“What? You bunch of idiots! You didn’t even notice the loss of the cannon tower! What use are you to me?”

“Go and stop them, or I’ll throw all of you into the sea to feed the sharks!”

The pirate leader shouted angrily at his subordinates.

This was their last stronghold. The port was gradually being taken over, and their chance to escape by ship was lost. If the caves were breached as well, he would probably die here today.

And it seemed that the lord of these ferocious attackers was the man behind them.

“Your Excellency, what have my Black Skeleton Pirates done to offend you? Why are you attacking us without cause!?”

The pirate leader asked Ji Chen, his deep voice carrying across the battlefield.

“What have we done to offend me?” Ji Chen’s face showed a hint of curiosity. He thought for a moment and said loudly, “Actually, 1 have quite a history with the Black Skeleton Pirates.”

He looked at Ji Chen’s face with a puzzled expression, trying to remember if he had ever encountered this man before.

Seeing the confusion on the pirate leader’s face, Ji Chen grinned and said, “It was outside the Mystic Realm Gate in the Silver Islands. You chased after me then.  ”

After a moment of thought, the pirate leader’s face suddenly changed dramatically, and he blurted out, “You’re the one who stole the Black Widow!?” “Exactly!” Ji Chen snapped his fingers and smiled. “Please refrain from using the term “stole” in such a severe manner. Your men abruptly trespassed into my territory, forcing me to defend myself. 1 also seized the opportunity to retain that ship as rightful compensation. Oh, by the way, 1 also accepted two other pirate ships from you. Don’t misunderstand, those pirates on those ships chose to join me when they saw my greatness and strength. 1 hope you don’t mind.”

The pirate leader’s face grew dark.

Join? 1 don’t believe a word of it!

He knew very well that his pirates were a group of ruthless and cunning individuals. There was no way they would submit unless their lives were threatened.

Although he was furious and wanted to kill the man in front of him, he tried to calm himself and gritted his teeth, “If Your Excellency came here to pursue our previous rudeness, you can leave. After all, you have already gained three pirate ships from my Black Skeleton Pirates. These matters should be settled.”

“Although that’s true…” Ji Chen smiled. “I heard that you recently seized a treasure ship bound for a certain principality in the Northern Continent. If you hand over the valuable resources from that ship and give me the several pirate ships docked here, then 1 might consider it.”

The pirate leader’s face grew even darker as if covered in ash.

So that’s how it is. He thought Ji Chen had come for revenge, but he didn’t expect him to be after the valuable resources.

But once something entered his belly, there was no way he would spit it out.

Moreover, after the previous battle, the Black Skeleton Pirates suffered heavy losses, and their strength was only one-fifth of what it used to be.

He had planned to wait for the situation to calm down and sell off the resources, recruit new pirates, and rebuild the Black Skeleton Pirates. Giving those valuable resources away was out of the question.

Thinking of this, the pirate leader remembered the Krieg warships and felt a surge of anger.

If it weren’t for their sudden attack, the Black Skeleton Pirates wouldn’t have fallen so low!

“I’m sorry, but I cannot agree to Your Excellency’s request. I have use for these resources.”

Ji Chen shrugged. He didn’t expect them to willingly hand them over anyway.

The other four groups of troops were advancing rapidly towards their destination. It wouldn’t take long to break through the mountain caves.

Looking at the distance between himself and the pirate leader, Ji Chen’s mind stirred, and his mana surged as he began to communicate with the seawater.

Under the unilluminated sea surface, the water surged and hundreds of water blades slowly formed in the dark sky.

While manipulating his mana, Ji Chen pretended to continue the conversation to buy some time.

“We can talk about something else…,” he said.

At that moment, the pirate leader suddenly felt a chilling sensation throughout his body. The hairs on the back of his neck stood up as if a great terror was about to descend.

Danger!

Extreme danger!

If he didn’t leave now, he would die!

Years of evading pursuit and sharpening his instincts and combat skills compelled him to swiftly pivot and flee without hesitation.

He had just taken a step when a moment later, a multitude of water blades descended from the sky, fiercely piercing into the ground and cutting through the surrounding pirates, tearing their bodies apart.

The water blades were swift and covered a large area.

Even though he had escaped early, the pirate leader’s leg was still pierced by a water blade, and blood flowed freely.

But the pirate leader gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain in his leg, and limped his way into the cave.

Seeing the pirate leader fleeing into the cave like a bolt of lightning, Ji Chen was momentarily stunned, then shook his head with a smile.

He’s quite fast, I didn’t even have time to react.

“My Lord, should we pursue him immediately? Leave him to me, 1 can definitely catch up and smash him into a pulp!”

Ji Chen smiled and pressed down Anina, who was eager to try. “No need to rush. He can’t escape.”

Now that they had taken control of the port and all the pirate ships, they could turn this island into a prison with no way out.

Both the pirate leader and the pirates inside the cave were trapped, unable to escape unless there was some secret passage..
