Flying Squirrel was speechless. He had tried to do so before, using Moon Steps to chase after Gu Xuan, wanting to destroy his boat. However, Gu Xuan did not give him a chance at all. He used his ability to make it impossible for him to get close. Moreover, Moon Steps could not really fly. It was fine for short distances, but it could not last for long distances. Therefore, in the end, he could not catch up to Gu Xuan at all, let alone hurt him.
This was also Gu Xuan's shrewdness. His goal was to attack the warship. If he succeeded, he would immediately retreat and not bother at all. In a situation where there was only one Vice Admiral, wanting to keep him alive was undoubtedly a fool's dream. His current strength might not be comparable to a Navy General, but an ordinary Vice Admiral was really not his match.
After completing the second mission, he received another three talent points and 6,000 dark points. Due to the limitations of his Will and Potential, he was temporarily unable to upgrade his Armed Colored Domination. He could only continue to upgrade his Armed Colored Domination to the second level if his Will and Potential were further improved. He could upgrade his Seeing Colored Domination, but Gu Xuan did not use his precious talent points. After his awakening, the range of his Seeing Colored Domination was not bad. It had a radius of more than 100 meters, so he did not need to upgrade it for the time being.
Gu Xuan thought for a moment and chose to increase his willpower and potential. He added two points to his willpower and one point to his potential.
The improvement of his willpower and potential wasn't as immediate as the improvement of his physique, but it would make his spirit and talent better. This was a late-stage cultivation. The further he cultivated, the more important it would be.
As soon as the second mission of the competent pirate series was completed, a new mission appeared in the system.
[Mission: A competent pirate (End)]”
" Mission objective: As a competent pirate, your greatest opponent isn't the navy, but the pirate forces that belong to the same group. Destroy at least three pirate groups. The three pirate groups are the pirate group that belongs to the Four Seas, the pirate group that belongs to the first half of the great sea route, and the pirate group that belongs to the New World. The number of pirate groups that you destroy must not be less than 1,000.”
"Mission reward: Talent points 5, Darkness points 10,000.”
It was obvious that this mission was the last part of the Pirates of the Job series. The rewards were higher than the previous two missions, but the difficulty was also higher.
The mission required the number of pirates to be no less than 1,000. This was not a small number. A pirate group with 1,000 people was definitely considered a medium-sized pirate group. This was because the strong were respected in the pirate world. If one did not have enough strength, it was impossible to support a pirate group with 1,000 people. A pirate group of this level was highly valued by the navy. It was impossible for a pirate group that was slightly weaker to survive.
This was especially so since the system's requirement was to eliminate a pirate group of this size in the Four Seas. The first half of the Great Sea Route and the New World each made it even more difficult. Although there were many pirate groups in the New World, the ones who survived were all elites. Moreover, more than half of them were taken over by the Four Emperors Pirate Group, so the remaining pirate groups were not easy to deal with.
Of course, this was only for now. Gu Xuan's goal was to become a great pirate on the level of the Four Pirate Kings. At that time, destroying a mere 1,000-man pirate group would be a piece of cake.
After completing the three missions to attack the navy, Gu Xuan was prepared to head to the East China Sea as soon as possible.
There were many ways to enter the East China Sea from the great sea route, but most of them had to pass through the windless zone. For example, the straw hat pirates in the anime took the inverted mountain. One of the routes was a one-way trip. If one wanted to return to the East China Sea, they had to find another route. However, no matter which route they took, it was not as safe as directly coming to the Red Earth Continent.
However, Gu Xuan was a pirate. Naturally, he could not go through the Red Earth Continent that was controlled by the World Government. He did not think that he had the ability to go through the Red Earth Continent. If he was going back to the South Sea, Gu Xuan had many ways because he had entered the great sea route from the South Sea. However, this was his first time going to the East Sea.
Spreading out the map in his hand, Gu Xuan began to study it seriously. There was a pretty good entrance to the East China Sea from the great sea route. There was no need to go through the windless zone, but it was somewhat similar to the situation of the Grass Hat Pirates leaving the East China Sea. They needed to go through the current. Once they caught up with the current, they could rush into the East China Sea.
However, Gu Xuan quickly rejected this idea. Although it was fast to enter, it was also dangerous. First of all, he needed a ship that was strong enough. However, he was alone now, so how could he drive such a ship? Moreover, he was more worried that if an accident happened on the way, what would happen if he fell into the sea?
With his status as a Demon Fruit user, if he were to fall into the sea under such circumstances, he would only die. He did not think that he would be as lucky as the straw hat Luffy and the others.
"So…"
Gu Xuan looked at the unmarked area on the nautical chart. That was the windless zone.
The windless zone wasn't really windless, but because of the special geographical environment, the wind rarely blew here. However, the weather here was unpredictable. What was even more terrifying was that countless sea kings lived in the windless zone. Ordinary people didn't dare to walk in the windless zone because they were afraid of the sea kings in the windless zone.
Gu Xuan wondered if he was particularly afraid of sea kings. Although walking through the windless zone was dangerous, the process was under his control.
In fact, if he had the ability to fly like Raffet, he wouldn't have to worry so much. He could directly fly over the windless zone and wouldn't need to study so much.
Walking in the windless zone was also a test for Gu Xuan. Through the system's innate ability, his strength had rapidly increased, but he also needed a certain amount of training. Walking in the windless zone was a kind of training, because he had to maintain vigilance and battle at all times.
Gu Xuan piloted his small boat and swayed in the direction he had set. It had been quite some time since the system had issued the fledgling mission. He did not know if the Grass Hat Pirates were still in the East China Sea at this time. If they had already left the East China Sea, then his mission would have failed. Fortunately, there was no punishment for failing the mission. Otherwise, he would have suffered a huge loss.
"Hmm?"
Gu Xuan let out a soft sound of surprise and looked ahead in surprise. He saw a dark cloud approaching. No, to be precise, it was a large number of ships. However, there were too many of them, and the hull was black, so it looked like a dark cloud.
