The Dragon Pirates have been driving against the wind for a month, which is inconceivable to the people on the shore, but the reason for driving against the wind is actually very simple.

In the headwind, the sailboat does not really move against the wind, but on the side of the hull and also on the side of the sail, allowing the fierce wind to pour into the sail. In this way, the wind will blow the boat diagonally forward.

When using this sail direction, the boat will deviate from the course, so the sail direction must be adjusted from time to time to correct the course, so the sailboat is like a "zigzag".

Even headwinds can't stop the seafarers.

In the past few days, the rescued Red Locke has gradually improved, he is in good health, he has not been crushed by the fever, he has stopped taking medicine, and he is able to find some work on the ship as a way to repay the dragon pirate group for saving their lives.

Donk chatted with Red Rock a few times and learned more details.

Red Locke is targeting a caravan transporting silk, but he has only two pirate ships at his disposal and doesn't have many men. He didn't find a suitable partner, so he had to temporarily buy a big ship that was about to die to fill the façade.

Red Locke's Blade Pirates were going well in the beginning, and their fleet was like a wolf. When the caravan saw this, it was so frightened that it set sail and fled, and one of the slow ships fell behind. The pirates caught the stragglers and successfully carried out the raid.

But before the pirates had time to cheer for victory, the cannibal pirates appeared!

The Naga fishmen swam out of the depths of the sea, with flexible webs, sharp claws, and half-corroded weapons in their hands. They scuttled through the bottom of the ship, conveying messages of excitement to each other in the sea.

Holes appeared, clear water gushed out, the people on the ship were busy, the pirates freed the prisoners they had just captured, and everyone scooped up the water and repaired the ship together.

But to no avail.

As the sea frantically injected, the sailboat continued to sink, from slow to fast. The pirates saw that the momentum was not good, and they lowered their lifeboats to escape. Four large boats, a total of ten lifeboats, more than eighty people sat on them.

Some lifeboats are paddled, while others are flying. The lifeboats swam in all directions, and the people on board had only one thought, and that was to escape.

The four great ships sank one after the other, and the poor worms on board who had not grabbed the lifeboats fell into the hunting grounds of the Naga fishmen.

The Naga people stabbed their prey in the sea, and the blood of the dead quickly stained the water. The deaths of these people will not be in vain, and they will be a sumptuous dinner for the Naga fishmen.

The smell of blood spread freely in the current, and many carnivorous fish smelled this tempting smell, but when the fish saw the presence of the Naga fishman, they chose to avoid it, and in the long process of reproduction, the fish instinctively knew the danger of the Naga fishman.

The Naga fishmen split up, most staying where they were to kill the prey in the sailboat, while others swam in pursuit of the fleeing.

Red Locke's lifeboat is overtaken by two fishmen. The fish-man overturns the boat, and Red Rock falls into the sea with the other pirates. The pirates and the fish-men fought in the sea, and all the others were killed, except for Red Locke, who finally supported and killed the two fish-men, and then turned over the boat and continued to escape.

Red Locke had been adrift at sea for five days, ravaged by scorching and thirst, and he had only caught two fish, which had resulted in a bad stomach and even worse health.

Later, Red Locke was lucky enough to run into the Evil Dragon Pirates and was rescued. In order to avoid the cannibal pirates, the Evil Dragon Pirates changed their course and took a long detour, and they are still safe.

Red Locke's expression was as gloomy as a cloudy midnight when he finished recounting his experience, and he didn't shed tears, but others could clearly feel the pain in his heart.

One-Eye comforted Red Rock a few times, as the two had the same experience, and their pirate group was wiped out.

The sea is the cemetery of the pirate group, and no one will sing an elegy to the pirates, let alone pay their respects every year.

"What are your plans for the future?" Donk looked out at the sea, he carried the bottle in his hand, and Red Locke sat next to him, carrying the bottle as well.

Red Locke clenched the mouth of the wine bottle and said firmly: "I still want to re-form a pirate group, I will not be defeated by this setback, I am Red Locke, as long as this life is still there, I cannot be defeated!" ”

"Good! It's a gentleman. After hearing this, Tang Ke's heart stirred, "I talked to you this time, and I wanted to persuade you to become my subordinate, but seeing that you are so backbone, I won't force you." ”

Red Locke reached out and pressed Tang Ke's shoulder, and said gratefully: "Thank you, you will be my forever friend in the future, although I can't be willing to be someone else's subordinate, but in order to repay your life-saving grace, I am willing to serve you for a while, until I feel that this favor is answered." ”

"It doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't take much effort to save you, and when you get to the shore, you can leave if you want. When the time comes, it is not difficult to find someone who is compatible with you and grab a ship in the port. Tang Ke felt that the twisted melon was not sweet, and some ambitious people were not suitable for income.

