Chapter 13: Sailing is not easy
Early in the morning, Bacchus, who had not slept all night, pushed open the door, stretched his waist in the face of the rising sun, and moved his limbs slightly.
He was accustomed to exercising his mental strength at night, and he did not have any fatigue.
When I went downstairs to wash, I found that there was already movement in the kitchen, and several rescued girls were busy making breakfast, with smiles on their faces, thinking that they were in a good mood.
There was a large long table in the dining room, and the girls said that they would wait for Bacchus to finish eating, which made Bacchus finish in a hurry, and he was a little unaccustomed to it.
As for the girls' work arrangement, it was up to Emilia to decide, and he didn't want to mix.
After breakfast, Bacchus followed Emilia's instructions, put away the sails, and removed the large canvas with the logo on it.
Two older girls brought buckets of paint from the utility room, and Carina ran over with a paintbrush that she had found nowhere.
"I, I'm going to draw a flag, a picture of nine snakes."
Emilia tapped Lori's head gently, "You use a brush to draw this, and you can't draw a pirate flag." ”
Little Lori pouted, didn't spill, had to come to Bacchus, and the two squatted aside to watch the others busy.
The original blue flag was painted white with some grass and rattan patterns on it, and then a large golden crown was painted in the middle. The whole pattern is simple and a little extravagant.
"This is a pattern that I have modeled on a certain national symbol, which should be able to bluff people, at least the navy will never intercept us."
"Not bad." Bacchus.
"Beautiful." Galina.
Emilia gave them a blank look, got up and called the girls, "Girls, move, come as we have agreed." ”
"Yes, Sister Emilia."
The girls dispersed with cheers, fetched water from the sea, first cleaned the deck, some with mops, some with rags, with a clear division of labor.
This ship is about 50 meters long, it is a medium-sized ship, and the previous owner built it more carefully than ordinary pirate ships for the sake of comfort.
Cleaned the wooden decks at the bow and stern, especially the bloodstains from yesterday's Bacchus killing the trafficker's crew with a cool gun.
The girls began to clean the room in batches and threw away all the items left behind by some of the traffickers. The captain's room on the third floor, the cadre's bedroom and conference room on the second floor.
On the first floor, there is a kitchen, a dining room, a bathroom, a general crew bedroom, a reference room, and a utility room.
Bacchus was tasked with cleaning the bottom of the ship's hold, which was supposed to store fresh water, food, and other supplies, but was converted into a dungeon.
Destroy the cell, collect space, and as for sanitation and cleaning, there are girls coming.
After spending half a day cleaning up the ship, Bacchus looked at the clean and bright cabin and had to sigh that it would be good to have a female crew.
Luncheon and the announcement of the ship's renaming of the Carina, made Lori, who drank the juice, laugh out loud.
Set sail again in the afternoon, the Carina headed for the Kingdom of Frut under the command of Emilia.
Two parasols were erected on the deck, and a table was placed in the middle with juices and pastries. There are two reclining chairs on the left and right, one big and one small, wearing sunglasses and drinking juice.
These two people are naturally Bacchus and Gallina, the captain and deputy captain, and the beautiful name is the ship for a long time.
Bacchus talked nonsense to Lori, and Lori told Emilia that this was tradition.
Emilia didn't bother to pay attention to the two of them, threw Bacchus a newspaper and went to the cabin, where the girl talked about things from time to time, and was mysterious.
"Uncle, I want to see it too."
"Do you understand?"
"Don't underestimate people, I'm four years old."
Bacchus handed the fashion entertainment page to Gallina, and looked at the political affairs and important news for herself.
Pirate Nova Kidd destroys three warships
The Flame Tank Pirates have landed in the Kingdom of York
Admiral Tina was promoted to Commodore General
The G8 branch of the Navy cleared the surrounding pirates
The Tulip Kingdom was kicked out of the World Government member countries, and it is suspected that the revolutionary army has infiltrated it.
The Four Emperors held a tea party
Bacchus casually read the headlines and threw the newspaper on the table, "By the way, did you go to school, Galina?" ”
"Of course, I went to kindergarten, but my mother taught me how to read."
Look at your pride, wow, kindergarten, well, Bacchus, the orphan has never read at all, and his literacy was learned from some old fishermen in Rogue Town.
Before he crossed over, Bacchus always thought that there were no schools in the pirate world, but in fact, there were them, but there were not many of them, and they were generally available on large islands.
"Hurry up, kindergarten kids, the weather is about to change." In Bacchus's telekinesis, the moisture in the air increased greatly, and the air pressure was also a little abnormal.
Carina hurriedly jumped out of the recliner and ran into the cabin to inform her mother, she trusted Bacchus very much.
