186. The end of the West Sea trip

The dark evening sea where not even the moonlight can be seen.

There were countless pirate ships floating on the open sea. It was as if all the pirate ships had gathered in the East Sea.

As if something good had happened, the sound of laughter never stopped on each boat.

“Cheers!”

“Where is a ghost ship or something!”

Sailors clinked glasses and screamed. Their voices echoed in the calm sea.

However, when I looked closely at them, something was strange.

“Big! The drink tastes good!”

“This is the life of a sea man!”

Contrary to the fact that it was delicious, the glass had water in it, and it was clear that they were having fun, but they were armed.

This was all a ploy to lure the ghost ship.

However, if you think about it, this situation was really strange. Pirate ships gather in the middle of the sea and have a party?

It is a strategy that can never be used against humans, but the story is different when the opponent is a ghost ship.

According to Oren, these were ghosts full of ghosts. Whatever the situation, it has to come.

Their thoughts were correct.

“earth-! earth-! earth-!”

The watchmen seemed to have discovered something, and each ship started sounding a warning from the top of the mast.

“Ready.”

“Get ready.”

Everyone moved slowly and prepared for battle. Once this job was over, the pirate life being chased by the empire was over.

“It’s a ghost fleet!”

“Everybody move fast!”

As soon as the sight of the ghost fleet came into sight, they stopped even acting clumsily.

“Move right away! You mojiri!”

“To each position!”

If Leon had seen it, he would have said that this was a combat unit, but for the pirates, this was the best.

“Open the sails!”

“hey! move quickly! Think you will die if you fall!”

Each ship was connected with a thick line to maintain formation. If you fall behind, the entire formation is distorted.

The pirate ships formed formation and began to move slowly.

“Don’t panic and move according to plan! Your life as a criminal ends today!”

“Yes-!”

A huge encirclement moved slowly as if overtaking the ghost fleet.

* * *

On the other hand, Black, who commands the fleet to subdue the pirate ship, feels dumbfounded.

‘Did you come up with that as a strategy?’

He didn’t know better than the pirates about fleet tactics, but even to Black, an outsider, that looked too clumsy.

Of course, it wasn’t because the pirates were incompetent.

It was a ‘ghost ship’, so it showed that kind of appearance, but it came to Black completely differently.

‘I heard that Oh-Ren moved. You forced me to act so stupidly. He is also Lord Oren.’

If Leon had been here, he would have said something like this.

I?

that one?

I don’t know, that.

Black’s face was full of respect.

‘great. Shall we proceed according to plan then?’

Black immediately conveyed his will by pouring the energy of death into the hand holding the railing.

– Forward!

The speed of the ghost fleet has increased.

In an instant, the fleet entered the center of the formation.

It was completely surrounded by dozens of ships. Huge ropes were attached to each ship, and there was nowhere to get out.

‘Didn’t you tell me to wait here for a while?’

Black stopped the fleet and waited for a moment.

Of course, it was strange to just wait quietly.

– Kiyiyiik!

along with deaf ears.

“together… … let’s go… … .”

“The dead… … Be… … .”

The horrible voices of the skeletons came out. As the pirates began to agitate, the captains began to move.

“Activate the barrier!”

“Activate the barrier!”

The dark sea began to glow with divine power. The ghost fleet fighting for the world shed the aura of death, and the pirates fighting for greed and desire flowed with divine power.

Leon was watching them from high in the sky.

‘It’s spectacular.’

Unlike the thrilling bottom, Leone was leisurely watching on the marbles with snacks in her hand.

‘It looks like an angel’s ring?’

The pirates’ careers were not to be ignored. They drew a perfect circle and activated the barrier.

Riding on the tied robe and even blocking the gap, there was nowhere to escape.

‘Hey Siri. Please do it nicely.’

[Uses divine power with directing effects attached.]

The enormous divine power gathered from the beads spewed out over the sea.

As if God’s punishment had fallen, divine power filled the angel’s ring.

Soon, the sea also began to glow with divine power. It has become impossible for the Ghost Fleet to dive.

When Leon’s divine power was granted, the pirates gained courage.

“Everyone keeps their formation and slowly squeezes in!”

“Move!”

The formation formed by divine power gradually narrowed. The ghost fleet began to cling to the main ship as if avoiding divine power.

“It works!”

“I am afraid of divine power!”

“As long as you keep the formation like this, it will be over!”

The pirates were not vigilant until the end. Keeping a tight gap, maintaining the formation, entered the siege.

As they approached close enough to burst out of the barrier, the crew of the ghost fleet began to hide as if avoiding divine power.

“Be vigilant until the end!”

“Finish it!”

“It’s over!”

The moment the ship got close enough to stick to it, and the ghost fleet approached right in front of them.

Black took out the artifact of artificial death from his bosom.

And, the will was conveyed.

– Ghostization.

At the same time that the massive death escaped from the ghost, the hull of the ghost fleet began to turn translucent. It didn’t really dematerialize like a ghost, but the pirates couldn’t know that.

The change made the pirates strong.

“It’s okay if the hull breaks! Bumping!”

“Advance! Grind the ghosts with divine power!”

“Gazuaa!”

The pirates’ ships advanced as if they were ramming the ghost fleet while maintaining the barrier. The gap became too narrow, and the pirate ships became tangled and unable to move. Retreat was now impossible.

It seems reckless, but it was a way to completely annihilate the ghost fleet.

‘of course. That’s when the divine power is in effect though.’

