“Safra?”
Looking at the heavily made-up woman in front of him, Du Ge sighed silently in his heart. None of the candidates had come forward to oppose him. They were all too good at survival. What were they really thinking?
Giving up on competing for first place?
And with nearly five hundred people, how long would it take for him to clear them out?
“It’s me, the esteemed Paul Walls, captain of the Sea Fish Pirates. Safra is willing to submit to you in exchange for the peace of Phoenix Tail Island. You are the true king of the pirates.” Safra bowed gracefully to Du Ge and said bitterly.
“Safra, do you have a fragment of the Fate Sea Map?” Du Ge asked directly.
“I have one.” Safra hesitated for a moment, then took out a yellowed sheepskin map from her pocket and held it up respectfully.
Du Ge took the Fate Sea Map, opened it, and glanced at it.
There were only a few unnamed islands and an unmarked route on the map. Nothing could be discerned from this map alone.
He drew a line on the map with his sword.
The map was intact.
It was real!
This was the mission item!
Du Ge sneered and stuffed the map into his pocket. “Safra, are you willing to submit to me?”
“Great King of the Ocean, I am willing,” Safra said, bowing her head and kneeling on one knee.
The situation was stronger than the person. Since she couldn’t kill Paul, surrendering to him was the best choice.
Du Ge glanced at her, then suddenly flashed in front of her and slashed her arm with the Dragon Sword.
Safra cried out in pain and looked up at Du Ge in confusion. She endured the pain and said shakily, “Lord Paul, I have already submitted. I have been operating on Phoenix Tail Island for many years and can help you conquer the entire South Sea, and of course, the North Sea as well. The eldest son of Lorang Swan, Amy Swan, just died in an accident. With the armed forces of the South Sea and the North Sea, conquering Mahamadu and Jon Ludi is only a matter of time. Conquering the Four Seas, even without the Trident of the Sea God, you are the true king of the ocean.”
Not a candidate!
Safra’s wound showed no signs of healing. Du Ge shook his head and took out a bottle of healing potion, throwing it to her. “Safra, this is the witch’s healing potion. Apply it to your wound, then gather all the pirates and residents on Phoenix Tail Island. I want to search for the heretics hidden among them.”
If they don’t come out, I’ll force them out…
Let’s see who can outplay who?
“Heretics?” Safra was stunned.
“Yes, a group of magical people with unique abilities. I thought there would be a few such helpers by the side of the King of the South Sea. Who knew that group of people would disappoint me so much.” Du Ge shook his head disdainfully.
“Paul, let’s cooperate!”
A sigh, and a figure walked out of the cabin, carrying a hammer in his hand, his sailor’s uniform dirty, covered in paint and wood chips.
“Mans, what are you doing?” the first mate shouted at him.
Safra looked at the sailor who had come out in surprise.
The sailor Mans smiled bitterly and never took his eyes off Du Ge. “I am the heretic he mentioned. I can’t hide anymore. Instead of waiting to die, I’d rather take the initiative and seek a way out.”
“What is your keyword?” Du Ge asked.
“Repair,” Mans said, shaking the hammer in his hand. “A keyword that has no combat power at all. You don’t have to worry that I will damage your interests. I just want to survive until the end.”
He raised the hammer in his hand and lightly tapped the broken mast hit by a cannonball.
A miraculous thing happened.
As if time had flowed backward, the fallen mast stood up again, and the scattered wood chips returned to their original positions one by one.
In the blink of an eye, the mast was restored to its original state.
Seeing this scene, Safra and everyone on the ship were stunned.
“Good as new, this is my advanced skill,” Mans shrugged. “I haven’t figured out what role it can play in this world yet. But if you spare my life, I can help you repair all the damaged warships. I see that your warships have a high rate of damage…”
Damn!
A master craftsman!
But far worse at maintenance.
No, wait.
Repair also includes maintenance. He misunderstood the direction of the keyword’s growth.
Du Ge shook his head and asked, “Can you repair people?”
Mans shook his head. “No, only items.”
Safra glared at Mans as she applied medicine to her arm, gritting her teeth. This fool had such a miraculous ability and didn’t know to come out and serve her. Do you know how difficult it is to build a warship? If he had come out earlier, all the old warships in the harbor would have been useful. How large would her fleet be?
And.
With your repair speed so fast, we wouldn’t be afraid of Enke, right?
Even if Enke dismantles quickly, it’s not as fast as your repairs!
Most importantly, there are so many heretics on Phoenix Tail Island…
But not one of them has come out to help him voluntarily. They have to wait until Paul kills them before they take the initiative to come out.
It’s really unbelievable!
…
“Do you have any other skills?” Du Ge asked.
Mans shook his head.
Have you ever thought about repairing this broken world?
Du Ge muttered in his heart, too lazy to remind him, and instead took out the map fragment he had just put in his pocket. “Come, repair this.”
Mans looked at the fragment of the Fate Sea Map in Du Ge’s hand, dumbfounded, and his eyes twitched uncontrollably. After a long time, he sighed bitterly and wished he could hit himself on the head with a hammer. “I’m really a fool!”
“Take me into the top ten, and I’ll help you repair the map,” Mans gritted his teeth and made a condition.
“Deal,” Du Ge agreed readily.
“Can I trust you?” Mans asked.”Of course,” Du Ge nodded with a smile, “Guess why Antonio attacked Mahamadu? It’s because General Mikaro also has our people there. It’s useful and not dangerous, so why not stay? Your skills are meant to be supportive, aren’t they? Supporting me is surely more profitable than supporting others! Besides, your life is in my hands, why not take a gamble?”
Mans looked at Du Ge, fell silent for a moment, walked up to him, and smashed his hammer onto the Destiny Sea Chart in his hand.
Bang!
As the hammer struck the sea chart.
Whoosh!
The sound of something cutting through the air was heard.
Another sea chart of the same material flew from behind Du Ge, automatically sticking onto the one in his hands.
Du Ge turned around to see Martha lunging to the side of the ship, reaching out to grab the sea chart.
He couldn’t help but laugh silently.
Goodness, he had another chart hidden, his preparations were indeed thorough…
Seeing the second sea chart flying over, Safra’s eyes widened, her breathing quickened, she clenched her fists tightly, and her angry gaze seemed to pierce through Mans, “Idiot, this idiot, if only he had shown his skills earlier, the Destiny Sea Chart would have been hers.”
Having found the Trident of the Sea God and exchanged for the Feather of the Sea God from Janseni, she was already the Pirate King.
Meanwhile.
Mahamadu, who was confronting Antonio without falling behind, suddenly felt his pocket sink. He instinctively covered it, only to grasp at air, watching helplessly as the Destiny Sea Chart in his pocket flew towards the sky.
Mahamadu’s eyes turned red in an instant, and he roared through clenched teeth, “Damn it, which bastard’s keyword is theft? Pass my order, destroy that bastard’s ship ahead…”
On an unnamed island.
A young man in his twenties opened a treasure chest and took out a yellowed Destiny Sea Chart with a smile on his face, “Who needs divination? Probability is the most powerful keyword, no one will find the complete Destiny Sea Chart before me.”
The next second.
His hand loosened.
The Destiny Sea Chart suddenly broke free from his grasp and flew away, his eyes reddening instantly, “Damn it, who did this? A blatant robbery! Fuck, how did my winning odds drop to zero?”
…
In Mikaro’s drawer, a sunken ship at the bottom of the sea…
One sea chart after another was summoned by a powerful restorative force.
Ten minutes later.
A complete Destiny Sea Chart had assembled in Du Ge’s hands.
