"Big Sister?" Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the one-eyed pirate.
"The boss is truly the boss! She's the pirate we're most proud of!" Speaking of the boss, the one-eyed pirate stood up proudly, crossed his arms, and laughed, "Her name is Francis Drake!"
"How about that, scared now? Hahahaha!!!"
Hijikata Toshizo pointed at the one-eyed pirate with a blank expression: "Is this guy an idiot?"
“He’s an idiot.” Lawrence nodded without hesitation.
"So why are you suddenly acting all high and mighty...?" Roman, who was in Chaldea, was also at a loss.
"Maybe he's desperately trying to cultivate a pirate image...probably." Mashu sighed, feeling a bit exhausted.
What's going on with the people in this singularity?
"Sorry, I'm an idiot..." The one-eyed pirate slumped down.
Fujimaru Ritsuka shrugged: "Hey, take us to see your boss."
The one-eyed pirate raised his head, a hint of surprise in his eyes, which quickly turned to delight: "Ah! Good! Good, good! Come with me!"
As he spoke, he quickly got up and led the group of people to their destination.
"Agreeing so readily... I bet he's got some good ideas up his sleeve." Hijikata Toshizo sneered.
“I feel the same way…” Mashu felt even more exhausted.
"Fou!" Fou leaned on Mashu's shoulder, comforting her.
"Anyway, let's follow them. That big sister should be a pretty key figure, but this name... doesn't it sound familiar?" Fujimaru Ritsuka walked ahead, thinking as she went.
"Ah, I was so busy talking that I didn't realize Master said that..." Mash suddenly remembered something.
Lawrence sighed. These people...
"Francis Drake, a famous figure born forty years after my death, was a renowned privateer captain, as well as a renowned navigator and explorer. He defeated the invincible Spanish Armada, then known as the 'Empire on which the sun never sets,' at sea, thus halting Spain's expansion and paving the way for England's expansion. He was thus known as the 'Pioneer Who Shot Down the Sun.'"
She talked as she walked, her voice only audible to a few people around her.
"Ah, Lawrence knows, that saves me the trouble of explaining." Roman chuckled twice.
“However, the pirate’s leader is…” Mashu had a bad feeling.
"...No way." Fujimaru Ritsuka also sensed something was wrong.
"...Drake, is she also a woman?" Lawrence felt utterly exhausted.
"So... what exactly went wrong with the historical records...?" Roman sat at the control panel, holding his head in his hands.
The one-eyed pirate walking in front of them spoke up: "If we go this way, we'll reach the boss's camp."
He loudly plotted, "Hehehe, these guys are definitely doomed. As long as the boss takes action, these small fry will definitely..."
"...Did he forget his brain on the ship?"
"Perhaps, but it's better to be prepared for a sneak attack." Lawrence always maintained such a dignified demeanor, with gems gathering around him, guarding against sneak attacks from several key positions.
"Fufu..." Fufu was starting to feel tired too.
"Oh, this little animal looks so cute, it must taste delicious!" the one-eyed pirate said with a grin.
"Fu!?" Fufu was extremely frightened.
"Lead the way obediently, or you're dead if you dare eat Fufu!" Fujimaru Ritsuka hugged Fufu tightly and glared fiercely at the one-eyed pirate.
"Yes! I'm sorry!"
“Let’s continue our previous topic,” Lawrence said while using the gem to keep watch. “Drake, who is in this singularity, is probably a living person, that is, a real human being living in this era.”
"Looks like we'll have a chance to meet the devil of the sea," Roman said with a sigh, taking a sip of his coffee. "Even though he's a privateer captain, he can't hide his identity as a pirate."
"No matter what, we must be prepared before we meet, Mashu, Miss Lawrence, I'm counting on you." Fujimaru Ritsuka said to the two of them, looking at the forest they were about to leave.

Chapter 633 Heroes who live in the present, heroes who are already dead
“To be honest… based on all the pirates we’ve encountered so far, that Francis Drake is very likely the same kind of person… although she should be a woman, my opinion remains unchanged,” Lawrence said cautiously and warily.
“However, from another perspective, if we could get the help of Captain Drake from this era, perhaps the strategy for conquering this singularity would be much more effective.” Mash looked at Lawrence with a smile.
"Yes, let's play it by ear." Ritsuka nodded. "We're almost there."
As the one-eyed pirate approached the edge of the woods, he rushed out, shouting, "Hey—Boss! Boss!"
"I've brought an enemy...guest!"
"They said they want to have a chat with you, the boss!"
At that moment, a somewhat impatient female voice came from inside the woods.
"Huh? Who is it? Why do they always pick the moment when I'm happily drinking... Ugh?" Drake was lying on a wooden bench in an extremely ungraceful position, drinking, when he suddenly heard his one-eyed first mate, Bombey, panicking.
Just as he was about to impatiently give the so-called visiting guest a piece of his mind, he suddenly saw something shiny.
