Since it was a freighter, and it was loaded with a large amount of cargo, it was impossible for the ship to speed up. According to an ordinary cruise ship, it would take about a week to reach the Plentiful Edge Continent smoothly, but for this freighter, it would take at least twice as long.
For the first week, the freighter was very safe along the way, and the weather had been calm. However, on the evening of the ninth day, a large dark cloud began to quickly cover the sky above the sea, stretching for dozens of nautical miles.
It was foreseeable that a common storm at sea was coming.
"Hurry up, tie the rope tight, don't let a box fall into the sea."
At this moment, on the deck, the boatswain with a muscular body opened his throat and shouted loudly to the sailors around him.
The sailors moved very quickly and cooperated very skillfully. With the help of a large number of fighting elves such as Wrist Strength and Gallant Strength, they finally managed to further strengthen the cargo with the rope before the storm arrived.
Soon, the storm came. In the blink of an eye, a storm appeared, accompanied by a burst of lightning and thunder, the sea became turbulent, and the 200,000-ton freighter that Kaede Sato and the others were on could not help but shake slightly.
"It's really a big storm. Come out, Lightning Bird, you can enjoy the taste of natural electricity tonight."
On the deck, Kaede Sato, who was using his superpower to block the wind and rain outside, looked at the turbulent sea with lightning falling, and could not help but say excitedly.
In the next second, under the shocked gazes of some nearby sailors, Kaede Sato released the legendary elf, Lightning Bird.
A white light suddenly appeared, and the Lightning Bird suddenly appeared in mid-air. At this moment, the lightning within a radius of several kilometers suddenly boiled, and then, as if responding to a summon, shot toward the Lightning Bird in mid-air.
In an instant, the Lightning Bird was bathed in lightning and soared freely in mid-air, but soon, all the lightning falling from the sky was absorbed by the Lightning Bird.
"It's actually the Lightning Bird. I didn't expect this person to have such a legendary elf hidden in his hands."
"Hmph, really, with such an almost invincible elf in his hands, what is there to be afraid of? What a coward."
In the captain's cabin, Yu Long Haidu also saw the scene of the Lightning Bird absorbing natural lightning at this time. His face first showed a shocked expression, then changed to a disdainful and jealous expression. In his heart, he criticized Kaede Sato for asking him to change the route.
If Kaede Sato knew what Yu Long Haidu was thinking at this moment, of course, he would definitely scold Yu Long Haidu for being an idiot. He really had nothing to be afraid of. What he was afraid of was that there were too many enemies and his teammates were too stupid. Once of of battle, the ship would be finished.
At that time, his mission this time would be over, and the 500 million alliance coins that he had originally obtained would fly back into the pockets of others.
Kaede Sato did not have so much time to pay attention to Yu Long Haidu, this stupid teammate. He was now carefully observing the situation of Pikachu. Yes, at this time, it was not only the Lightning Bird that was absorbing natural electricity, but also Pikachu.
Pikachu successfully condensed his prototype of the Lightning Bead in the paulownia forest, but there was still a long way to go before it was completed.
The first was the situation of the electricity storage. The newborn prototype of the Lightning Bead was like a black hole. Pikachu poured all of his electricity into it, but it was difficult to fill its stomach. In order to nourish his own Lightning Bead, Pikachu now had to pour almost half of the electricity produced in his body into it every day.
Kaede Sato thought about letting Pikachu pour the electricity in the mutated Lightning Bead into his own prototype of the Lightning Bead, but he found that the newborn prototype of the Lightning Bead could not withstand the Mythological Beast's electricity in the mutated Lightning Bead at present.
The electricity generated in the power station was too low-level and mottled, which would affect the quality of the final Lightning Bead that the prototype of the Lightning Bead would eventually become.
Therefore, Kaede Sato intended to let Pikachu absorb the pure electricity that was naturally born.
Natural electricity was naturally inferior to the electricity released by the Mythological Beast, but the quality was far better than artificial electricity. At the same time, the degree of overbearingness was much less than that of the Mythological Beast's electricity. It was just right for Pikachu to use to fill the stomach of his prototype of the Lightning Bead.
At present, it was a good choice for Pikachu to follow behind the Lightning Bird and eat the natural electricity. Now, with the Lightning Bird resisting most of the natural electricity for him, he was very comfortable to absorb a small part of the natural electricity.
At this time, in mid-air, the Lightning Bird attracted most of the lightning falling from the sky, and Pikachu followed behind the Lightning Bird with a longan-sized Lightning Bead on his head. From time to time, he would absorb one or two lightning bolts attracted by the Lightning Bird, looking happy and content.
As Pikachu's prototype of the Lightning Bead absorbed more and more natural electricity, the light it emitted became brighter and brighter, and its volume grew slightly. In the darkness, it was like a dazzling lamp that pierced the surrounding darkness.
Unfortunately, Pikachu's physical fitness was far inferior to the Lightning Bird, and although the natural electricity was not as overbearing as the electricity of the Mythological Beast, it should not be underestimated.
Therefore, after more than half an hour of bathing in the thunder of heaven and earth, Pikachu's body could not support it anymore. He had to stop absorbing natural electricity, and then flew back to Kaede Sato's shoulder with a tired face.
"You've worked hard. Go back to the Pokeball and have a good rest."
When Kaede Sato saw Pikachu's physical and mental exhaustion, he immediately stuffed a few sour gemstone energy cubes that Pikachu usually liked to eat into Pikachu's mouth, and then took out the Luxury Ball and put it in.
This time, Pikachu did not refuse. He had already experienced the comfortable environment in the Luxury Ball. It was very good to enter a beautiful sleep at this time.
Since the Lightning Bird was subdued by Kaede Sato, he had not eaten such delicious electricity for a long time. Although the amount of artificial electricity he usually absorbed was large and filling, the taste was always a lot worse. Now that he encountered this storm, he had to eat enough.
Therefore, the Lightning Bird was like a bottomless pit, attracting lightning from tens of kilometers around him.
For a time, everyone on the freighter saw a strange scene of thousands of lightning bolts in the sky above their heads. A large number of lightning bolts formed a huge lightning spider web with the Lightning Bird as the center.
At the same time, on a sea more than ten nautical miles southeast of the freighter, a luxurious cruiser was facing the crisis of capsizing. From time to time, there were violent explosions coming from its body, and the bright fire illuminated the darkness, which was extinguished by the rain in the blink of an eye.
Behind this luxurious cruiser, dozens of speedboats of different sizes were biting it like a group of sharks, and behind these speedboats were more than a dozen large ships. They impressively formed a powerful maritime fleet.
The flag painted on the top of the huge ship at the head of this maritime fleet was a ferocious flag of a skeleton.
