Chapter 12: Pirates

In February of 1511, the temperature was still relatively high in this tropical region.

As the sun shines down, everyone feels warm, even in a short-sleeved shirt, and they don't feel cold.

On the beach, Ellie, Angelo, and Leah are playing on the beach, Angelo and Leah are sitting there building sandcastles, while Ellie is holding a basket to collect shells and starfish.

It was a month and a half since the Navy caught the Blackfish, and although the capture failed and a lieutenant colonel died, the Blackfish also disappeared without a trace.

After a month of observation, all the villagers of Nar Village came to the beach with confidence.

"I picked up a lot."

Ellie returned to the two with the basket and said with a grin.

"So much? Would you like to give me one? Leah asked with a smile as she looked at the shells in the basket.

"Absolutely." Ellie glanced at the little girl and turned red.

"Can you give me one too?" Angelo asked.

Avery immediately snorted coldly and said, "You go pick it up yourself." ”

"Okay."

Angelo lowered her head, whether Ellie was not on good terms with herself, why did she have a completely different attitude towards herself and Leah.

But at this time, Leah's body was sluggish, looking into the distance, and said in a daze, "Sea, pirate." ”

"Huh?"

Avery and Angelo immediately looked into the distance, only to see that in the distant sea, a pirate ship flying the pirate flag was heading towards this direction.

"It's a pirate, run."

Ellie shouted, tossed the basket aside, and turned to run towards the village.

Leah and Angelo followed closely behind, returning to the village, spreading the word throughout their bodies.

。。。

"Pirate ships?"

Behind the pirate ship, a huge black sea fish slowly emerged from the sea, its eyes fixed on the pirate ship in the distance.

This pirate ship has a strange shape, with a pig's face on the bow and two masts, but it is much larger than a normal two-masted merchant ship.

Seeing the direction of the pirate ship, Blackfish observed a moment of silence for the village of Nar.

The black fish is now Xia Qiu, at this time, he is about fifteen meters long and weighs about thirty-five tons.

In just one and a half months, he has grown from a weight of about two tons to thirty-five tons, which is a bit unbelievable.

But this growth rate did not go beyond the scope of summer and autumn.

In a previous life, it only took eight months for a blue whale to grow from seven meters to fifteen meters.

And in the world of One Piece, I ate more, digested faster, and transformed more efficiently, which greatly shortened the time, and it only took a month and a half.

Now Xia Qiu, the head is huge, and there is a bulge on the forehead, and inside is a hard bone that can ram the enemy.

He has a huge mouth with seven layers of sharp teeth, the front teeth are serrate, and the back teeth are molars, which is convenient for crushing food.

He has eight long whiskers on the side of his mouth, the longest of which is about four meters, and his thighs are thick.

His eyes are huge, his eyelids are thick, and when he closes them, he can't even break through his sharp teeth.

Xia Qiu's body is huge and stout, with a spindle-shaped body, like a siege hammer.

In summer and autumn, the fins become very large, and the dorsal fin is no different from before, but the pectoral fin, pelvic fin, and caudal fin have hard spines.

The pectoral and pelvic fins, with only one hard spine at the front edge, protect the fins and make them harder and more impactful.

As for the caudal fin, like the second dorsal fin, it is separated by several hard spines and is also connected.

The scales of the fish in summer and autumn are transformed and grown again, and the largest scales are the size of a basin and extremely thick.

After the change, in summer and autumn, because of the huge size, it is no longer possible to get too close to the island.

This is also the reason why the villagers of Nar Village see less and less summer and autumn during these times.

Xia Qiu looked at the pirate ship in the distance, his eyes had a hint of bloodthirsty taste, his mouth was cracked, and his teeth refracted a terrifying light in the sun.

This is a pirate, plundering wealth and taking people's lives.

Although in this manga, some pirates pursue strength and great secret treasures, some powerful pirates will even protect the village and hang their own pirate flags, and some pirates have their own spheres of influence and industries.

But it has to be said that many pirates are villains who have no regard for the lives of others.

I'm a fish and eats people, so I rarely substitute human feelings, and I'm disgusted by the evil of pirates, but I won't be too righteous.

However, Xia Qiu took the pirate ship in front of him as a target and thought about how to attack.

The evolutionary energy of human flesh is special and powerful, and it can help one's body have more power when it does not allow one's body to change its size.

In this way, he will not just increase and thicken, but let himself have combat power far beyond his body size and weight.

If you need to verify the role of human flesh, you need to prey on humans.

However, he was limited by his size and could not get close to Nar Village, and he was unwilling to hurt innocent people at will.

The pirate ship in front of you will be the best choice.

"It's down."

The pirate ships approached the shallows, but the water depth was limited, and they couldn't get to the side of the island.

So they put down the two boats, and the two groups of pirates jumped into the boats, and a total of twelve pirates, rowed the boats, and sailed to the island.

The boat rushed to the beach, and they jumped out of the boat, brandished guns and long knives, and rushed towards the village.

The water depth is about the same.

The location where the pirate ship stopped, there is still a long distance from the bottom of the sea, and you can get close.

Xia Qiu slowly sank down, approached the pirate ship, approached a distance, stopped, continued to dive, and waited quietly.

。。。

"Get out of the village of Nar."

The inhabitants of Nar Village were prepared by Elli and the other children, and all the men gathered together, armed with harpoons, spearguns, crossbows, and shotguns, and aimed at the pirates in front of them.

"Boss, what should I do?"

Seeing twenty or thirty strong men holding weapons in front of him, the second officer stood there with a somewhat difficult expression.

With such numbers and equipment, it is already possible to stop them.

"You people want to stop us too?"

The leader of the pirates, holding a huge mace, suddenly swept sideways.

Click.

A tree of the thickness of a person was cut off at the waist and smashed heavily on the ground, raising a large cloud of dust.

"This ......"

When the villagers of Nar Village saw this scene, their faces were a little worried.

But the village chief stepped forward and said, "Our village is under the jurisdiction of the 154th branch of the navy, and we have already notified the navy by phone bug just now, presumably they are already on their way here." ”

"Huh?"

Hearing this, the leader of the pirate group narrowed his eyes.

It is indeed not easy to manage an island under the jurisdiction of the navy.

The leader of the pirates snorted coldly and said, "So you let us run for nothing?" ”

The village chief immediately said, "As long as you are willing to leave, we are willing to prepare food, water and a reward for your group." ”

"Okay."

The leader of the pirates thought about it, if he insisted on fighting, his side would definitely be injured, and if he injured and killed the villagers, he would also be pursued by the navy.

It's okay for your own pirate group to bully the village, but against a branch base, even if it's just a warship, your own pirate group is not an opponent.

It's good to get paid.

The leader of the pirates agreed to the deal, and the village chief handed them a few cattle and sheep and fresh water, and they first sent someone to deliver the goods to the ship, and then, under the vigilance of the villagers, slowly retreated, stepped into the boat, and sailed towards the pirate ship.

On the sea in the distance, seeing the two small boats coming back, Xia Qiu, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, turned into a black shadow and rushed towards the direction of the boat.
