Under the blue sky, on the blue sea, a large wooden sailing ship is sailing against the roaring cannonballs overhead.
"Boom boom boom!"
Cannonballs hit the sea like rain.
A large amount of water splashed on the deck of the sailboat.
At the same time, inside the captain's room.
"Captain! The merchant ship of the Kingdom of Duolun suddenly attacked us from behind! The first mate communicated with the other party, but they did not respond. Should we fight back now?" A young sailor rushed in in a panic and faced the gray-haired man.
The old captain said loudly.
"The merchant ships of the Kingdom of Duolun will not attack their counterparts. Let me see who is causing trouble."
The old captain got up and walked to the window, raising the telescope hanging on his chest. From here, he could clearly see the merchant ship on the opposite side.
After a moment, he suddenly put down the telescope, his eyes full of panic.
"Quick! Tell the first mate to raise the mainsail and throw away all the cargo!"
After saying that, the old captain hurried out the door.
"Captain, we will arrive at Maple Leaf Town in half a day. If we throw away all the goods, we will make nothing from this trip."
The young sailor disagreed and bent his arms to show off his muscles, "I am not a vegetarian. If those people dare to attack, they will never come back!"
The old captain who had already arrived at the door suddenly turned back, pointed at the sailor's nose angrily and shouted:
"Asshole! Stupid pig! Is this the time to be a hero? Do you know who I saw?"
"The Ripper Pirates have a bounty of 10 million beli!"
"If you can beat him, I will write a letter tomorrow recommending you to those losers in the Navy."
"Let you be the base director of a branch!!"
The old captain's voice became louder and louder, and almost the entire ship could hear his roar.
Seeing that the dividends in his hand were about to fly away, the sailor whispered unwillingly: "But I really need this dividend reward, Captain, my family has all caught cold, and they are still waiting for this in Maple Leaf Town.
I have money to see the doctor and buy medicine."
"Captain, can you discuss with those pirates whether the cargo is 50-50, or if it's 40-60...even if it's 30-70, I remember that many merchant ships have done this." The crew member begged.
After listening to the crew member, the old captain walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
"I remember your name, Henry. It's my first time to go to sea and you can think of a way to solve the problem without using force. I'm very happy. But!"
The old captain spoke faster and faster, "If it were other pirates, it would be more worthwhile to exchange money and other personal belongings for their lives. But this time the pirates we encountered were all murderers.
When a merchant ship encounters him, no one can leave alive. If he catches up, none of us will survive. Please go help quickly."
Henry didn't know about the Ripper Pirates, but everyone else was shocked when they heard about it.
The Ripper Pirates are not even strong in the surrounding waters, but they are the most notorious and notorious.
What they like to do most is to first loot a merchant ship, and then pretend to be the merchant ship and carry out multiple plunders. Whenever the navy finds their abandoned merchant ship, there are only piles of dead crew members on it.
When the first mate heard the old captain say "ripper", he immediately organized the crew to start dumping the cargo into the sea.
As the cargo decreased, riding on the wind, the sailing speed nearly doubled, and soon the pirates were far away from each other.
Just when everyone felt that they were going to survive a disaster.
"Boom!"
A cannonball hit the mast without missing a beat. The solid iron bullet directly broke the mast in half, and the canvas fell down without the support of the mast.
I don’t know if they were hit accidentally, but the next few solid bullets all hit the sailboat, smashing big holes in the plywood.
"It's over."
Looking at the fallen mainsail, the first mate turned pale and collapsed next to the cargo.
"Mr. First Mate, should we continue?" the crew member unloading the cargo asked.
Without the power provided by the main sail, even if all the cargo is thrown into the sea, the Ripper Pirates will soon catch up.
The first mate closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said loudly:
"Throw it! I'm going to make sure those beasts don't get a cent!"
"Throw!"
The crew members were touched by the first mate's words and desperately unloaded the cargo into the sea.
Holly was also infected and picked up some scattered cargo and threw it overboard.
At this moment, a voice that was incompatible with the atmosphere appeared behind Holly.
"I have no problem with you throwing all the goods into the sea."
"But you have to leave me a copy of the latest issue of "Card Knight: Legend of the Holy Blade"."
"What are you talking about?" Holly turned around and looked at the white-haired boy who spoke in confusion. He remembered that this boy and another blue-haired girl also went to Maple Leaf Town after discussing with the captain.
But at this moment, he was too lazy to care about anything. He took out a comic from the scattered comics and threw it to the boy, "Read it quickly. If you wait any longer, you won't have the chance."
"Of course." The white-haired boy chuckled, leaning against the side of the boat with the comic book in his arms and reading it with relish.
"This guy won't be so scared." Holly shook his head and continued to unload the goods.
