Chapter 141 Blood Halberd Pirates

Western Continent, Jingyue Strait.

The sea connecting the southern archipelago to the mainland is turbulent, the sky is rolling with thick clouds, and lightning strikes from time to time, illuminating the dazzling battlefield below.

Here two sides are exchanging fire in the wind and rain, constantly shelling each other's ships.

There are broken canvas, wooden boards, and damaged wooden barrels everywhere on the sea, which, along with the waves, slapped on the side of the ship from time to time, making various noises.

"Fire!"

Holding the fence beside him with one hand, the commander grabbed the binoculars soaked by the seawater, barely looking for the other side's ship in the water-smudged footage. From the metal coat of arms on the shoulder, it could be vaguely known that this was a fleet belonging to the Youngberry Kingdom.

"Sir, we can't find each other's whereabouts!" The observer's anxious voice came from the copper pipes of the bridge.

"Damn it! Keep looking!" He shouted angrily, then rubbed the telescope with his sleeve, and looked for the other person from the wind and water mist again.

Since the war between the Crimson Empire and Crancia, a large number of fleets have been mobilized to the front line to confront each other, breaking ties with each other, and attacking each other's transport ships and caravans.

In the rear, that is, between the Jingyue Strait between the Southern Islands and the mainland, the cruising fleet has decreased a lot, and now it is giving those pirates an opportunity to be rampant.

This time, it was also led by the Southern Islands, and part of the fleet was temporarily transferred to form a new cruise fleet to attack nearby pirates.

Unfortunately, the crackdown did not go smoothly. Those pirates with shabby equipment and weak strength in the past now have a recognized leader, that is, the Pirate King, Infik, also known as the 'Blood-Breaking Halberd'.

This rare Sequence 7 extraordinary person today did not join any country or organization, but started a pirate at sea.

In his own words, 'I cultivate so hard for freedom and enjoyment, and I want me to work and dream for you! ’

Then this extraordinary person started a business of looting and looting on the sea, which was much easier and more comfortable than working hard to make money. But now that he is strong and invincible at sea, he is naturally as arrogant as a soil emperor. Now the cruising fleet encountered this blood halberd pirate.

There are about twenty ships in the Youngberry Kingdom's fleet, including one main ship, seven ironclad battleships, and thirteen sail battleships. The other side is three old ironclad ships and five sail battleships.

It stands to reason that the Babyberry Kingdom should have won the victory, but in actual battles, this is not the case.

The extraordinary person of Ocean Sequence 7 can easily set off waves, or briefly dive into the water to hide and avoid, or suddenly speed up and shuttle. He is very flexible and can use all kinds of surprising tactics.

At the same time, with the help of this incomparably bad weather, undulating wind and waves and heavy rain, it blocked the sight of the youngberry kingdom fleet, hindered the opponent's attack, and just exerted its environmental advantages to the apex.

This is also the special feature of the ocean sequence. It may not be very powerful on land, but if the opponent is on the big river and the sea, it is a great advantage. The high-level ocean sequence extraordinary person can be like the dragon in the eastern legend, making waves and sweeping thousands of miles.

Bang!

Another loud bang sounded on the boat.

The cannonball shot from an unknown corner landed on the deck of the bow and smashed it through. Following the rain and waves in the sky, water continued to pour into the hull from the broken opening.

"Report sir, the cabins No. 2 and No. 3 are flooded in front!" Bad news came from the copper pipes of the bridge.

"Let the mage stationed on the ship go with the water pump and pump out the water as much as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Damn it!" After the commander finished, he hammered the table in front of him, venting his resentment.

"Send the signal and prepare to withdraw." He picked up the other copper pipe beside him and announced loudly.

It is impossible to fight now, and if it is dragged on, it will only cause useless casualties.

On the sea surface hit by the torrential rain, the strong wind blew the rain threads, hitting the body diagonally, and there was a slight pain. A dozen people were facing the heavy rain and threw themselves on the deck, taking the time to fill the gap and prevent more water surges. go in. The turret not far away was breathing flames in the rain, and the sound of the explosion set off the scattered water droplets, making a dense sound on the deck.

