Donner slept on the dilapidated wooden bed in a daze, and vaguely heard the wooden door being pushed open.

He struggled to open his eyes and saw Anna walking in with a wooden plate.

"What time is it?" Donner sat up, rubbing his face. I didn't sleep all night at Sea Cliff last night, and I was mentally exhausted.

"The sun is about to set over the sea. Anna stood in the room with a wooden tray of bread and replied in a gentle voice, "You slept all day today, and I didn't wake you up at noon when I saw you still asleep." ”

"You haven't eaten all day today, you're hungry. Anna walked over to Donner and placed the wooden plate on the small wooden table next to him.

"Thank you, Miss Anna. ”

Anna pondered for a while, then asked timidly, "Brother Donner, I heard that Ed jumped into the sea yesterday. ”

Donner nodded, let out a long sigh, and said, "Yes, dead, there is no more Ed in the world." ”

"May the Goddess bless!" Anna drew a triangle on her chest. The Donner knew that this was a prayer gesture of the Holy See.

After Anna finished praying, she squatted slightly, lifted the corner of her skirt and said, "Brother Donner, I'll go first." ”

Donner bowed his head slightly and said yes.

The wooden door creaked shut, and Donner picked up the bread on the wooden plate and ate it.

Golden bread had always been the best food for slaves, but at this moment it was tasteless in Donner's mouth.

After swallowing the bread with difficulty, Donner went to Matthew and Mike's house.

The rooms on Crescent Island weren't enough for everyone to own a house, so the pirates lived together in pairs.

Matthew and Mike's room was not closed, and when Donner walked in, they were having dinner too.

When Mike and Matthew saw Donner coming, they stood up and asked, "Donner, have you eaten?"

Donner nodded to indicate that he had eaten, and he found a random wooden pier to sit with Matthew.

"When is the next time the pirate ship will go to sea?" asked Donner, after a moment's thought.

McGonagall took a bite of the steamed bun and said vaguely, "Three days later!"

"It's almost Gods' Day, and I heard Captain Willy say that they want to take some of the goods they have recently grabbed to the south of Gran Island to sell, and they still need to buy some food and things back. ”

This Gran Island, Downer had heard of, was a large island more than 300 miles south of Crescent Island, where pirates gathered.

In the coastal area of the eastern continent of Shengguang, there are countless islands, and I don't know how many islands can hide pirates. Just talking about the islands around Gran Island, large and small, I have heard that there are dozens of them.

The largest island, Gran Island, is occupied by several powerful pirates in the surrounding area, who have joined forces to make Gran Island a habitat and paradise for pirates.

The goods that the pirates at sea snatched could not be sold on the mainland, so they would keep the goods they needed, and if they didn't need them, they would take them to Gran Island to sell, and then exchange them for silver coins, or buy what they needed.

The loot looted by the pirates on the island of Gran would be bought at very low prices by merchants from the mainland, who would then bring in the pirates' food and iron tools from the mainland and sell them at high prices.

Therefore, the island is not only a paradise for pirates, but also a sacred paradise for maritime merchants, because the island is filled with the smell of silver coins.

These maritime merchants are no different from pirates, most of them are attached to nobles, or they are nobles themselves, they are merchants when they go ashore, and they are pirates when they go to sea.

They will also loot merchant ships that are less powerful than themselves, or rob some weak pirate ships, after all, a business without capital is more profitable than anything else.

Maritime merchants traveled between the sea and the mainland, intertwined with countless pirates, making Gran a source of evil on the sea.

The rules on the sea are actually no different from the rules under the sea, they are all big fish eat small shrimp, small shrimp eat mud, the strong survive, and the weak perish.

The flower of sin is watered with blood in order to bear fruit.

Therefore, on the rough sea, all kinds of big fish eating small fish are staged every day, and killing happens all the time.

After hearing Mike say that the pirate group would go to sea again in three days, Donner pondered for a moment and said, "Well, I'll go to sea with you this time." ”

Matthew and Mike were surprised: "You go to sea with us?"

Donner nodded, originally Reagan and Cood died, and he was only sad for a moment in his heart, because he knew that it was his fate as a pirate.

But now that Ed is dead again, his pleading and violent reaction make Donner think a lot.

This group of slaves was brought to Crescent Island by him, and he originally thought that as long as he slowly integrated into the pirates, he could live in peace, at least better than the slaves, at least more freely.

But now he realizes that he was so wrong, being a pirate on Crescent Island is no different from being a slave in the mines, the mine owner doesn't treat people as human beings, and the pirate leader doesn't take human life seriously.

Now Donner understands that in this world, there are many things that he will never have if he does not fight for them, such as freedom, such as life.

Right now, his only reliance was on the slaves, who had always followed him as their leader. However, since he came to Crescent Island, he has paid little attention to these slaves, allowing them to live, and even allowing them to be oppressed by pirates.

Donner thought that over time, the slaves and pirates would naturally blend together.

But he found himself too naïve, he didn't consider the feelings of the slaves, and underestimated how hateful the pirates were.

There were a lot of people who had died, all of whom had helped him in the mines, who had trusted him deeply, and Donner didn't want them to die casually.

So this time, he wants to stand with the slaves again and share the weal and woe.

"Will Captain Willie let you go to sea with us?" Matthew said his doubts, he was not stupid, he knew that the pirate captain had never let Donner go to sea, and every time he went to sea in the past, he would let Donner stay on Crescent Island.

Donner smiled, "Don't worry, they will let me go to sea with you, and they will invite me to go." ”

Matthew and Mike looked at each other, they really didn't know where Donner's self-confidence came from.

Donner is so confident, of course he is sure in his heart.

Since the pirate group will take the goods to Gran Island to sell in order to celebrate Heian Day and Nativity, then Vic, the accountant of Crescent Island, will inevitably go.

On Crescent Island, except for the alchemist, he and himself are literate and settle accounts.

The alchemist has a strange temper, he was originally imprisoned on Crescent Island, it would be good to let him stay on the island in peace, and it was impossible for him to keep accounts and buy and sell goods for the pirates.

In the past, every time he went to sea to sell stolen goods on Gran Island, Captain Willy had to take Vic with him, otherwise the pirates would be killed by the merchants of Gran Island.

So Donner wants to go, as long as Vic can't go.

Of course, Donner didn't think about killing Vic, and it was too risky to kill Vic. However, it's still okay to make Vic sick for a few days with a little trick and not be able to get out of bed.
