The east coast of the Nuolan Continent is close to the sea, with a coastline of thousands of kilometers, many countries from north to south, and hundreds of sea area names.

Among them, the northern Diman Sea, the Nuolan Central Sea, the Hailing East Sea, and the Bishui Bay sea area are more famous.

There is no clear division of sea boundaries in these four sea areas, and land countries can hardly control the affairs of merchant ships in the sea unless they are docked.

As a result, on the boundless sea, there are often tragic disputes.

Whether it was pirate killing or caravan fighting, people died almost every day, and only those fleets with powerful warships survived.

So how does the small fleet survive? Their way of survival is simple, first, to pay tolls to pirates, and second, to pay protection fees to large fleets.

This is the case with the Aiyman fleet.

The Pirate Queen Aiman, is a wild elf on the sea, who owns three merchant ships and a small warship.

Such strength is not eye-catching, and it can only bully weaker fleets, but the presence of Aiyiman makes this fleet extremely eye-catching.

For no other reason, Ai Yiman is so beautiful, and beautiful women can always get countless attention.

It is rumored that three years ago, the pirate king Blake, who wantonly ravaged the Central Sea of Nolan and extorted three major fleets without scruples, kidnapped Aiyiman and asked him to be the lady of the island.

As a result, Ai Yiman not only left the pirate island unscathed, but also fascinated Blake, and no longer possessed her by violent means, but began to pursue a gentleman with great courtesy.

Although it was a rumor, everyone believed that it was true, as many sailors had seen the pirate king Blake board Eiman's ship, though he was driven down by Aiman in disgust each time.

"Speed up, the queen asks to arrive in Phuket within seven days, don't be lazy!"

In the eastern sea area of Hailing Country, there is a small fleet sailing at high speed on the sea where there is no edge in sight.

It is said that it is high speed, but in fact, it is just a strong paddle with the help of strong winds.

The sails of the three merchant ships rattled, and the cabins filled with spices and leathers and fine iron ore rattled.

On deck, sailors who observe the wind direction and control the sails are busy panting, constantly adjusting the position of the sails.

And behind the three merchant ships, followed by a small warship.

It was no more than thirty meters long, half the size of a merchant ship, and its trebuchets creaked in the wind, and armed soldiers sat chatting.

On the deck of the warship, Ai Yiman, dressed in a strong suit, stood in the wind, two braids blowing high behind her, and a fluffy sheepskin shirt tightly wrapped around her wonderful body.

"The queen seems to be in a hurry, why does she want to go to Phuket so much, is our cargo to Phuket?"

"There must be money to be made, otherwise the queen will not return south, how good it would be for everyone to go home for the winter."

"Why do I think the Queen is a little nervous? She's been nervous these days, is there any trouble? ”

The soldiers munched on dry beef and talked about it, and from time to time poured a sip of wheat wine.

At this moment, a stout man with big cheeks ran out of the cabin, he was in his forties, and his face was about to cover his forehead.

The soldiers hurriedly stood up and saluted, this was the vice-captain Meade, the most trusted assistant of Queen Aiman.

"Aiyiman, we've been out of the Pirate King Black's sphere of influence for three days, and we should be fine."

Mead ran to Aiman's side and exhaled slightly.

Ai Yiman glanced at him slightly, and his face was as cold as the cold sea.

"Blake is just harassing me once in a while, but the people of the three fleets are really going to use real knives."

"What?" Mead was taken aback, and at the same time puzzled, "Aiyiman, we pay protection money to the three major fleets every year, and they also let us go every year, why do you suddenly say such things?" ”

The three major fleets, namely the Sea Devil Fleet, the Great Whale Fleet, and the Sin City Fleet, are the three overlords of the sea, each fleet has fought against the most powerful pirates, and they are also the only three fleets on the sea that do not need to pay tolls to pirates.

"When we do business with Phuket Island in the future, it will not be the fleet of the Bishui Bay maritime trade area, in fact, we have been kicked out, and it is very possible to be found fault."

Ai Yiman said coldly, Mead grabbed the long sword: "This is unreasonable, we were forced by Lord Raji, but we just sent some materials to Luo Lan, the main business is still in Bishui Bay, those people laugh at us, there is no reason to find fault." ”

Mead didn't know about rum, and he thought that this time he was just sending some material to deal with Lord Raj.

"Of course it doesn't make sense, it's fine if it's another fleet doing business with Phuket, but don't forget, those damn bullies have been thinking about me."

Ai Yiman indifferently stated the fact that her beautiful flower of the sea might be plucked.

"This ...... Then marry Blake, love Iman, starting with your father, our fleet has been struggling for nearly ten years, and it still hasn't improved. The pattern of maritime trade is dead, and we must form alliances to be truly secure. Blake always harasses you, but it's also because he likes you, and if you keep ignoring him, I'm afraid ......"

Meade's wrinkled forehead wrinkled, and his beard was like frozen wool in the autumn wind.

Ai Yiman looked up at the sky: "I've said many times, I don't like Blake, and when I take control of the ocean, he can only kneel and surrender." ”

"Hey."

Exhausted, Mead sighed deeply, then stared nervously in the direction of the coast, where a fleet of ships suddenly appeared.

"Alert, alert, strange ships approaching!"

The soldiers on the warship also noticed the situation, shouted loudly, the horn sounded, and the three merchant ships in front slowed down, waiting for the instructions of the warship.

Aiman looked calmly to the east, and in the midst of the waves, a large fleet of ships was approaching at a rapid pace.

"One, two, three...... Seven, seven merchant ships, two warships, and that devil's flag, it's the Sea Devil fleet! ”

Mead exclaimed, staring at the flag fluttering in the wind with a pale face.

The flag is blue-gray and embroidered with a terrifying image of a demon beneath its feet in the boundless water.

That's the legendary sea devil, the demon of the sea.

The use of this flag is one of the most powerful fleets at sea, the Sea Demon fleet.

The master behind the Sea Demon fleet is the Diman Empire, the first northern empire, which is not only invincible in the sea, but also has a monopoly on land trade.

The crew of the Aiman fleet trembled, and they were extremely afraid of the Sea Demon fleet, which was from the depths of their hearts.

The biggest source of fear is the captain of the Sea Demon fleet, Adri, who is one-eyed, thin, and fond of women, and will play with them whenever he returns to land.

His toying is not an ordinary toy, but a nue to death, and it is even rumored that Adri likes to eat women's flesh, and he is an old man who is even more terrible than the sea devil.

"Prepare the stone cones, the archers are in position, and all the swords are unsheathed."

Ai Yiman's woolen sweater was blown to the sound of hunting, and his tall body was like a straight sword.

"Ready, fight!"

Mead drew his sword and shouted in a trembling voice.
