Pirate Shadow Guardian

Moon Hidden Island.

"Move all the supplies down, and I'll assign you some work later. As long as you behave yourself and don't commit suicide, I'll spare your lives."

"Yes, my lord!"

The pirates were obediently carrying the supplies that originally belonged to the pirate group.

Yang also collected the valuables separately. There was no place to spend money on Yueyin Island, so there was no point asking for money.

"Brother Yangye, what are these?"

"Oh, they are a pirate group I met on the road. They captured some prisoners and will stay in the village to work."

"That's...okay!"

Oli hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

The village's development and construction does require manpower, so she is naturally happy to have free labor.

The reason for her hesitation was whether these pirates were honest or not...

"Don't worry, Sister Ollie, these pirates are not very strong, and the village can keep them under control. Besides... I will stay in the village for a long time this time."

"I can rest assured that."

Oli breathed a sigh of relief. With Yang Ye's words, she no longer worried about anything.

In fact, Yang also wanted to say that the pirate who was just frightened by Jasmine could be honest for a long time...

But after thinking about it, he changed his mind.

He didn't want Ollie to be scared...

That’s right, Jasmine’s way of scaring people is through dissection.

Yang just picked out a few pirates who were more cunning and had Jasmine dissect them.

Um…vivisection.

Yang can also sense emotional fluctuations, so it's very easy to find a few troublemakers.

Anyway, Yang wasn't going to keep these people. And Jasmine happened to like dissecting living people. It would be a good opportunity to scare these pirates. It would kill three birds with one stone. Why not do it?

"You came back pretty quickly, and you made quite a noise."

"Well, Grandpa Garp is very efficient, and those pirates did go to the Gothic Kingdom."

Yang didn't explain these pirates to Zoro. Zoro would understand even without him saying anything. He just told Zoro that his previous conjecture had been confirmed.

"How much longer?"

"It should be soon, about half a month to a month."

“That’s really exciting!”

"I'm not looking forward to it at all... I just want to live a peaceful life for a few days..."

Yang is not like Zoro, a battle maniac who always wants to chop something. He has been really hard-working and exhausted recently...

"Then don't do anything, leave it to me."

"Not only me, you should also try not to take action."

"Hmm? You want to...train?"

Zoro looked at Yangye in surprise.

Although the devilish training over the past month has helped these kids improve a lot, they are still just a bunch of kids after all...

"With us here, nothing will go wrong. It's time to let them see some blood. If they understand how weak they are, they will have more motivation to move forward. Isn't that right?"

"Tsk, being a babysitter again..."

Zoro said with disdain but his expression was serious.

After more than a month of getting along, his relationship with the children has deepened a lot.

"Don't worry, they know this is my territory, and they will definitely send out experts, and you will have a lot to fight against. Just leave some small fish for the little guys to practice on."

"Well, then I'm relieved."

I don’t know whether Zoro is confident that he will have the chance to fight, or that the little guys only need to deal with the small fry.

.........

For the next twenty days, Yang was able to live a rare comfortable life.

Every day he just teaches boxing and then trains himself. He doesn't worry about anything else.

Oli is in charge of the construction of the village, including farmland reclamation, house construction, technological upgrading of the textile department... and so on, Yang Ye doesn't have to worry about any of that.

The work of the original village hunting team has now been completely replaced by the new generation of little guys. If it weren't for sustainable development, all the wild animals on the island would have been killed.

On the parents' side, Jasmine has replaced Yangye and become the apple of Heye and Aisha's eye. The well-behaved, sensible and sweet-talking Jasmine is much cuter than Yangye and more like a child!

Of course Yang Ye would not tell her parents that Jasmine’s special hobby was vivisection…

Not only did Yang Ye not say anything, but even the pirate captives were ordered to keep their mouths shut. Anyone who dared to tell anyone would be dissected!

However, these pirate captives lived a good life.

