Chapter 332 Successfully Landed on the Island
At the simple dock of White Whale Island, five pirates were rowing a famous wooden boat, catching sea fish in the waters near the shore.
Although there are several farmlands on the island, they are basically mainly planted with vegetables. For the pirates living on White Whale Island, seafood is one of their main sources of food. As for food such as bread and wheat, they need to be regularly supplied from outside.
They originally thought that today was also a day of paddling and fishing, but they didn't want to be interrupted by the scene they suddenly saw.
"Quick... Look!"
A pirate pointed at the sea in the distance and shouted in panic.
His partner looked over and saw that on the sea, four large ships were breaking the waves towards White Whale Island.
As pirates, in addition to boarding ships to fight, they are also very good at identifying noble flags.
"It's a royal warship!"
"There are also flags of the Wushan family and the Dennis family!"
"The noble warship is here to wipe us out!"
The five people rowed the wooden boat towards the shore in panic, trying to reach the shore first and then find a place to hide.
Unfortunately, they were a little far from the shore. After landing, the nobles' ship was less than a hundred meters away from them.
At this moment, the white griffin took off into the air, and Missy landed from the air.
Look carefully, Karada was holding the claws of the griffin and landing in a strange way.
Whoosh~
The griffin soon came to the sky above the five pirates, and then dropped rapidly. When it was only a dozen meters above the ground, Karada let go, and the whole person fell from the air and landed steadily in front of the pirates.
Thunder flashed on the knight's sword, and there was no fighting skills. The ordinary thunder fighting spirit knocked down the pirates who rushed in front.
"If you don't want to die, kneel down and surrender!"
The remaining four pirates knew that they were defeated, and immediately fled in all directions, but at this time, the griffin in the air circled down, brushing over the pirates' heads at a very high speed, and the strong wind that swept through quickly knocked these pirates to the ground.
On the royal warship, Roning looked at the landing battle that was as simple as the dock, and he sighed for a moment.
On the way here, he imagined the scene of landing on White Whale Island.
For example, they would be attacked by fierce arrows from pirates on the shore, and they might take the means of forcibly jumping ashore in order to break through the enemy's defense line.
For this reason, Roning took out all the level 4 ice cone magic cannons he had robbed before, and cooperated with the level 6 magic cannons on the royal warship to minimize the difficulty of the landing battle.
But he never thought that the landing battle would be so simple.
He even suspected that perhaps without the cooperation of Karada and Missy, they would not encounter any resistance.
As the four large ships approached the simple dock, Roning and others walked down from the ship one after another.
At this time, Baron Melonica, who was obsessed with cultivation, showed up at the right time. When he came to the dangerous area, he started to work.
Roning couldn't help but laugh and said, "You finally came out of the room."
Melonika was in a good mood, "I've made some progress. After things here are settled, I'll find a place to practice."
Roning thought to himself, this is really a crazy practitioner.
He began to look around, focusing on the simple dock under his feet.
Such a simple dock is made entirely of wood. It doesn't take much time to build, it's not difficult, and the construction cost will be relatively low.
Perhaps before the official dock of Wubei Territory is built, Roning can consider building such a simple dock as a transition.
In this way, Wubei Territory will have the conditions to train the navy, and it doesn't have to travel thousands of miles to borrow Dennis Port for training.
Roning came to Karada, and at this moment Knight Missy also drove the griffin to land from the air.
"You have a good cooperation."
Ronin said with a smile: "Have you been trained?"
Missi did not answer, and Karada said awkwardly: "It was just a spur of the moment."
Next, Ronin and others interrogated several captured prisoners and had a certain understanding of the situation on White Whale Island.
It turned out that a day ago, the leader of the pirate group took several members on three large ships and left White Whale Island, saying that there was a special operation. The other members on the island did not know when the leader would come back.
After hearing this, Luqi of Pointed Horn City could not help but say: "This is not a special operation at all, it is clearly abandoning the island and leaving."
Ronin nodded.
It is obvious that their leader has inside information and knows the actions of the royal family in advance.
In other words, there is someone behind the White Whale Pirates.
"Vic." Ronin shouted.
Captain Vic, who was waiting outside, heard the shout and immediately trotted over.
He is very respectful to Ronin now.
The prisoners captured in Niujiao Bay are still in captivity. What awaited them was either being sent to the gallows or being sent to the exchange to be permanently labeled as slaves.
Only Vic and two other experienced crew members escaped punishment without any injuries.
Vic knew that all this was the credit of the young noble in front of him.
"Sir, Vic is happy to serve you!"
Ronin asked: "Does the White Whale Pirates have other bases?"
Vic shook his head: "I have been to sea many times in these years. In addition to hijacking ships, I have also gone to other island ports for supplies. I don't have a second base."
Luo Ning thought for a while and ordered: "Then ask Baron Lucci to arrange some people to look after the ship. The remaining people will go to the pirates' living area and capture them all."
Everyone had no objections to this arrangement, and soon the arrests of the remaining pirates began quickly.
This is troublesome but not dangerous work.
It took the knights half a day to finally bring all the pirates and slaves on the island together.
After interrogation, it was discovered that there were only three extraordinary knights left on Beluga Island, and they were all junior knights. The rest were all ordinary people.
David and Tom, led by Vic, searched several key wooden buildings.
"Sir, we have searched these places. Except for some scattered silver coins and copper coins, there is not a trace of a gold coin."
"Besides that, I found some wheat grains in the warehouse. I heard that the pirate leader moved a lot when he left, but maybe he didn't finish loading because he didn't have enough time."
Ronin nodded.
The leader, White Whale, took away all the core members, ships and important belongings of the pirate group. It seemed that he was ready to abandon this base area.
Luo Ning originally planned to stay here for two days to wait and see, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.
"Go and collect information on those prisoners and see if there are any useful talents, especially craftsmen, crew members, etc."
Luo Ning said: "If there are any, keep them and bring them back to Wubei Territory."
"Yes, sir!"
Wubei Territory lacks people who are familiar with the sea. Although this group of people living on Beluga Island is an island, it is undeniable that they are relatively familiar with the sea.
Luo Ning can definitely bring them back to Wubei Territory.
Not to mention it is of great use, but it can at least provide some guidance experience for the knights, guards and others in Wubei Territory.
As for whether they had spies from other nobles, Luo Ning didn't care.
As long as this group of people cannot reach the core position, it will be fine. (End of chapter)