“Hey…that’s…a gem?” Drake’s gaze fell on the gem floating around the group of people.
"Oh! It's a gem! It's a treasure!" The pirates in this open-air area also saw the gem and became excited.
“Hey idiots! Quiet down!” Drake yelled.
At her command, the pirates immediately fell silent.
"As expected, it's a woman..." Mashu whispered in Ritsuka's ear.
"Even though I was mentally prepared, I was still quite surprised." Ritsuka sighed.
Suddenly, Hijikata Toshizo stepped out from the group.
"Huh? Mr. Hijikata?"
"Hey you guys, are you businessmen? Or military officers?" Drake shouted, glancing sideways at Hijikata Toshizo who was getting closer and closer. "Are you the one in charge?"
Hijikata Toshizo's eyes remained fixed on Drake: "Hey, I'm telling you, you're really... um—"
"I'm so sorry!" Mashu covered Hijikata Toshizo's mouth and bowed to Drake. "Mr. Hijikata, please calm down. This is not the time for you to do this kind of thing!"
Drake was completely bewildered: "...What's going on with you guys? Do you think I'm an idiot?"
“I’m sorry, but I’ll talk to you instead.” Fujimaru Ritsuka sighed as Mash pulled Hijikata Toshizo aside and stood opposite Drake.
"Hmm? So who are you?" Drake's attitude was somewhat frivolous and arrogant as he crossed his legs and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
“We are not merchants or officers, but from an organization called Chaldea.” Lawrence conjured a stool using gem magic, and Fujimaru Ritsuka sat down, looking directly at Drake. “Are you Francis Drake?”
Drake paused for a moment when he saw Lawrence crafting the jeweled chair, then realized, "Chaldea? What does the star mapmaker want with me? But this chair of yours..."
"Please understand this as a simple illusion; it will disappear in a short while," Lawrence said expressionlessly.
Having spent her life in high society, she could endure poverty and pain, but she genuinely despised those who were considered low-class.
It does not refer to being low-class in terms of economics or profession, but rather to being low-class in terms of mentality or pursuit.
And it is clear that pirates belong to the category of low-class people in Lawrence's understanding.
"Huh? This drunken woman actually knows the origin of Chaldea?" Roman's voice came out from the small light screen in surprise.
"Hmm? This voice..." Drake picked at his ear, looking impatient. "It sounds so superficial... and weak, pessimistic, and spineless..."
Ritsuka's eyelids twitched: "I can tell your intuition is excellent!"
"Oh? You think so too! Of course! If it weren't for my superb intuition, I might have died at sea long ago!" Drake immediately became smug upon hearing Ritsuka's praise.
Meanwhile, Roman had already found a corner in Chaldea and started drawing circles.
"Let's get back to the point." Drake's eyes turned serious. "What exactly do you Chaldea people want with me?"
Ritsuka composed herself and resumed her serious expression: "Let's be honest for now, we're here to correct the anomalies of this era."
“…” Drake’s previously somewhat irritated expression turned serious. “Oh?”
"It seems Captain Drake has already noticed." Mash and Hijikata Toshizo have also returned and are standing behind Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Fujimaru Ritsuka narrowed her eyes slightly: "The anomalies of this world, this era..."
......
"Hey, senior, so... that really is Poseidon!" The blond youth stared at the giant sitting cross-legged on the ground in front of him.
The giant was over three meters tall, and even when sitting on the ground, he was about the same height as the blond man. He had short, light blue hair and a very sunny expression.
His name is—
Oceanos.
"Yes, although it's more than a hundred times weaker, its essence is undoubtedly Poseidon." Oshin nodded, his smile wide with satisfaction. "That was awesome! To be able to kill that old bastard again!"
"As expected of the great senior Ou Shen! He killed a god and can still sit here chatting and laughing with me!" the blond youth said excitedly.
“Hey Jason, to be honest, I had a question for you when you summoned me a few days ago.” Ocean leaned against the railing at the edge of the deck, pointing to Jason’s waist, “That’s…”
It was a fiery red scabbard, with a golden hilt inserted into it.
“Ah! This!” Jason untied the rope and took the sword down. “This sword was taken from you when I freed you from the deep sea, but now it has become my Noble Phantasm.”
“Is that so?” Oshin sighed, then burst into laughter.
He patted Jason on the shoulder: "Speaking of which, I really have to thank you, kid! You actually managed to dive into the deep sea and break the chains that Zeus bound me with, freeing me from the ocean floor."
"No, this, this is what I should do!" Jason's face turned red with excitement as he responded loudly to Ocean.
"Hey, come on, let's have a drink!"
"Yes! Thank you very much, senior!"
At the other end of the deck, a purple-haired girl glanced resentfully at the two people drinking there and sighed heavily.

Chapter 634 Defeating Drake
“This sea area is vast and beautiful, but it is not the sea you lived in at all.” Fujimaru Ritsuka said with a serious expression. “This is abnormal, and we have come here across time to solve this problem.”
Drake remained silent.
