Su Xiao looked at the Duke in front of him. Although he had been at odds with the Duke before, this was the first time he had met him.
There are too many elite pirates under the Duke, nearly 2,000 of them. If this were the Duke's strength, they would not be on an equal footing with the other three big pirates.
If we speculate this way, the Duke has used external forces. The most likely thing is that the other party has joined forces with one of the Twin Towers, the Empress or the Black Witch. The Black Witch has basically not participated in the fight for the Horn of the Sea King, so it seems that only the Twin Towers are left.
·Empress.
If this is the case, then everything makes sense. The other party is not here for a decisive battle, but for negotiation. They brought so many people here to seize the initiative. Otherwise, when our cursed people are fighting with the remnants of the West Sea King,
The Duke led his men to join the battle group.
The atmosphere was almost frozen. Even the elite pirates behind the Duke felt nervous in such a big scene.
Su Xiao raised her hand and looked at Brigadier General Murray on the right. Half a kilometer away, Brigadier General Murray stepped forward.
"Sir Brigadier!"
Brigadier General Murray's adjutant had anxious eyes. It was extremely dangerous to get close to the two opposing parties at the moment.
Brigadier General Murray ignored his adjutant. He moved forward at a not too fast pace, and finally stopped a dozen meters away from Su Xiao and said, "Bai Ye, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Um."
Su Xiao was very satisfied with Brigadier General Murray's decision. Brigadier General Murray was a very good collaborator and was not fooled by the immediate interests.
Before the war, Su Xiao and Brigadier General Murray had reached an agreement. Brigadier General Murray was responsible for preventing the entry of third-party forces. In return, the territory of the West Sea King was taken over by Brigadier General Murray.
Brigadier General Murray's current withdrawal is not to escape from the battle, but to temporarily abandon the territory of Xihaiwang. This is the result that Su Xiao wants.
The Duke has reached a cooperation with the Twin Towers Empress, so the Duke has brought so many elite pirates, many of whom are under the Twin Towers Empress. This is the situation Su Xiao least wants to see.
After the Duke arrived, he did not take action immediately. This meant that the other party wanted to talk and did not want to engage in a melee. The reason was that some of the pirates he brought with him could at best support the scene. If a fight broke out, these people would immediately leave.
Su Xiao will not let the Duke and the Twin Towers Empress continue to cooperate. The threat is too great. What has to be admitted is that the current Doom is unable to fight against the two big pirate forces at the same time.
The way to break the cooperation between two parties is very simple, just throw a big cake. If you give this big cake to only one person, will the other person be jealous after seeing it?
The territory of the King of the West Sea is a big cake that neither side can refuse. As for whether the two parties will share it equally, please don’t joke. The Duke’s territory is adjacent to the territory of the King of the West Sea. On the other side of the Duke’s territory is the territory of the Twin Towers and the Empress.
.
If the Twin Towers Empress gets half of the territory here, then the Twin Towers Empress' territory will sandwich the Duke's territory. Can the Duke tolerate it? Let other big pirate ships sail freely in his waters? As long as
The Duke is not mentally retarded and would not allow this to happen.
The Demonic Sea is very large and can accommodate the four overlords and the ‘giant’ in the south, but the ‘Xi Ge Sea Area’ of the King of the West Sea cannot accommodate the two overlords.
Brigadier General Murray also saw through this, so he chose to withdraw. He had nothing to lose this time, and a head-on fight with the current Duke would be too costly.
"The King of West Sea is still so brainless."
The Duke shook his head, took out a piece of horn from his arms and threw it towards Su Xiao.
[Tip: You get Neptune’s Horn (1/3).]
Counting Su Xiao's existing two sections of Neptune's horns, he has been able to assemble the complete Neptune's horns.
"The territory of King Xihai belongs to you."
Su Xiao put away Neptune's horns, and the situation turned out to be smoother than expected. In other words, the Duke had plotted against the Twin Towers Empress, and he had done so clearly.
Su Xiao looked at the remnants of King Xihai's men. They could no longer continue fighting. The Duke and the Twin Towers Empress were both present. If they fought again, they might be left here today, and the gain would outweigh the losses.
The content of the conversation between Su Xiao and the Duke was very simple, but it made the two pirate leaders behind the Duke feel chilled. These two people were the Silver Snake Xiulu and the Heart-Shaking Leticia. They were the twin towers of the Empress.
My confidant, I'm here this time to help the Duke hold up the scene.
Heart-Self Leticia lowered her head, the black twin tower tattoo on the back of her hand shimmered, and her aura began to change. It was the Twin Towers Empress who temporarily occupied this body.
The Twin Towers Empress looked around. She was called by her subordinates and didn't understand the situation yet.
"Are you here? If there is nothing else, take your people and leave my territory."
The Duke spoke without looking back. Upon hearing his words, the Twin Towers Empress' eyes showed chills.
