Chapter Eighty-Five: St. James' Island

On the harbor of St. James' Island, four young men in rough coats with leather tied to their arms and trouser legs were on guard, most of them carrying swords, some straddled their waists, some by their sides, and some necessities such as binoculars.

A cleaned sea fish and a piece of animal leg meat were being roasted by them on the fire.

"We've been here for a few days, and we haven't seen any pirates coming, but we've been made suspicious, it's really unlucky!"

"Okay, in two days, we will be able to change the guard, don't be so hypocritical as a big man!"

"You know what! After seven days here, Chyna is going to forget about me, and I finally got into a conversation with her......"

"Hahaha, Andy, this guy wants to be good for himself, I'm afraid that Qina is looking for one."

"Hahaha......"

The other three people laughed when they heard this, but they didn't complain about being here to keep watch, after all, this pirate doesn't reason with you, someone has to be guarded.

"It's quiet, there's a boat coming!"

The noisy sound stopped instantly, and the four young men drew their swords and drew their longbows.

Even though it wasn't dark yet, they were still alert and nervous.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are navy not pirates, we have been sailing on the sea for a long time, and we saw that there is a small island here, so we came here to replenish some supplies."

Doroluth's loud voice came from the deck of the warship, and he deliberately made it louder to let a few people know that they were above board.

"You're the Navy?"

A young man with a longbow asked aloud as the others watched them.

These people were all wearing military uniforms with muskets, and they looked like the outfits of the navy, and they were all quite mental, but they were still a little suspicious.

"Don't you believe us? It stands to reason that you should have all seen the navy, you should know the uniforms of our navy, why are you still looking at us with a wary face? ”

"Military uniforms?"

Several young people looked at each other, all of them very vigilant.

Then one of the young men who seemed to be the leader stepped out.

"Who knows if you are pirates in disguise, and military uniforms may also be fake."

Dororoch didn't know what they had been through, but it was estimated that they had suffered a loss in this situation.

"How do you want us to prove it?"

"This ...... In short, you have to prove your identity, otherwise we won't let you enter the island easily. ”

Doroluch couldn't laugh or cry.

"In that case, do you have a newspaper here?"

"We only have a week-old newspaper here, and it's over there, why are you mentioning this?"

Got a newspaper? It doesn't seem to be an island with no information.

"You'll find out if you take it out and see it."

Dorolu shrugged his shoulders and stood quietly in place, stopping the movements of his soldiers with his eyes by the way, he didn't plan to make any trouble, it was a good thing for people to be wary, and it would not be too much for them to prove it.

The four of them picked up yesterday's newspaper while guarding them, and then they all looked stunned.

"Uh, you're Vice Admiral Dororoth? The photos in the newspapers look like you! ”

Every day, there will be a naval column in the newspaper, and most of the content on it is about the justice of the navy, and occasionally there will be one or two photos of the high-ranking generals of the headquarters.

In the end, a few young people, in the end, they politely let the boat into the dock, and it was the young man who missed his good friend who led the way.

Doroluth walked at the front of the group, a little behind the young man, and casually asked the man.

"What have you been through? How can you be vigilant like this, even if this is a new world, you won't be afraid to be like this, but the sword in your hand is very scary......"

Dorolu's questioning face finally lowered the vigilance of several people, and confirmed that they were not pirates.

"Hahaha, Mr. Lieutenant General, don't you know, the pirates in this new world are too rampant, no one knows what they will do, and we are also afraid, if we let the pirates enter the island, we will suffer."

Dorolu looked helpless but still a little puzzled.

"Have pirates pretended to be the Navy before?"

"Hahaha, that's not true, I don't think pirates would be that bold, but it's always right for us to be careful."

The other youths also let out hearty laughter.

That's all that has been said, if these pirates have already broken out, why bother to talk to them more?

After Dorolu led the soldiers behind him to sit down by the fire, they briefly introduced themselves to each other and learned each other's names.

Dorolu didn't know all the names of his soldiers, and at this time, they all felt very meaningful.

The youths were apparently not very interested in their names or anything, but asked about life in the Navy.

