The Witcher: Son of the Planes

The Black Skull pirate ship!

"What did Bator send you to do?" Jack glanced at the visitor and continued to trim his nails.

"Dear Captain Jack, Captain Bartow sent me here to express his respect for you. Please accept this small gesture." The person said, pushing the box over.

Jack looked up at the box and said nothing.

Armand, the first mate next to him, saw this, stepped forward to open the box, rummaged through the neatly stacked Nomisma in the box, turned back and said in Jack's ear: "Boss, there are about 500 gold."

Jack stretched his neck and walked up and down the boat. Suddenly, he stepped forward and kicked the box over. The Nomisma in the box rolled all over the deck.

"Bato, this guy with a mouth full of sores and bad pus, is more like a pirate than us pirates. Go back and tell him that these are not enough. I want ten times, ten times. Do you hear me clearly? Otherwise, tell him to straighten up. Your neck is waiting for death, and as for leaving no one on the boat..., you can go away," Jack said with his hands on his hips.

The visitor just took the boat and left.

…

"Captain, Jack has a big appetite. He wants 5,000 nomisma," said the first mate Bob.

"This damn sea rat thinks I'm afraid of him, huh!"

"Bang!" Bato slammed his hand on the guardrail.

"Notice down and ask the brothers to prepare, check the artillery, fill the gunpowder, and prepare for war!"

"captain……"

"No need to say more, just execute."

"Yes, Captain" Bob responded.

…

"John, John, something doesn't look right, there are really pirates." Colin patted John hurriedly and said.

"Don't panic, look for something quickly." John replied.

"Look, what's that in the distance? That black skull and crossbones flag." Colin asked.

A large ship gradually became clear from the sea level and came into view. The sharp horn of the ship's bow gave off an icy cold light. The people on the ship shouted something like "tea juice, tea juice", as if they were very excited.

Before John could answer, the voice of first mate Bob came over: "Helmsman, turn the helm and seize the windward position; the gunners are in their positions, adjust the benchmarks and load gunpowder; sailor brothers, set up the muskets and take aim. Beat these damn sea rats hard!"

"Slaves, please go back to the bottom cabin and don't run around."

"Colin, get the mop, let's go back to the bottom cabin," John said.

The dozen or so slaves on the deck returned to the hold with Colin. As soon as they returned to the hold, the sailor guarding the hatchway shook the sword in his hand and said, "Be honest and don't cause trouble."

At this time, there was already chaos in the bottom cabin. With the return of the slaves on the deck, they basically knew that they had encountered pirates. The crowd began to become restless, with noisy voices, voices, conversations, whispers, and children. The sound mixed with the woman's crying made the already crowded cabin even more chaotic.

"What to do, John?" Colin asked.

Colin was just an ordinary college student in his previous life. Although he had been naughty and mischievous since childhood, he did feel a little panicked when he encountered this situation, and was far less calm and calm than John.

"Hold the mop in your hand, you can resist one or two at critical moments." John said while polishing the top of the mop.

Seeing John's calm look, Colin gradually calmed down. It was useless to panic when the situation was like this. He imitated John's method and began to polish the top of the mop.

This is probably to make a wooden gun? It's just grinding away like this, and there's not enough time. No matter what, you have to do something, you can't just sit back and wait. Colin thought.

Colin was grinding his mop with his head down when he suddenly felt someone tugging at the back of his clothes. When he turned around, he found that it was the cute little Nora tugging at his clothes.

"What's wrong, Nora?" Colin asked.

"Brother Colin, do you think pirates will come to the ship? I heard that pirates all have red beards, big noses, and green eyes. They are very scary. They will eat children when they are hungry." Nora asked weakly.

Colin laughed at this.

"Pirates are human beings too. Although they may not look very good, they probably won't eat people. Don't be afraid. This is not something you should worry about. You can hide in the bottom cabin in a while and I will protect you." Lin touched Nora’s head and comforted her.

Nora has brilliant blond hair, big eyes that sparkle as if she can talk, and a bright smile that makes people like her at first sight. She originally boarded the ship with her mother, but unfortunately, her mother got sick a few days ago. The evil Bato did not give any treatment at all. The man might give him a chance to take a look, but he just ignored the woman and the child. As soon as he died, he was pushed into the sea.

The feeling of sympathy made Colin take more care of Nora. After pulling Nora forward from behind, he usually placed her next to him and John. Finally, she was not squeezed to death or choked to death. Therefore, Nora was Colin and John were also relatively close.

"I understand, brother Colin. I believe we will be fine." Nora replied sensibly.

Hearing the conversation between Colin and little Nora, John turned around, smiled, and told Nora, "Hide for a while and don't run around."

At this time, someone shouted from behind the cabin: "Let us loose the rope. We can also take up weapons and fight. More people have more power."

Except for the dozen men and their daughters and children working on the deck, the other men on the ship had their hands and feet tied up, and were squeezed into a confined space of less than 60 square meters. You can imagine how uncomfortable it is usually. convenient.

Hearing the noise in the bottom cabin, the sailor guarding the door was a little impatient: "What's the noise? What's the noise? Don't you want to live? Just stay there and don't move. The gentlemen have no time to care about you."

…

"In a moment, let's give Bato a few shots to taste our power and let him see the strength of the Rio pirates. Once we get close, we can pick up the ship. Although there are many pirates, don't worry about adding more, but the old guys are One less person dies," Jack ordered.

"Okay, boss, don't worry, brothers are all veterans, and they are better than those showboats opposite." First mate Armand said.

"Boss, these weaklings are getting closer in a moment. I will take people up to make sure that no one can escape." Second Officer Jimmy rushed to say.

Along with the bells of "dang, dong, dong", the watchman on the mast sounded at the same time, "There are still 30 nautical miles."

"There are still 20 nautical miles."

"The cannon range has been entered." (The cannon range is set here to be about 12 nautical miles)

The order to "fire" has not yet been issued.

"Boom, boom," the cannonball from the opposite side was fired first, and the waves hit were 3 meters high. Fortunately, they missed and there were no casualties.

War is about to break out!
