My friends are all pirates
Page 76
The other party's full "I have a good story" demeanor, Asherid can only say-it's really late brother, I've heard your ears callused.
But... Monkey?Still with D?
But after thinking about it for a while, Asherid felt that it made sense.
The Revolutionary Army was established by this man. At this stage, the Revolutionary Army’s manpower is still very limited. Slaves are natural comrades for the Revolutionary Army. It doesn’t matter if their consciousness is low, as long as they want to kill the World Government.
"The D family?" Ashred turned around.
Asherid swears to God, he just looked and thought nothing.
It's normal for an important character in a manga to meet a real person for the first time, while the freshness is still there, and take a look back, right?
But in Monkey D. Longyan's eyes, when the fire giant in front turned his head back, the beard made of flames fluttered in the wind, raising a piece of sparks, and the two eyes were bright red, obviously full of interest.
As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, he has been looking for a way to quickly grow the Revolutionary Army. In the end, he set his sights on slaves. These people have no way out. Slavery is practiced on the land of the World Government. The punishment was never harsh.
Every town gate has a gatekeeper, every ferryboat has a guard, every bridge has a sentry, every wood has a patrol, such a system constitutes an almost endless search for escaped slaves, slaves Under the cruel reality of the system, countless slaves can only look at the fuzzy distance at night, under the twinkling stars, thinking that there may be an uncertain hope of freedom somewhere beyond the mountains or snow-capped mountains, And look forward to this hope can come to their own body.
But during the day, this expectation will be deeply buried in the heart, because when they are outdoors, as long as the police officers have doubts, they can tie them up and check them in front of their owners to make sure they are not running away. The slave may not have the idea of fleeing. If the slave cannot clear himself of the suspicion, he will be tortured, forced to confess, led behind the horses and bruises, walked for at least ten miles with bruises, and then thrown into prison.
In this case, no matter how much slaves want to escape, they can only endure torture and dare not seek beauty and avoid evil. Usually, before the Revolutionary Army, there are only two situations in which slaves can regain their freedom—meet pirates Or into the arms of death.
"Yes, I'm D."
Monkey D. Long looked at Ah Sherid, his voice sonorous and powerful.
"As a giant race, your lifespan is far longer than mine, and you must have seen more evil than me. Haven't you ever thought of changing all this? Human beings are not the only ones who are oppressed by those people. They will find you existence, and then come to capture you."
Oh, that's great, I will use vests more often in my work, let them all look for them.
Ashred was delighted to hear that.
Monkey D. Long is not an ordinary rebel. He seems to have been a lieutenant general before the rebellion. If he wants to say that, he must be right.
"Nothing is more important than my sword." Asherid closed his eyes solemnly, "It's going to rain, I have to go."
Among the crowd, Belize couldn't help but become suspicious.
Could it be that this guy really wasn't changed by that Asherid?
After all, Ah Sherid is a young man after all, so he can't be so good at acting, right?Maybe he really left after receiving his own warning?
Bello Betty took a few steps forward and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Monkey D. Long.
"I see." Monkey D. Long nodded to Asherid, "No matter what, our Revolutionary Army will be your friend, big guy, I hope we will meet again one day."
"It will happen if there is a destiny," said Ashred.
Can't talk anymore, it's really going to rain.
He walked to the bridge in a few steps, and then jumped up. At the last moment before falling, Asherid looked back and saw a large group of slaves gathered by the bridge. Looking at him, many people were still kneeling.
Did they take me for Ultraman?
Ah Sherid subconsciously had this thought.
The sea mist and night soon engulfed his figure, for he no longer glowed, like a torch thrown into the sea, becoming a part of the darkness.
In the darkness, Asherid dumped the heat into the elemental fluid, his body quickly recovered, and then he turned into Pyro again and flew towards the torched "Dreadnought".
In fact, there are quite a lot of loopholes in the whole process, but whether it is the revolutionary army or the world government that has been investigated by many parties afterwards, it is certain that they will not pay attention to these for a while. So many slaves will be established by the world government. The worst slave escape accident in centuries.
It will send powerful weapons to those abolitionists. Whether it is the resurgence of abolitionism or the upcoming large-scale expansion of the revolutionary army, which one is not more important than a giant family wandering on the sea?
