Chapter 326: Declaration of War!
On this day, the most talked about in the entire Kordo Sea and the coastal city-states and kingdoms of the four continents are still Alexei Island, the Demigod Wizard, the Church of the Dawn and the "Calamity Wizard".
But by the evening of the next day, news spread even more rapidly through the waters of Cordo.
- Suad Ermano, captain of the USS Alanika, "The Singer", announced that he will officially compete with the Black Pearl for control of the waters of Cordo!
As soon as these words came out, the entire Kordo Sea, whether it was pirates, noble merchants, churches, or sects, was in an uproar.
Although there had been competition and friction between the USS Alanika and the Black Pearl, and there had been casualties on both sides, this was the first time that such a formal declaration of war had been made.
Not only that, Suad also announced that starting from Swens Island on the western mainland, from west to east, through Corjero Island and Raymond Island...... From Alexei Island to the city-state of Dorosel on the southern shore of the Eastern Continent, the Alanika will pull out the islands, sea taboos, deep-sea zones, ruins, etc. occupied by the Black Pearl one by one.
"It's lively!"
"The Alanika is really here this time!"
"It's been around for a long time, hasn't it? Didn't Blackjack get hunted down by 'The Ripper' Domitry Pruitt last time? He almost died at sea. β
"Great, that emperor has occupied the waters of Cordo for too long, and it's time for someone else to sit in that position."
"Hmph, I admit that the Alanika and Suyad are very strong, but the Black Pearl has been able to stand for many years and is not only thanks to the 'Emperor of the Sea' Isabello Clijsters. Don't forget, in addition to the vice-captains of Blackjack and Lotilia, there are no less than forty pirates in the entire sea, many of whom are legendary-level transcendent......"
"In short, the Cordor Sea is going to be lively now, I hope it won't affect our side......"
Just when the whole sea was talking, on Awad Island, the top floor of the tower in the center of the city-state.
Blackjack looked at Waleed with a serious face, "Is it done?" β
"It's okay, now I've switched to the encrypted channel." Waleed listened to the sound coming from his bloody ears, and then put it on the table, and slipped away under the pretext that he had other things to do.
ββ¦β¦ I'm X, asshole shit Suyad, I'm *&......"
Blackjack picked up his ears and listened to it suspiciously, with the same black line on his face, and said helplessly to Youan: "The mood of the hammer girl is not very good at this time......
"Obviously." Euan nodded faintly.
Anyone who hears that kind of news will probably not be in a good mood.
Especially now, the "Emperor of the Sea" has not yet come out, and the entire Black Pearl has to rely on that woman to support her, and her pressure can be imagined.
"Who? Blackjack, you're talking, aren't you? Get out! β
"Ahem, Lotilia, it's me." Blackjack coughed into his ear.
"You bastard, let you be on Awad Island, you're going to die there, right? The Aranika's shit is going to ride on your head, how did you kill them? β
The voice was so loud that even Menor next to him couldn't help but look sideways, and he looked at the excitement with a smile.
Behind him were Chloa, dressed in gray gowns, and manatees shrouded in robes.
"Lotilia, let's get rid of my anger first," Black Jack was scolded, and he could only comforted helplessly: "Since the matter has come out, let's discuss how to deal with it." Suyad's character, you know, since he dares to say so, he must be fully prepared, if we ......"
"Humph!" Lotilia snorted coldly, and her bloody ears trembled, and after a few seconds, she seemed to calm down before continuing: "Okay, everyone is here, today's meeting has officially begun......
"I'm sorry, Vice Captain Lotilia, but we have something to know before the meeting begins."
At this moment, a rough voice came out, interrupting Lotilia's shrill voice, and said, "How long will the boss sleep?" β
"Casirachi? Who do you call 'we'? Lotilia asked in a flat tone.
"This ...... Of course it's me, we're ......."
"I, Ashara Gaines, want to ask that question too."
"And me, Zolt Sims......"
For a while, more than a dozen names broke out in the entire contact channel one after another, which made Blackjack, who was paying attention to the progress of the entire meeting, look solemn.
He knew what these big pirates meant, and now that the Aranika was coming, it was easy for everyone to have other ideas if the boss was not there.
