The Fruit of the Pirate's Mission

Chapter 18 The Pirates of Qis Island
East and Sonny prepared the necessary items to go to sea, bid farewell to Shields Island with some sadness, and embarked on a new journey.

This time out to sea, East's goal is Qisi Island, which is the island where Shu Ke and Beta's hometown is located.

Of course, there are reasons for this choice. First, Qis Island is relatively close to Shields Island, and it only takes two or three days to reach it by boat.

Second, there are delicious cheeses on Qis Island. After Sonny heard about it, he proposed to taste it at that time, and East was also interested.

Thirdly, there are Shu Ke and Beta whom East met on Qisi Island. Last time we chatted very happily. Although it was just a one-sided relationship, we became friends. The other party even invited me, and I went there by myself. Is it true that there is a local person as a "leading party".

Naturally, Easter would not treat himself and Sonny badly when sailing on the sea, and the boat he bought also had a good cabin.When it is raining and windy, you don’t have to suffer when you get inside, and you can have a good resting place with the sails folded at night.

According to the nautical chart of the surrounding islands he bought and the compass, East headed towards Qis Island.

The curved sail is indeed a good thing. No matter the wind is upwind or the wind is upwind, the ship can move forward, and when the wind is upwind, it can also reach the destination by sailing in a Z-shaped route, which at least reduces the time spent in East Sea.

During the day, East sails with sail except when eating, and unless there is no supply, East will not fish and eat fish at sea, in order to prevent ferocious sea beasts from attacking the boat

Leaving the ship at sea, the danger increases sharply, there is no place to stand, and human physical strength is limited.

If you are not a murloc or a mermaid on the great route, unless you have special abilities or are very strong, such as Aokiji, such as Rayleigh, otherwise you can only rely on luck on the sea.

East doesn't want to lose his ship. Even in the "calm" East China Sea, the merchant ship Titan was attacked and sank by an unknown sea beast not long ago. East doesn't want to encounter the monster in the sea.

East was lucky and didn't encounter any trouble. After two days of sailing, he arrived safely at Qi's Island, the destination this time.

Observing from a distance, East found that the area of ​​Qi's Island is actually not small. From this, East guessed that Qi's Island might not be well-known due to problems such as navigation and resources. The island itself should have heard of it.

After Easter logged in, he was stopped by the militiamen guarding the pier. Under what circumstances, the defense here was stricter than that of Shields Town.

In order to avoid trouble, East reported the names of Shuke and Beta, and the militiaman let down his vigilance a little bit and asked East to wait in place, and one of them went to look for Shuke.

East asked the little brother who stayed to "monitor" him what happened and why he was still "on duty".The little brother didn't answer, but said that he would wait until Shu Ke came.

Soon after, the militiamen who went to notify Shuke came with Shuke. After Shuke explained to the militiamen, East was exempted from "surveillance".

Afterwards, East was invited by Shuke to his residence and met Beta and a girl.

Shu Ke introduced each other to everyone. The girl was Shu Ke's cousin Millie, and East was naturally introduced as a friend of Shu Ke and Beta.

After introducing each other, before East asked anything, Shu Ke took the initiative to mention the matter of guarding the militia at the dock.

It turned out that Qisi Island was attacked by a small group of pirates yesterday, but they were repelled by the villagers because they found that there was no major loss in time.

However, some villagers discovered that the pirates were staying on a deserted island attached to Qis Island, and the other party did not seem to give up their plans to attack Qis Island.

Now the residents of Qisi Island are worried about this matter, so they have arranged militiamen to guard against it. If they find pirates attacking, they will send out an alarm, and everyone will resist the pirates' attack together. If they encounter strangers, they will also ask questions. Prevent pirates and spies from entering the island.

East has doubts, how to guard the pier can prevent pirate attacks and spies from entering Qisi Island.

Millie was the first to explain to East the special features of Qis Island.

Millie: "Kiss Island seems ordinary, but the places suitable for entering and leaving the island are all concentrated at the pier, and the other places are cliffs, which are difficult for ordinary people to climb."

"According to my speculation, this group of pirates should be a defeated pirate group. There are only a dozen of them, and their ability to be repelled by the villagers is limited. It is basically impossible to pass the cliffs in other places. They can only invade Qisi Island from the vicinity of the pier. Everyone Knowing the topography of Qis Island, it is only natural to arrange a guard at the pier."

"So that's it, then how do you plan to deal with these pirates? I hope I can help if needed. I really hate pirates who are misbehaving, and I don't mind solving them." East expressed his willingness to help.

Shu Ke said: "I advocate taking the initiative to attack and eliminate those pirates, but when the villagers discussed last night, many people supported the village chief's point of view, which is to defend and hope that the pirates will give up automatically when they run out of supplies."

"I also know that the village chief is worried about casualties and doesn't want to conflict with the other party. But although Beta and I haven't wandered in the sea for a long time, we also know the ferocity of pirates. Since they are eyeing Qisi Island, it is basically difficult Give up. And if he guarantees that the pirates will give up attacking Qis Island when they run out of supplies, I think it is more likely that the pirates will attack Qis Island before the supplies run out."

Millie and Beta also nodded beside them, obviously agreeing with Shu Ke's point of view.

East actually agreed with Shu Ke, saying: "The pirates are indeed cruel. Since they have set their sights on Qisi Island and are still staying nearby, I also think that the other party will take the initiative to attack us. It is possible that they were repelled yesterday. It’s just that the other party was caught off guard for a while, and when the other party made a comeback, for example, if the pirates took a night attack and couldn’t gather their manpower in time, it would be a little troublesome, and there might be casualties, or even a rout.”

Shu Ke sighed: "Yeah, just now we were thinking about how to deal with this matter, because of the lack of helpers, Beta and others are not the opponents of the pirates, so we received a notice that you are coming, and then put you I took it."

But East found the key: "Shu Ke, you said that there are residents of Qisi Island who agree with your proposition? How are they fighting?"

"Yes, there are still several residents who support the initiative. Their combat effectiveness is not bad. In this era, it is impossible to have basic self-protection power. They were very brave when resisting pirates yesterday. But the number is limited, and they are not pirates at all. Even if our opponents go to sneak attack, they will suffer great losses, and there is no guarantee of success."

"It doesn't matter, it's basically enough to add me, and if we go to sneak attack, the chances of winning are still very high."

Millie next to her spoke first again: "Esther, are you very good? Are you talking big and deceiving?"

"How did Millie talk, adults and children don't interrupt." Shu Ke also immediately stopped Millie's opening.

But Millie was not convinced: "Millie has grown up and is no longer a child."

"Okay, Shuke, it doesn't matter. From your description, I know the strength of the other pirates. They are not very strong, and they can be repelled by the villagers. Even if the other party is in a hurry, it also shows the strength of the other party. , The individual strength is probably not as good as Shu Ke and Beta."

"However, among the villagers, we are the only two stronger than each other, and the other villagers are slightly weaker than each other." Shuke affirmed East's conjecture with embarrassment.

"Then, in a head-on confrontation, I, East, can deal with five pirates at the same time without losing the wind, and can win. If it is a sneak attack, it is easy to solve the opponent. Me, Shuke, Beta, and several other villagers , go to attack the pirates, and basically guarantee zero casualties. But how to decide, you still need to make, after all, this is your island."

East showed his strength and opinions, and waited for the opponent to make a decision. If the opponent chose to attack the pirates, East would naturally help. If he chose to give up the attack, East didn't care.