If Monkey D. Long really thought of him as a friend, he would definitely help him finish it.
Asherid had just landed back on the deck when the big raindrops were already falling from the sky.
The sailors around did not have any special reaction to the sudden rain, they were waiting for orders from the captain.
"Let's go, get out of here, the farther the better." Asherid issued an order loudly, and asked the sailors to send a light signal to the Sun Pirates.
With the instructions, the sailors quickly entered their positions and began to perform their duties efficiently. The dripping rope was dragged to the deck, and the sails were opened. In less than an hour, no one could see the bridge from the stern. Silhouettes, only darkness and sea wind behind, and the ship belonging to the Sun Pirates on the left.
In the wind and rain, the Dreadnought swayed and rolled up and down like a huge millstone on the hillside. The sailors tugged hard and held on to the sails. As far as the eye could see, there was only the sky lit up with lightning from time to time and the dark sea. It was like that The waves are rough.
Fortunately, the Intrepid has Xia Li, and this is the East China Sea. Compared with the Great Channel, its climate is not bad enough. In addition, the wind and rain come and go quickly, so it is not particularly difficult at all.
In the middle of the night, the Intrepid had already left the range of the wind and rain, and the Sun Pirates dealt with it more easily. It has not lost contact with the Intrepid. After Charlie touched the ball again, she provided a new direction. In her words, there will be good luck in this direction.
Xia Li's professional ability has been unanimously trusted by everyone since she went to sea. The sailors on the Dreadnought are all newcomers, but they all obey Al Sherid's orders.
And they are really good sailors.
This team is fully equipped with the skills to operate a large armed sailing ship, whether it is sailing, shooting, fighting or sailing. In the age of sailing, with such qualities, they can control the most powerful and complex ships.
After the fight, Asherid was really sleepy, so after confirming that the ship was in a stable environment, he went back to the cabin and took a nap. When he got up again, it was already dawn.
In front of the Intrepid, an island has appeared, and the prosperity of this island is visible to the naked eye.
When the Intrepid approached the stone pier, a large number of ocean-going ships had already been tied to the pier. At first, Acheride thought that this place would be the same as those ports he had visited before, and he would see the slave trade again, but he boarded the pier and entered this After visiting the city and talking to people, he realized he was wrong.
This is a small city with only 2 people. The ancient city walls are still preserved, but the downtown area is now developed around the stone wharf. The shops and warehouses here are full of goods. The pillars of the city The industry is a handicraft industry. It provides merchants with weaving, smoked food and other handmade products as its source of wealth. There are no slaves at all. The residents are mainly craftsmen, and hard work is regarded as the only way to get rich. Favorability greatly increased.
There are also many sailors in the city. They generally wear woolen coats, fur hats, and tar-stained coats. As for whether they come from merchant ships or pirate ships, no one knows, but there are indeed many merchants here. Lord and squires from elsewhere, there is also a church in the blue star gothic style in the city, and the chapel.
After completing a new round of supplies here, Acherid went back on the road.
Maybe it was fate, they finally had a clue about Aaron.
In fact, since entering the East China Sea, Asherid has already realized that the first-class intelligence capabilities of the Charlotte family in the new world will definitely be greatly reduced in the four seas, especially in the East China Sea. Charlotte Katakuri is subject to certain restrictions in action Under the circumstances, the intelligence network of Charlotte's family is not so easy to use. After all, the four seas are the basic disk of the world government. All along, it has been Xia Li who has really played a major role.
Aaron's clue came from a merchant ship.
When Yasherid found the merchant ship, it acted as if it was drifting with the current. When Yasherid picked up the binoculars and began to observe it, he found that on its deck, sailors were throwing corpses into the sea.
Whether it is the Sun Pirates or the Intrepid, they are all pirate ships now.
So, Asherid made a decision—he wanted to board the ship and have a look. If the captain was a very traditional tyrant, then he would have to experience the fun of robbery again.
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Jim Anthony was a sailor nine years ago and served on the navy's warships. When he was sold to the navy by the conscripts, he was devastated. Become mesmerized and think this is what a shipboard society should be like.
From that moment on he had no intention of being a sailor forever.
