Chapter 618: The Lion and the Sheep

[Thank you Lin Fu, very tiger, rattle, little pig, and several big monthly passes for the moon and the sea!]

In the palm of his hand was a necklace strung with shells and the bones of an unknown water beast, and Franklin watched it quietly. The sea breeze ruffled his hair, and on a mast behind him, the flag of the Silver Hook Pirate Ship was still flying. Franklin's figure stood like an iron tower on the pirate ship, becoming a shadow in the hearts of the dozen surviving pirates on board.

Oh no. Since Franklin became captain, they have gone from pirates to sailors.

Leaving the small island, the Silver Hook set sail for the sea, but it had not done a single murder and robbery business for more than a month. Franklin clearly had no idea what it was, and the new captain was bent on making his way to Roaring Bay, and the sailors on board knew quite well what it was.

There are countless whirlpools of the sea in Roaring Bay, and although they are not as numerous as the great whirlpools known as the Gate of the Abyss, they are numerous. They create complex and varied undercurrents in the sea, and it is difficult to sail the ship through without a helmsman who is not familiar with the area. In addition, a large number of pirates have gathered near the Roaring Vortex, and they have repeatedly failed to return the Holy Seal Knights with the help of natural hazards.

Among those pirates are the four largest shili, they are the tiger shark, the walrus, the water demon and the iron scale. These four bands of pirates control the entire Roaring Bay, and they have not only fierce pirates but also capable ones and even power armor. There are rumors among the pirates that they are Shili secretly cultivated by the rebels, but this rumor has never been confirmed. The only thing that is certain is that these four pirate regiments are so strong that even the Knights of the Holy Seal can't do anything about them.

The only way to annihilate these pirates is to lure them to land and then use power armor to destroy them. Otherwise, at sea, even if the Knights of the Holy Seal sent the most terrifying Knights of the Round Table, they would not be able to fight in such an environment as the sea.

Of course, Franklin wouldn't care about the pirates and the papal chamber. He was more concerned about how to get to Ishtar through Roaring Bay.

He wore the strange necklace around his neck, which had been given to him by Anilou. After killing Silverhook and capturing the pirate ship, Franklin prepares to leave the island the next day. Right next to the dock, Anilou gave him the necklace as a souvenir.

Franklin will never forget the first girl to be so kind to him after waking up, even if he may not have the opportunity to zaijian in the future. But as long as he wears the necklace by his side, he will not forget every day and night on the island.

While his thoughts were still in his memory, he suddenly heard a sailor shouting: "Alarm!

Franklin came back to his senses, his eyes softened, and his eyes became awe-inspiring. He looked up, and sure enough, there were two warships parked on the sea in front of him. Both are medium-sized vessels, with a hybrid of wind and manpower. The ship's jet-black muzzles were lined up to face Franklin's side, and the flags of the Knights on the two warships were waving in the wind.

One of the sailors shouted: "Captain, it's too late for us to get around!"

"No, rush forward, we have no way back!" Franklin shouted words that made all the sailors desperate.

Attacking two well-armed warships with the Silver Hook is a death to death no matter how you look at it. What is even more desperate is that there are flashes of light in the distance on the two warships. It was metal reflecting the light of the sky, and a sailor saw in his binoculars four griffon knights appear on the warship of the Order, and immediately shouted, "Oh no, they also have power armor on board!"

At this moment, on a warship on the left, a man who looked like an officer also lowered his binoculars and sneered, "Is that Harry's ship with Silver Hook? Just in time, Griffin Knight, sink this ship for me!"

The Gryphon Knight is a modified second-generation power armor capable of short-range flight at low altitudes. Although the cruising range is short, it is more than enough for the two sides to fight within the visual range as it is now.

At the commander's command, the griffon knights on the decks of the two warships soared into the sky, the thrusters behind the power armor spewing long tails of flame, sending them like large missiles towards the Silverhook.

The silver hook frightened, and the sailors were shocked: "Here it is, it's the griffin knight." Oh my God, there are four, four power armors!"

Seeing that the griffin knight was about to come to the sky above the pirate ship, he suddenly blasted out two blood-red beams of energy from the Silver Hook. The two beams of energy drew a semicircle on the surface of the sea and disappeared, and then, four fireballs exploded above the sea, and then in the booming explosion, the shock wave blew up a large area of spray and scattered with the wind!

"What's that?" the officer yelled, "They have beam weapons?

The sailors aboard the Silver Hook were also shocked, and one of them looked at Franklin, just in time to see the red light in his eyes fade. Franklin ignored him, and only yelled, "What are you still doing in a daze, hoist the whole sail, and go all out!"

"Yes!" the sailors woke up from their dreams and went about their jobs.

They hoisted the two sails of the ship, and the Silver Hook was in a tailwind position, and immediately the two sails filled the wind and propelled the pirate ship through the waves. The Silver Hook leapfrogged the rain of fire from the Griffin Knights' explosion and unleashed a suicidal charge straight at the two warships.

On the warship, the commander of the Order roared: "Bombardment! Sink this ship for me!"

