Chapter 926: Chapter 714: Disciplining the Wolves
On the sea at night, the Vegetable Basket Pirate Group and the First Navy Fleet detachment engaged in a fierce battle.
Cong Mang took the lead, wielding a Golden Level long stick with a fierce momentum.
Bei Jia stepped forward, clad in heavy armor, intercepting Cong Mang.
Both Golden Level warriors used tough tactics, fighting to the death without retreat.
At this moment, the Big Guy’s eyes emitted a blue light as he roared and lifted the deck, jumping out.
He had already been descended by the Fishman youth, his subjective consciousness shrinking into a ball, quietly watching his father assist him.
“Little guy, feel it well, I’ll teach you how to fight.” The Fishman youth spoke secretly to the Big Guy.
The Big Guy, frightened, weakly agreed.
The next moment, the Fishman youth controlled the Big Guy, mobilizing Black Iron Level fighting energy, concentrating on the legs and feet.
With the fighting energy’s boost, the Big Guy’s jumping ability soared!
The Big Guy leaped mightily, jumping hundreds of meters far, landing accurately on a Kingdom warship.
The Kingdom navy was in a firefight when suddenly a loud alarm sounded. They looked up to see a shadow covering the round moon in the sky.
The huge shadow brought out a strong wind noise, suddenly descending.
Boom!
The Big Guy, like a giant stone thrown from a catapult, smashed onto the warship’s rear deck.
The rear deck immediately collapsed, causing the Big Guy’s lower body to sink down. The whole ship slightly tilted upward due to the Big Guy’s weight.
The navy soldiers, well-trained, quickly gathered forces to encircle the Big Guy after a brief chaos.
The Big Guy roared continuously, waving his arms and moving his legs, running from stern to bow, leaving chaos wherever he went.
Any navy soldier daring to confront the Big Guy head-on was sent flying with broken bones and tendons.
The deck kept shattering, broken wooden pieces flying everywhere.
The Big Guy charged unopposed, breaking the warship’s mast and smashing through structures on the deck.
The Big Guy’s consciousness shrank into a ball, trembling with fear at the terrible scene before him. His body, under the Fishman youth’s control, became a massive killing weapon on the battlefield.
In less than a minute, he had fought from the stern to the bow, splitting the first deck in half with a huge trench.
The navy suffered heavy casualties, areas covered with corpses.
Clang.
The battered and broken deckhouse finally collapsed due to the violent shaking of the ship.
“Amazing!”
“He just got promoted to Silver Level, yet he’s stronger than most Golden Levels.”
“Once he stabilizes at Silver Level, his physical quality will greatly improve, eventually surpassing my Dragon-man form.”
Currently, the Big Guy’s physical quality couldn’t match the Dragon-man youth’s. But the Fishman youth could already clearly sense the future.
A warship had lost combat effectiveness under the Big Guy’s rampage.
The Fishman youth wasn’t bloodthirsty and immediately controlled the Big Guy to jump onto another navy warship.
Under his control, the Big Guy wreaked havoc, causing chaos and misery among the navy forces.
Cong Mang and Bei Jia’s confrontation yielded no results.
The Vegetable Basket Pirate Group was outnumbered by the navy and slightly at a disadvantage.
But with the Big Guy’s active performance, the pirates quickly suppressed the navy.
“What’s with this little giant?” The navy was troubled but couldn’t see through the Big Guy’s details.
The Big Guy, Hong Zhu, and Da Dou were all cloaked in deception magic. To outsiders, the Big Guy was just an unfamiliar little giant.
“We must take down this troublesome guy!” The navy quickly reached a consensus.
While the Big Guy was wreaking havoc on a warship, they used cannons from surrounding ships to launch a rapid volley at him.
Alchemy Cannon—Snow Ice Light Cannon!
A large amount of Snow Honey was loaded into the cannon, then rapidly compressed under the effect of the Alchemy Array, turning into a pure white stream of light, fired out.
Thick, straight beams of white light shot precisely at the Big Guy.
Under the Fishman youth’s control, the Big Guy moved extremely agilely, dodging and dancing, cleverly avoiding most of the white beams.
These beams turned into ice pillars on the deck instantly.
A few hit the Big Guy, causing his body to sway.
The Fishman youth had to consume a large amount of Black Iron Level fighting energy to resist the cannon’s damage.
The consumption of Black Iron Level fighting energy was intense, but it was exactly what the Fishman youth wanted. Soon, he extracted new fighting energy from all over the Big Guy’s body.
