"Calm down."

Just as Alfred was successfully provoked and about to pounce on Anderson, a majestic, unquestionable voice suddenly came from behind him. It echoed across the deck and resounded in everyone's hearts.

Alfred's body jolted, and clarity instantly returned to his lake-blue eyes.

A tall man had spoken. He wore a dark blue naval uniform, with a stern face and bulging muscles. Standing above them, he coldly looked down at the pirates below.

The moment the pirates saw him, they felt as though he were some important figure aboard the ship. An immense, inexplicable fear arose within them. They did not dare meet his gaze and could only lower their heads.

The man pushed forward a white-gloved palm and solemnly declared, "Imprisonment!"

An invisible barrier instantly formed. Centered on the pirates, a transparent cage enclosed them within!

"Attacking a warship is a crime."

"Piracy is a crime."

The naval officer said sternly, "The guilty shall be punished!"

In an instant, the order aboard the entire ship changed. The pirates seemed to feel an invisible pressure, as though they had become criminals trembling beneath the harsh judgment of the law, awaiting their final trial.

"A Sequence 5 Disciplinary Paladin?"

Anderson's expression changed slightly. Numerous fire crows instantly formed around him and shrieked as they flew toward the naval officer.

Boom!

However, all the fire crows crashed against the transparent wall, exploding into countless sparks before dispersing.

"Soldiers, take up your weapons!"

The burly naval officer shouted, "You are the glorious Kingdom Navy! Don't disgrace yourselves before pirates!"

"Yes, Captain!"

His voice echoed across the entire ship. The sailors, who had been panicking due to the pirate assault, immediately calmed down and shouted in unison.

The Loen military began its counterattack. It was not only Anderson; pirates on the other ships
