An incomparably powerful warship dropped down from the sky and smashed viciously against the surface of the Anduin River. Two waves surged up like transparent walls of water, reaching a height of 30 to 40 metres. The draft of the warship had almost reached its limit, before it bounced back violently.
The misty image of a gigantic sea giant appeared above the warship. His hand gripped a gigantic anchor. The soul of this sea giant named Barbarbo turned his head to survey this foreign and vast world. He couldn't help but roar loudly.
A clear bunker had been erected at the bow of the ship. Within it, was the Greenland lethal weapon, a naval cannon that displayed its cutting edge. The Whale-Rib Harpoon that Taitish had tempered with black magic was placed neatly by the side. One could almost imagine the scene of the Whale-Rib Harpoon flying out from the high-speed revolutions, drawing an exceedingly bizarre trajectory before piercing deeply into the body of the prey.
The savage gunner, Nanuke, stood beside the 'Greenland Lethal Weapon' as he surveyed this foreign world in astonishment.
The bow of the warship was no longer the black grade Teji's ram. Instead, it had been replaced by the head of an incomparably savage sea beast. It shone with a dark golden radiance. The cannon array on the warship had been replaced with the incomparably powerful black iron cannons!
After the waves subsided slightly, familiar faces appeared one after another …. Doctor Cato, Spike, Carpenter, equipment needed to upgrade 'Muscle Explosion', Sharwin, Nanuke (gunner), Redbeard, Carter (oarsman), and the humanoid radar, Chile Rose.
"Woah, we seem to have arrived at an incredible place. Look at the sky! "
"This damned river is wider than the Gulf of Mexico!"
"Don't talk nonsense, I sense an awe-inspiring aura from this river."
"Oi oi oi, locate it immediately! What's the sailor doing? Lookout, get into position. Did the boss call us here to admire the scenery? "
"Oh right, have you seen the boss?"
"I don't see him."
"No."
"I've just arrived and I'm so excited. Where can I see him?"
"Oi oi oi, there should be a city nearby. The thing floating on the water ahead looks like a dead pig or a dead dog thrown away by the residents."
"Why.... why do I feel that the thing floating on the water isn't a dead pig or a dead dog? I've been watching from the sea for over ten years! "
"What does that look like?"
"It looks like … it's a person, about the same size as boss."
"Really?"
"Yes, a little."
"…"
"You bastards! Hurry up and get me out, I've been soaking here for a whole twenty minutes!! " A certain pirate captain, who was like a drowned rat, finally regained his composure and started cursing without a care for his image.
***
Without a doubt, Sheyan was infuriated. He had never expected his Dingyuan to make such a tyrannical entrance. Back then, to ensure that the teleportation portal was sufficiently spacious, he had resorted to leaping off the cliff. Yet he never expected the Dingyuan would impatiently rush out the moment the teleportation portal was opened; crashing down with the momentum of Mt. Tai. If not for Sheyan's proficiency in water, this captain of the Dingyuan would have been crushed to death!
Nevertheless, after Sheyan's humiliation turned into anger and bewilderment, he suddenly felt something wasn't right. That was because this bunch of bastards had arrived too timely. They had arrived with the speed of a sudden clap of thunder, where even a captain like himself was nearly drowned to death.
Therefore, when Sheyan interrogated them, he found out that half an hour ago, everyone on the ship had received an 'oracle', saying that they had been missing for a long time, but the fierce-looking boss had accepted a job and wanted them to help. If they worked hard, they would be rewarded handsomely after the job was done.
The voice sounded directly in the minds of all the crew members. When the most mysterious witch, Daisy, heard the voice, she showed great awe and prostrated herself on the ground. This woman was quite capable. No one but Sheyan could suppress her. When they saw her appearance, everyone was convinced without a doubt. Daisy's voice sounded in the minds of all the crew members on the ship.
Sheyan inquired about the handsomely rewarded. The pirates didn't conceal anything from him and directly brought out the item.
The reward was contained in a sparkling and translucent bottle. Inside was a pool of light blue water. Gazing at that thing, one would feel as though one's eyes were soaked in clean and limpid water. It was so comfortable that one couldn't take one's eyes off it. For some unknown reason, although the bottle was sealed, one could faintly smell the fragrance inside. It was an indescribably comfortable smell.
"After helping you complete this job, boss, the gods have promised us to remove the seal on the bottle," Redbeard honestly replied. "Furthermore, each of us will be given an additional bottle. We've already tested it, but the seal on the bottle can't be opened no matter what."
Sheyan curiously asked.
