At this moment, the Chosen One Pirate Crew also learned of this matter and discovered that the Empress Pirates were not far from them.
Knowing that the Empress Pirates had seized a considerable amount of treasure, a glint of greed flashed in Lin Muxue's eyes, and she decided to approach and seize the treasure.
Li Cang hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade her: "Captain, it's best not to go. We just managed to get some treasure ourselves."
Lin Muxue frowned: "What, do you think I'm no match for Liu Huangyi?"
"Of course not, Xue Er, you are the strongest. It's just that her abilities are too overpowering. Even women can be petrified or charmed by her. So even if you are stronger than her, it would be difficult to fully exert your strength. Many pirate crews have suffered greatly at the hands of Liu Huangyi, and so far, no pirate crew has successfully seized treasure from her."
Lin Muxue confidently replied: "Then our Chosen One Pirate Crew will be the first. Besides, I cannot be petrified. Those women, how can their hearts compare to mine? Set sail and approach!"
"Yes, Captain."
Soon, the Chosen One Pirate Crew arrived first, as they were closer to the Empress Pirates.
As the Chosen One Pirate Crew's ship reached the island, the Empress Pirates were already waiting.
Liu Huangyi stood gracefully, her eyes exuding arrogance and allure.
"Well, if it isn't the captain of the Chosen One Pirate Crew, Lin Muxue, the Rumble Rumble Fruit Ability User?"
Liu Huangyi's lips parted slightly, her voice melodious yet carrying a hint of danger.
"What, have you come to deliver treasure to me?"
As she spoke, Liu Huangyi, dressed in a purple cheongsam, slightly turned her body, showcasing her curvaceous figure in a perfect S-shape. Her eyes shimmered, and she subtly activated the power of the Love-Love Fruit.
Lin Muxue felt a sudden tremor in her heart, an inexplicable surge of affection, but she suppressed it.
However, many on the ship were instantly charmed, some even petrified, while others took out gleaming golden treasure coins and handed them to Liu Huangyi.
"Empress, this treasure is for you."
"Ah, thank you, young man."
Liu Huangyi thanked him with a flying kiss, and the crew member was so overwhelmed with happiness that he nearly fainted, drooling.
Lin Muxue's expression darkened, and she kicked the crew member away, scolding angrily.
"Pathetic! Snap out of it!"
The crew member regained his senses, his heart shaken.
Even Li Cang was deeply affected, as he was a Boiling Sheep, almost succumbing to the charm.
Lin Muxue snorted: "The Love-Love Fruit is indeed powerful. I saw it when I was choosing, but I didn't pick it, thinking it was suitable for desserts. But I didn't expect its abilities to be so strong. However, no fruit can surpass my Rumble Rumble Fruit. As for being charmed and petrified by you, that's impossible."
Liu Huangyi chuckled lightly, with a hint of mockery.
"That's not necessarily true. After all, Lin Muxue, you may seem aloof, but you're actually quite open. What you said when faced with the Truth-Truth Fruit is known to the whole world. So petrifying you is still possible."
Mentioning this incident filled Lin Muxue with shame and anger.
"Shut up! Today, I'll turn your beautiful skin into charcoal! You won't be able to use your charming abilities."
Deep down, even Lin Muxue felt a twinge of jealousy. She had always considered herself a peerless beauty, but Liu Huangyi was even more beautiful and had a better figure.
Liu Huangyi pouted and cooed, "How could you have such a cruel thought towards me? It's so frightening. Please don't use your lightning on me. Just give me the treasure and leave, and I'll reward you with a kiss, not just a blown one."
This made the crew on the ship's heart flutter, but it was directed at Lin Muxue.
Lin Muxue found herself uncontrollably tempted, almost on the verge of handing over the treasure from her ship. But she was no ordinary person. She gritted her teeth and, with sheer willpower, steadied her mind. She was shaken, realizing this was more troublesome than she had imagined. Knowing she couldn't engage in further conversation with Liu Huangyi, she let out an angry shout.
"Enough nonsense! Hand over the treasure you stole, or face the terror of the Rumble Rumble Fruit."
"How could I possibly give it to you?"
Crackle! Zap!
Instantly, electric currents surged around Lin Muxue, sizzling and sparking.
Seeing this, Liu Huangyi curled her lips into a cold smile, showing no fear.
Liu Huangyi moved swiftly, appearing behind Lin Muxue in a flash, and kicked out.
"Fragrant Foot!"
Lin Muxue was startled by the speed, realizing Liu Huangyi's strength was formidable. She sensed this kick was no ordinary one—getting hit could mean more than just being charmed; it could petrify her.
Lin Muxue's body erupted with lightning, forcing Liu Huangyi to quickly retract her kick.
"Impressive ability, both offensive and defensive."
Lin Muxue remained silent, her hands continuously unleashing bolts of lightning.
"Eight Million Volts, Discharge!"
Electric currents shot out relentlessly. Liu Huangyi activated her Observation Haki, nimbly dodging the incoming lightning. As she circled behind Lin Muxue, she formed a heart shape with her hands and fired a pink beam at her.
"Mero Mero Mero, Sweet Sweet Gust!"
Lin Muxue realized her lightning couldn't block it. She transformed into a streak of lightning to dodge, but the pirates behind her were hit, instantly turning to stone. She felt a pang of dread.
Lin Muxue increased her lightning output, countless bolts striking down around her. The explosions were relentless, shattering rocks and instantly setting trees ablaze, turning them to charcoal.
Lin Muxue pushed her Observation Haki to its limits. Her strength was on par with the likes of Hancock among the pirates.
While swiftly evading, she continuously launched Sweet Sweet Gusts.
Boom! Crash!
The bombardment continued, the ground cratered wherever the lightning struck, trees instantly charred.
The two exchanged blows, the battle reaching a fever pitch.
Lin Muxue's lightning attacks were wide-ranging and devastating. Liu Huangyi began to feel the danger and cast a seductive glance at Li Cang and the crew.
"Can you bear to see me in such a state? Can you bear to see my beauty destroyed by her lightning? Come help me, and I'll reward you."
Instantly, many crew members were charmed, even Li Cang, whose eyes turned into heart shapes. They all charged at Lin Muxue, brandishing their weapons. Li Cang clenched his fists, the power of the Might Might Fruit surging.
"Don't harm our Empress!"
Lin Muxue's expression changed. Not only could she petrify, but she could also bewitch minds to this extent.
Lin Muxue's lightning erupted, sweeping out, but she had to control it. She electrocuted the charging crew, but Li Cang, with his strength, withstood it and charged forward, delivering a powerful punch.
Lin Muxue dodged, the massive rock behind her shattered by the force of the punch. She roared in anger.
"Wake up! You're really embarrassing me! You can't accomplish anything and only make things worse!"
Lin Muxue was furious and immediately found herself surrounded, not only by Liu Huangyi but also by the crew of the Empress Pirates. Besides Liu Huangyi, there were other formidable members as well.
However, Liu Huangyi didn't like men—to be precise, she hadn't found any worth her attention—so the ship only had female crew members. Otherwise, she could have recruited more crew members and made the Pirate Crew even stronger.
...
At this moment, the Dominant Feather Pirate Crew was approaching.
A crew member from the intelligence department reported, "Captain, the Chosen One Pirate Crew has arrived first and is already engaged in battle with the Empress Pirates."
Ye Yu was in a good mood and sighed lightly, "It seems our harvest will be even greater now."