Since the Big Guy was promoted to Silver Level, the new fighting energy was not Black Iron but a qualitatively changed Silver Level.
With gradually acquired Silver Level fighting energy, the Big Guy’s combat power rose considerably.
Now, the navy had even less means against him.
Seeing the increasing damage caused by the Big Guy, Bei Jia was getting anxious.
He knew if he didn’t deal with the Big Guy, the sea battle would be lost. He took multiple heavy blows from Cong Mang, spitting blood, yet he still charged towards the Big Guy.
“Dad, there’s a bad guy, very scary!” The Big Guy’s soul shouted in panic.
The Fishman youth, however, brightened up: “Little guy, the most valuable part of this practice battle has come. Don’t be afraid, you will be scarier than him in the future.”
He controlled the Big Guy to advance without retreat, proactively attacking Bei Jia.
Bei Jia, clad in heavy armor and at the Golden Level, wasn’t someone the newly promoted Silver Level Big Guy could easily clash with.
Bei Jia struck, immediately pressing the Big Guy into a disadvantage, stabilizing the battlefield.
Cong Mang came over to intervene but was immediately stopped by the Fishman youth’s transmitted voice.
The Fishman youth did not reinforce the Big Guy but tried his best to use only the Big Guy’s own combat skills to maneuver around Bei Jia.
After several rounds of battle, Bei Jia had beaten the Big Guy, leaving him bruised.
The Big Guy’s physical quality was robust, able to recover quickly and very resilient.
Under Bei Jia’s strong pressure, the Fishman youth controlled the Big Guy with increasing ease, continually gaining insights and making the Big Guy’s combat moves more solid and proficient.
The excellent physical condition of the Big Guy, combined with the Dragon-man youth’s extraordinary combat talent and learning ability, allowed the Big Guy’s battlefield performance to improve rapidly at a visible rate.
Bei Jia also felt the enemy’s terrifying speed of improvement, secretly alarmed.
He took a deep breath, dispelled any fluke mentality, truly valued the Big Guy, and didn’t hesitate to consume fighting energy to unleash powerful combat skills.
The Fishman youth chose to temporarily avoid the sharpness.
When evasion was impossible, he also used combat skills for defense.
Bei Jia unleashed maximum attack power, causing the Big Guy to retreat repeatedly, coughing up a lot of blood, and breaking several ribs.
Seeing the timing was about right, the Fishman youth called Cong Mang to intercept Bei Jia and controlled the Big Guy to apply Healing Divine Technique on him.
The Big Guy bathed in Divine Light, completely recovering within seconds, and his combat strength returned to the initial state of the battle.
“They even have a Divine Officer?!” Bei Jia’s eyes almost popped out after seeing this scene. After the shock, a strong chill spread in his heart.
Such powerful Healing Divine Technique indicates that there is at least one Silver Level Divine Officer on the pirate ship.
If one-on-one, Bei Jia definitely wouldn’t fear such a Divine Officer. But in reality, the Golden Level Cong Mang is mass killing, and the Silver Level young giant is full of resilience, progressing rapidly.
“We can’t keep fighting, retreat!” Bei Jia decisively ordered a retreat.
But how is it possible to retreat?
The Fishman youth personally took action.
In the next second, waves surged on the sea, rolling up thousands of splashes.
The seawater formed whirlpools, holding the warships in place, making their steps arduous.
The Divine Arts were already powerful, but with terrifying amplification by Divine Level bloodline, they immediately changed the battleground environment. A regular Divine Art in the hands of the Fishman youth suddenly became a battlefield-level force!
The navy failed to retreat, their fighting spirit plummeting. Bei Jia voluntarily stayed behind to cover the army’s retreat.
His spirit was commendable.
Reality was touching.
Half an hour later, the battle came to an end.
The Vegetable Basket pirate group won a great victory, encircling and attacking most warships, leaving only one or two escaping, which the Fishman youth voluntarily ordered to let go.
Bei Jia was captured alive, carried by the Big guy, and brought before the Fishman youth.
Seeing the Golden Level Fishman youth, and then seeing the same-grade Da Dou, Bei Jia’s face showed shock, followed by bleakness.
The Fishman youth attempted to interrogate him, but Bei Jia, a typical soldier, had a firm attitude and was unafraid to die.
The Fishman youth did not wish to humiliate him, and appreciated Bei Jia’s voluntary act of staying behind.