Leon was happily watching over the sea that had become a mess.

The reason for boldly handing over the divine power barrier was simple. Divine power on the ghost ship was of no use.

‘How surprised I was at first.’

The formula that divine power is rat poison for the soul has collapsed.

But when you think about it, it wasn’t incomprehensible. They are not beings resurrected against the providence with dark magic. It is an existence summoned with the energy of pure death.

‘Just as divine power is clean and pure energy, so was death.’

Besides, since it was an energy that Black had even purified once, there was no way that it would be destroyed by divine power.

An immortal army that cannot even use divine power.

I couldn’t even imagine what kind of opportunity it would take to get that.

“what!? Why don’t they disappear!”

“What happened!”

“hey! Aren’t you clearing your stomach?! You want to die together!?”

To no avail, the pirates panicked.

It was also a mistake to use a thick rope to keep it from breaking. It took a year to cut it off.

It was the optimal timing for the ghost fleet to move. Leon’s eyes saw Black pulling something out of his bosom.

‘Well, that’s it.’

An artificial god that contains firearms.

Black used it.

Originally, it wouldn’t mix with the ghost fleet no matter how hard I tried it, but it’s different now after using ‘ghosting’.

A gunshot of fire mingled with death, and a change occurred in the ghost fleet. ‘Fire’ was added to the ghost fleet that was shedding the energy of death.

‘A campfire on the sea.’

It was natural for the pirate ship that was entangled with the ghost fleet to catch fire.

A huge fire began to rise over the sea. The fire was for the world to erase pirates from the East Sea.

‘I think I can leave the rest to Black.’

Black was already on the move.

Rescued someone, confirmed and killed someone.

His expression hardened, but he didn’t hesitate and didn’t regret it.

This blood will grow black.

Rion left the clean-up entirely to Black.

Oren was wearing a mask and talking to the darkness.

“Most of the pirates have been dealt with.”

<I knew you would succeed.>

“With this incident, I was able to receive some of the treasures looted by the ghost ship.”

<Oh! Really!? >

“I see what you were looking for.”

Leone tricked the darkness as if he got it now.

<It must have felt right since you were the manager.>

“Looks like you found one.”

Darkness burst into laughter as Oren spoke.

<What are you looking for? I also found the other one.>

At those words, Leon was taken aback.

‘You found it? So, is this the last one?’

If you deliver this, the three keys that open the gates of hell will be gathered together.

“Sorry.”

<Haha. Did you think we couldn’t find it?>

“Yes.”

It was sincere. I thought I’d ask for it, but I didn’t expect to find it.

<There was a huge loss on our side. There are people upstairs who are uncomfortable with Mr. Oren.>

“You mean you moved too hard because of me?”

<Yes. He said that this is what we need to find out. She’s a crazy woman anyway.>

It contained a lot of information. The person who was uncomfortable with Oren was a ‘woman’, and it contained information that he had abilities such as prediction and premonition.

‘It’s annoying.’

It’s perfect when Oren finds the 3 keys, but thanks to the crazy woman, the anxiety factor is included.

Well, what had already happened was unavoidable.

“I will deliver the key pieces as quickly as possible.”

<Yes. I want to go, but no matter how dark I am, avoiding the ghost’s eyes is difficult.>

“i get it.”

Ghosts are the ones most familiar with darkness. No matter how “dark” it was, it was impossible to avoid all of those eyes.

This worked well for Oren.

“I will contact you when I get to Killika.”

<I will be waiting for you with a happy heart. Hell. I’m already excited.>

The conversation with the darkness ended like that.

‘I think this dark guy will be appeased too.’

I wasn’t saying this because darkness really likes hell. He wasn’t crazy.

He was only happy because he had a grudge against the empire.

‘If only I knew what kind of grudge it was… … .’

Oren was deep in thought. I had to go meet Black.

* * *

“Oh Ren! Mr. Ouren!”

A huge ghost ship came in from the entrance of the cave, calling Oren. Oren answered that voice.

“noisy. Come quickly and report.”

“Yep!”

Black jumped from the ship like a bird. There was not even a sound of footsteps when he landed.

I couldn’t even tell how much I had grown.

“Bring it!”

Let Black shout at the ship.

Skeleton sailors dragged out large pockets. If he killed a pirate like that and brought something in his pocket, there was only one.

“Could it be that you brought the enemy supply and demand?”

“Hey. Where do you write such horrible things?”

It was half a joke, of course.

If you really brought it, it was said that it was swallowed in blood, but that was the worst.

“I have taken care of it. It is a treasure that each pirate group has packed.”

“… … Good job.”

It was unexpectedly too fast.

“Wherever they were going, the treasures were well packed. Thanks to you, it was over quickly.”

Also taught well.

Rather than being swallowed up in blood, he chose to look at it calmly, and he did not become arrogant even though he gained strength.

“You have grown.”

“… … thank you.”

The compliment between the two of them was enough. Oren went straight to the point.

I took out a piece of key from my chest and showed it to him.

“I’ll give you a prize.”

“uh? Didn’t I have this?”

After all, it was invisible to the boy’s eyes. So it was put there.

When Oren poured the energy of death into the key fragment, a change occurred. I started to feel the tremendous energy of death from the key fragment.

“Take care.”

“thank you!”

If Black had a tail, it was certain that it would wag violently.

‘I can’t just give you the key.’

I was thinking of removing the energy of death and passing it on.

‘Two of the three pieces are empty, but there’s no way they’ll work properly.’
