Chapter 044 [Devil Fruit]
"Enter the Akatsuki Demon Cave immediately, there will be many dangers inside, our target this time is the Devil Fruit, this time we must complete the task beautifully!"
The golden-masked faceless commanded his men emotionlessly, and soon, he turned his head towards the face of a silver-faced faceless man behind him, whose forehead was marked with a four-seven mark.
"Killer Four-Seven, this is your first travel mission after being promoted to the Silver level, I hope to see the value of your existence, worthy of your excellent performance in the training camp, don't disappoint."
"Yes, Shadow Lady."
Behind the silver mask, there was a relatively immature voice, and it could be seen that the person under the mask should not be very old.
Among the Facelings, there is a rule, most of them, without names, are often referred to by numerical codes.
The status of the Facelings, excluding the leader who leads them, is divided into three tiers.
The first level is the gold rank, a total of the ten strongest people, each with a variety of unique titles, such as wind, flower, arashi, vulture, etc., which represent a unique style, with a shadow word suffix.
The second level is the silver rank, a total of 100 people who are second strongest, and their titles are mostly commensurate with numbers, such as killer zero one, killer four seven, killer eight or six, the number of these titles does not mean that the strength is high or weak, because each position may die, and then be promoted from the lower rank.
As for the third order, it is the bronze level, mostly some rookies or novices, and their names are also numbers, but compared to the prefix of the silver level, it is a little funny, such as novice zero one, novice seven four, and so on.
In addition, the gold-level faceling in front of him was marked with a faint magic word on the forehead of his mask, and the shadow word honorific title that must be added to the gold rank, so it was called the demon shadow.
Under the direction of the Demon Shadow, the others took their places, except for one Silver-Rank Faceless One to command the rest of the Bronze-Rank Facelings, the rest of the eight or nine Silver-Rank Faceless Ones began to follow the Shadow into the Akatsuki Demon Cave, into the gloomy cave that resembled the demon's mouth.
……
At this moment, Kaisha was still on her way to the entrance of the Red Moon Demon Cave.
Along the way, in addition to the scattered corpses of mutant creatures, you can occasionally see the corpses of a few adventurers, the basic methods are simply neat, and the death can not be more thorough, these poor eggs, just come here to risk at this time period.
The Faceless One is really ruthless, in order to monopolize the exit of the Devil Fruit and not let others know the news here, there is basically no one left alive, and it is difficult to be discovered many years later when Akatsuki Canyon is popular.
Along the way, Keisha encountered several rounds of dark posts, and the layout of the Faceless was still very tight, but these assassins could never have imagined that there would be a more scheming guy than them sneaking through their scouting circle.
Keisha didn't forget to calculate as she advanced, and according to the layout of these dark sentinels, their purpose was indeed to reach the final destination of this trip, the Red Moon Demon Cave.
Fortunately, the monsters along the way were basically cleaned up, and Keisha walked smoothly all the way, and after another two hours, he finally came to the entrance of the Akatsuki Demon Cave.
Keisha looked.
Outside the door, there was no one, but it was the emptiness that made it seem scheming, according to the previous practice, there must be three or four wild monsters guarding the door outside the entrance of this cave to get by, so Keisha scanned it very carefully, and finally found a few sneaky guys in some inconspicuous corners.
Very well hidden, very professional.
So, the next step is going to be challenging.
Judging from the arrangement of the number of people in the circle outside, it seems that the main force of the Faceless has entered the cave, once inside, even the most powerful guys are often lacking in skills, Keisha knows what level of danger in the Akatsuki Demon Cave is, and only by showing real skills can it be possible to get the desired result.
Without further ado, if they move quickly, they may be able to get the Devil Fruit soon, and there is definitely no chance of attacking head-on, and if they want to succeed, they have to take advantage of their most chaotic time to deliver the most fatal blow.
Keisha who messes with something is the best at it.
Keisha used her magical power to the extreme, and the dim sky in the Akatsuki Canyon made Keisha's blurring technique almost as effective as the stealth technique, and then, she sneaked into the dark cavern.
When you enter the Red Moon Demon Cave, it is also bright, but the red turbidity is stronger, of course, under the influence of the power of the devil, there are more powerful creatures here.
In addition to the several giant spiders I had seen before, there were also other giant insects, such as giant blade mantises, thorn monsters, and evil centipedes, all of which were fifth- to sixth-order creatures, and they were the guards of the Akatsuki Demon Cave, and once they were gathered, the danger factor would increase exponentially.
Along the way, there is no need for Keisha to go to find it, the blood of monsters along the way has guided Keisha to move forward, because someone has cleared the monsters all the way, this journey is very comfortable, and even, in the place where the monster corpses are dense, there are several corpses of silver-level assassins, which were pierced horizontally by the arm of a severed knife mantis, depending on the situation, there has just been a big battle here.
The Akatsuki Demon Cave is very large, and there are many monsters inside, but it doesn't seem that the Faceless Ones are coming for the first time, they chose a path that is almost the least mutated creatures, and when they walked all the way, Keisha finally heard the movement coming from the front, and quickly kept enough distance to find a good position to hide, and at the same time, released a miniature mobile reconnaissance guard again to observe the situation ahead at any time.
At this moment, the Faceless Ones are about to reach the destination of their journey, where the Demon Tree is located.
The Demon Tree grows on top of the Demon Altar and is a tree of abilities that breeds with the power of the Akatsuki Demon, and about every other year, it grows a Devil Fruit, and when consumed, it will have a special ability depending on the constitution.
And the guardian of the Demon Tree is a powerful creature called the Two-Headed Blood Demon here.
A super mutant baboon that is six meters tall, its whole body is red, and it has a demonic baboon-like face, of course, its strength is also extremely strong, a terrifying existence close to the eighth order.
The ghost laid out the tactics briefly.
"Next, I will be responsible for dragging down the two-headed blood demon, and the rest of the silver-level faceless ones will face the direction of the Demon Tree, whoever has the opportunity to approach will help that companion, even if it is for their lives, if I find anyone hesitating, I guarantee that his fate will only be worse."
"Understood!"
The rest of the Silver-Shadowed Faceless replied softly.
"Alright, the action begins, and the speed of the battle! Once you've completed your mission, evacuate quickly! ”
Even if they were as strong as ghosts, they had no intention of regretting the two-headed blood demon, the target of their trip was the Devil Fruit, and the value of one fruit, even if the newcomers present combined, was far less than its price. Basically, there will be casualties in every fruit operation, but so what, the Faceless Ones are all beings who are not afraid of death.
At this time, the ghost moved.