But something like thatβ
"Okay, then I'll reply to you in unison," Lotilia said in a cold voice, "The answer is that I don't know, since the boss fell asleep, even I can't contact him." I don't know if you are satisfied with this answer? β
"This ...... Deputy Captain Lotilia, if the boss is not there, in case Suad makes a move......" Casirach asked hesitantly.
"Isn't that what we're here for today? Or is it that Casirachi, and the 'Yagibson' you lead, want to betray the Black Pearl? β
"Of course not, it's not!"
"It's better not!" Blackjack suddenly spoke, warning in a serious tone: "The current situation is not very favorable for our Black Pearl, but it is not a matter of life and death. β
"I know some of you are careful, but it's best not to show it, or don't blame me for turning my face!"
"All right, Black Jack," Lotilia interrupted, "in that case, let's not talk about it for now. Jumping straight to the point, each ship reports on who is fighting and where they are at the moment. β
"Blackjack, the Whitekee, located on Awad Island, can fight 432 people, including ......"
"Casirachi, Yagibson......"
After saying each other, Lotilia only said two words, "Wait a minute", and the entire channel fell into a long silence.
Blackjack was not surprised, and stepped aside with Euan and Menor, and whispered: "Lotilia still needs some time to calculate the next arrangement in the sea." β
"Oh." Euan nodded.
Menol said with interest: "I have long heard that Lotilia is the brain of your Black Pearl, and now it seems that it is indeed very powerful. β
"Of course, she is not only a powerful brain, but also can see through fate...... "Black Jack finished proudly, looked at him and said, "How many of you can come this time?" This time the declaration of war on the Alanika, there is obviously the shadow of those bandage monsters behind it. β
"Not much for now, just me and Chloa, as well as the Manatee Clan, can help." Menor said with a relaxed expression.
"Too little, right? You also know that the last time Dominory came, with his lineup that time, for example, it was unknown whether the other pirates in the entire Black Pearl could escape except for me. β
"I've thought of this for a long time, it's hard to resist, but when it comes to escaping...... The Manatees can help you even more. β
"Oh?" Blackjack looked at the other side, a tall figure shrouded in black robes, and asked suspiciously, "I don't know what they are capable of......"
"It's not a particularly powerful ability, but it's a good fit for the Cordor Sea." Menol chuckled and spat out a few words: "Their ability is to control water and summon deep sea species. β
"Deep-sea species?"
"Of course, those aberrations aren't included here......"
Blackjack lowered his head and thought for a few seconds, then nodded, "If you have the ability to control water, you can speed up the speed of the ship." As for the deep-sea species, if they are not deep-sea species that have reached a certain level of strength, it will not help us much. Later, I'll suggest a look to Lotilea. β
"Wait for the time being," Menor hurriedly shook his head and said, "For the time being, don't expose the existence of our Eternal Life Society and the Manatee Clan." β
"Are you suspicious......" Blackjack was stunned for a moment and frowned.
"I agree."
Without waiting for Black Jack to finish speaking, Youan raised his hand and said, "The current situation is not clear enough, and rashly taking out all the hole cards will only make Su Yad and them prepared." β
"What ......," Blackjack hesitated, "how?" β
"The 'epidemic doctor' is right, observe for a few days before speaking." Menol still smiled and said, "I believe that with the strength of the Black Pearl and the arrangement of Lotilia, it will definitely not make the Aranika and Suyad too comfortable." β
"Of course ......"
At that moment, the voice of Lotilia came to my ears againβ
"As fate would have it, all ships and personnel west of Alexei Island were transferred to the east and rushed directly to the island of Awad to converge."
"Among them are Nasrin 'Demon Eye' and 'Doctor Mechanic' Sardden...... You need to get too close to the western continent and turn the ship's speed. β
"But remember, don't forget to destroy the supply islands along the way when you transfer, and don't let any of them go!"
"Supplies? Why? β
Lotilia heard someone interrupt and said in an unhappy tone, "Until the boss wakes up, try to avoid a head-on confrontation with the Aranika." If you have an opinion, then you can also go to Swens Island to die! β
ββ¦β¦β
"Everyone, it's not child's play now, let's be nervous - this is war!"
"Yes, first mate ......"
After the meeting, Blackjack talked to Lotilia alone before hanging up the contact with a heavy face.
