Chapter 838
In all fairness, Fred's artistic skills are really not that good.
In the captain's room, what Fang Yuan saw the most were all kinds of handicrafts inlaid with gold and silver.
It seems that in the eyes of this pirate captain, only precious metals are real currency.
Of course, in terms of the difficulty of selling stolen goods, this idea is understandable.
"As for these oil paintings, statues, etc., they probably moved here without money, right?"
Fang Yuan found Fred's small vault with a look of disgust - a small box hidden in the mezzanine. After opening it, it was full of various gold coins and precious stones. It is conservatively estimated that there may be five or six hundred The value of Galleons.
"It's hard to fill your desires... If it was Donald, the previous navigator, he would have retired with this money long ago..."
Fang Yuan shook his head, and noticed a certain stick-shaped object inside the treasure chest, the surface was golden, and there were huge pearls inlaid there.
"Okay... I really know how to play, and I don't know if I snatched it from some unlucky lady..."
Closing the box speechlessly, Fang Yuan made a decision that he must spend the money immediately, either to increase the combat power of the Mockingjay, or to buy people's hearts.
To be honest, the Mockingjay was just an ordinary armed merchant ship, and Fang Yuan had long thought of changing the ship.
But it is a pity that with his current financial resources, it will not help at all.
However, if the pirates are lucky, it is completely a profiteering industry.
No money? It's too simple, go grab a few pennies, and you'll have everything.
"My pirate ship must be more than one. A real flagship needs at least the level of an Insman steam ironclad ship..."
Holding the scimitar, Fang Yuan rummaged around in the captain's room, but he found something that caught his eye:
【Clover Amulet】
[Materials: silver, four-leaf clover juice]
[Description: This is a talisman with a mysterious power, it seems to bring some good luck to the holder]
[Status: Sealed]
...
"The pirate system built by this deity, and this function, looks good!"
Fang Yuan stared at the gadget in his hand.
This is a silver amulet with the image of a four-leaf clover engraved on it: "The handwork is very rough and primitive, it seems to be the product of a witch's casual hand, and it is in a sealed state..."
Of course, even if Fred had ten or eight such talismans hanging on his body, Fang Yuan really wanted to kill him, he would not have any resistance.
Like a flame, how could it burn the sea? The power of a talisman, to interfere with such a huge source, is simply a dream.
But for ordinary people, it really has a little effect.
"But... seal it!"
Fang Yuan slightly felt the power contained in it, it wasn't too big, if you put it directly on him, it could wear off after a few days.
"A talisman with mysterious power, I don't know how many Galleons it can sell... I have to build a real ship for myself as soon as possible. After all, I am going to be the One Piece!"
Fang Yuan thought nonchalantly: "Wait a minute...it's too troublesome to build a ship by myself, so I might as well grab it, anyway, I'm a pirate now..."
Boom!
At this time, there was a hasty knock on the door: "Your Excellency, Captain..."
"Bill, what's the matter?"
Fang Yuan opened the cabin door and looked at his newly promoted second officer.
"The lookout has spotted the ship!"
Bill swallowed.
"Oh? Take me to see it!"
When Fang Yuan heard this, he immediately regained his spirits.
For sea voyages, it is normal to not find the target in ten days and a half months.
Even if you were lucky enough to come across one, it might be a tiger armed to the teeth.
Most of the real pirate groups are in the state of not opening for half a year, but opening for half a year.
Fang Yuan had already made up his mind to plunder Zhongliwei next time, but this time when he encountered a ship, he really fell asleep and came to give him a pillow.
"Um……"
When he came to the observatory, he picked up the binoculars and immediately saw two shadows of sails at the junction of the sea and the sky.
The opponent's ship is huge! Moreover, there are still two ships!
This is his first impression.
At this time, most merchant ships had the first requirement of operating cargo, and they would be built as large as possible while taking into account the speed of the ship, while the pirate ships were very refined, specializing in speed and the ability to quickly transport weapons.
The opposite ship came into sight, but it was one big and one small, like a merchant ship and its bodyguard, and something was wrong.
"If it is really a merchant ship and a frigate, the scale is very wrong, but more like..."
When Fang Yuan noticed something, a sinister smile appeared on his face.
At this time, as the ship approached, the line of sight became clearer.
The surfaces of the two ships are full of bullet marks and potholes, as if they have experienced a great battle. Moreover, the pirate ship is in front and the merchant ship is behind, dragging forward impressively.
‘This is a pirate ship that has just finished plundering, with its spoils! '
At this time, not only Fang Yuan, but those experienced pirates also confirmed something, with subtle expressions on their faces.
