Chapter 267: Section 55: Twin Meteorites of Silver
“Oh!”
“It’s our reinforcements!”
“It’s Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady, Captain Long Fu’s allies. Hold on, everyone, there’s hope!!”
The addition of three pirate ships greatly boosted the morale of the Justice Pirate Group.
On the other hand, the members of the Silver Hook Pirates showed signs of agitation.
Silver Hook himself had an iron-blue complexion, “How could this be…”
...
The One-eyed Elf, who could see further, quickly noticed: all three of the incoming ships bore fresh scars. A feeling of ill omen surged in his heart.
Sure enough, the next moment, Golden Chin held up a severed head and roared, “Captain Silver Hook, if you were waiting for the fleet that was sending you supplies, you don’t need to wait any longer. Hahaha!”
Hearing this news, the ranks of the Silver Hook Pirates were visibly disturbed.
The Golden and Silver brothers had been lingering in these waters for many days, relying on periodic supplies from Gold and Silver Island due to their large numbers.
So when pirate ship silhouettes appeared on the horizon, Silver Hook subconsciously thought they were his supply fleet.
In fact, their supply was scheduled for that very day.
“Damn it! Our supply fleet has been wiped out, how could they know? Could it be that this Justice Pirate Group was bait and we’ve fallen into a trap?” A storm of doubt and alarm raced through Silver Hook’s mind.
“My brother has been hiding below decks the whole time, only I knew of him.”
“If I had led the team alone, I would have completely fallen for this trap.”
“It seems that this Dragon-man youth is very cunning!”
Silver Hook stared daggers at the Dragon-man youth, who suddenly became a much more significant threat to him.
“Did the Captain seek reinforcements from these two? When did this happen? Could it be at Magnetic Island?” Zong Ge felt a surge of exhilaration.
The appearance of this reinforcement army fully showcased the Dragon-man youth’s military talent!
Zong Ge’s speculation was correct.
At Magnetic Island, the Justice Pirate Group had unexpectedly rescued an old sailor who informed them that the Silver Hook Pirates were nearby.
After obtaining this intelligence, the Dragon-man youth contemplated for a long time and discreetly contacted Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady.
Now, his caution had paid off abundantly.
The Big Chin and the Snake Lady, along with a Silver Level sea snake disguised as the Sea Snake Lady, quickly entered the fray.
Most of the Silver Hook Pirates’ ships were near the ice. The majority were docked by the ice, while a few chased the Little Bird on the open sea.
Golden Chin and the others arrived downwind; some of the Silver Hook Pirates hurried back to their ships, while others hesitated or counterattacked in panic. The lack of unified command plunged them into chaos.
Golden Chin and company, of course, didn’t give their enemies time to fully respond.
The distance closed rapidly, and soon both sides were within range of cannon fire.
Boom, boom, boom…
After several rounds of cannon fire, both sides sustained damage. The Silver Level Magic Beast sea snake cried out in pain, shedding its disguise and diving into the sea to launch a surprise attack from below.
Big Chin’s powerful cigar cannons were highly impressive, significantly damaging several enemy pirate ships, temporarily paralyzing them.
As the distance closed once more, Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady made their moves, starting a massacre on the pirates aboard the enemy ships.
Aboard Silver Hook’s pirate ship, including himself, there were only four Silver Level powerhouses.
With the reinforcements from Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady, the number of Silver Level powerhouses in the Justice Pirate Group had surged to six, outnumbering those in the Silver Hook Pirates.
Just as the Dragon-man youth had realized after a tough fight with Rou Cang and made a safe retreat, the ultimate factor in war is people!
Lacking in high-level combatants, Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady were virtually unopposed.
Silver Hook’s subordinates were fiercely loyal, with hardly any deserters, but no matter how solid the defenses or how many pirates crowded the decks, they were easily overrun by Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady.
Especially the Sea Snake Lady’s Silver Level magic, often resulting in swathes of death and injury when cast.
Listening to the screams of his crew and watching his own pirate ships lose the ability to resist, floating aimlessly on the sea, Silver Hook was beyond furious.
How many years had it been!
The Silver Hook Pirates had never before suffered such losses, as they usually played the role of the hunter.
But now, they had become prey in the mouths of others.
“You’re all going to die! All of you! Once my brother comes back, not one of you will escape!” Silver Hook shrieked.
“The Sea Snake Lady has located the opposite Silver Mage, Golden Chin, don’t get entangled. Come here, let’s kill Silver Hook first!” The Dragon-man youth yelled authoritatively, urging them on with a commanding tone.
Both Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady showed signs of displeasure at this, but there was nothing they could do about it; after all, they had been captured by the Dragon-man youth before and had signed a contract. Additionally, they both were imperial undercover agents.
Instantly, Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady plunged into the center of the battlefield.
The arrival of the two Silver Level combatants suddenly turned the tide for the Justice Pirate Group.
“This is bad!” The Silver Mage inside the cabin of the Silver Hook immediately looked pale. He sensed the fluctuations of the Water Mirror magic, “If this continues, it’s only a matter of time before I’m discovered. Why hasn’t Golden Hook arrived yet?”
In truth, Golden Hook hadn’t been chasing the Rapids for long. But with the rapidly shifting state of the battle and immense psychological pressure, the Silver Mage felt as if each second was an eternity.
Di Lou had long been feeling each second as an eternity.
