Endless Ocean: Escape Starting from a Canoe

Chapter 230 "Today, the underworld must sink!"

"Captain, the Awakened One has awakened."

……

"May I have your name."

"Shen Tu Kou".

Shen Tu Kou had calmed down from his grief and knew that the crew of this ship had saved him. He was no longer as agitated as before, constantly calling out "Jiaming" in his unconscious state.

"From Yu the Great?"

Shen Tu Kou did not answer.

Shi Ming paused.

"I can give you a small, ordinary boat. With your abilities, you should be able to use it to return to your destination."

"But not long ago, the Renhuang and Heishi, along with their other drifting ships, blockaded this area and indiscriminately attacked all the drifting and wild boats that survived the tsunami. They must be looking for you."

"It's very difficult to avoid their detection."

Shen Tu Kou clenched his fist involuntarily.

His grandfather was killed by pirates more than 20 years ago while on a mission, and that's why his father gave him this name.

Shen Tu Kou!
He could die on the ship like Jiaming, but he had to personally deliver this intelligence.

But what can we do right now?
The ship that saved him from his drifting life was at most a Silver-class vessel.

The young man in front of me didn't look very old, only in his early twenties, even younger than me. He was probably also worried about how to get through the encirclement... If I were in my prime, I could fight back, but now I've been shipwrecked and have been at sea for so long that my condition is terrible and I'm only a fraction of my former strength.

And on the Emperor Ren, there are such powerful S-class Awakened Ones.

He braced himself, considering whether to take a desperate gamble.

Shen Tu Kou understood perfectly well that the Renhuang was targeting him because he had obtained the intelligence.

If I were to walk right into their trap, diverting the attention of the Emperor Naren, sacrificing the pawn to save the king, and entrusting the intelligence to this young man before me, there might still be a sliver of hope. The encryption of this intelligence-stealing device is excellent; even if others have malicious intentions, they will not be able to read its contents, so there is no need to worry about leaks.

But the endless ocean is a world driven by profit.

He has nothing now, so how can he entrust someone else with his affairs?
We have to give it a try.

He opened his mouth,
Before he could even speak, a crew member walked in from outside the door.

"Captain, the charging has reached its limit."

"very good."

The kinetic energy accumulated from 100 Pure Crystals obtained from bounties from the Black Society and the Lighthouse is enough to allow the Great Fortune's "Breaking Momentum" ability to overturn drifting ships of the same level!
Shi Ming stood up from his seat and walked towards the deck.

Shen Tu Kou's request was forcibly terminated. Helpless, he stood up and limped toward the deck.

Before he even stepped out of the cabin, he was shocked.

At the edge of the horizon, three massive admiral-class drifting ships were anchored 10 nautical miles away on the sea. One was the Emperor, one was the Black Society, and the other had come from afar. Judging by its appearance, it was clear that it was the Michael under the command of the Lighthouse!
Is this... a den of thieves?

Shen Tu Kou suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, even more alarmed than when he sensed the S-class Awakened outside in the intelligence room of the Renhuang.

Who exactly is this young man?!
Why was he able to evade the detection of three admiral-class drifting ships at such close range with such confidence?

During the blockade, the patrol capabilities of the Renhuang and Heisha were not to be underestimated. They also had two golden ships, the "Decapitation Sword" and the "Takamagahara," as well as dozens of ordinary drifting ships, enough to thoroughly patrol the waters around Mount Fujio.

Is he from the country of Wo?
No! The crew members on his ship all look like Chinese, speaking fluent Chinese, and their eyes show complete disdain for the Chinese. They don't seem like Chinese at all! Without a doubt, they are not from the other side's faction!

The drifting boat beneath our feet is moving faster and faster.

Shen Tu Kou was almost unable to stand.

The aftereffects of soaking in seawater for too long rushed to my head; a wave of dizziness almost made me collapse onto the deck.

Shi Ming glanced back.

"Stand up."

Shen Tu Kou felt increasingly dizzy, as if he were on a rocket. It seemed he had indeed been in the seawater for too long and was even hallucinating. He forced himself to stand up again, and when he looked up, he was shocked to find that the speed of the drifting ship had reached an unimaginable level in just a few breaths.

Moreover, it's only five nautical miles away from colliding with the Black Society ship that's not far away!
This……

Does this guy know he can't escape and want to go down in flames?!

……

……

……

A lavish welcome banquet is being held aboard the Emperor Ren.

Emperor Niohuru personally attended the ceremony. The legendary vintage red wine and champagne were treasures from the land era. On the silver plate was real "whirlpool beef" raised by the ship's aquaculture department, with snowflake-like fine marbling that was very tempting.

This is not synthetic food, but real, premium beef.

"Thomson, have a taste of our vortex cow!"

"Brilliant!"

Thomson gave a thumbs up.

"Your Majesty the Emperor."

Thomson addressed the Emperor of Woguo as "Your Majesty" or "Your Majesty," but the Emperor did not mind. On the contrary, he was quite humble, as if he were addressing a very friendly old friend.

"The Indian Ocean needs a real leader."

"There's a great secret hidden beneath Mount Pukyong, and the lighthouse can help uncover it—it's a win-win situation. As the saying goes, you provide the resources, we provide the effort! Cooperation is a win-win!"