As the battle became unfavorable, the retreating command flag was gradually raised on the ship, allowing the ships behind to follow the flagship to the distance.

But what was different from usual was that this time the opponent was extraordinarily arrogant. Although the number was inferior to that of the cruising fleet, they still dared to pursue and fight hard, biting at the back.

So the chase continued on the sea.

Artillery fire and water splashes emerged from time to time in the rain curtain, and then disappeared in the noisy rain.

During the continuous pursuit, several sailing warships behind the cruising fleet were sunk by the opponent, and a large number of sawdust and personnel were scattered on the sea surface, some shouted for help, some clinging to the planks, drifting with the current, praying that they could survive.

Seeing that the pirate ship with the flag of the blood halberd was about to come forward again, a flame of fire bloomed in the pirate fleet, and then an ironclad ship exploded in the middle, and its broken hull fell into the water, causing several complex vortices. , sucked in a lot of pirates who fell into the water.

At this time, it was the pirates' turn to be confused. Where did the attack come from, and they didn't even find the target of the fire.

But it wasn't over yet. Another crack sounded from behind, and a sailing battleship ignited and began to sink.

"Under the sea, under the sea! They are attacking from the water!" The pirate who gave the order shouted in the copper pipe in exasperation.

"Lord Infik found

The other side, they are potentially underwater attack! "

"Turn the hull, go north, go north!" Under a dazzling order, the pirate fleet moved away from the north, gradually getting out of this chaotic sea area.

Looking at the ship that kept going away, after a long time, a round black hull gradually rose from the water, and then the hatch opened, and a figure with brown and black hair stood on the top facing the slanting wind and rain, tracking the distance. Go pirates.

"Sister Alena, we have no water bombs, and we can't fight if we catch up."

Seeing that the female captain still wanted to pursue her, the first officer below couldn't help but loudly discouraged her.

"Got it, shut up!"

Alena looks about 25 years old now, wearing a white shirt and sturdy trousers, stepping on the deck, carefully watching the wreckage on the sea and the path of the enemy.

"It seems that this time I can only achieve such a victory. Hey, if you shoot a few more ships, I don't know how many hundreds of gold coins you can get."

She put down the telescope and leaned against the fence on the deck. At this time, the hull of the ship had completely surfaced, and many crew members were busy checking and searching.

The ship she is commanding now is a special ship designed and modified by herself. The whole is like an ellipse, the outer skin is painted with black paint, and there are two stubby pipes in front of the 'water bomb' that was attacked before. out.

There is no doubt that this is a very simple and primitive submarine. It can dive into the water for a short period of tens of meters and fight for an hour, but it will definitely float up after a long time. Otherwise, problems such as insufficient oxygen and water leakage will kill you. .

But even so, such ships played a huge role in the battle, stopping rampant pirates.

"But next time the other party is prepared, it may not be so easy." Alena waved her hand to stop the compliments from the group of people under her.

"That Infik is still quite powerful, and I don't know where he came from. He was promoted so quickly. The top students who graduated from my college are only Sequence 6. Who did he learn from?"

After complaining for a while, Alena jumped into the cabin again excitedly and began to check the muzzle fired from the underwater. Naturally, what was fired was not an ordinary cannonball, but something similar to fish, but at present they It's just called 'water bomb'.

"Hey, if only Dad would support me with some more money, it's very expensive to transform this guy."

Alena knocked on the metal components, listened to the fineness of them, whether there was any cracking noise, etc., and then braced herself. Beside her, there were several alchemy apprentices curiously looking at the launch port, ready to ask a few more questions while the alchemy genius was in a good mood.

"Let's do it. After I make money, I will improve this 'Black Pig'. Later, I will go to the Kingdom's Young Moon Council and ask if I can exchange the design for a large amount of money."

"I want to be a master alchemist who is popular in the world."

Alena, who had shot down the two pirate ships, was in a good mood and was ready to take everyone back to the nearby Panlan Island for repairs.

"Let's go to the tavern opened by Sulis today for a drink." Thinking of this, the gallant captain of the captain leaned on the deck to enjoy the fresh sea breeze after the rain.
