noon.
Noon has arrived.
A feeling of anxiety began to spread in everyone's hearts.
Because the enemy hasn't appeared yet.
The distant sea that should have been filled with enemy ships was now calm and calm.
Sometimes it is like this, the fear of the unknown is often more terrifying than the gunboats covering the sky.
Many people can't help but think, if the opponent didn't attack at this time, then where would they go?
Did they make some terrible plan and quietly log in somewhere in Bilgewater at this time?
Or did the opponent actually deliberately not attack, then repair somewhere, wait for work, and then suddenly attack when their morale was at its lowest?
Various speculations began to spread among this motley crew, and the atmosphere of uneasiness became increasingly intense.
Planck also frowned deeply. Of course, he also began to doubt and guess. After all, he was also the best when it came to deep scheming and suspicion.
But he will not make some stupid guesses such as sneaking around and waiting for work.
Because there is no place where you can log in except this port on the entire Blue Flame Island. This is a natural hazard and Bilgewater's greatest advantage. It is absolutely impossible to be attacked by anyone.
As for waiting for work, he is not afraid. He is here. As long as the opponent appears in his field of vision, he has time to assemble the army.
It makes no sense, if this is really the trick...
But, what exactly is it?
He couldn't help but look at Chen Senran beside him. Although the relationship between them was already very delicate, at least, he would still trust Chen Senran's judgment on such matters.
After all, in Planck's image, Chen Senran is indeed a wise being.
"Jack..." Plank said carefully.
But his next sentence was interrupted.
Suddenly there was a slight noise all around, and people pointed to the sea in the distance in horror.
On the distant sea, a flag appeared on the horizon.
Magic book, scales, crystal tower.
The trial of the Supreme Council has finally arrived.
This improvised fleet was still not good enough. Facing the coming war, although no one dared to escape, cowardice still prevailed.
Some people wailed in low voices, while others cried secretly.
Even the pirates who have been living on the edge of the sea all year round are pale. After all, this is different from those small-scale robberies. This is...
Real war!!!
Finally, after the flag, the hull began to be revealed. It was a tall, majestic, and novel-style giant five-masted battleship.
The huge hull was like a mountain, pressing down on everyone, making people unable to breathe.
Planck, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the enemy was here.
As long as there is an enemy, there will be victory or defeat. Even though your side is already in a lot of trouble before the war begins, don't admit defeat if you can still fight. The big deal...
"Changlang——" He drew his sword out of its sheath and faced the sea breeze like before. He shouted loudly, "The whole army——"
But the next moment, his words were abruptly blocked again.
Because, the huge ship like a hill was heading straight towards them, with a white flag hoisted on the mast.
And there was no other ship around it.
This result shocked everyone.
The last moment it was a life-and-death battle, but this moment it suddenly turned into such a paradoxical reversal.
this……
It's a conspiracy...
Or is it fact?
———————————————————
The giant battleship was still moving forward, and soon entered a place only eight hundred yards from the coast.
Eight hundred yards, the best range for coastal batteries.
All it takes is Planck to swing his sword at this moment.
The giant battleship in front of you will be reduced to ashes.
but……
"Wait a moment." Chen Senran, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.
Planck was stunned for a moment.
And just at this moment, the giant ship had already rushed within a distance of five hundred yards.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the final impact.
Is it a conspiracy or a victory?
Two hundred yards away, Gangplank's long knife was still hanging in the air.
And at this moment, a small dot suddenly popped up on top of the giant battleship.
That's...
The battleship is still moving forward.
That little dot quickly turned into a blue figure, that was...
Gangplank swung his sword instantly.
However, it was firmly grasped by a delicate hand.
"It's Fitz!!!" Miss Fortune exclaimed at the right time.
"It's Fitz!!!" Others also recognized the little blue figure.
"It's actually Fitz!!!" More people exclaimed.
Fizz, the patron saint of Bilgewater and the living god of the endless sea, how could he be on the enemy's ship?
Before this question had time to circulate in people's minds, Fitz had already jumped up high, jumped onto its trident, and said to everyone with its unique standard posture: "Hi, how are you everyone?"
As if to echo it, the next moment.
"Bang——"
"Bang——"
There were two violent sounds of water breaking, and two huge figures appeared on both sides of the giant battleship, guarding it like two patron saints.
He is a good friend of Dragon Shark and Fitz, the patron saint of Bilgewater and the Titan of the Deep Sea Nautilus!!!
"Jack, my friend, to live up to your expectations, we..." Fitz said the following words.
As soon as these words were spoken, Planck put down his sword completely. He knew that the situation was over.
"Repelled the fleet of the Supreme Council!!!"
There was a moment of silence in the whole place.
Then there were loud shouts.
"OMG!!! Did you hear that? We won!!!"
"We actually won!!!" Countless people cried with joy.
Because they survived and didn't have to die.
"Fitz!!!"
"Fitz!!!"
"Fitz!!!"
"Fitz!!!"
The entire coast was boiling, and countless people rushed out from behind the houses and cheered towards the sea.
Victory, they won.
They are free.
"Quiet, everyone, just be quiet." Fitz waved his hand to indicate silence.
The crowd suddenly fell silent.
Then it said: "The person you want to thank is not me, it should be Jack, because it was him who understood everything and made the plan in advance. Let us cheer his name together, our hero, Jack!!!"
"Jack Sparrow!!!"
Jack Sparrow.
At this moment, Chen Senran's reputation reached an unprecedented peak.
"You seem unhappy?" Miss Fortune suddenly grabbed the gloomy-looking Gangplank's hand and whispered, "Didn't we win?"
"Yes." Planck suddenly laughed, "We won."
Really? (To be continued...)
