traveler among pirates

Chapter 6 Scarlet

Hughes stood on the top of the mountain in the distance, quietly watching the huge cherry blossom tree tilting with the ground.

Gollum~

After taking a sip of wine, Hughes turned and left with the flagon in his left hand and the red knife in his right.

Seeing that the cherry tree didn't fall completely, Hughes was still relieved. After all, Hughes still has feelings for this tree, and it would be best if nothing happened.

-

Hughes was shirtless, sitting cross-legged on a rock, looking down at the red knife placed on his legs.

"It's not like a demon sword."

When Hughes saw the knife for the first time, he thought it was a brutal knife.

After all, the coercion it exudes is so amazing, and the crimson blade is still entwined with strange blood smoke.

But after Hughes fully grasped the knife, the coercion of the blade seemed to disappear, as if it had become an ordinary long knife.

If one ignores its slender body and the strange red blade.

"Well."

Hughes inserted the long knife into the rock. Under the sharpness of the red knife, the rock was as soft and fragile as tofu. A section of the knife pierced deeply into the rock, and Hughes backed away slowly.

On the surface of the red knife, obvious blood smoke began to emerge, lingering around the blade, and the surrounding aura changed.

A coercion gradually emerged, and the blood smoke gradually increased, burning like a flame, adhering to the surface of the blade, and rising up.

click~
Cracks began to appear in the rock, and the surrounding stones began to tremble up and down under the pressure.

Roar!Roar!Roar!
The birds and beasts in the nearby jungle began to flee in all directions, and their intuition was telling them to stay away from this place quickly, or they would die!
Even the overlord of this mountain, Sakura, whose body is like a hill.

It also couldn't stand the increasing coercion, let out a roar, and ran away quickly.

When Hughes stepped forward and held the knife again.

The coercion around him disappeared in an instant, and the aura that could disturb the space before seemed to be an illusion.

"."

Hughes took a closer look at the knife, and a scarlet character was faintly engraved on the joint between the blade and the blade, and there was a thin layer of red smoke winding around the surface of the blade.

Hughes held Chidao Fei, and after thinking for a while, his eyes widened, and the majestic momentum spread out from Hughes, sweeping across the sea.

Under the oppression of this power, the air became heavy and stagnant, and the animals in the jungle that hadn't had time to escape turned their eyes white in an instant and passed out.

As if responding to Hughes' momentum, Chidao also exuded amazing coercion.

click~
The space began to twist and deform, the color of the sky and the earth changed, the air was trembling, and there was a terrifying cracking sound.

The two different auras kept colliding, blending, and finally completely intertwined and merged into one.

Swish! ! !
The woods on Haiya disappeared in an instant, the space was dyed crimson, and the strange black-red lightning exploded and flashed across this terrifying and depressing aura.

The wind was raging, the dark clouds kept churning, and the surrounding sea began to churn violently.

A huge tsunami with a height of [-] meters was stirred up on the surface of the sea, centering on the sea where Hughes was located, rushing away to the distance.

Feeling this power for a while, Hughes withdrew his momentum in satisfaction.

The sea became calm, the waves slapped on the sea, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun once again shone on the sea.

"Good knife."

Hughes approved of the knife, which matched him very well.

"I'll call you Fei."

Zheng~
Chidao seemed to hear Hughes' words, and made a crisp buzzing sound.

-

"Whoa, whoa, Lord Hughes! Do you really want to go? Suck, suck!"

Xiaoyu held onto a corner of Hughes tightly with her small hands, looked up at Hughes pitifully, big tears fell from her eye sockets, and wet Hughes' clothes.

Hughes patted Xiaoyu on the head.

"Well, I'm leaving, you can take care of yourself.

Hughes is still sure about Xiaoyu's safety in this country. He knows the king of this country, that is, his own father.

As long as he is not 100% sure that he is dead, he dare not do anything out of the ordinary to the people who were around Hughes.

