In this stormy night, the freighter full of goods slowed down again and again for the sake of safety. It was moving at the speed of a turtle on the sea.
However, compared to the storm outside, everyone on the freighter focused their attention on the Lightning Bird in the night sky. The lightning spider web that covered dozens of kilometers was too visually impactful. It was hard not to notice it.
"Sir Kaede Sato, is it okay to continue like this? Your Lightning Bird has been in this state for nearly half an hour. "
Under the instigation of the people on the ship, a crew member who recently got along well with Kaede Sato came to Kaede Sato nervously and asked respectfully.
Indeed, the current state of the Lightning Bird really made the people on the ship more worried. Perhaps because it had attracted too much lightning, the Lightning Bird was now completely covered in lightning, forming a lightning ball that emitted a large amount of lightning.
Moreover, the longer the Lightning Bird absorbed lightning, the larger the lightning ball became. At the same time, it became more and more unstable, constantly spewing out large amounts of lightning, as if it could explode at any time.
Most of the people on the freighter had already gotten over the initial surprise of seeing the Lightning Bird and the lightning spider web created by it. Instead, they were worried about whether the current state of the Lightning Bird would cause any adverse effects on them.
"Don't worry, it's okay. The Lightning Bird is originally an expert in playing with lightning. Now that its strength has reached the Heavenly King Stage, its control of lightning energy has reached the peak. This little bit of lightning can't do anything to it. It's just using the power of lightning to temper its body, and from the looks of it, it should be over soon."
Kaede Sato heard this, smiled slightly, and then replied indifferently.
Everyone on the ship was now focused on Kaede Sato, the trainer of the Lightning Bird. At this time, when they heard him say this and saw his calm expression, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If there was anyone who knew and cared about the Lightning Bird the most, it would naturally be Kaede Sato. Now that Kaede Sato said so, they were naturally relieved.
"Attention everyone, there's a situation in the southeast."
But before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, a lookout on the observatory with a pair of binoculars seemed to have discovered something terrible. He suddenly shouted into the loudspeaker in his hand and pressed the button to send out an emergency signal.
The lookout's actions made the people on the ship immediately nervous, and then they turned their eyes to the southeast.
They saw that on the southeast sea, a cruiser with red flashing lights was moving quickly towards them. Coupled with the occasional burst of flames on it made it very abrupt in the dark rainy night.
"Is it a shipwreck? And it seems to be being chased by pirates. Lightning bird, Lightning, Lightning bird, stop and return to the deck. "
"Everyone, get into position....
Hearing this, Kaede Sato quickly took out an infrared telescope from the space bag, and then used it to observe the situation on the southeast sea surface. Then, when he saw the situation on the southeast sea surface, he immediately used telepathy to speak to the lightning bird and the other people on the ship.
When Lightning bird heard Kaede Sato's words, it immediately stopped and gave up on absorbing lightning to refine its body. It then slowly landed on the top of the cargo ship's lookout.
The other crew members heard Kaede Sato's order and quickly released their Wisps. They began to perform their duties and entered a state of readiness.
Kaede Sato saw this situation and nodded with satisfaction. In the next second, his eyes flashed blue, and he directly teleported to the captain's room. He then met with Imperial Dragon Kaito, who had also entered a state of readiness.
"I just received a distress signal. The ship in the southeast is the Alliance's ship. It is currently being attacked by the Black Shark Pirates. In your opinion, should we help?"
Seeing Kaede Sato appear, Imperial Dragon Kaito immediately stepped forward and asked for Kaede Sato's opinion.
Although he is the captain, the most powerful person on the ship is Kaede Sato. Especially after Kaede Sato revealed his Lightning Bird, Kaede Sato's prestige on the ship has skyrocketed. Now that this matter involves combat, he must listen to Kaede Sato's opinion no matter what.
"Since the Imperial Dragon Clan has formed an alliance with the Alliance, and now that there are men on the Alliance's ship, of course, we must help. Many of the passengers on the ship are ordinary people. If the Imperial Dragon Clan doesn't help, it will definitely damage the reputation of the Imperial Dragon Clan."
"Of course, this is just my personal opinion. After all, I'm not very familiar with the Black Shark Pirates. If I act rashly, I may put the cargo ship in danger. So, it's up to you to decide whether to fight or to avoid."
When Kaede Sato heard this, he hesitated for a moment. After thinking about it, he said his opinion.
What he said at this time is absolutely pertinent, and it is completely from the perspective of the Imperial Dragon Clan. In the end, he gave the right to Imperial Dragon Kaito to make the decision, which is enough to give Imperial Dragon Kaito face.
After more than a week of getting along, Kaede Sato almost grasped Imperial Dragon Kaito's personality. As a captain, Imperial Dragon Kaito is qualified. He has solid professional knowledge and management skills.
However, he had a common problem that all the children of big families had, and that was arrogance. In front of Kaede Sato, he would restrain himself and listen to the opinions of others. But if it was someone else, he wouldn't allow others to question his opinion.
Kaede Sato naturally wanted to help the people on the cruiser, but he knew Imperial Dragon Kaidu's personality. If Imperial Dragon Kaidu had a choice, he would not help them. Kaede Sato was a bit surprised. Kaede Sato naturally wanted to help the people on the cruiser.
For a person who often says the word 'untouchables', Kaede Sato really can't imagine that he will choose to save the ordinary people on the cruiser.
Therefore, Kaede Sato can only use the name of the Imperial Dragon Clan to make Imperial Dragon Kaito willing to help.
After all, Imperial Dragon Kaito's wealth and confidence are all given by the Imperial Dragon Clan. He must always protect the interests of the clan, otherwise, he will be a traitor.
Now that the people in the captain's room are basically the people of the Imperial Dragon Clan, if he doesn't save them at this time, then his actions will definitely be passed back to the Imperial Dragon Clan in the future, and even to the ears of the people in the alliance.
At that time, even if he doesn't die, he will lose a layer of skin.
Sure enough, when Kaede Sato said those words, Imperial Dragon Kaito's face suddenly changed. He unwillingly stared at Kaede Sato, then pretended to be righteous and gave the order to support.
On the other side, the cruiser's situation has reached the point of life and death. Although the ship is still faithfully carrying out the order to keep moving forward, the speed is obviously getting slower and slower, and the power system is damaged.
Moreover, the pirates have boarded the deck and began to wreak havoc on the ship. The resistance on the ship is getting weaker and weaker. A large number of ordinary people are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, they can only hide in the corner and tremble. The captain's room where the kingdom's princess is at this time is surrounded by many pirates.
"Little ones, let's go."
In the pouring rain, accompanied by a flash of lightning in the sky, Bogu, the pirate leader, raised the sailor axe in his hand and gave the order to the pirates around him with a ferocious face.
In the next second, many pirates released a variety of attacks and launched a fierce attack on the captain's room.
