The sword of the pirate is like a dream

Chapter 25 Sea God's Sacrifice
Another new day.

The wind blew up last night, and the boat with sails opened was running quite fast. Io could no longer see the coast from the deck, and all he could see was the vast sea.

Yesterday, he picked up another coolie for nothing, which made him feel that he was lucky these days, and it was a wise decision to go to sea.

The new coolie went to catch up on his sleep, and the other one hadn't woken up yet. He was the only one awake at this time.

Ai Ou took a bite of the hard dry food, thinking about the next plan in his mind.

The dragon's lair is quite far away, and this ship is not too big, and it has to stop a few times for supplies on the way, so I have to find a few bounty pirates to replenish my wallet; the literacy education has just started, and the courses cannot be stopped Now, it just so happens that the new hard worker is useless, so let her work more, and the one with small arms and legs doesn't expect her to help fight; and the scheduled training should start as soon as possible, the strong in this world really There are many, you can always give yourself some surprises...

After sorting out his thoughts, Io began to warm up and prepare to go swimming in the sea—in the beginning, he followed the boat upstream, and when he became proficient, he went to the back of the boat. The vortex caused by the boat passing by seemed quite challenging.

The sun rose quite early over the sea.

To be on the safe side, he first threw a rope tied to the mast into the water, and tied a short knife around his calf, and then he plunged into the water and swam alongside the boat a little farther away.

Time flies, and before you know it, the sun is already high on the top.

"Good morning, Captain." Toolman No. [-] Lilith rubbed her eyes and appeared above the side of the ship.

Ai Ou took the time to reply "Good morning". After swimming for so long, he only felt a little tired, and it took a few days to feel the specific effect.

"I'm going to cook." She said this, then turned around and left in a daze, as if she hadn't woken up yet, but her level of self-awareness was really satisfactory.

Not long after, Toolman No. [-] Nami also appeared: "Captain?"

"Ah."

After this polite response, Nami was no longer heard.He was spending his mind on exercising, and he had no time to observe the tool man who came to his door—even if it was suspicious, she would not be a match for Ai Ou if there were more than a dozen more.

Nami really wanted to have a good relationship with this unsmiling captain, but she couldn't think of what to say for a while, so she fell silent.

Does this captain like swimming?However, the swimming style looks a bit jerky, and the splash is too much.

Nami grew up in the East China Sea, and then spent eight years at sea in order to save money. Naturally, she often went into the water, and unconsciously began to comment on the swimming skills of her new target.Now the weather is fine, and there is no need to control the boat, she just rests her chin on the edge of the deck and watches Io swim.

She didn't come to her senses until the voice of Lily Xi calling for food sounded behind her.

Ai Ou used the rope thrown down before going into the water to go back to the boat, have dinner, and continue the literacy education, which can be regarded as a combination of work and rest.At the end of the lesson, he jumped into the sea again.

Naturally, Nami would not be so bored as to watch others swim and watch all day. In the afternoon, she returned to the cabin to draw the charts, so as not to waste the hard-earned quiet time.Usually, she is either on a pirate ship or on a passenger ship, and she dare not take the risk of being exposed to this hobby. Only when she returns to her little room in the Dragon Paradise can she calm down and do this thing—and she is very unhappy. love that place.

On this boat, one is a naive young lady and the other is an illiterate and unknown bounty hunter. There are absolutely no factors that would disturb her.From here to Dragon Paradise, it will take half a month at the most optimistic, just find an opportunity to steal this ship before then, there is still plenty of time.The sea chart information of the Great Route has been obtained, and the goal of [-] million Baileys is also very close. Nami feels that everything is going very smoothly recently.

——Of course, it would be even better if the eldest lady didn't run around on the deck all the time.

It's not that Nami can't bear the noisy environment, but Lilyxi ran around on the deck, then ran into the aisle of the cabin, and then ran out and turned around again. Wondering what the hell she was doing.

So Nami put down her pen, and stopped Li Lixi at the door of her room: "Can I ask what you are doing?"

The lively young lady still had the same baseball cap on her head, her face was flushed after strenuous exercise, and there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead, she said mysteriously, "I am offering sacrifices to the sea god."

Poseidon?which one?
Nami looked at a loss, she had heard many legends of different sea gods at sea, but none of them were worshiped like Lilith.

Seeing her confused look, Lilyxi took the initiative to explain: "If you sincerely pray to the Sea God, you will get its help! Nami, do you want to try it too?"

I didn't mean to ask this!

Nami shook her head subconsciously.It seemed a bit silly to follow around on the boat, but she wasn't stupid—she recognized a series of experiences after boarding the boat. Lily Xi, the deputy captain, didn't have the status she said on the boat at all. Just a handyman okay!The bounty duo's way of getting along is not so much that Lilith sent a commission to the captain, but rather that the captain hired Lilith as a handyman, and the wages were to take Lilith to carry out crusades.

Lily wasn't discouraged when she was rejected, she smiled and waved to Nami, and continued her so-called "sacrifice".

After hesitating for a while, Nami followed Lily to the deck, and only then did she see the whole picture of the ceremony: Lily moved around the deck in different poses, and the "thud, thud, thud" sound that she thought was her footsteps was actually It was the voice that came out of her mouth, and now it didn't sound through the cabin wall. It was indeed a bit strange.

Nami inadvertently noticed that some small protrusions appeared on the sea surface, which gradually turned into triangular fins.She was startled, and hurried to the edge of the deck, seeing the captain in the sea concentrating on swimming, she quickly reminded: "Captain, be careful—"

Ai Ou came back to his senses when he heard her voice, only to find that a large number of fish fins surrounded him outside.He was taken aback, wondering why he didn't find out in advance, and was reaching for the dagger, when he heard Tool Man No. [-] shouting: "It's a dolphin——"

dolphin?

He thought for a while, gave up touching the knife, found the rope, and returned to the boat—and then discovered the weirder behavior of Toolman [-] before he asked Toolman [-] what he knew about this phenomenon.

"What is she doing?"

Nami walked to him and handed over a towel, lowering her voice: "She said she was offering sacrifices to the sea god."

What the hell?

Before Ai Ou had time to ask questions, the sky suddenly darkened.
