Like the "rumor", this is the third flagship of Pirate Admiral that Klein has boarded. Of course, the same is true for Angel, who is hidden behind the rumors and seems to have been deliberately concealed.

Compared with the ordinary "Black Death" and the "Golden Dream" with a cannon on the top of the small boat, this "Future" is more like It is a Old Era classical sailboat, but the hull is surprisingly long, and it is not equipped with a corresponding number of masts and steering sails. The deck is even more engraved with mysterious symbols, as if the entire ship is a huge Charm.

This reminds Angel of the Golden Cannon of "Iceberg Admiral". Obviously, this "Future" also uses some kind of mysterious Ritual Magic to operate, rather than an ordinary ship.

Of course, compared to the "Queen Anne's Revenge" that can enter Spirit World, this ship is at least still at a level that ordinary people can understand... She withdrew her scrutinizing gaze, looked at Cattleya standing on the bow, nodded slightly and said:

"Thank you for coming to pick us up, Ms. 'Admiral of Stars'."

She did not call the other party "Hermit" because there were not many people present.

In addition to the three members of Tarot Club, there were also many Sailor standing on the deck. Eyes focused on Angel. Her undisguised face and body outlined by slim-fitting trousers stood out. The part stayed for a long time, and the Charm ability of "Affliction" Demoness, even if it was not released deliberately, could still stun these Sailor who have been wandering at sea all day long.

Taking a step forward, Klein, who was blocking most of his view, took off his hat and bowed politely:

"Good evening, ma'am."

He could feel a lot of eyes shifting from Angel to himself. Soon, these Sailor recognized the "famous" Gehrman, and low-pitched exclamations and discussions reached his ears.

"Vice Admiral of Ailment..." "The night of 'Golden Dream'..." "Keep an eye on him..." and other words made Klein almost unable to hold on to his disguised image of "Adventurer".

I'm afraid that until he gets a real wanted order and a high reward, this kind of rosy rumor will always be with him... He muttered helplessly.

In front of the two of them, "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya, with black hair shawl and deep purple pupils, was also looking at the two members of Tarot Club and the new passengers of "Future".

"Empress", Angelica Zaki, has a reward of 23,000 pounds. It is said that he killed the bishop of Church of Storms, so he was wanted. Later, because of the destruction of "Vice Admiral of Ailment"'s City Breaker and Black Death, the reward gradually increased. It is most likely Beyonder of Sequence 5... She recalled the information collected in her mind, her eyes gradually darkened, the tall woman with a beautiful face in front of her gradually turned into the white Aether Body, and the endless darkness in the depths.

On Aether Body, a deep red buried deep in her chest, a deep yellow on her left wrist, a deep right wrist, a bright yellow on her waist and a fiery red between her fingers lit up one by one, followed by spots of light that spread all over her body, like stars in the sky.

Five pieces of Mystical Item, countless kinds of Charm, ammunition... The dazzling light made Cattleya look away and look at the "world" Gehrman Sparrow. He was soon stunned by the various brilliance on the opponent's body, and he squinted his eyes before regaining consciousness.

Two "Pirate Admiral" level Beyonder... Without Future and other Sailor, I don't have enough chance to win against any of them.

Cattleya quickly assessed the strength of the two of them, the depth in his eyes disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Good evening, Mr. Miss Satchi, Sparrow."

She also did not mention the code name Tarot Club, but instead referred to the two people's public identities.

And even these identities are probably fake... She thought, raised her right hand, and gently turned it around her head.

After receiving the order, "Future" quickly set sail, made an arc in the shallow sea near the mouth of Nast Port, and headed east.

The light of the lighthouse tracked the ship until it disappeared into the sea fog. Sailor and the pirates on the dock breathed a sigh of relief and discussed the destination of "Future" and the identities of the two people who boarded the deck in a gorgeous way.

The white feathers on the woman's head are reminiscent of the Angelica Zaki on the wanted poster, which was called "Ship Breaker" by the pirates. However, no one can be sure because the face cannot be seen clearly.

But for another man, everyone quickly reached a consensus:

The Great Adventurer Gehrman·Sparrow is about to harm the last woman Pirate Admiral!

Future's speed gradually increased, and a damp and cold wind blew on the deck. Angel and Klein followed Cattleya away from the bow and walked towards the inner cabin.

In the night, ships of various sizes gradually approached the flagship, vaguely guarding it in the middle, but keeping a certain distance.

Stepping onto the middle deck, Angel found that there were not many Sailor here, at least less than the "Golden Dream" she had been to. Of course, it was possible that the Sailor on board Future were well-trained and most of them stayed at their posts, but they denied this by looking at the visitors unscrupulously.

As if seeing her doubts, "Admiral of Stars" explained:

"This time the only ship going to the east of the Sonia Sea is the 'Future', and most of the Sailor here will stay on other ships, leaving only the necessary manpower."

