Roman Slave Owner

Yes, you are?

Cage said cautiously.

I'm an official of this pier. May I ask when your ship will arrive. Don't get me wrong, a ship is about to dock, and the berths at the pier are a little tight.

The official said with a smile.

A faint light flashed in Cage's eyes, but the light quickly disappeared.

What's the rush? We'll leave in three hours at most. This is the last batch of goods. A Capua veteran asked us to bring a batch of goods temporarily, so we were delayed for a while.

Cage said impatiently.

I don't know who you are?

the official asked.

The deputy captain of the guard of the Black Pearl.

Cage said.

I'm so disrespectful... My name is Achillius, and I will take care of this pier. I will just order you wherever you need me in the future. I admire the admiral very much.

Yeah.

Cage said with a smile.

There are a lot of pirates at sea recently, you must be careful.

said Achillius.

That's right, several of our transport ships were robbed a while ago. If we find out who did it, I will definitely nail them to a cross and beat them to death.

Cage said coldly.

Achillius' face became unnatural, but he quickly said: You are right, those pirates are really abominable. Now many sea ships are going close to the coast, and then go to Messina Strait, because even if you encounter pirates, you will have more chances to escape.

That's what we thought too. Let me tell you, it would be much easier to find those pirates' lairs and kill them all.

Cage said seemingly casually.

Strait of Messina?

Achillius thought, so he quickly changed the topic, the two chatted casually, and Cage boarded the ship.

The smile on Achillius' face quickly disappeared, and he left here with a cold snort.

What he didn't know was that a person not far away had been staring at him, and immediately followed him when he saw him leave.

On the Black Pearl, Annius took off the collar, then took off his fake beard, and spat hard, this thing is really disgusting.

At this time, Geta came in and said with a smile: How do you feel now, are you okay?

Not bad, just a little stuffy.

Annius said.

Quintuplets are generally equipped with 300 oarsmen, in addition to 200-300 soldiers, but this ship is equipped with more than 500 soldiers.

Ordinary rowers do not participate in battles, but Li Wei deliberately changed rowers, and they will also participate in battles when necessary.

Annius, you are too sissy, you can't stand this bit of suffering.

At this moment, a man with a scarred face said that he was Sainas.

After failing to compete with Annius for the senior centurion,

He was very unconvinced, so he confronted Annius.

Annius gritted his teeth and looked at the brat, he just complained casually, and this guy went online, it was extremely hateful.

Look at me, even in difficult circumstances, I'm always so optimistic.

Senas continued.

Okay, Thanes, don't hide any more. Let's talk about business, everyone put on your armor quickly, we don't know when the pirates will come, but we have to get ready as soon as possible.

Gaita said.

no problem.

Senas opened the box, revealing the armor inside, and then put it on.

Annius gave him a look of contempt, this guy is getting better at acting.

It was said that he also hoped that the Patriarch would allow him to become a judge, so he could say anything shameless about it.

I don't even look at what kind of material he is, but I really don't know how to be a judge.

Where is it like him, the praise of the Patriarch is always sincere.

Sir, do you think the pirates will come?

Anius asked.

It will definitely come. I don't believe they won't bite the bait when such a large amount of goods is released. But they will come in a while, so don't pee your pants.

Geta said with a smile.

how could be?

We are the elite who have fought countless battles.

As long as they dare to come, we guarantee that they will never return.

...

Putting on armor and steel swords, said the guards, they became mighty Roman soldiers.

The Black Pearl was heading south along the coast, and various ships passed by from time to time, including fishing boats and transport ships, Gaita guessed that there must be pirates' eyeliners among them.

But a day passed, and they still found no trace of the pirates.

What's the matter? Why haven't they come to attack?

Geta asked.

It may be that the way their message is delivered is too slow. I think they are likely to intercept in one place, and that is the Strait of Messina.

At this time, the captain of the Black Pearl said that he was a very experienced captain who spent most of his life wandering at sea, and was hired by Li Wei with a lot of money to serve as the captain of this transport ship.

Why?

Geta asked.

It is very difficult to find a ship on the vast sea, but the Strait of Messina is different. It is a strait between mainland Italy and Sicily. The passage is narrow and calm. When we went to Egypt, They will all go through the Strait of Messina. As long as he blocks the exit of the strait, he will definitely be able to block our ships.

said the captain.

So that's the case. Since this is the case, everyone should rest well. We will put the whole army on alert when we reach the Strait of Messina.

Gaita said.

Hearing his order, the guards found a place to lie down and rest.

Just behind them, within a two-hour voyage, a quinquereme and several triremes hung far away.

These ships were full of Dragon City's guards. In order to avoid the monitoring of the pirates, Li Wei deliberately dragged them to Kuma before boarding the ship.

He is also very strange about the delay in seeing the pirate attack.

Fortunately, a small boat passed the news, knowing that the ship in front was safe and sound, so the fleet was still ordered to continue sailing south as planned.

A round of rising sun jumped out of the sea, dyeing the whole sea with a layer of gold, and flocks of seagulls screamed and flew from Sicily to the ocean.

After a day of sailing, they finally came to the Strait of Messina.

Looking at the cascading mountains in the distance, Geta can only sigh that this is really a beautiful sight.

He glanced at the 3-story paddle boat behind him and sneered.

This ship has followed them since yesterday afternoon and has been following them until now.

Although there is a possibility of going the same way, he does not believe in such a coincidence.

At this moment, a lookout on the tower suddenly shouted: Sir, four large ships are coming towards us from the front, the largest of which has purple sails.

Purple Sail Pirates!

They really came!
