Chapter 857: Skin
The secret conversation between the two top pirate governors soon ended.
Because the spell defense was raised in the end, Wilson and the others didn't hear what they discussed at all, but they only vaguely sensed that the forces and patterns in the entire ocean were about to undergo great changes.
"Humph!"
When the two legendary pirate ships finished meeting, they were even more frightened, fearing that the pirate prince would compromise with Blackbeard, and took them as a welcome gift.
Thankfully, the worst didn't happen.
Blackbeard snorted, and the giant monster roared as it re-entered the Thunder Prison.
The Wanderer, on the other hand, is a light left slide, like a peerless dancer set in the ocean, walking side by side with the Red Lotus.
"I am Roach, the leader of the Purgatory Pirates, and I have seen the great Children of the Golden Sea!"
Fang Yuan spread his arms out, palms up, and performed a courtesy.
"I'm Edward!"
The pirate prince grabbed the cable, with a little force, drew a beautiful arc in the air, and came to the deck of the Red Lotus: "Well, this is a third-class battleship of the Navy, right?" It was enough to sail in the Nightmare and the Golden Sea before, but unfortunately, in the future, even the former ace of the Navy, the first-class battleship with sails, will not be enough......"
Edward stroked the mast and let out a sigh.
With this sentence alone, Fang Yuan knew that the Pirate Prince was by no means ignorant of the changes that were taking place in Insman.
Moreover, there is enough understanding of steam steel battleships.
It's a pity, it's still the same sentence.
Even if you knew, what could you do?
A complete steam industry system cannot be completed overnight, even if the Pirate Prince is already working overtime to prepare for the war, there is at least a year away from Insman!
What's even worse is that the pirate governors who own their own territory have to fight in order to protect their own interests and honor!
Looking at the pirate prince who was sad like an old man, Fang Yuan actually felt a taste of 'twilight'.
It's like...... I saw the afterglow of the pirate's end.
"Alright, let's talk about something happy...... Captain Roach, welcome to the Golden Sea that I am protecting! ”
Edward let out a long breath and smiled brightly.
For a moment, the previous sad atmosphere was suddenly swept away.
After a short conversation, Rao is Fang Yuan also had to admit that this pirate prince was indeed a wonderful person.
Not only does he have a wealth of experience and experience, but he is not bound by the etiquette of the world.
After they had discussed the subtle differences between elven women and Terran women, Edward pulled open his collar and said as if casually, "By the way, Roach, I heard that there is a noble girl from Innsman on your ship?" ”
"Yes, her name is Elizabeth, and she is the daughter of Viscount Quia!"
Fang Yuan nodded in acknowledgement.
Speaking of which, this woman's luck seems to have been good.
If it hadn't been for the Red Lotus, but either of the two three-masted galleons before, I'm afraid that death would have been gone by this time.
"Just a woman, if Edward you want......"
Fang Yuan waved his hand so boldly that he said: "Then I'll give it to you!" ”
"That's not going to work...... According to the rules of the Golden Sea pirates that I have established, only the superior pirates can order the lower pirates to make sacrifices, and this frequency should not be too high! You're not my subordinate yet, and if I take your tribute, it's not good...... Very bad......"
Edward hurriedly shook his hand: "Moreover, this Viscount Quia is not a simple fellow, even if he does not rely on the marriage of his daughter, he defeated his rivals by a narrow margin and became the colonial governor of the Solomon Strait under Insman...... Congratulations, Captain, your slave value has increased again. ”
"So, great son of the golden sea, I wonder if you can give me a piece of advice?"
Fang Yuan thought for a moment, and his eyes flashed: "If I use this captive to extort from Viscount Quia, what should I ask for?" ”
"If you were an ordinary pirate group or a merchant, a Solomon Strait immunity would be a constant gold mine, but it would be ...... for you."
The pirate prince said sincerely, "I suggest you ask for something else, such as ...... Have you ever heard the legends of those legendary pirate ships? ”
"Naturally, the Monster, the Poseidon, the Throne, the Ghost Ship, and your ship, the Wanderer, are known to all pirates."
Fang Yuan nodded.
"Every pirate must have a ship of his own, and this will become even more important in the future!"
Edward blinked.
"Could it be...... Does Viscount Quia have a transcendent ship in his hands? Fang Yuan was truly surprised.
"No, Viscount Quia doesn't own a transcendent ship, but ...... All of the extraordinary ships are made by legendary craftsmen and mages...... As far as I know, skill and enchantment skills are only one aspect, what really matters is the materials! For example, my Wanderer, the wood used is the extinct Aeolus Tree, and of course, other extremely valuable materials, which finally put together this world's fastest sailing ship! ”
Edward looked at the Wanderer as if he were looking at his lover.
