After waking up

"Whoosh."

The train to Valentine passed through heavy rain and slowly approached the Valentine train station.

"Rumble"

Lightning illuminated the earth in the night, and the ground watered by heavy rain was like a vast ocean.

Leo, who was feeling sleepy, was cheered up by the thunder. He looked at the rain outside, and then looked at the pirate who seemed to be sleeping.

"Kilga, we've arrived at Valentine, get off the bus with me."

The pirate opened his eyes and was lifted up from the bunk by Leo, and then walked towards the car door.

The other passengers had already gotten off the bus, and only two police officers from Valentine were waiting outside. Leo couldn't help but smile and murmur when he saw the prepared carriage and his colleagues holding umbrellas.

"The telegraph is such a good thing!"

Kilga glanced at the carriage over there, looked up at the heavy rain in the sky, walked directly into the rain without waiting for Leo to open his umbrella, closed his eyes and let the heavy rain hit his body and face.

"Come and get me."

Leo was unhappy when he saw the pirate's pretense, so he pushed him hard, causing him to stagger out and he grabbed his vest and carried him.

"There is water in the police prison, so there is no need to drink rainwater."

Leo said hello to his colleagues and took the pirates into the carriage together.

At midnight, Leo stood at the window at the end of the corridor at home with hot tea. The heavy rain outside was weakening and soon stopped.

This made Leo, who was inexplicably nervous, relax. This was obviously an ordinary thunderstorm, and then he smiled to himself.

"That pirate really made me a little nervous."

Interrogate, record, torture, interrogate, record.

Although the pirates were not arrogant and told many things that the Valentine police wanted to know, people in the Valentine area did not have a good impression of pirates, so the pirates' physical pain was not spared.

But ever since he came to Valentine, the pirate seemed to have been inexplicably excited, and many of the physical injuries he suffered were caused by provoking the police officer.

Leo and the police officers could only attribute this state of the pirates to the commonality of madmen.

One afternoon in mid-August, Kilga was sleeping on a bed in a single room in the prison of Valentine Police Station.

"Rumble"

The thunder woke Kilja up. He stood up and walked to the iron fence, looking at the window at the end of the corridor. There was lightning and thunder outside. Although it was not raining, the wind was extremely strong.

At Valentine's Port Pier, fishing boats, small yachts, and other ships of various sizes are returning to the port. Based on their own experience, the captains and old sailors know that a storm will soon come.

In the distant sea outside the port, more than a dozen huge sea-going ships were sailing towards Port Valentine.

Some of these ships are covered with iron armor and have cannons that are similar to rotating naval guns but with a simpler structure. However, they do not have the bridge of a warship. Instead, they have some high platforms, including steam engine chimneys and masts that can hang sails. They are everywhere. Revealing roughness.

Some ships are completely wooden ships, and the hull is full of old-fashioned gun ports, full of a kind of classic wildness.

The skull and crossbones flag flutters on the masts of these large ships, indicating the identity of these ships. They are all pirate ships.

The storm swept the surrounding seas, and the waves rolled up and down in all directions of the ship, making these pirate ships very bumpy.

On an armored ship in the middle, a man wearing a big three-cornered hat looked into the distance with a telescope in the heavy rain. Port Valentine could only see a faint outline, but a towering white lighthouse was already extremely conspicuous. The lights shine in all directions to guide ships in the sea.

"Solotta, we can't let them get in the way."

The captain on the high platform put down his telescope and shouted at the hands below.

"Turn the turret and destroy the white lighthouse for me——"

The pirate first mate immediately repeated the roar.

"Retract the sails - turn the turret, target the white lighthouse -"

The pirates all immediately became excited.

"Retract the sails——" "Turn the turret——"

Using lights as a code word, more than a dozen pirate ships began to move towards the lighthouse, sailing along both sides and starting to slow down, forming a figure-eight angle between them and the lighthouse.

Regardless of whether it is an iron-clad pirate ship or a wooden pirate ship, their cannonballs are round and rolled into the cannon bore one by one.

"Hehehe, pouring the refined black whale oil on it can break through the protection of those wizards!"

"Hahahaha, give me more——"

Whether the pirates were strong or skinny, they all seemed to know what the white tower meant. Instead of being afraid, they showed strong excitement.

The violent storm was the best cover. When the thunder illuminated the pirate ship again, they were already near the tower, and a Solotta wizard on the white tower was studying "Truth and Magic" with great devotion.

"Bang" "bang" "bang" "bang".

All the pirate ships fired at about the same time, and hundreds of cannons of different ages burst into flames.

"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~".

The entire white tower lit up and down, and the spotlights on the top swayed. The wizards inside were blown out by the explosion. They lay down at the window and discovered the ships outside.

"Pirate Ship?"

"Bang" "bang" "bang" "bang".

The movement of the cannonballs seemed to slow down. In the wizard's eyes, these cannonballs were still burning with black flames after leaving the chamber.