In order to spread the risk and avoid being annihilated due to carelessness, of course, we originally wanted to find the mermaid, rather than want to have a naval battle with other fleets... Angel nodded, understanding why the other ships did not get closer, and then followed the other party and came to the entrance of the cabin.

Well, a well-built man walked out of the cabin. He was wearing overalls that were rare on the ship. His shirt cuffs were pulled down to his elbows, and his exposed skin was covered with hair.

Behind the three people, a shadow Distortion loomed up from the deck, and a figure appeared inside. His nose was straight, but his face was full of exhaustion, as if he had contracted some serious illness.

This seemingly enemy-like formation made Angel wary. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Cattleya beside her, who introduced with a slight smile:

"First Mate of Future, Frank Lee," she said, pointing to the overalls, and then looked at the man appearing in the shadows behind her, "Second officer, Heath Doyle."

"Toxin Expert" Frank Lee, 7,000 pounds; "Bloodless" Heath Doyle, 7,600 pounds... Angel He quickly found the wanted posters corresponding to the two of them in his mind, and based on their bounty, he deduced that the two of them were most likely Beyonder from Sequence 6. Then he took the initiative to smile and say hello:

"Good evening, gentlemen."

After a brief introduction by Cattleya, she learned that Frank Lee was originally a believer of Earth Mother, but because he focused on advanced "hybrid technology", he caused many dangerous accidents and was almost sent to Tribunal by the church. Finally, he left the church and joined "Star Pirates".

And "Bloodless" is the unlucky and Luck "Rose Bishop".

The unlucky thing is that as an ordinary person, he was accidentally sprinkled with the configured "Rose Bishop" Potion, and was infected and penetrated by Potion. Luck was because he successfully After surviving the effects of Potion, he was directly promoted to Sequence 6, becoming the only normal person who did not go through the "Listener" stage and did not go crazy because of the whispers of "True Creator".

"This situation is even lower than the probability that I successfully crossed bull cows and wheat in my first experiment so that they could grow directly out of the ground!"

Frank interjected from the side.

What, the hybrid you were talking about turned out to be such a fantasy?

Angel was a little stunned. She looked at Cattleya and found that the other party also had a look of helplessness. Apparently First Mate's various "experiments" on her had passed through psychological denial, anger and other attitudes and entered the final stage of "acceptance".

As "Bloodless" Heath re-Shadow Lurking, Cattleya continued to lead the two people into the cabin and to the superstructure of the deck, where there is the captain's cabin, a small restaurant dedicated to the captain and senior personnel, and several sets of empty guest rooms.

"Mr. Sparrow, your room is on the left side. Frank will take you there. The small restaurant is open all day, and there is always hot food. You can go to dine at any time, or have Frank deliver it to your room."

She pointed to the side of the corridor and said, then looked at Angel:

"Miss Satchi, your room is opposite my captain's cabin. My Sailor Chief Nina lives next door to you. You can find her if you need anything."

Wait...Angel subconsciously wanted to refuse, but from the corner of his eye, he saw Klein nodding silently, and then said nothing.

After a moment, a woman who was half a head taller than Angel, with blond hair tied into a ponytail and fair skin, who seemed to be of Feysac descent, came closer at the call of Cattleya.

"Captain."

She said hello to "Admiral of Stars" first, and then looked at Angel.

"Hello, Angelica Zaki Miss," she nodded lightly with a perfunctory smile on her face, "I will take you to the room."

At this time, Angel remembered the nickname of Sailor Chief, "Underwater Killer".

Being able to do Sailor Chief on Pirate Admiral's flagship, she may not be as harmless as she seems... Angel thought, followed Nina, and walked to the other side of the corridor.

"By the way, your room, well, there won't be any arrangements for prying eyes."

Behind the two of them, Cattleya seemed to remember something and added.

It always felt like she had thought of something crooked... Well, it wasn't really crooked... Angel was awakened by this instruction. Various thoughts flashed through her mind, and she followed the tall Sailor Chief to the single guest room, which was not spacious but was neatly tidied.

She suddenly felt a touch of warmth in the palm of her right hand, as if it were attached to delicate, warm skin. When she saw Nina taking out the keys and silently Door Opening, she pretended to steady her wide-brimmed hat, stretched out her right hand, palm facing inward, and focused her eyes on it.

The mark left when Oravi Island used "Anne's Blood" emerged from the skin. The sword and shield overlapped, and the regular symbol in the center of the scale flickered slightly, as if someone was looking at her and looking around.

After a while, the warm feeling faded away, and the mark disappeared under the skin again.

Anne?

Angel was a little dazed. She touched the position where the mark appeared with her fingers, but there was no other movement, as if the flash just now was just an illusion.

But she knew clearly that Anne, who had signed a contract with her and reached a "mutual assistance relationship", was indeed connected to her through the mark at that moment.

Could it be that "Ghost Empire", which frequently appears in the Sonia Sea and attracts Church of Storms, the military and pirates, is actually "Queen Anne's Revenge"?

She couldn't help but look towards the outer porthole of the suite, as if there was a huge Ghost Ship on the dark sea outside the window.