During the years of serving in the warship, he performed better and better, and worked hard to learn all the skills. He was so obedient, serious and studious, and he was so supportive of the discipline of the army that he was very recognized by the officers. , also willing to give him more training, when he came out of the navy, he was already an expert in navigation.
He also learned the navy's semi-official policy of "detaining the money, detaining the people" and adapted it to the environment of civilian ships.
Warships rely on the Marine Corps, he relies on bonuses and thugs, he will never deduct salary, not only the shipowner knows, but the sailors also know, but before the ship finishes its voyage, it is impossible to get a Bailey.
In other respects, he is only harsh.

Everyone knows that if you hire Jim Anthony as the captain, you can earn more. His cost control is very famous in the captain's circle. Jim Anthony will always claim that in order to ensure that everyone can go home safely And avoid the punishment of the Admiralty Court, he will control the ships according to the discipline of the army.
Most of the shipowners think that Jim Anthony is a talented gentleman, and a small number of people will think the same as the sailors-he is a sadist. become abnormal.
In any case, Jim Anthony has realized his youthful dream. He has become a well-known merchant captain in the circle because of his excellent sailing skills, cost management and contacts accumulated in the navy. Many chambers of commerce are willing to pay a higher price. The captain of the company invited him to lead the ship for a dividend.
This time, the ship he took was called the Ridge, a three-masted galleon—since he became famous, Jim Anthony no longer took orders for ships weighing less than [-] tons. It is extremely unsafe to sacrifice manpower and firepower.
Jim Anthony came out of the cabin, first stretched himself, and then looked at the boy who was still tied to the mast.
He decided to do some exercise to exercise his body.
"Bring me my whip!" he ordered loudly.
As captain of the Ridge, he enjoys absolute power.
But the sailors on the deck were unwilling to respond to this instruction, and everyone pretended not to hear it.
Jim Anthony's original good mood was immediately ruined, but he did not punish these sailors, turned around and returned to the captain's cabin, and when he came out again, he had already taken a "nine-tailed whip" called "nine-tail whip" on warships. "The instrument of torture.
But such tools are not often used on warships.
Jim Anthony went up to the mast, beat the boy several times in a very cruel manner, and then ordered the boy to be put down.
This time, the sailors obeyed.
They all sympathized with the child and hoped that he would be freed soon.
Jim Anthony's first punishment for the boy was to be tied to the mast and whipped for nine days and nine nights, and to double the pain by pouring salt water for pickling food into the wound.
Yesterday, Jim Anthony dragged him to the diving board again, stomped on him, ordered others to do the same, kicked him repeatedly and stomped on his chest after being refused by everyone, when he thought he was going to die When asked for water, Gion Anthony forced him to drink his own filth instead, and now his skin is as colorful as a rainbow, with flesh like jelly in many places, and his head is swollen to the size of the combined heads of two large men .
I don't know what mistake this child made. Sooner or later, he will die in pain. Everyone hopes that this time can be faster.
But when the sailors untied the boy from the mast, they found him breathless at last, and after fourteen days' delay the poor little fellow passed away from the world.
When the man died, Jim Anthony suddenly lost interest. After ordering the sailors to throw the man away, he turned and went back to the cabin.
The sailors wrapped the boy up and tied heavy objects on the wooden board. Taking advantage of Jim Anthony's absence, they held a simple farewell ceremony for the boy, and then tilted the board slightly so that the body slid into the sea and sank.
The sailors watched the boy's body sink into the sea in silence.
Such is the business, the captain of a merchant ship has supreme authority, the cruelty of many is appalling, and the slightest mistake a sailor makes, such as losing an oar, forgetting to do a chore, or being unsteady at the helm, is punished. Beaten with whip or club, not brutal merchant captain?Maybe, but not with the sailors on the Ridge.
Before this child, two sailors on the Ridge had lost their lives. One sailor was forced to steer the helm for four hours because he was bedridden, and then tied to the mizzenmast and whipped. He died four days later. The other sailor was accused of stealing A live bird was tied to a rigging and flogged to death.
Even so, the sailors still chose to endure rather than mutiny, because although Jim Anthony was extremely cruel, he would not deduct at least two months' salary from the sailors like many merchant captains did, and the food was well prepared, and it was not the kind of obvious Things that make people sick after eating, he also has a relationship with the navy, and sailors can avoid being caught by the navy and not getting paid.