"What's inside that bottle?"
"The spring water of the Fountain of Youth." Taitish held her own bottle with a fanatical look in her eyes. "To be more specific, it can double a person's lifespan, and their appearance will always be fixed at the moment they drink the spring water."
Sheyan was taken aback. It seemed that the Realm had really invested a lot this time. They even offered such a great treasure as a reward. It seemed that in order to win, the Realm was even afraid that its subordinates would not work hard enough, so it had also placed a heavy bet on these pirates.
Immediately afterwards, Sheyan received another notification.
[Contestant No. 1018, your military rank has been certified. Your current military rank has been promoted from Brigadier General to Major General. Your authority has been greatly improved …!]
"It's finally here!" Sheyan had been waiting for this certification for too long. The Major General's Blood Armour was almost rusting in the Realm! To be honest, without this armour, Sheyan's chances of success would be at least 20% lower!
The Realm was favoured by the Realm, and they were on the Anduin River which Sheyan was most familiar with. Not to mention, the pirates who were about to go crazy after being stimulated by the Fountain of Youth had erupted with infinite power! A long-lost sneer finally appeared on Sheyan's face.
"Raise the sails!"

The water of the Anduin River flowed quietly. It seemed slow, but if one followed the current, it would not take long for the scenery on both sides to disappear into the distance. Everywhere was a quiet and beautiful place. As far as the eye could see, all the scenery was light green and the sky was the same colour as the water. There were also exquisite boats on the shore, gurgling water flowing into the river, and crystal clear water. Everything was as quiet and beautiful as a painting.
However, the beautiful scenery in a painting would never be painted with plumes of black smoke rising into the sky!
Before the advent of the steam age, most cities of a certain size were built by water. Why? Because the liveliness of a city could not be separated from logistics. When there were a lot of people, the cost of eating, drinking, and defecating would be astronomical. Compared to freight transportation, water transportation had a unique advantage.
So, along the vast Anduin River, there were quite a few famous cities scattered all over. Even Minas Tirith was only about ten kilometers away from the Anduin River. Before the war, the commercial area of Minas Tirith was very prosperous, stretching all the way to the Anduin River along the main road.
There was only one city on the Anduin River that was called the Pearl of the Anduin River, and that was Pelag. The bright, emerald green city always made people feel refreshed. Unique houses and buildings could be seen everywhere, and the rich city attracted abundant fruits and crops.
But at this time, Pelag was as miserable as a young girl who had just been raped. The Corsairs of Umbar's plundering here had come to an end. Many of them returned to their ships, laughing. The whole Anduin River was densely packed with pirate ships, large and small. The waterline of several large ships was so high that it exceeded the waterline. The screams of the citizens and the wild laughter of the pirates complemented each other, creating a unique picture.
Party Ace and the Corsairs of Umbar collided head-on with the Corsairs of Umbar!
Pirates VS Pirates!
Although the Anduin River was wide, it was not enough for the Corsairs of Umbar to ignore the strange existence of the Dingyuan. The ships they sailed were all huge triangular sailboats similar to the ones on the Nile River. Even the sails were triangular, which was very distinctive and very large. Although the Dingyuan was also a five-masted ship, it was like an adult compared to the seven or eight huge triangular sailboats of the Corsairs. The Dingyuan was completely insignificant, except for its unique shape.
Of course, that was only in the eyes of laymen. For the Corsairs of Umbar to be able to roam freely on the sea, it was impossible for them not to have some tricks up their sleeves. The fact that the strange ship in front of them dared to stop in front of the Corsairs of Umbar in the face of such a scene showed that it was trying to fight against the whole fleet by itself! What was more frightening was that if one took a closer look, they would find that the sails of the ship in front of them were faintly stained with blood. If one took a few more glances, they would find that the whole ship was suppressing the whole river. Even the waves did not dare to churn too much!
With the help of Taitish's black magic, an illusion of Sheyan, magnified dozens of times, appeared on the bow of the ship. His voice echoed across the river, causing many pirates to turn their heads in astonishment.
"I'm the messenger of the Dark Lord Sauron! I've brought his will with me. Where's your leader, Arathorn? "
Witnessing Sheyan's current prowess, the rest of the pirates didn't dare to be negligent. Not long after, the largest sailing ship gradually approached. Arathorn stood at the bow of the ship, as he dispatched a small boat to receive Sheyan.
However, Sheyan had the support of a legendary warship, so he would not give in so easily.
"Arathorn! How dare you belittle the majesty of King Sauron? Come on board and pay your respects to the messenger! " If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
