Chapter 16: Encounter with the Giant Axe Pirates
Ming's actions infected the sailors on the ship, and even those sailors with the rank of non-commissioned officer began to take time to train themselves, hoping that they could become stronger, and that they would have the opportunity to make a name for themselves in the new world in the name of justice in the future.
Karp and Bogart were very happy to see the atmosphere that Ming had brought about, especially Karp, who most hoped that he could bring out such young people so that the navy could develop in a good direction.
After lunch, the Sentinel found another pirate ship, but the difference was that it was several times the size of the one he had encountered in the morning.
Karp and Bogart, who knew the news, both came to the deck and looked at the pirate flag on the pirate ship, which turned out to be a skull and two crossed axes.
Bogart, who has learned about the recent situation in the South China Sea, frowned and said: "It's the Giant Axe Pirates, and their captain is the Giant Axe Qiongji with a bounty of 15 million, and this guy is also a ruthless character." ”
"Ming boy, are you sure about dealing with a 15 million pirate?" Karp asked Ming as he walked up to him.
Hearing Bogart's evaluation of the giant axe Jungi just now, he knew that this Junji was definitely a big challenge for him now, but even so, how could he grow up without experiencing a real life-and-death struggle.
With a raging war intent burning in his heart, he replied, "Mr. Karp, whether you are sure or not is only known if you have fought it." ”
As soon as Ming's words fell, the voice of the system sounded in his head.
"Wow! The host triggers a new mission: Exterminate the Greataxe Pirates. ”
"Mission Requirements: Require the host to defeat the Giant Axe Qiongki, and help the other sailors take down all the Giant Axe Pirates."
"Task reward: Since it is the first time that the host faces pirates with a bounty of more than 10 million, the trigger reward will be doubled, and you can get 3400 experience points and 34 million system gold coins for completing the task, and two primary healing pills."
Such a rich reward made Ming's heart become hot, as long as he completed the task, he could definitely get out of poverty and go directly to the well-off.
For the sake of being well-off, he can only go all out.
Karp looked at Ming's eyes full of fiery light, he thought that Ming was awe-inspiring, but he didn't know that it was the heat caused by the system's mission reward.
When the naval ship was about two hundred meters away from the pirate ships of the Giant Axe Pirates, Karp had people start launching cannonball attacks on the Giant Axe Pirates.
Last time, in order to get close to the Broadsword Pirates, he was attacked by someone else with cannonballs first, which made Karp's heart full of dissatisfaction, and now he wants to attack first, don't let the other party think that he is the navy in the South China Sea that is afraid of them.
At this time, on the Giant Axe Pirates, a big bald head with dark skin, tall body, and a knife wound in the corner of his right eye stood at the bow of the ship, he was the captain of the Giant Axe Pirates, Giant Axe Qiongji.
He looked at the dog-headed navy ship in the distance, his face full of doubt, because he had never seen Karp's naval ship in the past few years of galloping in the South China Sea.
Just as he was about to ask the men in charge of intelligence, Jonki heard several loud cannon shots, looked in the direction of the naval ship, and saw several shells flying towards them.
"Bastard Navy!"
Jon roared angrily, and he hurriedly shouted to the people on the ship, "Everyone take up arms and prepare for battle!" The gunners are holding off those shells with all their might! ”
"Yes, Captain!"
The crew, who received Jonki's order, all grabbed their weapon axes, while several gunners hurriedly reloaded, and then fired at the flying shells.
Boom! Boom! ……
A succession of cannons rang out, and two of the several shells fired by Karp were intercepted, and the remaining two landed near the Giant Axe Pirates and exploded.
And the two shells that the Giant Axe Pirates failed to intercept also exploded near the naval ship.
Feeling this bloody artillery battle, Karp couldn't help but have some itchy hands, but when he saw Ming on his side, he had to suppress the itchy feeling of his hands, if he made a move, then there would be nothing to do.
When Karp and the Greataxe Pirates were within fifty meters of each other, the artillery fire on both sides stopped, because if the shelling continued, it would cause terrible damage to the ships of both sides.
When the distance was only ten meters, Ming directly ran and jumped first.
In mid-air, he drew his saber and was ready to attack when he landed.
Seeing Ming jump over, the subordinates beside Qiongji pulled out their pistols and hit Ming is indiscriminately.
Ming quickly waved the saber in his hand, forming a knife net in front of him, basically blocking all these bullets, but one bullet passed through the knife net and passed by his ear, which startled him a lot.
It seems that he must practice kendo diligently, otherwise he may not be so lucky next time.
Defending against that wave of bullets, Ming finally landed on the ship of the Giant Axe Pirates.
The pirates around them watched as Ming dared to come to their ship alone, and their faces all showed malicious smiles.
Jon even sneered and said, "This navy brother is so kind to send it to the door, how can we not accept it, take it for me!" ”
Under Jon's orders, the pirates of the Giant Axe Pirates picked up their axes and rushed towards Ming one by one, preparing to inflict heavy damage on Ming in one turn.
Ming waved the saber in his hand and showed off all the basic kendo.
Originally, the pirates of the Giant Axe Pirates had axes in their hands, which had already caused them to be inferior in weapons, and now coupled with their undisciplined attacks, Ming was embarrassed to fail.
Swish!
The sword flashed, and the saber in Ming's hand slashed at the waist of the pirates closest to him, and the belts of the pirates in that circle were all cut, and their pants fell off in an instant.
These pirates still cared about cutting down at this time, and hurriedly lifted their pants one by one.
Ming took the opportunity to kick them in the face with a sweep, knocking them to the ground one by one.
Ming's actions completely angered the other pirates of the Giant Axe Pirates, and in anger, they no longer approached Ming, but raised the axe in their hands and threw it at Ming.
Seeing this situation, Ming secretly said that it was not good in his heart.
With a force of his legs, the whole person jumped up, just past the flying axe.
Landing on the ship again, the distance between him and the pirates shortened considerably, and the pirates picked up another axe that they had at their waists and slashed at Ming.
At this time, the saber in Ming's hand swept across again, and the arms of the pirates who raised their axes were all cut with a bloody mark, and the pain interrupted their attack, and Ming took the opportunity to kick them away.
Each of the pirates who were kicked into the air crashed into the pirates behind them, and for a moment an open area appeared around them.
The navy ship was already quite close by this time, and Ming was about to turn his head to beckon the sailors to come, when suddenly he heard a strong breaking wind coming from in front of him.
