Demon Royal Family

Ivo attacked four passing naval fleets, including Kuishang, Saint Malo, and the Southern Continent Federation. There were a total of sixteen warships, and a large amount of supplies and prisoners were seized. There were 500 ballistae alone, and they were quietly escorted to The construction of the Black Bat Island stronghold was booming, and a total of 600 people were captured.

The manpower at the stronghold was not without things to do. They quietly recruited young people in some legal ports, or robbed prisons and took away prisoners. Five hundred new people were added to the island, and they trained with Rhodes, Stonehoof, and Sting. There was nothing for them in a short time. effect, but fresh blood is essential to the formation of the force.

The navy was attacked many times, and those countries finally responded. Ivo found that the number of encounters with warships was becoming more and more frequent, and the navy was no longer passing by, but was searching for itself in the sea of ​​sharks. The navy could often be seen in legal ports. By asking the dock workers, he was obviously trying to get information about himself.

However, Ivo did a very clean job when he attacked the navy. No one knew their strength. The St. Malo Empire's reward of 45 million was only based on their evil deeds, which was considered a medium level in the Shark Sea. Due to lack of information, there is no description of the privateers' situation at all on the reward list.

"It finally caused a backlash." Ivo was very calm, knowing that sooner or later there would be a reward, and he could not hide it forever. The gains from plundering the powerful forces far exceeded those from plundering the caravans. In fact, he was very satisfied with the amount of the reward, which proved that those countries Not knowing his true identity at all.

Using a new identity to become famous in the Shark Sea is quite a novel feeling. It has many conveniences for Ivo. At least the attention he receives is limited. The longer his identity is concealed, the better.

The Shark Sea, which had always been calm, began to become turbulent.

However, the impact of Ivo's attack on the naval power only occupied a smaller part. It was another guy who really stirred up the situation.

Ivo picked up another reward list with a strange expression on his face.

"The Constantine Pirates Group has a bounty of 77 million. Its main deeds are to massacre the residents of four legal ports, plunder 17 caravans, and cause huge damage to the stability of the Shark Sea. The bounty party... the Shark Sea is legal Hong Kong Alliance.”

Ivo looked at the tall and thin man with fierce eyes on the reward list, raised his eyebrows and said: "This guy is the biological brother of the King of Saint-Malo. He actually stayed in the Shark Sea and became a pirate. These deeds are indeed cruel."

The reward amount in the Shark Sea is not as high as that in the inland sea, but the pirate strength is not weak.

Shark Sea has a bounty of less than 50 million, which is the popular level. A bounty of more than 50 million is considered a sufficient threat. After 50 million, the reward amount increases very slowly. Constantine reached 7,000 in just two months. Seven million, growing very rapidly.

During this period of plundering, Ivo learned more about the Shark Sea and discovered the fact that if he wanted to rule the Shark Sea, he would never be able to bypass the pirates.

Pirates form their own camp, and each individual pirate is an eyeliner, forming a huge intelligence network covering the entire Shark Sea. The flow of pirate intelligence is indeed limited, but that is only for the hostile legal ports of the Shark Sea. In fact, pirates are a large The most informed camp at sea.

The top five pirates in Shark Sea are huge and not inferior to Ivo.

Ivo encountered several pirate attacks. He got a lot of information from many pirates and heard about Constantine's challenge to Tyrol. Constantine was very high-profile and powerful, and he seemed to be very concerned about it. His whereabouts had to make Ivo a little wary.

It stands to reason that his attack on the Kuishang Navy was equivalent to indirectly saving Constantine, but the other party didn't seem to appreciate it. Instead, he went around asking for information and wanted to deal with him. Ivo didn't understand the other party's thoughts. Constantine and Ivo behaved in different ways. The thug was very high-profile and used force to suppress a large number of low-level pirates. He owned twenty or thirty pirate ships and two to three thousand pirate men. He was a new pirate star in the Shark Sea.

Fortunately, Constantine is fighting Tyrol in the Inner Shark Sea, and Ivo's range of activities is limited to the Outer Shark Sea, and there is no intersection with Constantine for the time being. He didn't want to fight Constantine, which would only cause unnecessary damage.

The looting during this period has created new problems. The supplies in the stronghold are close to saturation, and it will take some time to convert them into actual combat power. The benefits of looting are gradually decreasing.

