I really don't want to be the pirate king

The ship city is very large, with sea ships connected one after another, extending towards the center, and being obscured by the huge warship.

The towering mast is like a tree. Looking from a distance, it looks like a dead forest. Only the trunks, the horizontal mast extending from the mast, and the signs and washed clothes are still hanging.

Robin got off the boat and came to the pier. He held Caitlin's hand. Lanrisa followed behind, walked up the steps, and came to a sea ship. She looked at the men behind her and said, "Let's go for a walk in the city." Go shopping, you go buy food.”

This time, Group A, Group B and Group C were on duty when they entered Ship City. However, they were not divided into groups. Instead, men and women were separated and walked together.

"clear."

Lafitte teamed up with Neil Bryan and Rudy and headed in the other direction.

"Let's go."

Robin walked towards the rope bridge. The first person walked towards the distance. The wooden planks under her feet were a little slippery and the rope bridge was still a bit undulating. She had no problem, but she felt that Lan Risa might be a little reluctant and reminded, "Be careful. "

But when Lan Risa stepped onto the rope bridge, she walked steadily across it.

During this year, Lan Risa was not idle. She occasionally exercised and was much more diligent than the warehouse manager Rudy.

The three of them crossed the rope bridge and arrived at the next ship. Robin stood on the rope bridge and raised his head to look upward. The mast flag was flying with a purple snake engraved on it.

"That's the symbol of our Sea Serpent Gang."

Vance, a member of the Sea Serpent Gang who followed them, introduced them in a timely manner, "Anywhere with signs is our territory."

Robin nodded and looked at the warship connected to the bow. There was no rope bridge there, but there were several families living there and children playing on it.

“That’s the life boat.”

Vance continued, "Several families live on a ship, often members of the Sea Serpent Gang."

"How many people are there in your Sea Serpent Gang? How many people live in your territory?" Robin asked curiously.

"About 800 people."

Vance replied, "The population under our management is about 3000."

"so……"

Robin stepped forward and continued along the rope bridge, passing a ship. Lanressa had a bunch of candied haws in her hand, Caitlin was eating crispy burritos, and Robin remained vigilant.

"Three beauties."

The arrogant tattooed young man leaned against the mast and said with a smile, "Are you interested in having a drink with us?"

"Hey, Fitz."

Vance, who was following them, immediately said: "These are distinguished guests. Even Boss Rodolphe must treat them with courtesy. Please be honest."

"is it?"

The young man named Fitz raised his hand and slapped his cheek, and said, "I'm sorry, it's my bad mouth."

Robin ignored him, walked straight through the warship, and continued walking toward the inside.

Finally, they arrived at the innermost ship of the Sea Serpent Gang. They stood next to the ship's side and looked inward. There was the huge warship 50 meters away, parked there like a sleeping giant.

"What is the origin of this warship?" Robin asked.

"This ship is called the Epic, and it has been parked here for a hundred years."

Vance replied, "We don't know the origin either."

"Then who live here?"

Robin looked up and saw a figure looking down. He noticed their gaze and whistled.

"The Governor and his people are there."

Vance looked fearful and said, "That's the master of Ship City."

"You have more than 600 people in the Sea Snake Gang, and there are other gangs, and they can actually control you."

Robin walked along the side of the ship city and asked curiously, "What is the origin of this governor?"

"The Governor's name is Cuthbert."

Vance said: "He was born and grew up in Ship City. He joined a gang when he was a boy. He started as a thug and gradually became the boss. Then he led the gang to attack the previous governor and became the new owner of the Epic. .”

“The experience was quite inspiring.”

Robin said with a smile and continued to walk forward. Suddenly he caught something from the corner of his eye. He turned around and saw a figure crashing into the water.

The person who fell into the water was a naked girl, about eleven or twelve years old, with a thin and undeveloped body, black and blue skin, swollen body, tattered lower body, and green spots on her body.

"This is……"

Caitlin's expression darkened when she saw the people in the water.

Lanrisa looked frightened, recalling the past, her body turned pale and she couldn't stop trembling.

Seeing this, Robin put his arm around her shoulders and grabbed her hand.