Oli did not abuse them, but only made them do some rough and tiring work. Although they did not receive any wages, they were provided with three meals a day, and if they performed well, they were also given a small amount of alcoholic beverages as rewards. This was beyond their expectations, as the treatment was similar to that of the villagers in the Hidden Moon Village.

At this time, Yang Ye's foresight was reflected.

After picking out all the troublemakers, the rest are basically honest and well-behaved, and it is relatively easy to recruit them.

Yang didn't care about this.

If these people are honest and do not cause him trouble, and the village can be kept under control, then he can accept them joining the Hidden Moon Village.

If the evil intentions are not dead, and you still keep thinking "I would rather die than be without freedom"...

Then Yang would definitely help them.

Of course, the way to fulfill them is definitely not to let them go free.

.........

Twenty days of peace have passed, and Yang has to start getting busy again.

because…

The troops of the Gothic Kingdom have arrived near Yueyin Island!

Putting down the telescope in his hand, Yang nodded to the child in charge of the investigation to show his approval.

The child did not show any excitement. Staying calm is the first element of a scout!

"Captain, what should we do next?"

Captain is what these kids call Yoya, the chief of the security forces of the Hidden Moon Village. Zoro is the instructor.

But boss, chief, big sister... these titles will only appear on one person!

"Keep watching. Your mission is to warn the enemy when they try to approach Yueyin Island."

Yang also sent three scouts to keep an eye on the movements here 24 hours a day.

At present, the enemy's ships are still in a wait-and-see state, seemingly trying to confirm Yang Ye's strength. At the same time, they are also looking for the best breakthrough route.

Yes, there are enemies in more than one place.

Enemy ships appeared in the three seaside locations of the Hidden Moon Village.

On the contrary, no enemy ships appeared in the direction blocked by the huge cliff.

But even in that direction, Yang arranged a scout to keep an eye on the movements in the mountains and forests.

Anyone who can come over from the cliff must be an expert. But if they don't know the situation here, it will definitely cause the birds and beasts to move.

Even though the enemy might not necessarily attack from that side, Yang still didn't dare to relax.

The main point is just one word: stable!

Yang did not choose to take the initiative to attack, there was no need.

Give up the home advantage and choose to fight hard at sea?

This is not a wise choice.

Yang Ye didn’t have to wait long, just two days later…

When a gorgeous firework rose on the west coast, Yang knew that the enemy was preparing to land from the west!

However, before Yang could make any move, fireworks rose in the east and south.

Yang Ye bought fireworks to use as flares, and each scout was equipped with several.

Does it bloom on many sides?

If it were someone else, they might not be able to cope with it, but I am not one of them!

Now, the range of Yang Ye's observation Haki has reached a radius of 330 meters. Yueyin Island is just a small island, and the straight-line distance from east to west is only ten kilometers. It will take less than ten seconds to shuttle through the shadows thirty times!

Of course, this was just a simple matter of hurrying along. If he was in battle, Yang wouldn't be able to move so quickly.

Moreover, this situation had been taken into consideration long ago, and the eastern defense line was handed over to Zoro. The distance to the west and south was closer, and Yang could complete the crossing within five seconds.

Yang was also in the northern forest at this time. Being cautious, he decided to search the north first.

Overt attacks are often not fatal.

If we were to say which of these four directions is most likely to be broken through, it would definitely be the mountains in the north where it seems least likely that the enemy will appear!

Putting himself in other people's shoes, if Yang Ye attacked an island by himself, he would definitely launch an open attack to attract the enemy's attention, and then use a powerful enemy to launch a sneak attack in secret. As long as he could capture the villagers, even the strongest enemy would be restrained.

The battle hasn't started yet. If there are enemies, they should still be hiding in the dark.

So... where will it be?

Yang Ye's mind flashed through the terrain of the northern mountains and forests, focusing on the direction close to the coastline.

Shadow shuttle!

At the first location, I didn’t sense anyone.

The second location, no one.

The third location...

found it!
