Falsifying history is good business

Chapter 62: Both ships were badly damaged

How many ropes would a three-masted sailing frigate have? Even the most experienced sailor on the ship would have difficulty answering this question correctly.

As far as Lin You could sense, the number of ropes was almost endless. What was even more troublesome was that when the ropes were cut or blown apart by his magic, they did not lose their magic power, but instead split in two and became more and more, just like an earthworm cut in two.

Although "Blazing Flame" was used to burn the rope, it would take some time to burn it completely; the rope stained with flames would be more lethal in a short period of time.

As for capturing the leader first, forget it. As soon as the battle started, Blackbeard realized that his opponent was very powerful. He retreated further and further, almost to the bow of the ship, and only used the Triton Sword in his hand to control the rope remotely.

The most troublesome thing is the "foresight" ability demonstrated by Blackbeard. It makes Lin You feel that his opponent has drunk enough "Fortune Potion" before the battle, and the effect is even stronger than that of "Fortune Potion"; no matter attacking or defending, the opponent can always make the most correct response at the right time.

For example, when performing "Shattered into Pieces", several rope ends suddenly dispersed on their own and avoided the magic; and when performing "Numerous Obstacles" and "Thunder Explosion" on the besieging sailors, a whip suddenly swept over from the side and forced the magic to deviate from its direction.

As a result, Earl Goff was caught in a dilemma for a while. The ropes worked together and predicted his movements several times, almost making a successful sneak attack.

This is definitely not the strength that Blackbeard should have; after thinking about it, it can only be the work of the "god" behind him. In addition to issuing the "oracle", it also enhanced Blackbeard's strength.

Lin You can still handle it, but Barbosa is in a pitiful situation.

Although the Shin Sword was strong and sharp, facing several unkillable voodoo resurrected corpses, plus the elite pirates following the resurrected corpses, the Caspian Pirate King had no room to defend himself. He could only shout, "Should we leave?"

Lin You launched a range attack with a "Burning Flame" to help Barbossa force back the pirates who were surging on him; but he didn't expect that Blackbeard on the other side seized the opportunity, and a cable went around half a circle from the outside of the hull, tied up Barbossa's hands, and dragged him out with the monkey.

At this time, Count Goff already knew that things would not end well, and he no longer cared to hold back to maintain the storyline, and one powerful magic after another was cast.

First, a "thunder explosion" blew up most of the upper deck, killing and wounding countless zombies and sailors on the deck, and those who were not dead fell to the lower deck screaming.

All kinds of wood and debris flew all over the sky, smashing towards Blackbeard, and at the same time, he cut the ropes that bound Barbossa.

The Caspian Sea pirate king was being dragged over the side of the ship by the cable. When the cable loosened, he fell down with a cry, but was caught by the flying carpet. The cable, not wanting to be cut, followed him down like a shadow, and the end of the cable suddenly hit the flying carpet, causing it to fall directly into the sea.

At the same time, the sail on the foremast suddenly fell, and the heavy canvas happened to catch most of the flying wood chips and other objects.

While Blackbeard dodged to protect himself, a small piece of special flame flashed on the tip of the gloomy wooden wand, and quickly flew to the mast and landed on the canvas.

This flame was different from the "raging flame". It looked small, but it never went out and spread on the sail at an alarming speed - it was a "fierce fire" that could not be extinguished by water.

At this time, Blackbeard finally became anxious; if the fire continued to burn, his Queen Anne's Revenge might not be saved.

The rope controlled by the Sword of Triton no longer attacked Lin You, but quickly rolled back, tied up the burning sails, and threw them into the sea outside.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the gloomy wooden wand gently flicked at the diary in Blackbeard's hand; the diary did not move at all, but the ruby ​​inlaid on the cover suddenly jumped up and flew towards Lin You like a meteor.

Blackbeard glanced at the broken ropes and they flew up into the air, forming a rope net. Unexpectedly, Ruby slipped right through the hole in the net under the command of the magic wand.

With a "pop" sound, the boy's short body appeared in midair, scooped up the ruby ​​in his palm, and disappeared again without giving the opponent a chance to attack. Blackbeard looked around, and there was no enemy on or off the deck. In an instant, he seemed to have a feeling and turned his head to look at the beach; under the moonlight, the beach was as white as snow, and there was a familiar short figure looking over here.

The two people's eyes met.

"Damn, this intuition is indeed stronger than drinking the 'Lucky Potion'." Lin You couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when his opponent discovered his whereabouts in the first place.

This ability of "foresight" is like turning on a cheat when fighting with others. What's more troublesome is that in order to maintain the stability of the small world, the author cannot kill Blackbeard unless it is absolutely necessary, and it is not easy to damage the Queen Anne's Revenge too much.

That's why he pulled away as soon as he got the ruby.

Blackbeard wouldn't be stupid enough to run back to the shore to chase him, right? The Sword of Triton could only exert its power at sea; Lin You was forced to do nothing on the boat, but if he got to the shore, even if Blackbeard took a bath with the "Felixir", he would not be Lin You's opponent.

Things developed as expected; Blackbeard must have discovered that the "Fire" could not be extinguished, and knew that he would gain nothing by going ashore, so he simply weighed anchor and set sail.

Everything that was burning on the deck was thrown into the sea, and after losing a sail and most of the upper deck, the Queen Anne's Revenge staggered away from the Island of Death.

As the other party's ship gradually went away, Lin You also withdrew his vigilant gaze.

It would be better to leave Old Teach for Barbossa to kill in the future, and the ship will eventually become Barbossa's spoils of war.

Huh? Speaking of Barbossa, where did the Caspian Sea pirate king go? Did he fall into the sea and drown?
Count Goff looked around and saw a figure limping towards him in the distance. Who else could it be but Mr. Barbossa?

He was now soaked, his "shin sword" was missing, and half of the sleeve on his right hand was also missing.

"Where were you just now?"

"Don't mention it. I was almost swept out to sea by the waves. When I swam back, I was carried to the other side of the island by the current." The old pirate still has lingering fears when he talks about it. Those who make a living on the sea understand best the terrible undercurrents of the sea.

"What I'm more concerned about is, where is my flying carpet?" Lin You looked left and right, but didn't see the other party with a flying carpet.

“It was burned.”

"Burn it? Didn't it fall into the water with you?"

"Yes, and then I saw a piece of burning canvas falling down; the flame on it was so strange that it could not be extinguished in water, and it fell on the flying carpet and set it on fire." Barbossa pointed to his sleeve and said, "If I hadn't reacted quickly and torn off half of my sleeve, I would have been burned to death."

Lin You stood there for a long time, and only after a long while did he hear him mutter to himself: "I must bring a few more spares next time."
