The pirates’ news was right. A Pirate Lord had taken action.
Perhaps in Roy’s view, he was only helping Cassandra complete her revenge, but in reality, in the eyes of the pirates, this matter had already risen to a legendary level!
Demon, hellhound, lich! These creatures that only existed in the legends of religions appeared in real life and caused the pirates to be in a mess. But on the other hand, if someone could resolve this matter, would that not mean that they would gain great prestige?
Just like the pirate captain Reid, who thought that he could become the Undead Killer and had never suspected that humans were overestimating themselves and thinking wishfully…
However, no one had expected that the first to step forward would be Ammand, Pirate Lord of the Black Sea!
As one of the infamous Nine Pirate Lords who roamed the Seven Seas, Ammand was not someone with low intelligence. Before the other Pirate Lords made a sound, he should not have jumped out in such a hurry. With his reputation, it seemed unnecessary for him to rely on defeating the Frozen Ghost Ship to make a name for himself. But he became the first person to speak up about intending to get rid of the Frozen Ghost Ship.
In the beginning, when the pirates in Tortuga Port heard this news, they were a little skeptical, but then someone pointed out that this might have something to do with Ammand’s faith.
Yes, the Pirate Lord of the Black Sea was religious…
Demons and undead were creatures from the legends of the Abrahamic religions. Even the priests had not come out to eliminate evil, so what did it have to do with Ammand? But there was no other way. Most of the time, there was no need for a reason for this kind of religious struggle. Ammand thought that if he could eliminate the demon on the Frozen Ghost Ship, would that not prove that he was truly the son of the Black Sea under the guidance of Allah? Would that not prove that Allah was greater than God?
The pirates could roughly guess what Ammand was thinking, so they were all waiting to see what would happen.
Regarding the Pirate Lord of the Black Sea, pirates were also very afraid of him because the Pirate Lord and the son of the Black Sea was also an existence that knew how to use supernatural powers. It was said that in his pirate fleet, every ship had voodoo zombies on them. These voodoo zombies were also known as reanimated corpses, and Ammand controlled them to fight for him. They were monsters with immense strength that did not feel pain and were also difficult to kill. It was with the help of these reanimated corpses that Ammand could be said to be invincible.
And Ammand himself knew how to use voodoo dolls, and he could use curses to kill his enemies.
In the face of such a strange opponent, ordinary pirates were completely helpless, so they were extremely afraid of Ammand and did not dare to provoke him.
But now, Ammand was representing the pirates, so even if they were afraid of Ammand, the pirates were not stingy with their praises for him. When they talked about this in the taverns, they all bootlicked him from afar.
If Ammand really succeeded, his reputation would leap to the top of the Nine Pirate Lords…
Roy did not know about this, but about twelve days later, Roy found a large fleet appearing around the Frozen Ghost Ship.
In the beginning, Roy thought that it was the Royal Navy or the Spanish Navy. After all, although the targets of Cassandra’s revenge were pirates, because she and Roy were not humans, there was no guarantee that the Royal Navy and the Spanish Navy would not appear to ‘uphold justice’. In his impression, only these two countries had large fleets.
However, Roy realized that he was wrong when he saw the black pirate flags hanging on the ships.
Although the pirates called Roy and Cassandra’s ship the Frozen Ghost Ship, it was not a real ghost ship after all, and it was impossible for it to truly appear and disappear. It was still traceable, so it was not surprising for the pirates to find it.
Roy did not know much about the distribution of forces in the Pirates of the Caribbean world, so he could not recognize that it was the fleet of Black Sea Pirate Lord Ammand. He only thought that the pirates were working together to resist him, but this did not hinder Roy’s anger.
Roy had attacked all the pirate ships he saw indiscriminately with Cassandra. His goal was naturally to make the pirates fear him and hand over the pirates who murdered Cassandra to appease Roy’s anger. However, after seeing this pirate fleet, Roy realized that he had underestimated the courage of these pirates.
In fact, thinking about it, it made sense. How much wealth did the great Age of Discovery represent in this sea? In order to travel the sea safely, the pirates had even dared to seal the temperamental sea goddess, let alone a demon and a lich.
