The Emperor’s Angel of Death

"What!?"

Salania took a step back in shock upon hearing this. In a sense, this person had grown up with her, and she had even considered forming a family with him. However, due to her father's strong opposition and the occasional gloomy attitude he displayed, she eventually dismissed the idea.

It seemed she finally understood why her father had reacted so strongly back then.

Seeing his actions exposed, Long Shadow's voice turned cold.

"Canelli, you bitch! It's all because of you! You've been the one bewitching Salania, making her interested in the Eternal Court! Pirates should be free and unrestrained, enjoying life and seizing the moment should be all that matters! Yet you're trying to drag us back into those boring rules! If it weren't for Viktor wanting you by name, I would have hung your head on the sails long ago!"

"You're a hopeless idiot. Do you think Viktor is trying to win you over because he's interested in your ass? He's been coveting the Void Dragon Pirates for a long time now."

"At least he won't restrict our freedom."

"I think your brain is really full of oil."

As soon as Canelli finished speaking, a shadow attacked from behind.

However, she didn't dodge or evade. A scream was heard, and a Shadow Walker clutching his arm fell to the ground.

Salania turned around abruptly and saw another Shadow Walker wiping his blade.

"Dragon Blade!"

The Shadow Walker nodded slightly towards Salania.

"Princess, we will always protect you."

She had previously thought that all the Shadow Walkers had betrayed her, but when she saw more than a dozen Shadow Walkers standing behind her, she was incredibly excited.

Then she turned back to look at her cousin, her gaze gradually turning cold.

She had made up her mind.

"Since Viktor dares to reach out, then I will chop off his dirty hand! I don't want bloodshed, but if a tumor has already formed, then I can only-"

As she spoke, she slowly drew the ancient longsword from her waist. This was the sword of the former Star Marshal of the Corso Fleet, and also the symbol of unity for this wandering clan.

".kill!"

With two loud booms, Salania looked around. Several doors on both sides of the palace exploded simultaneously, and a group of people rushed in.

"Salania, the Void Dragon Pirates are not your private property, and you're not the only one who gets to decide what happens to the Dragon Nest."

Several pirate barons strode in, their队伍有三四百人，很快把大殿周围空间占据, their forces numbering three to four hundred, quickly occupying the space around the hall. Among them were pirates in strange costumes, Gomorrah residents wearing Syndicate armor, Witch Spirits in revealing clothing, and silent, cold Nightmares.

"You want to hand over everyone's achievements to a queen who claims to be a god. We will never agree to that."

Looking at these pirate barons who had been extremely respectful to her in the past and had solemnly sworn to always be loyal, Salania narrowed her eyes slightly.

"It seems I have been too merciful to you in the past, to the point that you have forgotten one thing: rebels...must die!"

"That's not necessarily true, little princess."

The palace door suddenly opened, and a frivolous voice followed.

One of the five great Archons of the Blackheart Syndicate, Soul Hunter Valosian, strolled in leisurely. Behind him were hundreds of well-equipped Syndicate warriors, and outside the door came bursts of shouts and gunfire, as if the entire Dragon Nest was trembling in war.

"Valosian? How did you get in?"

Valosian laughed with his pale face, then dipped some hair oil from a box held by a Llama handmaiden and gently combed his hair before answering:

"How many people in the Void Dragon Pirates want you to step down, do you really not know? Then I think you are more suitable to stay in the bed of some powerful male, to be a real 'female warrior' instead of a pirate prince."

Then he turned his gaze to Canelli on the side.

"Ah, isn't this Steel-Eyed Raider, Queen Canelli? You, who are known to have racial purity fetish, how could you be willing to work for an ape? Even if you're down on your luck, it shouldn't be this bad. But don't worry, you'll soon become a noble trophy."

Canelli just smiled slightly. With a snap of her fingers, the huge Wyvern statue at the back of the palace split in the middle, and then five Wraithguards strode out, the weapons in their hands causing the pirates to subconsciously take a few steps back.

"The Court's fleet will crush your weak fantasies."

"Fleet? Ha, of course I know there's a fleet, but soon you'll see their wreckage."

Valosian didn't take those Wraithguards seriously, because he had specially arranged for many heavy weapons this time.

"Is that so."

Following a calm voice was a series of violent explosions. Sensing danger, Valosian immediately pounced to the side, and then the wreckage of a burning Marauder gunship smashed into the crowd. Some unlucky ones who couldn't dodge were directly crushed into a puddle and turned to ashes in the sea of fire.

"What—"

When Valosian got up, he only saw the strong light of the flames in his eyes. Many were burning, Syndicate warriors, Ugors, twisted Bloodreaper creations…

In the bright white storm of fire, several tall figures strode out, like the incarnations of gods depicted in ancient temples. Their armor was gorgeous and bright, the towering pointed winged helmets had carvings of phoenixes and flames, and a series of bright silver cloaks fluttered behind them. The war halberds in their hands burned with spiritual fire that was difficult to look at directly.

These Phoenix Guard were holding several heads in their hands. Valosian knew them, they were all barons who had been bought off by the Syndicate.

"When did you…"

Valosian felt very ridiculous when he heard himself say this, but suddenly he gritted his teeth and stood up abruptly.

"Hmph! Things won't end so easily! Attack!"

With an order, gunfire rang out, and the pirates and Syndicate warriors began to shoot, while the Shadow Walkers and Kurnathi who supported Salania also began to fight back. The Wraithguards began to fire starcannon - considering the environment here, Canelli replaced the original Wraithcannons with safer starcannons.

However, when the Phoenix Guard waved their war halberds, everything seemed to have become some kind of joke. It was like the Astartes crushing mortals. These warriors who inherited the ancient fire crushed those originally extremely deadly warriors, killers, duelists, or champions like crushing ants, turning them into ashes.

However, due to their small number, they really couldn't finish off so many opponents in a short time.

Just as this place fell into chaos, Valosian took the opportunity to escape. However, he was not trying to leave, but to carry out another task - Viktor told him that if the Dragon Nest was in danger of falling into the hands of the Eternal Court, then use the last resort.

The appearance of the Phoenix Guard made Valosian smell danger, but before that, he had to contact the fleet to see what the situation was.
