Tonk came to the third step. This time he was going to completely sink Nahum's armed ship!

The valuable goods were all on the transport ship. Although the profit of grabbing a medium-sized armed ship was very attractive, the premise was that there was an appetite to eat this big cake.

Tonk took this group of pirates and took the Lucky by hand-to-hand combat, but he also lost nearly half of the number of people. He relied on the Pirate King system to replenish some sailors, but he did not recruit too many people to avoid wasting points. He needed points to upgrade himself and he also needed to recruit bomb-spitting frogs.

It was dangerous to capture a large armed ship with fierce firepower by hand-to-hand combat. Its success rate was much lower than that of the direct bombing. Moreover, Tonk didn't like Nahum. He did not intend to keep him alive. He would feel very comfortable watching Nahum drown in the sea.

So, he ordered the Ares to be sunk.

Tonk was on the Black Pearl, while One-eyed was driving the Lucky. The two ships were gradually approaching the bow and stern of the Ares respectively. The Ares would have no room for a hit back at all as long as the two ships fire together at that time.

On the Ares, the tactician stood there with a blank expression and empty eyes. He simulated various strategies in his mind, but every move was powerless. A crippled ship was like a sick tiger that even a wolf could not deal with.

"Boss, please make peace." The tactician closed his eyes and sighed.

"What did you say!?" Nahum blushed and said, "Did I pay so much money to hire you to eat shit on the ship? Say such a thing! Find a way!"

The tactician said sullenly, "I'm sorry, boss. We are doomed to fail. They fought so beautifully in this battle. It was a classic naval battle where the weak defeated the strong. What a group of pirates."

Nahum was so angry that his beard trembled. He pointed at the tactician's nose and shouted, "Fuck, anyone, shoots him!"

But there was no one around to obey. They were all organizing resistance at the bow and stern of the ship. They didn't have time to pay attention. The enemy's ship was approaching.

The purpose of Evil Dragon Pirates wanted the two ships to flank the Ares, so as to avoid the shelling on the side of the Ares, and to ensure that their strike to Ares.

The Ares was like a trapped beast, turning around, trying to avoid being pinched.

Seeing the pirate ship getting closer and closer, Nahum finally collapsed. He leaned on the guardrail and shouted, "I'm asking for negotiations! I can give you a lot of money as long as you let me go!"

Someone raised the white flag self-initiated, but no one objected. The little white flag fluttered in the wind, spotless.

Nahum's voice was small. The other sailors shouted for him that expressing the idea of ​​buying his life with money.

Tonk took the helm and still drove the boat forward calmly without even moving his brows. The key was One-eyed, he was eager to kill Nahum himself.

"Captain pirate! Listen! If you let me go, I promise to give you ten thousand gold coins. No, twelve thousand gold coins!" Nahum was hoarse, and the other sailors helped blindly bidding. Some even shouted the astronomical figure of 100,000 gold coins. Didn't know if Nahum could afford it.

A sailor on the Black Pearl tentatively said to Tonk, "Captain, they promised to pay 100,000 gold coins! Why don't we think about it?!"

Tonk's expression fell, he lowered his head and said, "Why are only you talking too much?"

Tonk was now covered in the blood of the enemy. When he became fierce, his eyes were like torches. The sailor shuddered with fright, laughed embarrassed a few times, and didn't dare to talk anymore.

Although the Ares tried to turn around to clear the siege, the two pirate ships managed to get within shooting range.

"Fire!" Tonk roared to the sky.

The sailors aimed the muzzle at the Ares and lit the lead with torches. The first cannon fired a shell, hitting the sea to the left of the Ares' bow, causing a water column. The hull continued to move forward, and the sailor seized the opportunity to ignite the lead of the second cannon. Another shot was fired but missed again.

The ability of these sailors to fire cannons was not good. The distance was a little farther and the hull was moving forward, so the accuracy was greatly lowered.

Seeing that the two shoots missed, Tonk scolded a few words. He hoped that the artillery sailors would appear in the system as soon as possible. Now he lacked all kinds of competent crew members around him. Such as tacticians, captains, gunners, surveyors... But the points obtained in this battle were simply not enough to plug his teeth. He needed to take time to develop.

Knowing that the negotiation was hopeless, the Ares had no choice but to fight to the death. They used the bow gun to counterattack and moved the movable cannons to the bow and stern.

