Eight hundred and sixtieth IX sun(1/2)
"Ghost Ship! Blackbeard!"
Major General Jackson's pupils shrank.
He was prepared for Fang Yuan's appearance, but he still couldn't help but exclaim when he looked at the moonlight, quietly anchored on the sea with a little illusory ghost ship, and the black beard walking with Fang Yuan.
Even though I have heard of many rumors about ghost ships, in the eyes of the major general, this is still some unreliable legend.
At most, he has some extraordinary power, can control some undead spirits, and scare ordinary crew members to death.
It was not until now that he saw the sailboat that seemed to come from the underworld and the coldness that came into his soul that he realized that those bloody legends were by no means joking!
Moreover, the Blackbeard, who was walking with Fang Yuan, was the pirate governor of the Nightmare Sea. Although he had lost his power, his reputation was still well-known.
No matter what, he couldn't figure out how the Purgatory Pirates recruited this pirate governor with the current strength of the Purgatory Pirates.
"my daughter!"
Viscount Quia was about to shed tears at this moment: "I have agreed to your conditions, and I will return my treasure to me!"
As he said that, he waved his hand repeatedly and asked his sailors to lift an ancient box.
"Gips!"
Fang Yuan nodded, let Gipps step forward, and opened the wooden box with a squeak, revealing layers of thick leather inside.
The moment the box opened, the sound of waves seemed to sound in Fang Yuan's ears, making him know that the viscount opposite him gave the real thing.
At this time, the other party was just a panicked father in his eyes.
‘Okay… I’m too proud of Insman’s ability to rule the nobles at this time…’
Fang Yuan smiled and then looked at Mr. Gipps.
At this time, the old man stroked the leather, as if he was stroking his lover's skin, his eyes shining and he couldn't let go of his love.
"I can guarantee...this is the real sea god skin!"
After a moment, Mr. Gipps reluctantly put down the materials in his hand and said in a sure voice.
‘At the beginning, most of the materials were used to cast the Sea God, and the remaining scraps were so big. Could it be that the former Sea God was a sea giant?’
Fang Yuan thought for a while, but Viscount Kuya, who was opposite, thought that these kidnappers were not satisfied with the ransom, clapped their hands and asked the servants to send them a few heavy boxes.
After opening it, it was filled with jewelry.
"Haha... Governor, I'm so polite!"
Fang Yuan smiled silently, but the benefit of delivering it to the door for free naturally did not need to hesitate. He ordered people to accept it directly: "In fact... except for the skin of the sea god, we only have one insignificant request... that is to pass through the Strait of Solomon..."
"No problem!"
Viscount Queya nodded quickly.
"A pleasant answer, she is yours!"
Fang Yuan pushed his right hand slightly, and Elizabeth couldn't help but step forward a few steps and was held in his arms by Viscount Quai.
"Father……"
At this time, the female prisoner finally couldn't bear it and started sobbing softly.
"Protect the Governor!"
Major General Jackson sent a signal, a row of naval troops stepped forward, protected the governor’s father and daughter to the back row, and then walked to the front: "Roch, the commander of the Purgatory Pirates? Do you want to go to the East through the Strait of Solomon?"
"It doesn't seem to have much to do with you?"
"How can it have nothing to do with me as the supreme military commander of the Strait of Solomon?" Jackson smiled coldly: "As long as I order the turret to open fire, even the ghost ship will become a target when it crosses!"
"Governor, what do you think?"
Fang Yuan looked at Viscount Kuiya.
"Although I promised you, Jackson's words make sense... I can't directly send the orders to soldiers every month!" Viscount Quai's eyes flashed and turned back to the old fox.
"Is that? That's a pity!" Fang Yuan shrugged: "It seems... we can only meet again at Miss Elizabeth's funeral!"
"What do you mean?"
Viscount Quaiya and Major General Jackson took a few steps back vigilantly.
