Chapter 16: The Widow's Ambition
Waves roll around the Golden Isle.
Five naval warships with seagull sails entered the undercurrent of the Golden Island.
"Major Smoker, is this the island where the gold is buried in Unan? It's not that the pirates are all gathered, what's going on? Something wrong with intelligence? ”
Dai Siqi looked at the peaceful island in front of him and felt a little strange.
According to the intelligence, there should be a lot of pirates here, but the Golden Island in front of you is completely empty, and not even a pirate ship can be seen.
This is somewhat unusual.
Could it be that the information is wrong?
"The information is from CP1, it shouldn't be wrong, the pirates should be hiding, or in the island."
"Let's go around the whole island first, and then split up."
Smoker put down his binoculars and ordered.
The five warships scattered, and at this moment, something unexpected happened, and I saw a black and oppressive ship suddenly appear on both sides of the Golden Island in front of me.
Yes, it was an army of pirates that looked like they were vast, and the ships had pirate flags on top of their masts.
"It's a pirate! That's a lot! ”
"Oh no, they're trying to surround us."
"Shoot now!"
Seeing this, the navy couldn't help but panic, and they were all at a loss.
Boom Boom Boom ......
A swarthy cannon began to attack.
But there were too many pirates, and a large area of Wuyang was attacking five naval warships, and the navy was obviously inferior in numbers, and the pirates were in a tailwind relationship, so their ships quickly approached the side of the warship.
"There are so many ships, there are so many."
Dusty was horrified by the sight of so many pirate ships gathered together, she had seen them for the first time in her life.
Seeing that the pirates were surrounded, the navy warships opened fire again to drive them away, trying to drive these guys away, but unfortunately the ants ate the elephants.
"It's a trap!"
"Everyone retreats, I'll break back!"
Smoked up, Smoker flew up and attacked the leading warship in front of him with a long stuffle of gray-white smoke.
"Hahaha, smoker Smoker, I'm Klick, the captain of the Klick Pirates, can your Devil Fruit ability beat me?"
A man in gold armor appeared on the bow of the ship.
He has light purple hair and a turban tied around his head. Wearing black boots and a large cape. The glittering armor is also equipped with weapons such as shields, guns, and cannons.
Bang!
Smoker raised his ten hands and swung them down, and Klick's spears collided together, bursting into sparks.
On the other hand, the five warships of the Navy have been surrounded by pirate ships, and many pirates have begun to try to board them.
"Hold the deck, don't let them get on board!"
Dusty drew his sword and fought the vicious pirates.
Up to now, no matter how stupid people are, they can guess that the so-called Golden Island treasure is not for the pirates, or for the few navies in the East China Sea.
It's a complete trap!
。
Europe, Europe, Europe......
The afternoon sun was a little warm and pleasant, and with the call of seagulls, a seagull with a backpack dropped a newspaper in mid-air.
The newspaper that went straight down was caught by Martin, who was half-lying on a recliner.
He spread it out and saw that it was the most popular weekly newspaper in the East China Sea at present, and because of the inconvenient transportation in the East China Sea, even if the seagull was used to deliver the newspaper, the East China Sea Weekly only had one issue a week.
At the same time, it is also one of the three largest newspapers in the East China Sea, focusing on municipal affairs, pirates, and navies, and is known for its truthful reporting.
[Shocking! The navy was besieged by the Klick Pirates on Golden Island and successfully repelled the pirates]
[The biggest news of the year, Golden Island does not exist, it is a trap for pirates]
Two front-page headlines in a row simply filled the front page of the newspaper.
"There is still this kind of character in the East China Sea now, which is ruthless enough."
Martin was no surprise.
The navy's strength in the East China Sea is too weak.
In the early days of the pirates, there were too many pirates and too fierce, even the navy dared to kill them, no wonder the pirates in the East China Sea and the Great Voyage have been unable to contain them, and the world government can only establish the Seven Martial Seas to suppress the endless pirates.
