The Pirate’s Green Bull Marshal

"Huh—the storm is finally over." Mantodia wetly pushed open the door and walked in step by step.

"It's not that you don't want to recruit more people."

A tall, thin, plain-looking middle-aged woman with brown-red hair and excellent figure followed behind.

"Every time there is something, we have to do it ourselves, please, we are the captain of the pirates!"

While complaining, the woman picked up a towel to wipe her neck and hair full of rain.

"Hey, haven't I said it many times, our Swarm Pirates only accept crew members who like insects, or have the ability of insect fruit."

Mantodia answered his wife impatiently, while looking at the ant nest made of transparent glass in front of him with glowing eyes.

This was just customized a few days ago on an island rich in glass, and there are two kinds of ants with fierce personalities inside.

His biggest entertainment recently is when feeding them, watching them fight wildly for food.

Or drop a 'huge' predator inside to cause chaos and carnage, then watch as the predator ends up being consumed and dismembered by swarms of ants.

Just like now... I saw him pinching a fat green mantis from the wooden box beside him, and throwing it into it with a playful expression.

The woman looked at him helplessly, and said, "Let's not talk about the ability user of Chongchong Fruit, your requirements for liking insects are too high, and few people can stand it."

"Where is the height, even the body and mind can't completely accept insects, so why do you like them?" Mantudia's eyes were fixed on the slaughter inside.

The woman covered her face and shook her head and didn't want to speak anymore. He said that he completely accepts insects physically and mentally, which means letting people sit in a box full of various insects for ten minutes!

Although they are all insects that don't bite people very much, but... also because of this entrance examination, there are only seventy-six members on their ship.

It's been seven years, and they've basically recruited people every time they went to an island with people, and now they don't even have a hundred people!

The key point is that the ship of the Swarm Pirates is very large, and it belongs to the kind of large sea ship that can carry seven or eight hundred people.

Normal voyages can still be carried out normally, but when the weather is too intense, the two of them have to go out to help.

But how can there be so many normal weather on this great route?

"Hey, it would be great if I could meet another bug fruit capable user, preferably from other bugs, such as ants, unicorns or something."

Mantudia watched the mantis being dismembered and dragged into the anthills on both sides with anticipation on his face. What he regretted most about his wife was that she was the same kind of insect as himself.

"The sea is so big, how can there be..." The woman was about to speak when hurried footsteps and panicked shouts came from outside.

"Captain Mantodia! Deputy Captain Roxani!"

"A warship is coming ahead! Navy warship!"

Hearing this, the faces of the men and women in the room changed, they knew that trouble was coming...

At the same time, on the warship that the pirates talked about, Barrett led the Konoha squad and lined up on the deck in four rows, looking at the pirate ship opposite from a distance.

"There are two crossed jagged insect forelimbs painted on the skeleton, which should be the Swarm Pirates."

Major General DeWitt, who presided over the special training camp trials before, turned his head and smiled at them: "They are active in the first half of the great route all the year round, and they don't go all over the world, and they don't enter the 'New World'.

"Captain Mantodia, with a bounty of 21 million Baileys, an animal with the ability to form insects, insects, fruit flowers, and mantises."

"Vice-captain Roxani, the wife of the former, has a bounty of 12 million Baileys, and is an animal with the ability to form the insect fruit knife mantis."

"A couple of praying mantises?" Barrett nodded indifferently, although he had never seen the bug fruit before,

But the animal department also killed a few.

Before that, he proposed to Lieutenant General Cornell to take the Konoha team to conduct actual combat tests.

Because he already knew that he would go to the Navy headquarters with Vidal soon, and Lieutenant Benson and the others could practice the three-three system tactics well.

In fact, none of the members of these teams is a recruit, and among them, the least number of times they participated in battles was twice.

Most people have experienced four or five fights with pirates, some in the four seas, and some in the 'Paradise'.

Lieutenant General Cornell agreed, but asked his adjutant, Major General DeWitt, to follow, and he had to choose a suitable opponent.

The right to choose is not in the hands of Barrett and the others, but Major General DeWitt is responsible for the selection and decision.

"Just them, the senior pirate group of about 20 million should be considered a moderate choice for you, and according to intelligence, their number is less than one hundred."

"Okay!" Barrett recognized this opponent, and the forty-five members including Benson and Ogden behind him also began to adjust their mentality.

The battle is about to begin!

"Everyone is ready!"

"You guys quickly put down the furled sails!"

"The gunners all returned to their positions to check the artillery!"

Mantudia orderly and loudly commanded all the people on board, "It's still the same, get ready to withdraw first, and don't fight if you can!"

He doesn't need to think about the strength and firepower configuration of the navy at all, because the navy is basically fixed in this regard.

It's just that there are some differences in the model and size of the warships, but the data of all models have been in his head for so many years.

The warship in front should be a medium-sized ship, which can carry about 800 sailors. It has 15 cannons on the left and right strings, and three batteries of main guns in the front.

So when they encountered naval warships, they would not fight if they could, especially a small pirate group like them.

And this kind of single warship should not be chasing after it.

But as time passed, the warship behind was still following them, and the distance was getting closer and closer!

"Could it be that I met Lengtouqing?" Roxani gritted her teeth and scolded, "A ship dares to chase us like this, it's crazy to think about military exploits!"

"In that case, let's fight, anyway, they only have one, and the warship is obviously faster than ours." Mantodia's eyes flashed fiercely.

"If we can slaughter them, our bounty will definitely be tens of millions more, and there will definitely be more people who will join us."

"Maybe there will be a person with the ability of the insect fruit!"

On the warship, Rear Admiral DeWitt smiled, "Sure enough, it's right to bring only one warship, it will make these pirates feel lucky."

In fact, he also knows that it is very risky to do so. Although the first half of this great voyage is called a 'paradise', there are also some difficult characters.

So he had already agreed with Lieutenant General Cornell, and there were two warships just behind them, which was a standard patrol lineup.

"Then I'll leave it to you, let me see what you've achieved in the past few months!"
