Pirate: I am the boss

Chapter 17 The Strange Pirate

The next morning, Carlos summoned his confidantes, who were actually members of the mafia who had been with him for a long time, and their trust was deeper than that of ordinary mafia members.

I told them about my plan to leave the Iron Island and go to Maglin Island, and asked them to keep it a secret and help cover it.

After that, Carlos secretly left the manor, and secretly left Iron Island on a merchant ship owned by the Mafia, heading for Maglin Island.

Maglin Island is the central island in the south of the West Sea, and it is also a commercial hub. It is well-populated, well-developed in transportation, and rich in supplies. It is the headquarters of the John family, one of the five major families of the West Sea Mafia!

On the surface, the entire island is ruled by the mayor and other officials, but in fact the real owner is the John family. They secretly control the appointment and promotion of officials, and control both light and dark military forces. Their tentacles are all over the island. Master!
Iron Island is hundreds of nautical miles away from Maglin Island. It needs to pass through several islands on the way, and it will take about ten days to reach it without accident.

……

On the endless sea, the weather was clear and cloudless, the seagulls burst out, and the waves were rippling. Four large ships departed from the port of Iron Island and went to Maglin Island to do business.

There are four ships, two are merchant ships, and two are escort ships. Most of the cargo transported on the merchant ships is refined iron ore, which is of great value, and the sea is not peaceful, so escorts are naturally necessary.

Although the era of great navigation has not yet arrived, there are not many pirates in the four seas or the great sea route, but the pirates who can survive on the sea have two brushes, even the pirates in the four seas.

Unlike the era of great navigation, pirates broke out like a tide, and the navy couldn't handle it at all, resulting in uneven quality of pirates. In today's era when the number of pirates is still relatively small, all pirates that can survive in the West Sea It is quite powerful!

……

Although it was not his own boat for the first time, Carlos was quite happy. Wearing white trousers and a shirt, he looked at the sea with great interest. In this endless sea, he felt extremely small!

After watching it for more than half an hour, Carlos got tired of watching it. He went back to his room, passed the time by practicing and reading, and occasionally went for a walk on the deck.

After the operation of the Mafia, Carlos became a distinguished guest on this ship, and all kinds of treatment were good.

Passing by the island, mooring temporarily, and when resupplying, Carlos will also go to the island for a walk to see different customs and scenery.

In the four seas, it’s actually okay, the weather in the sea is not so unpredictable, and the connection between the islands is fairly close. Although there are many differences, there are also many similarities.

There is no great route, and the island-to-island situation in the new world is completely different!

The first six days of the voyage were very calm, and nothing unexpected happened, but at dusk on the seventh day, when the sea surface and the sky reflected each other, and when the sky and the earth were bright red, an accident happened and trouble came.

Screaming sirens sounded from all four ships. Carlos also came to the deck from his room when he saw this, and his brows were frowned. Line up, with their backs facing the setting sun, rushing towards them!

"Oops, it's the Mad Cow Pirates, it's more ominous now!"

"How is this possible? This is not an area where the Mad Cow Pirates are active at all. Why did they suddenly appear here?"

"Unlucky, unlucky, it's over!"

"Run, run, I don't want to die!"

……

With the appearance of five pirate ships, there was chaos on each ship, and everyone fell into pessimism and panic, only one step away from despair.

"Give up on the merchant ships. Everyone immediately go to the faster escort ship, and then flee immediately. I hope the value of the two merchant ships can feed them, and don't continue to chase us." The captain in charge of the four ships ordered decisively, and the order was quickly conveyed. .

Hearing the order, the people on the two merchant ships rushed towards the escort ship. In the crisis of life and death, all etiquette, virtue, and demeanor were all left behind, and they just wanted to reach the escort ship as soon as possible. on board.

Carlos did not panic, and calmly followed the crowd to the escort ship, but he did not relax mentally, and felt something was wrong in his heart. Was his luck too bad? He encountered pirates the first time he went to sea, and he was still traveling across regions. Pirates...

Not long after Carlos stepped onto one of the escort ships, there was a sharp sound of piercing through the air, and black cannonballs flew towards them, landing around the four ships and exploding, setting off dozens of water jets.

Pirates, start attacking!

The shelling started, and greater panic began to spread. The crew members who had not yet set foot on the escort ship were stimulated, and one by one frantically climbed onto the escort ship. Some people were directly squeezed into the sea, panicking for help, but no one went. Rescuing the people who fell into the sea, the cruelty of the sea finally reveals a clue...

"Retreat, retreat immediately!" The ship wearing gorgeous brocade robes ordered loudly.

After receiving the order, the helmsmen who controlled the two escort ships immediately sailed and ran in the opposite direction to the pirates. The ship separated, and some crew members who were climbing or hadn't boarded the ship were crying in despair, cursing, cursing, However, the escort ship didn't care at all and left ruthlessly.

Most of these abandoned crew members have only two endings, either killed by pirates, or pretended to be slaves by pirates, only crew members with special skills may be absorbed by pirates and become part of pirates.

So, how important it is to have a skill, no matter which world you are in...

Carlos has no law to control. Although there are some pitiful abandoned people, he is not the captain, and he doesn't want to expose his strength and identity, so he can't command other people.

Carlos followed the two ships and escaped, paying attention to the pirate ship behind him all the time, and found that there was one ship left behind by the five ships, and the remaining four ships did not stop at all, and they were directly behind them at full speed. Chasing after...

Carlos frowned deeper, something was wrong, something was wrong, logically speaking, most of the pirates were looking for money, and there was no reason why the pirates couldn't tell the difference between a merchant ship and an escort ship.

The meaning here is already obvious, the money will be destroyed and the disaster will be eliminated, all the wealth will be left to you, let them go, why are the pirates still chasing after them?

Isn't this superfluous and thankless?

Rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, not to mention armed escort ships equipped with artillery. If they catch up and fight, even if they win, they will suffer a lot of casualties. Isn't it good to pick up a pile of wealth for nothing?

bloodthirsty?Head iron?Or, there is someone or something they are looking for on the two escort ships?
Carlos couldn't figure it out, why?

Insufficient information...

……

Seeing that the four pirate ships are still chasing after them, the others are also puzzled. Are they still chasing?Does it mean to kill them all?

So, the two escort ships also opened fire. Since they wanted everyone's life, how could they sit and wait for death?

bang, bang, bang...

clap, clap, clap...

For a moment, above the blue sea, gunshots and gunshots continued to ring out, and a small-scale naval battle kicked off.

Carlos also came over with a long gun and started shooting. Under the sunglasses, Ergouyu Sharingans and Baiyan opened at the same time, and the bullets were fired. It was a hundred shots, and deadly iron peas burrowed into the bodies of the pirates... …
