Danitz excitedly stood on the bow of the fishing boat, waving his arms to the giant ship in the distance. After a while, "Golden Dream" put down a small boat, and the four of them paddled and quickly approached the fishing boat.
"Hey, boss!"
One of them, Sailor, who had a triangle scarf wrapped around his head and was wearing a cardigan shirt and cropped pants, shouted.
It seems that this is the subordinate of "Fourth Mate".
Danitz couldn't bear it anymore and jumped directly from the fishing boat, landed firmly on the boat, cheered, and high-fived Sailor one by one, like a victorious warrior.
"Are they?"
Another Sailor asked hesitantly, his eyes falling on the fishing boat.
Only then did he remember that there were two "guests" behind him. Danitz coughed lightly and introduced:
"These are the captain's guests. Don't neglect them. Take them back with you."
Although his tone was gentle, he couldn't hide the happiness between the lines, and he had a sense of superiority as if he had become the master.
Looking at Danitz, whose tail seemed to be raised to the sky, Angel chuckled and jumped off the fishing boat.
In order to prevent people from recognizing him on the road as a wanted criminal worth 12,000 pounds, Angel slightly disguised himself with "hypocrisy". He has black hair, brown eyes, and a round face. He is still beautiful, but only retains his original appearance. Behind her, Klein is still dressed as Gehrman. At this time, she is looking at "Golden Dream" with a wisp of steam in the distance, seeming to be studying the structure of this pirate ship.
After everyone looked at him, Adventurer, who looked cold and expressionless, picked up the box and stepped onto the boat.
"Did you find anything in your research?"
While the four Sailor were rowing hard, Angel leaned over and asked softly.
"The ship is not big, not even as big as the 'Red Skull' we saw last time. There are not many guns on both sides, but the main gun arranged on the central axis is very special. The pattern on it is a bit like an enlarged version of Charm."
Squinting his eyes to observe this strange-looking pirate ship under the scorching sun, Klein commented in a low voice.
"That's called Purification Cannon, and it's more powerful than the other forty artillery pieces combined!" Danitz, whose ears had been pricked up all the time, finally found an opportunity, came over and said loudly, "Six 'Priest of Light's will hold a prayer ceremony, and after filling Spirituality, they can fire ten cannons in a row, and each time they can sink a target of the same level as 'Golden Dream'."
Is this the trump card that allows "Iceberg Admiral" to be one of the seven Pirate Admirals with a pirate ship?
Angel also squinted her eyes and looked at "Golden Dream". As the boat gradually approached, she could clearly see the details of the powerful cannon with its barrel pointed upward. The complex symbols and patterns on the barrel were layered one after another, flowing with pure brilliance under the scorching sun.
Even if it takes three guns to kill a ship, it can defeat one against four... But I don't know which one is stronger compared to my "Calamity" Charm... She thought about it, deliberately not answering Danitz, who had a showy expression on his face, and soon found that his face fell.
"Heh."
Klein on the side retracted his gaze and sneered.
With the help of the cable, the three boarded the upper deck of Golden Dream and saw the busy Sailors, as well as Edwina Edwards standing silently next to the main gun.
Different from the beauty in a dress who looked more like a teacher in Danitz's dream, Edwina still had her long hair tied up, but she had put on a more fashionable pair of trousers and knee-high boots, which Beige Coat buckled up and had a command knife on her waist.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Gehrman, and...Miss Angelica?"
She took the initiative to greet him.
"Hello, Madam Captain, I've put on a little disguise."
Angel responded. From the corner of his eye, he saw Danitz sneaking aside, greeting the Sailor who were all looking over here, and blocking the crowd, leaving space for the three of them to talk.
Of course, he cast a vigilant gaze over him from time to time, and was a little worried that Mad Adventurer, the kind-faced and dark-hearted Ms. Wan Lian, would conflict with his captain.
"You just appeared near Bayam. Aren't you worried about Church of Storms and the military's warships?"
After slowly walking to the other side of the main gun and avoiding the eyes of Sailor, Angel asked first.
"They protect the main waterways and the vicinity of important ports. Gragus is a small port. It doesn't even have a church. It is almost half a pirate station. Within this week, Admiral of Blood, Vice Admiral of Ailment, and even the fleet of 'King of the Five Seas' Nast have passed by. It is very lively."
Looking at the endless sea in the distance, Edwina replied in a calm tone, consistent with the rumored cold attitude of Frost.
"What are they looking for around here?"
Klein interjected.
"There must be something that attracts them and me to come. This can be explained in occult terms as..."
Iceberg Admiral paused mid-sentence, as if she didn't know how to describe it. She pulled a fishing net that was drying next to the main gun mount, hung up the two corners, stretched out a fairly flat surface, and scattered the pens, potion bottles, ritual daggers and other objects in her pockets randomly on the net, making them appear in an irregular distribution.
Then, she took off the command knife from her belt and threw it into the middle of these small objects. The command knife, which weighed several kilograms even with the scabbard, immediately pressed the fishing net into a funnel shape, causing all the pens and daggers around it to roll towards it, and eventually they were crowded together.
It's like a massive celestial body causing the surrounding space and time to create Distortion... Angel stopped his scientific ideas halfway through the thought and turned to thinking about the problem in mysticism.
If this "model" is displayed, then all Pirate Admiral, and even Pirate King coming near Bayam, are all due to a new special event...
