Black sail

Chapter 635 XV. The Game of Marrying a Girl
"No, as the King of the East Sea, can you stop making such a fuss? You represent the face of the entire East Sea. Even if the Emperor were to fly over and deliver a punch, and you were to dodge in a sorry state, you should at least smooth your hair down, you bastard."

Ryan was instructing Lister.

"I'm Lu Mingfei, who just came back from a AAA game."

Shadi was furious with Rein and Micah, who could unlock the second stage without doing anything, while he had painstakingly cultivated the Yin-Yang Great Joy with Sakai Chiyo to slowly recover his strength.

In order to surpass these people, he secretly resolved to hone his吐槽 (tu cao, a form of witty retort) skills.

"Although I don't know what happened, I am now unexpectedly rich. In the Narrow Sea, everywhere is like a hamster island. Surpassing the Connecting Immortal is only a matter of time."

Archer, who had briefly regained his senses, said this, and then downed a few more mouthfuls of wine. He had known this day would come. It was understandable that Lister could no longer stay in the East China Sea and was now fleeing to the Narrow Sea with the money.

"Hashiro Island... Teacher is right."

Magnus chimed in, not understanding what it meant. It must be a place of cultivation, immortals... a term from the Far East, something that sounds impressive but is actually quite obscure.

"Godf***ing Bazao Island! Godf***ing anti-mating forces!"

Li Site was deeply shocked. How could someone who didn't even know what year it was remember unimportant stories so clearly?
[Now, please have two contestants come up and choose their weapons.]

Listening to the broadcast, Li Si Te's heart was in his throat. The executioner of the Forgotten Harbor of the Cross Alliance could only be that person, the one known as the Grim Reaper.

He was once just a mortal, without the Sovereign Sword. He only survived because his head was blown off and he lost consciousness. In reality, he did not know the strength of the Grim Reaper or the source of his power.

There are so-called cultivation methods in this world to enhance physical fitness, but they must be practiced from adolescence and cannot be neglected. That is why people like Gloria and Meredith can unleash such strong power with human bodies.

The Black Sail Pirates are a diverse group, and strictly speaking, only Xia Di possesses a cultivation method, which he learned from the Far East.

The methods native to the Western Continent were also known to Raine when he was in the adventurer's group. He became stupid after staying in the East Sea for too long. As for Killer, I'm not sure. This guy is quite eccentric, and he probably has them too. He is a true master with the heart of an apprentice, and he practices every day.

Everyone else on the ship was a genius, either a racially superior stat monster or a bespectacled, shady guy.

Micah, needless to say, is a doctor who makes a living with his skills. He just had a lucky encounter in the Burial Grounds and now has a body full of tattoos that look pretty cool. Ryze is another one, and he might be going to Runeterra to collect runes. Ahri, Kai'Sa, Widowmaker, Akali, and the K/DA girl group are going to be in for a lot of trouble.

The old man is the ultimate idiot and is not within the scope of this discussion.

So Lisite felt very strange, recalling that it was a miracle that he had survived such injuries eleven years ago.

The events surrounding Marcus, whom Lister encountered in the Battle of Michalant, had already given him some suspicion last year.

I don't want to think about these things.

That's the Demon Eye Kyo, Salert. Maybe he can do it. Although I don't know the Shinigami's strength, he works for Akasa.

That warlock was too mysterious. Over the past eleven years, Lister had tried every means to find out about him through various channels, but still came up empty-handed. He was a warlock outside the Warlock Council Tower Alliance system.

Hidden within the Aranian court, besides the emperor, Augustus, the acting chairman of the military council, and Cicero, the governor of the national bank, were the fourth most powerful figures in Aran, wielding immense power.

Damn it, can Salert win?

Lister listened to the radio broadcast, but the female host kept pressing him with her pre-match introduction, talking about Salet's past misdeeds of killing his entire family.

I wish I could fly over and help Salert slash him.

Hearing Archer's words.

Rein seemed thoughtful. Although he was a fan of Fury, he wasn't picky about food or drink; every race had its own unique charm. Indeed, as long as there was a Golden Dragon, anywhere could be a paradise. He had already experienced Dugri's Cloud Palace, one of the top 10 clubs in the Western Continent, but there were still nine more to go. The Sky Palace in the Narrow Sea was said to be exceptional, according to the leader of the Digimon Masters.

“Micah is too foolish. To be honest, no matter how good-looking or how amazing your figure is, it’s useless once the novelty wears off. Quantity is king. Above the heavens, the cycle of reincarnation is hard to reverse. After Emperor Maixian stepped into the Emperor Realm, his foundation was unstable and he was contaminated by the strange black blood of the plateau. He realized that there was a big problem with himself and was afraid of bringing great disaster to the world. So he locked his true body in the ultimate ancient land, under the beautiful pomegranate skirt.”

