Narak Island is not an island, but perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it the Nalok Islands.

A huge island shaped like a horseshoe, surrounded by a dozen smaller islands, all in the shape of a drop, lies between the north and the south of the continent.

It is only ten days away from the feared sea of storms, and only three days away from the beloved Larbo Sea.

It's the home of outlaws at sea, the kingdom of crazy pirates, and a nightmare for all ordinary ships, including the Imperial fleet.

With the small ring and large terrain, coupled with the location far from the land, the Imperial fleet that came to encircle and suppress it was exhausted and defeated many times.

Over time, although there were countless gold coins on the Naro Islands, the price to be paid was still prohibitive for the nobles.

The sky was a little overcast, and the sound of muffled thunder signaled that a storm was coming soon, and the butterfly, wrapped in a black cloak, shrunk into a pinhole in her eyes, looked out at the Narok Islands in the distance.

The eerie glow of the Jackdaw vanished, and the marks of slashing and axes covered the hull, as if it had just been a major battle, and the orcs on board were hiding in the cabin, and only the human crew was still working back and forth outside.

The ship's Jackdaw flag was replaced by a skeletal pirate flag, and under Butterfly's command, the Jackdaw slowly sailed into the horseshoe-shaped island of Narak.

In their previous experience, they have always adhered to the principle of not docking if they can, so this is the first time that the Jackdaw has been here.

On the way to the main island within the scope of the archipelago, the second mate of the Jackdaw, the human youth Vaughn, also knew why the imperial fleet of this ghost place could not get in.

Even the small islands that surround the periphery, at the top of the rock walls in each key direction, have huge wooden structures, what are they not siege engines and crossbows for defending the city?

"Where the hell did they get these things, and they still sit on the rock wall?" Vaughn couldn't help but ask.

"After a hundred years of development, the last thing they lack is gold, and in the past, the two empires hired ships to harass each other, so there may be pirates who change their skins to do this kind of business. ”

Die'er retracted her gaze and helped the scimitar on her waist, "I don't believe you have the opportunity to go and take a look, those city guard bed crossbows may still have the words "Made by Kaiadir." ”

"Actually, it's okay to have this thing on the ship, right?" Vaughn thought about it very seriously.

Die'er glanced at him, a smile on the corner of her mouth, and stepped forward to the edge of the second deck, "The ship is indeed safe, but only the three-masted ship can hold it, and the two-masted ship can open the deck for you with one shot." ”

Vaughn rolled his eyes, leaned closer and said, "Captain, do you want to bring my brothers back with two planes before leaving?"

Die'er finally couldn't help laughing, and shook her head helplessly, "Use it as a burning stick?"

Vaughn was stunned for a moment, and smiled embarrassedly, indeed, on the sea, what ship can beat the Jackdaw?

"Alright, go down and get ready, we're new here, we'll have to say goodbye to the dock in a while. ”

"Yes, Captain!"

After Vaughn left, Butterfly was alone holding on to the railing of the second deck, the stone carved with clover on her chest was slightly warm, the Jackdaw suddenly seemed to have a consciousness of its own, the unattended sails turned its own direction, and several ropes were like nimble sea snakes, automatically controlling the force.

With the sea breeze blowing, the Jackdaw dodged reef after reef below the surface of the water, avoided many man-made traps and obstacles, and finally sailed into the belly waters of Nalok Island.

The arrival of a three-masted ship naturally attracted a lot of attention on the shore, after all, the configuration of the Jackdaw was enough to serve as the flagship of a fleet.

At this time, the sky became more and more gloomy, and the violent sea breeze was like the roar of the sea god, stirring up waves one after another.

The black skull flag was hunting, and on a wooden building, two older pirates were drinking fruit wine and turning their heads to look at the entrance and exit of the sea.

"New here? I haven't seen it. ”

"What newcomer, not from here, can get out of the reef maze out there so smoothly? ”

"You're just confused, Lao Tzu was born here at the age of thirteen, and it's been more than forty years now, such a big three-masted ship, once you come here, Lao Tzu can remember it for a lifetime!"

Another old pirate pouted, "I don't know which captain's new ship, if only I could have such a ship." ”

"No, drink two more glasses, in your dreams. ”

Bang ...... As a shower of rain fell, the Jackdaw folded its sails and slowly stopped in port.

Butterfly pressed her captain's hat, and her dirty face showed a sense of heroism in the wind and rain, although female pirate captains were uncommon, but not absent.

For example, Julianne, one of the four pirate kings of the Nalok Islands, is a female pirate who terrifies the Imperial Navy.