Although piracy is flourishing in this world, the biggest rule of pirates is that there are no rules! Benefits come first!
Even with the suppression of the Pirate King, it can't stop these cubs from pursuing wealth, no matter whether the wealth is on a merchant ship or other pirates.
In fact, fighting among pirates is the third most common way of death for ordinary pirates besides naval siege and merchant ship resistance.
The ship on the opposite side apparently also spotted the Mockingjay, and hoisted a skull flag. At the same time, there was also a bloody flag with a semaphore.
"Bill, what do they mean?"
Of course, Fang Yuan didn't know the flags among the pirates, so he called his second officer, "Also, do you recognize their flags?"
The pirate groups all have their own logos, which can even be reflected in the details of the flags.
"Yes...they are Tiger Pirates! Fred knows their leader..."
Bill's Adam's apple rolled: "In this sea area, they are well-deserved bosses, at least... they have already got their own names!"
In comparison, Fred's previous position in the pirate circle was that of the pirate captain who piloted the Mockingjay, and he was on a completely different level from the famous pirate captain.
One's reputation is still tied to the ship, but the other's reputation has already taken root in the pirate group!
"Very good! Pass down the order and get ready to fight!"
Fang Yuan drew out the command saber in his hand.
As a pirate, how can you not snatch a ship when you see it?
What's more, the one who robbed was the pirate who had just looted, obviously a big fat sheep.
‘Otherwise, I will be a pirate who specializes in robbing pirates in the future! But the most important thing is to establish a name for my pirate group...'
Fang Yuan thought about it slowly, and looked at the fighters gathered in front of him: "I won't say much else, I robbed the opposite ship, and the spoils are yours!"
"But...that's the Tiger Pirates!"
A timid voice came, Fang Yuan threw a throwing knife without thinking.
puff!
The knife plunged straight into the talking pirate's throat and into the handle.
"I give orders, you only have the right to obey, understand?"
Fang Yuan's voice was cold.
"Understood, Captain!"
Looking at the corpse of their companions, the other pirates trembled all over.
After all, their captain is an extraordinary person who can rob a ship by himself!
"Don't worry, boss, leave the boarding battle to me!"
The tall figure of the butcher squeezed out from the pirates and smiled honestly.
After saving the life of this subordinate and returning, Fang Yuan has already obtained his sworn allegiance to the death.
"Very good, let's bring out your wolves... I still want to take you to conquer the Nightmare Sea, the Golden Sea, and the Golden Route. What is a mere tiger pirate group?"
Fang Yuan laughed out loud.
In fact, in my heart, I am not optimistic about this wave of pirates at all.
After all, this pirate group has just experienced a bloody battle, which has severely damaged its vitality, and is facing a critical period of changing leadership.
If it is plundering ordinary merchant ships, then there is nothing to say, but directly fighting other pirate groups? I am afraid that once the battle is unfavorable, he will surrender immediately!
Therefore, he has to come to hang up.
"Prepare the sea water, I'm going to perform a blessing ceremony!"
Fang Yuan gave an order to let a group of pirates pull out their swords and daggers and dip them into a large vat in front of them.
"Under my blessing, your swords will be temporarily sharpened!"
"Your muskets will find the target easier than usual!"
"Your energy will always be stronger than that of the enemy!"
"You guys will become luckier than the enemy!"
...
Finally, Fang Yuan thought for a while, took out the four-leaf clover talisman, stretched out his hand to wipe it, a ray of light flashed, a hazy brilliance rippled on the talisman, and sank into the water tank.
Blessings such as the sharpness technique are the abilities of the Dream Soldier Lord, and the blessing of luck is that he borrowed the power from this amulet.
Although changing the previous monomer to a group, the effect will definitely be greatly reduced, but it is better than nothing.
"With the captain's leadership, we will surely win!"
Pulling out the giant knife that was shining with cold light and sharpened by one layer, the butcher showed a ferocious smile.
Bill, who was standing next to him, looked at Fang Yuan, and felt as if a stormy sea had been set off in his heart.
His Excellency the captain's identity as a transcendent has long been recognized.
But at the beginning, what the other party showed was terrifying hand-to-hand combat ability, just like a prehistoric giant beast.
Later, he healed the butcher with a bag of healing water, acting like a priest.
At this time, it has the ability of group blessing and sharp blessing.
This really made him a little puzzled, what kind of extraordinary person this boss is.
After all, according to the rumors, although this kind of mysterious powerhouse has strange abilities, it is only in one aspect, and it is definitely not as omnipotent as Fang Yuan's performance.
'Could it be...'
At this time, a thought involuntarily popped up in Bill's mind: 'This Captain, is a legendary warlock or magician? '
