The Mysterious Journey of the Pirate World

Chapter 7 Five Ways
The Liberty Asterisk is a three-masted sailing ship, with the mainsail hanging from the front two masts, and the mast behind the captain's cabin at the stern is a jib, that is, a sail that cooperates with the rudder to steer the ship.

The rudder wheel is connected to the rudder blade under the boat, and the direction is changed by swinging the rudder blade. However, steering requires the helmsman to have an almost instinctive judgment on the wind, the current, and the delay between the rudder blade and the rudder wheel, but it is not a matter of strength and ability. Just turn the steering wheel.

And Lightoller is not a "helmsman", but a "helmsman" - at the same time, he also takes into account the responsibility of directing the sailors to pull the jib line, rather than simply obeying the captain's orders to steer.

Because it is a merchant ship, only the bow has two gun positions, and there are four deck guns. There is no special gun bay under the deck.

And the professional warships of the Navy—four or five-masted, armored hulls, two densely packed side guns in the cabins below the deck, and large-caliber bow and stern guns in the bow and stern—naturally complete Can't compare.

"Leave the artillery command to me! I like these big guys." said a middle-aged man with rotten teeth and puffy eyes.

"Okay! From now on you will be the captain of the ship's gunner." D'Artagnan patted his shoulder with the ridge of his sword.

It's the same for Lightoller just now, I don't know where the custom is.

"Come to me who can use these big guys! And the little brat who can't stand still, come and help!" The gunner immediately shouted.

The crew on the Star of Liberty were fairly "versatile". After D'Artagnan said hello, several crew members who could use artillery immediately went to the gun emplacement to take their place, and the ammunition and the fire were hung on the twist. Just waiting for the order to fire.

Some of the "crews" who wandered bravely had insufficient combat power and could not understand the command of the boat, and were also classified as "gunners".

Sieg felt that he had become more capable of fighting, so he kept holding the sword and signaled that he would be a combatant.

boom--

boom--

The navy had already fired, and most of the shells fell into the water with little accuracy, but some rushed to the deck.

At this time, you can also see the limitations of "the ship's strong guns" - I saw D'Artagnan's figure flashed, and he had already jumped onto the bow of the ship. Under the slashing with his sword, the sword-qi slash would fall directly on the deck. Cannonballs are flying...

In contrast, the guns on the merchant ships obviously have a much closer range. Even if someone has urged them, the new commander of the guns still stares at the opposite side expressionlessly, and has not ordered to fire.

Fortunately, in the era of the great pirates, the strength of the ship is only a part of the naval battle, and the battle of the ship is the more important decisive point!
Zig has now joined the ranks of the combatants bundling barrels...

Merchant ships apparently couldn't find enough "grabbing hooks"—that is, a combination of iron hooks and ropes to hook onto each other's decks, enough to keep two ships close enough to each other. , take the springboard directly

Intrepid combatants will directly wear the rope of the grappling hook to force the opponent's deck, which is usually special equipment for pirates.

Without a grappling hook, it becomes more difficult to catch the boat, but for the crew of the era of the great pirates, there are other ways.

For example, someone has explained to Zig now that there is no grappling hook, then use a rope to tie the heavy object, and when it gets close, throw it directly at the other party's mast!

Fortunately, there are a lot of ropes on the boat, which should be used to bundle the goods before.

As long as it can be wrapped around the mast, it has the same function as the grappling hook, but... the need for strength is much greater, such as the wooden barrels that Ziger is bundling, which contains hundreds of pounds of seawater, and then Just to throw this thing away.

"Hey! Boy, don't flick your waist." A big mouth next to him looked at Zig and smiled.

Zig just patted his biceps to show it was okay.

As a whole, it has risen to Sequence Eight, and the five "professionals" are - Reasoning Student, Mind Reader, Furious People, Listener, and Prayer for Light.

Among them, "reasoning student" is the advancement of "reader", which is the easiest ability for Zig to understand among the five sequence eights.

It has greatly improved his observation and logical reasoning abilities, and the former can be regarded as the prototype of the domineering and domineering.