"gone."

Hughes' farewell was so brief, and then Hughes jumped to the one-person boat that he had prepared a long time ago.

Putting up the anchor, lowering the sails, the boat sailed away from the coast along the current and sailed far away.

This small boat was built by Hughes a long time ago, and he has wanted to take risks for a long time.

The materials are all from the main trunk of that cherry tree.

Hughes couldn't even remember how many knives he scrapped before he could make up enough materials. Hughes once regarded cutting trees as a kind of practice.

"Lord Hughes! You must be well! Remember to eat on time! Can you remember to come back and see Xiaoyu! Have a safe journey!"

Xiaoyu stood on the shore, with tears in her eyes and two tear marks on her cheeks. She put her hands around her mouth and said goodbye loudly to Hughes in the distance.

Hughes waved his hand without looking back.

Xiaoyu knew that her Lord Hughes had wanted to go out to sea for a long time. She had seen Hughes looking at the distant sea in ecstasy many times.

"Master Hughes, you must take care."

In the distance, Hughes' figure had disappeared, and Xiaoyu clasped her fingers on her chest to pray for Hughes.

The boat gradually moved away from Sakura Island with the sea breeze, and Hughes threw away the thing in his hand. This is a record pointer, but it is specially made.

Although the currents and eddies around Sakura Island are chaotic, there is a hidden safe sea route that can avoid those turbulent currents and eddies.

And if the people of Sakura Country want to leave the island, they can only rely on the special record pointer in the hands of Hughes unless they rely on large sea ships to force their way through the current.

Moreover, although there are very few sea kings around Sakura Island, there are still some large sea kings.

They can ignore the chaotic currents here, and the vortex in the sea full of dangers, and survive here.

But for some unknown reason, with this record pointer, there will be no sea kings approaching.

And as long as you move forward in the direction of the pointer, you can avoid those dangerous currents and eddies, and leave smoothly.

What Hughes told the king to take away before was this record pointer.

Nowadays, unless the people of Sakura Country use Sakura God as a raw material to make large ships, it will be difficult for them to leave that island.

Hughes held the pointer in one hand and steered the rudder in the other, operating the boat to move forward steadily.

Standing at the bow of the ship, Hughes could clearly see the chaotic ocean currents around him, as well as the sudden ocean vortex.

"The ocean currents here are really dangerous."

Hughes once saw with his own eyes that a sea beast with a body length of nearly [-] meters approached a vortex.

Without even a trace of struggle, it was easily swallowed by the vortex, smashed into countless flesh and blood, and the sea was dyed red.

After a day of sailing, Hughes felt the sea around him become peaceful.

The evidence is that the record pointer, which was still changing directions, now only points in one direction.

"Whoo~"

Hughes was lying leisurely on the beach chair at the moment, wearing a pair of sunglasses and a beach cover with cherry blossom petals printed on it.

The glare of the sun was blocked by the parasol, and the scarlet quilt was placed beside Hughes.

Hughes looked at the peaceful Fei, who had accidentally discovered that if a pair of Fei was more than two meters away from him, Fei would 'lose his temper' and spread his pressure.

But because of the too long blade, Hughes was not very convenient to carry it on the boat.

And because of Fei's sharp blade, just because Chiren accidentally touched it, there would be an extra crack in the items on the ship.

Fortunately, the main part of this ship is made of the core part of the trunk of the main cherry tree on the island.

Otherwise, Hughes doubted himself and might not be able to get out of the sea.

Hughes once thought about finding a scabbard for Fei, but none of those scabbards lasted more than a minute. Often, the scabbard was shattered by Fei before the knife was sheathed.

Hughes originally thought it was because of the material. He also used the trunk of the cherry tree, and even the core part to make a scabbard, but he didn't last a day.

After that, Hughes gave up on giving her a scabbard.

　It's still one thing, ask for votes, ask for collection.
