"How's it going? Can you accept my conditions now?"
On the dark deck, before the blood rain in the sky had finished, Wang Zhifan asked an almost sluggish figure standing not far away.
He was asking the captain of the Great White Shark. The so-called conditions were naturally the requirements he had made before. The requirements could be said to be very harsh, but after the scene just now, someone's mind must have changed.
However, it was somewhat different from what Wang Zhifan thought. The captain who was extremely shocked by him did not choose to surrender because of the great strength he showed, nor did he insist on asking everyone to continue attacking him for the last time. Instead, he suddenly started shouting as if he had lost his mind.
"Monster! Monster! Everyone run! The monster is coming!!!"
I saw this man shouting in disbelief, as if his spirit had become abnormal. He turned around in a hurry and rushed away from Wang Zhifan. He stumbled towards the rear of the pirate ship and rushed towards the ordinary pirate men who were supposed to be protected by him.
"Why does it feel like he's not acting... could it be the reason why I killed that big shark instantly?"
Wang Zhifan When seeing this situation, he subconsciously thought that the pirate captain was pretending to be crazy, but his perception was so powerful now that he soon realized that there was a high probability that this man was not pretending to be crazy, but that he was actually mentally abnormal.
This was mainly because he sensed that the person's aura was currently highly disordered, not much different from a half-dead person, and the acting was too realistic to this extent.
And he also somewhat understood what was probably going on when such a situation suddenly occurred. It was probably affected by the sudden death of the big shark he had summoned to attack him.
The big shark could not be a mortal thing just by looking at its size, and it could jump out of the sea and attack as soon as it heard his instructions. Wang Zhifan didn't believe that the two of them didn't have some kind of close spiritual connection, so it was possible that because one of them died suddenly, the other was instantly greatly affected.
"No matter what happened to you... die!"
At this time, Wang Zhifan didn't have much thought to figure out what this pirate captain was, and he didn't want to communicate with a madman or a high-level actor, so he immediately activated his Great Dream Saber Scripture power and slashed at his back with a knife!
Great Dream Saber Scripture's Dreamflower Saber Light suddenly appeared again, and a dream-like brilliance flashed across the deck of the pirate ship. Then everyone around heard two thumps, and the pirate captain's running body, which was almost 20 meters away from Wang Zhifan, was separated from his body in an instant, and he fell and rolled on the deck.
"Isn't it really an act?"
Wang Zhifan was actually a little surprised to see that he had killed this powerful enemy with one strike. Although he had used Dreamflower Saber Technique just now, he had also prepared some back-ups in case the opponent was struggling to the death, but he obviously overestimated the opponent. This guy was really insane.
After killing the leader, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but look at the other two figures standing around him, namely the one-eyed old man with two swords and the strong man in the iron tower. These two were probably the higher status among the remaining pirates.
"You two, are you willing to accept my conditions?"
He turned slightly and continued to ask the remaining two people on the dimly lit deck.
Among them, the one-eyed old man holding a pair of swords answered his question without much hesitation. Apparently, this old man was the first to recover from the shocking scene of strangling the sea monster with his sword.
"Old man, I am indeed no match for you, and I can't even hurt you, but I am already very old. Forget about being a dog. If you want to kill me, just do it quickly. Old man, I will lose in the blink of an eye."
This old man is very single. He knows that he can't beat Wang Zhifan but he doesn't have any fear at all. He has a certain demeanor that he doesn't care about death.
"Me too."
The armored man on the other side, who was more than two meters tall, immediately spoke in agreement. His voice matched his image quite well. It was both thick and deep, not quite like the tone that a human could produce.
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and took off his helmet, revealing a rough outline that was quite different from a regular human head on the dark deck, and then added:
"We Crocodile Man respect the strong, and you are far stronger than me, so I can leave my life at your disposal, but we Crocodile Man also value personal dignity. I would rather die in your hands than live as a dog."
"..."
After listening to the somewhat tragic speeches of these two pirate masters, Wang Zhifan was a little speechless for a moment, because he realized that what he had just said to the captain was not quite right. Maybe he was too motivated to fight at the time, and his words were a bit too strong.
So at this time, he thought for a moment, and after the two people finished speaking, he opened his mouth to smooth things over:
"Since your captain has been killed by me, the request I just made to him must be modified. I can let you live without insulting your character, but you and the remaining people must obey my instructions in the next few months and help me complete some things, otherwise I will not continue to be so polite..."
Wang Zhifan briefly stated his request, which meant that he wanted them to do things for him as a condition for him to let them go.
"What do you want us to help you with? Old man, I am just an old pirate who makes a living at sea. I am good at robbing and killing. I may not be able to do other things well."
The old man with one-eyed dragon and two swords then asked Wang Zhifan for details.
"Let's find a bright place to talk in detail."
Wang Zhifan did not answer him immediately, but turned and walked towards the bow of the pirate ship, where he knew with his strong perception that there was a captain's cabin.
The two people behind him hesitated for a moment and followed him. They didn't make any sneak attacks in the process, because they already knew that the young man in front was much stronger than them. Even if they made a sneak attack at this time, they would have no chance of winning, and they would only get hacked to death by the opponent.
So a short while later, Wang Zhifan stepped into the captain's cabin of the pirate ship with the two of them, and then stretched his finger towards an oil lamp placed on the wooden table in the captain's cabin. Under the puzzled eyes of the two people next to him, a flame suddenly appeared on his finger, and he lit the oil lamp directly, and then the flame on his finger disappeared instantly.
This flame ability actually comes from the Excellent Tier ring Hell Demon Dragon Ring that Wang Zhifan wears. It is the ability of Become Fire that comes with Hell Demon Dragon Ring. He is currently using this ability just to light the lamp, but this simple and trivial thing made the eyes of the two people following him slightly startled, and they felt that they could not understand the powerful young man in front of him more and more.
