213. Flying Squirrel without Air Force(1/2)
On the sea, a ship flying with an ugly-looking pirate flag was sailing in the waves, and there were bursts of laughter on the ship.
On the sail of the main mast is the logo of the Whitebeard Pirates. The Whitebeard logo, which looks like a crescent moon, is unique in this world and no one dares to imitate it.
Under the sail, Bisarru, wearing a captain's hat, held a wooden cup with golden wine in his hand. He raised the cup, stood under the mast, and said to all the pirates: "This cup,
Thank you dad, it is dad who allows us to sail freely on this sea and allows us to have such rich harvests."
"Thank you, Dad!" A group of people raised their glasses and echoed loudly.
In fact, it's not that they can be unscrupulous after joining the White Group. In this vast sea, there are many people who don't buy White Beard's account.
I haven’t seen that there are always endless pirate groups that challenge Whitebeard every year, let alone their sons who are affiliated with Whitebeard. But it is not completely without benefits. At least there are still many pirates and the navy who are worried about the Whitebeard Pirates.
To increase the group's prestige and reduce conflicts with them.
There are also many such people.
This will allow them to avoid being able to stand out in the pirate industry, which has become more and more entangled since Roger's death. The average pirate group is not their opponent, and the powerful pirate group will have to worry about Whitebeard, so they have been since
Life has been very smooth since joining the Whitebeard Pirates.
You can tell just by looking at the state of the pirates on the ship. Everyone is at least a little fatter than before. They are sitting on the deck in a carefree manner. They can drink and eat meat unscrupulously without worrying about someone appearing out of nowhere.
The pirate group had a conflict.
Because this area already belongs to the sea area where the Whitebeard Pirates are located. Although it is still far away from the station where Moby Dick is located, ordinary pirates rarely dare to set foot here.
Of course, Bisaru and the others can safely hold a banquet to celebrate this great harvest.
"Captain Bisaru, I think we should give the navy a toast." A pirate who seemed to have drunk too much stood up unsteadily, holding a wine glass and shouting with his tongue out loud.
As soon as these words came out, it really attracted the attention of most of the pirates. They all looked at him, wanting to hear why he said such words.
Even Bisaru is no exception.
As a captain, he has a good drinking capacity, especially after becoming Whitebeard's son. After training, his drinking capacity has become better and better. Bisarru narrowed his eyes and said: "David, you bastard guy always has a lot of new tricks.
But if you can’t explain why today, I will definitely hang you into the sea later so that you can wake up properly.”
"Hey, Captain, after listening to what I said, you won't have such thoughts." David was not afraid at all. He wandered around half a circle, found a wine barrel, filled his glass and said loudly, "We should be grateful.
Those cowards in the navy, it is precisely because they protect us so well that we have the opportunity to rob such a wealthy town, and it is precisely because they are too cowards that they dare not pursue us that we can bring such a big
After receiving the goods and returning them to our territory, do you think we should give them a toast?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
All the pirates on the deck burst into laughter, understanding what David meant.
"Well said, David. As expected of you, you are always able to please me. With that said, we should give the navy a toast and thank them for their hard work and preserving the wealth for us for such a long time." Bisarru loudly suppressed the clutter.
The pirates raised their glasses and said, "Come, let's salute the navy together."
"To the navy." All the pirates raised their glasses.
David also stood and raised his glass. He enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight very much. This feeling was just as wonderful as the woman before.
He also shouted: "Here's to the navy."
Chirp~~
boom!
David's words were still floating in the air, but with a sharp whistling sound, his upper body had disappeared, and countless pieces of flesh and blood sprayed out in all directions, covering the heads and faces of the pirates around him.
His head rolled down on the deck and happened to land in the arms of a pirate. The head with a piece of flesh and blood was facing up, and its eyes were directly facing the pirate holding it.
At this time, the pirate reacted and threw the head directly in his hand: "Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!" The deck, which had been filled with laughter and laughter, suddenly became a mess, and the group of pirates began to move in a panic.
boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of cannonballs was heard continuously. David's body fell to the ground. Unknown how many pirates stepped on him. Blood, flesh and wine spilled on the deck, mixing together, red, yellow, white and black intertwined.
A tragic Ukiyo-e.
But that head was thrown away unknown where.
Bisalu hid behind the thick mast and shouted loudly: "Counterattack, counterattack quickly! The lookout and helmsman quickly got into position. The lookout immediately reported the situation after they were in place. The gunner went to the cabin now and gave me a fierce counterattack.
Shoot out all the cannonballs! How dare you sneak attack our Whitebeard Pirates, we must make sure they never come back."
"The ship... Captain, it's the navy. It's the navy that attacked us. They have three warships occupying three directions. Only the northeast has a large gap."
