man he once was. He is covered in blood and looks extremely disheveled.The cloak emblazoned with the mark "66" on its back seemed to undulate as if alive, spreading out from his body.It seems you've a..."You... killed him..."
A naked woman, covered in scars, stared in horror at the fallen Celestial being, her face pale and voice trembling as she watched the blood spreading around him.
She only felt that everything before her was extremely unreal, as if she were dreaming.
"You... killed a Celestial Dragon..."
She murmured to herself, over and over again. She reached out and touched the blood that flowed across the ground, feeling the warmth of the blood against her touch.
The corners of his mouth
twitched upwards, slowly revealing a smile.
"You killed him..."
The smile gradually became manic.
"Hahahahahahaha!!! You killed him!!!"
He finally died!!
"hahahahahaha..."
The woman laughed heartily, but her eyes gradually welled with bloodshot tears.
"He finally died...sniffle sniffle..."
She choked back sobs, eventually breaking down in tears.
Darren looked at the woman who was laughing and crying hysterically, her expression manic and contorted, and his eyes couldn't help but drop.
"You are free."
He said.
"Freedom"
A bitter expression crossed the woman's face. She turned her body slightly, exposing her bare back to Darren.
On his back, a blood-red "Flying Dragon's Hoof" mark was shockingly conspicuous.
"What freedom is there in this world to me"
She looked up and smiled at Darren.
He smiled with a certain serenity, even relief.
"Thank you, Admiral."
She struggled to her feet, kneeling on both knees and bowing her head sincerely to Darren.
"I no longer have a reason to live. In this world, everyone I held dear has died at his hands."
"Please do what you are supposed to do."
Darren looked at her deeply.
He saw stubborn determination in her eyes.
He didn't know what she had gone through or how long she had been tortured by Sildes Saint.
But he has always adhered to one principle.
If you haven't personally experienced someone else's pain, don't lightly judge their life.
"I understand."
Then, farewell.
Having said that, Darren turned around without hesitation and walked toward the outside of the cabin.
The woman knelt on the ground, watching the Navy Colonel's retreating figure. She raised her hand to wipe away the tears from her face.
Her eyes were no longer vacant, no longer numb.
A radiant, warm smile gradually spread across her face, stained with blood.
Like a flower blooming tenaciously on a sheer cliff,
"Thank you, truly thank you... Admiral."
"If I survive this, it would be very inconvenient for you, wouldn't it... "
She smiled faintly.
He slowly picked up the golden handgun from the ground.
Bang bang!
She gritted her teeth and fired two shots into the corpse of the celestial being.
"Dad, Mom, I'm coming to be with you."
She smiled brilliantly.
The gun was pointed at his own temple.
She reserved the last bullet for herself.
……
Bang!
Gunshots and the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground echoed behind him, but Darren didn't slow his pace.
He is not a saint.
It's impossible to force someone who is determined to die to live.
She had no choice before.
But now she at least had the freedom to choose death.
Suppressing the emotions churning within him, Darren strode toward the slave hold beneath the officer's ship.
The locked hatch flew straight out.
Without any obstruction, Darren stepped inside one step at a time.
A pungent, damp smell hit me all at once. The dim yellow lamps flickered in the murky air.
Lia, curled up in a corner of her cage, heard the noise. A flicker of fear crossed her small face at first, but when she saw it was Darren, the expression of fear was quickly replaced by surprise.
Darren waved.
The steel cage crumbled and twisted in an instant, disintegrating into pieces. The chains that bound the little girl also shattered, falling to the ground.
"Navy Brother!!"
The gag that had been clamping her mouth open fell away, and the little girl cried out with a sob, stumbling towards Darren and clutching at his leg.
Darren rubbed her head and smiled gently:
"Come on, I'll take you home."
Leia nodded heavily, her eyes red.
Then Darren took her hand and walked out of the cabin.
However,
When Leia stepped out of the cabin and saw the bodies on deck, strung together with iron, her face paled.
She subconsciously looked into the cabin.
That terrifying, hideous Celestial being lay in a pool of blood.
Lia couldn't help but release Darren's hand and took two steps back in alarm.
Suddenly, she gritted her teeth and crashed hard into the nearby mast!
Darren reached out and grabbed her clothes, lifting her up like a little cat.
What are you doing？
He frowned.
The little girl said with tears in her voice:
"Can I survive this or not"
"If I survive, I'll cause a lot of trouble for my Navy brother."
Darren was taken aback and let out a sigh.
He remembered the little girl's father bumping into the wall before, feeling helpless in his heart.
They are really just like father and daughter.
He picked up the little girl and said seriously:
"Since I've survived, I'm going to live well."
"Your father is waiting for you to come home."
"I took your money, I have to protect you."
The little girl blushed a bit and stammered,
"Can... Can I... the money I turned in... was very little..."
Darren smiled.
"That's enough."
A piece of metal skateboard floated over, he stepped on the skateboard, his figure gradually rising into the air.
Hovering high above, Darren held a grimy little girl in one arm. He gazed down at the blood-soaked government ships below and slowly raised his hand, spreading his fingers wide. With an outstretched hand, he reached out to them from afar.
Boom...
Click click!!
Under the impetus of the metal bands on the official ship's hull, the entire ship, under the influence of a strange magnetic force, constantly compressed, collapsed, and twisted.
With a deafening roar, the gunpowder and cannons in the hold exploded instantly. A raging inferno shot into the sky, engulfing the entire ship like a colossal fireball.
A searing, massive shockwave slammed into them, causing the little girl to instinctively bury her head in the naval officer's chest, as if it were the safest place in the world.
The official ship was gradually sinking, and the banner of the world government, representing supreme authority, was turning to ashes in the flames.
Thick black smoke billowed up into the sky.
Between the thick, dark clouds, flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder heralded the impending storm.
In that hazy, swaying, distorted firelight,
Darren seemed to see faces flitting in and out of the mist, like phantoms.
He saw Gion, with a vacant look in her eyes and tightly clutching a rose in her hand, on the street.
I saw Jiaji venting his anger by punching the wall repeatedly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He saw the man kneeling before him, pulling out a pile of coins and begging him.
I saw a woman smiling as she picked up a golden pistol and shot herself;
...seeing the hideous, cruel grin of a Celestial Dragon...
Faces, one by one, and scenes, one after another, kept flashing in and out of the sky-high flames.
Darren let out a long sigh.
Deep down inside, that feeling of suffocation and gloom finally…completely dissipated in this moment.
Thoughts flowed effortlessly, a surge of indescribable emotion and power coursed through my chest, it was unbearable to keep bottled up.
Rip!
A ghastly bolt of lightning suddenly tore through the pitch-black sky, illuminating the entire world.
A devouring storm of wind and rain is upon us.
Winds are rising and clouds are gathering.
The naval colonel hovered high in the air, his aura steadily rising. His wide cloak danced behind him like a raging dragon.
A powerful, domineering, and solemn aura, as if in harmony with the storm raging between heaven and earth, erupted fiercely from his body.
The world changed its colors.
Meanwhile,
In Darren's perception, a new "project" slowly materialized.
Overbearing color, overbearing aura: 20
The aura of a king...awakens.