After the two pirate ships passed by with the Ares sandwiched between them, the round of shelling ended. The bow and stern of the Ares suffered merciless blows and were severely damaged, and they began to leak and sink.

The Ares was shrouded in a lifeless haze. There were corpses lying on the fore and aft decks, and the cannons were swaying. After the bow leaked, it began to sink, and one of the cannons slid down and fell into the sea.

The wounded sailors were wailing mournfully and timid sailors were hugging their heads. Some sailors were shooting uselessly. The tactician took off his hat and sat on the deck, leaning against the mast, resigned to his fate.

"L-Let the lifeboat go, I can escape!" Nahum shouted in a panic.

"It's useless, how can a small boat be faster than a big ship?" The tactician shook his head and said. His heart was dead.

But Nahum didn't give up. He even kicked and beat the sailors to prepare the lifeboats. Those sailors were also dazed. They really ran to put down the lifeboats and jumped on them. There were so many sailors that the boat sunk. These sailors fell into the sea and shouted for help, but no one on the boat paid any attention to them.

Nahum was unable to board the boat, crying in despair. He could feel the approach of death. At this time, many patients appeared in front of his eyes, and these patients were also crying for help and struggling. But when these patients needed Nahum to save them, Nahum chose to push these patients into the abyss of despair and raise the price of medicines step by step.

The two pirate ships were killed back at the same time. On the way, they reloaded and compacted their cannons. The two ships repeated the scene just now. When they passed the Ares, they carried out brutal artillery bombardment. , The shells hit the hull one after another and sawdust flew.

The pirate ship showed no mercy at all. At the same time as the shelling, bullets, bows, and arrows were released together, reaping the lives of sailors.

Tonk used his consciousness to release the investigation technique. The object of investigation was Ares and the data popped up.

Ship Name:

Ares
Model: Large three-masted armed ship
Durability: 28/80 (on the verge of sinking)

Tonk was even more confident. With just the last round of shelling, the Ares would be completely sunk.

For Ares, the two pirate ships were like death gods with scythes. Seeing the scythe of death leave, the more than one hundred sailors on the ship were not happy at all. They knew that it was their time of death when it came back.

Nahum still didn't give up and organized the sailors to put another lifeboat into the water. This time he let the orc push the sailor away who wanted to get on the lifeboat. He got on the lifeboat as he wished, and of course, the orc followed. When they got up, they used a small sail the size of a bed sheet as power and fled the battlefield in a hurry. He escaped, not even bringing out his favorite gold and silver treasures.

The lookout reported this to Tonk, and Tonk didn't care. Where could a small boat escape? Now that the overall situation had been settled. The pirates were all rejoicing as if they were full of golden coins in front of them and everyone has been allocated a sum.

The pirates were in high spirits, and someone sang a song:

My heart is agitated, like a huge wave.

Coward! Tremble under my knife!

With your despair, add another stroke to my guilt book before you die.

Gold coins and treasures will decorate my victory, and the beauties of Reddish Harbor will greet my return with a kiss...

The pirate was singing happily but was interrupted by his companion, who told him to shut up quickly. The pirate didn't know why, so he followed everyone's eyes to the sea and was surprised to see a large ship approaching fast there!

When Tonk heard the report, he was also agitated and his heart was suspended again. He left the rudder behind, took someone else's telescope over, and took a closer look at the big ship.

That ship turned out to be a Tier 3 battleship of the Royal Navy of the Greenland Empire!

The specifications of this kind of ship were much better than private ships, and it is extremely terrifying in combat effectiveness. Tier 3 battleships had three layers of artillery decks with a displacement of more than 2,000 tons. They were fully loaded with more than 100 large cannons. One round of shelling could knock out half a ton of shells!

The waves that the Tier 3 battleships make while driving can give the Black Pearl a sea bath.

What made the pirates even more horrified was that the Tier 3 battleship had already issued an offensive semaphore and fired a warning gun.

"Oops! It's a battleship of the Imperial Navy!"

"It's done, we're over. A ship of that level is simply not something we can handle."

"Quickly turn around and run away. We still have time!"

The pirates were greatly frightened, especially those pirates who were not recruited systematically. Contrary to the attitude of the pirates, the sailors of the Ares burst into tears of joy. They swept away the gloom and saw the hope of victory.

"Stop the ship, stop the ship!" Nahum patted the orc's sturdy back and stared at the gradually enlarged battleship. He danced with joy and was almost crazy.

Man proposes, God disposes.

Tonk got a disapproving look.
