Chapter 101: Information Gap, Outcome (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Black Widow that had been stolen disappeared without a trace as soon as it entered the archipelago. They had no choice but to split the fleet into several teams to search separately.

However, in such a complicated archipelago, the person who stole the ship had probably taken the opportunity to leave.

Just as they were feeling a little depressed.

The lookout on the mast suddenly shouted.

Northeast direction! Target found!”

The pirates looked over and saw a three-masted white sailboat slowly sailing out from behind a towering island.

It was the stolen Black Widow.

Full speed ahead!”

Open fire…”

Open my ass. Boss wants us to snatch it back. If we were to destroy it, how are we going to report back to Boss?”

The two pirate ships advanced at full speed and quickly caught up.

Enclosed from both sides, the target was caught between two ships as grappling hooks shot out, latching onto the Black Widow’s hull.

Upon witnessing this scene, a glimmer of joy appeared on the pirates’ faces.

If the hooks successfully secured their grip, the two ships would remain bound together, leaving the deck open for them to board and eliminate everyone on board, completing their mission.

However, as the pirates focused their gaze, they saw something unsettling on the deck of the Black Widow—dozens of exotic warriors staring back at them.

Their eyes emanated a chilling and ruthless gaze as if they were already looking at lifeless bodies.

An abrupt, peculiar melody resounded, captivating the pirates and leading them astray.

Ding- You have achieved a glorious victory, earning 12,500 experience points. Current experience [28%/ioo%].”

When they regained their senses, they found themselves tightly bound, surrounded by the lifeless bodies of their comrades.

Confusion instantly consumed them.

What just happened?

How did everything take such a drastic turn?

At that moment, their gaze fell upon Ji Chen, standing nearby.

However, their hearts were already filled with fear. Even without words, they knew that everything was somehow connected to the man before them.

“I implore you, Noble Lord, to treat us like farts and let us go. We promise never to appear before you again.”

“After all, you have already killed so many of our comrades. Surely, you’ve vented your anger by now?”

The pirate’s face was filled with flattery, their previous arrogance completely vanished.

Ji Chen couldn’t be bothered to engage in further conversation with them, but considering they still held some usefulness, he gave them a chance.

“Surrender or die.”

The pirates exchanged glances, ultimately bowing their heads in resignation.

“I am willing to surrender to you.”

“Ding- Pirates have surrendered.”

This time, the system prompt appeared.

Jichen casually opened the territory panel, and the number behind “Pirates” in the unit column changed from 66 to 270.

Now he could finally relax.

The straightforward surrender of these pirates was a good thing. Otherwise, it would have been troublesome to bring back two intact pirate ships to his territory. He would have had to hire sailors as well.

With these two pirate ships loaded with cannons, his maneuverability increased significantly.

Ji Chen began to inquire about important information from the pirates.

“Previously, we reached an agreement with the Krieg division fleet not to attack each other and to find you, my lord, together.”

“They seemed extremely anxious, eager to find you. Moreover, we feel that the strength of those Blood Spirit warriors is gradually weakening.”

Their strength is weakening?

Could it be that once those Blood Spirit warriors leave the Blood Sea, they gradually become weaker?

It wasn’t an impossible notion.

To be several times stronger after death than before was already incredible. If they could freely roam outside, it would be truly extraordinary.

Ji Chen pondered for a moment and suddenly thought of a good idea.

He had subdued these pirates and the two pirate ships without the other pirates and the Krieg knowing.

Perhaps he could take advantage of this information gap and leave after a big wave.

As the Black Skull Sail slowly rose, a three-ship formation was formed and began to swim between the islands.

The New Moon was sandwiched between the other two ships, making it look like they had been captured.

Soon, with deliberate searching, they spotted a formation consisting of two Krieg warships.

As the New Moon, seemingly sandwiched between them, appeared, the opposing side became proactive, slowly approaching.

The Blood Spirit warriors on the deck were filled with excitement. Once they found the man Krieg had mentioned, they could immediately return to the Blood Sea.

They had already begun to feel the weakness in their bodies. If they didn’t go back soon, their souls would soon dissipate, unable to return to the Golden Tree.

Looking at the two Krieg warships, which were lacking in vigilance and had entered the optimal firing range of the cannons, Ji Chen wasted no time and gave the order to open fire.

The cannons roared, and rain of projectiles covered the warships.

Caught off guard, one of the Krieg warships sustained multiple damages.

One ship developed several fatal breaches beneath the waterline, and seawater poured in. From the moment it was hit to its complete sinking, it took less than five minutes.

Only one Krieg warship remained and was now fleeing at full speed.

The pirates wanted to continue firing the cannons, but Ji Chen waved his hand to stop them.

“My lord, why don’t we sink that ship as well? Sinking one more ship would weaken the enemy even further,” asked Sparrow, puzzled.

Ji Chen smiled and shook his head. “No matter how much we fight, ammunition and manpower are limited. Sinking ten ships would be the limit.”

But by letting this ship go, it will sow doubt and suspicion between the pirates and Krieg, causing them to turn against each other. In the end, we will indirectly sink more warships.”

Ji Chen pointed to the black skull sails on the two pirate ships. “Don’t forget, we are pirates now.”

Upon hearing this, Sparrow’s eyes lit up.

It was the pirates who did it. What does it have to do with us?

Indeed.

The escaping Krieg warship found another fleet and recounted everything they had witnessed.

In their eyes, it was just two pirate ships escorting a target that suddenly attacked them without any warning.

“Damn pirates! They are treacherous and cannot be trusted from the start!”

“They must have captured that man but didn’t want to hand him over to us!”

Although the pirates’ motive for attacking them didn’t seem very reasonable, their already fragile cooperative relationship became even more fragile.

Driven by the desire for revenge, the Krieg fleet launched a pre-emptive strike against the pirate fleet.

The pirates were caught off guard and shouted in disbelief, accusing the native inhabitants of this mystic realm of lacking integrity. They had agreed to cooperate, and now they were suddenly attacked.

Thus, both sides engaged in large-scale warfare.

Countless ships sank, and numerous casualties occurred.

The sea was littered with shattered shipwrecks and floating corpses.

Meanwhile, Ji Chen, who was spectating from the sidelines, almost burst into laughter at the sight.

Night fell.

The battle within the archipelago finally came to a halt.

Both the pirates and the Krieg fleet suffered heavy losses, with only a few surviving.

In the end, the pirates voluntarily retreated, leaving the Silver Islands with only three pirate ships. They had arrived with more than twenty ships, but now the losses were devastating.

More importantly, they gained nothing and were left with nothing but scars.

On another main battlefield, as night fell, the battle between the Bauhinia Alliance and the Krieg flagship fleet gradually ceased.

Both sides suffered severe losses.

The Bauhinia Alliance lost half of its warships, while the Krieg flagship fleet, due to fighting in unfamiliar islands, was at a disadvantage and lost three-fifths of its warships, severely weakened.

Eventually, Krieg realized that the Blood Spirit warriors were too weak and unsustainable, so they led the remaining ships and Blood Spirit warriors back to the Blood Sea.

The Bauhinia Alliance also returned to the harbor, silently nursing their wounds.

However, the conflict between the two factions was far from over.

The mystic realm gate, connecting the Silver Islands and the Blood Sea, continued to slowly revolve.

As long as the mystic realm gate remained open, Krieg would lead the fleet and return for another round.

But all of this was no longer of great concern to Ji Chen.

The New Moon, with two newly acquired pirate ships, sailed leisurely along the route back to their territory.

His mood was incredibly exhilarated..