"Sir, let's withdraw."
The silver snake Xiulu next to the Twin Towers Empress spoke.
"Why?"
The Twin Towers Empress was very confused. Her plan had not yet been launched, so she withdrew like this?
"Sir, we cannot face the Doom and the Duke's raiding party at the same time."
"You didn't tell me earlier."
The Twin Towers Empress is certainly not stupid. She can figure out what is going on without much information, but there is one thing she cannot understand. Is the Duke really satisfied with what he is getting now?
Thinking of these, the Twin Towers Empress's blood pressure soared. Not only did the 'boat of friendship' between her and the Duke capsize, the Duke also stabbed her when she was kicked off the ship.
"Duke, you did something to my Neptune's horn, right? Did you send someone to steal it? Wasn't it those water ghosts from the Doom?"
"right."
"That's good to admit, that's great."
After leaving these words, the Twin Towers Empress led people to retreat to the island. She did not leave, but prepared to wait and see, waiting for Su Xiao and the Duke to fight over the uneven distribution of the spoils.
"Bai Ye, you have captured the horn of Neptune, what are you going to do next?"
The Duke spoke casually. No matter what conflicts he and Su Xiao had before, now that both parties have the same interests, they can cooperate. This is pirates.
"For collection."
Su Xiao stood up and walked towards the island. Now that he had obtained three pieces of the Neptune's horns, he was going to find a suitable place to attract the strongest sea beast, and then collect its essence. The strongest sea beast was full of treasures.
But before that, Su Xiao had to solve another serious problem. King Xihai had already taken care of it, so it was time to deal with another time bomb.
The Doom sailed away and headed straight for a certain sea area.
After sailing for about three hours, the surrounding sea wind roared and a storm was coming.
"Baha."
Su Xiao took off a lantern from the door of the captain's cabin. Baha caught it and flew up, hanging the lantern on the bow of the ship.
After repeatedly confirming that no one was following around, the Doom sailed into the black mist vortex. On the way back to Minuang Island, be sure to guard against enemy surprise attacks. The Doom was very vulnerable at this time.
The lower half of the broken blood moon hung high in the sky, and the Doom docked at the dock, cursing people to escape from the ship. A battle had just ended, and they all wanted to take a rest.
Su Xiao jumped off the boat and walked towards a wooden house. When he opened the door of the wooden house, he saw the face of the Shanghai Devotion on the wall.
"The one blessed by the sea."
"Another cursed person died in battle?"
"right."
"For them, it's a relief."
When the Sea Blessed One spoke, its mouth, which was like a tree, split open to an exaggerated degree.
Su Xiao took out 14,100 gold coins, and 282 cursed people were killed in the battle. This time, she returned to Minguang Island to replenish the number of cursed people.
After paying the Demon Sea gold coin, Su Xiao returned to the deck of the Doom. For about half an hour, more than two hundred cursed people of different appearances stood on the dock.
The crew of the Doom is getting stronger and stronger as they fight. When these cursed people break free from the black mist, they will start to compete for the few qualifications. When they fight with powerful enemies later, those with average strength will die in battle, and those who can survive,
Basically, they all have outstanding strength.
"Get on board."
As soon as Su Xiao stepped on the deck under his feet, all the cursed people turned into black shadows and submerged into the ship.
The Doom sailed into the whirlpool of black mist, and when it reappeared on the Demonic Sea, it was already pouring with rain.
The raindrops slapped on Su Xiao, bringing a cold feeling, and he controlled the cursed man to close the sail.
The sky in the storm was filled with darkness, huge raindrops poured down, and the angry waves surged wildly. The demonic sea seemed to be angry and intended to engulf everything on the sea.
A flash of purple lightning slid down silently, and after a moment there was a loud click.
On the sea swept by raging waves, a black shadow passed through the water. A few nautical miles behind, a figure riding on a wooden board and holding an oar was pursuing him. It was Gluttony, and he hadn't given up yet.
Gluttony's mental power was connected to a blood bead beside him, and he could feel that the enemy in front had slowed down.
"Finally you can't bear it any longer, that's all."
Gluttony half-crouched on the wooden board, and his hands reached into the sea. After pondering for a moment, he waved his hands, and his whole body and the wooden board under his feet rushed out.
Gluttony was paddling on a wooden board. In the pouring rain, he vaguely saw something in front of him. It was very big and looked like a big ship.
Ahead, on the sea next to the Doom, a cursed man pressed one hand on the hull. It had arrived home, and the enemy behind it was still chasing.
Around the Doom, black shadows appeared in the sea water, heading straight in the direction of Gluttony.
Gluttony, who was paddling in the water, lowered his body and looked around. He realized that something was wrong.
"It seems that you are chasing the wrong person, Yinghuo, what did you see before you died?"
The wooden board under Gluttony's feet gradually stopped, and he felt that his teammate Yinghuo was playing him with his life.
