So I'm a sheep.

Sasha dodged aside, and the sailors behind her were caught off guard and sprayed directly.

Without even a scream, the sailors melted in the venom.

Caught off guard by the sailors' miserable state, the dragon slayer was enraged.

She stomped her foot, and the force traveled through the ground to the basilisk, sending it flying into the air.

Sasha suddenly uprooted a tree and hurled it forcefully at the basilisk in mid-air.

However......

I dodged it nimbly; this thing can actually fly?!

Before they could even consider whether the monster itself possessed the ability to fly or if the Golden Fleece was at work, Sasha told the sailors to scatter and make their escape.

It's not that there's no way to deal with it; just show your dragon scales, endure a few mouthfuls of venom, and then blast it to smithereens with your light cannon.

The problem is that doing this is too reckless, especially since the Golden Fleece is still wrapped up by the Basilisk.

There should be a more ingenious and easier way.

While dodging the basilisk's double-speed venom spit, Sasha pondered a solution.

After running around the island fifty or sixty times, the basilisk, its patience exhausted, angrily gave up on its prey.

...............................................

I think we should use strategy.

Back on the Black Pearl, this was the first thing Sasha said.

"Oh?"

Jack stroked his chin and asked, "How exactly do you plan to outsmart them?"

"When I encountered the basilisk, it was eating fruit from a tree."

Sasha suggested, "Let's pick enough fruit and soak it in rum."

"What if I take it for a walk a few more times, and when it's tired and thirsty, it comes home to find a pile of fruit on the ground?"

The method is simple: feed the basilisk fruit soaked in rum to make it drunk.

Based on today's encounter, Sasha felt that the basilisk was not intelligent, and that simple methods might be surprisingly effective.

"You can give it a try."

"Anyway, it doesn't take much effort."

"It's too much trouble because it's wrapped in the Golden Fleece, otherwise I could have just shot it dead!"

Without further ado, Jack mobilized the sailors to pick fresh fruit from the trees on the shore, and in no time they had picked several large baskets.

After soaking the fruit in a wine barrel for two days to 'infuse flavor', Sasha decisively went to tease the snake monster early on the third day.

He uprooted a tree and smashed it directly into the basilisk's lair. As expected, the monster charged out in a rage.

Once again, it led the basilisk around the island in circles. This time, however, it wasn't as patient as the first time. Before it had even completed ten laps, it flew dejectedly back to its lair.

'I hope you don't have a high alcohol tolerance.'

They ran to the Black Pearl to meet up with everyone and waited patiently until noon. Sasha and Maureen then traveled together.

"..."

He was drunk, extremely drunk.

Sasha tiptoed over to the basilisk and tugged at its golden wool.

I couldn't get it off in one go, but when I pulled again, I used a bit more force and got it!

Just as Maureen was about to finish off the serpent monster by drawing out the pristine lake water, she gestured to Sasha, hoping she would leave immediately.

After a moment's hesitation, Sasha shook her head.

If no sailors had died from the basilisk's venom, it wouldn't have mattered if it had been let go.

But the feud has already been formed, how can we let it go so easily?

The divine weapon was drawn, and the basilisk's two heads fell off simultaneously.

........................................

"Sigh, we already stole its treasure, why go to such lengths to destroy it?" Maureen said reproachfully.

Three sailors died.

Sasha picked up the two snake heads: "I need to give Captain Jack an explanation."

Maureen paused, realizing that the person she knew best on the Black Pearl was Sasha, followed by Captain Jack Sparrow.

I could name the first mate, second mate, and third mate, but I only vaguely recognized the rest of the sailors.

Despite having known each other for a long time, Maureen, born into a noble family, treated the sailors with a very 'aristocratic' attitude.

Three perfectly healthy people have vanished, without Captain Jack Sparrow saying anything...

Several days passed and she still didn't notice!

"..."

Maureen awkwardly brushed her long hair aside, a blush rising to her cheeks.

"It's so heavy, can you help me out?"

Sasha tossed a snake head to Maureen, easing the awkward atmosphere between them.

"Feel sorry"

"It's alright, I've avenged them anyway."

Volume 1: Chapter 701 Her Highness

"Two heads, one offered to His Majesty the King, and the other hung directly on the bow of the ship!"

Jack beamed: "From now on, I can point to it and say to all the passengers boarding the ship: Look, this is the basilisk that guards the Golden Fleece, and you are now aboard the Black Pearl!"

"My lord, my friend, could you please satisfy my little vanity?"

Faced with Captain Jack's pleading gaze, Sasha said that leaving a snake's head on the Black Pearl was no problem at all, as a substitute for a ticket.

"Hey, the Earl has agreed."

"What are we waiting for? A banquet! We need a banquet!"

Having successfully obtained the Golden Fleece, the sacrifices were entirely acceptable, and the crucial point was that the time spent was not too long.

The return voyage will surely be smooth sailing, after all, the sea fairy has guaranteed it.

That's enough, that's enough!

No one could ask for more; this was already a pretty good, even better-than-expected, outcome.

Rum was brought out barrel after barrel, along with grilled fish, island-picked fruits, vegetable soup, smoked meat...

The sailors did their best to prepare a feast, and everyone was in high spirits.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

Jack raised his glass: "Let's raise a toast to these three unlucky guys, Willie, Hank, and Gagari."

Sasa and Maureen solemnly downed their drinks, while the sailors continued to laugh and joke as usual.

"Oh, was it their good fortune or their misfortune that they didn't perish at sea?"

"Cheers to those three bastards!"

"Haha, cheers!"

Maureen seemed a little lost; she thought that mourning a deceased friend should be done in a more solemn atmosphere.

"This is how we live."

Jack raised a glass to Maureen: "No need to be sad, just laugh it off."

"Difficult to understand"

Maureen shook her head, finished her rum, and went to eat alone.

“Your Excellency, although you are also a nobleman, you should understand, right?” Jack toasted Sasha with a grin.

Sasha smiled but didn't answer; she simply clinked glasses with the captain.

"cheers!"

..........................................

As Sasha disembarked, she saw that unusual light again.

I was completely lost the last few times, but now I have a vague sense of understanding.

"It's fate."

"What? What?" Jack leaned closer curiously.

"nothing"

Sasha changed the subject: "Captain, are you coming back to the capital with us?"

"That's right, I'm going to be conferred the title too!"

Jack straightened his clothes and said in a pretentious manner, "From now on, I'm a noble lord, and those little cuties will definitely adore me."

Sasha couldn't help but laugh. Although Captain Jack Sparrow was a womanizer, it was strange that she couldn't feel any disgust towards him.

Is it his personal charm, or is it just that he's too honest about this?

They quickly contacted the king's envoy who was stationed at the dock, and the three of them, carrying the Golden Fleece and the snake head, embarked on their journey to the capital.

Compared to the grand welcoming ceremony when he returned from slaying the dragon last time, this time only two royal attendants greeted the guests.

Sasha and Maureen remained calm, but Jack, with his naturally impulsive nature, couldn't help but say a few sarcastic remarks.

Fortunately, the two royal attendants did not hold a grudge against Jack, which may also be because they had received instructions from King Carlos VII beforehand.

"I'm sorry to have troubled you!"
