Plissen tugged at the young man's fair face and said, "Tietie, our ship is so broken, what's there for you to steal? Isn't the merchant ship next to it a more suitable choice?"
"I didn't steal anything, I just picked up two tangerines in the cabin to eat." The young man felt a little pain from being grabbed, and his eyes were a little aggrieved.
"Haha, two?" Kalian sneered a few times, stretched out his hand and lifted the boy up again. As Kalian's arms continued to shake, the things hidden in the boy's shabby clothes also fell to the deck. .
A total of seven tangerines fell on the deck, which were very eye-catching.
"Tie Tie, you seem to be showing off a lot of oranges." Plisson laughed at the oranges that fell from the boy's body. He thought he had stolen something, but it turned out to be just a few oranges.
The young man looked at the oranges that had fallen to the ground, and then lowered his head angrily, "I actually wanted to come here to apply for a job as a crew member, but I came a little early, and none of you seemed to be in the ship, and then I fell asleep in the cabin. Yes, I was a little hungry when I woke up, so I ate a few oranges that were left in the cabin."
"Applying for a job as a crew member? I am not an entrepreneur from Blue Pearl Harbor. Child labor is not accepted here." Plisson shook his head.
"I'm very capable, and I don't need a salary. I just care about food and housing." The young man pleaded.
"No salary, then I'll think about it." Plisson touched his chin, and then continued: "What position are you applying for here?"
"pirate."
"ha?"
After hearing the young man's words, the surrounding sailors' expressions became a little tense. In Norton today, pirates are no longer the "upright" word they used to be. They must beware of the appearance of the navy at any time. But now this word suddenly appeared in the mouth of a little thief, which indeed made them a little worried.
However, as the Ghost Sheep sailed faster and faster, and they were getting farther and farther away from the Red Rose Harbor Pier, the sailors' hearts were slightly relieved.
The pirates on the deck were silent for a while, and then Pleasant slowly spoke: "How did you know we were pirates?"
This is what Pleasant doesn't understand. They have already taken down the pirate flag and disguised it as an ordinary ship. Even if someone can recognize the familiar face above, they will probably only be colleagues or the navy, not He is a child of only eleven or twelve years old.
"There is the pirate flag you took down in the cabin." The boy replied to Plisson.
"..." Plisson really didn't expect this.
"If I guess correctly, you should be the captain of this ship. Can I join you?"
"How did you know that I was the captain of this ship?" Plisson looked at the blond boy with interest.
"Those like you who wear better clothes, are blind in one eye, and have a weapon hanging on your waist are usually pirate captains. Oh, by the way, if you break another hand or foot, That would be more in line with the image of a pirate captain.”
"You've read too many novels, haven't you? Who told you that pirate captains must be disabled?" Plisson grabbed the boy's face again. I have to say that the boy's face was white and soft, and it felt good when he pulled it. Pretty good.
"Woo, stop pulling, stop pulling, you're going to tear off my face." The young man covered his slightly red and swollen left face and looked at the smiling Plisson with aggrievedness.
Plisson took his hand back and continued to ask: "In Norton, pirate is not an auspicious word. Since you know that I am a pirate captain, why are you not afraid of me."
"Because you are very handsome."
"Quite discerning." Plisson was amused by the boy's words.
Among Norton's pirates, his appearance can be said to be the most iconic. Whether it is the wanted poster with a high bounty posted on the street or the terrifying legend used to scare children, most of them cannot escape his appearance. The corpse-like face, combined with the way he smiles from time to time, is a unique feature.
Because of this, coupled with a lot of derogatory rumors about Pleasant, even though Pleasant himself is indeed good-looking, there are very few people who directly praise his handsomeness.
"May I have your name?"
"My name is Onai, a native of Norton."
"That's a good name." Plisson patted Onai's shoulder, "Do you really want to be a pirate? Pirates in reality are not as glorious as what is written in the Ranger biography, and in Norton now, they are more like Compared to being like a rat crossing the street..."
"Being a pirate has been my ideal since I was a child." Aunai interrupted Pleasant's words.
"Your ideal is unique enough." The corner of Plisson's mouth twitched, "This is the first time I've heard someone regard pirates as an ideal."
"I hope you can help me."
"Heh." Plisson didn't say anything to Onaiduo. He just looked at Suoan aside, "Mr. First Mate, prepare a room for this kid."