In the distance, several balls of flames rose, which were very conspicuous in the dark night.
That's the flame that comes out when the steam chimney is running!
This admiral had long brought the fleet around and formed an encirclement!
"We have no intention of fighting the Royal Navy of Insman... Lord Viscount, you might as well take a look at your cute daughter's neck. Well... how to say, before letting her go, our people added a small insurance on it without authorization!"
Fang Yuan said gently.
"What?"
Viscount Quaiya opened Elizabeth's collar in a hurry, and immediately saw a circle of green on her neck, spreading along the blood vessels like a plant's roots, forming a collar.
"What's this?"
Jackson's face darkened.
"I'll introduce it. This is voodoo. Ms. Kasenya, who comes from my subordinates, is a witch... The voodoo prepared by this voodoo can poison an adult mammoth within ten seconds only if you only need a little bit of the size of a fingernail... I would like to add that only they know the recipe for all voodoos. Even if you find another witch, there is absolutely no antidote!"
Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders.
"Okay! Major General Jackson, order your people back!"
Viscount Quia suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Jackson's shoulder.
"Abide by the order!"
It was not until then that Major General Jackson realized that he seemed to be despising the Governor.
He was hiding under the mask of a loving father and qualified bureaucracy, and there was another face.
"I understand... I will give you the right of way to the Strait of Solomon, and swear in the name of the Queen!"
Viscount Quia said coldly: "But... only this time!!!"
"make a deal!"
Fang Yuan nodded: "We will pass the level tomorrow. You can send a boat to follow us. Before leaving, I will hand over the antidote! Happy cooperation!"
"snort!"
Viscount Quia snorted coldly, untied his coat, put it on Elizabeth, and slowly left behind surrounded by a group of navy.
"grown ups?!"
At this time, the witch Kasenya stepped forward: "At my level, I have not reached the point where I can modulate unique voodoo..."
"So the green on Elizabeth's neck is just a circle of hard-to-wash pigments!" Fang Yuan shrugged: "But as long as Viscount Quay doesn't know... And we have also investigated that there is no witch among Solomon at present, and one night can't let them find another to break this lie, right?"
"You are such a cunning villain!"
Blackbeard witnessed all this and couldn't help but draw a conclusion.
"I take it as your compliment, Mr. Blackbeard!"
...
The next day, noon.
The citizens of Solomon's colony suddenly saw a strange scene.
Two pirate ships, under the 'escort' of ten steam iron armored ships and more style battleships, passed through the Solomon Strait.
This scene immediately attracted countless exclamations.
Even the pirate prince had to let his ships disguised as ordinary merchant ships before they could pass from here, and they could not lose any taxes they had to pay.
Otherwise, you can only force it to hit.
But those layers of turrets and strong fortifications will definitely cause the pirates to lose a few teeth.
Apart from that, you can only take a long way.
However, this approach is very uneconomical and full of dangers.
In the unknown route, various natural disasters and sea monsters emerge one after another, and there are only one ten merchant ships sailing. Therefore, even merchant ships with pirate governors as the backstage can only honestly make transactions with the Solomon Strait.
Fortunately, Insman didn't dare to tear his face too much. Generally, he checked that something was not too banned and let it go.
Even the taxes collected are not too much.
This is to be a long-lasting flow. Secondly, pirates are not easy to mess with. Not to mention the possibility of forcing them to attack in a hurry, there are also many important supply points controlled by pirates along the way. For example, if the Pirates' Royal City is too much, the other party can make up for it from other places, and no one can benefit.
But today, it was the first time that two large ships with pirate flags sailed past the Solomon Strait in a pretentious manner. And, when Insmann had just won a brilliant victory.
Suddenly, countless disguised pirates whistled, and the name of the Purgatory Pirates Group was completely launched in the Golden Sea.
...
"Wait, that current!"
On the deck, Fang Yuan stared at the treasure map in his hand.
To be continued...