Rein has figured out the corruption of the Immortal Emperor, and the Corpse Immortal Emperor is now considered to be one of them.

"So that's how it is, nine dragons pulling a coffin."

Morrison suddenly realized that Micah's playful antics with the energetic maid in the wetlands had completely won him over. Lazy sleeping doesn't have a rearview mirror, guns don't have eyes, and the Argonians' language is incomprehensible. How could things have come to this?
Hearing Rein's words, it was as if the ancient secrets had been revealed. It was estimated that the primordial spirit connected to the Immortal Emperor had been sealed in a rotten wooden box in the Burial Ground. Only by killing Qili in the 98th cylinder of the Great Luo Sword Embryo could the dark chaos be quelled.

"This is a good thing."

Morrison played with the throwing knife, and there weren't as many girls in the world being ruined by Micah.

"Hmm?" Xia Di sensed something was wrong. After Master Mai's death, everyone had the courage to connect with the Immortal Emperor. These people would probably try to seize the opportunity to become the Immortal Emperor when they arrived at the Narrow Sea.

I glanced at Sakai Chiyo, who was practicing her sword outside the train. I'll have to find a way to get rid of her when we get to Kinpaku Port.

"Friendly reminder: the Narrow Sea is fraught with danger and the way things are done is a bit different from Alan. There, the military government system is very strict, and officials who patronize prostitutes are considered a criminal. Ports in other countries are different."

Raine used to be in an adventurer's guild, so he'd either never encountered or heard about the things that happened in the martial arts world.

"So, may I ask, in what ways are they different?"

Kawachi is even an active Hall of Fame member. Although he is not a founding member, he has invested in the company. Once the Mulon oilfield and refinery are set up, money will not be an issue.

In the past, I did high-end business, killing monsters in restricted areas and eliminating necromancers who dominated the land. As a public figure, I had to pretend to be a moral exemplar. I did honest business and hard work, and I didn't have time to understand the intricacies of the many evil forces in the Western Continent.

"The old-established powers of the Western Continent are all concerned with their image. These places are only semi-open. They are officially prohibited, but formal prohibition and actual prohibition are two different things. Alan is a military government. This society is very sophisticated. Everyone needs someone to rely on or have a powerful backer. Individuals have no room to survive. They must rely on smugglers to conduct organized sex transactions with defined territories. If a prostitute takes money but doesn't do her job, or if she doesn't do her job well enough, you can report her directly to her smuggler or supervisor. If she's caught, she'll be severely beaten. We can't let your personal greed damage the long-term collective interests."

Let's leave aside the complexities of Zeon, the homeland of the Old Man of Zeon, which is a theocratic state. Its territory isn't near the Narrow Sea, and it relies on treaties to control and lease coastal enclaves as ports. Compared to the other four permanent members of the UN Security Council, its control over the Narrow Sea is not as strong. Pedan is at the very top of the Narrow Sea, its largest port called Fog Harbor. The two ports west of the Narrow Sea are: Gureg's largest port is Free Harbor, and Ogo's port in Lostra, Trade Winds Anchorage… damn… these unconventional names are quite poetic.

In short, these economically developed areas are teeming with highly skilled self-employed individuals. Everywhere you look, there are horny bards and socialite training programs—what I'd call a "gold digger game." Those with average skills simply can't navigate it; one wrong move and you'll be ripped off and your coins will be gone.

Raine began a long speech, explaining that in order to replace the connecting immortals, he also began to create the Immortal Emperor Scripture. No matter how wealthy a person was, they couldn't withstand being constantly attacked, which would take away half of the Immortal Emperor's cultivation.

"No buddy..."

Lister was dumbfounded. He had been to Lostra many years ago and worked with Micah on counterfeit money, but that wasn't the point.

"Demon-Eyed Mad Blade Salert is fighting right now! Don't you guys care at all?"

Li Si was impressed. He was still studying all the matches. The person who lost to the stateless man, Gerdley, seemed to be from the Narrow Sea. He appeared to be a henchman of the Whale Clan, named Starbreaker Clark. Gerdley took him down but didn't kill him. This guy was actually quite nice.

The martial arts tournaments on the mainland have a great influence, and there are definitely many people who want to take advantage of the situation to cause trouble. Every victory or defeat may have far-reaching consequences.

"Although I feel very sorry for Salert, I think that even if he dies, Kaden explodes, and Micah hands over Lauzo, the Emperor shouldn't be furious. He might even want to pay homage and offer amnesty."

Ryan pondered.

At this moment, the female radio presenter's voice suddenly sounded somewhat lost.

This round of matches... saw an unprecedented unexpected situation.
