Chapter 367 – Three Legendary Warships
Chapter 367 – Three Legendary Warships
Translator: Xaiomoge
Standing on the deck, looking to the east excitedly, Chrissy said to Yang Feng standing beside her: “At this speed, it’ll take us one day!”
The corners of Yang Feng’s mouth rose slightly. These days, in addition to the surrounding sea, there was nothing else to see. Looking at this monotonous scenery for a protracted period of time was unsettling.
Chrissy glanced at the Black Butcher Warship sailing alongside with a look of disgust in her eyes: “Ian, why have you taken these pirates as your underlings?”
Yang Feng spread his hands as if he were embracing the sea loftily and uttered loudly: “I’m going to become the pirate king who dominates the seven seas!”
Chrissy frowned and said: “Pirates are a bunch of damnable scumbags. Do you want to be the leader of scumbags? And what do you mean by seven seas, there are only four seas – the North, South, East, and West Seas!”
Yang Feng laughed awkwardly, saying: “Ha-ha, I was kidding!”
On the Feisuo Plane, pirate king wasn’t a praiseworthy title. Virtually 99% of all pirates roaming the seas were scumbags and degenerates who could not atone for their crimes even if they died ten times over. Whenever pirates were caught by states, they would be hung in ports as warning. Pirate king was synonymous with leader of scum in this world.
Chrissy spoke with a grave expression on her face: “Ian, I’m not joking. You’d better not get involved with pirates. Otherwise, the bigwigs of the Morrince Empire could use this as an excuse to attack you at any time. They could even deprive you of your title. Ordinary people certainly can’t touch you, but once your enemies take wind of it and attack you, you’ll be in a very passive state.”
Taken aback, Yang Feng sank into his thoughts. After a while, he said solemnly: “You’re right, I was careless.”
The God of Pirates Gethron was a member of the darkness gods.
Although pirates were human, but they were regarded as members of darkness races. Anyone found to be in collusion with pirates would be hanged from the gallows. On the Feisuo Plane, pirates didn’t dare to go ashore lightly. And once they went ashore, they would hide in secret bases.
Although Yang Feng had a very high position in the Morrince Empire, but the charge of colluding with pirates was enough to make him suffer a heavy blow.
“Pirates! There are many pirates!!”
“Sword and Skeleton Pirate King’s fleet, Black Skeleton Pirate King’s fleet, Dragon Skeleton Pirate King’s fleet! Fleets of the three pirate kings are here!!”
“...”
Quivering voices full of fear suddenly sounded, as the crew on the ship fell into a panic and looked into the distance with fear in their eyes.
Yang Feng turned around, and his complexion immediately changed dramatically.
In the distance, three giant fleets formed from huge warships came at them from different directions, encircling them.
Each one of the three fleets had more than 200 ships, for a total of more than 600 warships, completely sealing Yang Feng’s escape routes.
In the middle of each of the three fleets, there was a flagship brimming with the aura of magic. The flagship of the Sword and Skeleton Pirates was over 400 meters in length. The flagship was made entirely from black steel, and had numerous mysterious runes engraved on its hull. Numerous magic cannons covered both sides of the hull. On the deck, there were various magic cannons as well.
The flagship of the Black Skeleton Pirates was over 200 meters in length. It was dilapidated, and had a dense ghostly aura and numerous mysterious runes inscribed on its hull. It was a ghost ship full of ghosts, zombies, and other undead creatures. There were two eerie cannons on each side of the ghost ship as well one cannon on the bow and one on the stern. The eerie aura coming from the warship claimed an area of 200 meters in radius as its domain, and no ship dared to go near it.
The flagship of the Dragon Skeleton Pirates was a Dragon Bones Warship forged from two 100-meter-long dragon skeletons using alchemy, with dragon skulls forming the bow and stern of the ship. On both ends of the Dragon Bones Warship, there was a dragon breath gun inlaid at the front and the back of the ship. For ordinary people, the Dragon Bones Warship was a shocking sight to behold.
Face deathly-pale, eyes shimmering with despair, Mark cried out: “The Black Steel Warship, Ghost Ship, and Dragon Bones Warship, these are legendary warships of the pirate emperor who once dominated the four sees, and they each possess terrific fighting power. On the sea, even demigod rank powerhouses are not necessarily their match.”
“It’s over!!”
“It’s the three pirate kings!! The three pirate kings are here!!”
“What’s going on? How, how come the three pirate kings are acting together?”