“Seems that their fear of me isn’t deep enough…” Roy looked at the pirate fleet surrounding him with a sinister smile.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before the pirate fleet got close to the Frozen Ghost Ship, the rain-like cannonballs flew over. The cannonballs that did not hit the target splashed high water pillars in the sea, and the cannonballs that hit the Frozen Ghost Ship sent chunks of ice flying.
Although the dark and solid ice condensed from Roy’s frost magic could absorb the impact of the cannonballs, and it should have no problem protecting the ship, it would be too extravagant if he wasted his magic power on the ship. Thus, Roy allowed the pirates to blast the Frozen Ghost Ship to smithereens and flew into the sky with Fat Tiger and Cassandra.
“Catch up from behind. I’ll teach them a lesson first!” Roy said to Cassandra before he flapped his wings and flew toward the pirate ships.
Due to the distance, the pirates did not see Roy flying up. They only saw the Frozen Ghost Ship turn into countless fragments under the bombardment of countless cannons and could not help but cheer loudly.
But before they could celebrate, Roy swooped down from the sky!
Boom! Roy landed on one of the ships in the fleet, shaking the entire ship twice, causing large cracks to appear on the deck.
Under the shocked gazes of the pirates, Roy slowly stood up. He spread his arms and wings and let out a loud roar!
Roar!!!
With this loud roar, Roy’s Halo of Fear fully activated. An invisible force field spread out and enveloped the entire pirate ship.
The two-hundred-plus pirates on the ship felt an uncontrollable strong sense of fear deep in their hearts. Their tense hands suddenly loosened, and they dropped the weapons in their hands, producing clanking sounds against the deck. Their legs seemed to lose all strength as they knelt on the ground weakly, and some of the timid pirates even wet their pants.
Not only that, with the constant influence of the Halo of Fear, these pirates actually began to scream out loud after their fear reached its peak. They fled in panic on the deck while screaming in horror. Some of the pirates closer to the ship’s side directly jumped into the sea, regardless of the winds and high waves.
The people on the pirate ship had lost their will to fight in just a single exchange. The effect of the Halo of Fear was simply unsolvable for those with weak willpower.
However, there were also some who were unaffected. They were the reanimated corpses that Ammand had arranged on the ship!
These reanimated corpses were bloated and looked like fat people, but in fact, their obese bodies were only swollen. Each of these reanimated corpses had thick and smelly boils, and yellowish-green pus constantly oozed out from the boils. The reanimated corpses all had crooked mouths, grayish-white eyes, and looked like dead people. With heavy footsteps, they rushed at Roy with various weapons in their hands.
In Roy’s eyes, these reanimated corpses were all undead that had lost their souls. Although they were called reanimated corpses, they were more like rotten flesh that could walk under the control of a secret technique.
How could Roy allow these ugly zombie creatures to approach him?
Stretching out a claw, Roy clenched his fist at a reanimated corpse. With his powerful Psychokinesis, he immediately controlled the reanimated corpse to float up and then flicked lightly. The reanimated corpse immediately smashed into the other reanimated corpses.
There were a total of six reanimated corpses on this ship. There were not many of them, but they had rushed out at the same time. After being smashed by Roy, these reanimated corpses that were not agile rolled into a pile.
There were still dozens of ships of various sizes in the fleet. Roy did not plan to waste time on these guys. While these reanimated corpses were rolling together, Roy took out Frostmourne from the system space!
Holding Frostmourne pointed down, Roy stabbed his sword into the cracked deck!
The next second, there was a series of cracking sounds. The deck of the ship began to collapse under the powerful destructive force of Frostmourne, and countless cracks spread from the deck to the hold.
The intense cold aura coming from the sword also froze the water vapor in the cracks to form ice. This way, when the cracks were full of ice, the entire ship would no longer be unable to hold on!
With a loud bang, the entire ship exploded!
The large ship shattered into tens of thousands of pieces in the blink of an eye, as if it had been hit by a bomb weighing thousands of kilograms. However, there was no fire in sight. There were only countless ice crystals reflecting sunlight in the fragments. What a cruel and tragic scene…
After Roy destroyed the ship, the pirates fell into the water, while Roy flapped his wings in the air and turned to attack another ship!
