Chapter 24 Adele's Ambition
Viper Island.※%
With the issuance of Sauron's enlistment order, the entire South Coast pirate group was operating. The southern island country belonged to the coastal principality. Although its wealth was not as good as Arendell, it was much better than other places. In addition, after Sauron unified the South Coast, private plundering was strictly prohibited. Many small and medium-sized pirates had no business recently and could only go through business with the fleet controlled by Sauron behind the scenes. Although the profits of overseas routes and Oriental routes were quite high, the round trip was also very time-consuming, especially the Oriental routes would take as long as half a year to go back and forth. The profits earned by hard sailing for half a year were no more comfortable than robbing a merchant ship.
Some people like a stable life.
But there are also some who like to stimulate and take risks. Many of them still desire "get it for nothing".
The Pirate King's order was quickly responded by many people. Even those who were not interested in it were afraid and pleased Sauron, and they planned to send some people to fight. Anyway, the navy of the southern island country was still in Arendale, and the regular army was basically not their turn to deal with it. Their task was to harass the coast. At worst, when the navy of the southern island country came back, they were sneaking away, and most of the pirates were clutches, and they were not afraid of being caught by the navy.
but.
Some others also had other ideas about this order.
The next night.
In a stronghold at the shipwreck port, several other pirate leaders under Sauron gathered here.
"Adele Isabella."
Scarface frowned and looked at the other pirate leaders present, and said in a deep voice: "What are you secretly calling us here?"
He is more than one pirate leader present.
In addition to Scarface, there are also one-eyed dragon, giant, jazz, housekeeper, etc. Basically, except for the half-elf mate, nearly half of the other pirate leaders came. For the invitation of the red-haired pirate, others seemed to understand what she meant, and they were also staring at her with confusion on their faces.
"I'm going to invite everyone here this time. I want to discuss something with you."
The red-haired pirate Adele Isabella looked at the pirate leader present and said in a narrow voice: "This time, Lord Sauron issued an order to attack the southern island nation. In the order, he told us to act according to the opportunity, with the focus on harassing the southern island nation along the coast and then trying to find ways to weaken their strength."
"So I have a bolder idea!"
The red-haired pirate waved his hand and asked someone to take out a map, then pointed to a mark on it and said to the other pirate leaders: "This is the capital of the southern island country, and this is their coastline."
“This is the West Coast route.”
"From here to here, unless you force yourself to break into the territory of the Dark Tide Fishman, you will inevitably pass by near the Dark Tide Canyon."
Speaking of this, she turned around and glanced at the others.
It was simple to be able to be promoted to the level of pirate leader by Sauron all the way. It was easy for someone to guess what she thought, and even if she didn't, she understood something.
"If we attack the southern island nation, Arendale's navy will inevitably return to defense!"
The red-haired pirate had a calm expression and said in a firm voice: "The order sent back by His Excellency Sauron is very firm. It seems that he has reached an important strategic cooperation with Arendale."
"So, if we can expand the results of the battle, maybe we can be very satisfied!"
The one-eyed dragon listened quietly, playing with the dagger in her hand, and after she paused, she slowly said: "You mean? We ambush the withdrawn navy in the Dark Tide Canyon?"
"Waring with the regular navy, our chances of winning are not that high!"
The red-haired pirate turned around and stared at him, slowly saying, "We have at least 60% chance of winning. In terms of equipment, we are not weaker than the regular army. In terms of combat effectiveness, our subordinates are all elites who have grown up in killing. The navy of the southern island country only trains a few times a month, and we wander on the sea all year round, and we have a greater chance of winning when fighting."
"If we can severely damage or even eliminate the navy of the southern island countries, then from here to here, all of us will be our territory."
The other pirate leaders present fell into deep thought when they heard this.
The Jazz looked up at the map and suddenly said, "Why don't you invite Kasa (half-elf first mate)? His strength is the strongest among us, and he has the most elite troops under his command!"
The red-haired pirate's expression was a little stiff. Then he said calmly: "Because his status and power are already high enough."
"Besides, he has to restrain the capitals that threaten the southern island countries."
"He is now in charge of the Eastern route. If this mission is completed, as the commander of the Dragon-Headed Battleship, his contribution will definitely be greater than any of us present."
"If this action is successful."
