At this time.

If someone walks into the "Fiery Rose" tavern at this time, it is estimated that there will only be two ideas.

- "Oh, I'll be dazzled when I go to the sea!" ”

Then exit and start again.

- "Oh cake buyers, tonight's rum is really good!" ”

No one would believe what they saw.

Even if it's with your own eyes.

I saw those damn filthy and despicable pirates obediently lining up in the tavern.

It's eerily quiet.

Orderly, calm and unchaotic.

Some people are even tired of standing, so they simply squat on the ground, staring ahead, hoping that it will be their turn sooner.

"Scum! Next. ”

"The scum of the scum! Next! ”

"Not even Charlie, next."

"As a human being, you should say you're sorry. Next! ”

"Barely ...... The Harbour Queen reported to Charlie. ”

Irin was recruiting people while listening to the movement on the other side of the port.

Some of the pirates who had been blown up were recruited directly by Irin to the captain, and some of them left in disgrace and did not know where they went.

"If I'm not mistaken......"

Just when Irin was busy.

A magnetic voice rang out above Irin's head.

"Captain Skeleton Gentleman, do you think I can get on board?"

“？”

The sound seemed familiar.

Irin looked up expressionlessly.

It was a dark-skinned "man" wearing a loose outfit with a smug smile on his face.

"What the hell—"

Irin's resistance to the urge to explode, but eventually ...... Endured.

He habitually looked at the attributes panel that emerged next to "Job Seekers".

……

Ruth Emily

“……”

Ahh

Irin fell silent suddenly.

He didn't expect that the attributes of the proprietress Ruth ...... It turned out to be so good.

Even the lowest [combat power] among the various attributes has reached the C level.

If Ruth were on board, the 40 points of loyalty would undoubtedly crush the entire ship's rocking dirty pirates.

Love at first sight?

"The Next Man"?

Top Massage?

These strange words can't hide Ruth's excellent attributes as a pirate.

As for...... Will a woman be cursed with bad luck when she goes to sea?

Irin pondered for another 30 seconds.

It should be, maybe, or maybe it won't be a big problem, right?

In the selection of cannon fodder...... Ah no, when choosing other crew pirates, Irin's deliberate choice of a lot of crew members with average combat effectiveness but good luck attributes.

In this way, if it is slightly neutralized, maybe it can offset the bad luck of the two women on the boat?

Thinking of this, Irin nodded and silently stamped "Ruth Emily" to confirm the belonging.

The moment she received Irin's reply, Ruth's mouth opened in surprise and turned into an "O" shape.

Ruth didn't expect Irin to agree so easily.

Could it be that this guy has seen through her seamless disguise and her unpretentious inner beauty?

You're really a good sister to your sister!

Ruth was so excited that she couldn't wait to hug Irin and take a few bites.

Finally.

Irin worked till the wee hours of the morning, finally picking enough crew.

Although the remaining crew members who were selected were unwilling, they did not dare to act rashly under the mysterious power of "black magic" displayed by Irin as if he were casually.

Taking advantage of the night, Irin left the tavern and walked in the direction of the port.

On the sea, after the massive explosions that shook the entire island of Tetuga, the port is now calm again.

There were wrecks floating on the surface of the sea, and from time to time there were curling black smoke, which had not yet had time to be extinguished, and floated from the wreckage and melted into the dark night sky.

On the shore of the harbor, there are occasionally many pirates in tattered clothes and soaked wet, sitting on the board of the harbor, their heads down.

Da-da-da-da.

Irin didn't deliberately hide his figure, and walked slowly through all the pirates in his shiny little leather shoes.

During the time when Irin presided over the "Pirate Job Fair" to recruit crews, Irin's various legends have been spread throughout the island under the various narratives of pirates.

- "Damn Gentleman Skeleton".

- "The Devil Who Masters Black Magic".

- "Public Enemy of Pirates".

- "The Skeletal Gentleman Must Die".

- "The Rich Pirate".

- "The man who spreads fear with dogs".

Dogs?

Rumors like these add layers of mystery to the name "Skull Gentleman".

So, when Irin reappeared in the harbor in this costume, countless pirates subconsciously raised their heads and stared at the devil-like figure in the night.

There are all kinds of complex emotions hidden in these eyes.

There's hatred, there's jealousy, there's emotion, there's shock, there's fear, and of course...... Envy.

In the eyes of the pirates, this is a "man" who was unknown before tonight, but who is destined to become famous in the Caribbean after tonight.

Docked at the edge of the harbor, next to the lonely Queen, a hill had been piled up at some point.

The closer Irin got, the more he realized that the hill was full of pirate corpses.

The corpses of all the pirates were extremely hideous, and their eyes widened as if they were full of unwillingness.

“？”

Irin slowly typed a question mark.

