Chapter 259: Spotlight
Karoso was about to stop Elizabeth when he saw bullet comments starting to pop out wildly.
[Wow, the story has begun]
[Elizabeth’s highlight moment; she directly dragged Silent Mary into the abyss and still managed to steer the ship out]
[At that moment, Elizabeth seemed to be possessed by something, charging forward fiercely]
[Alright, the story is fully connected; there are other reasons Elizabeth came to this time besides being a thief]
[Yes, there is also an Elizabeth Swann in this time, but she has been replaced by Elizabeth]
[They shared the same name, both longing for the sea and freedom, and with Elizabeth’s spirit of a thief, she arrived in this era.]
[That Elizabeth is the future queen of the sea; it’s just that part of history has been buried.]
[This queen of the sea is truly remarkable; on this journey, she is the only one who survived.]
[How can I put it? This Elizabeth truly yearned for freedom and adventure, and she didn’t do anything as grand as Tige, who directly attacked a country’s capital.]
[In the end, Queen Elizabeth, like Tige, chose to sail into the Forbidden Sea and then vanished without a trace.]
[It seems that Elizabeth has gained her inherited powers from this era.]
[Uh… it might be a bit complicated to explain; the future Elizabeth came to this time, and after thirty years, she passed her powers to the Elizabeth of this era.]
Karoso saw a long bullet comment that summarized with one key phrase: Don’t stop the present Elizabeth.
Karoso is someone who listens well to advice; he quickly picked up the pistol and said loudly, "Now that Elizabeth is at the helm, everyone, take your positions! We’re going to fight a naval battle in the whirlpool!"
"Once, our battles were fought in calm seas, and no one could outdo the other."
"Today, we must decide who will win and who will lose!"
"This vast ocean has found the perfect battlefield for us."
"The winner will take the title of God of War!"
"The loser will sink into the abyss."
"Set sail, let the storm guide our way, and let them see who the true ruler of the sea is!"
When it comes to sailing, Karoso isn’t great, but when it comes to commanding and lifting spirits, Karoso definitely shines.
Even though he leads a crew of pirates, Karoso has a good understanding of their style.
"Well said!" Tige laughed in the air, "This is my son, just like me! Saladache, are you brave enough to keep fighting and see whose ship will fall into the abyss?"
"What is there to be afraid of?" Saladache scoffed, "Are there no one left on the Black Pearl to steer the ship but a little girl?"
"Even a little girl can make you die in a very rhythmic way," a glint of cold light shone in Tige’s eyes.
Bang!
The two weapons clashed once more.
If someone weaker came to their battlefield, they would find that as soon as they entered the range of their fight, they would be crushed by an unknown force.
By the ninth level, the fight would already start to involve rules.
Around the two, even space began to ripple.
Pfft…
At that moment, a line of blood suddenly appeared on Tige’s face.
Upon seeing the wound Tige had, Saladache was overjoyed, "I didn’t expect you to have fought before! Hmm, you have used up a lot of your strength…"
Saladache is not the kind of person who waits for you to be at your best to challenge you.
He and Tige are both pirates, and they believe in striking when you are weak.
"Killing you is enough!" Tige said in a deep voice.
Just like Karoso thought, Tige paid a high price just to ask Karoso a few questions, or even just to remember to ask those questions.
Karoso looked up at Tige; he sure knows how to take risks…
I believe Elizabeth has confidence because of the bullet comment; where does he get his confidence from?
I must say, just Tige’s boldness is very much like Osiris.
With just one glance, Tige felt that Elizabeth could be the one to steer the ship, and he completely trusted her, even though he had looked down on her before and wasn’t afraid she would seek revenge now.
"Elizabeth, I am here to protect you!"
At that moment, Will had already assembled his skeletal frame and immediately came to Elizabeth’s side.
He glanced silently at Karoso but didn’t say anything; he still thought Karoso had taken care of Elizabeth yesterday…
Even now, still fawning over Elizabeth, one can only say that such a person is truly frightening.
The ship was shaking violently and soon reached the edge of the whirlpool.
The Silent Mary across was not to be outdone and also headed towards the whirlpool.
Bang!