By the time Emilia ran to the deck, the sky was already overcast, "It looks like a storm is coming, Bacchus puts the sails away, and you take the helm." ”
Bacchus climbed up the mast and put away the sails, and then came to the driver's seat to stand by, and if he found a whirlpool on the sea, he had to immediately raise the sail and turn.
The pouring rain was coming, the ship shook violently with the waves, and Bacchus was the first to see the horrors of the great voyage.
Mental power always probes around to prevent accidents. Luckily, there were no whirlpools, no sea kings, and no ship wrecks.
The course must be deviated, and in the face of nature, the ocean-going ship can only go with the current, as long as it does not capsize, it will blow wherever it is.
The storm raged for a full hour before the Carina saw the light again, but the waves were still a bit heavy, but at least it was much safer.
Bacchus scanned the entire ship with telekinesis, and there was no damage, except for the flowers and plants planted on the middle lawn that were uprooted by blowing. The woman in the cabin was not a big problem, only one girl had a swollen head.
When the waves were no longer raging, Carina ran to the deck and was relieved to see that Bacchus was not injured.
"Bacchus, go take a shower." Emilia shouted as she stood in the hatch.
Bacchus touched Gallina's head, went to the second floor to take a shower and change clothes, and when he reached the deck, the sails had been lowered and Emilia was at the helm adjusting the direction.
"Luckily, we didn't get blown very far, and one day we will be on Fruit Island."
"To be honest, I'm still not used to this kind of sailing." Bacchus lit a cigarette and sat on the railing.
"It's good, I've had worse weather before, the storm passed, and the voyage didn't come with a big hailstorm after a while, and then there was a blizzard." Emilia shrugged.
"That's why I don't like being a pirate."
"Because the traveler is on a cruise?"
"Hahaha......" Bacchus laughed heartily, didn't reply, ran to the utility room, took out two fishing rods and called the little Lori, and went to the deck to fish together.
"Uncle, aren't you afraid that I will be caught by a big fish?"
"Don't be afraid, uncle is a great swimmer."
……
The next time, the weather was very good, the wind was beautiful, but the sudden thunder in the middle of the night made the girls on the boat tremble.
Fortunately, there was only thunder and no torrential rain, and Bacchus saw thunder falling from time to time on the sea far away, and he didn't know which Taoist friend was crossing.
The Carina moved forward steadily, and there were more ships on the sea, all of them merchant ships, all of which came out of Fruit Island.
"Bacchus, please be vigilant, this sea area must be full of pirates."
Bacchus nodded, and from time to time he used his telekinesis to scan the surface of the sea from time to time as soon as they encountered the first merchant ship.
More than an hour later, Bacchus, who was sitting reading a newspaper, stood up.
"Tsk, there are really people who come to send money."
When I came to the deck, I couldn't cut it yet, and I didn't want to go into the water today, so I would wait for them to get closer.
"Uncle, are there pirates?"
"Kid, why are you so excited? It's none of your business. ”
"I'm going to shoot." Carina raised her spear with smug hands.
Bacchus was speechless, it must have been Emilia's who taught you, right? I'm not afraid to go off the rails.
"Let's go back, if the pirates open fire, I won't necessarily bother to come over."
"Okay." The little girl never refuted the adults in big things, and after running into the cabin, she hid behind the window of the conference room on the second floor and watched secretly.
The Carina did not stop and continued to maintain its speed.
When the pirate ship was about a kilometer away, the main gun fired a tentative shot, and it hit the sea surface 100 meters away from the Gallina, causing a large wave of spray.
Bacchus was unmoved, and the pirate ship could hit with one of the main guns in the bow, and it would be nice if the side guns could have an effective range of 500 meters.
That is, the firepower of naval warships is fierce, especially the general-level, the bow triple main gun, whether it is range or power, it is not comparable to pirate ships.
The pirate ship over there saw that the Carina did not respond, and only knew that it had sailed away, and the pirates shouted excitedly, and the captain ordered to move forward at full speed and catch up with the Carina.
In fact, there are also guns on the Gallina, but no one operates them.
Bacchus looked at the pirate ship that had already entered the range of the slash, still looking calmly, unless they fired at close range, otherwise he was waiting for them to get closer.
500 meters
300 meters
100 meters
The pirates had already shouted to stop the ship and raised their guns and fired a few shots.
Bacchus spat out a smoke ring, and the telekinetic shockwave activated, and the invisible spiritual power swept over the pirate ship.
One by one, the pirates fell to the ground silently, and except for a few who fainted, the other people of low strength had lost their lives.
"That's it."
Little Lori, who was hiding on the second floor and peeking out, blinked, and scratched her hair irritably, "It's like this again, ask Bacchus if you don't say it, my mother won't tell me even if she knows, hmph, I will learn it in the future." Isn't it just staring? Look at me. ”
