Chapter 1005: Robbery while the fire is on
"Jancy!"
Bertram shouted.
The Brie rushed to the rudder. After the old captain Grufeld left disheartened, Jancyy was the best helmsman on board.
Bertram didn't need to say another word, the Brie knew what he had to do. They are in a very disadvantageous position. If they couldn't rush out before the two ships were encircled, they would be stuck here, facing several times more enemies...... At this moment, the only thing they could rely on was the boat that had saved them countless times.
The stone slid down the mast. Both he and Bombu are adept at manipulating the sails, and their many encounters in distress have allowed them to react faster than other sailors. Perhaps they were too calm, and the sailors, who had been a little flustered, rushed to their respective positions. When they were hired, they knew that one day they would encounter the Black Sails Pirate, and Bertram never hid the dangers they might encounter.
It's just that no one expected it to be so soon.
In the midst of a brief moment of confusion, a sailor quietly approached Jancy. As soon as the dagger hidden in his sleeve slipped into the palm of his hand, a little cold light greeted him.
The sailor fell straight down without even having time to scream. Gichel withdrew his hand and raised an eyebrow at Bertram with a smile.
Bertram shrugged his shoulders and snuck in one or two spies, but fortunately they were already wary.
"Terry!" he shouted.
Protecting the helmsman was the most important thing at this time, and if that fast-running Strey had opened a portal or something behind Jancy, Gischel's dagger would not have been enough.
However, the little mage ignored him. He still stood still, his empty gaze not knowing where to go, the ancient incantations coming out of his mouth lacked a hint of sacredness, but he rarely disappointed.
He nearly flew out when the ship swerved sharply. Bertram grabbed him with one hand and the rope with the other, and was about to open his mouth to curse, when Terry whispered, "Catch it." ”
There was still a lack of tension, but with a little excitement and pride, so cute that Bertram couldn't help but touch his head.
Debstrray, who appeared on the deck out of thin air, looked stunned and angry, and before he could escape, Gischel's slender figure shot straight at him, and Terry opened his fingers and closed them together, and the invisible air turned into a cage, cutting off Stray's retreat.
"I'm a little bit more powerful. The little mage told Bertram without modesty.
Bertram couldn't help but smile and praised: "Well done!"
The Unicorn had adjusted its direction and plunged straight into the gap between the two enemy ships, and was about to get out of the trap when its hull slammed off.
Bertram, who was holding the rope, swung in the air with the little mage, and his heart sank as he watched the two sailors fly out of the ship.
"Vortex!" Stone cries out in disbelief as he hugs the mast, "It's so big!!"
Bertram breathed a sigh of relief.
He had thought that there was a more powerful mage on the other side, but the moment he swung out, he could already see that this huge whirlpool that suddenly appeared swept the two enemy ships together.
He was a little suspicious that the dragon was underwater...... But doesn't it recognize the Unicorn anymore?!
“...... That's the Unicorn. Stobel reminded in a whisper.
Ed didn't say anything, didn't he recognize it? The bow of the ship contained such a shiny horn, he had to be blind to see it!
But in his opinion, these so-called adventurers are no different from the other greedy fellows who come to fish for dragons...... Maybe worse, they'll brag and deceive people!
Stormbell looked at his hand paddling unhurriedly in the sea, sighed to himself, and was secretly frightened.
He knew that Ed had been the sage of the god of water...... He knew that his bloodline was different, but it was terrifying to manipulate the power of the sea so easily.
So powerful...... If you add capriciousness, it's quite a headache.
Just like another Scott.
The mage shuddered involuntarily from his own imagination.
Ed glanced at him and silently withdrew his hand, he didn't really want their ship to be destroyed or anything......
"I have to go to that boat. "They probably found Is." ”
Otherwise, you wouldn't have fought yourself inexplicably, right?
Stobel nodded, gesturing to the young man operating the ship.
"I'll go with you. He said.
Ed didn't refuse. **The name of the division tower is sometimes quite useful.
"But......," the mage added, "the other two ships, most likely pirate ships." ”
Ed was stunned: "...... Black Sails?"
"It's unlikely that an ordinary cargo ship would be an enemy of the Unicorn in order to grab a dragon. "Those adventurers are not easy to deal with...... And it is very respected by the Brie people. They saved the owner of Rainbow Bend Island, the leader of the Buri people. ”
“...... I really didn't want to do anything to them. Ed had no choice but to say.
That's not what Stobel said when you smile, young man!
When there were suddenly two more people on the ship, Gichel did not hesitate to swing his sword against the mage, without the slightest hesitation.
But it wasn't the other party's spell that stopped her, but Terry's sudden yell.
The voice was pleasantly surprised, and it seemed like a ghost. Gichel's movements were only a moment, and a huge cobweb had already fallen.
She rolled away, annoyed, but Bertram grabbed her and shook her head.
She could only stare at the two uninvited guests menacingly, one was definitely a mage, and the other looked like a rich young master who had nothing to do, and was looking around with some curiosity...... But it made her feel a strange pressure.
The hull of the ship stabilized as the vanishing vortex steadied, while the other two ships retreated in opposite directions.
It wasn't of their own free will. Bertram looked up at the sails. Their sails were barely moving, but the sails of the other two boats were puffed up in the strong winds.
The pirates, who sensed that the situation was not good, took advantage of the situation and left, but they did not seem to be willing to leave, until Stormel raised his staff, and the purple smoke showed the sign of the ** division tower in mid-air, and the five tall towers stood in a circle.
“...... Welcome!"
Bertram smiled brightly, "You're just in time! These pirates are getting bolder, aren't they?"
He casually pointed to Debstrray, who was knocked unconscious by Gichel on the ground, "That's right, can I give this guy to you?"
The corners of Stobel's mouth twitched, and he nodded silently.
“...... Did you find the dragon?" asked the black-haired young man beside him, "where is he?"
His eyes were wide and the smile on his lips could almost be described as innocent, but there was something in his eyes that made Bertram furry inexplicably.
This is...... Is there another wave of robberies who are taking advantage of the fire?
