No torture was needed to extract a confession. The pirate leader, who was paralyzed with fear, surrendered directly.
There is no map in his arms, but he knows the way and can draw it!
Soon after, a hand-drawn sea chart appeared in Cheng Mu's hands.
This chart clearly records the location of Zheng Yisao's archipelago empire.
The Apocalypse Kingdom is only a short 500 kilometers away from the nearest island.
"We can have a blast!"
Cheng Mu looked at the map and nodded with satisfaction.
From the pirate leader's mouth, he also learned a lot of secrets about Zheng Yisao.
For example, Zheng Yisao's island empire has tens of millions of residents.
Some of the islands are composed of various mines.
Zheng Yisao not only works part-time as a pirate, but also sometimes does business with other countries.
For another example, Zheng Yisao is now competing with Zheng Zhilong for a newly discovered island.
I heard that a gold mine was discovered on that island.
certainly.
Gold mine or not, Cheng Mu didn't think it mattered.
The important thing is that Mrs. Zheng is rich!
If Zheng Yisao robs other people at sea, then he should go and rob Zheng Yisao.
Not too much, right?
On the other hand, there are millions of pirates under the command of Zheng Yisao, so you still have to respect them.
At this time, Cheng Mu asked again: "What's going on with the hexagonal formation and the big mouth?"
He has no doubt that there will be gray-robed magicians, white-robed magicians, witches, knights, orcs, elves, goblins...
But why are you, a pirate under the Chinese civilization, using a foreign magic circle?
What about the infinite universe, Yin Yang Bagua and the like? Isn’t it delicious?
"grown ups."
The little pirate leader replied tremblingly: "The hexagonal array is a ritual for summoning Haikun."
"Haikun is a mysterious creature in the ocean, if you keep one in captivity."
"Then you can summon Haikun and instantly return to the place where Haikun was kept."
At this moment, he didn't know that the sea kun that Zheng Yisao kept in captivity had been killed by thunder.
"Oh? So magical?"
Cheng Mu had heard of such a huge creature like Kun.
The Kun was so big that it couldn't be stewed in one pot.
But this Haikun is not only big, it also has the function of instant teleportation.
Unabashedly, Cheng Mu also wanted to raise a few.
He originally wanted to ask Ao Yinyin if she had any information about Haikun.
But when he thought that Ao Yinyin had never been to the ocean in his life, he gave up the idea.
This fish, which has lived for hundreds of years, knows a little bit.
It is extremely inconsistent with her status as the fifth highness of the Dragon Fish Clan.
"Okay, you go down!"
Having gotten what he wanted, Cheng Mu kindly let the pirate go.
Maybe this little pirate leader is extremely vicious and his hands are stained with countless blood. But at least so far, he has not harmed the people of Apocalypse Kingdom.
The credit for contributing intelligence was worth his death sentence.
As for the previous debts, how could Cheng Mu manage so many of them?
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
The little pirate leader burst into tears of gratitude, then turned around and ran away.
Conquered by Cheng Mu's domineering spirit, he knelt down and pledged his allegiance?
Obviously not this time.
He was so frightened that he didn't dare to stay with Cheng Mu for any longer.
Killing tens of thousands of people with one blow while talking and laughing, this is the God of Death!
Soon after.
Zhang Shun and the Tianlong Army finally arrived.
Immediately, Cheng Mu informed him of the news about Zheng Yisao.
"Millions of pirates?"
After hearing this, Zhang Shun immediately muttered: "Your Majesty, our information is still not enough."
What's behind the millions of pirates? How many powerful ones are there?
How many cannons are there? What if these pirates could control the strange beasts of the sea?
This news is much more important than these millions of pirates.
"I know."
Cheng Mu nodded.
But that pirate was just a small leader, and that was all the information he knew.
If you want more information, you have to catch a big fish and come back.
"so."
He said: "Go and take a look first!"
There is Hua Mulan, the ruler of the country, and Zhang Shunzai, whose strength in the water is comparable to that of the ruler.
He is qualified to touch this pirate empire.
And at this time, it was also to show his strength.
Now this is no longer the Kingdom of China, but the Kingdom of Tianqi.
If the pirates dare to attack again, they must be prepared to die!
"Got the order!"
Zhang Shun took the order and immediately arranged manpower to prepare supplies.
Sea ships are different from horses.
Although the speed of a ship when following the wind can be comparable to that of a horse, it can reach 25 kilometers per hour.
But when sailing, it is impossible to have smooth winds every time.
Therefore, the average speed of the building boat should be about 15 kilometers per hour.
It is a voyage of more than 500 kilometers to the nearest island under Zheng Yisao's command.
That's more than a day.
Cheng Mu calculated the time.
This time I go to sea, it should take a week for me to go back and forth.
There are still more than three months until the national war begins.
Spending a month to search for the Arowana clan is just the right amount of time.
Now Apocalypse Kingdom is recovering and developing steadily.
With Zhuge Liang and various ministers around, he, the emperor, could maintain the greatest degree of freedom.
"This is the life of an emperor!"
Cheng Mu was very happy not to be tied down in the palace, not to be overwhelmed by a mountain of memorials.
In fact, there are still many Ranger players in China who are unconvinced and keep making small moves.
But this kind of thing can be solved by Yi Jian Qingxin, Dongfang Nuo and others.
Two million national guards have been steadily upgraded.
Without any interference, they spawned monsters twelve hours a day.
In four months, it seems that we can catch up with the pace of the large army.
As for the doubts in Cheng Mu's heart, they will be revealed slowly when the time comes.
Ao Yinyin has already rushed over.
After learning that she was going to sea, she threw aside her favorite new toy, Kureha Kusan.
No one can stop her passion for the sea.
"Do you want to show your true colors?"
Cheng Mu looked at Ao Yinyin, who was enjoying herself and playing in the water, and asked.
He wanted to know how big a fish that lived for hundreds of years was?
What did the koi look like before? Of course he didn't believe it.
Now in Kunming Lake, within the intermediate spiritual land.
Even an ordinary carp can grow that big in one month.
That old fish is the fifth highness of the Arowana clan and has lived for hundreds of years.
Can you compete with Kun?
"Humph! I don't want it."
Ao Yinyin felt that Cheng Mu was really too bad sometimes.
How ugly it would be if you showed your true colors!
"Why not?"
Cheng Mu followed the temptation and said: "The sea is so big, you can completely break free from the constraints, let yourself go, and be free!"
He wanted to take a look, what is the identity of the Dragon Fish Clan?
A fish that looks like a dragon? With a beard? It might be really long and ugly.
"No, no, no."
Ao Yinyin's head shook like a rattle.
She asked again: "When shall we set off?"
Only after setting off can she turn into a fish and gallop in the sea.
She and Cheng Mu had already made an agreement that they would obey Cheng Mu's command in everything at sea.
In fact, Cheng Mu was also trying to make the Fifth Highness happy.
When he went to the Dragon Fish Clan, His Highness the Fifth Prince personally accompanied him.
That scene, that pomp.
He has a lot of confidence, okay?
"When will we leave?"
Cheng Mu smiled and said, "Let's set off immediately!"
