At noon the next day, the black flag of Iron Anchor Bay was unfurled.

Thousands of pirate ships, large and small, all sailed out of their berths, stretching like black clouds in the wide waters outside the harbor to the end of the horizon.

But it is clearly divided into two parts that are opposed to each other.

They are led by the Edward the Redbeard, the Vice-President of the Captain's Council, and the Flame Rose of the Bay Princess Violet.

And the former is obviously a lot more than the latter.

Before the start of the game, all the pirates had already chosen their own side, and there was no room for the wall-riding faction to survive.

Byron and his [Golden Deer] were naturally among them.

In order to strengthen his control over his motley army, Redbeard sent many of his henchmen to different pirate ships.

Each of them led a part of the pirate detachment.

Byron, who had already made up his mind, didn't care about leaving Redbeard's side temporarily, and naturally returned to his [Golden Deer].

He made it the flagship of seven pirate ships in his fleet.

Behind him stood his right-hand guard knight Bruch and Phantom Blade Gus.

The honest man Eight Fingers, the indigenous youth Wyndott who drank the [Angel's Kiss] and became the captain of the gun by the way, and so on were also eager to try.

Little Hans also received a bottle of [Angel's Kiss] as a reward for assisting Old Hans in the transformation of the Golden Deer.

Sitting on the deck holding a book and nibbling on it.

After seeing the demeanor of a gunpowder artist, he was determined to embark on the path of [Craftsman] to expel ignorance with knowledge, and seize all the time to improve himself.

And in terms of how to deal with the side effects of [Angel's Kiss], little Hans also has a huge advantage that all crew members can't match.

He's got a dad!

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Byron looked up at the clock tower in the center of the city.

"Get ready to go."

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes that are either ghostly, or uneasy, or crazy and bloodthirsty.

The ancient bronze bell in the bell tower was struck, and the grand bell of the triennial resounded throughout Iron Anchor Bay, and reverberated far above the sea.

A solemn atmosphere descended abruptly.

Not only the chaotic pirates, but also the harsh winds of the seas have subsided.

Immediately after, in the [Spiritual Vision] of all the transcendents, a blood-colored illusory net slowly opened above their heads.

It was the sub-law [Pirate Code] that directly ruled the pirate port.

Maybe it's because there are so many lighthouse sequence transcendents gathered here, and even an illusory giant lighthouse has formed in the sky.

Under the illumination of the light, the transcendents of the same sequence felt a little more spiritually lively.

Then an ancient voice that seemed to have come from thousands of years ago, without the slightest emotion, sounded in the heart of every pirate:

"Statistics: There are thirteen councillors, and there are a total of 1,186 captains who have the [Ten Commandments of Pirates] recognized by the code.

There are no new applications for co-optation of members of Parliament this time.

【Overseer】There are two candidates: No. 1, Edward the Redbeard, Deputy Speaker; Number two, hereditary Congressman Violet Harold.

The election conditions are met, and the campaign ceremony begins.

Game 1: Poll. ”

As soon as the words fell, blood fell in front of each captain's eyes, condensing into a ballot printed with a skull.

Whether it is an old fur seal or a newcomer, the captain realizes instantly.

Whether you are literate or not, as long as it is a true expression, even if it is just a point, you can vote for the candidate of your choice.

Byron, of course, also had a not-so-precious vote.

I didn't even look at it, I just wrote a one and voted for Redbeard.

Facts have also proved that his vote is really useless.

The two pillars of light, which respectively represent the support rate of the two, were evenly matched at the beginning, and you chased after me, and the gap opened up after a while.

Violet was thrown half of her body away by Redbeard, and the gap grew wider and wider, until it was difficult to reach the horse.

Byron was not at all surprised by this situation.

The interests of Iron Anchor Bay have long been completely sold by Redbeard, and he has even signed a strict contract with other members of parliament who are complicit.

Naturally, Violet was far ahead of Violet, who could not betray the interests of the race.

I just hid the treasure map of Treasure Island tightly, as a hole card for salted fish to turn over and get rich in the future.

It was a pity that Byron couldn't get more enemies.

It was only ten minutes before and after, and the ancient voice sounded again:

"When the time comes, count the votes.

Candidate No. 1 has 671 votes and candidate No. 2 has 515 votes.

In the first round of the Overseer election, candidate Edward the Redbeard wins! ”

The pirate ship surrounding the [Nemesis] suddenly erupted in loud cheers, as if it had already won the battle.

"Haha, that chick even lost the vote, and it's even more impossible to win the fight.

Captain Redbeard is a wanted man with a bounty of £58,000, so could he lose to a little girl who doesn't even have a title? ”

"Our Redbeard Captain is immortal, an invincible pirate!"

"If you want me to say, the princess of the Wanmin should marry the captain, wouldn't it be better for the two of them to rule Iron Anchor Bay together?