"Are we going to continue looting?" Barlow asked.

Everyone stared at Ivo.

"Let's stop looting for the time being." Ivo said, "Now that we have enough supplies, we can start trying the next plan."

"What's next?"

Ivo nodded, "We have basically figured out the situation in the Shark Sea. The forces are intertwined. Although we have gained some fame, our influence and threat are very limited. We want this sea area to produce various benefits for us, even To further control this sea area, we must develop open forces and spend a long time to penetrate."

Everyone was confused after hearing this.

Ivo explained: "To put it simply, we need to communicate with the outside world and recruit some people to become our manpower. With our own strength alone, the accumulation speed is too slow."

"So what do you want to do?" Ender asked.

Ivo spread his hands and said, "We need to build a port."

Everyone looked at each other.

Barlow frowned and said: "We have a bounty on our backs. If we control a port, it will attract attacks from many forces. The reason why those big forces can't do anything to us now is because our whereabouts are erratic. We cannot lose this advantage."

Ivo nodded and shook his head, "So we can't build a legal port, we can only operate a pirate port. This matter must be completed sooner or later, and it requires detailed planning. I..."

Before he finished speaking, Gavin, who was shopping on the dock, stumbled in and panted: "No, it's not good... There is, there is a fleet..."

Ivo frowned slightly, followed Gavin's fingers, opened the side window of the cabin and looked at the dock, his pupils suddenly shrank slightly.

I saw fifty brown-gold Saint-Malo warships sailing majestically through the port. The hulls of the ships were densely covered with gun ports. The workers on the dock were shocked and put down their work to pay attention to this huge naval fleet. present.

Fifty sophisticated warships are hard to find an opponent in the Shark Sea. Not even Tyrol can match them. Such a huge fleet has never appeared in the Shark Sea!

One warship has about two hundred people, and fifty ships has tens of thousands of people!

Only the Pirate King can deal with such a powerful national force!

The direction of the Saint Malo fleet is pointed directly at the Inner Shark Sea, and it is not passing by at all.

"What's going on?" Ivo asked in a deep voice with serious eyes.

Gavin hurriedly said: "I just found out the information on the dock. This Saint Malo fleet entered the Shark Sea a few days ago and inquired about us and Constantine. According to my estimate, 90% of them Maybe, they are here for Constantine!”

Ivo's heart sank. In his guess, such a huge fleet should not have appeared at all. He understood the reason after thinking about it for a moment. It was about the strife and silence among the nobles. Everything stemmed from Constantine's identity and high profile. As a result, Constantine developed a reputation as a vicious pirate and attracted a large number of Saint Malo's navy.

Although Constantine is the main target of the Saint-Malo Navy, Ivo believes that after such a large fleet has eliminated Constantine, they will never mind taking care of their "small force" that has attacked the Imperial Navy. This can be seen in their behavior of asking for information about themselves.

As long as fifty warships are willing to take the time, they can search all the islands in the entire Shark Sea. Black Bat Island will be discovered sooner or later. The safest way to deal with it is of course to escape, but Ivo is naturally unwilling to give up the Black Bat Island stronghold easily.

Constantine attracted a large number of navy, but this time Ivo was purely implicated, causing disaster.

Ivo frowned and cursed me hard.

You said that you are a brother who is feared by the king. It is not good to run for your life. You have to be so high-profile. Isn't this just asking for trouble? If I were the king, I would have to send someone to make you happy.

The sailors obviously realized this, and their expressions changed.

Barlow slammed the table, "Damn it, such a powerful enemy has come at this time!"

Ender said worriedly: "Captain, what should we do? Should we stay or escape from the sea of ​​sharks?"

Ivo licked his lips, and suddenly an exciting thought came to his mind, and he said in a deep voice: "Gavin, take the Palatine cruiser back to the base, send people to bring out all the warships in the boathouse, and move all the warships out of the boathouse. Load up all the alchemy cannons and ballistae!"

"Run away when you see the enemy. What's the point? If you don't stop doing anything, let's strike first and follow them to the Inner Shark Sea to find an opportunity to join forces with Constantine to kill them!"

Ivo's eyes flashed with cold light and he was decisive.

So what if there are fifty ships? The twenty-six warships parked in my boathouse are not just for display!

Everyone cheered up and responded with a bang.

As long as the captain is not afraid, they will have the confidence to face any difficulties.
