Lübeck's sailors maneuvered the ship and impatiently approached the flying Zealander.
Halfway through, Janus thought that although this group of pirates killed the King of Sweden, there were still many people. Jumping directly onto the deck, if the negotiation fails, it may still be a bit dangerous. So, after the ship got within a certain range of the flying Sealander, he stopped the ship. The first mate on the ship took his place and shouted to the flying Sealander:
"Hey, you guys, send a few representatives to our ship to negotiate!"
"Our ship is bigger!" The pirates on the ship shouted one after another, "It's better to come to our ship to negotiate!"
"It's you who want to surrender!" the first mate continued to shout, "How can there be any reason for us to come on our own initiative?"
"But you're a bit far away!" The pirates responded in unison, "We can't jump over! We can't even jump over in the pole vault!"
"If you can't jump, just swim! You have to show your sincerity, right?"
"No, no! If this happens, we will not surrender!"
"Captain." The first mate looked back at Janus, "They said they would not surrender."
Janus frowned again: "Who is your leader now? The King of Sweden is dead, there must be someone who can talk about things, right?"
"Of course it's me, Captain Blackbeard!"
Ella climbed to the edge of the deck, stuck her head out, waved her "bloody" hand, and smiled "hehe".
She didn't even rely on her contract with Draguet this time. The pirate who just pierced her heart was played by Dust. Master and apprentice were able to do this kind of trick with ease.
Lübeck's fleet suddenly fell into chaos. Janus was the first to react: "You've been tricked! Run away!"
Soon enough, the giant crossbows on the deck of the flying Zealander fired crossbow bolts at Lübeck's fleet one after another. Those crossbow arrows were powerful and shaped like spears, and they easily penetrated the hull of the merchant ship. Afterwards, the rope was connected, and Lübeck's fleet wanted to evacuate, but the ship's hull was strongly held by the rope. Almost at the same time, the pirates hiding in the cabin rushed onto the deck and slid along the rope towards Lübeck's fleet.
"Don't panic, just hold on with all your strength!"
The first mate on the ship picked up a broom on the deck and shouted to the sailors:
"Cut the ropes and then drive these pirates into the water! They have no masts and can't catch up with us!"
But his arm was pressed down by Janus: "Don't engage in a meaningless battle, let's surrender."
The first mate looked at Janus in shock: "Surrender?"
"How much money does the mayor give us? Is it enough for us to risk his life?"
"But these are pirates! Pirates who have taken away the flag of the King of Sweden and are wearing black skulls!" the first mate shouted. "If we surrender, we might be killed!"
"It's not our choice. You see, our sailors have surrendered."
In just a few words, the pirates had taken over the deck. Janus raised his hands as a sign of surrender. Seeing this, the first mate had no choice but to drop the broom in his hand and raised his hands like Janus did.
"The King of Sweden may need us to provide testimony against the great mayor." Janus looked at the pirates surrounding him calmly, "And if he is really killed, he can only accept his fate."
The pirates tied up Janus and others, carried them back to the flying Sealander, and threw them in front of Ella.
The first mate secretly raised his head and looked at the woman sitting in front of them - her figure was as poor as two years ago, but her temperament was completely different. The King of Sweden who robbed Lübeck two years ago looked more or less like a royal family, but now he had his feet crossed, his body tilted, his hands folded, and he looked like a hooligan. Half of the black beard stuck to her lips fell off, but she didn't seem to notice it at all, and proudly shook the right half of her beard.
"Uh-huh...huh? Humph!"
The woman deliberately spoke only onomatopoeia. When the first mate couldn't hold it any longer, she finally asked:
"Why are they just some minions? Where is your big mayor?"
"In our culture, it is impossible for guys with high positions to personally participate in such adventures." Janus replied calmly from the side, "Generally speaking, the higher the status, the less courageous. And pirates Naturally, you cannot be compared to the Swedish King of the Kingdom."
"King of Sweden? Where is the King of Sweden?"
Ella snorted deliberately and stroked the right half of his beard like the old man in her impression.
"I am the captain of the Flying Dutchman, the pirate Blackbeard! If you admit the wrong person again, I will throw you into the sea and feed it to the spinyback rays! Are you afraid of the spinyback rays?"
Janus had to shut up. Since Ella denies that she is the King of Sweden, there is no way to negotiate.
"Last time, I saw that your fleet had ten ships. Why are there only seven ships left now?" Ella tried her best to widen her eyes and pretend to be fierce. "Your great mayor is hiding there." Over there! Say, where are the remaining three ships? If you can’t answer, I’ll throw you into the sea and feed them to the polypods! Are you afraid of the polypods?”
Janus didn't react, but the first officer was frightened.
"Believe us, the mayor really didn't come!" His voice was slightly crying, "Those three ships sank in the last storm!"
"What???" Ella suddenly jumped up from her chair, "What about the goods I ordered?"
"The goods ordered by the King of Sweden." Amy reminded from the side.
"Yes...the goods ordered by the King of Sweden are so short of three ships??? How are you going to compensate...compensate me for the losses due to the robbery?"
"What do you mean by losses due to robbery?" the first mate asked confusedly from below.
"Originally, I could grab ten ships of cargo, but now there are only seven ships left! Waste, you bunch of waste! How dare the mayor of Lubeck let you wastes take my cargo to sea!"
Ella stamped her foot in front of Janus angrily.
"The previous mayor was quite reasonable, but why is he so awkward this time! He can't make any profit from ten shipments of goods, but he insists on fighting for Vinland's trading rights with me! Is there anyone doing this kind of business? Huh? Why doesn't his pig brain think about where Vinland is? Can his broken ship go there? Huh? Well, he's lost three of my cargoes! If I want to catch him, I'll take him directly Stay in the pig pen and think about your mistakes!!"
"So..." the first mate asked quietly from below, "are you really the King of Sweden?"
Ella turned her head suddenly and looked at the first mate and Janus with murderous eyes.
"Estrade!" She asked loudly the staff officer next to her who was Ragnar's subordinate, "How did you deal with this kind of waste before?"
"If there are vacancies on the ship, drag them ashore and sell them as slaves." Estrade replied, "If there are no vacancies on the ship, just tie them up and sink them into the sea."