"Admiral of Blood" came because the second officer was trapped, "Vice Admiral of Ailment" is most likely looking for Helene, and "Iceberg Admiral" came because he wanted Cooperate with us to deal with Admiral of Blood... Except for "King of the Five Seas" Nast, the other three are really because of me and Klein?
"Very vivid teaching, but it has nothing to do with us."
Unlike Angel who was deep in thought, Klein answered with a straight face.
"Just a simple guess."
Edwina didn't take it seriously and replied softly. Her tone has always had the power to calm people down. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she often gives tutoring lessons to the crew on the ship.
"What do you think about 'Admiral of Blood' going deep into the Berserk Sea?"
After watching the other party take back his belongings and hang up the fishing net again, Angel continued to ask.
"He did not follow the regular route. Perhaps he did not want to cross Berserk Sea to the Southern Continent. He was just looking for something on the periphery. I have some kind of information channel that can regularly know his location. If he returns to the Rhoside Islands, you will know."
"Where is Vice Admiral of Ailment?"
"I think you should already know that she is Sequence 5's'Affliction'Demoness, and the power behind it is Demoness Sect. She is not like ordinary pirates. She is very She rarely robs passing merchant ships, and is not even murderous. She has her own ideas and pursuits, but she also works for the organization and transports abducted people. She seems to have no other missions recently and has been wandering around Bayam, looking for something."
I'm afraid she's looking for her "lover"... Angel almost couldn't hold her mouth tight, nodded, and quickly ended the topic.
After that, she and Klein asked a few more questions, such as the location of the "Mermaid" and the news of "Gazer". The conclusion they got was consistent with what Arrodes said on the ticker, which also made Angel is determined to search for "Gazer" with Hanged Man's ship at the end of the month. If he misses this clue, he may really have to wait for news from Mr. City of Silver and "Sun".
"So, Madam Captain, you invited us here not just to answer our questions, right?"
Seeing that he had almost asked what he wanted to know, Angel lowered his voice and asked.
"What I want to know is..." Edwina looked at the crew not far away, although they were chatting, but kept paying attention to the crew here, and took a few steps to the other side, "Who are you?"
Before Angel could open her mouth, she added:
"Angelica Zaki, Gehrman Sparrow, from Backlund, Adventurer who came to the sea via Pritz Harbor last month, seeking high rewards... These identities are fairly well fabricated, but they are not true enough.
"Being able to kill Bishop Church of Storms in Bansy Harbor, which is still blocked, and being able to easily deal with 'Steel' Maviti and his men, it is impossible for such a Adventurer to be unknown until recently."
It seems that she has investigated us in detail... She is Pirate Admiral, and she also has her own intelligence network in Backlund? No, maybe this is the efforts of the forces behind her...
Angel was thinking about it and was about to say a few perfunctory words when Klein beside him had already answered:
"Everyone has some little secrets, you just need to know that we won't cause harm to you... not yet."
"So, what about Kalvetua? Before His death, you made sacrifices to Him, and after His death, 'Sea God' is still responding to the devout believers."
Edwina asked.
Sacrifice?
Angel couldn't help but want to look at Klein beside him, but held back at the last moment.
Although she was a little confused, she could not expose any differences between herself and Klein in front of "Iceberg Admiral".
And she can guess that this should be the task of Mr. "Fool". Combined with his response on Tarot Club, I am afraid that "Fool" has really begun to exercise the power of "Sea God".
"Is it possible for me, you, and the power behind you to cooperate?"
Seeing that the two of them had cold faces and said nothing, Edwina was not discouraged, but continued with expectation on his face.
"Isn't the cooperation with us already in progress? "Angel interjected, alluding to the plan to hunt 'Admiral of Blood', "Also, his gloves are called 'Creeping Hunger'."
"Iceberg Admiral" must have known this from Danitz. After all, Klein showed the power of this Mystical Item when Bansy Harbor rescued the Donna family and fought with "Steel". As one of Pirate Admiral, Edwina must know the details of "Vice Admiral Hurricane"'s death. Knowing that an High Sequence Beyonder holds "Creeping Hunger" means...
To cooperate with the forces behind us, Tarot Club who has the power of High Sequence and the authority of "Sea God", you alone are not qualified...
Mr. Azik, this is the price you pay for always forgetful and coming back... Angel has no guilt at all for bringing out this Beyonder who may even have the strength of Angel Intimidation Edwina, not to mention that the other party is the favored one of "Fool".
"I understand, let's maintain the status quo for now."
As expected, the smart Edwina understood everything immediately, nodded slightly, replied, then looked at the sky and pointed to the cabin behind him:
"I've got lunch ready for you."
"Thank you."
Angel said, following Klein, followed Pirate Admiral who regained his cold expression into the cabin. The eager crew members behind him crowded forward, hesitating whether to follow, especially Danitz, who unabashedly poked his head into the cabin door and looked at the three people walking towards the restaurant.
"The atmosphere on your ship is pretty good."
Hearing the movement behind him, Angel couldn't help but comment.
She thought "Iceberg Admiral" would be proud, but she didn't expect that this cold-tempered lady would rarely twitch the corners of her mouth, looking a little... angry?
"I plan to let Danitz stay with Bayam and stay with you. As the liaison between both parties, I hope you can provide certain protection."
Pounce——
There seemed to be a dull sound coming from behind.