Before leaving, he had guessed that some of the pirate scum in the tavern who were unwilling or had other plans would attack the Queen while he was recruiting.

After all, pirates are such profit-oriented creatures, and it's not hard to understand.

The corpses around the Queen also confirm that Irin's speculation is not wrong.

It's just that before leaving, Irin had already told Charlie, who was the "Queen's Floor", to fire a warning immediately if he found a pirate attack.

When Irin's crew is recruiting in the tavern, he keeps an eye on the harbor.

After all, the harbor wasn't far from the Fiery Rose tavern, and if the Queen's Horn fired, Irin'd be able to detect it.

But what about the corpses all around the ship?

Confused, Irin followed the rope ladder and re-boarded the Queen.

As a medium-sized three-masted schooner, the Queen's deck was already densely packed with people.

- Almost all of them were the crew he recruited in the tavern.

Irin didn't activate his skills when he boarded the ship, so the moment he boarded, everyone discovered Rin's existence.

But the atmosphere is a little weird.

Most of the pirates looked at Irin with fear in their eyes.

Wearing a mask, no one could see Rin's puzzled expression through the "smiley" mask.

On the contrary, it is so forceful that everyone invariably makes up all kinds of evil and mysterious expressions under the mask.

Irin let out his perception and walked all the way forward.

As Irin advanced, the pirates on the deck belonging to the "Queen", no matter which ship they once belonged to, faced the terrifying masked man in front of them at this moment, as if they had been rehearsed in advance, and they all invariably divided their paths.

Irin found the pirates' reaction a little odd.

Although this is also a result that he likes to see, the effect is inevitably ...... It's a little better.

It's beyond imagination!

At the end of the crowd's parting, Irin frowned and quickened her pace.

In the midst of the pirates, a dirty dog lazily lies on the deck.

The dog seemed to hear Irin's footsteps, and when Irin was about to approach, he raised his eyelids slightly, stretched out his paws and shook Irin twice.

Irin suddenly remembered the legend he had heard along the way.

- "The man who spreads fear with dogs".

Dogs?

This one?

Irin thought for a moment, and immediately opened the captain's panel.

When recruiting the crew, the screen was swiped so fast that Irin didn't even notice.

In the list of the crew, there is a very disobedient existence.

……

【Emperor Wang】

【Rank】Crew

[Combat power]?

[Dexterity]?

【Lucky】?

【Loyalty】0(??? ）

【Curse】None

【Expertise】?

Affiliation: Queen

……

Under the mask, Irin had a strange expression.

Squatted down in front of the dog.

"Wang!"

The dog named "Emperor Wang" barked...... Do not understand.

Irin's head was lowered and thought for a moment, then in a voice that only one person and one dog could hear: "Add a friend?" ”

"Wang~"

Thereupon.

In Irin's friend list, there is an inexplicable extra ...... Dog.

- "Emperor Wang".

This name is so domineering!

Wait.

Irin's heart moved.

This time it's a role-playing mode.

Maybe this dog will be a person inside?

He had never heard before that an apostle was a dog.

Moreover, if a dog can meet the conditions for becoming an apostle, if he says it, it is estimated that no one will believe it.

Zhao Yulong was the first to express dissatisfaction.

Irin asked directly in the chat.

……

Irin: You co-played the dog?

Emperor Wang: Wang?

Irin: ......

Emperor Wang: Wang?

Irin: I thought you were just pretending to be a dog, but I didn't think you were a real dog?

Emperor Wang: Wang~~~

Irin: "......"

Asking a few random people to interrogate, Irin's eyes were filled with fear when everyone looked at him.

It turned out that they mistakenly thought the dog was the pet of the "Captain Skeletal Gentleman".

Similar to the "Legendary Great Pirate Captain Barbossa's Undead Monkey".

Therefore, when they witnessed the terrifying scene of a dog slapping a pirate to death with one paw, they all forcibly put this horror on the name of "Captain Skeleton Gentleman", which gave rise to the legend of Skeleton Gentleman "spreading terror with dogs".

In this way, in order to complete the task, Emperor Wang Tiandi chose to get on this ship?

Yi Rin silently shook his claw with Emperor Wang.

Ignoring Emperor Wang, who was basking in the moon on the deck, Irin used his speed to edit the ranks of the crew as the captain.

Open the Captain's panel.

Click the Queen.

A dense holographic three-dimensional figure appeared in front of Irin.

All kinds of data, all kinds of blank ranks, all kinds of materials...... Irin looked at it with a big head.

Irin thought about it, and among the crew members he recruited, there were several characters whose attributes were more prominent.

So I casually assigned it.

First mate: Ruth Emily.

[Second Mate] Emperor Wang.

【Lookout】Sachs Sparrow.

【Miscellaneous Chief】Charlie.

[Gunner] ......

【Chef】......

Boatswain......

【……】

“……”

Phew! It's annoying!
