The die has fallen.
Before Andrea's navy rushed up, the soldiers of the island republic only had time to deflect the ship at an angle of less than 45 degrees. With dull sounds, huge ramming horns stabbed into the island republic's warships from behind one after another. The Ligurian navy flexibly slid the ship and quickly pulled the collision angle away from the enemy ship. After that, the seawater rolled onto the warships of the island republic.
As the Ligurian navy advanced further, the ships of both sides were mixed together. A melee at sea began.
The powerful ocean fire completely lost its use in such a scene.
The soldiers of the Island Republic were busy responding to Andrea's attack, but they heard a chilling voice from every Ligurian warship:
"Ocean Fire, prepare!"
The soldiers of the island republic couldn't understand why the Republic of Liguria dared to use ocean fire at this time. Such a powerful weapon would kill both sides!
But I saw flaming bottles falling from the sky. The liquid spilled from it flowed everywhere, setting fire to their sails, setting fire to their oars, setting fire to their decks, setting fire to their rudders.
This is Ella’s Ocean Fire. It will not explode in the air or explode in the water, and is much milder than the dangerous ocean fire of the Republic of the Islands. But no matter how gentle it is, it is still a weapon. It mercilessly burned the warships of the Island Republic, and the soldiers of the Island Republic on the burned ships fled with their heads in their hands.
Yes, it is not as overbearingly powerful, but because of this, the soldiers of the Republic of Liguria can now use it with peace of mind - because they know that this weapon will not easily hurt themselves.
Ella's fleet, which had been ambushed in the distance, approached. It was the Pirate Kingdom's longship equipped with a crow's gangplank. They were rushing towards the enemy's bow equipped with Ocean Fire, and therefore encountered strong resistance from Ocean Fire. But the pirates did not continue to attack. Instead, they dispersed the fleet with a smile and surrounded both sides of the island republic.
As a result, the soldiers of the Island Republic desperately discovered that the fire that continued to burn on the sea had cut off their last retreat.
The sieve has settled. The winner was Ira Cornelius Scipio.
Andrea's sharp eyes swept across the battlefield, and finally stopped at the flagship of the Ligurian Republic. He raised his cane and pointed forward.
"Come forward," he said, "I will avenge Ansaldo myself."
Contarini on the flagship was anxiously directing the battle. He knew that once his fleet was destroyed here, the coalition forces of the Seven Hills Empire, the Pirate Kingdom, and the Republic of Liguria would regain control of the sea. As the warning that Ella left for Yinpolita shows - all their eggs are hung on the rope of sea control.
"Where is Yin Polita?" He couldn't find Yin Polita's voice and shouted, "Where is Yin Polita?"
But I heard a soldier in the distance reply: "I saw her just taking off her clothes, only wearing a layer of linen, and jumped into the sea!"
"That damn slave girl!"
Contarini was almost crazy with anxiety. At this moment, he saw a battleship of the Ligurian Republic rushing towards it. Even if he turned to ashes, he would know the old man standing on the bow of the ship. He was the Admiral of the Ligurian Republic, Andrea Doria!
"Hurry up and turn the bow back!" he shouted, "At least kill Andrea too!"
In the melee, the flagship he was riding on had actually adjusted its position. With just a slight deflection, the ocean fire on the bow of the ship turned towards Andrea.
The soldiers around Andrea shouted in fear: "Marshal, it's the fire of the ocean! They are preparing to use the fire of the ocean to kill us together!"
Andrea stood motionless at the bow of the boat, like a mountain.
"Go ahead," he said. "I bet he doesn't have an ocean fire on board."
Before Andrea could get close, Contarini caused the ocean fire on the bow to spit out tongues of flame. Contarini laughed happily amid the spray of the explosion.
However, the explosion only sounded once and then stopped abruptly. Andrea's men broke through the meager flames and drove the ramming horn deep into Contarini's flagship.

"Why did the fire stop?" Contarini shouted like crazy, "Don't worry about the collision, keep spitting fire, keep spitting fire, let Andrea and us die together!"
"I've been keeping people's eyes on your flagship along the way. You've burned so many of my soldiers to death and burned so many of my warships. Don't you think you don't have to pay any price?" Andrea raised her eyebrows. Head, "The more sophisticated the weapon, the harder it is to replenish it - Contarini, do you still have enough Ocean Fire?"
Contarini screamed strangely, threw himself on the Ocean Fire device, and used his fingernails to forcefully lift the lid open. It was as empty as Andrea said.
"I have captured your warships, and I know exactly how long your ocean fire can be used." Andrea's face showed a trace of ridicule, "Trash, Contarini, you have no control over your own hands." His knowledge of weapons is not even as good as mine."
"Andrea, Andrea you..."
Contarini turned blue with anger, bent down on the ground to look for the bow and arrows thrown by the soldiers, and prepared to shoot Andrea with one arrow.
"That's enough, that's it."
Andrea turned his back and waved, and his soldiers placed two large shields behind him. At the same time, Andrea's voice came from behind the big shield: "Let them taste the fire of the Swedish king's sea. Get some more sand and put out the fire on the deck."
The island republic's fleet was destroyed in the port of Azov City, and only a dozen small boats fled back to the Black Sea Strait in despair.
On the captured Island Republic warships, Andrea found that most of the ships had more than half of the Ocean Fire left - if he had a head-on confrontation with the Island Republic's navy, he would have no chance of winning even in a wide sea.
He led the soldiers to the city of Azov. He saw Ayla's battle flag fluttering on the wall. Under the battle flag, the young king was watching him. Andrea took a deep breath, then spread her arms, and took the lead in shouting:
"Imbrado!"
As Ligurians with a close relationship with the Seven Hills Empire, the soldiers naturally knew the meaning of this title. As soon as Andrea took the lead, they could no longer bear the joy of victory, and imitated Andrea's example and shouted towards Ella;
"Imberado! Imberado! Imberado!"
Ella shook her head and put her index finger in front of her mouth to signal the soldiers to quiet down.
"It's not Imperado—it's Baselisa."