“Take him away, don’t cut his food and water; treat him well. He’s a very good sparring partner.” Fishman youth ordered.
Bei Jia, clad in Heavy Armor, focused on defense. He possessed a Golden Level seahorse mount, originally a Heavy Cavalry.
The Fishman youth planned to keep him as a sparring partner for the Big guy.
He withdrew the Descent Technique, allowing the Big guy to regain control of his own body.
“Pain, pain, pain!” The Big guy cried out, his wounds expressing a strong sense of existence.
“These wounds were specially left for you by dad.” The Fishman youth smiled as he comforted his son.
“You need to feel these pains, adapt to them, and let your body remember all this, so you can grow faster.”
The Big guy tearfully replied, “But dad, I… I feel uncomfortable.”
“Keep going!” The Fishman youth gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, gently patted the Big guy’s shoulder, and taught him earnestly, “These minor wounds and pains are far better than if you died in battle.”
The Big guy thought, “I don’t want to fight like this at all.”
But seeing his father’s expectant gaze, he pursed his lips and did not cry out in pain anymore.
The Fishman youth sighed inwardly.
The future is unpredictable, compared to various vast forces, the power of the survivors is still too weak. Every member needs to grow significantly!
The reason for training the Big guy this way is because of the Big guy’s own high bloodline, with great potential to be tapped.
“This time, the quest for Duel Godhood is fraught with danger. If anything happens to me in the future… I hope Xiao Gui can have more survival capabilities.”
Da Dou stood by, witnessing the entire process.
He was very optimistic about the Big guy and fully supported Fishman youth’s approach.
This is the world of the strong.
The giant’s world is the same.
To become strong! This has been Da Dou’s belief since childhood.
Da Dou didn’t find the Big guy pitiful at all, but envied the treatment he received. He knew the situation of the Big guy, and the Fishman youth’s training method was simply tailored to him, really suitable!
Before Fishman youth left, he made arrangements for follow-up tasks.
“Send a message to the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, saying that our Vegetable Basket pirate group captured Bei Jia.”
“Have them gather ransom.”
“Is this nearby group the Thorny Pirate Group?” He pointed at the Sea Chart and inquired.
“Yes.” The newly promoted First Officer of the Vegetable Basket Pirate Group quickly replied, “Their pirate group leader was killed by Feng Lian, and the newly risen Golden Level is very cautious, inviting us to join for joint actions against White Mist Port not long ago.”
White Mist Port is a small port.
The Fishman youth laughed, and his Dragon Claw clenched, “Join forces with them and take the opportunity to annex them.”
“Our people are a bit few, aren’t they?”
What kind of pirate talk is this!
This statement made everyone’s eyes sparkle.
Everyone looked at the Fishman youth, all wondering: is the Fishman strong man in front of them originally a seasoned pirate?
Cong Mang licked his lips, got excited, and eagerly volunteered, shouting loudly, wanting to follow the ship.
The Fishman youth listened quietly for a while and suddenly slapped Cong Mang away.
Poof.
Cong Mang spat blood and a mouthful of teeth, fell on the deck, unable to get up for a long time.
Or rather, he didn’t dare to get up.
Cold light flickered in Fishman youth’s eyes, he spoke slowly, “Is it you listening to me, or me listening to you?”
Cong Mang hurriedly kneeled, with his forehead against the deck, “Of course, I listen to you, boss!”
His agitated heart was instantly calmed by Fishman youth’s ruthless slap.
The strength of the youth made Cong Mang completely obedient.
Pirates are wolves of the sea. Newly subdued wolves cannot be indulged.
Show your teeth?
Even if you show your teeth to others, such behavior is an offense to the leader.
I haven’t allowed you to show your teeth yet!
You have to listen to me.
The Fishman youth who returned from the Ocean Nest, became more precise in understanding human nature. Training the Big guy and simultaneously disciplining Cong Mang, this wolf.
The pirates fell silent, completely recognizing who the real leader was.
As for Cong Mang?
He actually thrived on this setup!
Through the Divine Country Descent Technique, Fishman youth took Cong Mang away from the sea and returned to the Ice Sculpture Royal Capital again.
It’s not over yet.
He secretly informed Snowbird Port and asked Sanda to connect with the Snowbird Port City Lord, requesting the latter to do a small favor—once again spread a message.
The message content is that Long Meng greatly appreciates Long Fu, personally instructed him, and also gifted Combat Skill and alchemy tools.