"But this is only the first step."

Thomson, who hadn't drunk alcohol in a long time, was a little tipsy.

"That great ship... guards the great stone tablet and the only land on the endless ocean, yet it is not good at research. In the past thirty years, it has only translated two lists. I don't know if it is because it lacks ability or because it is too proud to share its research results."

“He can be replaced.” Thomson deliberately used an ancient Chinese phrase.

Emperor Ren smiled. "That's natural."

"Come on, cheers!"

A crisp, clear sound, like notes in a symphony, accompanied by the aroma of wine and meat, so captivating that one loses sight of reality.

……

Shi Ming, who had already applied the Tear of the Earthsea to his face to disguise himself, stood alone at the bow of the Grand Transport Ship.

The wind howled past, blowing his captain's cloak.

Hunting sound.

The shielding device of the Grand Canal was superior to that of the three ships. It activated the characteristics "Crown Prince" and "Broken Force" simultaneously and closed in on the enemy in an instant. However, the radar devices of the three drifting ships did not detect it at all. The banquet hall was still filled with laughter and joy.

However, some inspectors detected the wave fluctuations with the naked eye.

The Dayun has no traceless mode. The violent waves caused by its speed across the sea can still be barely seen with the naked eye.

A loud alarm blared instantly, and most of the people sitting in the banquet hall sobered up.

This is an alarm signaling an enemy attack.

Thomson instantly became alert.

Emperor Renhuang waved his hand and said with a smile, "In the waters off Mount Fuji, who would dare to attack the Emperor Renhuang? Mr. Thomson, please continue drinking. This champagne is good, but it should be accompanied by sake. Sake has a very light aroma, but it leaves a lasting impression and does not mask the deliciousness of the whirlpool beef."

Thomson sat back down in his seat.

Also.

With three admiral-class ships in command, who would dare to disobey?
They're nothing more than some desperate clowns fighting for their lives here. Someone will take care of them. Not to mention, there are two S-class Awakened Ones they brought with them to oversee things. Even Kunwu of Yu the Great wouldn't dare to attack at this time.

however--

boom! ! !
Before he could even settle in, a loud bang made both Emperor Renzong and Thomson's ears ring.

Immediately, a tremendous surge of waves caused the Emperor Renhuang to become violently unstable. The 600-meter-long giant ship drifted precariously on the sea, and the red wine, champagne, and sake on the banquet table tumbled and crashed to the ground, creating a chaotic mess of red, yellow, and white wines.

"This……"

Emperor Ren was taken aback.

Guards rushed into the banquet hall.

"Your Majesty! The Black Society has capsized!"

"what?"

……

……

……

The Black Society was not a survival ship.

The Kingdom of Wo was the first to suffer in the great flood. Its population was sparse, and most of the ships that survived were the lowest-grade bronze and silver ships.

Only the powerful and noble could board the gold ships and general-class ships.

Gold-class drifting ships like [Takamagahara] are all owned by aristocratic families and nobles, while the [Executioner's Blade] is personally overseen by a prince.

The Black Society is a shadow under the sun, a giant mouth in a whirlpool, notorious in the Yinping Sea. For thirty years, it has quickly built up fleets by plundering. The predecessor of Shi Ming's current Dayun was the drifting ship that Chunyi's uncle, Da Huangye, plundered.

The Endless Sea Map was a rare item they obtained after plundering a wild ship.

Whether in his past life or this one, Shi Ming felt only disgust for it.

boom--

Amidst the violent tremors, the Great Fortune, carrying the power of a meteor, slammed into the Black Society's vortex sun emblem. With overwhelming force, it forcefully blasted a gap in the ship, which was several times its size!
It then surged forward, the powerful force causing the admiral-class drifting ship to capsize violently, creating towering waves.

No one could react in time.

Even if they realized what was happening, they were powerless to stop the great fortune that was in a state of disruption.

Shen Tu Kou gripped the mast of the ship tightly, his eyes and heart filled with shock at the subversion of his simple values.

A silver ship capsized a notorious gang?
Could it be that I am already dead?
Was this a delusion before death?

This……

He slapped his right cheek hard and found it extremely painful.

……

Just as the Black Society struck it rich, Shi Ming sensed two exceptionally powerful auras rising from the Renhuang and Michael ships.

This is the strong lighthouse that guards it.

Code name: Abyss.

Code name, colorless.

Originally, the Lighthouse dispatched three S-class Awakened to participate in this incident. They attached great importance to this matter and mobilized their hidden forces. The three S-class Awakened were already half of their current strength. However, the Awakened codenamed "Virus" is now lying in Shi Ming's warehouse.

Shi Ming sensed the suddenly appearing powerful aura but ignored it.

Instead, he stood firmly on the deck and burst out from the broken fragments of the Black Society.

Then, Da Yun continued his attack, using the remaining power of his "Broken Force" ability to crash into Michael, who was not far away.

Admittedly, although they coveted the Black Society's navigation core, finding the Star of Navigation under the noses of three general-class drifting ships, two S-class awakened individuals, and many other powerful figures, and then escaping unscathed with their great fortune, would be extremely difficult.

But today,
You all need to hit the jackpot.
