As the intense sounds of combat erupted inside the Chaos Bar, the gang responsible for maintaining order on Little Mushroom Island immediately rushed over.
After a brief investigation, they learned that the conflict inside the bar was between the "Wicked Sniper" Alvin and several pirates who had attempted to kill him.
As the sounds of battle gradually subsided, the gang members cautiously advanced toward the entrance.
Fighting was strictly forbidden in designated non combat zones. That rule had been established by their organization long ago.
——
Inside the Chaos Bar.
Every pirate who had attacked Alvin now lay motionless on the floor.
The bartender trembled uncontrollably beneath the counter, too terrified to even peek outside.
Alvin paid him no attention. He was currently focused on his system panel.

"System, consume 28 million Bounty Points to enhance my physical strength, and consume 30 million Bounty Points to enhance my Observation Haki."
As the Bounty Points counter dropped to zero, Alvin immediately felt a powerful surge course through his body.
His physical strength rose to the level equivalent of a 66 million Berries pirate.
His Observation Haki proficiency increased to 50/100.
"Tsk… A 66 million Berries level physique, and my Observation Haki has nearly doubled. I feel stronger than ever."
A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
In the next moment, he walked to the bar counter and said calmly, "Bring me something to eat. And three glasses of milk."
The bartender slowly stood up, his voice trembling. "Y yes, please wait a moment. I will prepare it immediately."
He hurried into the kitchen without daring to delay.
Just then, the gang members entered.
The moment they stepped inside, shock spread across their faces.
They had not expected that in an eight against one situation, Alvin would be the sole survivor.
Alvin slowly turned his head toward them. The men instinctively swallowed hard.
"You are here? Then clean this place up. It is affecting my appetite."
"Wicked Sniper…"
"Stop." Alvin's tone turned slightly cold. "Do not call me that. I dislike that title. It sounds unpleasant."
The squad leader froze mid sentence.
He could still sense the faint killing intent lingering around Alvin.
He dared not provoke him.
With a subtle gesture, he signaled his men to begin working.
The gang members quickly dragged the corpses outside and wiped away the bloodstains on the wooden floor.
After everything was cleaned, the squad leader lowered his head respectfully.
"Lord Alvin, our boss wishes to meet you. May we arrange it?"
"No need. Just do not disturb me."
The squad leader felt a knot in his throat. It had been years since he had felt so powerless on these islands.
Still, he forced himself to respond.
"Yes. I will inform our boss."
He then withdrew with his men.
At that moment, the bartender emerged with a tray.
"Lord Alvin, your meal and milk."
He placed the dishes carefully on the counter and immediately retreated.
Alvin glanced at the empty bar.
"Strange. Are you not all used to scenes like this?"
He shrugged and began eating without concern.
…
After finishing his meal, Alvin did not slow down.
He began systematically sweeping through the Dareleka Islands.
Any pirate with a bounty that crossed his path was eliminated.
Among them, "Ghost Assassin" Lily Moen, who carried a bounty of 43 million Berries, was shot down by Alvin.
For a time, tension gripped the entire island chain.
Many residents became restless.
Some even directed their frustration at the gang organization that collected protection fees yet failed to provide protection.
The gang leaders were equally troubled.
Even Lily Moen with a 43 million Berries bounty had fallen to Alvin. What were they supposed to do against someone like that?
Interestingly, nearly all the individuals Alvin killed were wanted pirates.
To outsiders, his actions were puzzling.
As a pirate himself, he could not legally claim Marine issued bounties.
Why would he hunt others with bounties?
No one could understand his motives.
At this moment, several gang bosses gathered to discuss the crisis.
"What did the Marines say?"
"They told us to stall him. Captain Bacchus is already sailing this way."
"We cannot stall him. Almost every bounty holder on these islands is dead."
"Even if we cannot stall him, we must try. Only the Marines can deal with him."
"…"
——
While the gang leaders debated desperately, Alvin had already returned to his hotel on Garbage Mountain.
After an entire day of relentless combat, even he felt some fatigue.
He planned to rest one more day before departing the Dareleka Islands.
After all, nearly every pirate with a bounty here had already been eliminated.
The results, however, were excellent.
Although he failed to obtain the Armament Haki drop he desired, he had accumulated a massive amount of Bounty Points.
120 million Bounty Points.
Back in his room, he ordered a large quantity of food. After replenishing his strength, he intended to further enhance his abilities.
Unfortunately, there was no Sea King meat available today. He truly appreciated that rich, energy dense meat.
After finishing his meal, Alvin immediately began allocating points.
This time, he intended to push his Observation Haki to its maximum and trigger a qualitative evolution.
He sat cross legged on the carpet in the center of the room and focused inward.
"System, consume 50 million Bounty Points to enhance Observation Haki."
In an instant, Alvin felt his perception expand dramatically.
His awareness spread outward in all directions, reaching a terrifying range and clarity.
[Ding~]
[Host's normal Observation Haki has reached max level. The next step will be to unlock special Observation Haki. Please choose a type.]
[Special types of Observation Haki include: Voice of All Things (representative figure is Roger); Emotion Perception and Influence (representative figure is Queen Otohime); Super Long-Distance Perception (representative figures are Eneru, Fujitora); Future Sight (representative figure is Shanks), etc...]
Alvin stared at the system prompt in disbelief.
If raising normal Observation Haki by ten points already required 10 million Bounty Points, then unlocking and upgrading a special branch would cost far more.
If maxing Observation Haki triggered a qualitative evolution, then Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki would inevitably undergo similar transformations at their limits.
That meant even greater expenditures in the future.
Kill.
He need to kill more people.
