Chapter 14: The Pirates
More than ten years ago, the North Sea...
In the sea of corpses and blood, Gaji, who was surrounded by many battles and was full of embarrassment, sat on the ground panting heavily, and Sora, who was worried about her husband, was treating her. Wearing a pair of heavy glasses, Iko was on a confinement period.
"It's almost time to leave the port."
"Ike, thank you this time."
For Gaji's thanks, Echo smiled innocently: "You and Sora, are my best friends, I should help you." β
"But your nephew..."
"Since you take the road of pirates, then you will encounter anything."
"Vegapunk has sent me an invitation, Echo, won't you come with me?"
"I'm not interested in any of this..."
In order to help Gaji, the old priest Echo broke off with his pirates, defeated the navy or Kingdom Guard again and again, and finally helped Gaji out of danger.
At this time, Gaji, as the last descendant of the Kingdom of Jerma, embarked on the road of fighting tyranny with an ideal and vision, but was hunted down on the charge of piracy.
Along the way, the old priest fights side by side with Gaji, and his wife Sola does not give up, so that they can unite and defeat wave after wave of enemies.
In order to help Gaji, Echo almost wiped out the entire pirate group, and even his nephew, a mechanic with great talent, died in a battle.
"In the future, I will definitely revitalize the Kingdom of Jerma."
Eventually, Eco refused Gaji's request to join Vegapunk, leaving him alone in the North Sea to take revenge on the group.
As if he was a lone wolf, the old priest became cold-blooded and ruthless during his stay in Beihai, many enemies died tragically at his hands, and the political leaders and underground forces of various countries were also afraid of him. Hence the name Priest of Death.
Later, when Gaji returns to the North Sea, he kills the Four Kings of the North Sea as a dragon slayer, but Echo soon discovers that his former partner has changed from a dragon slayer to an evil dragon.
The past friendship began to fall apart, and Gaji was no longer the same Gaji he used to be, and even his own family began to give up his feelings.
"Sora, what did you say?"
"Echo, I want you to help me... I don't want my children to become emotionless killers. β
Sora has been hospitalized due to her frailty, has a gentle personality and a beautiful appearance, and has a slight resemblance to Lei Jiu in appearance.
Unable to contact the outside world due to a long hospitalization, she is dissatisfied with Gaji's transformation of the children into heartless machine superpowers, and in order to prevent this from happening, she finds the old priest Echo.
"Reversing the bloodline factor comes at a great cost, Sora."
"I don't regret it, Echo, please, help me one more time."
In desperation, the old priest agreed, when Sola was pregnant, she was given drugs that were enough to affect the bloodline factor, and after the child was born, her body gradually weakened due to the sequelae of the drugs.
Since then, the relationship between Gaji and Aiko has since deteriorated...
Ten days ago, the relationship that had long been a stranger was already strange, but because of Lei Jiu's engagement invitation, the old pastor and the Vince Mock family were involved again.
"You help me one last time to assess Lei Jiu's fiancΓ©."
"You bastard, you're still so suspicious..."
Although he scolded Gaji, he was still worried about Lei Jiu, because this child was not affected by the bloodline factor, and was as kind and gentle as her mother, so Aiko was very concerned about her life's events.
For Sora's sake, for the sake of his past friendship, Iko eventually captures Ikeki at the engagement ceremony.
Iki is a very ambitious young man, and in him the old priest sees the young Gaji. This frightened the old priest because he felt some kind of pressure from Iki.
In the future, this young man may be even more terrifying than Gaji...
Every night, sometimes the old priest couldn't help but want to kill the young man, and he didn't want Sora's tragedy to happen to Lei Jiu again.
But every time he saw a large number of drafts, design drawings, and all kinds of painstaking notes on Yishu's desk, the old priest relented.
The nephew who died studied as hard as he did... But...
With an ambivalent mentality, the old priest constantly instructed Yishu in all aspects of his abilities, not only gun fighting, mechanical transformation, and even swordsmanship.
Five days later...
On the outskirts of Crimson Island, fifteen moving discs constantly switched formations, encircling and circling Yishu in all directions.
Holding the Okuyama sword in one hand and the short spear in the other, he waited for the surrounding discs.
These are all mechanical tricks made by the old priest, and under the control of the old guy, they attack Yishu from multiple angles.
The old priest Ike's eyes were serious, he was in a different mood today, and Ikeki keenly caught his mood changes.
Iki was in the middle, facing the disc thunder, and the gunfire suddenly rang out. Yiki smashed a trick mine with one shot, producing a violent explosion at the same time, and multiple trick mines poured in from behind.
In the midst of the firelight, Iki cooperated with the Oyama sword and the short spear in his hand to complete a wonderful offensive and defensive battle, and in three minutes, all the treacherous thunder created by the old priest was destroyed.
"In five days, you have mastered the skill of hand-to-hand gun fighting, and your talent is indeed very strong..."
The old priest threw a notebook to Yi Shu: "The core of sniper rifle fighting is in this notebook, and you will slowly learn and understand it in the future." β
"Won't you teach me personally?"
"Hehe, in the past five days, most of my skills have been deceived by you, do you still want me to continue to be your nanny?"
When learning melee gun fighting, Ikeki felt that his swordsmanship was still weak, so he asked the old priest to guide him in the essentials of swordsmanship. On weekdays, when he was free, Yishu found various reasons to ask the priest about various mechanical modifications, and the old man knew everything.
Of course, Yishu knew very well that the old priest himself intended to teach these to himself, and both sides were willing to learn and the other to teach, so they naturally got along very happily.
"Give me all the sniper rifle fighting notebooks, are you going to let me go?"
"The Vince Mock family pays you a ransom, and you can get out of here."
Vince Mock has not gained anything in Yishu's house in the past few days, and the only valuable thing is a historical document of O'Hara with an unknown history, so he has no choice but to let the old priest release him first.
Itsu knew very well that there was nothing to be gained from Kaji's side, so he would let himself go.
"But I still want to stay here and study for a while."
The old priest's face was very cold, and his right arm turned into a giant cannon aimed at Yi Shu's head: "Let you go, I have a ransom now, what else do I need to leave you little bastard for!" β
What kind of bitter drama are you doing...
"So I'm really leaving?"
"."
The things confiscated before were thrown over by the old priest and placed on the table, and Yi Shu simply sorted them out: "But how can I leave?" β
"There's a dinghy on the shore, you can use it to go."
Looking at the young man's back, the old priest smiled: "Gaji... You let me know so much, do you really think of me as a trustworthy companion? β
When Iki stepped into the boat prepared by the old priest and slowly left Crimson Island, a huge group of pirate ships appeared on the distant sea, sailing in the direction of the Crimson Island where he had left.
Countless cannon muzzles were erected on the pirate ship, and a pirate flag that Iki had never seen before was revealed, representing a sudden upheaval.
The strange pirate group directly surrounded the entire sea area around Crimson Island.
Ikeki smelled the pungent smell of blood, this pirate group must have looted the surrounding area once during their coming.
A large number of stumps and severed arms, which were stacked on one of the ships weathered and dried ...
