Codex Pirates

Chapter 337 The Invisible Enemy

In the dining room of the Starlight, the sailors who had heard Brook’s story recalled the dilapidated appearance of the pirate ship that looked like a ghost ship. It was hard to imagine how Brook managed to survive by himself in this environment for decades. Afterwards, because of pity, the sailors were not so disgusted with Brook's pirate status, only Kaslana's complexion was not very good-looking, but for Portia's sake, she didn't get angry.

"If you want, you can leave this sea area on our ship," Joey Ferro said in a deep voice, then glanced at William and the others leaning against the window of the restaurant, "Anyway, there are already three outsiders on board, and it's okay It’s not bad for you, but you’d better curb your pirate habits, I think you’re pretty good, if there’s a battle on the road, you should also join in.”

Brook's hand holding the teacup stopped in mid-air. After two seconds, he sighed, put down the teacup and stood up. He looked around the sailors sitting in the dining room and listening to his story, and said sincerely: "I Want to thank you all, this is the most sumptuous and lively meal I have had in more than 40 years, but I still have to decline your offer, I can't just leave, I still want to fix me and my companions Warship, if possible, can I borrow some tools and materials?"

Joey Ferro frowned and said: "I didn't hit you, but your ship is dilapidated, and there are not a few professional shipwrights to help, so it can't be repaired at all. You said before that the rudder was broken, but you I didn't see how the sails on the ship were broken, even if you repaired the rudder, the ship would not be able to sail out of the Magic Triangle, not to mention it was hit by a few shells just now."

In the end, Joey Ferro was a little embarrassed, which is why he invited Brook to leave on a boat. Brook's experience was already miserable, and the people on the Starlight bombarded his ship because of misunderstanding and fear. Joey Ferro Ferro and the others are neither pirates who burn, kill, loot, and have no psychological burden for crime, nor are they a navy whose duty is to fight crime. They feel somewhat guilty facing Brook.

"But I don't want to throw my companion's bones in this gloomy and dark place." It was difficult to see the expression on Brook's skeleton face, but his tone sounded firm.

"We only have one shipbuilder on board, so it's impossible to stay on your ship to help you repair it, and your ship needs too many materials to repair, and we don't have so many related materials on board." Joey Ferro truthfully Tell each other.

Portia wanted to open her mouth to say something, but Kaslana grabbed her wrist. She looked back at Kaslana, but saw that the latter gave her a wink and refused to let her speak.

In fact, it is entirely possible for Brook to transfer his companion's bones to the Starlight. Anyway, after these decades, Brook's companion has turned into a skeleton just like him, so there is no need to worry about plague and other diseases.

But this can only be said by Portia, the owner of the ship, because from Brook's previous description, we can know that he has a lot of companions, and the space and carrying capacity of the ship are limited. To move the bones of Brook's companions to a merchant ship, a merchant ship is first needed Discard some goods, except for Portia, others, including Joey Ferro, are not easy to say this.

In addition, although the crew members sympathized with Brook's experience, they may not be able to accept it if they are really allowed to sail with a group of corpses.

As a navy, Kaslana has more worries than other people. Brook is a pirate after all. Kaslana and Portia are good friends. She doesn't want any twists and turns in Portia's voyage, which has invested most of her wealth. .

Kaslana is already dissatisfied with the afro Joey Ferro who just invited another afro to board a merchant ship on his own initiative. It would be great if Brook could take the initiative to refuse to board the ship.

"It's okay, I can repair it slowly by myself, first fix the rudder, and then repair other parts. I have been waiting for so many years, and I don't mind spending a little more time." Brook didn't notice Kaslana and Portia. Small movements, said very optimistically.

As soon as Brook's words fell, the ship shook violently. Many sailors in the restaurant were caught off guard, and they were thrown to pieces. It took a while for the ship to return to normal.

Although William, Akin, and Selkirk also imitated the appearance of other sailors, they bumped and bumped a few times as if they couldn't maintain their balance during the shaking just now, but their expressions all coincided with a hint of sternness.

Under the careful protection of the guard Clark and Kaslana, the owner of the ship, Portia, was not injured except for her pale complexion.

The captain, Joey Ferro, looked a bit embarrassed. The teacup that Brook had put down just fell on him, and the tea wet his pants. He froze when he opened the door.

An island appeared in front of the ship at some point. There was a damaged city wall on the periphery of the island. Through the collapsed part of the city wall, a forest could be seen behind the city wall. Behind this, there was a mansion on the hillside. Looming in the mist.

What shocked Joey Ferro the most was not the island that seemed to appear out of nowhere, but the left-behind personnel he had arranged on the deck and in the watchtower. From the beginning to the end, he did not pass any news to him in the restaurant.

"What are you doing? Such a big island suddenly appeared, and you didn't even make a sound!" Joey Feilo raised his head and reprimanded Wangdou loudly.

It's just that after Joey Ferro finished speaking, he didn't hear any response from the people in the watch. Not only that, the ship shook so badly just now, and no one he stayed on the deck came to him to report the situation. Something is also wrong.

Joey Ferro's heart tightened. At this time, other people also came out of the dining room. Joey Ferro asked one of them to climb up to see what was going on inside, but Brook volunteered and jumped onto the watchtower with ease. , found the observer inside who was beaten unconscious.

After Joey Ferro heard Brook's report, he immediately raised his vigilance, quickly arranged manpower, asked several teams to search the enemy everywhere on the ship, and reminded them to be more vigilant, and then personally led people to the front deck.

William and the others followed Joey Ferro to the foredeck, where they found several sailors who had been knocked unconscious.

The atmosphere in the arena was dignified. Except for William and his group who had some guesses, no one else knew where the person who sneaked into the ship had come from. Following the teams who searched everywhere on the ship, they reported the news. , Joey Ferro's complexion also became more and more ugly.

The rudder of the ship was artificially damaged, and the ship doctor who was resting alone in the medical room was also attacked and was injured more severely than the sailors found on the deck and in the watchtower. , has fallen in a pool of blood, breathing weakly.

But these groups of people did not find any trace of anyone, as if it was an invisible ghost that sneaked into the ship to wreak havoc.
