As the Viking longships approached, the Oki Island's defenders nervously prepared to meet the enemy.

They stood behind the defensive structures on the shore, their bows, spears, and swords glinting coldly in the sunlight.

Their eyes were filled with determination and resolve. Although their hearts were filled with fear, they had no choice but to defend their homeland.

When the first pirate ship ran aground on the beach, the battle instantly erupted.

The pirates surged out like a tide, emitting wild shouts.

Wielding their weapons, they charged towards the Oki Island's defenders.

The Oki Island's defenders were not to be outdone; they shot out volleys of arrows, attempting to halt the pirates' advance. The pirates were simply too numerous; they raised their round shields, braving the rain of arrows, like a pack of hungry wolves, ferociously pouncing on the Oki Island's defenders.

Soon, the defensive line was breached under the fierce assault of eight eighth-level pirate powerhouses, and the pirates stormed into Oki Island's territory.

They burned, killed, looted, and plundered everywhere, not passing up any target they could seize.

Houses were set ablaze, flames soared into the sky, and the screams and cries of the people echoed in the air.

The warriors of Oki Island rose up in resistance, engaging in fierce close combat with the pirates.

Swords clashed, emitting crisp sounds of impact.

Blood splattered in the air, staining the earth red.

Every warrior was fighting for their honor and homeland, unafraid of death, bravely battling the pirates.

A strong pirate brandished a huge battle axe, like a raging beast.

Each swing of his battle axe carried immense power, forcing the Oki Island's warriors to retreat repeatedly.

A brave warrior from Oki Island rushed forward, raising his samurai sword and stabbing at the pirate.

The pirate dodged to the side, easily evading the attack, and then swung his axe at the warrior.

The warrior hurriedly blocked with his sword, but the pirate's strength was too great; he was shaken until his arm went numb, and he almost couldn't hold onto his sword.

The pirate seized the opportunity to attack again, the battle axe whistling as it came down on the warrior.

The warrior couldn't dodge in time and was struck in the shoulder by the battle axe, causing blood to gush out immediately.

He fell painfully to the ground but still stubbornly supported his body with his samurai sword, trying to stand up and fight again.

On another battlefield, several pirates were besieging an old warrior of Oki Island.

Although the old warrior was advanced in years, he was still agile.

He wielded his samurai sword, blocking and slashing left and right, resisting the pirates' attacks.

The pirates coordinated seamlessly, constantly launching attacks from different directions.

The old warrior gradually felt his strength failing, and his movements began to slow down.

A pirate seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack from behind, slashing his sword at the old warrior's back.

The old warrior sensed the danger but was unable to dodge in time. He could only try to turn sideways, letting the blade strike his shoulder.

He grunted in pain but still did not give up fighting. He turned and stabbed his sword at the pirate who had attacked him, knocking him to the ground.

However, the overall strength of the pirates was simply too great; they were experienced and skilled in combat.

They coordinated seamlessly, often able to defeat the Oki Island's warriors one by one by using their superior numbers.

The pirates had already penetrated deep into the interior, plundering large amounts of wealth and resources.

Although the Oki Island's defenders resisted stubbornly, their strength was becoming weaker and weaker, and they were unable to stop the pirates' attack.

At this critical moment, Oki Masamori and his father, Oki Motoyasu, led an elite force to the battlefield.

Their appearance gave the Oki Island's defenders great encouragement.

Oki Masamori wielded his samurai sword and charged into the enemy ranks, like a brave lion.

His swordsmanship was fierce, and wherever he went, pirates fell one after another.

Only because Oki Masamori was the only eighth-level powerhouse in Oki Island.

Oki Motoyasu was not to be outdone, he directed the troops and engaged in fierce combat with the pirates.

Their appearance temporarily stabilized the situation, but the number of pirates was simply too large, and their pressure was still great.

The battle lasted a long time, and both sides paid a heavy price.

Corpses piled up like mountains, and blood stained the earth red.

But the pirates did not retreat, they were still frantically looting.

The people of Oki Island fell into despair, they did not know when this war would end.

However, just then, a dark cloud suddenly appeared in the sky.

Lightning flashed in the dark cloud, as if a huge storm was about to come.

The pirates and the people of Oki Island looked up in surprise, looking at the strange scene in the sky.

Suddenly, a huge lightning bolt fell from the sky and directly hit one of the pirates' warships.

The warship exploded instantly, igniting a raging fire.

The pirates watched this scene in horror, their hearts filled with fear.

"A mage group!" Jett muttered subconsciously.

Shimada Kamikyo shouted in horror: "It's a shrine maiden, it's a divine magic attack performed by the fire-burning shrine maiden."

Then, more lightning bolts fell from the sky, hitting the pirates' warships and troops.

The pirates began to panic, they didn't know what was going on.

Jett also frowned, he realized that there might be variables in this war.

Under the lightning attack, the pirates' offensive was temporarily contained.

The people of Oki Island took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and they engaged in the final battle with the pirates.

At this time, Jett looked at the lightning falling continuously in the sky, and his heart longed for his pirate army to have a mage group to compete with it.

He also knew that this was just a luxury.

Among all professions, mages are born superior.

Even if these mages have limited achievements in their lives and can only become first- or second-level mages, the potions they refine are enough to allow them to live a comfortable life. They don't need to risk their lives like those pirates.

In addition, the pirates sail at sea for many years. Over time, the sanitary conditions on the ship will become very poor.

Those mage masters can't stand such hardship. Generally speaking, the mages mixed in the pirate army are basically wanted criminals.

They will never be able to go ashore in their lives, and there are very few such mages.

Jett suddenly asked, "Are those shrine maidens very powerful? Compared to our mages, who is more powerful?"