"This is the woman who was played to death by the Governor."

Vance said with an ugly expression: "Situations like this often happen, there are always one or two a month."

"Where do women come from?" Robin asked with a frown.

"The four major gangs in Ship City provide a woman to the governor every month, saying it is tax."

Vance clenched his fists and said angrily: "My sister was taken away by them like this."

"Provide one woman every month, twelve a year?"

Robin looked at them and said: "There are only more than 3000 of you. The number of people born in a year is 30%, which is [-] people."

"We have about 40 births every year."

Vance lowered his head and said: "There are less than 20 girls, so..."

"Then you won't resist?"

Robin said with an unhappy expression, "There are so many gangs, thousands of gang members, if they all attack together."

"Resist?"

Vance snorted, pointed up and said, "See those cannons? Point at the gang's station at any time, and a salvo will turn the station into a sea of ​​flames, and more people will die by then."

"Not only that……"

Vance added: "The Governor is very powerful. Even his men can break the bones of Boss Rodolfo."

"That's it."

Robin nodded and continued to move along the coast. He discovered that there were cages hanging next to the side of the Epic. There were figures imprisoned in the cages. They were huddled inside, in great pain.

There are even dead bones in some cages, while others are immersed in water.

"Those are the people who rebelled against the Governor."

Vance said: "Actually, it's not resistance, but the governor felt that you might threaten his rule, so..."

"This governor really deserves death." Caitlin's cold voice sounded, with a hint of murderous intent.

They walked forward and came to the end of the Sea Serpent Gang's station, which was a wide waterway.

The waterway runs through the ship city and extends into the river. Huge steel cables dropped from the side of the Epic ship and connected into the water. There were people standing on it, observing the water.

wow.

The water surface suddenly split, and a figure appeared on the water and climbed up the steel rope.

This figure is about two and a half meters tall, with a greenish-red body and a forehead that protrudes nearly two feet forward, like a sharp sword.

There are fins on his back and elbow joints on both arms, and gills on his shoulders.

This is a fishman.

After he stepped onto the steel rope, the sea water continued to open, and figures emerged one after another. They were wearing wooden barrels and masks, and they struggled to climb up the steel rope under the pull of the people on the steel rope.

"Who are these people?"

Robin asked curiously: "Why are you all coming out of the water? Are you wearing diving suits?"

"This was originally an island with a wealthy kingdom called Hyde."

Vance introduced, "But due to the movement of the earth's crust, the island sank into the sea, and the entire kingdom was submerged in the sea. But the island is just below, and these steel cables connect the mountains of the island."

Robin followed Vance's gaze and spotted the huge black shadow at the end of the cable.

"There are ruins of the kingdom below the island. After countless generations of salvage, there is nothing valuable left."

Vance said: "But it is rumored that the treasure of Hyde Kingdom has not yet been opened and is on the island, so the governor will send people to salvage it every day."

"So it is."

Robin looked at those people advancing on the steel rope, and his eyes fell on the fishman at the front, only to find that one of his feet was shackled, and there was still some rot on his calf.

Robin raised his eyebrows, withdrew his gaze, and took Caitlin and Lan Risa back.

They bought some daily necessities and some clothes, and returned to the ship. Lafitte and Neil also came back.

"Brother, let me tell you..."

At dinner, Robin told what he had seen, causing everyone to be angry.

"These people are disgusting, I'm going to kill them," Bowness said, waving his arms.

"They really deserve to die."

Lafitte had experienced something similar, and he was extremely angry, but he suppressed his anger, but his meat-cutting hands were shaking.

"The Navy doesn't care about things like this." Neil said angrily after taking a sip of wine.

"So what? Anyone who takes over the Epic will do this."

Brian interjected not far away, "If you gain control of the warship, you will gain powerful firepower, and if you gain the power to control the destiny of others, your ambition will expand and you will become another governor. Nothing can be changed." of."

His words silenced everyone. Robin lowered his head and said, "This is not our business. Let's eat."

Everyone focused on the food, but the atmosphere was a bit depressing.

Aaron, who had seen all this, took a sip of wine, put a piece of meat into his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
