Pirate System

( ) Deku raised his eyebrows when he heard this and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"You should understand what I mean very well. When the Three Kingdoms Alliance fired the first shot against the small pirate city, the tsunami had already arrived. The five great empires have grown into behemoths by relying on the national strength accumulated by sea transportation over the years. From the comparison of strength It seems that the power of the five empires is far greater than that of the pirates on the sea. What's more, the pirates are all in disarray. After the tsunami, most of them have chosen to escape or quit. Even my Golden Beard Pirates Group There have been many cowards who defected. If this tsunami is allowed to continue to rage, the winner will only be one of the two alliances or the Three Kingdoms alliance, and it will never be the pirates. By then, the life of the pirates will become very difficult , and may even decline. I think this kind of ending is definitely not what you want to see. If you want to turn the tide and help all pirates survive this tsunami, you must have someone who is strong enough and has great appeal. A man ascended high and called out to summon all the pirates under his command to fight against the five empires together. With my strength and charisma, I cannot do this. Throughout the past and present, only Roger, the first pirate king, could do it, so I Will want to resurrect Roger." Golden Beard explained in a loud voice.

"Since you want to resurrect Roger, then just take the Golden Beard Pirates to rob the Fountain of Death. If you are willing to use all the strength of the Pirates, I think there is still hope."

"No, the backbone of the Golden Beard pirate group has another big thing to do, and they can't rob the Fountain of Death with me, so I thought of asking you, an old bad guy, for help."

"What big thing do they want to do?" Deku asked curiously.

"The Cormanzo Empire in the Three Kingdoms Alliance dared to attack my little pirate city. Of course I couldn't bear it. During this period, I have been preparing for an attack and now I have accumulated enough troops. The Three Kingdoms Alliance is leading the way. Soldiers attack the Fountain of Death, intending to fight a decisive battle with the two alliances. During this period, the defense of the Cormanthor Empire is at its most empty. I plan to take this opportunity to take revenge on the Cormanthor Empire and attack all the coastal ports of the Cormanthor Empire. Start plundering. This requires a lot of troops, and all the troops in the Golden Beard Pirate Group must be pledged. Therefore, I can only rob the Fountain of Death by myself, and other members of the Golden Beard Pirate Group must The backbone of the army must be responsible for attacking the Cormanthor Empire." Golden Beard answered truthfully. Since he wanted to ask for help, he naturally couldn't hide anything.

Deku's expression changed slightly, his eyes widened and he said, "You are really ambitious this time. You have made such a risky decision, not only to seize the Fountain of Death, but also to plunder the entire country of Cormanthor."

"A serious illness requires harsh medicine. I have already taken the risk this time and must bring down the five empires."

"It seems that the Cormanthor Empire's attack on the small pirate city has completely angered you."

"Yes, the anger in my chest has never been extinguished since that incident.

"Golden Beard reached out and touched his thick left chest. Under those layers of skin, there was the most active ambition in the world.

"The Cormanthor Empire really stung a hornet's nest this time."

"It's not just a hornet's nest, it's a dragon's lair! They poked the dragon's lair, and they have to pay the price with blood." Golden Beard waved, "Okay, don't beat around the bush with me, give me a quick answer, you Are you willing to help me snatch the Fountain of Death? As long as you are willing to help me. With the strength of our two top experts, we will definitely be able to snatch the Fountain of Death. When the time comes, we will use the Fountain of Death to rob the other Fountains of Resurrection. Find it and resurrect Roger, the first-generation Pirate King. I have his bones in my hand, and I can resurrect him as long as I collect the resurrection fountains."

"This is a fatal matter. You have to give me some time to think about it, right?" Deku frowned.

"Weren't you very happy when you were young? Why have you become such a mother-in-law when you get old? If you want to consider it, think about it now. I don't want to wait too long." Golden Beard urged.

"Damn it. If it were another person who spoke to me in this tone, I would definitely throw him to the trolls. But it's you, the bastard, who said this to me. I have nowhere to vent my anger. "Deku snorted depressedly, frowning, thinking about the importance and feasibility of this matter.

The golden beard in the mirror waited silently for a reply, no longer urging Deku.

Deku thought for a while, then spoke again, and said in a deep voice: "If all the pirates die, the Pirate City will cease to exist, and I don't want this outcome to happen. If we can bring ten If the powerful Roger is resurrected, he will definitely be able to reverse this unfavorable situation and revitalize the pirate community. Moreover, the Pirate City was built by Roger himself, and the Pirate Code in my hand is also a treasure left by Roger. In a certain sense, To put it bluntly, I am an unworthy successor to Roger. In order to resurrect Roger, I am willing to work hard with this old bone, and it is absolutely my duty to do so. But..."

"But what?" Golden Beard asked.