Being personally pursued by Golden Hook and still having half of their forces behind, Di Lou already felt tremendous pressure, as if an invisible mountain loomed over his shoulders.
“I’m just a little Silver! Why do you hold me in such high esteem?!”
Di Lou could only silently weep tears of bitterness in his heart at Golden Hook’s “appreciation.”
At the moment, he was maneuvering the ship’s wheel while playing the short flute.
The flute’s clear and melodious sounds, when combined with his special combat skills, had a powerful diuretic effect.
It was the bard Di Lou’s famous move—the “urine flow song.”
Golden Hook’s face looked awful.
The sound of the “urine flow song” in his ears kept inducing a strong urge to urinate. But as a Golden Level fighter, he was still able to resist the song.
Others were not so lucky.
Many pirates had already started to urinate in public.
At first, most chose to stand at the ship’s gunwale to urinate, but soon, these men toppled into the sea.
The urge to urinate produced by the song was only surface-level; what was truly terrifying was how the song disturbed the fighting energy and mana within the listener’s body, causing chaos. The areas of the body most affected by this chaos were the bladder and urethra.
When urinating, the pirates’ fighting energy became disordered, causing internal injuries. Some felt dizzy and disoriented, compounded by the rapid sailing and waves crashing against the ship, so it wasn’t strange for the pirates to fall into the sea.
Seeing their comrades plopping into the water one after another, the other pirates began to urinate away from the gunwale.
Soon enough, a stench of urine wafted across pirate ships within the range of the song.
The Rapids was no exception.
The “urine flow song” did not discriminate between friend or foe.
But fortunately, as Di Lou’s subordinates, they were much more used to it than Golden Hook’s men.
They managed the ships while naturally…wetting their own pants. Each almost had a pair of earplugs in hand, and if they were lost in the chaos, they would replace them with spares.
Determined to survive, Di Lou desperately performed the “urine flow song,” pushing the power of his signature move to the highest peak he had ever reached.
Golden Hook was indeed not much affected, but others were not so fortunate.
Golden Hook had no hand in steering the ships. Even if he could help, his assistance would be limited with only him.
Therefore, Golden Hook’s pirate ship continued to follow behind the Rapids.
During the pursuit, Golden Hook did not hold back from attacking. However, even though the Fishing Ship Hook Combat Skill had a wide range, it failed to hit the Rapids.
First, the Rapids had magic devices and, combined with Di Lou’s skilled steering, was able to change course flexibly.
Second, the Fishing Ship Hook Combat Skill was not very fast, affording Di Lou enough time to evade.
Although Golden Hook was chasing the Rapids, he maintained his insight into the overall battle situation. Reinforcements from Golden Chin and the Sea Snake Lady made him frown slightly.
The resistance and strength of the Justice Pirate Group repeatedly surprised him.
He finally stopped holding back and took real action!
Golden Fighting Spirit surged through him as he used his Flying Combat Technique once again, soaring over the sea and into the sky, then plunging violently towards the Rapids.
The Rapids could only move laterally on the water’s surface, while Golden Hook, with his aerial advantage, was more agile.
Boom!
Golden Hook successfully landed on the deck of the Rapids, fighting alone.
Di Lou shouted, leading the pirates in their assault on him.
Golden Hook casually repelled Di Lou, snorting coldly at the approaching pirates from all sides: “No matter how many of you there are, it’s futile!”
The next moment, his Golden Fighting Spirit burst forth, and his combat skills were displayed. In an instant, he nearly cleared the deck of the Rapids.
The deck, once crowded with personnel, was now left with only Di Lou.
The ship’s masts, sails, rigging, and more were shattered by the impact of the fighting energy, breaking countless pieces and flying overboard.
The entire Rapids was left as though a hurricane had passed through, swept completely clean.
Di Lou gritted his teeth and leapt back, jumping into the water.
Golden Hook was a beat too slow, and by the time he reacted, Di Lou had already plunged in.
Golden Hook snorted coldly and unleashed a new combat skill.
Combat Skill—Life-hook!
He swung his fishing rod, the line shot out, and the hook quickly caught up with Di Lou, who was desperately swimming underwater.
The hook glinted with a faint light and gently hooked the back of Di Lou’s head.
The next moment, Di Lou’s body lost all strength, going limp as his power suddenly vanished.
His eyes rolled back, and without a wound on the back of his head, he was already dead!
Having killed Di Lou, Golden Hook flew back to his own pirate ship, leading his team to reinforce the main battlefield.
“Ah—!”
A scream made Golden Hook, who had just arrived at the battlefield, grimace.
He recognized it as the dying wail of his own Silver Mage.
With an advantage in the number of powerful allies, the Dragon-man youth and Zong Ge, assisted by the Sea Snake Lady, managed to find the enemy’s mage and finally eliminated them—just before Golden Hook could come to their aid.
“Very well, Justice Pirate Group, you will now suffer the most cruel and terrifying punishment of your lives!” Golden Hook’s face turned cold, his body wrapped in Golden Fighting Spirit, as if it were the boiling intent to kill in his chest.
Zong Ge, Golden Chin, and others all had serious expressions.
Silver Hook let out a sigh of relief.
The Dragon-man youth suddenly burst into laughter: “Haha! Golden Hook, we’ve been waiting for you for a long time. You’ve come back just in time to die!”
The situation had reached its most critical point, but the young Captain showed extraordinary confidence.
Where did his confidence come from in the face of a Golden Level powerhouse?