"Then routes from the shipwreck bay all the way to the west coastline and then to the southern island countries, and even routes connecting Allendale, will be included in our territory."
"I think these territories should be left to other people who have made contributions to manage."
"What do you think?"
Hearing the words of the red-haired pirate, the other pirate leaders present couldn't help but fall into deep thought, many of whom had slightly bright eyes.
Yes.
The power of the half-elves' first mate is already very high.
He took charge of the richest Oriental route, and his warships were more than them. If he made the most contribution to this mission, according to the style of His Excellency Sauron's contribution, it is very likely that the territory near the shipwreck bay would be handed over to him. The pirate leaders present had no idea, and they all thought that their territory would be larger and their subordinates would be more famous and higher. If they could take the West Coast, it would be equivalent to opening up the route connecting Arendell, which was also a rich territory. In terms of foundation, it would not be much worse than the overseas archipelago and the Oriental route.
If you want to go further, you must make greater contributions.
There is a big cake from north of the shipwreck bay. If taken down, many of them can become pirate leaders in charge.
"What are your plans?"
The first person to speak was Scarface. His strength was greatly reduced because of the fall of Viper Island. Even after defeating the Pirate King Asrold, his territory is still the least among other pirate leaders. So he first responded to the plan of the red-haired pirate and said in a deep voice: "It is not that easy to deal with a regular navy! We must formulate a detailed combat plan!"
The red-haired pirate smiled when he heard this, and then turned his gaze to other pirate leaders.
Obviously many people are already moved.
The interests of the West Coastline are great enough, and their status is no better than half the elf first mate, but they may not have no idea of competing in their hearts. Now that there is a chance to make greater contributions, they are naturally a bit moved.
Who is the half-elf first mate?
Back then, he was just a pirate sailor under the red-haired pirate. Because of the promotion of His Excellency Sauron, he became the first mate of a ship.
But what about him now?
He was in charge of the Eastern route alone, and there were thousands of pirates under his command, and hundreds of warships of all sizes. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were below one person and above ten thousand. The other pirate leaders present were the top leaders and second leaders of a pirate force, and they might not be really convinced by the half-elf lieutenant. The red-haired female pirate Adele just kept thinking about fighting with him.
Sauron had a cruel method of fighting against the pirate leader under his command. If he wanted to overwhelm more than half of the elf mate, he had to make greater contributions.

Allendale.
Three days passed quickly, and Sauron's figure came to the port again.
On this day, Arendale seemed a little different, because a fog appeared strangely near the port, which surprised others and even alarmed some witches in the palace. However, they did not find anything. The port was quite calm today, and everything seemed to be no different from the past. However, at the bottom of Arendale's sea, a huge black shadow gradually approached, and finally stayed somewhere, as if waiting for someone to arrive.
Sauron's figure gradually walked towards the sea.
He stepped on the shimmering sea water. As he gradually approached the deeper sea, a huge black shadow appeared from his feet. The first thing that floated to the sea were extremely sharp bone spurs, and then the huge hideous back. Sauron stood on the head of the mutant killer whale, and gradually entered the deeper sea as it swam.
Rumble!
The sea water in front separated in all directions, a black mast broke out from the seabed, and then the ghost ship Death Speaker rose from the seabed.
The fog around became even more intense!
After the war with the pirate king Asrold, the ghost ship Death Speaker seemed to have achieved some improvement. The number of souls it bound increased a lot, but there has not yet been a more obvious mutation. It seems that the energy of death is not strong enough. As a type of activates the life of the undead, the ghost ship Death Speaker belongs to the life mechanical body, which means it also has advanced potential.
Sauron's figure flew out and landed on the deck of the Dead Speaker on the sea.
Click!
He landed gently on the cabin, then raised his hand and took off the black cloak on his body, and said in a voice: "Go ahead at full speed!"
Hurry up!
The undead moves, the ghost sails automatically open, and the Dead Speech breaks through the waves at an extremely fast speed. A burst of strange wails sounded, and the dead souls bound on the ghost ship seemed to have a hazy phantom, moving around the hull like a ghost, making the Dead Speech more amazing!
This is a battle belonging to one person.
Sauron is ready to fight the navy of the southern island nation and the pirates of Viku in Iceland alone!