"Boom", "Boom", "Boom"

Some lightnings in the sky were forcibly reversed and hit many pirate ships. Electric currents flowed wildly on the ships, and some pirates were killed before they could react.

But the rain of shells has also fallen on the tower.

"Boom~" "Boom~" "Boom~".

The lighthouse was crumbling. Under the island where it was located, many ferocious monsters jumped out of the sea and rushed towards the lighthouse at this moment. They were short monsters with a tail and webbed hands and feet, half a man's height. The teeth and claws are relatively sharp.

"These lunatics!"

The wizard hurriedly took away the crystal from the top of the tower, then opened a wardrobe door and entered the other world.

Without the support of the wizard, the white tower was crumbling in an instant.

A few minutes later, the lighthouse collapsed and was overwhelmed by monsters.

Many pockets, boxes, and bookshelves floating on the sea were all salvaged by pirates.

"Chief Nido has ordered that all books be handed over, but no treasure will be used."

"Oh!" "Long live the leader——"

The pirates cheered and scrambled for various valuables obtained from the wizard's tower.

The remaining pirate ships then continued forward, sailing to Port Valentine in the storm, but they obviously did not enter the port to escape the storm.

The pirate ship gradually approached the port. The entire Valentine Port was filled with large and small ships that were rising and falling in the storm. The entire port seemed to be completely undefended. Even the faint sound of the lighthouse being attacked was like a distant sound in the storm. thunder.

The pirate ship approaches the harbor, squeezing nearby smaller boats out of the way.

The captain of the iron-clad pirate ship blew a strange bone flute, making a shrill sound. In the waves of the port, countless sea monsters half as tall as a man climbed up from the water to the port.

Then the pirate leader pulled out the scimitar in his hand and pointed at Port Valentine.

"Find him, bring him back, and kill anyone who stands in his way—"

With excited shouts, they got off the ship and rushed to Valentine Port, while the pirate leader and several pirate captains also got off the ship and walked towards Valentine in the storm.

Bolts of lightning struck down on the top of the Valentine Police Department building, and the pirates also rushed there.

"Rumble"

At the Valentine Police Station, the police officers here were startled by the lightning that suddenly hit the roof. Many people squatted down subconsciously. They looked above their heads. Lightning fell from time to time on the tops of the police station and surrounding buildings.

"What's going on?" "Could it be that the Holy Light knows that there are many villains imprisoned here and wants to punish them?"

"Don't be ridiculous, we are still here." "Then how long has it been since you went to pray?"

Seeing that the lightning rod was working well, the police officers relaxed a little, but the streets outside were already full of sea monsters crawling on all fours.

"Bang~"

The door of the police station was knocked from the outside. Everyone in the hall looked at the door. Who would come to the police station during the storm?

"Bang~" "Bang~"

The door was knocked twice more, and the two police officers walked over suspiciously. After hesitating, they opened the door a little. The wind and rain swept through the cracks in the door, and many sea monsters rushed over.

"ah--"

"Bang" "bang" "bang".

Two police officers were knocked down, one of them fired randomly, and more sea monsters rushed in carrying rainwater.

"Oh hell!" "What?"

"Shoot, shoot—"

"Bang" "bang" "bang" "bang".

In the cell, the imprisoned pirate heard the thunder outside and the gunshots from the periphery of the police station. He sat there with a smile on his face, as if waiting for his fate.

Half a minute later, Leo and two injured police officers rushed here. After opening the cell door, Leo grabbed the pirate's collar and punched him hard in the face.

"You bastard, why didn't you make it clear before? Why-"

"Oh, officer, I gave you some advice."

Kilga's teeth were stained with blood, and he smiled and looked at Leo, who stared at him hatefully.

"what should we do?"

This made Kilja, who was originally waiting for other pirates to catch him, suddenly have some thoughts in his mind.

"If you wait for the pirates to come over, even if they catch me, they won't leave immediately, and Valentine will suffer. But if you take me away, they will choose to chase me first."

"We can't go to land, otherwise Valentine will become the target of venting his anger, and we can't escape. But there is hope if we go to the sea. Of course, we have to avoid the pirate ships in the port."

Leo stared at Kilga, whose bloody smile revealed his madness and indifferent attitude.

"All the choices are yours, believe it or not! But I don't think we can escape to the port, hahaha."

After all, there are some powerful extraordinary beings among the pirates, but if Kilja has not spoken out, there may be a miracle.

The gunfire outside the police station became increasingly sparse, and even the screams of women and children could be heard near the police station.

"Walk!"

Leo gritted his teeth and said something, and he and two colleagues took Kilja out of the cell, then rushed to a room on the second floor and opened the window. Below was a wide water channel, which looked extremely turbid in the heavy rain.

"Jump down!"

The three police officers and the prisoners jumped in one after another, and then hurriedly came up from the ditch, dragging Kilga and rushing around the path. What was strange was that lightning seemed to be chasing them, and lightning struck down every once in a while. Around them, but always unable to hit them.