"And in the family of Viscount Quia, there is a very precious shipbuilding material...... Well, have you heard the rumors about the Poseidon? ”
"I've heard that the Poseidon is said to have the power of the Poseidon and can easily summon tsunamis and whirlpools, and call for storms to help in battle......" Fang Yuan said everything he knew.
"Not bad!" Edward sneered and shook his head: "The keel of the Poseidon is the backbone of the Poseidon...... This material is indeed unparalleled in the world, so in the middle of the sea, the Poseidon is almost bottomless, and Kingsman, the king of mermaids, can also use it to suppress the entire Coral Sea and resist all outsiders! ”
"And when the Poseidon was built, although the blood sacrifice of the Poseidon was used, some of it was still circulated, and there was a piece of Poseidon's skin, which was in the hands of Viscount Quia!"
Edward slowly spoke a secret.
"Of course, although it is the skin of the sea god, it is too difficult to cast, and even if you meet a superb craftsman who is willing to make a move, there are not many big forces that can scrape together other legendary materials, so although this skin of the sea god is also a priceless treasure, for Viscount Quia, it is not impossible to exchange!"
"I see!"
Fang Yuan took a deep breath, nodded, and looked at Edward again: "Then...... Great Pirate Prince, why have you gone to such lengths to help me? ”
"Me? I just don't want this ocean, it's too lonely in the future......"
A look of loneliness appeared on Edward's face, and he swung back to the deck of the Wanderer: "In a month's time, a great sea battle will break out in the Nightmare Sea, and pirates who aspire to be the pirate king should not be absent." ”
……
"Edward, the Pirate Prince? What a funny person! ”
Looking at the Wanderer that was disappearing quickly, the corners of Fang Yuan's mouth took up a subtle arc, and then turned solemn: "Everyone, gather on the deck and count the losses!" Also, order the Servant to move closer and report the list of survivors! ”
"Boss!"
After a long time, Wilson stepped forward and handed Fang Yuan a loss report.
This time, although they successfully crossed the Thunder Prison and came to the Golden Sea, they also suffered a lot of losses.
First of all, the two three-masted galleons, as well as the two captains of Pixar and Robert, as well as most of the crew members, were all dead with no place to be buried, and Fang Yuan, the self-proclaimed pirate captain, was immediately at risk of going backwards.
Secondly, in terms of personnel, the several prison guards sent, Yi'er and Dai Nuogu were unfortunately killed, but it was the butcher and Yune, these two honest guys survived, and I don't know if they are stupid people who are stupid.
As for the Sergeance, it was not completely destroyed, but it was so badly damaged that it is said that the poor carpenter almost fainted at the sight of it.
However, the crew on it is still largely well preserved, which is a blessing in misfortune.
"Boss, what are we going to do next?"
Bill, who escaped death, hugged Fang Yuan's thigh, and had already made up his mind that he would never leave the Red Lotus in the future, even if he gave the captain position!
"Let's go to the nearby port of Fire Krulu first, rest for half a month, replenish the crew, and find some experienced shipbuilders......"
Fang Yuan paused: "Half a month later, we will return to the Nightmare Sea. ”
"What? Get back? ”
Most of the crew's faces turned green at once.
The experience of near-death is enough once, and any more is simply a test of the heart.
"Yes, we have to go back!"
Fang Yuan's expression was cold and stiff: "Does anyone question my decision?" ”
Suddenly, all the pirates shrank their heads.
"Very well, in that case, let's decide."
At this time, Fang Yuan, on his own ship, undoubtedly had absolute authority.
……
Insman, Royal Navy Harbour.
"Sir Donald, Captain Orlando is coming!"
The butler ushered Orlando into the study, carrying gifts.
"Haha...... Welcome, welcome! My captain, do you like your new ship and equipment? ”
Donald, who was already writing at his desk, raised his head and smiled.
"I like it very much!"
Orlando politely said, "Also...... I've talked to Mr. Donald many times, and I'm curious about the Lord of the Dream Soldiers, so I wonder if you can tell me a little bit more about this being? ”
"Of course...... The mercy of our Lord shelters anyone who will take refuge in Him! ”
Donald is very good.
"That's great...... Also, Sir Sir, what are you writing about? ”
Orlando sat down and asked casually.
"A book called "On Sea Power"!!"
Donald smiled: "Later I want to send you a part of the manuscript, you can help me look at it, after all, you and I are from different aspects of the sailor, and I need the opinion of professionals." ”
"That's an honor!"
Orlando hurriedly bowed.