The roaring cannons suddenly came and went, and one after another shells burst through the air and exploded on the sea with a sharp roar, causing the nearby and the sea area in front of the Silver Hook to explode water columns! On the Silver Hook, the hull of the ship shook violently, and the faces of the sailors turned green. Some even wore crosses on their chests, regaining faith that they had forgotten for an unknown amount of time.

Franklin's eyes were like torches, and he only counted the distance between the two ships. When the distance was shortened to a value he expected, the giant ran on the deck. The short cannon made the Silver Hook shake even more, and when it reached the bow, Franklin leaped to his feet, and the huge Liliang stepped on the bow of the ship and pressed it against the water. The Silver Hook, which was supposed to be traveling with the wind, even slipped back a little on the surface of the sea because of this, so that a few cannonballs that should have fallen on the ship reluctantly bombarded the water, in vain with a few new water columns!

Not only did the sailors on board open their mouths wide, but even the officers and soldiers on the ships of the Holy Seal Knights were dumbfounded. In their eyes, a black mass of wind swept across the sea between the two ships, and then fell like a cannonball on the deck! Franklin bent over, and his big feet did not know how many plows had flown off the deck before finally stopping near the edge of the hull.

Then he slowly straightened up and said lightly: "Land safely." ”

Only then did the officer react, pointing at Franklin and yelling, "Kill this monster, quick!"

So the soldiers on the deck of the ship raised their guns and fired, but Franklin was already running. Despite his size, he was not slow to move at all, and most of the soldiers' shots missed. Even if there was luck enough to shoot him, the bullets from these light machine guns were nothing more than tickles for the giants. Franklin circled the ship and suddenly rushed to a mast in the middle of the ship.

He plunged his fingers into the mast, roared again, and lifted his whole body upwards with all his might. The entire hull shook violently, and waves continued to swing from the water. Zuihou Franklin roared like a sonic boom, shaking all the soldiers as if they were drunk, and everyone's ears bleed. But the giant took the opportunity to pull up the mast and threw it out with it. Like baseball players in the old days, Franklin swung his large bat and swept dozens of men off the boat.

I saw that the mast passed and swept away the fence of the ship, and the soldiers who were touched by it all vomited blood and bounced away, and then fell into the sea under the ship. Franklin smiled and swept back and forth a few times, and there were basically no one standing on the deck.

At this time, the body of the gun came from behind him, and the thick back was immediately shot. Franklin looked back, but it was soldiers from a warship on the right who opened fire on him. One of them, a heavily armored paladin, stepped out of the cabin, lifting its loaded cannon and preparing to fire. Franklin immediately turned, sprinted, and jumped high when he reached the stern. He jumped into the air above the warship on his right, the mast was straight, and he let out a loud roar and pressed the mast and crashed down!

The soldiers on the ship felt that the shadows in their eyes continued to expand, and the Zuihou mast stabbed straight into the body of the paladin's armor, and Franklin directly pressed the mast and the paladin's armor down the hull. When he landed on his feet, the mast was only a small part of the deck. The warship suddenly let out a thrilling popping sound, with the mast in the center, each with two crooked cracks that spread all the way to the extend, and finally boomed, and the giant ship was actually broken from it. The ends of the ship were raised high on both sides, allowing the soldiers on the boat to glide into the water screaming.

Franklin smiled coldly, and in an instant, he climbed to the tip of the ship, and then jumped back onto the original warship.

At this time, the compartment of the warship suddenly shattered, and a paladin armor crashed out of it. In the armored cockpit, the previous officer's expression was distorted, and he manipulated the machine gun to shoot at Franklin, and yelled: "I'm going to kill you, you monster!"

The machine gun was no more powerful than a light machine gun, and Franklin's perverted defense was not willing to hit it with this terrible weapon. So he ran, making his opponent's shots miss with irregular movements. He ran to the edge of the boat on the left and jumped out of the water, and the paladin armor chased after him, shooting into the water. The shuttle bullet hit the sea and constantly bounced up the water column, but I didn't know if it hit Franklin.

After a round of shooting, the officer gasped and looked at the water, looking for traces of Franklin. Suddenly, there was a popping sound from behind the mecha, and the commander immediately controlled the mecha to turn around, only to see countless deck debris flying, and Franklin rushed up below the deck like a demon god. The giant raised his arms and smashed down with his fists in a loud roar. The iron fist smashed on the driver's compartment, and the tempered insulating glass of the driver's compartment immediately shattered!

Franklin's iron fists smashed into the officers of the Order, and there was a sound of flesh and bones cracking, and the officers suddenly turned into flesh. The uncontrollable mecha stopped on the deck, Franklin's eyes lit up red, and two energy beams shot out, and with a flick of his head, the energy beams slashed across the deck, instantly cutting the warship in two.

As he jumped back onto the Silver Hook, the warship exploded, forming a huge ball of fire at sea. Flames rose into the sky with debris, and sparks fluttered in the wind, illuminating Franklin's eyes. The giant pointed in front of the two sunken warships with one hand and shouted, "Forward!"

"Yes!" the sailors cried out on the Silver Hook. Everyone was furious, they had never thought that the mighty Knights of the Holy Seal would be defeated by their own captain like this.

