Pirate: Hades!

"Tyrant" Barr, "The Undertaker" Callaway, and "Blade" Edge are all monsters with bounties exceeding 500 million Baileys.

He has the same status as Edward Newgate and Sky in the Rocks Pirates.

There is also "Death Chanter" Karthus, a superhuman sonic fruit capable person with a bounty of 460 million beli.

Among the Rocks Pirates, these are the only four people who are still alive today and who followed Hades' father Jaeger before the Rocks Pirates were established.

The rest of Jaeger's old group, as long as they are pirates who have not joined other big pirates, are mostly led by the four of them.

This is Jaeger's influence in the Rocks Pirates, and he still retains his terrifying power today.

In the future, it can be compared with the power controlled by a sea emperor.

For Hades, it is entirely possible for him to conquer them.

In this way, you can gain huge power in one fell swoop.

If it is brought back to the Kingdom of Kronos, it will definitely enhance the kingdom's military strength.

No matter what, in this sea.

Whether now or in the future, competition for hegemony will always be the theme.

Even if you don't fight, you can't be without strength.

In the Rocks Pirates, he also needs to master his own power.

The first step in establishing his own power is to conquer his father's old tribe.

With his current prestige, he is far inferior to other pirates in the Rocks Pirates.

Since Hades didn't feel any ill will, it meant that he had a chance to conquer them.

My previous performance has also been recognized by them to a certain extent.

The only thing lacking now may be his own strength.

The weak surrender to the strong. If there is no suppression by strength, how can others be willing to surrender to him.

But Hades is not in a hurry, he still needs a few years to grow.

The Rocks Pirates can still roam the sea for more than ten years.

It is now the year 1471 of the Haiyuan Era. The Rocks Pirates were destroyed in about 1485, so he has enough time to grow.

The second phase of the Rocks Pirates' battle with the Navy and the World Government has just begun.

Before that, there was one person whom Hades was quite confident that he could conquer.

That was Karthus the "Death Chanter", a half-baked bard who thought he was an excellent bard.

The most loyal servant and fanatical follower of "Death" Jaeger.

While they were observing Hades, Hades was also secretly observing them.

Karsus, whose heart was almost trembling with excitement, could not hide his hot gaze.

The crazy worship that was close to faith seemed to be completely transferred to Hades after Hades appeared.

Within Hades' range of emotion perception, Karsus's extremely fluctuating emotions were as dazzling as the sun.

It all made Hades a little suspicious that as long as he appeared in front of Karsus, Karsus would bow to him without saying anything.

With this first one, the rest will be easier.

Karthus is the soul of Yeager's old team, and he is powerful, second only to Baal, Callaway, and Ekko.

He was going to die for Jaeger at the beginning, and the Revenge Marine was second only to his mother, Nyx.

Coupled with Nyx's activity in the past few years, there are actually many pirates involved in revenge against the navy, and Karsus is one of them.

His mother also told him that if he wanted to conquer his father Yeager's old tribe, he should be the first to attack Karsus.

With Karsus' influence, as his strength and status in the Rocks Pirates improve, these old members will return to his protection.

In this regard, Hades has a much greater advantage than Shiki.

Even with great potential, Shiki is only the rising star of the Rocks Pirates.

Not to mention the many monsters at the same level as him, the three seniors John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi alone are stronger than him. They are only in their thirties now and have not yet reached their peak.

If there are any potential stocks to be added, their priority must be higher at the moment.

Where is Karthus?

All it takes is a little inquiry to find out.

There is a small and simple church at the foot of the mountain near a forest to the east of Hatchinos.

Against the backdrop of the setting sun, night falls, and Hades arrives quietly.

The church did not have a door. Hades stepped in front of the church, and a dark and damp atmosphere hit his face.

At first glance, the church was empty. The floor, chairs, and even the windows seemed to have been carefully cleaned.

Hades knew clearly that Karsus was inside, and had even noticed the slightly excited look.

Entering the church, following his gaze, Hades saw Karsus.

Wearing a black robe, holding a Bible in one hand, he stood on the side of the pulpit.

There are no decorations or carvings inside the church. It looks very simple and a little weird.

Looking at Karsus, Hades felt that he was not a bard, but a priest and a believer.

At this time, Karsus was not as crazy as Hades had felt before. He seemed a little calm, and his gaze towards Hades also seemed a little soft.

This made Hades realize that it was not himself that Karsus was looking at before, but his father "Yager".

clatter! clatter!

Accompanied by crisp footsteps, Hades continued to move forward along the center of the aisle, raised his legs, and stepped onto the high platform of the church.

Standing on the only light and shadow that falls on the high platform through the high windows in the church.

"My heart is silent and I turn to God, for my salvation comes from Him!"

Karsus slowly approached, allowing Hades to see his appearance clearly. He was a tall, thin, long-haired young man with a somewhat pale complexion. He was actually close to forty years old.

"I've been waiting for death to come."

Karsus' words made Hades frown slightly. He did not want to be regarded as a substitute for his father Yeager.

"Sorry, I'm not the God of Death."

Facing Hades's rejection, Karsus was not angry, but instead had a smile on his face.

"As long as I have needs, I have a reason to live. Satisfaction is death!"

"The throne of death has arrived, and I will give everything I have to crown you!"

Karthus's intention of surrender is very obvious, but whose will does this represent? Is it his father Jaeger?

"Everything that belongs to me belongs to me. My destiny is in my own hands, and I will create it whether it is good or bad."

Hades would not refuse the help his family gave him.

But at this time, he was a little dissatisfied, because he was the king, always had been, and he didn't need to rely on others at all.

He never wanted to live in the shadow of "Death".

Invisible and terrifying domineering power erupted from Hades' body, exuding endless coercion in the air, perfectly controlled within the scope of the entire church.

The terrifying aura like the netherworld merged with the fierce spirit of Hades, and the domineering will of the king was undoubtedly revealed.
