When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

In a relatively remote galaxy, two space fleets are engaged in a fierce battle. On one side are the pirates with strange paint styles and uneven ship models, while on the other side are the well-organized official fleet of the galaxy-level civilization.

A pirate destroyer suddenly attacked from behind the meteorite, and several laser beams shot out like mad pythons out of a cave, brushing against the shield of the official fleet's vanguard ship, splashing dazzling sparks.

The official fleet quickly counterattacked. The cruiser's main gun was fully charged. With a flash of strong light, a thick particle beam blasted out with a tremendous force and hit the advancing pirate ship directly, instantly exploding it into a brilliant fireball. The wreckage smashed into the surrounding meteorites, triggering a series of small collisions.

The meteorite belt made the battle more complicated, and the spacecrafts of both sides moved and dodged between the boulders. The pirates relied on their familiarity with the terrain and drove small and flexible aircraft to shuttle back and forth between the gaps of the meteorites, occasionally throwing a few tracking hot melt bombs.

The official fleet's frigates were divided into groups of two, activating a coordinated defense system. Dense anti-aircraft firepower formed a network, and the melta bombs were reduced to dust in the gorgeous barrage before they could get close.

However, no matter how fiercely the two fleets fought, there was always a gap with a diameter of thousands of kilometers in the center of the battlefield where no one had set foot, and two figures, one big and one small, kept colliding in the universe.

The smaller one is naturally Kitahara Akatsuki, and the larger one is a disaster-level super-powered being who looks like an octopus.

He is the leader of this group of space pirates and a martial artist by profession.

Due to his special race, he was able to integrate martial arts techniques with his own racial characteristics and greatly enhance his strength. The star pirate group he founded was a huge cancer in the nearby star field.

It's not like there haven't been mercenaries or official troops coming to attack us in the past, but this guy is very powerful and his whereabouts are very erratic, so it was difficult to ambush him this time.

"Pah!" A tentacle full of suction cups hit Kitahara Akira hard when he was not prepared.

The next moment, the tentacles bent and the suction cups squirmed rapidly, and the cells of the star pirate leader instantly squeezed out a large amount of energy and supplied it.

Several thick tentacles flew in the sky, instantly wrapping up Kitahara Xiao tightly in several strange ways.

"This move of mine has crushed countless ignorant guys to death." The Octopus Pirate's mouth opened and closed as he laughed, "Little brat, be careful in your next life!"

After saying that, the tentacles that were wrapped around Kitahara Xiao suddenly exerted force in an attempt to strangle him completely.

However, Kitahara Xiao's body was not crushed into a bloody mist as he expected. Instead, raging flames suddenly ignited on the tentacles.

"Ahhhh!" The high temperature of thousands of degrees made the Octopus Pirate let out a miserable wail.

But before he could react, countless slashing attacks that were imperceptible to the naked eye arrived in an instant.

His somewhat burnt tentacles were easily cut into thousands of small pieces floating in the universe, and the octopus pirate was instantly turned into a "Zhang Zhu".

The octopus pirate who had lost his limbs no longer had any strength to resist and was easily suppressed by Kitahara Akatsuki in an instant.

After knocking out the octopus pirate, Kitahara Xiao hesitated for a moment as he looked at the thousands of pieces of octopus meat floating in the universe. Finally, he reached out and scooped up a piece that was roasted more evenly and put it in his mouth.

Hmm...? It tastes surprisingly good...

With the capture of their own boss, the pirate group instantly fell apart. Except for a small number of pirates who escaped by using superluminal jump after escaping the jammer range, most of the pirates were either captured alive by the official fleet or simply became fireworks in the universe along with the ships.

Taking the unconscious octopus pirate on board, Kitahara Akatsuki followed the attraction beam back to the fleet's main ship.

"Your Excellency Shadow," the commander of the official fleet gave Kitahara Akatsuki a universal interstellar salute.

Kitahara Akatsuki nodded and threw the Octopus Pirate to the ground. "It's this guy, right?"

"Uh..." Looking at the unrecognizable Octopus Pirate on the ground, the commander was stunned for a moment and then nodded, "Yes, it's the [Sea Beast] Gordos."

The next moment, Kitahara Akira's communicator rang.

He took it out and saw that the reward for this mission had been received.

"The commission is over. I'm leaving now." Kitahara Akira said as he took another bite of the grilled octopus. Since they were not humanoid creatures, he didn't feel disgusted eating them.

You know what, the alien species are really cool.

"Please stay, sir," the commander said hurriedly, "We are holding a celebration banquet to celebrate the capture of Godos. Please..."

"Shua!" Kitahara Xiao left without looking back, leaving only a closed door for the commander.

He completed the commissions from these galactic civilizations only to increase his own prestige and fame. Apart from money, the galactic civilizations could not give him any significant benefits.

He is not the commander of a large army like Hilde, so he does not need to worry about the development of his power.

Facing the awed gazes of the crew members along the way, Kitahara Xiao arrived at the port inside the main ship.

After several C-class mechanics who were maintaining his vehicle left, Kitahara Akatsuki boarded his own vehicle, the Gray Gu Storm.

He bought this at a huge price, and the overall craftsmanship has reached the level of star cluster civilization.

The overall appearance is streamlined silver-white, with powerful defense capabilities and maneuverability. As for its attack capabilities? Kitahara Akatsuki, who drives it, is the most powerful weapon.

After several hours of faster-than-light travel and jumps, Kitahara Xiao finally returned to Starlight Port.

After parking the spaceship, Kitahara Xiao walked straight towards the underground training ground.

“Ahhhhh——!” As soon as the door to the training ground opened, Long Ritian’s body flew towards Beiyuan Xiao.

Kitahara Xiao caught the wounded Long Ritian with one hand and turned to look inside the training ground.

Well, it's a mess.

The mecha warrior, the cosmic tyrant, was half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath, his mecha and weapons shattered to pieces.

Yukino Yukinoshita and Kato Megumi were sweating profusely and their chests were heaving, obviously they were exhausted.

"Boss, my spine seems to be broken." Long Ritian felt his body and said, "Just kill me so I can be resurrected."

"Oh," Kitahara Xiao replied casually and wiped his neck.

After throwing aside Long Ritian's body, which was gradually turning into white light, Beiyuan Xiao walked up to the two women.

"How does it feel to have a sparring partner at any time?" Kitahara Xiao took out two bottles of water and handed them to the two of them.

"Not bad," Yukinoshita Yukino unscrewed the bottle cap and took two sips, "I feel like my control over my abilities has improved a lot."

"Me too, but every time I kill them I always feel something strange the next time I fight them..." Kato Megumi couldn't help but complain

Kitahara Akira shrugged and said, "I'm a player, that's normal."

After he confronted Long Ritian and the other two, he semi-forced the two elite B-level soldiers to stay behind to serve as sparring partners for Yukinoshita Yukino and Kato Megumi to help them quickly adapt to interstellar combat.

Long Ritian and the other were actually quite happy about it. Kitahara Xiao's request became a long-term task with rich rewards on their game panel. Why not do it?

"Well, I brought back some ingredients to celebrate." Kitahara Akira showed the two the specialties from various planets he bought along the way. "We can have a barbecue party or something later."

"By the way, this octopus meat is delicious, you must try it, but it's best not to ask me where it comes from."