When both ships entered the whirlpool, Karoso and the others noticed that the magic suddenly became thin.
"This is…"
Karoso suddenly thought of the ocean in the future world, when there would be thin magic, right?
Karoso looked up and noticed endless magic gathering around the two people above.
A part of the magic was rushing into the Black Pearl and Silent Mary, which was making the magic here unusually thin.
"Wow? So many sharks!"
"Oh no, there are sea monsters."
"Damn, is Silent Mary trying to be sneaky?"
Karoso turned to look, and outside the whirlpool, many large sharks and tentacled monsters were swirling around.
If Elizabeth wasn’t running toward the whirlpool, Black Pearl would have to fight the enemy’s sea monster army before facing Silent Mary.
Just from the sea monsters that Karoso and the others defeated earlier, three had already appeared.
Here, an eighth-tier person can fight against one, but how many people would that take to hold back?
Karoso finally understood how right and decisive Elizabeth’s decision was.
"Take control of the winch and put in more effort!" Elizabeth shouted.
At that moment, she felt a surge of power within her.
All the sailing knowledge she had learned before swirled in her mind, even expanding to things she had never studied.
How to use the wind, rain, and seawater, and even how to steer the Black Pearl, was clearly shown in her mind.
The Black Pearl felt like it came to life, talking to her and sharing knowledge about itself and the Forbidden Sea.
Elizabeth’s heart raced wildly.
Just now, it was as if she was on a high; she didn’t even know where she found the courage to fight Karoso for control of the ship.
But with the helm in hand, they could only hold on.
Elizabeth looked around at the pirates and realized that sailing in the Forbidden Sea was not an easy task.
Below the seventh tier, it really was no different from going to one’s doom.
Just raising the sails alone was impossible without being at least eighth tier.
Not to mention anyone else, even Will, being at the seventh tier, was tossed around like a leaf.
Karoso tightly gripped a pole to keep himself from falling.
Boom, boom…
In an instant, the sky filled with flashes of lightning and thunder.
Rain poured down on Karoso’s face, making it hard for him to even open his eyes.
Elizabeth snatched a pirate’s hat and placed it directly on her head.
"Raise the sails, you bunch of fools, you’re too slow!" Elizabeth shouted. "If we’re going to die, let’s make it quick!"
"Hey, she’s sounding a bit like a captain now."
"Hahaha… a little girl is going to be our captain."
"The captain has spoken, let her steer the ship!"
"Yes, even if a woman is at the helm, we can still win!"
"Hahaha, the little girl is finally talking like a pirate."
"Damn it, after we defeat them, I’m going to kick your butt with my boot!"
"Don’t underestimate this girl; if it weren’t for her, we would have to deal with the sea monster."
"Are you really afraid of these sea monsters?"
The pirates didn’t think much of it; they believed Tige had the upper hand, which is why he let Elizabeth steer the ship.
In their eyes, if the holy F2A could win, was there a need for skill?
Elizabeth narrowly avoided the attack from the sea monsters, and they saw it as just good luck.
"They cannot destroy us; we will sail full speed into the abyss!" shouted the helmsman on the other ship. "There can only be one ghost ship in this world, and that is our ship!"
"It’s getting closer!" Karoso forced his eyes open and took on the role of Elizabeth’s lookout.
"Sail into the wind, do not be afraid!" Images began to flash in Elizabeth’s mind, as if she briefly foresaw the future, "Cannons, prepare!"
Both ships entered the whirlpool, with the Black Pearl in front and the Silent Mary behind.
Boom, boom, boom…
A cannonball from the Magic Cannon blasted toward the Black Pearl, and many cannonballs exploded on the Black Pearl.
"We are getting hit without a chance to fight back!"
"Damn it, I said women can’t be trusted."
"Taking a woman to sea will only bring bad luck."
"Trust the captain; he will win soon, just like before!"
"Elizabeth, let me take the wheel." The bald man hurried to Elizabeth’s side; he felt that if this continued, after the captain won, Elizabeth would be torn apart by the undead.
At that time, he would definitely not be able to protect Elizabeth.
"Trust her!" Karoso shouted.
"This…" The bald man’s face turned pale and then flushed.