The needs of the "acting method" are also very simple. You can investigate more things and do detective work, and you can improve if you want to.

Another thing that is related to the domineering of seeing and hearing is the advancement of "mind readers" - "audience". As the name suggests, the ability to observe has gone from the surface to the inside, and the judgment of expressions, eyes and expressions has a new level. Understand, in this world, Ziger speculates that this is the prototype of a special kind of domineering.

Although he has not practiced systematically, in Mary Joa, when he came into contact with other slaves, Ziger was also immersed in a lot of power systems in this world.

After all, many of Mary Joa's slaves could be called "masters" outside.

When it comes to the power system in this world, "domineering" cannot be bypassed. For ordinary people, there are only two types of "armed domineering" and "seeing domineering", and there is a third "overlord" Domineering", claiming to have the aptitude of one out of millions of people in order to have...

Of course, considering the population of this world, with such a large base, it is not surprising that there are a hundred or so tyrannical and domineering people.

Armament-colored domineering can be understood as attack and defense, and knowledge-colored domineering can be understood as insight and perception.

In addition, there are some characteristics that vary from person to person. For example, Zig knows Roger and Luffy's domineering in the original work, and can listen to the voice of all things; Katakuri's domineering and domineering can briefly predict the future; Thorpe has exerted abilities similar to those of super far sight...

Some of these "characteristics" were born after cultivation to the extreme, and some seemed to be talents, which appeared when they were only prototypes.

Zig had long guessed that his ability was not the real way of God, but only the part that could adapt to this world.

That is to say, the domineering rudiment of one's own knowledge, because the "Mind Reader" series of God's pathways have the characteristic of being biased towards observing people's hearts.

When performing the "acting method", one should tend to "observe the mental activity of others".

And the Sequence Eight of these two ways of the gods is not obvious for the improvement of force. In contrast, the effect of the "Rage People" who has advanced to the "Sailor" is much more violent - the increase in strength brought about by the improvement of physique , increased speed, and enhanced naval combat capabilities...

And just like the name, in the state of anger, the physique will be greatly improved!

For his role, Zig was a little confused - probably... to play the irritable person?Is it to pretend to be angry, or do you have to be really angry all the time?

As for the remaining two "listeners" and "light praying people", Ziger has no clue for the time being.

The "listeners" in "Lord of Mysteries" are considered "must be lunatics or hidden lunatics" because they can hear the whispers of hidden beings, gain powerful but twisted knowledge, make it difficult for them to remain rational, and this is Passive, unable to avoid it on its own...

However, in this world, Ziger speculates that it may be because there are no other high-sequence existences, so he is at a loss as to the "listener" and cannot hear any whispers. The advantage is safety, but the disadvantage is that Ziger does not know how to "play".

Can you be considered a "listener" by listening to ordinary people?

It seems to be possible in terms of nouns, but Zig always feels that it is not so simple.

However, judging from its lower Sequence Nine "Secret Prayer", it can be improved by praying to the Devil Fruit, and perhaps the "Listener" should also explore this aspect.

"Light Prayer" also puzzled Ziger, whose Sequence Nine was "Singer", which indeed made Ziger's singing have some inspiring abilities other than beautiful and pleasant.

In fact, the "Singer" played by Ziger before was very slow, and he could probably guess the reason - the essence of the "Singer" is not "singing", but "singing the sun".

As a singer, I sing for those stupid pigs, but it doesn't really fit the core, so the progress is very slow, and it took two years to succeed.

And Zig actually tried to sing praises to the sun in private, but it didn't work. Thinking about it is inevitable, after all, the "sun" in "Master of Mysteries" is the existence of Sequence 0, not just stars. But the sun in this world obviously does not have such a symbol and function.

Therefore, Zig is also at a loss for the role and ability development of this department.

……

It was too late to think about it, when Ziger tied the barrel, the hull shook abruptly, obviously the cabin below had been shot!
I can already see the navy on the deck of the battleship, with a look of anticipation for meritorious service!
The gunner commander also ordered at this time: "Fire!"
