Codex Pirates

Chapter 35 Heavy Rain (Part 2)

Barbarossa is the captain of the Redbeard Pirates, and the bounty is as high as 19 million Baileys. This is already considered a great pirate in the East China Sea. In this sea area, only the chef who becomes the captain of the pirate There are only a few well-known pirates such as "Redfoot" Zhepu who can compete with him.

Hayreddin is the navigator of the Redbeard Pirates, and another pirate named Reis, both are Barbarossa's first confidantes and cousins ​​who went to sea together.

Eaton handed the information to Arcadio, who checked it casually, and handed it to Barbarossa.

"This is the timetable for the opponent's ships to enter and leave the various docks, as well as the daily shipping lanes," Arcadio said calmly, "I want you to snatch their goods and kill all their people."

Barbarossa didn't respond, Arcadio smiled indifferently: "Your bounty has increased recently, but I found someone to suppress it and put the case on other pirates, one thousand and nine Although there are a lot of millions of Berries, they still start with 10 million Berries, which cannot be compared with 20 million Berries."

"But after this matter is done, won't the bounty be increased anyway? What's the use!" Barbarossa said disapprovingly.

"As long as you keep the matter within the sea area controlled by the Kingdom of Navia, this matter will not be publicized, and your bounty will not increase because of it." One person pushed open the door and said sullenly.

Several people in the room turned their heads to look, and found that the person who made the noise was a short naval officer, but although he was not tall, he was very stylish. In addition to wearing a white windbreaker owned by a naval officer and carrying a golden In addition to the tassels, there is still a thick cigar in his mouth.

If William, Ajin and the others were here, they would probably feel familiar, because this little man is exactly the naval commander of the Denton Pirates who chased him back then.

Barbarossa and Hayreddin frowned at the same time, but Arcadio greeted them eagerly: "Lieutenant Colonel Roy..."

Behind the little officer was a young man in a navy uniform who looked a bit mischievous, and interrupted at this moment: "It's Colonel Roy!"

"Mouse!" Colonel Roy raised his hand to stop the second lieutenant named Mouse, "The earl is my old friend, don't be rude!"

Arcadio was upset at the mouse's rudeness, but he didn't show it. He clapped his hands happily: "This is the happiest news I heard today."

The 16th Division of the Navy under the jurisdiction of Colonel Roy has a sphere of influence that includes the waters around the Kingdom of Navia, and Arcadio has long been acquainted.

Colonel Roy exchanged a few words with Arcadio, and then sat on the sofa, sitting opposite Arcadio, Frederick Barbarossa and Hayreddin.

By this time, the real powerful nobles of the kingdom, the supreme commander of the navy branch, and the great pirate who are famous all over the East China Sea have gathered in this room.

Powerful, powerful, and powerful.

On the big stage of the whole world, it can be said that it is not worth mentioning, but for the East China Sea and the surrounding area of ​​​​the Kingdom of Navia, the collusion of these three kinds of people is enough to form a picture that ordinary people feel The breathless giant net.

Wild animals in nature never hold back when they are ready to hunt for food, whether they are facing foxes, rabbits, or wolves.

...

"When will the rain stop?"

In the storm, Wallon roared loudly.

The torrential rain lasted for three full days without any sign of stopping.

The cargo ship guarded by Wallon, Edmund and others, in the face of the mighty power of nature, is like a toy ship, which can only sway and move forward with difficulty.

Edmund was helping to control the sail. The heavy rain and strong wind forced him to scream hard, so that people could hear what he was saying: "You don't care when it stops, are you still going to die obediently?"

Wallon stopped talking. He wiped the rainwater off his face and sneaked a look around, only to see a sailor holding a binoculars at the stern dancing and yelling, but everyone is busy now. Steering the boat, the sound was not transmitted far in the rainstorm, and no one noticed him for a while.

"Edmond!" cried Wallon.

Edmund grabbed a sailor who almost fell into the sea because of slippery feet, and said a little annoyed, "What's the matter?"

"There seems to be something going on over there!" Wallon pointed to the sailor at the stern.

At this time, some surrounding crew members also noticed this person's movements.

Edmond and Wallon hurried over, and when they came to the dancing sailor, they heard what he was calling: "There is a ship! It seems to be a pirate ship! I saw the black flag."

Edmund took out a telescope from his pocket and looked in the direction the sailor was pointing.

Sure enough, under the rain, a three-masted clipper ship was sailing towards them maliciously. Although the heavy rain hindered observation, the occasional lightning in the sky allowed Edmund to see the ropes tied to the other party's mast. black banner.

"Another group of bastards who are not afraid of death!" Edmund sneered.

But the sailor who had just reported the news also raised his binoculars and exclaimed, "The Redbeard Pirates! It's the Redbeard Pirates!"

Coincidentally, the vice-captain who heard the news also heard this. Like Edmond and Wallon, his color changed after hearing the name.

Barbarossa, who has been sheltered by others and has never been encircled by the navy, has been in the East China Sea with his Redbeard Pirates for many years, so he is notorious among the local people. Various legends and rumors about him are endless. Some people say that he is invulnerable to swords and guns. , some say that he sold his soul by signing a pact with the sea devil so that he could use magic against his enemies, which is why he is so powerful and so cruel to his enemies.

It is said that any enemy captured by Red Beard will be sacrificed to the devil by him.

"Throw away all the cargo on the ship, we can still run away!" The deputy captain estimated the distance between the two sides. They were driving a cargo ship, and their speed was slower than the other party. But thanks to the storm, if they threw away the baggage and increased their speed, It may not be possible to take advantage of the momentum of the torrential rain to temporarily get rid of the three-masted clipper of the Redbeard Pirates. The visibility in this kind of weather is extremely low, and it is not so easy to catch up after being dragged.

"No!" Edmund rejected the other party's proposal without much thought, "In this weather, we might capsize if we lose the ballast cargo!"

Actually capsizing the ship is definitely not as easy as Edmund said. He is more self-respecting. In the past, when the other companions were looking after the ship, they never made a sound about such a thing of polishing the cargo and fleeing. If he did this, he would feel ashamed. face.

"What's 'Redbeard', and signed a contract with the devil," Edmond encouraged his morale vigorously, "Valon, I guess he told me what you told me, the same pirate named Denton back then , making up stories to bluff people."

"If it was really a great pirate, he would have gone to the great route long ago. Those who stayed and stayed for so long must be rotten fish and rotten shrimp. I don't know how many pirates like us have chopped down this year. Those rubbish who only dare to show their teeth and claws at ordinary people." Edmond grinned at Wallon who was still a little worried, "I still remember you told me that when you robbed Denton's treasure map, this time I will learn from you Grab a bigger pirate!"
