Chapter 257: Shot

He knew that the other pirates would definitely fight this batch of goods, but he didn't expect the three families to unite together, although the naval battle of the Murakami Navy was strong, but to deal with the three coalition forces far above him at the same time, he had to think carefully.

It is precisely because of this that the three naval armies of Yansa, Awaji, and Bungo decided to join forces temporarily, and they did not want to start a war with Murakami in the Zhoufang Beach, otherwise they would never have brought only a few warships. If a large fleet is dispatched, it will definitely be detected by Murakami's navy in advance.

Neither side wants to have a fierce and uncertain battle, and they do not want to give up huge sums of money, so they can reach a mutually acceptable consensus in such a short period of time.

Although this surprised Long Tao slightly, but the pirates will inevitably have a fight in the end, as for whether they are divided into two parties or three parties, four parties to fight, it is the same for Long Tao, the most interesting thing is that they chose to go to Long Tao's ship to gamble, it is really in Long Tao's arms!

The four fleets gathered towards Itsukushima and scattered into a fan shape, surrounding the southern end of Itsukushima, with the Murakami Navy closest to Long Tao's passenger ship, and the other three on either side.

Four more sampans were lowered on the four large ships, and the people on the sampans were placed on the side of the passenger ship, and the crane ordered the people to lower the rope ladder, and the people on the sampan climbed onto the passenger ship in turn and divided into two sides on the deck.

In addition to bringing back Eichi and Tongyasu, Murakami Takeshi also brought two fierce pirates, plus three people including Tsuru, and there were eight people on Murakami's side.

The three sailors on the opposite side came up with seven people according to the agreement, including the leaders of the three families, including three people who are full of salt, two each of Awaji and Fenggo, it seems that the three families have already agreed to let the salt full take one more share, but whether you can get it depends on the results of the competition.

The two pirates vacated a large part of the deck and stood relatively still, while Long Tao stood behind the Murakami side, not far from the crane.

Murakami Takeyoshi spoke: "These goods are just divided into ten parts, Xiao Liu, you go and mark three of them as the Murakami family." ”

A young pirate answered and walked towards the cargo.

"A few of the leaders have no opinion, right?" Takeshi Murakami asked.

"Nope." Miyamoto replied: "According to the agreement, those three shares should belong to the Murakami family." ”

Ataka and Wakabayashi also nodded in agreement.

Several people already regarded a boatload of pottery as something in their pockets, and they didn't take Long Tao and the others seriously at all.

"What? Don't want to live anymore? I don't care about you! Koroku over there shouted at the three Ruyoshi who were in front of Hagiyaki.

Long Tao beckoned: "Liuji, come here, come to my side." ”

The three of them glared at Xiao Liu, and returned to Long Tao indignantly, and Xiao Liu scolded and drew the Murakami logo on the three pieces of pottery.

A group of pirates saw Long Tao smiling and fearless, a little strange, and couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

Murakami Takeshi laughed: "This kid is still a little timid, a few masters, I promised to spare his life, I don't know if you agree?" ”

An Zhai Dongkang smiled: "We only seek wealth, it doesn't matter if we kill or not." ”

Ruolin Zhenxing waved his hand and said impatiently: "Just let him go, don't be verbose, hurry up and fight!" ”

Murakami said: "Okay, according to the agreement, let's take turns to go out of the formation, and you will send people to the first formation." ”

Antaku Fuyasu smiled: "Then let me take the lead in the Awaji Water Army, Gennosuke, you go first." ”

A stout man walked out from behind Antaku, came to the open space on the deck, and looked at Murakami with a provocative expression.

Murakami Takeshi looked at the seven people around him, "It doesn't matter how you line up, you go up and do your best, if you can win a piece of goods, I will be rewarded!" ”

On Murakami's side, there are only two bows, Tongyasu and Yingqi, and Tsuru has a sailor head, and the remaining four are all sailors, while on the side of the tripartite alliance, except for the three leaders, the other four are all bows.

If it is a strong match, it is obvious that Murakami's side is at a disadvantage, and it is very likely that the whole army will be wiped out.

