The rank of guard on the third merchant ship is not at all in the same class as the first two.

The first two merchant ships only had a guard of about 100 men with an average force of about 15 and a captain of more than 60 troops, while the third ship was at least three times as many guards as the first two in terms of strength so far.

Moreover, the third escort also had a fairly elite archer, and the other two pirate forces were sniped by that archer, and it took more than half an hour, not only did they not kill the merchant ships, but they also paid a heavy price.

However, despite the heavy price, the two pirate forces never had the intention of retreating.

It's not that they don't want to, it's that they don't dare!

Compared with Zhang Yanlai, these pirate groups who eat under the Tiger Shark Pirate Group are more afraid of Tiger Shark.

After all, Zhang Yan hasn't made any big moves for a year or two, and he hasn't heard of Zhang Yan killing anyone in the past two years, and if they offend Zhang Yan, there may not be anything wrong, it's a big deal to turn around and run out of Hokkaido to hide for a while, but if they offend the tiger shark, the situation will be different.

The Tiger Shark Pirates are notoriously ruthless, and if they dare to flee at this time, they will definitely be hunted down to death by the Tiger Shark Pirates.

Therefore, under the silver power of the Tiger Shark Pirate Group, they can only grit their teeth, even if they have to pay a heavy price for this, they have to take this merchant ship.

But while this group of pirates has the determination to go to Blackreef, sometimes determination alone is not enough!

The quality of the escort on the third merchant ship was quite amazing, even if there were pirates several times their size, they could easily resist it, and according to this trend, they might not be able to hit the ship even if they ran out of people.

Fortunately, the Tiger Shark Pirate Group quickly issued an order to involve the two pirate groups, Sharp Knife and Black Reef.

After the Tiger Shark's order was given, the Black Reef Island side hesitated a little about the Tiger Shark's order and did not attack immediately, but the sharp knife immediately attacked.

With the rapid support of the sharp knife, the battle situation on the pirate's side has improved somewhat, and gradually some pirates are able to kill the merchant ships, but the guards on the merchant ship side have obviously made detailed preparations, and the pirates will be defeated even if they are killed, and the battle situation is still in a state of stalemate.

"A bunch of waste, so many people have been attacking a merchant ship for so long, it's just a bunch of rubbish! Also, what are those doglegs doing over there? Didn't Lao Tzu let them attack? What are you doing there? Li Yan pointed at Liu Cheng's Black Reef Island, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

"Give me the order to attack immediately, and tell them not to take that merchant ship to Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will let them fall to the ground!"

At the same time that Li Yan was furious, the pirates under his command also waved the flag and ordered the attack on the side of Blackreef Island.

At the same time as their flag was played, Liu Cheng and their side of Heijiao Island also began to act.

At this time, the people of Blackreef Island basically got on the C-class merchant ship they had just taken, and that merchant ship was piloted by Zou Lan and other pirates with [Elementary Navigation] skills, and turned its head and crashed into the third merchant ship.

Seeing this scene, Li Yan was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed greatly.

"Damn bastards, what are those doglegs doing? There are a lot of good things on the boat, what if he hits Lao Tzu like this, what if he bumps into Lao Tzu? Tell them not to bump into it! ”

The Tiger Shark Pirate Group frantically played the flag to make Liu Cheng's side stop acting, but at this time, Liu Cheng completely ignored the flag of the Tiger Shark Pirate Group, and directly let Zou Lan drive the boat and crash over.

When the pirates saw Liu Cheng's merchant ship crashing over, they were so frightened that their faces turned white, and they fled in a hurry with the pirate ship before Liu Cheng's merchant ship collided.

"What are you running, let them block Lao Tzu!" Li Yan roared angrily, and the flag of the Tiger Shark Pirate Ship was also frantically waving.

It's just that at this time, whether it is Liu Cheng or those pirates, they don't have time to look at the flags on the tiger shark pirate ship.

At this time, those who should hit still bump into it without hesitation, and those who should hide or flee in a hurry.

A moment later, a loud 'boom' sounded, and the C-class merchant ship that Liu Cheng and the others were piloting directly crashed into the third merchant ship.

The collision of the C-class merchant ship caused the two merchant ships to shake for a while.

However, Liu Cheng's side was already prepared for the impact at the same time, and the shaking caused by the impact did not cause them much trouble, but the situation on the merchant ship side was different.

They didn't notice that Liu Cheng's merchant ship had collided at first, and by the time they saw it and reacted, it was completely too late.

Under this wave of impact, the guards on the side of the merchant ship were directly staggered, and the originally rigorous defense system was completely disrupted.

And this is what Liu Cheng wants, after the collision of the two merchant ships, Liu Cheng's command quickly adjusted, and under the leadership of Zhang San, directly crossed the merchant ships that were already only sticking together and killed the opposite.

"Hurry up, kill it, don't let them take the lead!"

The three pirate forces below saw that Liu Cheng's side had already killed the third merchant ship, and one by one they immediately pounced on the merchant ship as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

At this time, after a round of collision, the defense system of the third merchant ship had collapsed, and in the face of Liu Cheng's attack, they were simply unable to resist the attack of the pirate group such as the sharp knife.

As a result, after Liu Cheng's Black Reef Island killed and injured the third merchant ship, in just a few minutes, the other three pirate forces were also killed.

A merchant ship with a length of 35 meters and a length of about 15 meters is certainly not small, but such a merchant ship, after killing four pirate forces at the same time, this merchant ship is a little small.

Originally, those pirates thought that the battle would be basically over if they killed and injured the merchant ship, and the escort of the merchant ship should bow their heads and surrender, but the real situation was beyond their expectations, the escort team on that merchant ship was extremely brave, and even if it was killed by the pirates, it had no intention of surrendering at all.

Even though they were surrounded by enemies several times their size, the merchant escort still resisted stubbornly under the command of a middle-aged man.

With the convoy stubbornly resisting, and the four pirate forces not willing to negotiate with the merchant ship at all, in this case, the merchant ship inevitably becomes a meat grinder, and the bloodshed and carnage spread to every corner of the merchant ship.

What's interesting is that in this battle, although Liu Cheng's posture was the largest, their movements slowed down significantly after the other three pirates came up.

Liu Cheng seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally handing over the battle to the other three pirate forces at this time, he was obviously afraid of something at this time, and if you followed Liu Cheng's gaze, it was obvious that Liu Cheng was afraid of someone at this time.

At this time, his eyes were staring at the middle-aged man of the merchant ship escort.