[The Klick Pirates claimed responsibility for the attack on the navy, and announced that they had more than a thousand crew members, claiming to be the king of the East China Sea, and the world government raised Klick's bounty to 12 million Baileys]
"The Klick Pirates?"
Martin shrugged his shoulders, this Klick was quite arrogant in the East China Sea, and he was beaten so much that he didn't even know his mother when he went to the Great Voyage.
The defeat of the navy is not good news, it means that the situation in the East China Sea will tilt in favor of the pirate forces, which will be a disaster for the entire East China Sea.
Fortunately, there is a naval logistics base in Orange Town, although the base is not large, and there are not many naval soldiers stationed, but the pirates will have some scruples and will not arbitrarily include Orange Town in their sphere of influence.
No matter how much it is, as long as Orange Town is not occupied by the Navy.
After Martin looked at the important information in the newspaper, he picked up the Senbon Sakura beside him.
[Senbon Sakura - Beginning Solution 99/100, requires the power of the corresponding Devil Fruit]
In recent days, his speed of brushing the power of flowers and fruits has slowed down, mainly because women are always inconvenient for a few days, and his waist is too hot, just to cool down.
Praise is not so easy to get, and it is necessary to be precise in terms of technique, emotion, rhythm, durability, etc.
If you work hard tonight, it is estimated that Senbon Sakura will be completely unlocked.
In other words, Robin-chan's appetite has been getting bigger recently, is this the legendary woman who has no scruples after marriage?
"The hostess of that flower shop is so beautiful, and it's a pleasure to go to her to buy flowers."
"It's so beautiful, is she married?"
"I heard that she is a widow when she gets married, but don't chase her, I heard that this widow has a high vision and has rejected many men, even the mayor's son has been rejected."
The two young men walked through the small courtyard of the workshop, and their conversation made Martin, who had a good perception, hear it clearly.
Ever since Mrs. Joel opened the flower shop, these male customers have been like little bees around the flowers.
As long as it is a bachelor, they want to see the face of this big beauty with their own eyes, after all, they lived in a simple place before, and even if they heard it, they didn't have a chance to take a few more looks.
For many men, it's an ownerless treasure.
Is beauty a curse?
Sometimes it's not a good thing for a girl to be too beautiful, as long as she doesn't have enough power to control her beauty, she will be spied on, and even misfortune will happen.
Mrs. Joel may have lived in seclusion because she knew that her beauty would cause trouble.
"Mr. Martin, have you heard about the Navy?"
While Martin was covering his face with a newspaper and trying to take a nap in the sun, Mrs. Joel came to Martin's workshop and knocked on the door of the workshop's fence.
Martin raised his head, still holding a newspaper in his hand: "The navy has lost this time, and I am afraid that the order in the East China Sea will be even worse." ”
"I just knew, Mrs. Joel, you don't have to worry, we have a naval logistics base here, and the pirates will be more or less afraid of it."
"Didn't all those pirates who dared to break into the town last time be wiped out?"
Martin smiled, looked at the slender and dignified-looking mature woman, and comforted her.
"You know I'm alone, and you've been a warrant officer in the Navy, and I'd like to hire you to protect me from Orange Town and go to Rogue Town if it's convenient."
Mrs. Joel's eyes twinkled, "Of course, I'll pay, or whatever!" ”
"Oh? Do you think this orange town is not safe? ”
Martin wondered.
"Well, I'm feeling a little dangerous in Orange Town right now, and besides, I want to find someone to marry."
Mrs. Joel said, looking at Martin with a pair of phoenix eyes like spring water.
"Do you want to marry? Is spring coming, and it's time for all things to multiply? ”
Martin was a little surprised.
By the way, beauty, why are your eyes weird?
Why do you see me that way?
Look at me again? Look at me carefully eating you again.
Just as they were looking at each other and were about to burst out of something, a burst of artillery sound came from the direction of the port, interrupting the two people's gaze.
Looking up, I saw the Navy port in the distance filled with smoke, and puffs of black smoke rose from it.
What's the situation?
Someone shelling a naval logistics base?