Xiaoliu was the first to represent Murakami and face off against Gennosuke.

Most of the pirates' weapons were katanas, some of which were equipped with short knives, but they usually used a single sword, like a crane, carrying a knife behind their backs, and very few pirates wore two swords.

Double swords are the standard configuration of samurai, one is a sword, and one is a waki, which is a short katana, also known as a small sword.

When worn, the wakicha is on the top, the sword is on the bottom, and the waist is obliquely inserted, and the hilt must be exposed, which is a symbol of the status of the samurai.

Non-samurai people, ninjas, pirates, ronin, etc., are mostly single-sworded.

Koroku's sword technique is obviously under the help of Gennosuke, and he was defeated in less than ten rendezvous, and Gennosuke, who was victorious in Yasuke Fuyasu, went to a Hagiyaki to make the mark of the Awaji Water Army.

Long Tao watched coldly from the side, letting them mess around.

In the second formation, Murakami appeared on the side of Jitai, and a bow of the salt-saturated water army on the coalition side was just about to go out, and Ataka Dongkang suddenly took the lead, and said with a smile: "I'll do this battle!" ”

It turned out that this person was cunning and cunning, firstly, in order to ensure that he could get two portions of Hagiyaki, and secondly, he was also worried that he was old and frail, and he might not be able to win the bow of the village, so he took the lead in facing the other party's sailor.

Sure enough, Ji Tai was defeated by this old guy in three or two clicks, and the Awaji Navy successfully marked the two goods.

The first to fight in the third formation was a bow of the Salt and Water Army, and Tongyasu on the other side of the village took the initiative to ask for battle.

Tongkang's full name is Laidao Tongkang, in fact, it is also Murakami's own family, there are different branches of the Murakami family, living on different islands such as Noh Island and Laijima, at this time, Bukit is in charge, it belongs to Noh Island, and Tongkang belongs to the Laidao branch.

Tsuyasu is brave and resourceful, and he is inspired by the old fox of Ataku to take the initiative to meet the bow of the opponent's ship.

And his strength is indeed good, chasing Murakami Takeshi, and after thirty rendezvous with his opponent, he really returned victoriously and won back a Hagi for the Murakami family.

Murakami's side was demoralized and elated, while the salt-saturated army was furious, because according to the normal order of the fight, their side had already lost one cargo, and at most two could only take it with them.

Mrs. Miyamoto glared at Anzhai with fiery eyes, if it weren't for this old man's greed for money and fear of war, they would have had every chance to destroy each other....

After seeing that the Murakami family sent a sailor in the fourth formation, Miyamoto hurriedly let the only remaining bow of the ship around him fight and won a while.

The fifth formation was led by the coalition forces, and Miyamoto stepped to the center of the deck with a gloomy face.

An Zhai and Wakabayashi knew that he was angry, and they wanted him to quickly take down the second cargo, and it was good to dissipate his anger, anyway, there was only one bow left on the other side, and the leader of Wakabayashi Zhenxing on their side did not appear, and neither of them spoke.

Murakami's mizumi began to tremble after he came on the field, and before he could fight, he was suppressed by Miyamoto's anger, and within two blows, Miyamoto slashed him in the shoulder and removed an arm.

"Hey, Miyamoto!" Murakami shouted: "It's just a fight, there's no need to be so heavy, right?" ”

Miyamoto said coldly: "The sword has no eyes, it is inevitable that there will be damage, they are not the first day to be pirates, right?" ”

Tsuru stepped forward to help the waterman bandage his wounds, and then came to the middle of the deck and bowed slightly to Miyamoto's husband, "Miyamoto chief, please go back, I'll play the sixth battle." ”

"Hey...... Sixth, I'm here on our side! Miyamoto sneered.

"What?!"

The pirates were shocked.

