Pirates are here to rob us?! (Third update)
After several days of comfortable and pleasant voyage, Shen Bao encountered unprecedented great trouble.
This big trouble is actually quite funny - he was pestered by a little loli.
Since then, the little loli was deeply shocked by Shen Bao's fierce and evil aura after he extorted 200,000 Beli. She had never thought that a person's life could be so unrestrained!
She would often sneak into Shangbao's room, each time with a sufficient reason: wanting to take one last look at her beloved octopus pet before leaving. However, her true intention was to persuade Shangbao to form a pirate crew and ask to join!
Originally, Shen Bao would not have agreed, but he thought that he indeed had no experience in raising octopuses, and seeing the hot air balloon octopus becoming thinner day by day, he was also secretly worried. Therefore, when facing Xiaoluo's pure and clear eyes for the first time, he unexpectedly nodded his head.
After the first time, it was only natural that there would be a second and third time for Shao Bao and Xiao Luoli... (Don't think wildly, okay.)
After many encounters, Shao Bao finally discovered that this little loli was actually very wild.
The little loli's name is Christina, and she's 10 years old. She was involved in an accident from birth and got separated from her parents, drifting out to sea. Fortunately, she was taken in by a passing pirate crew and stayed with them until her parents found her, spending 100 million Berries to buy her back. During this time, she actually spent a whole 10 years as a pirate!
The pirate's life gave her an extraordinary wild heart, and the vast blue sea also gave her a particularly romantic youth fantasy.
"In fact, I really like the pirate life! I don't want to be a rich lady who stays at home all day!" The little girl had a lively and free-spirited heart, and her actions were very strong, which made Shen Bao, a 20-year-old otaku, feel ashamed.
"It's a pity, she was just about to become an official gunner! Unfortunately, at the critical moment, such a thing happened!" The little loli thought she was quite skilled as a gunner, but in Shenhao's eyes, it was just the arrogance of youth. (Author: Come on, how old are you?! ) Every time she mentioned that she was about to be promoted to an official crew member and master her own unique cannon, her face would be filled with unfulfilled desire and regret, her pouting mouth could hang a oil bottle.
So a certain unscrupulous transmigrator always teases her about this, and every time little loli gets angry, her adorable little face turns bright red, haha, it's really interesting.
"Shen Bao brother, I think you're a despicable and shameless person, truly a talented individual who could become the most evil pirate of our time. As soon as people see you, they're deeply intimidated by the aura of dominance emanating from you, their minds are completely stunned. If you were to form a pirate crew, I'd be the first to ask to join!"
Shen Bao rolled her eyes every time she heard this classic nonsense, and said helplessly: "Forget it, little Nana, you little brat, do you think I'll take you to run away from home? Don't even think about it. Hurry up and feed my octopus, or else I'll kidnap you and demand ransom!"
The little loli's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she hastily said: "Then quickly abduct me, quickly abduct me, come on, come on!"
A precious thing is a black thread on a white jade.
……
Such a scene was almost performed every day, and the two of them teasing each other also added a bit of fun to the increasingly dull and tasteless sea journey. But on this day, just as the two were talking nonsense, an unexpected situation occurred.
"What's going on? Why is it so noisy outside?" Shén Bǎo stood up, hearing the sudden commotion outside the cabin door.
"Then I'll go take a look." With that, little Cristina walked out of the room, her swift and decisive action leaving Xinbao stunned.
Before long, Little Nana ran back, her face filled with excitement: "Great, a pirate gang has come to rob us!"
Shen Bao was speechless all of a sudden.
He hastily walked out of the house, took a distant look, and indeed saw an old black wooden pirate ship coming towards him. On the deck, there were panicked crowds running around, shouting: "It's bad! The pirate gang is here to rob us!"
Shen Bao was also secretly worried, he had a clear understanding of himself, letting him fight against the pirates was absolutely impossible, but if he let the pirates do as they pleased and rob them, then not to mention his three barrels of high-priced Huo Long Shao Mei wine, even the 2 million Berries that were extorted from him would make him heartbroken.
"What's the panic, stand still for me! Anyone else makes a sound, I'll feed him to the sharks!" Shao Bao shouted loudly, but in his heart he was thinking: It's better to rely on oneself than others, now he can only save himself!
The deck fell silent, with everyone standing still in silence. These people were mostly merchants from Shang Town Island, and their profit-driven nature made them panic like headless flies when faced with a life crisis. But with Shen Bao's loud shout, they seemed to have found their backbone, and one by one, they cast hopeful glances at our merman.
Shen Bao was originally tall and muscular, giving off a sense of security at first glance. After several days of being the boss on the boat, he had already established an image of being the strongest in the group of merchants. So when Shen Bao stood up, they grasped him like a lifeline, and surprisingly obeyed his every word.
"What... where is the captain?" Shěn Bǎo was stared at by this gaze and felt a bit numb, so he had to stiffen his scalp and start working.
"I... I am..." Then, a fat businessman who was trembling all over walked out of the crowd.
"I'd say... these guys are greedy for wealth but not their lives!" Xian Bao took one look and knew that this person was an amateur merchant who temporarily took on the role of a captain, otherwise he wouldn't be so incompetent. A seasoned captain who has been sailing the high seas for a long time, how could he be in such a sorry state?
"How many firearms are there on the ship, how many big guns, get them all out for me!" Having traversed from a technologically advanced world, Xinbao still had a deep-seated superstition about the power of firearms in his subconscious mind, so he wanted to set up a firepower blockade line at the first opportunity.
But little did he know that the captain's next words would make him feel like falling into an icy pit.
"Reporting... sir, this ship, uh, this ship isn't equipped with any cannons."
"Damn it!" Shén Bǎo couldn't help but blurt out a curse.
Just as he was about to give up, a certain merchant in the crowd stuttered and said: "I... I... have a treasured cannon. I am willing to contribute it, and I hope that when you use it, you will cherish it more."
"What?! " Shen Bao's eyes lit up, and his mind suddenly cleared: "Yes, this ship is full of all sorts of goods, some firearms are also necessary." As soon as he had this thought, he immediately spoke out: "This is a matter of life and death, whether you can hold onto these riches depends on you! How much combat material do you have, hurry up and contribute it, otherwise when the time comes for an honest search of the ship's cabins, whoever is found to be selfishly hoarding will have everything confiscated!"
He shouted, and immediately another merchant said: "I have 50 fire-striking guns, willing to contribute." "I have 10 pieces of bright silver half-body armor, also willing to take out temporarily." "I also have 25 knives and swords that can be taken out for sharing."
"Good! Good! Good!" Shěn Bǎo said three good words in a row, and then ordered: "Xiǎo Nà, go and manipulate that cannon. Don't seek to annihilate the enemy, just try to block them for a moment." Xiǎo Luó Lì heard this and responded crisply with a "Got it!", happily jumping up more than three feet high.
"You, you, and you." Jinbao pointed out a few strong men, "Follow me to move the swords! And you, call that sword leader, our team is still counting on those seven!"
"No need to look anymore, we're here!" As soon as the words fell, the leader of the swordsmen led his six subordinates over from a distance. At this moment, his eyes looking at Shen Bao were complex beyond measure. Just a few days ago, they were still enemies, but now they had to fight side by side!
Life is indeed weird and plays tricks on people!