"No, although it was a rescue for you, but for me, it was you who gave me a second life, and if I don't repay it, I will have trouble sleeping for the rest of my life."

"Okay, I'll borrow your hand for a while, and you can be a boatswain in the regiment." Donk didn't want to shirk anymore, Red Lock's strength was good, and staying in the pirate group for a while would also be of great help.

"That's it, this cup is for you, my temporary head of the regiment." Red Rock gave a rare smile.

"Ding! You have a new crew member. ”

…… The goal of the dragon pirate group remains the same, and they are unrelenting to Ginza Island, and what awaits them in front of them is a big war, and the pirates don't take this big battle seriously, even the newcomers.

Because everyone believed that Donk would lead them to victory.

In the morning, the fleet casts a shadow in the steaming day, engraved on the waves. At noon, the pirates sweated profusely and pulled up the ropes and shouted the pirate song. At night, the mirror-smooth sea is filled with starlight and is breathtakingly beautiful.

Leaning one ear against the bottom of the mast, he took out a package from his bosom, carefully untied it layer by layer, and took out a small notebook, which was his treasure. This notebook was picked up by him when he was a child, and it depicts the manufacturing method of the magic boat, and the patterns of the sailing ship deeply attracted him.

In order to be able to understand the contents of the notebook, he learned the most hated words, and chewed the notebook to the fullest.

The magic ship is like a sun, illuminating his life, and he is inspired to build a magic ship with this as his goal. He stumbled for this dream, was ridiculed, and was rejected, but he never gave up.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Red Locke happened to be passing by and leaned forward and asked.

"The notes for making the magic ship are great, aren't they? Even though I've memorized everything in my notes, I still like to read them when I don't have to. Look at the shape of this ship, how beautiful, like a swan lying on its stomach. One ear stroked the pattern on the note, and his eyes were like water, as if he was looking at his lover.

"I don't see anything pretty, but it seems to me that a sailboat should be fast enough and firepower strong enough." Red Rock shook his head.

One ear thought that Red Locke was a rough man, and did not understand the beauty of sailboats, and he thought to himself: "Maybe one day someone will ask me to make a magic boat, and then I will be able to try my hand." ”

"Don't tease me, pirates going to be magic ships?" Red Rock smirked.

"What's wrong with the pirates?" One ear asked, glaring at Red Locke with a warm and angry voice.

Red Rock shook his head, in his opinion, the people who make the magic ship are all university scholars, but one ear doesn't look like a university scholar.

One ear saw that Red Locke was belittling himself, and suddenly became angry, pointed to Red Locke's nose and said, "It seems that we are not all the way, and there is no way to communicate at all." ”

"Old boy, take your stinky hands away, standing in front of you is Red Locke, swordsman Red Locke."

"How dare you scold me!" One ear bounced up from the ground, "If you are soft now, I can look at the face of the regiment commander and not care about you!" ”

"Ridiculous, let me give in with you?" Red Rock stared at one ear with contempt, and although he was not fully recovered, he was still confident in himself.

The atmosphere between the two was tense, and they were about to draw their swords at any moment, and the sailors saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly informed Donk of the matter.

Donk walked out of the captain's quarters and hurried to the scene, shouting as he went, "Bot and Red Lock, both of you calm me down!" If you dare to do anything on the ship, you will die! ”

Almost all pirate groups forbade private fights on ships, and conflicts within the pirates had to be enduring the voyage, and could only be resolved by a duel with a gun or sword when they reached the shore.

Donk's words served as a deterrent, and the two angry pirates didn't make a move, but they still glared at each other. Donk arrives and stands on the side of the two pirates, who look left and right and see that both pirates look like they have seen a bull with red cloth.

"Alright, you both go back to your room, go back to me now!" Donk stood in the middle, like a referee, making a gesture of separation.

One ear still refused to let go of the other, and he pointed to Red Locke's nose and said, "When I get to the shore, I will have a duel with you, you wash your neck and wait!" ”

"Okay. I'm here to help! "Red Rock is also untimid.

Tang Ke slapped his head, and the contradiction was magnified at this moment, but he would not come forward to mediate, he couldn't expect the pirate group to be obedient and obedient, it was normal to have contradictions, and this contradiction could only be solved in a violent way.

Fortunately, they won't be on the shore for a while, and the next stop is Ginza Island, but there is no chance to give the two pirates a duel. Perhaps before they reach the shore, the knot of conflict between the two pirates will be unraveled on its own.

"Report, a small island has been found at 30 degrees to starboard!"