Murakami shouted, "Miyamoto, what do you mean? Do you want to cheat? What about your faith as a pirate! ”

Wakabayashi Zhenxing also shouted: "Miyamoto is in charge, this seems to be out of order, right?" ”

If Miyamoto continues with the sixth game, it will be equivalent to occupying a place in the Bungo Water Army, and Wakabayashi Zhenxing can only get the seventh share of Hagiyaki at most.

"Rules?" Miyamoto glared at him fiercely, then at Murakami, "We didn't agree that everyone could only play once, right, Murakami?" ”

Murakami Takeshi nodded angrily and said, "That's right, we didn't agree!" ”

"Do you have an opinion? Settle down. Miyamoto looked at Toyasu Yasuya again.

"No, no." This old fox has already obtained two copies anyway, so naturally he will not mix blindly again.

Among the three coalition forces, the strength of the salt is the strongest, which is why Miyamoto can occupy one more place and take two bows to get on the boat.

"Wakabayashi, be content, at least I'll leave the seventh game to you!" Miyamoto sneered.

Ruolin Zhenxing wanted to speak and stopped, and finally snorted coldly and didn't say anything more.

The three Zhongfeng Hou are the weakest, and although he can only get one, 10,000 guan is already a lot of money for a pirate, and he can indeed be content.

Murakami Buyoshi suddenly shouted: "Miyamoto! I'll let you take advantage of this loophole, but I want you to remember that this is just a fight, and if you dare to hurt my people again, I will definitely settle accounts with you salt and water army in the future! ”

"Hehe, Murakami, I'm never afraid of threats, this leader is angry, whether it hurts or not, it depends on the sword skills of your crane commander!"

After speaking, Miyamoto let out a loud shout and raised his knife to slash at the crane.

The crane dodged sideways, drew a knife and stabbed Miyamoto in the shoulder, her skills were agile, and her knife skills were above the four sailors, but compared to Miyamoto's husband, the lord of the sword, it was naturally a big difference.

Miyamoto has a violent temperament, and he is angry, and the knife is extremely fierce, and after a while, the crane is in danger.

Murakami Takeyoshi and the others saw that their palms were sweating, he himself couldn't make a move according to the agreement, and the pirates had their own rules, and it was extremely rude to destroy other people's duels, and they would be spurned by others, and he and Miyamoto's martial arts were in the middle of each other, even if he could make a move, he might not be able to rescue the crane under his knife.

Seeing that the crane had been forced to the side of the ship, and there was no way to retreat, Miyamoto didn't show any signs of sparing, and after slashing the crane's long knife away, he slashed at her shoulder.

Tsuru's heart was cold, his face turned pale, Miyamoto's knife, let alone an arm, I was afraid that even her life would be taken away.

At the last moment of his life, Crane couldn't help but look at Long Tao, only to see this handsome and dashing man smiling at her, that indifferent smile was still so charming, so hated and loved.

The crane smiled miserably and closed his eyes to die.

Miyamoto's knife slashed down without pause, and many people couldn't help but turn their faces away, and couldn't bear to see that bloody scene happen to a young girl.

"Khooth!"

A crisp chirp.

Miyamoto's knife was fixed in mid-air, less than a foot from Tsuru's shoulder.

Crane opened his eyes, only to see that Long Tao had come to her at some point, and his two fingers caught Miyamoto's sharp blade, making it difficult for him to fall in the slightest.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Long Tao smiled at the crane, and with a force of two fingers, Miyamoto's long knife was never broken.

"Do you like to take off people's shoulders so much?" Long Tao clamped the half-truncated blade and waved his hand to slash Miyamoto's shoulder.

This time it was swift and unmatched, Miyamoto was shocked, and he reacted quickly, and immediately fell backwards.

Fortunately, Long Tao's broken blade was not long enough, and he only cut a bone-deep cut on his shoulder to avoid the catastrophe of the broken arm.

After Miyamoto fell, he rolled and fled back to the coalition formation, and hurriedly had his wounds bandaged.

Long Tao didn't continue to pursue him, strolled to the center of the deck, looked at the pirates with shocked faces, and said with a smile: "You guys have painted and painted on my cargo, have you had enough?" Now it's your turn to play next! ”
