Being able to obtain a bottle of "Shadow Dragon's Blood" from the ancient wizard's treasure house was of course a great surprise for Ivan.

this era.

In the Old Continent, where human civilization is the most developed, not to mention the giant dragons that are mythical creatures, even some sub-dragon species with the blood of giant dragons have long since disappeared.

Although the New World has more active magic elements, there are still faint traces of sub-dragon activities, such as the juvenile sea dragon that Anita once killed.

But no matter what breed it is, it will be at least a fourth-level dragon when it reaches adulthood. There have never been any witnesses since the colonists arrived here.

If you want to find their traces, you may really need to go to the Broken Star Sea, where there is a large mysterious field, or even deeper into the unknown world.

Although most shadow dragons living in the Shadow Realm rank last among all dragons in terms of combat power, they are nothing more than normal fourth-level creatures when they reach adulthood.

But no matter how weak it is, it is still a real dragon, an existence that even the strongest among humans are not willing to face alone!

With this bottle of "Shadow Dragon's Blood", Kaka's bloodline transformation can definitely be done with twice the result with half the effort, and the success rate will be greatly improved.

According to the established bloodline template, even if it does not become a real dragon in the end, it will not transform into a chaotic monster.

Alvin smiled like a kind old father:

"Kaka, you are so lucky!"

"Kaka?"

Yelling in confusion, the shadow lizard, who was less than a year old, felt an inexplicable chill on the back of his neck.

call

The instinctive sense of crisis caused its body to instantly collapse and hide in Ivan's shadow, never to come out again.

Alvin was about to tease it again.

Suddenly, the voice of the herald Bess sounded in his ears:

"Report to the commander that the target has entered the predetermined area and is confirmed to be the slave fleet of Hilius Santababia Company!

According to the speed of both sides, the battle will take place in about five hours!"

Ai Wen and Milan's expressions instantly brightened.

Immediately the seabirds' vision came into view, and they saw a medium-sized fleet of ten sailboats approaching from the southeast on the distant sea.

This is exactly the goal for which all members of my Dragoon Pirate Regiment are dispatched on this trip!

"Calling the captains of all battleships to the Morning Star for a pre-war meeting."

"As you command, Your Excellency Commander!"

next moment.

On the other three fifth-level ships in the privateer fleet that went to sea together, the seagulls who served as communication terminals spoke one after another and conveyed the orders of the group leader "White Knight" to the captains of each battleship.

Obviously, Ivan has already applied this biological communication network to his privateer fleet in advance. The accuracy, distance, and reliability are far more efficient than the backward semaphore!

The three captains immediately took action upon hearing the order.

They braved the wind and rain and rushed to the fleet flagship "Venus" as soon as possible.

Although this was a collective dispatch of the fleet, apparently none of the three captains dared to neglect the commander's orders.

"Master Captain!"

"sit down."

The three captains took their seats one by one in the captain's cabin.

They are Captain William of the "Iron Bone", a pirate ship converted from a merchant ship, with a total length of 40 meters and 21 ship-borne guns;

A fast cruiser transformed from the captured Cyrus fifth-class ship, the 39-meter-long "Gladiator" with thirty-two guns, acting captain Baldwin;

And the acting captain of the fast cruiser "Gladiator", Alec, has exactly the same specifications as the "Gladiator". The fastest updated PC version::/

That's right, Alvin, who was watching the battle at the side, not only stopped the pirate members who were about to swarm in time, but also directly decided to accept the old pirate!

because.

After a little inspection of Alec and what he told about his subsequent experiences on the island, Alvin was already sure.

When he killed the great pirate Bassem, the part of the wizard's body tissue that he transplanted finally got rid of its shackles and transformed into some kind of parasite with independent thoughts.

Then by chance, he entered Alec's body and helped him repair Shen Ke in his body.

And it also gave this guy who had just been betrayed by the crew a blessing in disguise, gaining official wizard-level witchcraft support.

Including but not limited to: witchcraft shield, bewitchment, control of yellow sand, spiritual vision, etc.

The combination of the two produces the effect of one plus one greater than two. Coupled with Alec's rich experience as a pirate captain, he is a rare general!

Moreover, since he was already a privateer fleet, he didn't have so many mental mysophobia, so Ivan directly made the decision to accept him.

It’s just that he had participated in the “Moby Dick Massacre” and had a record of having the blood of Tulip people on his hands.

Alvin entered into a very strict unilateral witchcraft contract with him.

Alec, who was in a stronger situation than others, obviously had no other choice. He could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, completely selling himself to Alvin. His rights were not much better than those in a slave contract.

But Ivan then thought about it and told him about the past relationship between the two.

