In front of that powerful slash, even sturdy city walls couldn't withstand a single slash from the two Sword Masters.
They had only been fighting for less than two minutes, and all the surrounding buildings had already been completely destroyed.
Pami's body was covered in many deep sword wounds that went all the way to the bone. In contrast, Nox's body had no injuries except for torn clothes, at most leaving some white sword marks on his body.
"I have seen your sword road. Before you die, let me show you my sword road."
"Limitless - Sky Breaking Sword Draw"
Fūsetsu was returned to its sheath, then drawn out in an instant, followed by a massive sword energy slash 150 meters long.
The sword energy slash was razor-sharp and incredibly fast, even breaking the sound barrier. Pami couldn't even react and only instinctively blocked the sword in front of himself.
"Crack!!!!"
However, in front of that powerful and sharp slash, even Pami's longsword, which was covered in Busoshoku Haki, was cut off. He could even clearly feel that his throat had been cut off!
"Please..."
Pami knew his life was fading away and tried to reach out, wanting to ask Nox for something.
"Sorry, I refuse!"
Nox turned and left indifferently. He naturally knew what Pami's request was.
But he wouldn't agree. He wasn't the type of person who felt sympathy for his opponents and would agree to their requests because of a fight.
Moreover, this person in front of him, whose name he didn't even know, wasn't strong enough for Nox to feel any sympathy.
"Bang!!!!"
Unable to hear the answer he wanted before death, Pami's unwilling eyes couldn't close, but his body had already fallen.
"Everyone, start plundering!!!"
Nox shouted loudly at the Pirates behind him who were eager to move.
"Long live the Headhunting Swordsman!!!"
"Charge!!"
"I want to plunder, I want treasure!!"
"..."
Upon hearing Nox's words, the many Pirates excitedly jumped off the ship and rushed into the Pano Kingdom to plunder. Anyone who dared to resist was killed.
Immediately, the originally peaceful Pano Kingdom was invaded by a group of Pirates who burned, killed, and plundered at will, turning it into a living hell.
Nox saw all of this. He didn't say anything about it because he was the culprit, and he was also the one who benefited the most.
Nox didn't pay much attention to those Pirates. Instead, he walked straight towards the palace. As for the noble district, he had already sent Kano and the others to search it. The palace would naturally be handled by himself.
"King, let's go quickly. General Pami won't be able to stop those vicious Pirates."
Inside the palace, an old minister was urging the Pano King, who was seated on the throne.
"Prime Minister, as King, how could I abandon my people and run away alone? You don't need to say any more."
The Pano King shook his head and said firmly.
"Very good, you are a King who loves his people very much. However, unfortunately, you don't have enough strength to protect your Kingdom. Therefore, to prevent your Kingdom from suffering greater losses, please hand over all the treasures and so on."
Nox appeared silently in front of the Pano King and looked down at him as he spoke.
"Guards, protect the King!!!"
The Prime Minister subconsciously shouted when he saw Nox's sudden appearance.
"Thump, thump, thump!!!"
There were still some guards in the palace, and they quickly rushed in.
"Hmph!!!"
However, as Nox's Haoshoku erupted and enveloped these soldiers, they instantly fell down.
"My patience is limited. Do you choose to hand them over yourself, or shall I go and search for them myself?"
"If you hand them over yourselves, you can at least survive. If I have to find them myself, you won't have a life left."
The King and the Prime Minister were not enveloped by Nox's Haoshoku, so they were not stunned. He could now control the coverage area of his Haoshoku freely.
Some Kingdoms have hidden treasure vaults. If Nox were to search for them himself, he might not even find them. The best way was to have the King hand them over himself.
"As long as you promise not to harm my people, I will give you all the treasures in the Kingdom."
The Pano King said tremblingly.
"You are not qualified to negotiate with me. Either die, or hand over all the treasures. My patience is limited. You have three seconds to consider!"
Nox threatened the Pano King by placing the Fūsetsu Sword at his neck.
"I, I will hand them over!!!"
Feeling the chill on his neck, the Pano King finally bowed to death. As long as he was alive, the Kingdom could still exist and recover.
"Let's go, take me to the national treasury!"
Nox said with a satisfied smile.
As for the treasures in other parts of the palace, Karoo and others would naturally come to search for them later.
Since Nox was leading the team, he would definitely take the lion's share. The other Pirates could only follow and get some scraps.
"This is the national treasury!"
The Pano King quickly led Nox to the national treasury.
"Just this little bit?"
When Nox arrived at the national treasury, he saw that there was only this much treasure, adding up to less than 500 million. His expression immediately turned ugly.
This little bit of treasure didn't look like a Kingdom's national treasury at all.
"The Pano King was poor and couldn't pay the celestial tribute, which is why he couldn't join the World Government member states."
The Pano King heard Nox say this and quickly explained.
"Hmph, I think you're being dishonest!"
Nox snorted coldly.
"A mere hidden vault, do you think you can hide it from my Kenbunshoku Haki?"
Nox slashed at a sturdy wall next to the national treasury. The wall was two meters thick, but under Nox's slash, it was directly split open.
After the wall was split open, another national treasury was revealed. The treasure inside was three times more than the one outside.
"It's over!!!"
These treasures were the accumulation of the Pano Kingdom over many years. Even when they couldn't pay the celestial tribute, they hadn't used them.
Because previous Pano Kings knew that these treasures could only be used at a moment of life and death, or even after the Pano Kingdom was destroyed, to rebuild the Kingdom.
Even though strong individuals from other Kingdoms had used Kenbunshoku Haki to probe and hadn't discovered it, how could this Pirate discover it? This made the Pano King very confused.
"You can go and die!"
After finding the Pano Kingdom's hidden vault, Nox directly ended the Pano King's life.
"If it weren't for your own eyes and emotions telling me, I wouldn't have found it either."
Only after the Pano King died did Nox murmur an explanation to the dead Pano King.