“The main forces of the three pirate kings are here, we’re done for!!”
“...”
When the crew saw the flagships of the three pirate kings, their morale plummeted. The three pirate kings dominated the East Sea. Apart from the Morrince Empire, which had the Cagadilla, Dragon Storm, Sea Lightning, and the Titan Empire, which had the Fabian, Golden Swordfish, Thunder Sword, the other coastal states had no legendary warships capable of contending with the flagships of the three pirate kings.
Yang Feng’s face changed, and he barked: “Full sails! Hurry! This is an order, Mark!”
As if he had gone mad, Mark shouted with all his might: “Full sails! Full sails!!”
The sailors were elites, after all. They quickly opened all sails.
Yang Feng silently chanted an incantation, pointed with his finger, and cast the level-3 spell Gale.
A fierce wind suddenly sprang up and blew their way.
With the fearsome wind around, as if it had wings inserted, the ship of Yang Feng and his party fled towards the distance.
The pirate ship seized from the Black Butcher was left behind.
“Help!”
“Don’t shoot!! It’s me!!”
“It’s me!! Don’t shoot! I am a member of the Sword and Skeleton Pirates!!”
“...”
The pirates on the ship issued shouts and waved signal flags.
The Dragon Bones Warship adjusted its position and aimed a dragon breath gun at the pirate ship. Strange runes resembling veins engraved on the dragon breath gun lit up, and a black dragon breath suddenly shot out from the dragon breath gun and barreled towards the pirate ship like a shooting star.
The black dragon breath instantly slammed into the pirate ship, and frightening black flames swallowed the pirate ship in a flash.
Amid screams, the pirates enveloped by the dragon breath were tuned into drifting ashes before they could jump into the water.
Atop the Black Steel Warship, Axent turned to look at the Dragon Bones Warship, and his eyes shimmered with anger. He gritted his teeth and uttered: “Damn mongrel!”
The relationship between the three pirate kings in the East Sea was very complicated. When faced with the navies of the states in the East Sea, they would unite and resist together the foreign enemy. Once the foreign enemy retreated, the three major forces would engage in skirmishes and hinder each other.
Lionel clearly didn’t want to give Axent the chance to reclaim the Black Butcher Warship. If the Black Butcher Warship was sold, it could go for at least 5 million gold coins. Besides, even with enough capital, it was still very difficult to buy such a warship.
Watching as Yang Feng and his party fled, Axent’s complexion suddenly changed, and his heart was filled with regret: “How terrible, it seems that I made a great mistake!”
The three pirate king fleets came together to encircle and annihilate Yang Feng and his party. Faced with this frightening force, even Yang Feng didn’t dare to resist it head on.
But once Yang Feng took to flight, the three pirate fleets fell into a quandary. The three legendary warships didn’t dare to leave their fleet lightly. Otherwise, once another fleet with a legendary warship struck, their fleet may be destroyed.
The gap in fighting strength between fleets with legendary warships and fleets without was like an insurmountable ravine. The three pirate kings didn’t dare to leave lightly. After all, although the other warships could not compare with legendary warships, but they still had to work hard to acquire them.
The power of a pirate king could not be formed with only a legendary warship. Without other warships to make out their power, the pirate king would lose their title.
Despite feeling regretful, the three pirate fleets still kept a uniform speed as they chased after Yang Feng.
Yang Feng easily escaped the encirclement, and his eyes flashed with surprise: “They haven’t caught up? Do legendary warships only amount to this much in terms of speed? Right, too many cooks spoil the broth! The relationship between them must not be good!”
Boosted with various acceleration spells, the speed of legendary warships was fearsome. Even though Yang Feng used the level-3 spell Gale, Mark’s warship could never outrun a legendary warship. Seeing as the legendary warships hadn’t caught up, there was only one possibility. The three legendary warships restrained one another, not daring to leave their fleet.
“Mark, take the others back at once! Never mind us! We have our own means to get back.” Yang Feng tossed a magic carpet into the air and spoke solemnly.
The sky above the sea was filled with all kinds of powerful flying demonic beasts, which was why Yang Feng chose to travel by boat. However, now that he was not far from his destination, he could fly there via a magic carpet.
Mark swept the magic carpet with his gaze and responded respectfully: “Yes! Sir!”
Yang Feng jumped onto the magic carpet with Chrissy and the other women and urged the magic carpet to fly away.
Mark immediately turned and fled toward the deep sea.