Alec never imagined that he would initially join this new pirate group with the famous name of "White Knight" in mind, hoping to show off his skills by sewing up Sparrow's alien limb.

While he was completely betraying himself at this time, it turned out that there was a deeper connection between himself, the White Knight, and Sparrow.

This "White Knight" not only killed the great pirate Barsem to free Sparrow in disguise, but also killed the entire crew of the "Monkey" who betrayed him.

It also gave him a chance to meet Sparrow and give him a new life. All these things, Alec really didn't know how to feel when facing this leader.

Although the contract made was extremely harsh.

But no matter from the perspective of Sparrow who lives on his left hand or from his own perspective, the leader is an irrefutable benefactor, and there is no resistance to working for him.

Besides, now that you have an organization and a strong backer, you shouldn't be like before, almost dying worthless on a deserted island, right?

Although Alec is over fifty years old, he has been wandering on the sea for half his life. He has never thought about the way he will die lying in a hospital bed in the future.

Joining the powerful White Knight will lead to all kinds of exciting events in the future.

This kind of ending can be considered a happy ending for everyone.

At this time, all the military commanders in the privateer fleet, including Gary, had arrived.

In the fleet, except for William who originally joined with his "Iron Bone" as a whole, the original crew is still retained.

Including Ivan's own "Venus" and two other fifth-level ships have undergone personnel reorganization.

Twenty-four naval elites from key positions on the "Cape of Storms" serve as pirate cadres on the three ships, plus three extraordinary captains and the necessary seagull messengers on each ship.

Although most of the new members have joined for less than a month, and Ivan does not yet have a thorough understanding of them, he already has absolute control over the fleet with this network!

Based on this, it is not difficult to build an elite privateer fleet that can fight and resist, and the first battle begins today.

Ivan glanced at all the military officers present and said:

"Navigator, let me update you on the information about our opponent this time."

He knew very well that his title as the great pirate "White Knight" was time-limited.

Even if it is not as fast as modern society with highly developed information, the popularity will gradually subside within half a year at most, and it will gradually become a symbol in people's memory from a highly talked about topic.

So we have to strike while the iron is hot and let him personally lead the team to do some big jobs!

After several tough battles laid the foundation for the Dragoon Pirates and put its operations on the right track, Ivan no longer needed to take part in small-scale plundering activities.

Although compared to this attitude of openly opposing the Cyrus people, Ivan is more inclined to keep silent and make a fortune.

If it is purely to plunder wealth, this is of course a better choice, but from a strategic perspective of the country's "Blood Loss Plan".

Even if he is covered in iron, how many nails can he drive?

Just relying on yourself and these Dragoon subordinates to go private, let alone 996, even if all 007 are there, it is impossible to injure the Silius people.

So, Alvin's plan is simple.

Spiritually, he became a flag in the Anti-Chilius Alliance, and materially, he led the trend with the huge wealth gained from plundering.

Use your actions to continuously inspire more "ambitious young people" to join in the plunder of Silius.

Let Hilius fall into the vast sea of ​​people's war.

Moreover, Ivan himself was not prepared to be completely hobbled by privateering activities. Stronger power and a wider world were his goals!

Of course, the target of the first high-profile operation cannot be a small role.

Milan stood up and handed over the intelligence documents collected in advance.

"Our target this time is the largest private company of Hilius in the New World, Santabarbia."

On the surface, the Santabarbia Company is composed of five large chambers of commerce in Cyrus, but secretly it is backed by the Cyrus royal family. In many cases, King Philip II himself is even the actual controller of the company.

As far as we know from secret channels, the royal family holds at least 40% of the equity in it, and it is also an important source of income for the royal family in addition to national income.

The company mainly conducts slave, precious metal, tobacco, sugar trade as well as piracy and colonial business. The main scope of activities includes the western part of the Southern Continent, the entire New World and the Golden Sea.

The target of this privateering fleet was a group of slave ships from the Southern Continent belonging to the Santabarbia Company.

They set out from the slave coast centered on Benin, the birthplace of Voodoo in the southern continent, and used the power of their fleet to follow the northern ring current across the entire Black Sea to the Golden Sea Islands.

That is, in the middle of the triangular trade of "guns and cloth" in the Old World, "the Anuma people" in the Southern Continent, and "gold, silver, tobacco, and dyes" in the New World.

Naturally, Ivan had reasons for choosing this goal.

Although money is not everything in this world, it can really solve most problems.

As long as there is enough gold and silver flowing into the Kingdom of Cyrus, no matter how many problems there are within this country, they can be solved one by one.

While launching the "Blood Loss Plan" from now on, we must also cut off the other party's silver supply from the source.

Mine sources, mercury, and labor are the keys to limiting silver production capacity!
