In the passing ships, the Black Pearl rubbed shoulders with all kinds of vessels. Occasionally, someone would say hello, but most people ignored the Black Pearl.
One-eyed was well-traveled among pirate crews. He could recognize seven or eight out of ten pirates passing by and even knew some of their exploits. Those who could make it here were not ordinary people. Many pirates had committed sensational crimes, such as kidnapping a nobleman or attacking a port.
Tonk treated these stories as entertainment and listened with great interest.
"Look, it's the Sunset Riders!" One-eyed, scanning the surroundings, pointed to a ship shadow in the distance.
Tonk asked, "Who are the Sunset Riders?"
"I told you earlier, no one dares to cause trouble after entering the Thorn Sea because the Sunset Riders patrol the waters. The ship that just passed us is one of the Sunset Riders, called the Blood Shark Rider." One-eyed explained.
Flora had good eyesight and saw it clearly at a glance. She interjected, "The shape of that ship looks like a shark. There are also many red shadows swimming around it in the sea."
Tonk also used his telescope to look, but could only see a dark red ship shadow.
When the Blood Shark Rider came riding the waves, everyone finally got a good look at it. This ship was much longer than a navy tier 3 battleship, about one hundred yards long. The people on the Black Pearl could only look up as the Blood Shark Rider passed by.
The Blood Shark Rider was dark red all over, with a shark's head made of metal on the bow. There were mechanisms on its mouth as if the shark's head was not just a decoration but could really open its mouth and bite!
There were an unknown number of blood sharks swimming around the Blood Shark Rider. These large sharks could bite through the hull of a ship and were a terrifying force.
Tonk tried his old trick again and threw something small into the sea, hoping to hit the blood sharks. He was very keen on recruiting various magical creatures and coming to Pirate City was a rare opportunity for him. Here, not only were there many strong people but there were also many powerful creatures he didn't want to miss out on.
Unfortunately, luck was not on his side this time. None of the little wooden blocks he threw hit the blood sharks in the sea.
As everyone watched the Blood Shark Rider sail away, they resumed their conversation.
"It is said that the captain of the Blood Shark Rider is a beautiful woman who has the secret of taming blood sharks. She is a powerful beastmaster." One-eyed said.
Tonk couldn't help but laugh as he imagined a beautiful woman taming sharks with a whip in her hand on his head.
The Black Pearl sailed in the Thorn Sea for three whole days before finally seeing the shadow of the north gate of the city. The city gate was arched and pierced straight into the clouds, and its width was enough to allow dozens of Black Pearls to sail side by side.
Near the city gate, there were sea creatures called Viking Fishmen serving as guards, with one stationed every certain distance. They looked fierce and terrifying, with a dark purple body and a trident in their hands. They could knock a small boat out of the water with just their fishtails.
Tonk was again struck by the desire for talent and set his sights on the Viking Fishmen, using his Investigate skill.

| Species: | Viking Merfolk |
| Attribute: | Water, Darkness. |
| Skills: | Fishman Battle Cry, Dark Wave, Split Water Thrust, Advanced Combat Skills. |
| Physical Attack: | |
| Elemental Attack: |
Tonk was mentally prepared, but he was still shocked by these values. This individual combat power could easily crush the Black Pearl. He hurriedly looked at the "Recruit" interface, hoping to find the Viking Merfolk's figure, but to no avail.
The recruit could only be activated by touching a creature. This was a rule of the game system that left no room for negotiation.
Sea Thorn was a plant, so Tonk dared to risk throwing wood chips at it, but the Viking Merfolk was a living creature. Once offended, the consequences would be unimaginable. Tonk couldn't think of any way to get close to them, so he had to give up.
No pirate ship dares to approach the Viking Merfolk, a murderous demon king, and the dark elements emanating from the Viking Merfolk alone are enough to make people shudder.
The Black Pearl sailed through the North Gate and now, looking up, one can see a vibrant island with endless shores. In the center of the island stands a majestic castle that is solemn and dignified, not inferior to the imperial cities of the Five Great Empires.
The Black Pearl anchored at the dock on the north shore of Pirate City.
| Ding! You have arrived at Pirate City and obtained basic information about the city. |
| City: | Pirate City |
| Country: | None |
| Description: | This city was planned and built by the first Pirate King, Roger. Roger forced the Five Great Empires to fund the construction and assembled the world's top architects and weapon makers to supervise the construction. It is one of the strongest military fortresses in the world and has withstood three joint attacks from the Five Great Empires. This city has made the pirate industry prosper and is considered a sacred place in the hearts of all pirates. After more than two hundred years of development, Pirate City has not only become a paradise for pirates but also a trading center for various smuggling and criminal activities. Even the king's crown can be easily sold here. |

After reading this information, Tonk had the illusion that he was like a mouse running around in a tiger's den. Putting aside everything else, the military strength alone here is more than ten times that of Carin Port, no wonder even the Five Great Empires can't break through.
As for the buildings, there is still a long list behind them. Any location imaginable is here.
While the sailors were busy with the ship's docking arrangements, Tonk took the opportunity to read about several locations. Since there were still some medicines on the ship, he first checked the prices of the drugs and selected the exchange with the highest offer, so as not to be cheated by unscrupulous merchants when selling.
He then read about several special locations.
The Curse Pool is a bizarre pool of water. By tossing a coin into the pool and uttering the name of one's enemy with deep resentment, the person will experience a continuous run of bad luck. However, there are side effects to this method, and after cursing someone, the curser will also suffer bad luck.
If it weren't for this side effect, Tonk would really like to curse Harold. After all, Tonk's stomach wound hasn't healed yet.
The Pirate King's Tomb is a mysterious location, rumored to contain Roger's treasure. Whether it is true or not, no one knows, and the burial site is also shrouded in mystery. It is impossible to dig it up with a small shovel.
The most interesting place was the Skull Coin Lottery, which requires collecting scattered skull coins from around the world and then using them to participate in the lottery. The prizes range from good to bad, with the best being epic-level equipment.
Tonk was fascinated but was interrupted by One-eyed, who reminded him that he needed to disembark and handle the paperwork.
He was satisfied that the procedures in Pirate City were much simpler than in Karin Port. All he had to do was to report his pirate group's name and sign a document to enter and exit freely. However, the docking fee here was very high, costing 10 gold coins per day. Staying here for a month or two would drive anyone crazy just paying the docking fee alone.
Following One-eyed's plan, Tonk completed the procedures for the secret dock and paid 100 gold coins. In this way, the dock would keep the location where the Black Pearl would be parked secret. Tonk received a numbered badge, which he secretly tucked into his pocket. Except for port officials, he was the only one who knew where the Black Pearl would be anchored.
As for the ship's cargo, it had already been unloaded and stored in the warehouse. If the Black Pearl needed to replenish its food and water or repair and refit the ship, it could be done secretly through the port. Many times, pirates have to be secretive, and this service in Pirate City is humanization.
With these trivial matters taken care of, Tonk and his group officially entered Pirate City.
