Chapter 682 - My Doomsday Territory

In the novel "My Doomsday Territory," Chapter 682 begins with a tense scene on a beach, where the notorious pirates fixate their gaze upon the enigmatic figure known as the "Pale Abyss." Despite the high bounty on him, little is known about his capabilities. The pirates hope that the presence of several powerful entities can force the "Pale Abyss" to reveal some of his abilities—information that would be invaluable. A peculiar scene unfolds as white phlegm is launched towards a mysterious figure in a black robe. Just before impact, tendrils of black mist appear, enveloping the phlegm and disintegrating it completely in mid-air, leaving not a trace and demonstrating an unexpected consideration for the environment. The visage under the "Pale Abyss's" hood, gaunt and pallid, momentarily shows surprise before settling into calm. With a snap of his fingers, a black-robed figure erupts into motion, causing the ground to tremble and creating a void on the beach. The black-robed figure darts across the sky at immense speed, the acceleration so abrupt that the robe disintegrates, revealing a hollow humanoid form beneath. This being, nearly three meters tall, is clad in bronze skin and muscle with an intimidating glare. Resembling a puppet yet exuding unmistakable vitality, this "Bronze Armored Man" unleashes an aura that forces nearby pirates to retreat kilometers away. His mere presence reveals his power: Domain-level strength. Among the observing pirates, "Dark Whisper" Milashiel feels the weight of the situation. As a major pirate leader, he realizes the "Bronze Armored Man" rivals him in power. While he might edge a victory in a desperate fight, the revelation that this is but one member of the dreaded "Abyssal Pirates," and an unheralded one at that, is sobering. As tensions rise, a character named Lorrin considers using a sizable sniper rifle on the "Bronze Armored Man," only for another figure, "Empty," to dart forward with silent grace. Unlike a rogue, "Empty" exhibits mastery over power and control, arriving silently before the "Bronze Armored Man" to draw a slender sword, catching the pirates off guard with his swiftness. The ensuing clash is explosive, with the "Bronze Armored Man" forced into the ground, creating shockwaves through the sand. Amidst a haze of dust and roaring forces, the two figures engage in a rapid chase, though "Empty" maintains the offensive. The swordplay is dazzling, carving craters and channels in the sand, with surges of seawater inundating the beach. To the untrained or less powerful observers, the combat is a blur of motion and sound, only glimpsed in flashes of light and explosion. As the crowd speculates, "Empty" proves to be even swifter than his Domain-level opponent but struggles against the latter's formidable defenses. Even with a third-tier divine weapon, "Empty's" attacks barely mark the "Bronze Armored Man," indicating his unusual durability. Undeterred, the "Bronze Armored Man" launches an impressive air-shattering blow that misses "Empty" by hair's breadth, his bronze skin flaring with red light, signaling an ancient power. As the bronze warrior's assault presses on, "Empty" deftly counters with a second sword, "Seamless," designed with the singular purpose of severance—it embodies laws specifically tailored to cut through. The unexpected maneuver cleaves the "Bronze Armored Man" cleanly. Inertia propels him yards away before his upper body collapses separately, unable even to retreat. Despite his efforts to reattach, he is visibly weakened. "Empty," his eyes cold and evaluative beneath his hat, shifts focus to the "Pale Abyss," exuding an eagerness to engage a more formidable adversary. Although words remain unspoken, his intentions are clear as he challenges the infamous pirate with a bounty of 59 million, hoping for a worthy contest. Incensed, "Pale Abyss" summons three more black-robed figures, revealing another "Bronze Armored Man," similar yet distinct in appearance, as the stakes escalate in this high-stakes confrontation. In this unfolding narrative, two massive centipede-like creatures rise, each with legs fashioned entirely from white bones. As the tension mounts, Lorrin and Zhushu Li step forward, bracing for the inevitable confrontation. The oppressive auras clash, dividing the very sky into contrasting hues. Simultaneously, the onlooking pirates, previously engrossed and haphazardly munching on snacks, now realize that the Black Skull Pirates and the Abyssal Pirate Group are standing on equal footing. Did "Swordmaster" really manage to slice through a Domain-level "Bronze Armored Man" with a single strike? This question lingers, as even the Reconciliation-level pirates present did not fully comprehend the swift sequence of events. Only “Dark Whisper” witnessed the decisive cut, yet he opts to remain silent. The outcome is clear: The "Bronze Armored Man" is still futilely attempting to reunite its bifurcated halves, seemingly sulking in its efforts. "Swordmaster" emerged victorious with decisive clarity. This prowess potentially signifies the might of a candidate for a general's position—a notable feat for any newcomer. The tension between the two formidable pirate groups crescendos as the atmosphere crackles with anticipation. The narrative points to an escalating rivalry and the emergence of a powerful new force within the ranks. As onlookers digest this turn of events, it's clear that the newcomers are not to be underestimated. The battlefield shifts, eyes now fixed on this intense encounter and the yet unforeseen consequences that will ripple through the pirate world.
