"What do you mean?" Flora asked, completely confused.
Tonk looked at Flora's perplexed expression but didn't reveal anything. He muttered to himself and continued walking ahead.
As they walked, Flora continued to talk about her sister, Coral, and their childhood memories. They used to quarrel over trivial matters, but as they grew older, their bond grew stronger. Flora never expected that when their people faced a threat of death, Coral would step forward and sacrifice so much.
Losing her sister caused Flora immense pain as if a wild beast was tearing her heart apart. Tonk couldn't help but feel that the conversation was taking a strange turn and not headed toward sort of NSFW.
Suddenly, Flora stopped in her tracks and gently pulled Tonk's arm, pleading softly, "I want to go to the slave route to find my sister. Although the chance of finding her is slim, I want to try. Can you take me there on your ship?"
In fact, Tonk had long since realized that when a woman asks you for something in a very gentle manner, it's usually difficult to refuse. Tonk felt that he had already done enough for the people of Starfish Island, and taking Flora to search for one person was simply impossible.
The slave route is a long sea route that takes more than a year to travel around without any delay, let alone the likelihood of unforeseen circumstances along the way. Moreover, Flora had no idea where her sister had been sold, making it a needle in a haystack.
Tonk said with blackface, "This matter is non-negotiable. I'm not a good person, and I have my own things to do."
Flora's expression dimmed, and she apologized, "I understand. I heard that you sail southward, passing through the slave route. I want to try my luck on your ship. What if the gods bless me and let me find my sister?"
Tonk's face brightened at the thought of getting free labor. He waved his hand and said, "That's easy. You can come on board as a lookout."
"Thank you!" Flora's face lit up with a happy smile.

| Skills: | None |

Tonk was very happy, even though Flora was too delicate to be a gunner, being a lookout was not bad either. Moreover, Flora was responsible and never lazy in the lookout tower, which made her much better than those pirate lookouts.
A ship needs all kinds of talents. The crew on the Black Pearl became increasingly diverse.
"Is a simple 'thank you' all you have to say? Do you have nothing else to express?" Tonk breathed hot air and approached Flora's face, asking with an inexplicable tone.
Flora blushed and took a small step back. Because her body was leaning back, she couldn't stand steady on her feet and almost slipped.
Tonk hugged Flora's waist and held her in his arms. This exotic woman had a special attraction to him, and Flora's gentle and delicate character also made him want to bully her a little.
An innocent and timid woman is so exciting to bully!
That's Tonk's thought.
The surroundings were empty, and only the moon was peeking at the movements of the two.
Their bodies were tightly attached, and under the friction between masculinity and femininity, they quickly heated up. Flora struggled in a panic, but the arm could tighten slightly to hold her in place. All resistance was in vain.
Flora's mind was in chaos, and she just wanted to go out for a walk with Tonk, without thinking that it would turn out like this.
Tonk wanted to lower his head and kiss Flora but found that he couldn't even reach her forehead. Their height difference was too great, and Flora was like a child.
As soon as he thought of the word "child," Tonk's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "Flora, how old are you this year?"
Flora was still confused and her body was still very weak. She didn't even hear Tonk's words.
Tonk just bit Flora's ear and asked softly, "I'm talking to you, how old are you?"
Flora weakly replied, "I'm seventeen."
Tonk was stunned for a moment, and then a look of disappointment flashed across his face. He slowly released his warm embrace and supported the wobbling Flora.
Flora looked at Tonk in confusion, her heart still in a mess, beating irregularly.
"Well, let's go back," Tonk said.
Tonk gave a bitter smile and pulled Flora back with him. He had once sworn not to touch underage children. Just as he had a moral boundary when killing, this was also one of the moral boundaries that he would never violate.
Today, he was left with a sense of evil fire after suppressing his sinful desires. It seemed there was nowhere for him to vent it, and he felt a bit empty inside.
On the way back to the tribe, Flora didn't dare to say a word and walked back in a daze.
The next morning, a round red sun rose up, awakening the sleeping earth and adding vitality to Sea Star Island. The red morning light spread out, passing first over a graveyard of the deceased, then through a procession of islanders who had spontaneously formed a farewell team, and finally onto the Black Pearl that was about to set sail.
Before setting sail, the pirates chatted merrily while the constant sound of waves became their accompaniment.
Tonk commanded the pirates as they boarded the two ships in batches and carried out a series of preparations. The Lucky Star was a large transport ship with a lot of cargo, so it was slower than the Black Pearl, which was a medium-sized ship with the advantage of being light and fast.
