On Heard Island, most of the people come and go to replenish supplies, exchange supplies, or come here to indulge and find happy scattered pirates.

The two forces on the island belong to Mahamadou and Safra, who have the greatest interests.

Mahamadou's general in Heard Island is called Ed Harold.

He had fifteen ships under his command, the largest of which had more than 200 sailors and 8 cannons; The smallest ship was also equipped with a cannon and 20 sailors; The combined number of crew members is almost 1,500 people;

Safra's commander on Heard Island was called Trist Reddy, and he had about the same number of ships and sailors as Eddard.

These two forces, once dispatched, would be enough to suppress all the scattered pirates around Heard Island.

After all.

Duge's original Smiling Angel had a pitiful crew of only 12 people, which was not even comparable to the configuration of the smallest warship under Ed's command.

And the merchant ships of the Duffy family and the ships of the captured navy stationed in Hong Kong are only about 50 people, which belongs to a small force that cannot be smaller.

Even if Dug's pirate group expanded to 350 people in one day, he basically had nothing left on his side when he clashed head-on with Ed's pirate group and fired a salvo from the opposite side.

But after a day of fighting, all the enemies who fought against the Sea Fish Pirates were in full condition, but on their side, except for a few unlucky ones who fell overboard, they were unscathed.

Coupled with the witch's prophecy, the morale of the Sea Fish Pirates is almost at its peak, and they believe that they are blessed by the god of the sea, and under the leadership of Paul, they can roam the seas and be invincible.

……

When Du Ge kidnapped He Ya.

Ed and Trist's fleet confronts Antonio.

Heard Island is an important stronghold between the East and South China Seas, vital to the supply of many pirates, and an economic pillar for Mahamadu and Safra, so it must not fall into the hands of the navy.

They were waiting for reinforcements from Mahamadhoo and Safra to attack Antonio's navy from behind.

The inside should be combined with the outside, and finally the blockade of Heard Island was lifted.

So.

Even if Ed knew that Witch Hoya had been kidnapped, he wouldn't be able to take the time to deal with Dug.

But.

He didn't take it to heart either.

After all

Antonio blocked the route, and the idiot who robbed the witch couldn't run if he wanted to.

And he believed that the scattered pirates on Heard Island would send the witch back for him, but when information about the Sea Fish Pirate Group was sent to Ed, he was finally dumbfounded.

……

"Fish Age?"

"Paul turned out to be a witch too, divining for everyone who came to him."

"Mahamadu coerced He Ya and secretly collected the destiny chart......"

……

"Damn Paul, how dare he spread the word about Mahamadui, Mahamadou knew about it and would have killed me." Under the moonlight, Ed's eyes were bloodshot and he roared angrily on the deck, and he came back to his senses and said to the first mate, "Brown, you take five ships tomorrow and go and kill Paul and his damn pirate group of Sea Fish, and get the witch back, and I want everyone to know that the Sea Fish will not give them any luck, but will only bring them bad luck." ”

"Captain, if I take five ships, Antonio will definitely take the opportunity to attack." First mate Brown said, "We have a greater responsibility for losing Heard Island. ”

"So what do you say you should do? We're fighting here and watching that guy do the rain behind us? Ed said coldly.

"Captain, Witch Hoya is tasked with helping Mahamadou find the chart of fate." The first mate was silent for a moment, and then said, "Now, all the clues about the Seagod Scepter have leaked out, and there is no need for the witch to keep it. ”

"What do you want to say?" Ed asked.

"As far as I know, Paul's bounty is already 80,000 gold, and if we add another 20,000 gold to him, someone will definitely take the risk to help us kill Paul and the witch. The bounty hunter called the Dark Hand should have taken an interest in Paul. The first mate shrugged his shoulders and said, "As for Mahamadou's side, it has already happened, we are not on the island at the time, he will not be angry with us because of this!" ”

"That's all I can do." Ed took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down, he looked at the first mate and ordered, "Find someone to return to Heard Island overnight and issue a bounty for Paul." Mobilize all the pirate ships of Heard Island and take part in the battle with Antonio. I have a hunch that Antonio is about to launch a general offensive in the next two days, and we have to hold out until reinforcements come. ”

……

Next.

Ed's bounty against Paul and the mobilization order against the pirates were issued at the same time.

The pirates of the Fish Age, who were touched by Duge, experienced the protection of the goddess of luck of Paul's pirate group, and were indifferent to the bounty about Paul.

However, they enthusiastically joined the team against Antonio.

These people came to Heard Island to find clues to the Poseidon Scepter, and now they have a new mission - to find Selma and make a deal with her.

Naturally, I am not willing to be trapped here all the time.

Then, breaking through Antonio's blockade becomes inevitable.

Every pirate who has changed their name is convinced that if they change their name, Lady Luck will accompany them.

The pirates, who had changed their names but had not been touched by Duge, happily discussed how to take Paul's head in exchange for a bounty.

After all.

Compared to the illusory chart of fate and Selma, Paul's head was really worth 100,000 gold coins, and it was placed there, looking like it was at his fingertips.

They believe that Paul's luck was brought about by the fish of the sea.

Nowadays, everyone has the name of the sea fish, so the luck is evenly divided.

This time.

It depends on whose shells are more accurate and whose knives are sharper.

……

Safra's Admiral Trist, who confronts Antonio's navy on the other end of the route, is also aware of what is happening on the island of Hurd.

But.

He wasn't interested in witches and happy Paul things.

After the pirates on Heard Island are released, the clues to the Poseidon Scepter will become an open secret, and Suffra only needs to offer a bounty on the Destiny Chart, with or without witches.

As for the chart in Mahamadou's hand, it was something that Safra had to worry about.

Maybe.

The King of the Seas didn't want the Poseidon Scepter to pop up.

After the fall of the god of the sea, the whole ocean is the world of the king of the four seas, who wants to have a new sea god holding the god of the sea scepter on his head?

In Trist's opinion, Selma's heavy search for a child is more urgent.

After all.

The wealth that Selma has collected over the years is enough to create a new Sea King, and the man who gets Selma's wealth will really threaten the status of the King of the Four Seas.

……

To be exact.

It was Dugg who started the war.

Ed was waiting for Mahamadou's reinforcements, waiting for the pirates behind him to assemble, while Antonio was waiting for Admiral Micaro's orders and the movements of Mahamadou and Safra.

The encirclement and suppression of the navy will generally be coordinated by other departments of the navy.

Otherwise.

Once he gives the order to attack, he is attacked from behind by Mahamadou's men, and it is easy to turn an active attack into a passive two-sided attack......

None of the generals allowed such a thing to happen.

Outcome.

When the two sides confronted each other, Duge's five pirate ships, singing and dancing into their central seas, broke into their central sea with no one in sight.

On the deck of every ship, a group of seafarers in pink skirts are dancing strangely and unexpectedly......

The pink skull flag fluttered in the wind, as if mocking the opposing sides.

On the constantly adjusting sails, a few lines are written in bold letters:

……

"Why don't we dance together?"

"There are 100,000 gold coins moving here"

"You can see me, but you will never be able to catch me."

"Antonio's ass is red......"

"In the great age of fish, Lady Luck sheltered everyone who had a fish in their name."