However, Wang Zhifan himself did not pay attention to this aspect at this time. After lighting the oil lamp, he sat down on the captain's big chair, and then started cooperation discussions with the two backbones of the pirate ship.
"First of all, I want to know who among you is the second in command?"
Wang Zhifan was the first to ask this question under the light.
"The second in command has been killed by Your Excellency, that sissy in the floral dress."
The strong man in the iron tower, who was wearing iron armor but had taken off his helmet, quickly replied.
Currently under the illumination of the captain's indoor oil lamp, Wang Zhifan can see that this big man is indeed no ordinary human being. His head is large and elongated, his face is covered with hard yellow-brown scales, his mouth is protruding and full of sharp teeth, and with the pair of terrifying vertical pupils, he looks like the anthropomorphic face of a large crocodile.
"Oh? The one who played the recorder before was the second in command? Wasn't it you two?"
Wang Zhifan was slightly surprised by this. He originally thought that the second in command was either the old man in front of him or this big crocodile man.
"That guy is a relative of the captain, so he became the second-in-command, but his skills are not bad."
The one-eyed old man then added.
"Well, now do you two have the confidence to manage the remaining pirates? Or to manage some of them, I don't need too many people."
Wang Zhifan was too lazy to talk too much about them and started to get into the topic.
"Of course there is no problem. Strength is the most important thing in the sea. The two of us are enough to suppress the remaining people, but we can only suppress them for a while. I can't guarantee that it will take too long, old man."
The old man with two swords and one eyed dragon replied without much thought.
"Haha... In addition to violence, we also need to give them sweetness, right?"
Wang Zhifan laughed twice and understood what was going on.
"That's it. It's okay for the two of us to fight, but we don't dare to guarantee it when running a pirate ship. Not every ship on this sea can be robbed. Choosing a target to start with is a university question..."
When the old man said this, he glanced meaningfully at Wang Zhifan in front of him with his one eye, as if to say that their original captain had not chosen the target well this time, which led to disaster.
"And there is one more troublesome thing, that is, our Great Horned Shark has been killed by Your Excellency. Without it, we may not be able to fight other pirates as smoothly as before."
The old man then mentioned another huge loss suffered by their pirate group today, which may be even greater than the sudden death of the captain.
"Don't worry, these are not problems, I have solutions. What I want to know now is, have you been to the Storm Sea? The things I need you to do need to go there."
Wang Zhifan glanced at the two very different faces illuminated by the light.
"Storm Sea is the place where I was born. Why are you going to my hometown?"
The armored man with a huge and ferocious crocodile face immediately replied to Wang Zhifan with some curiosity, his cold vertical pupils showing a bit of alertness.
"You were born in the Storm Sea? Then do you know where Forbidden Fruit Island is?"
When Wang Zhifan heard this strange big guy say that his hometown was in the Storm Sea, he suddenly became interested. He felt that this guy was probably not talking nonsense. After all, it looked like the type that could live in the water. It was possible that Storm Sea's harsh environment was not a problem at all to him.
"I'm sorry, sir, I've never heard of an island by that name."
The crocodile-headed iron-armored man then shook his head a little awkwardly. His neck was thick and covered with hard scales, so it was not as easy for ordinary humans to do this.
Wang Zhifan watched him closely while he answered, and his powerful perception told him that Crocodile Man had just appeared a little confused, which meant that he had really never heard of Forbidden Fruit Island.
"What about you, old man?"
Wang Zhifan then looked at the one-eyed old man sitting next to him. In his perception, the old man was slightly surprised just now, which meant that he should know something.
"I have heard of an island with this name, but that was a long time ago. I was still very young at the time and my left eye was not blind yet..."
I saw a hint of memory in the old man's one eye.
"At that time, there were rumors that if you eat the fruit on this Forbidden Fruit Island, you can get the blessing of Sea God. It is said that it is hidden in the deepest part of the Storm Sea, and only the luckiest people can find it. I have been working hard on this for a while, but Storm Sea is too big and dangerous, so I had to give up in the end."
The old man inadvertently revealed some information that was a bit new to Wang Zhifan.
"Can you get the blessing of Sea God after eating Forbidden Fruit? It's a bit interesting... maybe Forbidden Fruit is an additional reward for this copy?"
Some dungeons will produce some special good things, which are benefits that players can obtain beyond the settlement of the dungeon, so Wang Zhifan is a little concerned about this.
"This Forbidden Fruit you heard about, does it glow?"
He then asked the old man in front of him this slightly weird-sounding question because he had obtained such information in the previous seaport town.
"No."
The old man immediately shook his head.
"The Forbidden Fruit I heard is blue, which is the symbolic color of Sea God, but Sea God does not control light, and it is impossible for its creations to shine."
He refuted Wang Zhifan's statement and his stance was very firm.
"Okay... Old man, I think we are suitable for cooperation. After you find Forbidden Fruit Island, you can go to the island and eat Forbidden Fruit to get the blessing of Sea God. Maybe you can become younger and your eyes can be restored."
Wang Zhifan said to this old guy with a smile on his face at this moment, because he felt that this person might be of great help to him in this copy.
"And brother Crocodile Man, since you were born in the Storm Sea, you should be familiar with it, and our cooperation will be quite pleasant."
He then looked at the giant iron-clad man next to him who looked a little confused with his big and ferocious face.
"It turns out that you want us to help find Forbidden Fruit Island..."
The old man basically understood when he heard this. His one eye immediately revealed a bit of helplessness, and then replied, "This kind of thing is not easier than letting us rob Queen's Port. I had been searching for that island seriously for a long time, but in the end I couldn't find anything. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to help you achieve your purpose..."