To balance the speeds of the two ships, Tonk ordered some of the Lucky Star's cargo to be moved onto the Black Pearl, so the two ships could maintain the same speed.
Before leaving the island, Tonk had recruited a group of sailors using the system, especially more archers, to ensure that there was sufficient personnel on the ship.
The cash plundered this time was very limited, and the Lucky Star was full of medicine, which needed to be sold in exchange for money. The best place to sell it was the infamous Pirate City!
Pirate City was a breeding ground for maritime crime, a headache for the five major empires, a golden palace of pleasure for pirates, and a gathering place for the strong!
In Pirate City, even an eight or nine-year-old child could not be underestimated, as this child might be the grandson of a certain great pirate, or because of some adventure, he or she had become a skilled and notorious villain.
The world was accustomed to calling Pirate City the Axis of Evil!
It was the center of evil in the Age of Discovery, spreading its spiderweb-like nightmares to every corner of the world.
The Evil Dragon Pirates was going to that mysterious and evil place.
Tonk had heard many rumors about Pirate City from the port of Carlin and had been looking forward to it for a long time. One-eyed, the old pirate, had been to Pirate City twice and had some knowledge of the place. Before departing, he repeatedly reminded Tonk to be extremely cautious when in Pirate City, as even a slight misstep could lead to serious trouble.
In Pirate City, pirates from the five major seas of the world gathered, and one could even catch a glimpse of the Pirate Governor.
The current sea where Tonk was located was the Dream Sea, while the other four major seas were respectively the Floating Ice Sea in the north, the Black Sea in the south, the Yanhuang Sea in the east, and the more distant Endless Sea.
Each sea has a pirate king, who is called the Pirate Governor. Only by becoming a Pirate Governor can one qualify to compete for the position of Pirate King.
Of course, no empire recognizes these Pirate Governors; instead, they increase the bounties on these people to astonishing amounts and seize the opportunity to dispatch the navy to eliminate them.
The Pirate Governor of this Dream Sea was a pirate named Goldbeard, who was full of legend and was the first mate on the pirate king's ship of the previous generation. His strength was unfathomable, and his bounty was astronomical.
Tonk's current strength is at best equivalent to that of a slightly larger shrimp. A character like Goldbeard was like a huge whale to him!
When it was time to part ways, the islanders enthusiastically bid farewell to these benefactors. Especially the women, who were reluctant to say goodbye to Stephen, making him have to hide.
The pirates who lacked charm began to complain, grumbling about how unfair life was.
The chief of Starfish Island found Tonk and expressed his gratitude with sincere words. Tonk said they didn't owe each other anything, as they had the Goddess of the Wind as a reward. The chief sighed and said that Tonk had a noble character, and wished him a safe journey, etc.
After bidding farewell to the people of Starfish Island, the two pirate ships hoisted their sails and left the makeshift pier. Tonk stood on the side of the ship, watching Starfish Island gradually disappear, while the islanders on the shore waved goodbye and shouted words like "goodbye" and "may the gods protect you."
"I've been a pirate for so long, and it's the first time someone has thanked me," said a pirate while pulling in the ropes.
Tonk looked at Starfish Island, which was getting farther and farther away. In his eyes, the islanders had become small black dots in a row.
"Come out! What else are you hiding? Do you think the people on the island are all farsighted like you?" Tonk turned around and shouted towards the cabin.
Flora's head popped out. She blushed and walked up to the deck. She had once again sneaked out to sea without telling the chief, who would never have agreed to let her take the risk. She stood next to Tonk, tears in her eyes, watching Starfish Island gradually shrink. She felt reluctant to leave, even regretful, but when she thought of her suffering sister, she became resolute.
Flora bit her lip and encouraged herself to be brave, then said, "I'm on the lookout tower."
Tonk nodded and watched Flora climb up the mast. Her movements were becoming more and more agile.
To prevent any wardrobe malfunctions while going up and down the lookout tower, Flora had changed her animal skin skirt to riding pants, which gave her a mixed and unique style.
When the navigation became stable, Tonk went back to the captain's room and took out the statue of the goddess, intending to experiment with it.
"What do you mean?" Flora asked, completely confused.
Tonk looked at Flora's perplexed expression but didn't reveal anything. He muttered to himself and continued walking ahead.
As they walked, Flora continued to talk about her sister, Coral, and their childhood memories. They used to quarrel over trivial matters, but as they grew older, their bond grew stronger.
