I Have Accomplished Nothing, So I Can Only Become the Pirate King

Chapter 39 Even your life cannot be compensated

What appeared in the wind and rain was a group of soldiers wearing armor and holding spears. Around them, there was a group of civilians whose hands were tied with ropes and lined up like a snake.

The group of people were in ragged clothes and staggered under the wind and rain. Some were crying loudly, while others were weeping silently. They seemed to be trying to struggle, but they were held back by nearby soldiers with spears, so they could only speed up their pace.

　　The soldiers stopped when they reached the beach. The leader, a man wearing a cape but without a helmet, waved his hand, and the group was untied from the ropes and placed on the beach.

"don't want!"

As soon as the rope was untied, one of the women with a good face cried and shouted: "I don't want to come here, I can make money! Let me go, I will definitely make money!"

 The soldiers stood straight and impassive.

The woman wiped away her tears, her eyes filled with determination, and she ran towards the jungle inside that was different from the beach. As soon as she made a move, the soldiers raised their spears and stopped her in her tracks.

 Then, the woman let out a cry of pain.

The soldier without a helmet grabbed her hair and threw her directly onto the beach. The force caused the woman to roll on the ground and rolled to Marika. She was restrained by her hands and helped her up.

 Marika patted the dust on the woman's body, looked at the man without a helmet, and said in a deep voice: "Don't go too far, Siji!"

　　“A person who is already an outcast, what else is too much?”

The guy without a helmet sneered, "But you, the former royal chef of the Deep Forest Kingdom, have to come here to suffer and hang out with these guys who have no human rights and play in the sand. Come back with me, this is not the place you should be. , your talents cannot be wasted here.”

 “I’ve said it many times”

Marika said solemnly: "I will stay here and help these people all the time. I can't just ignore them when they have enough to eat. Everyone has the right to have enough to eat!"

Xiji shook his head, raised the corners of his mouth, and said with a sinister smile: "Unfortunately, this is your last chance. You have persisted here for two years. This year is the last chance. The king has issued an order. If you refuse again, then There’s no need to go back. The recruitment ship from the Kingdom on the bridge is for you!”

"how come!"

 One of the fishermen opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "Ms. Malika has property in the kingdom! How can she be allowed to go to the Kingdom on the Bridge if she can afford the tax?"

 “Shut up, you abandoned people, trash!”

Xiji glared at the fisherman and said: "You are only people from the Qiansha Kingdom now, not from our country. How to deal with you will of course be done in accordance with the king's decree. The imperial cook Marika only used to be a member of the Deep Forest Kingdom. It’s just property. Isn’t she your ‘king’ now? Since she is the king of another country, how can she have property in our land?”

“With no property, no one to pay her protection money, and no protection from our country, this kind of guy with no human rights will of course be taken to the Bridge Kingdom!”

 “And you!”

Xiji pointed at the others and said with a sinister smile: "Some of you, your family can no longer support the 'protection money'. Next, I will read your names and put you in shackles. When the ship comes, you will be the next batch." To the existence of the Kingdom on the Bridge!"

Hearing this, some of the people in the group seemed to be ready, while others were extremely numb, as if they were used to it.

 The more this expression, the more excited Xiji feels.

This is how untouchables should be. Just go to the Bridge Kingdom to be slaves and contribute to them. Being able to survive on food like this is simply a form of rebellion.

 How can untouchables resist? !

especially.

Xiji walked over quickly and kicked over the large shell pot that was still cooking. The milky white soup mixed with the ingredients splashed out and fell into the sand, where it was eroded and washed away by the storm.

He showed a happy smile and raised his hands, "I'm really sorry. I wasn't paying attention when I was walking and I knocked over your food. If you don't have food, don't be angry. Otherwise, if you treat me as the captain of the soldiers, I have a reason to fight back. I was injured before going to the Kingdom on the Bridge. It is easy to die when I get there.”

 At this moment, a voice sounded from his ear.

Just as Xiji turned his head, he saw a black gun pointed at him.

 “My men haven’t drunk it yet”

Sarge held the flintlock gun and pulled the trigger directly. Sigidden's pupils shrank and he subconsciously wanted to hide, but he couldn't do it in time.

 Click!

  Nothing happened except the sound of the trigger being pulled.

Sarge fiddled with the flintlock gun and shook his head: "It's flooded and can't be used."

 It is true that once something like a gun is filled with water, it cannot be fired.

 “You guy! Are you kidding me?”

 Green veins popped out of Xiji's forehead, and his hand was placed on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 simultaneously!

Just as his hand touched the hilt of the sword, a cold light flashed quickly. The next moment, Xiji felt the world spin, and then his eyesight went dark.

Lily put the rapier back to her waist with an expressionless expression. With a soft sound of sheathing, a head fell from the air and fell on the beach.

 For a moment, there was total silence.

 “The clothes are also dirty.”

Sage drank the soup in the shell in one gulp and threw the shell away. Looking at the dirt on his abdomen, he glanced at the head and sneered: "Your life can't be compensated."

 “Captain!”

 “Captain Xiji is dead!”

 “Rebellion! This is rebellion!”

The remaining soldiers reacted at this time, and quickly raised their spears, and were about to point them here, but at this moment, gunshots burst out from behind.

 Bang, bang, bang!

 The first soldier fell down with blood splattering on his body.

In the sea water behind, Renedia stepped on a small boat and took two pirates to glide this way until the boat approached the shoal. Renedia jumped down, twisted the musket in her hand, and turned it into a Small tool hammer.

"It smells so good. What does it smell like? Are you having a party again? Damn it, why did you let me stay?" Renedia sniffed her little nose, her eyes darting around.

Even on the boat, she could smell the aroma wafting over her. The aroma that even the storm could not block out naturally made her index finger move. She happened to see Sage and the others gathering there again, so she came over with two of her men.

 “The party is over, Letty, help me change it.”

Sage threw the flintlock gun to her and said: "This thing can't be used on rainy days. It's too inconvenient, and the bullet can only be loaded with one round. Please give me more."

As he said that, he looked at Marika, "The Kingdom on the Bridge? If you want to go to that kind of ghost place, why not come on the ship with me? Anyway, it's almost the same. Being a slave or being a pirate is a choice everyone can make." Bar?"