The continent of the West Continent, the city of New Rome.

In the strategic command room of the Papal Chamber, Sauron resembles an angry lion. He was in the prime of his life, and he was at the peak of both liliang and power. When he was angry, no one dared to look at him, so twenty or thirty officers in the whole room bowed their heads and were scolded.

Sauron roared, "What do I want you pieces of waste to do, how long has it been, and you can't even find a beast!"

At this moment, the door to the command room opened, and a graceful young man walked in. He wore a black and gold papal robe, a blood-red cloak behind him, a ring of white feathers embedded in his neck, a jeweled gold crown on his head, and a golden power battle carved with angels in his hand. The arrival of the young man caused all the officers except Sauron to take off their hats and half-kneel on the ground.

This was the standard etiquette for the Pope, and in the entire city of New Rome, only Sauron did not kneel.

"Uncle Zoro, what are you talking about?" said the young man in a spirited manner.

The young man in his twenties, with a childish face on his face, is the current Pope Paul VI. Behind him was a group of knights with bright armor and spears and shields. Seeing Paul coming, Sauron snorted coldly and said, "Your Excellency, I remember that at this time, you should be learning horseback riding and fencing, right?

The young Pope Haha smiled and said, "Uncle Zoro, I've heard that pirates have been rampant lately, and I'm here to see if there's anything I can do to help?"

"Help?" Zoro daxiao got up, smiling so hard that Paul's face began to be a little uncomfortable. He gradually put away his laughter, and those who knew him well knew that Sauron only laughed so happily when he was killing or angry. The louder he laughed, the more angry he felt. Sure enough, I heard Sauron's voice turn cold and said, "Is it false that the Pope wants to help me, and it is true to blame me for my ability?"

Paul's color suddenly changed, and he hurriedly said: "It's okay, Uncle Zoro, you are too sensitive. ”

"Sensitive?" Zoro snorted, and suddenly the sword at his waist came out of its sheath, flashing with a cold light that dazzled Paul. When the light cleared, the sword rested on the Pope's neck.

The young pope's face turned green with fright, and he sat down on the ground with his legs limp, trembling all over. Seeing this, Zoro said lightly: "Your Excellency, the pirates are all murderers who do not blink an eye. Deal with their rough work, let's do it. All you have to do is stay in the Papal Chamber, you don't have to go anywhere. Do you understand that?"

"Yes, got it. Paul busy.

Zoro waved his hand and said, "If you know, go out, it's time for you to learn to ride." ”

"Good haode. Paul was helped to his feet by one of the knights, and left the command room with the group of knights he had brought with him.

After the Pope left, one of Sauron's cronies whispered, "My lord, is it a little inappropriate to openly disgrace the Pope in this way?"

"Isn't it right?" Zoro sneered, "It's not thanks to me that a sword can frighten him out of his mind, and he can live a pampered life in the Pope's Chamber. I'm a lion, and he's a sheep in my captivity. If the lion doesn't eat the sheep, the sheep should be grateful to Dade, so why don't you still expect the lion to give him face? What a big joke!"

"Yes, yes, my lord said it very much. The cronie immediately shut up and stopped talking about the subject.

Outside the command room, the knight who was supporting the Pope just now trembled with anger, and said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, Sauron, a traitor, has openly insulted you. This breath, the subordinates can't swallow it no matter what. As long as the lord gives us an order, we are willing to kill this traitor for the lord!"

The other knights also responded.

A faint smile slowly appeared on his childish face, straightened up, straightened the crown, and the young pope's eyes were like electricity, how could he look like he was half a bag just now. He said lightly: "Sauron naturally has this kind of capital, and now that he is covering the sky with one hand in the entire city of Rome, how can he take me, the pope, in his eyes." Didn't you listen to him? He said that he was a lion and I was a sheep, and he didn't care about me at all. But that's exactly what I want. Do not act rashly, but bear with it a little longer. It won't be long before Sauron will know how foolish it is to despise me, the lamb!"

"Yes, sir. ”

In the command room, a light screen on the wall received a request for a call. Zoro glanced at him, and since someone had passed the request, a man's figure appeared in the light screen, but it was Sine, the head of the 3rd Branch of the Holy Seal Knights. He habitually turned the broken ring at his tail finger, and seemed to be thinking about something before the communication was established, and his vision was far-reaching.

"Master Sine, I hope you have good news for me. To be honest, it's been a terrible few days, and the news I've gotten is getting worse than the other. Zoro spread his hands.

On the screen, Sine sighed and said, "Then I can only tell you one more bad news, just in the morning, we had two warships sunk by pirates. ”

Sauron's face sank, and the head of the sub-group said, "But it was a person we all knew about who sank the warship. ”

"Oh, who is it?"

Sine said lightly: "Our crazy Mr. Beast, this is the record found on the armor of one of the destroyed paladins, and now I will teleport it to you." ”

A file transfer sign then appears below, and after Sauron receives it, a video appears on the light screen. What caught everyone's eyes was the image of the paladin mecha firing wildly, and a chain of fiery red bullets from the machine gun chased a tall figure. When the picture freezes, Franklin, who is yelling, appears on the light screen!
