The cool sea breeze blew from the deck. Avina and I stood together on the deck, letting the sea breeze caress our cheeks. Suddenly, I felt a strong murderous intent from afar.
"Not good, it's the Singhadi Pirates!" At this moment, the ship's alarm was rung by the observer on the watchtower.
Following the clanging of the bell, the guards on the ship rushed to the deck, ready to enter the battle.
As I stood on the deck and looked into the distance, I saw two large sailing ships suddenly break through the mist and appear before us.
That's right, it was the Singhadi Pirates' ship. That's because the black skull flag fluttered at the top of the mast.
"Boom, boom, boom." On the two large sailing ships, the pirates pushed out several ballistas and began to unscrupulously fire at our ship.
Since the ship I was on wasn't a warship, but an ordinary merchant ship, there weren't any heavy weapons on the ship. If the Northern Alliance Army hadn't heard of the Singhadi Pirates' infamy, perhaps the number of guards on the ship would have been reduced by half.
At this moment, I was like the majority of the people, desperately holding on to the sturdy objects around me, afraid that I would be thrown off by the swaying ship. The scene on the ship was already chaotic. The Northern Alliance Army soldiers were all dizzy from being thrown off.
Soon, the pirates stopped firing and released iron cannons at the ship. I saw a huge iron chain with barbs at the tip shoot towards the ship I was on. The pirate ship began to close in on the ship I was on. Moreover, the sides of the two ships had already merged.
The pirates whistled as they jumped from their ship onto the ship I was on, or climbed over from the ropes. A bloody battle was about to unfold.
However, the other pirate ship didn't have any intention of joining the battle. It was only watching the battle from a distance.
"Northern Alliance Army soldiers, kill these filthy pirates!" The commander on the ship said to the Northern Alliance Army soldiers on the ship.
"Kill them all!" However, on the other side, a handsome man stood on the pirate ship and said to the pirates behind him.
Immediately, the pirates charged towards the fully armed Northern Alliance Army soldiers as if they had gone mad.
"Non-combatants, return to the cabin." The commander of the Northern Alliance Army ordered the civilians on the deck.
Other than those who were already on the ground, the rest of the people rushed towards the cabin entrance. I also wanted to run back to the cabin, but the situation was too chaotic. No, the ambush just now caused me to lose Avina. I have to find Avina.
The battle on the deck had already begun to heat up, and the pirates currently had the upper hand.
An endless stream of pirates jumped from their ships to join the battle, and the Northern Alliance Army's guards began to be overwhelmed.
At the same time, a few pirates had their chests pierced by the pikes of the Northern Alliance Army. There were also pirates who stood not far away and shot arrows at the Northern Alliance Army guards, but they were blocked by the guards who were usually well-trained with shields.
The handsome man who seemed to be the leader of the pirates was currently standing on the pirate ship, smiling as he watched the bloody battle in front of him. From time to time, a few pirates would rush into the middle of the guards and fight.
With the advantage in numbers, the pirates quickly forced the guards to a corner of the deck. They seemed to be waiting for the handsome pirate's orders.
"Leave no one alive!"
The handsome man sentenced the Northern Alliance Army's soldiers to death, and the pirates immediately rushed towards the retreating Northern Alliance Army's guards. In a moment, the guards' heads fell to the ground, and flesh and blood splattered everywhere.
I witnessed this bloody scene from a corner. My body was out of control due to fear, but my heart told me that I had to protect Avina.
In the end, only the Northern Alliance Army's commander and two guards were left standing on the deck. The rest of the guards were killed by the pirates.
The commander wanted to apologize with his life, but after thinking about it, he gave up. He threw his weapon on the ground and prepared to surrender to the pirates.
At this time, the handsome man walked over, and the pirates made a path for him.
The handsome man walked in front of the commander, and with a strange smile, he pulled out the sharp scimitar at his waist. Two tall and strong pirates saw this, and immediately pressed the commander down to kneel in front of the handsome man.
"Remember, I am the Singadi Pirate Leader that you are looking for, Lofis."
"Puff!" The handsome man called Lofis beheaded the commander, and the blood splashed on the faces of the remaining two guards. The two guards felt an unprecedented fear. They began to be afraid. They finally understood why the Singadi Pirates were the masters of this sea area, but it was too late.
The pirates rushed forward and chopped the remaining two Northern Alliance Army's guards into meat paste.
I almost vomited, but I held it back. At this moment, the fear in my heart had reached its peak.
Under the command of the handsome man, the pirates rushed into the cabin and caught all the ordinary people on the deck.
I was no exception. I was chased into the crowd by the pirates, and I desperately tried to find Avina's trace.
At this time, a captured aristocrat saw the corpses all over the deck, and his legs turned to jelly. Perhaps the pirates smelled the urine coming from the aristocrat's body, and kicked him to the ground. The aristocrat also fell on the deck like a dead dog. It was really a phoenix that had fallen to the ground.
"Take all these captives to the ship, and this ship will be yours. You are now official Singadi Pirates!" The pirate leader called Lofis said.
The pirates heard this and cheered. They tied our hands and escorted us to the pirate ship that they came from.
Lofis appointed a strong pirate as the captain of the newly seized pirate ship, and returned to their previous pirate ship.
These guys who had just officially become Singadi Pirates immediately began to clean up the corpses on the ship under the leadership of the new captain. They threw these corpses into the sea, and let the corpses become fish food.
I and the others were taken to the cabin of another pirate ship. There was a huge prison there, and we were locked in. There were some people that the pirates had captured before in the prison, and they were all women. At this time, I saw Avina and other female captives being chased over.
I shouted excitedly, and was knocked down to the ground by a heavy punch from the pirate.
On the sea, the original two pirate ships and the merchant ship that we had just taken, a total of three ships, began to sail towards the east. The black skull flag fluttered on the mast.
In the cabin, I only felt that the surroundings were dark. All kinds of unpleasant smells assailed my nostrils, and I felt very uncomfortable.
I looked at the women who had been in the prison before. Most of them were young and beautiful, and their clothes were shabby. But I paid more attention to Avina, afraid that something would happen to her.
Soon, I adapted to the environment here. I saw the aristocrat curled up into a ball and hid in a corner. Clearly, his spirit was stimulated.
After sailing for about a day, a pirate brought a bucket of food that couldn't be called food. Everyone fought for it, and the pirate laughed at the side.
Suddenly, in my sleep, I felt the hull of the ship shake violently.
But after a while, the shaking disappeared, and the hull returned to normal.
In the morning, several pirates arrived at the prison. They held black leather whips in their hands, as if they were the messengers of death.
"You, you … and you, come with me." The pirate pointed to more than ten male captives to follow him, and this included me.
When I followed the pirate to the deck, the dazzling sunlight made my eyes hurt. It seemed that bad luck was really around us.
