Chapter 299: Pirates
Stepping onto the deck, Su Xiao stared at the pirates in front of him with dragon flash in his hands.
There were dozens of pirates around him. It was a small group of pirates. From their ragged clothes, festering wounds, and yellow skin, anyone could tell that they were doing very badly.
— Drop your weapons and lie down on the deck — " one of the pirates pointed a flintlock pistol at Su Xiao and swallowed. There wasn't much meat left on their ship, and the pirates who were still alive had weapons on them, which made it very difficult to replenish their food supplies.
Su Xiao looked around and a strong smell of sweat hit his nose.
A one eyed man quickly stepped out of the crowd and the pirates made way for him.
It was their captain.
The one-eyed captain looked Su Xiao up and down. In the end, his eyes stared at the dragon flash in Su Xiao's hand, and greed filled his eyes.
— What are you doing, we cleaving wave pirates never harm innocent people, put away your weapons, " the one-eyed captain barked and the pirates immediately put away their weapons and started trying to smile amiably.
— I'm sorry if we startled you. Our ship has been badly damaged and we can't control it as much as before. You weren't injured, right? The one-eyed captain took a small bottle from his belt and tossed it to Su Xiao.
It had fresh water in it.
— Drink some water and rest, we're going to the " Water 7».
*Pum*
The bottle fell to the deck. Su Xiao didn't even look at her.
— Don't act like that, only a couple groups of pirates are like us. Others would have already beaten you up, " one of the pirates said.
The one-eyed captain turned his head and looked at the pirate. His eyes were very cold, and this pirate quickly apologized and smiled.
— It never hurts to be vigilant, but we are not bad people.
The one-eyed captain waved his hand and motioned for the pirates to retreat.
Su Xiao knew what the captain wanted. He saw the way the man looked at the dragon's flash, and he knew that he wanted to take the dragon's sword for himself.
— Oh, I also sailed in Water 7, " Su Xiao said.
— We have the same destination, apparently it's fate, since we met in such a huge sea, but... The one-eyed captain narrowed his eyes — ...although we do not harm ordinary people, we, like other groups, have to pay for a pass. If you can give us one million belly, we'll take you to Water 7." Don't think this price is too high. This is the price of saving your life. You can't sail to the island without a ship. Even I do not know how long it will take us to reach the island.
Su Xiao chuckled when he heard this.
In response to his suggestion, in such a situation, any person would say that he did not have money, and then the captain would offer to give the sword instead of money..
— Unfortunately, I don't have any money with me, " Su Xiao gripped the hilt of his sword and prepared for battle.
— Oh, well, given the situation, that makes sense. You can give me your sword as payment, " the one-eyed captain looked at Su Xiao's left hand, and his eyes narrowed.
Su Xiao was holding a fleshy bone in his left hand that he had bought especially for Bubtney.
— Take this bone immediately! the one-eyed captain wasn't going to continue his performance anymore.
— Su Xiao threw the bone into the air and dozens of pairs of eyes looked up.
The pirates immediately rushed to her side.
— She's mine, she's mine!
— You want to die?
— Ah! motherfucker, don't bite my hand!
The pirates, like a pack of hyenas, began to kill each other for a bone with a small amount of meat.
The captain's face changed dramatically, and although he also wanted to take this bone, his status as a captain was more important. "Stop it, now!" The one-eyed captain bellowed, but nothing changed.
*Boom!*
One of the pirates with a hole in his head fell to the deck.
The smoke was quickly blown away by the sea breeze.
— Stop now, or I'll kill you all!" The one-eyed captain quickly reloaded his pistol and pointed it again at the crowd of pirates.
— Captain, behind you! One of the pirates said in horror, but it was already too late.
The one-eyed captain's body leaned forward and his eyes widened. The captain's mouth opened wide, as if he was gasping for breath.
Looking down he saw a bloody blade.
— When...
The captain fell to the deck and Su Xiao pulled the blade out of his back, then stepped on his head and cut the artery in his neck.
Blood quickly began to spread under his body, and Su Xiao looked at the pirates, kicked the captain's body in their direction, and asked, " Who's next?"?
The pirates were silent, and they all bowed their heads.
— Brothers, for...
One of the pirates drew his sword, and the other pirates drew their swords as well.
*Poof-poof...*
The pirate who wanted to say something was pierced by dozens of blades.
— Young swordsman, we've been wanting to kill that bastard for a long time.
— I agree that he only cut off my arm because I accidentally brushed against him while sorting through the loot...
— We've heard that you want to swim to Water 7, so we have the same goal. Even if you kill us, you can't control this ship alone.
Unlike the brainless secondary characters from the anime, these pirates had a working brain in their heads.
Su Xiao nodded. — You'll have to take control of the ship, but don't even think about sabotage.
These pirates were right. Without them, Su Xiao wouldn't be able to control the ship, not to mention that their ship wasn't in very good condition.
The pirates breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't relax and continued to watch Su Xiao vigilantly.
The fact that he was able to approach their captain undetected had already demonstrated his strength.
The pirates quickly threw the body of the one-eyed captain and his mate into the cabin, and some of them kicked the captain's body several times.
It was possible to control people with force quite successfully, but as soon as this force stopped working on subordinates, the inevitable would happen.
Su Xiao didn't care about the pirates anymore. This broken ship could fall apart at any moment. He didn't believe the pirates would sail in any other direction.
The pirates quickly returned to their posts and started working. Even though the ship wasn't moving very fast, even this speed was faster than Su Xiao's swimming speed.
Su Xiao walked over to a room with a very large hole that was patched up with wooden boards. It was the captain's cabin. It wasn't until he entered it that he smelled the smell of burning.
The captain's cabin was small, about ten square meters long.
One wall of the captain's cabin was scorched and very wet. Perhaps earlier it was set on fire, and then it was extinguished by sea water..
The captain's cabin was very simple. It contained only a wardrobe, a wooden table, a chair, and a bed.
Su Xiao first searched the cabinet, but found only bottles of low-quality wine in it. One of the most noticeable bottles was a clear wine bottle with some kind of animal whip soaked in it.
Su Xiao first searched the display case, but after searching for a long time, all he found were bottles of low-quality alcohol.
In one of them, there was actually a part of some animal inside.