"Young master, be careful! I will help you!"
Just then, the pirate who first took Karoso outside came to his side.
He kicked a cannonball away with one foot.
He looked a bit like Saaya, and Karoso remembered him quite well.
It seems he is just a lackey…
An eighth-tier pirate, yet he wore a smile that looked eager to please Karoso.
Clearly, the situation on this ship is very complicated.
In any era, except during the gods’ great war, an eighth-tier character stands out, yet he is still groveling.
Of course, it could also be that he is too obsessed with his physical form.
"What is your name?" Karoso yelled at him.
"My name is Saaya, sir!" Saaya replied.
Karoso: …
This feeling is strong; he looks like Second Brother, his name is similar to Second Brother, but his character is different.
What is this? Is this really the past? Am I sure this is not a world imagined by Elizabeth and me?
A dog-like version of Second Brother, that’s too funny.
Just as Saaya was shielding Karoso from the wind and rain, the speed of the Black Pearl visibly increased.
Both ships were sailing in the whirlpool; just now, the Silent Mary was chasing the Black Pearl using the cannons at the front of the ship.
And now, the Black Pearl’s hull was aimed directly at the Silent Mary!
"Fire!"
At Elizabeth’s command, countless cannonballs flew toward that direction.
"Fire!"
Silent Mary also ordered to fire immediately, but they were still a bit slow.
Boom, boom…
One by one, cannonballs exploded against the ship, sending many souls flying out of the cabin.
They struggled desperately in the air, trying to return to the ship with their extraordinary power, only to find with shock that they could not!
Not only that, their magic was being drained wildly toward the Forbidden Sea.
"This sea… is troubling!"
"Help me, help me!"
The spirits could even run on normal seas, but in this Forbidden Sea, they could only wail as they were pulled into the whirlpool. Even being eighth-tier masters didn’t help them!
Just from this round of cannon fire, Elizabeth gained the upper hand and took advantage.
But, the good situation didn’t last long. The opponent was also an experienced helmsman who gradually learned to use the currents of the whirlpool and organized their attack.
Boom, boom…
The two ships were firing cannons wildly, and one by one, the spirits fell into the sea.
"Help me, this is the Forbidden Sea!"
"Damn it, Magic Cannon!"
"Hide…"
Boom!
The undead pirates were thrown into chaos by the blast; for a moment, more than ten eighth-tier masters couldn’t even fight back and were sucked into the whirlpool.
During that round of cannon fire, sixteen people from the Black Pearl were lost, while thirty-three from the Silent Mary perished. If Elizabeth told anyone about this outcome of the extraordinary pirate battle, it would be enough to brag about for a lifetime.
Karoso quietly watched the sky.
Does the battle of ninth-tier masters have such a big effect?
No, records say ninth-tier masters aren’t this strong.
Then…
How close is Tige to god-level?
"Elizabeth, be careful!"
Just at that moment, a cannonball came crashing towards Elizabeth.
Will swayed unsteadily, but he did not have the strength to help Elizabeth and could only shout.
Karoso moved, ready to let this Saaya try out the power of the Magic Cannon.
But, there was someone who was faster.
The bald pirate leaped into the air and slashed at the cannonball with his sword.
Boom!
The cannonball exploded in the air, and the bald pirate was thrown towards the sea by the impact.
"Uncle!" Elizabeth’s face went pale.
Once you enter this Forbidden Sea, you can’t come back!
"Take good care of your mother!" The bald man could only throw back the dagger he carried.
A large hand made of water reached out from the swirling sea and grabbed the bald pirate, pulling him into the water.
Elizabeth opened her mouth.
I don’t even know his name…
Although this is the past, and you could even say it’s like a dream, Elizabeth had not experienced a dungeon, so she saw this place as a real world.
No matter what the bald pirate was like, he really cared for Elizabeth.
Bang!
The dagger landed beside Elizabeth.
Life and death come too quickly…
"Elizabeth." Karoso shouted, but Elizabeth did not respond at all.
Karoso quickly took out the Communication Card, "Now is not the time to be sad. If you don’t hurry and come back to us, not only will he die, but I will too, and so will you! Don’t forget, you are the captain now!"