"How?" Menol asked.
"As you can see, it's not good. According to Lotilea's original words, 'fate guides her, and she avoids the edge for the time being'. β
"Then keep waiting?" Euan asked suspiciously, "Does this mean that the one is about to wake up?" β
"Hammer didn't go into details, but I think the boss should be waking up soon." Blackjack clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said, "When the boss returns, it's the death of those mongrels on the Aranika!" β
"Is there anything else we need to prepare?"
"For the time being...... Well, I have to urge that kid Wayne, he has announced that he has become the owner of Alexei Island, and it is time for the [Burst Sniper Rifle] to send a batch, right? There's that stuff here, and it's enough to support the early fight......"
"Inform Marco and contact Wayne ......"
While the Black Pearl was mobilizing for war, many of the Aranika's ships were already ready to go in the waters west of Cordo.
One of the strangest things was the dozens of black carriages behind the boat, driven by a gravedigger without saying a word.
And on the Alanika, Suyad was in good spirits, and many pirates such as Domitri who followed him looked at the eastern sea and laughed: "This day, I have waited too long, what about you?" β
"Can't wait, Boss."
"Flip the Black Pearl!"
"Yes," Suyad waved his fist, "Flip the Black Pearl, knock out the 'Emperor of the Sea' Isabelo Clijsters, and the entire Kordo Sea will belong to us in the future!" β
"Alanika!"
"Alanika!"
Looking at the hot-blooded pirates around him, Su Yade had a bright smile on his face and shouted: "Let's go!" β
Woo β
The long horn sounded throughout the sea, and one after another sailboats set off, surrounded by the heavy clouds behind them, all the way to the east!
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
At the same time, on the eastern coast of the Eastern Continent, there are vast but empty plains.
From the sky, countless small ant-like people were scattered on this plain.
Some of them wore the knightly armor of the Church of the Dawn, some were lightly dressed as hunters or thieves, but many more were wizards in the robes of the occult wizards.
These people gathered here, for no other reason, simply to find out the secret of the disappearance of the Secret Tower.
"Did you find anything?"
"Nope."
"Did you find anything?"
"No ......"
"It's as if the whole school has been wiped out with great force in an instant, but I can't think of what kind of existence it is. It will leave Chief Ragnar powerless. β
Dozens of occult wizards gathered, each with frustration written on their faces, blank eyes, and hair like weeds, but they didn't bother to tidy up their appearance, they just wanted to find out why the school had disappeared.
"It's not time to be depressed," led by a legendary wizard of the Occult School, he looked around and said, "The thread of fate between me and Chief Ragnar has not been broken, which means that the Chief is not in danger for the time being!" β
"If my guess is correct, it should be a kind of spatial banishment-like force that pulls the entire Mystic Tower into it. The Chief Lord, they can't find the spatial anchor of this world, so they are trapped there. β
"So our priority now is to find as many traces of them as possible, or find a way to pass on the anchor points here......"
At this moment, a huge spatial crack went vertically down the sky, tearing open abruptly.
"Huh?!"
"Get out of the way, there's a powerful transcendent!"
"Who is it? Will it be the chief they ......"
Just as these Spiritual Secret Sects were fleeing, they saw a figure slowly step out of that spatial crack, followed by the second, third, and fourth.
And as they walked out, the spatial crack disappeared, and the occult wizards saw the appearance of those people clearly.
"It's a wizard of the two schools of ghosts and blood spirits...... Wait a minute! The ......"
The Spirit Legend suddenly became excited, and he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him wearing sunglasses and a gift, and flashed over.
ββ¦β¦ This is where the Secret Tower is located? It's miserable. Vilosa looked around in amazement.
"Indeed," Salvatore frowned, noticing the mystical wizards around him, "Someone is coming." β
"Hmm."
Vaklaf nodded with a relaxed expression, "It should be a secret wizard who was left behind, and it can be considered a poor ......"
Only Wayne didn't say a word, and his spiritual perception covered the plain area ahead, and nothing was found, as if it had always been such a vast emptiness.
At this moment, the legendary wizard of the Spiritual Mystery School came to him, looked at them with excitement on his face, and said:
"You, you're the Chief Wizard of the Ghost School of Wakaclogh?!"
