In Kirishima, the smoke clouds are as thick as heavy haze, and the sun has no chance with the earth!

Here, it is a gray and bleak world, and both on the island and outside the island seem to have no contact with the light world.

Here, no plants can grow.

There are no trees, no grass, and no flowers, and the bare island stands above the sea.

However, on this seemingly lifeless island, along the edge of the island, there are countless houses and living people in motion.

And, it seems, these people are living here as if they are doing well, even better than the slums of Sauls.

Children play with each other on the pier and in the street, while women either do laundry or help the fishing boats at the pier carry their catch.

But in addition to these catches, these fishing boats collect more of a seaweed-like thing.

And that's what the people of this island eat.

The seaweed is covered with something similar to chestnut rice, and the taste is not much worse than that of real chestnut rice.

In addition to the ordinary fishing boats, on the other side of the pier, there are dozens of slightly larger pirate ships.

These pirate ships are moored on the docks, and pirates are stationed and patrolling.

And they are the private property of the island's owner, the great pirate Thorfinn.

on the pier.

"Lord Is, according to speculation, the migration of fish should be in the past few days, and Lord Thorfinn should be coming back too, so you don't need to worry too much."

"Lord Thorfinn's resourcefulness is absolutely top-notch, and he was also raised by you, don't you still trust Lord Thorfin's ability?"

"Besides, now on the Sols continent, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the Pars Empire, with the implicit support of some churches, and the secret help of the Grand Duke of the Pars Empire, the restoration of my Gulf Kingdom is definitely not a problem."

"As soon as the time comes, the behemoth of the Pars Empire will definitely fall immediately! Then it's our chance to get out of this damn place! ”

In front of a gray-haired old man, a pirate spoke his opinion to him with a hopeful face, and his expression was extremely excited.

The old man looked at the middle-aged pirate with a scar on his face, and his expression was always worried.

"Of course I believe in His Highness's heart and resourcefulness."

"But, Tosh, His Royal Highness is always a mortal, and if you are a mortal, there will be times when things go wrong."

"Although His Highness has a suitable demigodic weapon, in the face of such a behemoth as the Pars Empire, as long as he is not careful, all his calculations will be lost."

"What's more, as an ancient empire that has stood on the continent for thousands of years, the Pars Empire's heritage is absolutely unimaginable, do you think it's really just these are the three artifacts of an artifact on the surface?"

"Compared to the restoration of the country, I, a crippled old man, really don't have hope now, I only hope that the bloodline of His Royal Highness, the bloodline of my Gulf royal family, can continue forever, this is actually my last wish."

"When the true god awakens, everything is left to the true god to decide, in fact, that is the best result."

"The great god of the four seas will definitely not harm his last part of the bloodline in the world, even if the Tide Church is really important to the god of the four seas, but I think there will be no problem for the prince's bloodline to continue."

"Power, wealth, vendetta, I have seen too much in my life, and His Highness has sacrificed too much for this."

The old man sighed and looked at the gray sea level, his expression full of worry undiminished.

When Tosh heard the old man Is's words, his expression suddenly showed displeasure.

"Hmph, I'm afraid that Lord Iss is getting older and more confused, and the less courage he had back then!"

"Your Highness and I have a monstrous blood feud with the Pars Empire, how can we say that we will give up?"

"The choice after the great god of the four seas awakens? It sounds good, but the devil knows if the thousand-year prophecy is true? What if the true God hadn't awakened more than a decade later? Could it be that we should keep our descendants waiting? And continue to live in this hellish place? ”

"Lord Is, I am very grateful to you, really, if you hadn't quietly rescued me and the prince and others from the fall of the kingdom back then, I am afraid that we would have died in that war of the country."

"However, the matter of restoring the kingdom, I, Tosh, must complete it together with His Highness!"

"I must return the blood feud of the Pars Empire in my lifetime, if not, I would rather die!! Hum!!! ”

After the middle-aged pirate finished speaking, he turned around angrily and left.

The old man looked at the scene in front of him, and he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

He looked at the sea and sky and sighed deeply.

"The great god of the four seas is above~"

“......”

The old man didn't know what to pray to the gods, and finally the thousands of words turned into a sigh again in his throat.

God? The gods are sleeping, so what's the use of praying to them?

If the gods they believed in were useful, the Gulf Kingdom would not have been destroyed.

Therefore, for the so-called god of the four seas, in fact, the old man has not had much piety for a long time.

Not to mention the old man, all the descendants of the kingdom who escaped from the destruction of the country on this island have long since had no real faith.

It's just that shouting slogans has become a habit.

The old man sighed, and stood on the dock looking into the distance, and behind him a group of pirates guarding him were silent.

The old man was so looking forward to the return of his Highness.

Looking forward to the return of the child he raised on the run, who had been on the run since he was eight years old, and eventually came to one of the kingdom's last hidden islands.

For an old man, he actually has no pursuit, and his only pursuit is to hope that his child can return safely.

And so, in this waiting.

Before you know it, the sky will become completely dark again.

However, at this time, suddenly the sea breeze began to blow around the entire Kirishima on the pier.

The sea breeze is getting stronger and the waves are getting more and more urgent.

Countless residents of the island began to talk about it, thinking that a rainstorm was coming.

Even the old man was ready to return to his lodgings under the persuasion of the guards.

However, at this moment, suddenly there was a panicked shout from the dock!

"Oh my God!! Fast!!! Look! What is that!!! ”

"The gods of the four seas are above!! Sea monster!!! The sea monster is coming!! ”

"No!! It's not just sea monsters!! Look! On one of the sea monster's tentacles, it seemed to be the boss of the leader!! ”

"The chief is back!! No, it's Your Highness!! Your Highness is back! And with a big sea monster!! The gods are above, I am not hallucinating??? ”

“.......”
