Huo Wu, hearing what Quan Yi said, curiously pressed, "Specifically, what requirements must they meet?"
Quan Yi smiled faintly, "Although we need to support Pirate Groups, we don't support just anyone.
"First, we don't support those who are truly evil.
"If they are the kind of evil people who burn, kill, loot, and commit all kinds of atrocities, we will directly exclude them.
"Second, they must have a certain foundation of strength. Our ships and equipment have been initially completed.
"Seizing islands should be done as quickly as possible.
"If their strength is too weak, we don't have the patience to wait for them to grow slowly.
"And the Purple Pearl Pirate Group downstairs is the best option that meets these two conditions."
Although Huo Wu was not clear about the personalities of these Pirate Groups, she could feel the strength of these people with her powerful mental power.
These fifty-odd people were all Soul Masters.
Moreover, the strongest among them was the woman who looked the youngest.
Although she didn't know her exact level, she knew that she was a Soul King-level powerhouse.
In addition, there were more than a dozen Soul Elders in the crowd, and the rest were Soul Masters at Level 20 or 30.
Although there were only fifty-odd people, the strength of this force should not be underestimated.
Huo Wu somewhat agreed with Quan Yi's statement.
Quan Yi continued to explain, "Did you see that woman? That's Purple Pearl, the leader of the Purple Pearl Pirate Group.
"Although her reputation is not well-known, she has nearly a thousand members under her command.
"Compared to other Pirate Groups, the Purple Pearl Pirate Group, under the leadership of Purple Pearl, only robs the wealth of Nobles and often helps impoverished fishing villages.
"Therefore, they can be regarded as 'righteous thieves' who rob the rich to help the poor.
"This is also the fundamental reason why I ultimately chose the Purple Pearl Pirate Group."
After listening to Quan Yi's explanation, Huo Wu's eyes towards Purple Pearl were no longer full of contempt.
"I didn't expect there to be such a heroic woman at sea. I've become a little interested in her."
Huo Wu's opinion of Purple Pearl had greatly improved.
At the same time, she agreed with Quan Yi's choice.
Moreover, the most important thing was that Quan Yi didn't seem to be interested in Purple Pearl's appearance.
This made Huo Wu secretly praise Quan Yi's performance.
"Haha, don't worry, we're here today to negotiate with her, and there will be a chance to get to know her."
Seeing the resistance in Huo Wu's heart dissipate, Quan Yi was relieved.
Huo Wu watched Purple Pearl's bold figure with great interest, and her interest in her grew stronger.
Quan Yi focused on the food in front of him.
With his appetite, this little bit of food couldn't fill his stomach at all, but it was indeed a good thing to be able to quietly enjoy the taste of the food.
...
Downstairs, Purple Pearl was enjoying the banquet in high spirits.
This time, they came to Han Hai City to celebrate her breakthrough to Soul King.
That's right, not long ago, she successfully broke through Level 50 and completed the absorption of her Soul Ring.
Although it was a personal breakthrough, it was a major event for the entire Pirate Group.
Purple Pearl's breakthrough greatly increased their strength, so they could conquer the surrounding Pirate Groups and expand their territory.
Of course, they had to celebrate such a happy event.
Moreover, Purple Pearl was only twenty-seven years old.
Although breaking through to Soul King at the age of twenty-seven was not considered a prodigious talent, she had enough potential.
As long as she cultivates diligently, it's almost certain that Purple Pearl will become a Soul Douluo.
Although Purple Pearl didn't say it, she was also picturing herself becoming the strongest pirate in the sea.
The lively banquet lasted until sunset.
A large group of drunken people finally stumbled out of the tavern.
It must be said that they are worthy of being Soul Masters; their drinking habits are different from ordinary people.
They drank straight from noon until evening.
Purple Pearl generously settled the astronomical bill and walked out of the tavern.
Her cheeks were flushed due to excessive alcohol intake.
However, as a Soul King, her body had a higher tolerance for alcohol.
She braced herself and instructed, "Everyone, disband for tonight and go back to rest well.
Tomorrow at noon, we'll gather at the pier. Do you all remember?"
"Yes, Boss!"
Although everyone was drunk, they listened carefully to Purple Pearl's instructions.
This shows Purple Pearl's prestige among this group of people.
Purple Pearl looked at the responding crowd and nodded in satisfaction, "Alright, disband."
As soon as she finished speaking, the large group slowly dispersed.
Some of them headed towards the city's brothels.
Purple Pearl didn't interfere too much with this. As long as they weren't forcibly abducting women, appropriate venting wasn't a big deal.
Seeing the crowd disperse, Purple Pearl also headed towards the hotel where she often stayed.
Few people walked on the dimly lit road.
The hotel wasn't located in the bustling city center, but rather near the west side.
This was because the coast was to the west, so even if something happened, they could quickly escape through the city gates.
After walking for a long time, she stopped in front of an ordinary-looking hotel.
Calling it a hotel, it was more like a regular guesthouse.
With her wealth, it was hard to imagine her staying in such a hotel.
However, she didn't linger and directly stepped into the ordinary hotel.
Walking into the hotel, she changed her bold demeanor and looked at a woman at the counter with a gentle expression.
The woman looked to be in her early thirties, but she had a voluptuous figure. Although her appearance wasn't stunning, she had a gentle, mature charm.
The woman was the owner of the hotel.
When the owner saw the purple figure pushing open the door, a beautiful smile appeared on her face.
"You're here."
The owner walked out from behind the counter and threw herself into Purple Pearl's arms.
Purple Pearl hugged the owner and replied affectionately, "Yes, it's rare to come back, so I'll stay here for a night."
As she spoke, Purple Pearl's hands slowly moved down the owner's back.
Quietly, her hands covered the plumpness behind the owner.
The owner not only didn't resist such frivolous behavior, but instead stared at Purple Pearl with blurred eyes.
It was the look that Quan Yi occasionally gave Huo Wu.
A gaze filled with the fire of desire.
It seemed that these two were clearly not in an ordinary intimate relationship between women.
Purple Pearl's eyes ignited with the same flame, and she whispered, "I've kept you waiting."
As they spoke, their breathing became more rapid, and the two figures slowly moved closer in the dim light.
Just then, a tactless cough sounded.
"Ahem, you two, there are still people here, please be mindful."
The sudden sound made Purple Pearl's hair stand on end. She immediately protected the female shopkeeper, her eyes quickly scanning in the direction of the voice.
Two tall figures were sitting on the sofa in the hall, she didn't know when.
How is this possible? The door didn't open, when did they come in?
This ability to conceal their presence is extraordinary.
Purple Pearl's inner alarm bells were ringing, and her expression became extremely grave.
