How can I become the Pirate King if you don’t work hard?.

Chapter 12 Surrender or die

next second...

boom!
The pirate ship seemed to be hit by a cannonball. A big hole was smashed on the deck, wooden boards were flying, and the mast was broken.

Zangao dodged the flying wooden planks, but his eyes were fixed on the stern figure in the middle of the deck, and he felt a chill down his spine.

Although the visitor did not say anything, the aura he exuded gave him the illusion that he was facing Clo directly.

Thoughts surged in his mind, and Zangao gradually connected the appearance of the young man in front of him with a bounty order in his memory:
"Knight Gawain? The bounty is eight million?"

When Zangao said this number, his voice was trembling.

Damn it!

My bounty is nine million, so how can a pirate with a bounty of eight million have such a terrifying murderous aura?
Just for a moment.

Zangao judged that he was definitely no match for the newcomer. If he wanted to survive, his only chance was to wait for Clo's support!

"I can explain..."

"Surrender or die!"

Gawain looked at Zangao coldly with an indifferent tone. He just wanted to suppress the pirates in front of him as quickly as possible.

After all, the potential of the people on his ship has been exhausted and they are in urgent need of new blood. These pirates in front of him are the best leeks.

As for good and evil, right and wrong, who can tell the difference in this ocean?

He never thought of himself as a good person, and unlike some people, exploiting civilians was the limit of what he could do.

"I……"

Zangao swallowed his saliva, and before he could continue, the surrounding pirates had already raised their flintlock rifles and looked at Gawain with ferocious faces...

boom!
boom!
boom!
After several consecutive gunshots, Gao Wen's figure disappeared from the deck. Just as Zangao was puzzled, a cold voice came into his ears from above:

"It looks like you made the wrong choice."

"I regret."

Everyone looked up.

Gawain gently waved his knight's sword, and a silver-white sword energy flew out of his hand, carrying a sharp aura that gradually captured everyone's attention...

laugh!
After a crisp sound, the pirate ship, which was more than fifty meters long and nearly ten meters in diameter, broke in the middle.

The two unlucky pirates were unable to dodge and were hit directly by Gawain's slash, leaving behind an arm and half of their body.

Blood spurts.

The scarlet color and the gradually sinking pirate ship awakened everyone's reason. When they looked at the slowly falling figure, there was only fear in their eyes.

"monster!"

"Same monster as the Captain!"

Zangao stood on the deck, watching Gawain slowly land on the ground, with only fear in his eyes.

Even the captain who, in his opinion, was invincible could not achieve this level with just a sword!
"escape!"

Someone cried out in surprise, and everyone came back to their senses from the shock. However, the sea was vast, the ship was destroyed, and where could they escape to?

What Gawain had just said reappeared in Zangao's mind. He made his choice without hesitation:

"Surrender! We surrender!"

"Be careful Clo, that guy has a skill called Spoon, it's so fast that it can't be seen with the naked eye."

Raise your eyebrows high:
"Are you as fast as me?"

"I do not know."

Zangao shook his head.

He had no way of judging since the two had never actually fought, but he knew how terrifying Clo was.

He was a ruthless man who planned everything. In every battle with the enemy, the Black Cat Pirates had the three major advantages of time, place, and people.

Logically speaking, under such circumstances, the casualties in the Black Cat Pirates should be kept to a very small number.

But the fact is just the opposite. The Black Cat Pirates pay a heavy price in every battle.

The vast majority of them did not die at the hands of the enemy, but fell under Clo's indiscriminate attack ability!
"I admit that you are strong, but Clo is also a real monster. His bounty and combat power don't match at all!"

"Most of the pirates and navy who disappeared in the East China Sea in recent years have become Clo's prey!" Zangao's expression was solemn.

It can be said that there is no psychological burden at all when it comes to betraying the captain, or it can be said that bowing to the strong is the instinct of most pirates.

"is it?"

Gawain did not comment, turned his head to look at the pirate who was still struggling in the sea water, and said:

"Try to survive first, at least until the end of this battle. I'll go test Clo's quality..."

Say it.

Gawain stepped heavily, and the terrifying force directly pushed the wreckage of the pirate ship under his feet completely into the water. He used this force to shoot towards the warship a hundred meters away.

A pirate handed Zangao a lifebuoy, then turned to look at Gawain and asked in confusion:

"Boss, are we just going to betray the captain like this?"

"sell?"

Zangao held the lifebuoy, a hint of ridicule on his face:
"If Gawain wins, we will just be paying our tribute. If Cloe wins, who among those present will take the initiative to tell others about this?"

"You can't lose no matter what you choose."

"Besides, you don't really think that Clo will trust us, do you? How could he not know about the little tricks the cat brothers are doing in private?"

"He just doesn't care. Everyone in the pirate group is just a tool to him."

"I just realized that when Cloe completes his plan, our existence will become his only flaw."

"Given Clo's personality, what will be our fate?"

The pirate was stunned, and then he felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart, even more chilling than the icy sea water.

……

……

……

Bang!
Gawain landed steadily on the warship without even getting his clothes wet, while the pirate ship that was tracking them in the distance had been swallowed by the sea.

The exaggerated battle record made everyone on the warship almost regard him as a god. While showing awe on their faces, they also felt a sense of confidence in their hearts.

As long as the captain doesn't fall, the Gawain Pirates will not fail!
Gawain took in everyone's excited gazes, but he didn't pay attention to them. He turned to look at the first mate beside him:

"How's the fighting going here?"

The first mate said respectfully:
"Our people haven't had time to familiarize themselves with the cannons on the warships. Their accuracy is not good enough. The Black Cat Pirates are not well-equipped and can't damage the warships."

"If we really want to decide the outcome, we have to rely on boarding!"

"They're coming!"

Sudden.

The lookout uttered a cry of surprise.

Gawain looked up.

I saw the flag of the Black Cat Pirates approaching rapidly. It seemed that they were also paying the same attention as the first mate.

With Gawain's eyesight, he could already see the thin man with a stern face and a gloomy look standing on the deck opposite him.

The man wore strangely shaped claw knives on his ten fingers. The sharp blades made him have to use his palms to push his glasses away.

But this awkward movement made the aura emanating from his body even more ferocious.

"Not Monka?"

far away.

Clo, who was standing on the deck, was slightly stunned and his face suddenly darkened.

It was not Monka, but he was on Monka's ship, and the other party's attire was obviously not that of a navy. There was no need to say more about what had happened.

"No wonder the move you just made didn't seem like Monka's method."

"never mind."

"The scenario where the pirates fight and both sides suffer losses, and Baiji Kuro is seriously injured and killed, although it is not as safe as being arrested by the navy, it is still acceptable."
