Chapter 435: Chapter 310: Polar Showdown, Dragon Balls Assembled

When Loksi was trapped at sea.

The news of the complete destruction of Loksi’s fleet spread widely across the sea.

Some said it was due to bad weather, others claimed it was destroyed by the Golden Lion, and some said it was temporarily lost at sea. In any case, due to the absence of Loksi Pirates’ presence for many days, similar rumors quickly spread everywhere.

Especially among some of Loksi’s subordinates.

It is worth mentioning that, naturally, not all of Loksi’s subordinates were with the fleet. They had intelligence personnel and scout parties to pave the way and gather information. Before the main force headed to a certain place, the scout party would set out in small boats to explore the local situation first.

As a result, the scout party waited at the destination for many days without seeing the main force, which is how they knew something was wrong with the main force.

More critically, not only did the main force not appear, but the scout party also encountered trouble and was slaughtered by the Thunder Lion Pirates.

This is why many people believed the news of the Loksi Pirates’ complete destruction.

However.

When this news was rampant, Loksi, who had been missing for days, reappeared.

...

A small island town.

People were living their usual mundane lives. Two farmers were picking fruits in the orchard while chatting casually.

Suddenly, one of them looked up at the sky inadvertently and saw a shadow swiftly flying from a distance.

"Huh? What is that?"

The man wondered aloud.

The other farmer also turned to look.

The silhouette was not too far from their island by now, and its outline was already clear—it was definitely not a bird.

The two watched for a few seconds as the silhouette drew closer, allowing them to see the approaching figure’s shape clearly—it was a person.

"It really is a person!"

"He can fly!"

"Quick, notify everyone to prepare!"

One of the farmers shouted in alarm.

But before the townspeople could gather, the silhouette had already reached above the island, standing high above the bustling streets.

There was a commotion among the people.

Many rushed back inside to grab knives before stepping out again, looking at Loksi with faces full of fear.

Others grabbed weapons and rushed over from nearby places.

As residents of the same island, they were used to facing pirates frequently and had grown accustomed to collaborating to fend off external threats.

However.

As more people gathered, some began to recognize Loksi’s face.

Their face instantly turned utterly pale, and after a while, they finally managed to shout:

"That’s... that’s Loksi!"

As these words were uttered, the entire place fell into silence.

Everyone’s face was filled with terror.

The name of the pirate overlord Loksi was even more renowned than Pirate King Roger, recognized by all as the world’s strongest.

The key was his extremely brutal methods.

For a small, ordinary town like theirs, encountering a top-tier pirate like Loksi was undoubtedly disastrous.

As the people were gripped by fear, Loksi roughly assessed the situation on the island.

Although the island was small, it had everything he needed, allowing him to finally have a feast and grab some Permanent Compasses to find larger islands, rebuild his forces quickly.

Thinking of this made Loksi shout:

"Quickly prepare some food, fresh fruits, and wine for me, also give me some Permanent Compasses, and I’ll spare you."

"Hurry up!"

The people heaved a collective sigh of relief and hurried to prepare all kinds of delicacies for Loksi.

After feasting, Loksi demanded some wealth as well before leaving the nameless small island with the Permanent Compasses.

The news of Loksi’s reappearance began to spread across the world from this day on.

...

With the Sky Dancing Technique, Loksi had no shortcomings and could exert his unrivaled strength in any environment.

Even with the complete destruction of his fleet, he could easily rebuild his forces and soon locate the Thunder Lion Pirates, easily defeating and subjugating the Golden Lion and Enel’s crew.

Afterward, with his greatly strengthened new Loksi Pirates, he swept across the world with even greater ferocity, snatching Dragon Balls everywhere.

Even the New World Pirate Alliance was easily crushed by Loksi.

The World Government was also completely destroyed by him.

The so-called world nobles, the Celestial Dragons, were not worth mentioning. In such chaotic times, no one cared about their status. Early on in the turmoil, many pirates had already wiped them out, and their treasures had been plundered.

The Loksi Pirates were even more ruthless.

Lacking any discipline, wherever they went, they engaged in killing, burning, and looting, causing great disasters for the kingdoms and islands they passed.

For a while, everyone lived in fear.

It seemed as if the entire world was on the brink of collapse.

At this moment, the Revolutionary Army suddenly stood up, with Dragon showcasing strength comparable to Loksi, even managing to confront the Loksi Pirates directly on one occasion, greatly enhancing his prestige.

Thus, the world’s power dynamics changed.

The invincible Loksi, with his ever-growing pirate crew, became a dominant force in the world.

The Revolutionary Army, led by Dragon, became the other prevailing force.

All other forces fell apart or dwindled, hardly causing any more disturbances.