"Then what are you waiting for? Helmsman, helmsman, turn to the northeast immediately."
"Captain, helmsman David is dead."
"Asshole, this damn guy." After Bisarru cursed, he jumped to the rudder of the ship and turned the rudder hard, causing the ship to make a squeaking sound, as if it was about to fall apart.
The hull of the ship also collapsed a lot. Many pirates were unable to control their bodies because they were drunk. At this time, they fell all of a sudden. Some even fell out of the ship and fell into the sea.
.
But Bisaru couldn't care anymore. He just wanted to escape from the navy's warships.
Even though the navy only has three warships, in terms of the density of artillery fire, even one ship cannot compare with it. The only thing that the pirates cannot compare with the navy is weapons and equipment.
The reason why he issued the order to counterattack was not to actually counterattack, but to reduce the weight of the ship so that he could escape from the naval bombardment.
As for the real counterattack, we should wait until they are a little safer.
…
…
On the navy ship, the flying squirrel in a striped suit held a long knife in one hand and an Allen telescope in the other, watching the situation of the Bisaru Pirates.
The fact that the first shell directly hit a pirate shocked him. Flying Squirrel was really afraid that the next shelling would directly destroy the ship here.
Fortunately, that cannonball was just an example. The accuracy of the subsequent cannonballs was greatly reduced under his request. Only a dozen or so cannonballs hit the pirate ship, and most of the cannonballs fell around the pirate ship.
On the sea surface, sprays of water more than ten meters high exploded.
In other words, although it looks a bit scary, this pirate ship is actually not very dangerous.
It's just that these pirates were having a party and drank a lot of wine, so their brains were not very clear and could not accurately judge the surrounding forms. In this case, they naturally had to flee for their lives first.
The direction of escape is naturally the gap left by the naval warships.
Just as Flying Squirrel expected, the ship turned around and prepared to escape from the gap. However, what Flying Squirrel didn't expect was that the pirate ship had no decent counterattack at all. With those cannonballs, Flying Squirrel believed that even if he died long ago,
Even if my grandmother came to be a gunner, it would be impossible for her to shoot so crookedly.
However, considering that this group of pirates had the audacity to hold a banquet after a robbery was not safe, this situation is also a normal phenomenon. The situation where Bisaru died in a shell attack did not happen, so what happened next?
He continued to perform.
"Commodore Flying Squirrel, why don't we aim at them? With their current situation, if we had aimed at the ship and opened fire again, all of them would have been buried under the sea by now?" A soldier finally asked what was in his heart.
doubts.
In fact, he was not the only one who was confused, many soldiers were confused. According to Flying Squirrel's previous behavior, the situation that the soldier just asked would happen. None of these pirates would be able to escape, instead of being like this now, they are about to rush in.
Out of the blockade were three warships of the navy.
The flying squirrel stroked his mustache, his expression still serious, and he asked: "Jiggs, can you fish?"
"Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel, don't look down on people. It's not like you who haven't fished a few times. I was a fisherman before I joined the navy. Fishing just requires good skills."
"cough……"
Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel blushed for a rare moment, but he still looked at the pirate ship in the distance without anyone noticing, "In that case, what do you think is the most important thing about fishing?"
What is the most important thing about fishing? The soldier named Giggs has never thought about this question, but out of his instinct as a former fisherman, he blurted out: "The most important thing about fishing is of course catching fish, otherwise
Why fishing?”
"That's right, the most important thing about fishing is the result. To be able to catch fish, not air force, this is the most fundamental meaning of fishing." The flying squirrel stretched out his hand and pointed at the pirate ship that was escaping in panic, amidst the sky full of gunfire.
He said calmly, "This boat is now a bait. If we want to catch big fish, we have to cast a long line and spread the bait out to attract what we want and achieve a greater harvest. Do you understand?"
"
Giggs didn't realize it.
He looked at Flying Squirrel with admiration: "Comrade Flying Squirrel is really awesome. Although your fishing skills are not good, what you say is really admirable. If I were to say it, I wouldn't be able to say something so reasonable."
"Otherwise I am a brigadier general and you are just a captain." The flying squirrel glanced at him lightly.
But this glance had no effect at all, because Giggs didn't see it at all, and he didn't seem to hear what the flying squirrel said, but was lost in thought.
After pausing for a few seconds, he suddenly raised his head: "Commodore Flying Squirrel, if Bisaru and the others are the bait, who is the big fish?"
"What do you think?" The flying squirrel's expression became more and more indifferent.
"Whitebeard! It must be Whitebeard!" Giggs shouted loudly, his expression mixed with excitement, shock, and a trace of fear, "Commodore Flying Squirrel, are we going to attack Whitebeard?"
Whoosh!
As Giggs finished speaking, the navy ship fell into a brief silence, and all the soldiers who heard the sound looked here.