"Did Mr. Lieutenant General arrest any pirates? We've been watching the pirates' bounty orders float around in the sky, and we're so sick we've caught them all! ”

"Yes, yes, those pirates really hate people, they know how to burn, kill, loot, and bully us civilians all day long."

Dorolu was silent as he listened.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the rampant pirates are our dereliction of duty, and it is our failure to maintain the new world that keeps you living in fear all day long."

“…… It's okay, it's okay, it's not easy for you. "Well, we also have a retired navy on our island, and we know your difficulties."

Dororoch waited for them to finish before continuing:

"Sooner or later, we will enter the new world, and I promise you that sooner or later, this sea will be truly peaceful, and everyone will live in happiness!"

Dorolu didn't think about saying anything big, he just felt it, but because of his status, as soon as these words came out, as young people who still had blood in their hearts, they suddenly became enthusiastic.

While they were full of yearning for the beautiful world in Dorolu's words, they asked Dorolu about some military life.

As men, they are also at an age when they are prone to blood boiling, and their hearts are naturally full of yearning for a navy that maintains peace.

While the group was talking, the fish and the legs of the beast were cooked, and a young man took a knife and cut some meat to give them to Dorolu, and the atmosphere became more harmonious between them and the eating and drinking.

At this time, Dorolu took the opportunity to ask one of them about the situation of the island, and it was the one who had led them the way before.

"Andy, tell me the story of the island, we'd love to hear about it too."

In fact, he was really interested in the island, what happened here? How could the inhabitants of this place be so wary of outsiders.

"Alas, Mr. Lieutenant General, that's a long story......"

"A month ago, our St. James' Island was just captured by the Big· The Mom Pirates were added to the territory. ”

"They said that as long as they paid the protection money on time, they could protect our safety, and we did so."

"But who knows, not long ago, a gang of pirates suddenly attacked us and killed many of us."

At this, Andy and the rest of the group looked gloomy and angry.

"But Big· The Mom Pirates didn't care about us and let those pirates wreak havoc on the island, which made us feel terribly chilled......"

A young man said fiercely.

So we decided to break away from Big· Mom! ”

Andy has big news.

"But they were so angry that they threatened to kill all the people on the island!"

"That's why we're so vigilant."

After several young people finished speaking, they were obviously not in high mood, and even lowered their heads gloomily, making the atmosphere a little depressed for a while.

At this time, Dorolu realized that these people were not very old, at most fifteen or sixteen years old.

At such a young age, he has to take on the most dangerous sentry position, which shows that there is a shortage of personnel on St. James's Island.

"Can you tell me the name of the pirates who took St. James' Island before? If it happens in the future, I will avenge you. ”

Dorolu and the others said to them in a gloomy mood, and the latter looked surprised.

"Really? Are you really going to avenge us? ”

"Of course."

Hearing Dorolu say this, the eyes of several young people suddenly turned red, and their voices were a little choked.

"Their pirate flag is a skull full of bows and arrows, like it's called the Arrow Rain Pirates."

Dororoth's brow furrowed, noticing the resentment in Andy's eyes as he spoke.

"Andy, you're talking to Big· Mom Pirates have reported it, haven't they? ”

"They? They don't care about our island, even if we're all dead, they won't feel anything! ”

Dorolu's brows furrowed, this shouldn't be the case. Even if this St. James' Island is barren, it has been replaced by Big· Mom is zoned into the territory, how can they watch their own territory being wantonly ruined by others, this is fighting Big· Mom's face!

Between the mighty power of the four sea emperors, most of the New World is their territory, and there are four emperors to protect their safety, which is also their face as emperors.

In my territory, those who dare to move will die!

Although this sentence is a bit overbearing, it is the most suitable for the logic of the Four Emperors.

And today, there are pirates who have violated Big· Mom's territory after retreating? It was a reversal of his perception.

Although there is no explicit rule in this world that the Four Emperors cannot be provoked, nor does it stipulate that the Four Emperors must protect their territory, there are indeed some unspoken rules.
