The crowd poured towards Adela and Guina like a tide of insects, each with a cruel and bloodthirsty expression on their faces, and the knives in their hands reflected a cold light.

Guina was not afraid with the sword in her hand, and even if she was already a fourth-level swordsman, she could not do much in the face of this kind of group attack, but since Lear had entrusted Adela to her safety, there would be no room to back down.

Only death.

Adela pressed the hilt of her sword.

"I thought a legendary pirate would be any different from a normal thief, and that seems to be the case now. ”

A few cold blades stopped above her head, and the breeze blew, shedding strands of hair.

"Confess your last words, and then I can let you choose a decent way to die. ”

Peterley waved his hand, and the pirates surrounding Adela took two steps back, but the sharp point of the knife was still pointed at her heart and back.

"We have come with sincerity, wishing to be friends with you, out of admiration for your prestige, for Mr. Jeremy has told me that even as a pirate, your virtues are worthy of praise. ”

"Shut up!"

Adela could finish his sentence when he was rudely interrupted by Peterley.

"If it weren't for you, how would our brother be like this? Your sincerity is to separate our brotherhood and attack my woman again? If so, then I really want to thank you. ”

Peterley began to turn the ring in his hand.

"Mr. Jeremy is an outstanding talent, he has the power to change the pattern of the seas in his field, and you, as his elder brother, and he has been by your side for more than ten years, has made him an inch, and he has achieved such amazing achievements in just a few months after joining our lordship, is the responsibility to you or us?"

After a slight pause to organize her words, Adela continued: "As for Miss Annabelle, in this sea of the strong and strong, you don't think that everyone is a gentle lamb, do you? ”

"Even if this weak man is attached to me, and is also the daughter of the deaf Neris?"

The chill in Peterley's eyes grew.

"Yes. In the eyes of our lords, there is only the strong and the weak, and the weak have no name. ”

Adela was unafraid.

"What's your lord's name?"

Peterley asked again.

"Lear. ”

When the name is spoken, Adela speaks with undisguised pride and pride.

"Nobody, what gives you the confidence to come and negotiate a deal with me?"

Peterley's tone was one of disdain.

"With all due respect, when you went to sea in a wrecked fishing boat sixteen years ago, no one knew you, and I am afraid that you never imagined that you would become a legend one day. ”

After hearing this, there was an eerie silence in the room, Peterley did not speak, and Adela did not speak, but her gaze never took off the other's eyes from beginning to end.

And the pirate leader felt his incomprehensible strength in it.

At this moment, Annabelle suddenly leaned into Peterley's ear and whispered a few words, and the latter did not look at her, but the surprise in his eyes flashed.

"I'll give you five minutes to explain the benefits you can bring me, and if your answer satisfies me, I can consider putting you to work for me, or I'll send your body back and take it upon myself to level your island. ”

Peterley lazily withdrew his right arm that was holding his chin, but then switched sides and continued to recline.

"If that's the case, then you can do it, because I'm not here to talk to you about effectiveness at all, I'm going to talk about cooperation. And from my personal point of view, you're a not-so-successful leader. ”

With that, Adela closed her eyes, looking like she was waiting for death quietly, and the sea breeze blew her hair through the pillars.

The face is serene.

"You think I won't dare kill you?"

Peterley sat up straight and leaned forward slightly, but did not turn the ring in his hand.

"Of course you dare, and killing me would be as easy for you as stepping on an ant, but I'd be sorry if that were. ”

Adela opened her eyes.

"Hahahaha, I thought you were really not afraid of death, it turned out that it was just a bluff, come and kill them!"

After a few laughs, Peterley suddenly became furious, and he felt that he was being teased.

"You're wrong. ”

Adela just said lightly.

Behind her, Guina's blade was already in contact with the pirate, and the fighting spirit of the fourth-level swordsman blew the corners of her clothes, and it wasn't until Peterley's eyes looked at her again that she said the next words.

"I'm just sorry for you, it's not a big deal that I'm dead, and you're missing out on an ally who can walk side by side with you to a higher level.

And when I die, the vast empire you built will also collapse in the flames of vengeance, and although my lord is not yet strong, one day all the people of the world will look up to his light.

And I would be honored to have my life as the cornerstone of his rise. ”

By the time she said this, Guina's form was already in jeopardy, and without Peterly giving the order to stop, the pirates pounced on her like bloodthirsty hyenas.

A few bloody mouths, red clothes like a dream.

"Are you threatening me?"

Peterley stood up from his seat with a cold face, no one had dared to speak to him so arrogantly in many years since he had become a legendary pirate.

You can think so, but I prefer to call it advice to you. ”

Adela said righteously.

"Do you know what price you will pay for your hubris?"

He walked down the stairs.

"We're paying now, just death, and no more. ”

Adela was not afraid.

Peterly came to Adela, the shadow of the huge height difference obscuring her face completely, and the pirates stopped what they were doing.

Eleven bloody wounds on Guina's body!

He looked down at Adela's face, and the huge coercion carried by the ninth-level knight was unleashed unscrupulously, his robes were windless, and the silver armor was even more gargling.

The strong wind whipped Adra's face in pain, but instead of casting any protective spells, she stubbornly looked up and looked at Peterley.

Long.

"Show your sincerity. I'll just give you one chance. ”

Peterley's majestic voice sounded again, and the silver armor returned to its place, and the momentum continued.

However, Adela turned to heal Guina before turning back to face him, her hand flashing with light, and a piece of sulphur rough appeared in her hand.

"I'm sure there will be no shortage of high-level warlocks under your command who will tell you the value of this thing. ”

She handed the rough to Peterley, who didn't even look at it, but Annabelle came up and took the ore.

"If that's all there is to it, I'll get it myself. ”

Obviously, just a piece of rough or even an entire vein is not enough to impress Peterley, as Adela just said, in this sea of the strong, as long as you have the power, then you can take everything you want.

"If you don't mind moving a little, I'll show you even more sincerity in the harbor. ”

Any cooperation is based on equal power between the two sides, and Adela naturally understands that if there is no matching force after revealing his wealth, then all that remains is killing and plundering.

Peterley led the way.

An hour later, in the Deep Blue Harbor, Ivo urgently called out for the ship that had been anchored and was about to return home.

Adela appeared in the harbor following Peterley.

"Are you sure it's right here? Wait a minute, it might cause an unnecessary commotion. ”

Adela made a sincere suggestion to Peterley.

"Let's get started, you just have to worry about how to save your life if I am not satisfied with the sincerity you give. ”

Peterley replied disdainfully, more than ten years after his debut, even if he fought with the sea dragon of the fish-man clan, he had nothing to fear.

"Then as you wish. ”

A blazing fireball rose from Adra's hand, the signal she and Ivo had agreed upon, and when the fireball exploded at its highest altitude, the three warships began to head towards the harbor at full speed.

As the warships approached the harbor for a thousand meters, their bows slowly turned around and lined up in a straight line.

Eighteen gun ports, each ship spaced 100 meters apart.

"Target the cliff on the left side of the port, ignition!"

Ivo gave the order to attack.