"Ah? Captain, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
"Are you questioning my decision?"
"I don't dare." Suo An quickly lowered his head.
"It's nothing to give out an extra piece of dry food." Plisson picked up the oranges on the ground and handed them to Onai, "These oranges are for you to eat. You are not allowed to sneak into the cabin and steal them. This thing It's rationed, and I don't want my crew to get sepsis."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Captain." Onai quickly took the orange from Plisson's hand, looking delighted.
"By the way, there is no limit to my supply of oranges. I want to show off as many as I want." Plisson smiled slightly, then walked briskly towards the captain's cabin. Before approaching the door, he Suddenly called Karian.
"Karian, I want to eat fried fish steak. It will be delivered to my room in an hour."
"Okay Captain." Kalyan nodded.
After Pleasant finished speaking, he opened the door and entered the captain's cabin, leaving only the people standing on the deck.
Suoan glanced helplessly at the door of the captain's cabin, and then turned his gaze to Onai, who seemed to have not yet realized what had happened.
"Boy, the sea is far more cruel than you think. There are many things you have to be careful of, such as other fellow pirates, the navy, and our captain."
"captain?"
"Don't think too much, come with me, I'll show you your room."
...........
Known as the golden sea in the West Sea, it is the junction of the three provinces. It is also located on the edge of the southern border of the empire and the western border of the empire. This is the most prosperous sea area in the West Sea, and it is also the most chaotic sea area in the West Sea.
This is the only way for transactions between the South China Sea countries and the Sky Eagle Empire, and it is also an important place for the various battles between Archduke Vlad and Archduke Bellvien. It seems that the scope it refers to is not large, but in fact it is The scope of the delineation is far beyond the imagination of many people. This is one of the reasons why it is named the Golden Sea. However, compared to the Golden Sea, this sea area has a more famous title... Pirates Town of.
...........
On a lonely and uninhabited sea surface in the Golden Sea, a majestic dark shadow slowly emerged.
This is a very huge terrifying black shadow. From a distance, it looks like a huge black fortress emerging from the sea, a giant fortress nearly a kilometer long. And if you get closer, you will find that this is not a castle or anything like that, but a ship, a big and scary ship.
There are many tall buildings rising up on the black deck. They sit upright on this huge ship, making this extremely weird ship more like a fortress parading on the sea.
There was no one on the nearly kilometer-long ship, and the black sails that shot straight into the sky were blown by the wind. Although there was no one on board, the giant ship was still moving towards the north at an extremely fast speed.
Suddenly, an extremely blazing fire appeared on the bow of the giant ship. The terrifying flames that burned to the extreme exuded a pale light. The extremely spreading fire almost illuminated the pitch-black giant ship in the night as bright as day.
But almost in an instant, the white fire suddenly turned green. The floating green fire and the entire giant ship seemed to have turned into a ghost ship coming out of a ghost land.
On the wide and empty bow, a figure appeared on it following the green firelight. He was wearing a dark black aristocratic coat, but the degree of wear and tear of this supposedly exquisite black coat was astonishing, regardless of the holes in the two rooms. Even the patches on the back exuded an air of dilapidation, just like the person wearing the clothes, exuding the air of old age.
There is a sense of vicissitudes of time in his already gray temples. The dense wrinkles on his face make his originally handsome face look extremely old. The green fire that appears behind him makes his originally lackluster color even more... His face was extremely pale.
The still shining golden noble crest hung on his chest, which seemed a bit incompatible with his twilight temperament.
This noble medal is the symbol of the noble knights in the Sky Eagle Empire, with the baron bronze seal, viscount silver medal, earl gold pattern, marquis platinum, and ducal purple gold.
As for the Grand Duke of the Four Realms on it, there is an additional gemstone symbolizing status on the purple gold. For example, the Grand Duke Rogge of the North has a red gemstone, just as he is called by the outside world, the undefeated founding hero. , the red-blooded lion of the empire.
This added ruby is exactly the infinite glory that Arthur Rogge possesses when he is known as the strongest warrior in the world.
The old man, who had almost half of his foot on the coffin board, took a step towards the bow of the ship with his crutches. Only his eyes had a slight sense of youthfulness in his old face. He raised his head and looked slightly at the sky. Lips slightly parted.
"I don't have much time left for Sin Mark..."
His gaze was very deep, like the endless abyss at the southern end of the world.
"It's time to put an end to what happened in the past..."