Its most famous deed is that it once relied on only twenty-five ships to directly enter the naval port of Kaiadir, and after paying the price of a sunken ship, it came out intact, and even robbed a lot of supplies.

Whether it is hatred or bounty, Julian, the queen of the seas, has steadily suppressed the other three pirate kings.

And her usual style is also very cheerful and heroic, although few people have seen her real face, but it does not prevent her from being the object of all pirates' dreams.

Even the ordinary captains of Sea City, such as Idoris, are proud to see Julianne in person, and as for danger, according to word of mouth, as long as your ship is broken enough, Julianne will generally not attack you.

With a soft thud, the Jackdaw came to a complete stop, and an inexplicable smile appeared on the corner of Butterfly's mouth, and she walked along the pedal to the shore of the harbor.

Stomping on the old cowhide boots, Butterfly straightened up, and glared sideways at the crew members who disembarked from the ship in a diarrhea manner, meaning: All of them have come down, who is watching the ship?

The first mate of the tiger man hid in the cabin because of his race, and the second mate Vaughn hurriedly stepped forward and arranged the batch of people who took turns to be on duty and take turns to get off the ship to rest.

"Boss, everything they ordered is counted in my account. Die'er pointed to the crew behind her, slapped the table again, and threw a small cloth bag over.

The boss wore a tattered captain's hat, reached out and checked the chabu bag, his eyes were shining with more than two dozen glittering gold coins, the boss smiled, revealing a missing front tooth, and pointed out a vacant seat for Die'er and his party.

There were quite a few people in the tavern, but the storm outside was getting stronger, and the sound of violent thunder and rain even drowned out the noise of the tavern.

Second mate Vaughn took a sip of fruit wine, lowered his body and asked, "Captain, more than two dozen gold coins are happy to be like this, doesn't it mean that there are countless gold coins in this pirate kingdom?"

Die'er shook her head: "It's the same on land and sea, you are in the North Continent, when did those nobles' gold coins give you? The real rich are those big pirates who are in the limelight, and most of them are taken here, or those who are too old to go to sea, or too young to go to sea, here is no different from land." ”

Vaughn nodded thoughtfully, "In that case, if we want to find the Tiger Shark and inquire about the news of Duke Barlov of the Sea, we still have to start with these old men." ”

Butterfly chuckled and took a sip of fruit wine, her favorite was the Tiger First Officer's honest appearance, but there was no ambiguity in fighting, and the second Son's Vaughn's clever brain.

The most powerful people here are the four pirate kings, the knights of the sea, the evil god of the sea, Julianne, the queen of the sea, and Baroff, the duke of the sea.

Among them, the evil god of the sea and the duke of the sea, Baroff, are from Honoris, because in the waters of Honoris, there is really no suitable territory as a base camp, so no matter which country the pirates are, they all take Naluo Island as their foothold.

Baroff, the Duke of the Sea, is a person who really has the characteristics of all pirates, but he has no special hobbies, compared to the cruelty of the evil gods of the sea, the intelligence of the knights of the sea, and the mystery of Julian, the queen of the sea, it can be said that Baroff looks like a serious pirate king.

Julianne has an unpredictable personality and is very mysterious.

Legend has it that the Sea Knight has always had an unclear connection with the nobles of the Empire, at least with his brain, half of the supplies for the Naluo Islands came from him, which made him the least risky of the four.

As for the evil god of the sea, man is as his name suggests, and it is naturally not a good stubble to bear this name, even a lone pirate does not want to meet him at sea, and black eating black is commonplace, and legend has it that he likes four things the most: gold coins, the sea, limbs, and underage girls.

Butterfly is glad that the Tiger Shark's whereabouts have something to do with Baroff, not with the sea god, otherwise they would be really difficult to deal with.

The Jackdaw is naturally not afraid of them at sea, but on land, the big octopus can't go ashore, and as for the other abilities of the lucky stone, Butterfly is not sure that it will kill a way out of this fortress-like Naluo Island.

The rain outside the tavern was getting heavier and heavier, and until she understood the terrain here, Butterfly didn't dare to let the crew run around, so everyone could only drink here.

At that moment, a glass of fruit wine was slapped on the table, and an old pirate with wrinkled skin and crippled legs sat down next to Butterfly, next to Vaughn, the second mate.

"Great pirate captain, I think you might need a little help. ”

Die'er and Vaughn glanced at each other, the corners of Die'er's mouth were slightly upturned, and Vaughn's eyes were cautious.

"Maybe we can hear if you have any news worth the gold coins. ”
