Chapter 1797

After ending a group of pirates, Sebastian continued seeking their tracks. On the way, he found a few scattered pirates. A group of them had about a dozen men. Holding scimitars, they formed a half-circle in an attempt to stop Sebastian. Expressionlessly, Sebastian lunged right into their formation. Spiritual energy circulated his body and formed an indestructible shield. The pirates' attack landed on the shield and instantly shattered like an egg hitting a rock. Sebastian's arms waved rapidly, every move whipping up a gust of strong wind. He placed his palms together and pushed forward all of a sudden, and a powerful wave of spiritual energy burst out. Along with a bang, dozens of pirates were blown off by this force. Their bodies contorted in the air, fell heavily on the ground, and stopped moving for good. Another group of pirates rode on sea beasts and tried to attack Sebastian from the side. Dodging sideways, Sebastian avoided a bite from a sea beast. Then, he flew into the air, stepped on the head of the sea beast, and used it as leverage to jump high. In the air, he formed seals with his hands, and a gigantic palm made of spiritual energy fell from the sky. With a wham, the sea beasts and the pirates riding on their backs were smashed into minced meat, their blood staining the sea red. Just like that, Sebastian swiftly wiped out all the pirates he encountered using hard-handed tactics. Finally, he reached the base of Merry Pirates, Merry Island. The island was heavily-guarded. When the pirate on the lookout tower saw Sebastian approaching, he immediately sounded the security alarm. All of a sudden, anxiety washed over the entire island. Big groups of pirates rushed out and surrounded Sebastian. In one glance, the pirates were so closely packed that they looked like an ant colony, and there were a few hundred of them. "Who are you? How dare you enter Merry Island!" bellowed a pirate, who seemed like the leader. Sebastian didn't answer him, but the murderous intent in his eyes thickened. He made a move and appeared within the pirate crowd like a shadow. Instantly, war cries, cries of pain, and sounds of weapons clashing echoed through the island. Sebastian moved within the pirate crowd, and a pirate was bound to fall every time he attacked. He used the Great Devouring Technique, and his energy grew stronger as he kept absorbing the spiritual energy from the pirates into his body. A pirate attacked him with a knife, and he avoided it by dodging sideways. In retaliation, he threw a punch and bore a hole through the pirate's chest, crushing the pirate's heart to shreds. Another pirate sneaked an attack from Sebastian's back. As though he had eyes on his back, Sebastian kicked backward and sent the man flying more than 30 feet away. The man crashed onto a rock and turned into a pile of mashed flesh. Sebastian waved his arms, and a tornado made of spiritual energy twisted out. Dozens of pirates were caught into it and ripped to pieces by the wind. As time went on, bodies of the pirates piled up, and blood flowed into a river, staining the island. However, Sebastian's killing intent didn't diminish even a little. He wanted to get rid of these criminals from the roots to avenge the innocent villagers and Orinthia, who was possibly in a dangerous situation now. Finally, Sebastian reached the core of the island and found their dungeon.
