Thousands of meters away, on the Nishizakura, Lucy suddenly frowned.

That feeling just now?!

His gaze looked to the side, a woman wrapped in a black robe with a hazy face.

"Martha-sama......"

The black-robed woman ignored Lucy's call, but suddenly stretched out her right hand.

It was a wrinkled, scarred, cracked arm like dead wood.

With a wriggling of the epidermis of the arm, the dead wood arm suddenly swelled into a pustule the size of a pebble.

Stretch out your left hand, which is also dry, and use the dagger to cut through the pustules.

Whoa!

Inky black viscous pus poured down his arm and down to the deck.

After a while, the thick water gathered and took shape, turning into an inky black worm, as if it smelled something, and squirmed rapidly in one direction.

At the same time, the pustule on the black-robed woman's right hand dried up and quickly absorbed and healed, forming a new scar.

Add a new victory to this scarred arm.

"Ahem!"

As this action ended, the black-robed woman coughed heavily, subconsciously covered her mouth, and her body seemed to bend down and tremble slightly because of the severe pain.

But the inky black liquid still dripped down the corners of her mouth and the gaps between her fingers.

Unlike the previous concentrated water, these inky black liquids seemed to be just blood, and there were no special anomalies other than the different colors.

"Martha-sama!"

Lucy's eyes flashed with mixed emotions, and even with a hint of hidden admiration.

"Old problem...... Leave me alone and deal with the traitor who leaked his location. ”

The black-robed woman's voice was hoarse, like an old man who was about to enter the wood, but she spoke clearly and calmly.

Lucy gave the black-robed woman a deep look, then nodded.

"Thank you, Lord Martha, for your help, if I can escape this catastrophe this time and help Lord Hall get into contact with the crisis of the Black Bone Pirates, I will definitely ask for something to prolong your life!"

As the words fell, Lucy led the people to follow the thick water worm that had left earlier, and walked to the cabin.

For Lucy's departure, for those words of Lucy.

The black-robed woman didn't even lift her eyelids, but just slowed down for a moment, stood up straight quietly, closed her eyes and rested.

Wizards have a wide range of temperaments, but most don't believe much in empty promises, and they are more focused on tangible exchange of benefits.

What a thing that prolongs life, how precious.

Just Lucy, a cadre who is not even a second-in-command or third-in-command in the Black Bone Pirates.

Even if you make a beautiful promise, in Martha's eyes, it is just a beautiful lie.

If you really want to believe it, that's really stupid, and you can't be called a qualified wizard at all!

Not to mention...... She has long had a suitable trading partner, and it is because of that man.

She will appear by Lucy's side at the right time, save them from suffering, lead this group of guys to escape from the pursuit of Zhongcheng Island, and ensure the safety of these people.

Several times he took risks to rescue Lucy and the others.

The experience of 'life and death together' several times made this slightly shrewd man reveal his true feelings several times, showing ridiculous and childish emotions.

But Martha understands what she really wants, and she's been working hard for it.

As a wizard, a wizard at the end of his life.

What should have been experienced has been experienced, and the mistakes that should have been made have been made.

Nowadays, she has seen too many things and knows what is important and what is just a temporary illusion.

Accompanied by the screams coming from the cabin, the faint fluorescence emitted by the hull of the ship was soon completely extinguished.

Gollum!

The inky black worms, already like freezing, squeezed out of the cracks in the deck, burrowed back above the deck, swayed their bodies, and called out next to Martha.

Glancing at the inky black bug, Martha's mouth opened slightly.

Sou!

In the next moment, the jet-black worm shot up and burrowed into her mouth.

With a few rapid shakes of the tail, the hypertrophied bugs go down the throat and into the stomach.

It was not the first time that the surrounding crew had seen this kind of picture, but they still felt sick to their stomachs, some were disgusted and nauseous, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to take a second look.

Ignoring everyone's reactions, Martha wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth, her pupils shrank, and she became a cat's eye.

The next moment, everything around him became blurred and faded.

Only a few kilometers away, the huge lantern corresponding to the fluorescence was clearly visible and bright.

The sailboat beneath her feet had melted into the fog perfectly, emitting no light.

"Martha-sama?"

Listening to the sound in her ears, Martha's eyes changed, and her vision returned to normal.

Glancing at Lucy next to her, Martha asked lightly, "How many have you killed?" ”

"There are thirteen traitors in all, and they have all been cleaned up. I've had people reroute......"

"Change course? No, just follow the predetermined route, that's the best route. ”

"But the pursuers behind already know where we are......"

"I've seen it before, and the pursuers have only one battleship. At most, we can track our current location, and it is impossible to predict our next route. ”

Lucy hesitated, and glanced at Master Martha, who was in a hazy state.

Thinking of the past few months, Lord Martha's several rescues, finally nodded.

"Then everything is up to Lord Martha's arrangement."

Lucy's idea was simple, if Lord Martha really wanted to harm him, then in the past few months, there had been several opportunities.

But Master Martha didn't do it once, but saved him from the crisis again and again.

This kind of trust between life and death is the strongest and the easiest to create illusions.

Just as Lucy was thinking about this, he noticed that Master Martha's movements suddenly stopped.

It was about half a second before it returned to normal.

As soon as doubts rose in Lucy's heart, his right hand suddenly cooled.

It was like the rough bark of a tree, rubbing against the palm of your hand.

But a feeling of ecstasy rose in Lucy's heart, and he looked up at the woman beside him in excitement.

"Martha-sama!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a shadow directly covered his entire face, obscuring all vision.

This is...... Martha-sama's palm?

The thought just popped into my head—

Syllable!

A crisp slap has already sounded.

While everyone was stunned, Martha's palm quickly expanded like a balloon, gradually becoming transparent, completely enveloping Lucy's entire head.

Grunt.

As Lucy finally reacted, he began to struggle violently.

A large number of bubbles appeared inside Martha's swollen palm, as if there was a cloud of stagnant water inside, about to drown Lucy alive.

But as Lucy's body struggled to reflex, and the liquid in Martha's round ball palm turned inky black.

Only then did everyone realize that the palm of the hand probably contained toxins.
