A certain scientific pirate

"what is that?"

The huge movement on the sea not far away quickly attracted the attention of the Archerfish. The lookout on the night shift held a telescope and used the weak moonlight to stare closely at the dark sea over there.

"Attention everyone, there are large creatures vigorously moving underwater at close range to the east and north of the ship. They may be sea kings. Please turn on the searchlight!"

The lookout's voice was transmitted to the command room through the copper pipe, and the Archerfish, which had been sleeping just now, immediately came to life... This was their emergency response capability.

Whether they are merchant ships, passenger ships, pirate ships or warships, as long as they are sailing on the Grand Route, they must have this kind of rapid response ability in the face of emergencies.

The searchlight was turned on, and then a circular spot of light shone in the direction indicated by the lookout hand, and it was quickly and accurately positioned... The waves over there were surging violently.

Judging from common sense, such a violent activity is either two Neptune species fighting or two Neptune species having sex.

After being illuminated, you can see that the dark sea water is mixed with a large amount of red. The sea water is dyed red, and then the redness is quickly diluted by the waves, and then dyed red and diluted again.

Well, it must have been a fight.

"Fighting? Are two sea kings fighting near the water?" someone shouted.

However, the crew discovered a strange thing next... At this critical moment, they could not find their captain.

Of course Mo Fei was not in her room.

"With such a close distance, the warship might be affected. Should we weigh the anchor? But the captain is not here...where is he?" Captain Robert Cao said anxiously, holding the side of the ship with both hands.

And just as he said these words, he felt a chill coming from behind him.

"Weigh anchor, raise sail, and cruise at a slow speed," Avril said.

I don't know when she also appeared on the deck.

Shouldn't he speed up his escape... Robert Cao only dared to keep this question in his mind and did not ask it out loud.

In a sense, he felt that April was more difficult to get along with than Mo Fei. But when Mo Fei suddenly disappeared, she was the highest officer of the ship, and obeying her orders was the basic principle of a soldier.

"Yes, Captain Avril... Do you want to prepare the artillery?"

Avril did not answer the question immediately. She walked to the side of the ship and stared there intently for a while before she said, "The artillery is reloaded and it is forbidden to fire."

"……yes."

Captain Robert Cao thought for a while and then understood that this order probably meant "load the artillery to ensure that it can fire at any time, but it is forbidden to fire before receiving the order to fire."

The Archerfish hoisted anchor and sail, and began to move slowly.

During this period, the underwater battle not far away seemed to become more intense. The huge body of the Neptune would rush out of the water from time to time, and then fall back in a painful and twisted posture.

Immediately afterwards, there was a dull loud noise over there, and a water column that looked like it was caused by an underwater explosion rose into the sky. When it fell back under the influence of gravity, the sea surface over there began to calm down... The battle seemed to be over.

Captain Robert Cao breathed a sigh of relief. The sight of Neptunes fighting near the sea was quite rare, and it was quite thrilling to watch. But anyway, the battle is over.

Avril still maintained a focused expression. After the area calmed down, she returned to her usual expressionless look.

"Lift the alert, unload the artillery shells, head northeast, and advance slowly."

"..."

Although the fight over there is over, even if one sea king is dead, there is another one, and even the remaining one should be enjoying a wonderful meal at this time.

Used to disturb the other party? Isn't that a little too arrogant?

Robert Cao Chang was just about to put forward his suggestion, but he didn't expect that he was immediately glanced at by Avril.

"Go slow."

She repeated the order just now.

"...Yes." Sergeant Robert could only carry out the order. Who could tell him how to get along with this commander? At this time, he actually missed Mr. Captain.

The warship sailed slowly towards that side.

Avril returned to her room first and soon returned to the deck.

"Attention, a Neptune-type... corpse was found on the sea? It is impossible to confirm whether it is alive or dead, but it is half floating on the sea, covered in blood."

Soon, a new report came from the lookout.

Then his tone changed quickly, "Wait a minute... There seems to be a person sitting on the body of the Neptune... Pay attention! Someone is there!"

"Captain!" Captain Robert Cao immediately turned around and faced April.

The battle between the Neptunes and the Neptunes is spectacular, but if humans had just fought against the Neptunes, the nature of the matter would be completely different... Humans are much more dangerous than the Neptunes, not to mention that they are still victorious. Neptune-like humans.

"It's okay, it's the people on the boat." Avril said.