Being captured by the navy is a disaster for the sailors and their families behind them. Half of the sailors who join the army will die at sea, and once the warship docks, sailors rarely get money before they set sail again. Once they leave, it is tantamount to Automatically give up all unearned wages, and wages are usually paid in the form of vouchers, which are IOUs issued by the world government, and can receive money at an unspecified time in the future. Sailors who need cash have to pay the vouchers in It is only worth a little bit of the face value, and it is sold to usurers. In fact, this is not bad, because many people have served for several years without getting the last Bailey.
From a legal point of view, the captain of a merchant ship cannot be severely punished by violence like the captain of the Royal Navy, but the maritime court is always on the side of the ship owner and the captain, so the captain of the merchant ship can always bully or kill those who are not pleasing to him for various reasons. People didn't retreat completely, and the only ones who could really punish them were sailors who put all their eggs in one basket to commit mutiny or pirates who came calling.
"Don't look, the captain will come out later, no one wants to be whipped, right?" An old sailor looked away from the sea and said to everyone.
The sailors withdrew their gazes and turned to go to their respective posts, but when one sailor was about to turn around, he found a large sailing ship that looked only slightly smaller than his own on the sea level in the distance.
He just opened his mouth, and before he could make a sound, another ship appeared immediately after.
The bow of the ship looks so unscrupulous, it is not a serious ship at first glance.
Why are you opening a restaurant on the sea, such a big fish head!
"Boat! There is a boat!" The sailor fully believed in his instincts, so he shouted loudly.
Before he spoke, many people had already seen the changes on the sea, that is, the person in charge of the lookout just now came down to perform a farewell ceremony for the dead boy, otherwise they would have discovered it earlier.
In the eyes of everyone, the two ships were clearly moving towards their own side, without any cover.
It is not uncommon for merchant ships to meet at sea. The Ridge has encountered several times before, but it has a huge hull, a sufficient number of sailors, artillery and rifles. Perhaps because of these factors, the merchant ships encountered are all Very friendly, or not disturbing each other, or a harmonious maritime transaction.
But that's all one-on-one.
The formation of a fleet does not conform to the daily operations of merchant ship owners, and cargo is carried by a single ship unless there are special circumstances.
Jim Anthony walked out of the cabin again with a serious expression. Before this, the sailors of the Ridge had followed the fixed procedures he required before sailing, and immediately distanced themselves when they saw the ship.
They are all old sailors, and they know very well that when they encounter a dog at sea, they may be a wolf that looks like a dog. The Ridge has just finished resupply and has no need to trade with people, so it takes full advantage of the wind and goes to the other side. Drive in one direction.
Jim Anthony pulled out the binoculars, and he looked at the one that was closer to the front of the two ships, and the deck of the other was crowded with people.
The easiest way to distinguish a merchant ship from a pirate ship is to look at the deck area and the number of people corresponding to it. Nine and a half of the ten exceeding the standard are pirates, and there is no need to wait for the opposite flag to be raised.
He closed the binoculars with a "snap" and shouted: "Raise the top sail! The other party is a pirate!"
Then he turned to look at his first mate again.
"Wake up everyone sleeping in the cabin and prepare the cannon!"
"Yes, Captain."
The first mate was about to give orders when he, like Jim Anthony, saw a thing flying up from the ship with a trailing flame.
Throw flint?Are there still such primitive weapons for ships?
This idea was quickly dismissed, because "Flint" not only had amazing speed, but also flew in a straight line.
The sailors scattered in horror, unable to control the ship with peace of mind. Jim Anthony immediately called out to the thugs he raised. Just as the thugs rushed onto the deck, a group of human-shaped flames fell from the sky and exploded on the spot. The resulting shock wave instantly swayed around.
Jim Anthony felt that he was flying, and when he came back to his senses, his whole body was in pain. The familiar feeling made him understand that multiple organs in his body were injured, but the injury was more serious than any other time.
He endured the pain and looked at the place where the explosion just happened, and suddenly felt a chill in his heart. None of his thugs were good, and many of them had severed limbs. Those who could still howl were considered lucky.
Jim Anthony only felt his eyes go black, and before he fainted completely, he saw a person coming out of the flames.
