terrified, let alone their crew members.

As the ship approached the shore, they made a sudden 180-degree turn and accelerated away in the opposite direction. 

Earlier, they had hoped the ship would go faster to land sooner, slaughter the Marines, and plunder the money. 

Now, they wished the ship had wings to fly them farther away from that dangerous man as soon as possible.

If you don't drop dead from fright on the spot, you're considered mentally tough. 

On the coast, the soldiers who had stood behind Harry were all scared speechless, not daring to breathe. 

At this moment, an ethereal voice suddenly sounded in Byakuya's mind. 

[Received 1 point of World Source Energy]

"???"

"Can it be like this?" Byakuya was stunned. He hadn't expected that killing trash like Harry would also earn him World Source Energy. 

It was truly a pleasant surprise! Byakuya immediately shifted his gaze to those betrayed soldiers.

Lieutenant Commander Harry only gave 1 point of World Source Energy, and these soldiers combined probably don't have much World Source Energy either. 

But even a mosquito, no matter how small, is still meat! For such traitors, Byakuya had no psychological burden when it came to killing them. 

After all, this was precious World Source Energy!

The over 300 Marines 'surrounded' by Byakuya seemed to sense the killing intent emanating from him. 

Coupled with the terror of Byakuya's strength, they were even more frightened, unable to stand steadily. 

Just as Byakuya was about to take action, he heard Vaughan shout, "Not good, that guy Blood Wolf wants to run!"

Byakuya turned his head to see the pirate ship getting farther and farther away. 

Normally, Byakuya wouldn't bother chasing after the Blood Wolf Pirates if they ran. 

But since killing also earned him World Source Energy, he couldn't let the Blood Wolf Pirates escape. "Captain Vaughan, keep an eye on these scoundrels colluding with the pirates, don't let them escape."

"I'll handle the Blood Wolf." Vaughan nodded, 

"That's no problem, but the Blood Wolf is several miles away from us now. If we set sail to chase them, we probably won't catch up, right?" 

After witnessing Byakuya's strength, Vaughan felt much more relieved. Byakuya was no longer the child he needed to worry about.

Byakuya chuckled, "That's simple." Leaning forward, he exerted force with his legs, then shot up like a bullet, soaring into the air. 

As Byakuya rose, the ground trembled slightly, and waves rippled on the nearby sea. 

"This kid's strength is ridiculously strong!" Vaughan stared blankly at Byakuya's disappearing figure.

Then he thought again and pondered, "Why is this kid's strength so strong? Could it be the training method used by Byakuya?" 

"When I get back, I'll give it a try and promote this method, see if we can also cultivate a few strong ones."

The Blood Wolf looked back at the increasingly distant Squall Island, gradually feeling relieved. 

"Damn it, I didn't expect there would be such a strong person in the Marines. Luckily, I ran fast!" 

The Blood Wolf said with relief on his face. The first mate, still trembling, said, 

"Yeah! Who would have thought there would be such a fierce person on Squall Island?"

"I went for nothing, didn't gain any benefits, and almost lost my life! I've been at sea for so 3 months, when have I ever suffered such a loss?" 

A subordinate stepped forward and asked, "Boss, where are we going now?" 

"Just find a nearby island, I'm full of fire now and need to vent!" The Blood Wolf impatiently waved his hand, his face full of uncontrollable madness. 

"He...he's chasing us!!!" At this moment, a subordinate suddenly let out a chilling scream. 

Dozens of pirates screamed like frightened girls, their faces pale. If you didn't know any better, you'd think they were innocent victims.

The Blood Wolf looked back at the sky, his pupils shrinking slightly. There was a small shadow blocking the direct sunlight in the sky. 

Upon closer inspection, that shadow turned out to be Byakuya, who had killed Harry just three seconds ago. 

Even the Blood Wolf, who had killed countless people, felt extremely frightened after witnessing such a swift death.

The Blood Wolf immediately roared, 

"Damn it! That kid dares to catch up! Notify the helmsman to change direction quickly and increase the speed to the maximum!" 

"Quick! Quick! Change direction!" The entire ship instantly changed direction and began moving rapidly to the right. 

Seeing this, Byakuya sneered, "Run? Not a single one can escape!"

As he descended, Byakuya heavily stepped on the water's surface, causing a water pillar several meters high to erupt from the sea. 

The entire person soared into the air again. 

A few seconds later, Byakuya landed at the bow of the ship with a loud "bang," almost capsizing the entire ship. 

The members of the Blood Wolf Pirate Crew watched in horror as Byakuya appeared, and a terrifying sense of despair eroded their rationality.

With each step Byakuya took, the pirates retreated in panic, their faces filled with fear. 

Each step felt like it was crushing their hearts, leaving them trembling in fear. "D-Don't come any closer!" "If you come any closer, we'll fight back!"

The Blood Wolf pretended to remain calm and said, 

"What exactly do you want to do? I haven't attacked any of you. Why are you relentlessly pursuing us?" Byakuya smiled, 

"Because you are all valuable treasures!" 

"Treasures?"

The Blood Wolf's eyes lit up, feeling a pang of pain. 

"I'm willing to give you all the treasures on this ship, just please spare our lives!" 

In the Blood Wolf's eyes, preserving a life was more important than anything else. 

As long as they were alive, they could always reclaim the lost beli. They could even seek revenge for today's grudge.