"People on the boat? Could it be..."

After the Archer Fish slowly approached the body of the Neptune, he saw the vague figure standing on the Neptune's body jump up. As he casually kicked his feet in mid-air, he also crossed the space in the middle. It fell on the deck of the warship.

It is the moon step, a standard skill in the navy and even the world government. Everyone should know this.

So a wet man appeared in front of everyone.

"Captain? Major Erindale?" Captain Robert Cao recognized the other party's identity.

Avril walked over and handed a towel to the man who had just boarded the boat.

"Thanks."

Well, besides Mo Fei, who else could it be?

Mo Fei wiped his face and wet hair. Except for himself, probably no one knew whether the water stains on his body were caused by the battle, or whether he wet himself on his own initiative to avoid arousing suspicion.

"Captain, were you the one who fought this Sea King just now?" Robert couldn't hide the disbelief in his tone.

"Well, it's me. This thing kept circling the warship at night. In order to avoid possible dangers, I took action to solve it...but this thing is more difficult to deal with than I thought."

Mo Fei... what she said sounded like the truth.

As he spoke, he tilted his body, and you could see scratches, bleeding and bruises on one of his arms.

The medics had already arrived at Mo Fei's side, ready to help him treat his wounds.

"How?" Avril asked.

"I'm trying something new. Some of my moves are better at restraining large creatures." Mo Fei said vaguely. He hung the towel around his neck and handed his arm to the medic.

Robert looked at the Neptune-like corpses in the water below, and then at Mo Fei... The injuries on the captain were not incomprehensible. When dealing with that kind of creature, either there were basically no injuries, or there were no bones left.

"I'm fine, but we have to move next. No one knows whether the blood of the Neptune species will attract other things... Just don't need the supplies. The meat of this fish looks very old at first glance. Nothing but scales is muscle.”

After bandaging her arm, Mo Fei said to everyone.

Well, from what he said, did he originally plan to kill the Neptune type to cut his flesh? Are you really here to hunt?

But the first half of the sentence still makes sense. The warship is going to set sail at night.

"I'm going to change clothes."

Mo Fei left the deck and walked to her room.

After he left, everyone on the deck still seemed very quiet.

In the past, the crew on this ship only thought that the captain who was born in the naval academy was a little crazy. To put it nicely, he said that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. But at this moment, everyone has begun to respect him a little... He can compete with large-scale ships. People like Neptune can fight and win, so they can't help but respect them.

What's more, the captain just went into the water to fight the Sea Kings. It was to protect the warship and them...

Mr. Mo Fei started on the path of becoming a successful master.

In short, his battle with the Neptune type became a hot topic on the ship, and everyone was still discussing it until the next day.

Although it was not Mo Fei who provoked the Neptunes, but the Neptunes who made the first move, this matter has been Mo Fei's alone from beginning to end. Who asked him to conduct "deep diving training", but... this is language With just a few words, Mo Fei turned this matter into everyone's business.

It has become a characterization of "the danger is everyone's, but it was solved by me."

…………

the next day.

As the surveillance ship gets farther and farther away from the navy headquarters, the probability of seeing a pirate ship on the sea becomes higher and higher.

After the Archerfish saw two cargo ships, five mixed cargo ships, and a cruise ship in the distance, they finally spotted a pirate ship.

"Captain, a pirate ship was spotted on the starboard side!"

"Where's the pirate flag? Can you identify me?"

The lookout quickly flipped through an atlas, then stopped on a certain page. After comparing the pattern above with the pirate flag on the pirate ship in front, he said, "Confirm the identity of the enemy ship. It is Cha Xiuhai." The captain of the band of pirates is the pirate Chasu Zap, who has a bounty of 30 million beli, and is commonly known as the 'Great Destroyer'."

"30 million?"

Although it is not advisable to judge the opponent's strength solely based on the bounty, there are so many pirates on the sea that most of the time everyone can only use the bounty as a reference for strength.

"Order the artillery crew to be in position, we are ready to pursue."

Mo Fei decided to chase the 30 million beli pirate.

It's not like everyone is Luffy. It's only 30 million. Even the Bandit King of the East China Sea is worth 8 million.

"Yes, Captain!"

If Mo Fei had issued such an order before last night, many crew members would have complained that this ship was a surveillance ship, not a battleship, and the number of artillery pieces on the ship was not even comparable to that of a medium-sized pirate ship. But it's different now, because everyone has seen Mo Fei's personal combat effectiveness.