"But I can't believe you!" Deku said bluntly, "Pirates are all fucking bastards, and you are the bastard among bastards. Who knows what you have in mind. You keep saying you want to resurrect Roger. Maybe someone else will be resurrected by then. If you want me to help you, you have to do two things. The first thing is to hand over Roger's bones to me and prove that these are Roger's bones. It's not someone else's. The second thing is that after you capture the Fountain of Death, you must hand over the Fountain of Death to me for safekeeping. You must also hand over the other Fountains of Resurrection to me for safekeeping. You must not interfere. If you agree If so, I will help you and work with you to seize the Fountain of Death."

This time it was Golden Beard's turn to think. He thought for a while, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will do as you say. Roger's bones and resurrection spring will be handed over to you for safekeeping, and the resurrection ceremony will also be carried out by you." You take care of it. In addition, I swear here with the dignity of a man that I will never lie to you this time, and I truly and sincerely want to resurrect a generation of Pirate King Roger."

"Okay, once I believe you, this matter is settled. We two old men will go crazy this time and fight against the five empires at the place where the Fountain of Death comes. Let them know that fighting for They are not the only ones who dominate the sea, there are also a group of guys called pirates who are trying to grab this piece of cake from them!" A long-dormant heat flowed out of Deku's old body, and his body had not had heat for many years.

"We haven't fought side by side for a long time. This time let's find the feeling of youth." The corners of Golden Beard's mouth raised, revealing his signature crazy smile. His face glowed with excitement, and his golden beard trembled.

Not to mention the two high-ranking parties, even the messenger who was responsible for delivering the letter seemed very excited. As a small person, he witnessed this agreement between big shots. Not to mention participating in it, just witnessing it made him feel honored.

Today's agreement adds a new variable to the battle a few days later. Who will be the winner of the Fountain of Death? This question still has a big question mark.

…

time. Soon after Goldenbeard made an agreement with Deku.

The location is under a wall on the outer wall of the main castle of Pirate City.

The character, the mysterious fortune teller Ivy.

She had been standing under this wall just now, listening to the inside of the castle with her ears hidden in the shadows. She heard what she wanted to hear, and now it was time to leave.

As she walked, she murmured to herself in a low and inaudible voice: "No, Golden Beard, you are wrong. The real tsunami has not arrived yet, it is just a small wave now. When the tsunami really arrives, At that time. All people in this world will be forced to a dead end. Fate will turn into a sharp blade and give everyone the final sentence. He is the only one who can deal with that tsunami. He was chosen by fate, and he will eventually Will break the chains of fate.”

…

Tangke sat in a closed cabin with four other team members. Use straps similar to seat belts to secure your body to the chair. Opposite them is a rectangular glass through which you can see the outside of the cabin. The material used in this mirror is very special. It has also been reinforced with magic and magic. It is stronger than most metals and can withstand severe impacts.

Several of them are top-notch experts. You can feel the hull of the ship tilting and the surrounding water throbbing. This means that the Strong Shield is going deep into the Fountain of Death, gradually approaching the dangerous whirlpool, which may be the entrance to the abyss, the gate to hell, or other more terrifying places!

Tang Ke found that other people's heartbeats were more or less faster than his own. There were not many things in this world that could make their first-rate powerhouses feel their heartbeats speed up. From this, it can be seen that the Fountain of Death gave How much psychological pressure they bring.

Since the Fountain of Death appeared in the world, no one who has entered the Fountain of Death has survived, and among the people who have entered, there are no ordinary people, but all are well-known and powerful people. This is the cause of the invisible pressure of the Fountain of Death.

Entering the Fountain of Death, the first feeling you get is that you are going to die.

The more times like this, the more Tang Ke wants to pretend to be more relaxed. He spreads his hands, smiles at the people around him and says: "Everyone, relax, just think that this is a trip, and it is a free trip, no. It costs a penny.”

"This trip is not about money, but life." Ada said calmly. The sea dragon of his sea dragon knight is not with him now, but has been arranged in a larger cabin next door, because his sea dragon is too big and cannot be accommodated here.

"Optimistically, maybe everything will go well on our trip and everyone can come out alive." Tang Ke said casually.

"I think Tang Ke is right, we should be more optimistic!" No. 5 raised his mechanical palm in agreement, and sprayed out a stream of white steam from the large canister on its back.

"To be honest, it's hard for me to be optimistic based on your few words, but I can become optimistic when I think about the bounty after I come back alive." Solu interjected with a smile.

Everyone glanced at each other and said something to each other, gradually livening up the atmosphere, but just when everyone was chatting happily, the Strong Shield suddenly accelerated its speed and rushed forward. The rectangular glass that was originally above the sea level suddenly sank below the sea level. Black waves hit the glass fiercely, making a muffled sound, as if a wild beast was beating on the window, eager to rush. Come in and choose people to devour.

The course of the Strong Shield shifted. Instead of moving straight forward, it turned into a curve. The hull tilted sharply inward, almost forming an oblique angle with the sea surface.

It seems that the Strong Shield has rushed into the edge of the vortex and is spinning towards the center with the power of the vortex.

There are several communication channels on the roof of the cabin that can be used for communication. From these channels, the panicked shouts of those on the ship can be clearly heard. Tangke and the others can sit here and wait quietly, but those people have to continue to keep the ship sailing. Tang Ke and the others still have hope of survival, but these people have no hope of survival at all, and are destined to be buried in the sea today. Not even the bones will be left behind.

