Pirate: Hades!

Zhan Guo knew that it was not enough to rely on Xirik alone to guard Atlas, and at least a top-level combat force was needed.

Otherwise, if those monsters suddenly come to attack, who can Xirik stop?

Although Xirik is now considered a strong man in the navy, there is still a huge gap when facing those real monsters.

The pirates' goal is only to rescue Atlas.

The World Government's target was the Flying Pirates, but now due to changes in the situation, it has become the entire pirate army.

As for Atlas, he was just a bait to lure the Flying Pirates over.

When the Flying Pirates arrived, Atlas's mission was complete.

However, in order to prevent the pirates from evacuating early, they need to leave this target behind and protect Atlas.

That’s right, protection!

As if being rescued by pirates.

When the time comes, the real executioner will take action.

And Xirik was the executioner chosen by the Warring States Period.

Xirik's wisdom, strong adaptability, and determination to strike without mercy.

Among the remaining strong men in the navy, no one is more suitable for this task than Xirik.

Within the navy, Xirik is one of the few people who can be ranked alongside Kyle.

The two have equal potential, being proficient in taijutsu, haki, and swordsmanship.

He is an extremely talented person in all aspects.

If Kyle's heartbeat fruit has some combat capabilities, it can control his own heartbeat to speed up blood circulation, and he also has the ability to control the heartbeat of others.

The ability of that Xirik's fruit is that he has absolutely no combat ability.

Cyric's qualities were even noticed by the World Government, who wanted to directly promote him to CP0, but the Navy strongly rejected this in order to prevent him from being snatched away by the World Government.

Xirik also holds a very important position in today's navy and is one of the core senior executives in the future.

His positioning is similar to that of Chief of Staff Crane, with the rank of Lieutenant General. His combat power is not the top one, but his status is comparable to that of a general.

At least he won't be weaker than the general candidate.

After all, Xirik's ability cannot be reflected by military rank and combat power.

Xirik was the biggest contributor who helped Sakaski stabilize the North Sea in the shortest possible time.

What Xirik needs to do is to protect Atlas and delay the war as long as possible.

Of course, it was difficult for him to do much.

The most important task is to kill Atlas at the right time.

It could have been when Atlas was about to be rescued, or it could have been some other situation.

What to do is entirely up to Xirik himself.

Sengoku gave the power of execution to Cyric. In short, other pirates could leave except Atlas.

For the sea, execution is the purpose of the navy and the world government.

At least that's what they knew.

The war started, and after giving his orders, Zhan Guo headed straight for the battlefield.

Below and in the rear, many top combat forces, high-end combat forces, and many marines did not sit still and wait for death. They picked up their weapons and rushed forward.

The Marine Headquarters building was destroyed by a bolt of lightning from King Ghidorah's breath.

Now Xirik is standing at the highest point, overlooking the battlefield. He is in the center of the entire ocean, as if the world is at his feet.

He stood calmly beside Atlas, with one hand on the hilt of the knife at his waist, ready to strike at any time.

This was not the role he expected. Standing here, too many people's eyes were on him.

Although he has a high prestige in Beihai.

But more of it is within the navy, and between the underground world and major forces in the North Sea.

Among the people, not many know him unless they try to understand him.

It's more about pushing Sakaski to the front, and those reputations are of little use to him.

He actually prefers to stay behind the scenes.

Just like his original position within the Navy.

However, as he shifted his goal to assist Sakaski, great changes took place.

Maybe at this time, many brothers and sisters, mother, and father are looking at him?

As Xirik thought about this, for some reason, he felt a little excited.

In almost ten years since he left the Kingdom of Chronos, he has grown from an ordinary marine to a senior naval official.

What others don’t know is.

Recently, Xirik felt that there were some changes in his fruit ability.

Its appeal and ability to incite people's hearts have been further enhanced.

He didn't know if this was the awakening of his ability, but it didn't feel like it.

Because he didn't have a feeling of breaking through the bottleneck.

He will not have any bottleneck all along.

In fact, Xirik should have noticed it earlier.

His intuition told him that due to a special reason, his fruit ability was undergoing a transformation.

That’s right, the fruit of language seems to be transforming and evolving.

The increasing effectiveness of the ability is proof of this.

When it comes to developing his abilities, Xirik had already reached his limit a long time ago. Due to the increased workload, he did not have much time to develop his devil fruit abilities.

At most, do daily physical exercise.

In addition, the most direct reason is that Xirik feels that his physical strength and vitality are slowly increasing.

This enhancement is so slow that it is difficult to notice for a moment, and you may even feel that it is a period of improvement caused by breaking the limits of your body.

Actually, no, Xirik doesn't have time to exercise every day.

Moreover, the practice of training and improving strength by breaking through limits has been experienced both in the Royal Military Academy and in the Navy Xirik.

After some research, Xirik finally realized that his body was strengthening itself autonomously.

Enhance his physique and vitality.

The degree of enhancement in one day may be only a little bit, but accumulated over a year it will be a very considerable degree.

This is definitely due to the devil fruit.

Xirik felt that his ability was no longer the fruit of language, but had undergone a miraculous transformation.

Possessed abilities similar to those of the Animal Fruit.

To be precise, it is a mythical beast species.

Mythical beasts are the embodiment of myths and legends!

Legend has it that he possesses an extremely rare heroic devil fruit.

They are all heroes who have done great deeds at some point in time, leaving a deep mark on the sea and are remembered forever.

In essence, it is no different from the appearance of mythical beasts, but this type of rare heroic devil fruit will mostly be classified as a human-human fruit.

Xirik seldom dreams, but his dreaming frequency has increased recently.

What did he dream about?

It is the experience of the Dark Sun Cult since its establishment.

The prayers of countless believers in history.

It was he who created the God of Dark Sun and the epic myth about the God of Dark Sun.

It was as if he had really become the deity he had created.

Became the God of Dark Sun!

Became himself.

Turning language into lies, creating all this now——

The God of Lies, Xirik!

Unknowingly, Xirik has embarked on the path from man to god.

Epic creates myth!

And he is the myth itself.

The world does not know all this, but what he did is deeply imprinted in this world.

Perhaps, a god who left a deep mark on the sea.

All have walked the same path that Cyric is walking now.

The difference is that Xirik walked with great ease, he had countless believers, and the invisible and intangible faith was condensed in his body.

It is unknown how long this change will last, but it is a good thing as it will raise the upper limit of Xirik.

Or rather, there is no limit.

If Xirik is the creator of the fruit and the ability itself, then there will naturally be no bottleneck.

But it has nothing to do with the present. I don’t know how long this transformation will last.