Mo Fei probably didn't expect that his battle with the Neptunes would actually bring unexpected gains - people will always follow and obey the strong. This is a kind of inertia.

Although Mo Fei is not actually a strong man, he is already a powerful person in everyone's eyes.

After chasing for a while, Mo Fei heard the sound of artillery coming from a distance, followed by a report from the lookout.

"That pirate ship was attacking a merchant ship... They found us and started to speed away."

If you see a merchant ship, you go to fight it. If you see a warship, you turn around and run away. Yes, this is very pirate.

"Pursuit."

Most pirate ships can run faster than large warships, but it is difficult to outrun high-speed sailing ships such as surveillance ships, but generally surveillance ships will not participate in naval battles... If you discover a pirate ship, and then report it, this It's the surveillance ship's job.

And the Archerfish is a surveillance ship that likes to shoot guns... Maybe it wasn't before, but it is now.

So it quickly closed the distance to the pirate ship. After a while, even Mo Fei, who could only look straight at the bow, saw the poop of the pirate ship.

The Archerfish's main gun was aimed at the pirate ship. The rear firepower of the sailboat is very weak, with at most a few tail guns, or no tail guns at all.

Mo Fei simply burrowed into the turret, and then ordered directly to the main gun crew, "Hit their rudder, can you do it?"

"It can be done, Captain, just keep an eye on it."

"Okay, if you hit it, I'll reward you with two kilograms of roasted sweet potatoes."

"Hey."

The gunner of the gun crew kicked the gunner in front, "Did you hear that? Hurry up and reload...the captain ordered to kick the butt of the pirate ship in front."

"Boss, isn't this a trivial matter? The butt of the boat in front is so high that it's as fast as a turtle crawling. The angle here is just right... the three gun tubes are thick and long, and the cannon tubes are enough!"

"You can poke me."

"Then poke hard."

No matter it is a pirate ship or a warship, no one can expect ordinary sailors to be so elegant. It is simply unrealistic... They are full of dirty jokes and never leave their lower bodies. This is a kind of maritime culture.

In fact, because Mo Fei was here, the conversation between the artillery crew members was quite restrained.

However, the fact that they spoke like this in front of Mo Fei also showed that the gun crew members recognized him as the captain.

Mo Fei glanced behind her. Fortunately, Avril was not here, otherwise he would definitely have to shut up these guys... She stayed in the command room, and members such as navigators and communications officers could be considered "high-ranking" "Educated people" will definitely not speak like ordinary seafarers.

Strictly speaking, the gunner must be relatively skilled. He must know distance and ballistic calculations, but... this guy has already become one with the people here.

After four rounds of shooting and twelve shells, another shell finally hit the rudder of the pirate ship... Although the shooting angle was good, it had to be considered accurate.

In this way, the pirate ship in front can no longer turn... Without the rudder, it is no longer a ship, but a piece of wood floating on the sea.

"You guys drive the boat to the side of the pirate ship, and I'll go over and check the situation first."

After giving new orders to the command room, Mo Fei kicked off his legs, took off from the warship, and headed straight for the pirate ship.

Although Mo Fei learned a lot from Lieutenant General Garp, no matter how close the learning in school is to actual combat, it is still different from actual combat.

Mo Fei needs to "apply what he has learned" from the "naval hero".

So under the surprised and panicked gazes of the pirates, Mo Fei landed on the pirate ship.

"what do you……"

"It's just you."

Mo Fei's eyes immediately focused on the person who spoke, then he casually pulled out the dagger behind him and threw it towards the other person!

The dagger was very fast, but the pirate was no ordinary person. He turned sideways and dodged the attack that was comparable to a bullet.

However……

Mo Fei moved her palm back, and the dagger that had passed over the opponent's side instantly turned 180 degrees and pierced the opponent's shoulder directly from behind.

Um...well...

Is this a piece of shit about “applying what you have learned”? Did Lieutenant General Garp teach Mo Fei "the art of sword control"?

"The bounty is 30 million Baileys, Zaxiu Zaku, you are under arrest."

Mo Fei stood on the side of the ship, looking down at the numerous pirates and said.

However……

First, he misremembered the pirate's name.

second……

"Vice Captain, Vice Captain, what's wrong with you?"

Second, he recognized the wrong person.

"..."

Awkward.

It seemed a little awkward.