This is the era of the sea. Some people live for the sea, and some die for the sea.

The Strong Shield was about to sail into the center of the black whirlpool, and everyone was about to enter the extremely dangerous Fountain of Death. Even a careless person like Tang Ke was not in the mood to gossip anymore. The cabin fell into silence, and everyone's eyes fell on it. On the rectangular glass, watch the changes outside.

The speed of the ship became faster and faster, and the black water completely engulfed the Strong Shield, and nothing could be seen outside the window. All that can be seen is bottomless darkness.

There were fewer and fewer shouts coming from the microphone, but some black seawater flowed out of it and fell into the cabin. It seemed that the seawater had seeped into the ship.

Tangke had the illusion that the ship had sailed into the belly of some giant creature, and that they had all become snacks for the giant creature.

The situation has changed rapidly, and new situations will occur almost in the blink of an eye. The human voices in the microphone have almost completely disappeared, and some are just screams. The water flowing out of the speaking tube changed from a thin stream to a violent gush. It sprayed violently into the cabin, and water seepage also appeared in some other corners. The water level of the black sea water continued to rise, first submerging everyone's feet. Then it went down to the calf.

Judging from this posture, it won't take long for the black sea water to fill the entire cabin, thanks to the water-proof beads on everyone's body. Don't worry about breathing underwater.

The Strong Shield was finally sucked into the center of the black vortex, and the ship's hull was like a powerless leaf, spinning rapidly in the vortex.

If it weren't for Tang Ke and the others wearing belts. It will definitely be thrown away by this rotating force and hit the opposite side.

"Ah, the ship's rotation made me a little dizzy." No. 5 said, pointing to his head. This tough guy can even tell cold jokes.

The joke isn't funny, and even if it were, other people wouldn't laugh at it.

The rotation speed of the Strong Shield reached its peak. It no longer seemed like it was circling, but like it was spinning. When the speed of the Strong Shield reached its limit, it suddenly stopped and began to sink vertically. This means that the ship has been sucked under the whirlpool and is heading to another space under the Fountain of Death.

The bodies of Tang Ke and others turned sideways, and the sea water also turned sideways. All the gravity was attached to the left side of their bodies, and the right side of their bodies was facing upwards. This is by no means a comfortable position to sit in.

The Strong Shield kept falling, as if someone had been thrown from a high place. It was still pitch black outside the window, and nothing could be seen. An unknown force was attached to the ship, causing an unbearable crisp sound. Under the impact of this force, several defensive magic arrays hidden on the ship popped out, trying their best to resist this force. The sound of the hull breaking suddenly disappeared, replaced by the sound of mysterious power clashing with the magic circle. This sound did not last long, and the magic circle that the empire was proud of was soon shattered.

Invisible pressure was added to the ship again, causing the ship to make a sound on the verge of breaking.

It was dark outside the cabin, but not dark inside. With the radiance of magic power and the light of various small treasures, Tangke could clearly see the condition of the cabin wall.

Along with the uncomfortable sound, cracks appeared in the ship's bulkhead and continued to expand.

Tang Ke originally thought that more black seawater would pour in, but he guessed wrong. There was no seawater pouring in from outside the crack. Instead, a lot of seawater flowed along the crack to the outside.

This means that the outside is no longer the bottom of the sea, but another space!

Tang Ke intentionally broke away from the belt and flew out to see what was going on, but his reason stopped him, and the others did not act rashly. Everyone had the same idea, wanting this ship to bear the first baptism of the Fountain of Death for them, and then fly outside after the ship was scrapped.

The cracks on the hull grew rapidly, and the glass was the first to shatter, disappearing into the bottomless darkness. The planks of the ship then shattered, breaking into smaller and larger pieces, following in the footsteps of the glass.

It was pitch black outside, so dark that it made one's scalp numb, because this was not a naturally formed darkness, but a darkness created by another force. No one knew what was inside this darkness.

Tang Ke couldn't hold it in any longer. He stretched out his thumb and lightly swiped the belt in front of him. He drew a line of sword energy with his nails and cut the belt. He left the table and jumped into the darkness, shook out his sword wings, cut through the darkness, and fell rapidly downwards. The overwhelming pressure hit him, as if countless giant dragons were trampling on him. He relied on his sword energy to resist the pressure and didn't feel too strenuous.

The other four people followed closely, each using their special skills to resist the pressure in the darkness while falling.

Emily opened her parasol and used the wind to block the pressure. Solu was also a swordsman like Tangke, and he also used sword energy to protect his whole body. Alchemy leader No. 5 was covered in metal and was not affected by the pressure at all. He was able to withstand the pressure. Ada found his own sea dragon and rode on the dragon's back. He was a fighter himself. In addition to using the power of the sea dragon, he also inspired a purple fighting spirit.

The five people fell into the darkness together, and no one knew what kind of danger would be waiting for them. (To be continued...)