Her Royal Highness the princess is twenty years old, and our captain is forty years old, so it's a good match, hahaha."

Many people have seen the sight of Redbeard returning unscathed under the repeated bombardment, and they are full of infinite confidence in him.

However, the election ceremony has only just begun.

Unlike the mundane world, which is only polled, this is a transcendent manifest world.

Respect for the collective will is also respect for the powerful individual force that can break the rules and suppress the collective will.

The winner of the ballot will not be elected immediately.

Instead, they will get a privilege in their favor in the next "martial arts" link.

The [Pirate Code] runs automatically, and the ancient voice continues to sound:

"Traditionally, the alternatives to martial arts are as follows:

1. Fighting alone, two candidates fight to the death one-on-one until one of them dies or admits defeat and begs for mercy;

Second, the artillery duel, the two candidates each lead a five-man artillery crew, occupy a fortress cannon one kilometer apart, and shoot at each other until one side is completely destroyed or admits defeat;

3. Sailing racing, driving your own flagship around the island for a week, the one who finishes first wins, during which you can hinder the opponent in any way including but not limited to firing guns, engaging in broadside battles, cursing, etc.;

Fourth, the battleship fighting, the battleship is a battleship, sinking the enemy ship or raising the white flag to surrender;

5. In the decisive battle of the fleet, each commanding the fleet to start a fleet melee under the same conditions;

6. Treasure hunt competition, in a specific area, to find a certain target treasure or decrypt the unknown, the same means are arbitrary during the period.

Ask the winner, Edward the Redbeard, to eliminate one of them, and spin the wheel to start a fight with one of the five remaining martial arts styles. ”

The "fight" of the Overseer's election is also very pirate-style.

These six martial arts styles cover almost all the skills required for pirate raiding.

They correspond to gang jumping, landing and plundering, chasing and killing merchant ships, fighting each other, looting caravans, and exploring treasure hunts.

It's a martial arts competition, but it's better to say a pirate professional skills competition.

Because of the class subdivision of the [Ladder of Glory], each transcendent has its own limitations, and needs companions from other professions to complement each other, and it is impossible to be exhaustive.

It's also impossible to be good at all professional skills.

Therefore, the "exclusion" privilege of the winner of the first game is especially valuable.

You can remove the most unfavorable option from the wide variety of martial arts fighting methods.

"I'll choose the second one, the artillery duel."

Without the slightest hesitation, Redbeard made a decisive choice.

If you feel the bombardment once, you will never want to feel it a second time, and if you get this one randomly, he will definitely lose.

Then he waved his hand out of thin air, and the wheel, with only five options left, began to spin rapidly.

Redbeard looked at Violet across from her, and saw that there was no expression on her face all along, as if she had given up completely.

I couldn't help but smile as a victor.

However, seeing that the roulette wheel was spinning more and more slowly, Violet suddenly smiled strangely at Redbeard:

"Didn't you notice that all the councillors on my side also voted for you?"

Redbeard's heart chuckled, and a hint of bad premonition inexplicably rose.

"What do you mean?"

I saw Violet on the other side raise her right hand, and the [Whalebone Seal] on her index finger, which symbolized the power of the Pirate King of the North Sea, was full of inspiration.

A pleasant female voice sounded in everyone's ears:

"As the agent of the Pirate King of the North Sea, I forcibly locked the sixth item, the treasure hunt.

At the same time, apply to open the Great Secret Treasure Trial of the Bay People, and lock the treasure hunt location [Valhalla] this time!

Accept the election punishment mechanism, one enemy owns. ”

Just when everyone else was confused and didn't know what was going on, the roulette wheel faded away like the wind, leaving only a line of text.

"Determine the martial arts project, treasure hunt competition!

Location: Valhalla.

Contestants: Violet; All the transcendent captains on the Redbeard side.

Winning Decision: Find the Great Secret Treasure of the Wanmin and unlock the secret of the prophecy. ”

Obviously, this is one of the descendants of the Wanmin who have ruled this place for thousands of years.

If the winner can exclude one item, they can force one of them!

Although it is necessary to pay the price of one person against all the enemies to maintain fairness.

But he also took full advantage of the loopholes in the voting rules and planted five pirates of his own in the enemy camp.

Exactly who killed the deer was suddenly confused.

"What's going on? Isn't Valhalla a resting place for the waneers? ”

"It's the world of the dead, I don't want to go!"

“”

The privateer alliance fryed in an instant, and Byron was the only one who was calm.

This was a plan that he had discussed with the gunpowder artist in advance, and it was not unexpected.

But when the long desolate trumpet sounded.

When the scene in front of me rippled like water waves, a line of text suddenly appeared on the [Logbook]:

"You've discovered a new secret: the prophecy, kingship, and prophecy of the revival of Woden, the god of the wild hunt!

The legend that the glory of the people of the Bay will be revived by blood and fire is obviously more than a simple legend.

Historical influence 69, solution density 1%. ”
