By then, the vice captain of the Shark Teeth Pirates and the invincible knight-level "White Shark" Skook would be nothing in front of him.
He would have the ability to go anywhere he wanted and establish a pirate crew that belonged to him alone. He would no longer have to look at anyone's eyes.
The most important thing was … to stay away from the crazy captain … the further the better!
Stroking the black sculpture, he clearly knew that in this shipwreck sculpture, there was an evil undead spirit that hated the order and civilized world. It always wanted to launch the most tragic revenge on the human world.
But whether it was blindness, confidence, or desperation, he was confident that he could completely suppress it after changing his profession.
"With this, I, One-eyed Beck, will definitely become a powerful Extraordinaire. One day, I will sit on the throne of the Pirate King of the Black Sea!"
Greed made him desperate because the effect of this secret treasure of the sea was too powerful.
Every time he sank a warship of the civilized world of the order, the pirate ship would gain a certain degree of enhancement. As long as he kept hunting warships, it would not be a dream to become a real legendary warship in the end.
Coupled with the "Shipwreck Mourner", the Extraordinaire profession that was symbiotic with the ship, Beck was confident that he would become the King of the Black Sea sooner or later.
All of this made him decide to openly attack the warship. After he succeeded once, he would open a big net in this area and complete another hunt!
.....
"Captain, there is news from the observation deck. Some garbage discarded by the ship was found on the sea surface. We are chasing in the right direction! "The first mate on the Warrior reported to his captain with a face full of excitement.
"Hahaha, order the mooring captain to move forward at full speed. Don't let this little rat slip away under our eyes."
"Yes, sir!"
Whoosh — Whoosh —
Then, there were energetic shouts from outside. Everyone was excited, as if the bounty was just at their fingertips.
Because their captain had always preached to them that One-eyed Beck had fought against warships before. He was definitely not their opponent. Find him and defeat him. The merit and the bounty belonged to every crew member who contributed.
In fact, the captain of the Warrior was able to climb to his current position because he was really capable. He was not fooling the crew, but he made a reasonable judgment based on common sense. He also believed that his judgment would not be wrong.
The wind direction and speed were good, and the Warrior was able to reach a speed of six knots with full sail. After being separated from the Silver Wing for two hours, they finally caught up with the Black Sail Pirate Ship that they had been anticipating as they wished.
The pirate ship was parked on the side of Rocky Island. It seemed that they didn't expect anyone to discover them. When they saw the Warrior's aggressive approach, they had just begun to raise the anchor and sail.
He hastily accepted the challenge!
When the naval officers on the Warrior saw the pirates running away in a panic, their morale was boosted. They immediately turned downwind and prepared to intercept the pirate ship that was slowly moving away.
The cannons were opened and the blades were sharpened!
"Tsk —! Do you really think you can defeat us? That idiot didn't even realize that he had fallen into a trap. " The pirate officers hiding in the dark corners of the pirate ship sneered at the same time. They looked at the Warrior as if they were looking at pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
Because the sail warships relied on the wind to propel themselves, there was no need to doubt the importance of the wind in naval battles. There was no absolute advantage in having the upper wind or the lower wind. Instead, there were advantages in all kinds of battle tactics.
Although the Warrior's attack from the lower wind could open up all two layers of cannons and completely unleash its firepower, it could also block the enemy's escape route. However, it didn't expect to fall into the pirates' trap.
He put down the monocular in his hand.
"Gagon, the prophecy this time was good. All the captured naval officers are yours! " One-Eyed Beck was very satisfied with Wizard Gagon's prophecy this time. It was rare for him to be promised the spoils of war before the battle started.
"Gagaga, thank you, captain." A brown-skinned old man with a shriveled face wearing all kinds of bone ornaments opened his wrinkled mouth and laughed strangely. His black tongue, black teeth, and black mouth were as terrifying and disgusting as a Black Mamba.
"Open the cannons and slow down. Don't scare away our guests."
"Yes, captain!"
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The intense cannon battle started first. The jumping cannonballs flew, the planks of the ships exploded, and the masts were destroyed. There were unlucky people on both sides of the warships that were directly crushed into meat paste.
"Ah —"
"My leg …"
No matter who was the hunter and who was the prey, the cannon battle on the sea was tragic. It was very fair to both the pirates and the navy.
The pirate ship that was at the upper wind used its advantage of the wind to slowly approach the Warrior. It looked like they were going to forcefully launch a gang war.
On the other hand, the Warrior wanted to fully unleash the power of the cannons on its warship. It was fighting and moving at the same time, using the sea version of kiting tactics.
"Steady, gunner, fire all the cannonballs we have stored. If you want to compete with a warship in terms of firepower, it's still a few decades too early!"
"Yes, sir!"
In the flying cannonballs, the two ships gradually sailed out of the original water area. As long as they passed through the rock arm that extended from the rocky island, they would return to the deep water area.
At this time, a strange scene happened that made the officers and men of the Warrior feel strange.
The sails of the pirate ship were gradually retracted, and the ship began to slow down.
"Strange, what are they doing?"
The bearded captain of the Warrior put down the monocular in his hand. He didn't understand the pirates' intention, but in order to ensure the range of the cannons, he had to slow down.
"Long sail, lower …"
"Bang!" With a loud bang, the hull of the Warrior suddenly shook. The huge force even threw many of the sailors on the deck into the sea.
"Not good, we've hit a reef!"
The crew's shout made the bearded captain's face suddenly turn pale. He was so focused on stopping the pirate ship from escaping that he forgot to observe the situation of the sea. He had made the most unforgivable mistake.
The sailors on the ship instantly panicked.
No one knew better than him the consequences of losing mobility in this kind of pursuit. The bearded captain painfully closed his eyes and said, "Continue to fire the cannons to stop the pirate ship from approaching. Send a distress signal and inform the ship to defend and wait for Colonel Gör's rescue!"
This was a difficult choice for someone who had always been proud and arrogant. However, compared to his life, his pride was no longer important.
As the flashing red signal flare rushed into the sky, the pirate ship began to move.
Seven or eight small wooden boats were lowered into the water. There were three pirates on each boat. One of them held a torch, and the other two were responsible for rowing the boat. There was also something covered with canvas in the boat.
This time, even without the bearded captain's order, the experienced officers knew what these damn pirates were trying to do. They were f * cking setting the ship on fire!
What kind of hatred was this? Their ship was stranded on the reef, and they still sent a suicide squad to burn the ship?!
"Quick, fire the cannons and sink these fire boats!" The captain's order was almost hysterical, but the cannoneers were not in a good mood either. They quickly reloaded the cannons and fired wildly into the distance.
However, because the ship was stranded, it caused the entire ship to flip over. The cannons on the side facing the pirate ship were all facing the sky. Not long after the ship was launched, the cannons sank two ships. But when the pirates came closer, the cannons could no longer hit them.
What's more, the cannons on the pirate ship never stopped firing throughout the entire process. The continuous barrage of cannon fire suppressed the officers and men of the Warrior to the point that they couldn't even lift their heads. The lifeboats that were lowered were also targeted by the cannon fire, completely cutting off any hope of escape for the marines.
"Lunatics, lunatics, how dare they store so much flammable kerosene on the ship. Aren't they afraid of turning themselves into fireballs?!"
However, at this time, no amount of cursing could save the Warrior from its fate.
