Chapter 300: Arriving in the Vortex Country
Hearing this, the pirates were like being pardoned, and wherever they still had the idea of fighting, they ran to the bow of the ship and jumped down.
Although their pirate ship has been destroyed, as pirates, their water nature is not bad, and there is still a supply point for them in this sea, even if they jump into the sea, they will not be completely lifeless.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
With the sound of falling water, the pirates disappeared from the deck one by one, like dumplings in a pot.
Soon, by the time all the pirates had left, all the crew members breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you still doing in a daze! Set sail and get out of here as soon as possible! The captain did not dare to stop, and immediately urged the crowd again.
After a fight just now, they were immediately urged again, and everyone was inevitably a little unhappy in their hearts, but they also understood the captain's worries, this is not a place where they can rest at will.
Immediately, everyone dragged their tired bodies and once again steered the ship towards the mainland of the Vortex Country.
Of course, not all of them were responsible for sailing, and some were responsible for cleaning the decks and dealing with the wounded.
After some counting, they killed five crew members and wounded more than twenty.
It's frustrating, but this is the ninja world.
It is not easy for ordinary people to live a stable life.
If it weren't for the escort of Maitkai's team, I'm afraid none of them would have survived.
Now only five have died, which is already considered lucky.
On the following trip, the merchant ship encountered pirates twice.
However, the scale of the pirates encountered in the next two encounters was not as large as the previous one, and their strength was much worse, and they did not even have the ability to board the ship to engage in broadside combat, so they were directly blocked out, and the losses to the merchant ships were reduced to a minimum.
All in all, the group was in danger.
Finally, after another half a day at sea, they finally arrived at the central island where the country of the original vortex was located.
Before the ship could come to a stable landing, the captain bowed excitedly to several ninjas in thanks.
"Thank you very much, if it weren't for your escort, I'm afraid our trip would be dangerous!"
"It's okay...... No problem......"
Maitkai waved his hand, still looking weak.
Although he had always looked down on this one before, after seeing the other party's battle, the captain no longer dared to underestimate him.
He then asked with a shy face: "If you don't have any other tasks, I want to ask you to escort you when I return home, I wonder what Maitkai Shangnin thinks?" ”
"Return? Whoa—"
Maitkai was about to inquire in detail, when he suddenly felt a tumult in his belly, and hurriedly rushed to the side of the boat and vomited.
Seeing this, Rokuzawa and the captain couldn't help but shake their heads.
A ninja who is so powerful on the battlefield can be so embarrassed because of seasickness, such a contrast is really embarrassing.
At this moment, the ship finally came to a halt.
didn't have the heart to stay here and waste time, Liuze immediately waved his hand to the group.
"It's time for me to get off the boat, see you soon!"
"See you soon!"
Maitkai turned around and waved at him with difficulty.
"Goodbye!"
Immediately, under the watchful eyes of the group, Rokuzawa jumped off the deck, and by the time he landed again, he was already on the dock.
Scanning the surroundings, the entire dock was also full of people, looking orderly, and there was no chaos and disorder as he imagined.
"It seems that I still underestimate this 'land of lawlessness'!" Rokuzawa shook his head.
At the beginning, when he heard that this was a 'lawless place', he subconsciously thought that this was a chaotic place of burning, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.
He even thought that the merchant ship he was on came here to do business, purely to kill himself and send sheep into the tiger's mouth.
But now that he thought about it, he understood everything again.
If there is no order at all here, then this place will only become a ghost full of corpses.
Just like the Land of Rain, which was used as a battlefield by the Three Kingdoms of Fire, Earth and Wind, no matter how chaotic the situation is, there is still a certain order after all, and only when order exists, ordinary people can survive in that kind of area.
If even the most basic order does not exist, it is no different from a vast Black Forest.
You must know that in the Black Forest, there are only the rules of the jungle, and ordinary people cannot survive here at all, they can only be the objects of killing and exploitation.
They will do everything they can to escape.
When ordinary people disappear, the predators, pirates, robbers and others on the next level can only 'starve to death' here.
Then one by one, one by one, perishes, until eventually the top predators will be 'starved to death' here.
So, when everyone still wants to live here, they have to maintain a certain order.
Perhaps, compared to other countries, the order here is very chaotic, bandits are everywhere, and bandits are abundant, but it will not completely become a hell on earth where even ordinary people cannot survive.
If you have to describe it, the 'lawless land' here should refer to the chaotic area where the ruling structure of the original vortex country has been destroyed, there is no unified administrative body, and the rest of the people are in their own way.
Thinking about everything, Liuze didn't delay any longer, and after a little inquiry, he found an old boatman.
I am not familiar with the place here, and if I want to find the entrance to the 'Wet Bone Forest', I need the help of the locals.
"Old Boatman, how much do you know about the waters of this Vortex Country?" He asked the old man tentatively.
It was an old man over sixty years old, with a white beard and thick calluses on his hands, and he looked like he often did rough work.
"Familiar!"
The old man glanced at him, took another puff of dry smoke, and said unhurriedly: "I learned to row with my father at the age of ten, and I was able to go to sea alone at the age of fifteen. ”
"That's good!"
Rokuzawa nodded and said with a smile: "I heard that there is a small island in the east of the country of vortex, and the island is shrouded in miasma all year round, can you take me there?" ”
"Of course, the ship will not be less than you!"
Speaking of this, he immediately took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket, and flipped it lightly, and immediately made a swishing sound.
However, seeing his actions, the old man couldn't help but show the slightest joy, but his face was full of nervousness, and he pushed Liuze's hand with the money into his arms.
"Quick, put your money away!"
"Uh-"
Rokuzawa was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood the reason.
Because he had felt the unkind stares cast from all around him.
"Oh no, it's too late!"
Feeling the hostility around him, the old man was shocked, and hurriedly pulled Rokuzawa onto his boat, and quickly rowed his oars to sail the boat out of the dock.
Many people around who had just made up their minds and were not ready to make a move were stunned when they saw it, and when they reacted, the old man's boat had rowed out five or six meters like an arrow from the string.
