Since it is driven by profit, the length of time a merchant ship is delayed at sea is directly related to the final annual profit.

Therefore, even at night, the entire Tyna Aleus was still under the joint control of more than ten people, using the power of the wind, to rush towards the destination quickly.

Saki Yafu stayed on the bow deck for a while. Over the past few days, his status on the ship had spread privately among the crew members.

Most people treated him with the same respect as they treated Steward Crowe, and kept a respectful distance.

The only exceptions are the captain Stuart, the steward Crowe, Crowe's deputy Andrew, "Black Skull" Black, and Little Black Tan and her bachelor adoptive father Daniel.

Stuart's attitude towards him was always warm and alienated, which was a common tactic used by superiors to treat inferiors... He could act like he regarded you as one of his own, but you couldn't be naive and sincere. Think of yourself as the other person’s family.

Qi Ya knew that in the eyes of the opponent, he was nothing more than a junior boy with acceptable strength and some fighting talent.

To be able to receive the current treatment, I am afraid that the other party has already taken into account his growth potential.

According to his current intuitive feeling, excluding himself, the most powerful person on this merchant ship may be the captain who has a big belly and looks sickly.

The second possibility is the "acquaintance" Crowe who is difficult to get along with.

With the shrewdness of a businessman, it is unlikely that he would leave all the matters on his ship to an outsider without sufficient reliance.

In the world of pirates, the most reliable reliance is crushing by force.

It's hard for him to make a judgment about Crowe's strength at the moment until he sees the opponent's action with his own eyes.

However, judging from the cold and paralyzed face of the other party, except for being slightly respectful to Stuart, the rest of the time showed a cold and cold expression, so he probably thought that his strength was higher than what he showed, right?

In addition,

Crowe's deputy, Andrew, acted neither humble nor arrogant, and he vaguely wanted to be brothers with Saki Kengo;

"Black Skull" Blake was the most active, looking like he was ready to kneel down and be a dog-legger;

Needless to say about Xiao Heitan, what is interesting is his adoptive father, the old bachelor Daniel.

After learning that his daughter got along well with the third most important figure on the merchant ship, and there were rumors about her, she was not worried about being rejoiced, and shamelessly enjoyed several good meals with Xiao Heitan.

Qi Ya didn't care much about Daniel's behavior of eating and drinking, since these were not his things anyway.

But what really disgusted him was that the old guy saw that he looked easy to negotiate and relied on his status as "father-in-law", so he proposed to move into his spacious and luxurious bedroom.

In line with the principle of "no need for a wretched old man to snore under the bed", Qi Ya refused with a smile.

After that, Daniel's suddenly heavy and hard work temporarily restrained the guy's hands and feet, and his life on the Tyner Aleus became peaceful and comfortable again.

However, unless you are willing to be a tortoise for the rest of your life, as long as you live, it will be a process of constantly encountering and resolving troubles. Regarding Daniel's over-the-line behavior, he just gave him a proper lesson and quickly dealt with it. Forget about it.

……

When tiredness hit, Qi Ya planned to return to the cabin.

Ten days was neither long nor short. Before arriving in Champagne Town, he felt that he could complete the remaining five agility trainings and increase his proficiency in [Intermediate Swordsmanship] to 5 points.

There is still a long way to go before promotion.

Looking at the first half of the "Paradise" of the Grand Line, his current strength barely falls into the category of "not enough compared to those above, but more than enough compared to those below".

If you rush into the Grand Route without being able to use your sword energy or use your armed domineering energy, you will most likely have to be slaughtered by others. The rest will be a gamble on whether you have the unlucky luck.

In his previous life, he was deeply poisoned by bad luck. In this life, Qi Ya will no longer believe that luck can be on his side.

All he wanted now was that the merchant ship could reach the town of Champagne safely without any problems along the way.

Then get off the ship and have a good meal and drink in Champagne Town before thinking about going to Frosty Moon Village.

As soon as he entered the cabin passage, a scream came from the stern deck, and soon there was a second and third sound. Qiya stopped, feeling slightly annoyed.

"Are there any pirates coming up to harass you again?"

After having such a thought in his mind, he thought for a moment, and he was not confident enough to stop a group of pirates who might have approached him alone.

Instead, he knocked on the door of the nearest room.

Before the man behind the door rubbed his sleepy eyes to wake up, he said in an unquestionable tone:

"The pirates are here. Go and wake up everyone else. If you delay and cause losses to the Chamber of Commerce, you know the consequences."

The muscular man wearing only underpants woke up immediately after hearing this. After seeing that the person who spoke was the third most important person on the merchant ship, he immediately did not dare to talk nonsense, and did not care about his current image, and ran straight to the corridor. , running and shouting at the top of his lungs.

It was only then that the remaining sailors on the deck responsible for night navigation seemed to react from their dazed state.

Dense warning sounds mixed with hoarse shouts sounded for a short while, but were soon replaced by screams one after another, mixed with a lot of sick laughter.

The group of people seemed to have no more scruples in their actions after successfully touching the Tyna Aleus, and did not care at all whether the big noise would disturb the people in the cabin.

Suddenly, the entire merchant ship under the moon began to commotion.

The sailors who were responsible for keeping watch in the cabin were rushing toward the cabin entrance one after another with short-handled flintlock guns. They gradually gathered in one place, unable to move even as they listened to the constant screams outside.

Qi Ya glanced at them and didn't let them go out to die. After simply telling them to guard the cabin door, they headed towards Xiao Heitan's room.

In addition to forcing their way into the cabin, the pirates also wanted to enter the cabin by lowering ropes from both sides of the hull and breaking through the windows.

The opponent seemed to have chosen the timing of the attack carefully, but his behavior after boarding the ship was no different from an ordinary mindless thief.

Based on the two factors, Qi Ya guessed that there was probably a dog-headed military advisor in the pirate group that attacked, but the pirates under his command didn't seem to be so obedient in executing the plan.

"Truly—"

Qi Ya knocked on the wooden door of Xiao Heitan's room, but there was no answer. The door was just ajar and opened as soon as he knocked.

The things inside were very messy, as if the owner of the room was awakened by the noise and ran out directly.

Saki Kenhao watched for a moment, his expression became solemn, and when he was about to go elsewhere to look for this guy, the bed board in the room was pushed up by two small hands to create a gap, revealing a pair of smart eyes.

"Albert, do you want to come in and hide together?" the voice under the bed asked timidly.
