The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

She had wanted to run away with Bai Ye because she was worried about him, but now that she saw how powerful Bai Ye was, killing undead spirits as easily as crushing ants, she had nothing to worry about!

Angelica stepped forward with her gun and slashed at the undead rampaging on the merchant ship.

She cleaved the head of a skeleton pirate off its head.

"Don't panic, everyone! Listen to my instructions!" Angelica shouted as she fought the enemy. "These skeletons aren't scary. They're just missing a layer of skin compared to normal humans. Although they look terrifying, they're not truly immortal. Just tie them up with ropes, fishing nets, chains, and the like, and they'll be no threat at all."

"And if you continue to be afraid, scatter and flee, and dare not confront us head-on, then you will all be killed sooner or later!"

Angelica didn't want to argue with Bai Ye, but the fact that their positions had suddenly reversed made her quite upset.

She used to be the big sister protecting Bai Ye, but now she's become the little girl Bai Ye teases.

The difference is too great.

If she didn't want to vent her anger on Bai Ye, then she could only vent it on these skeleton pirates who had exposed her actual relationship with Bai Ye.

Just as Bai Ye said, if Bai Ye had taken her stepping in to save him as an opportunity to demonstrate her strength, how embarrassed and angry would she have been?

Angelica, who was also the first mate on the Queen Anne's Revenge, was skilled in management and knew how to get people to follow orders. Before long, she quickly got the situation under control.

The manipulation Bai Ye had just performed in front of her made Angelica realize that these skeletons were not truly immortal; they were simply bodies that could be reattached. Finding a way to control them was originally a very simple matter, but many people gave up thinking about it because of fear.

The guards and sailors on the merchant ship, hearing Angelica's strong and clear voice, did as she said, quickly finding ropes and fishing nets nearby to tie up the skeleton pirates.

"Fishing net, where's the fishing net? I split this guy's head open, his body is out of control, just spinning around aimlessly. Get the fishing net and we can catch him."

"Is there any more rope? I cut off the arm that was holding the big knife. I've already pinned him down. Use the rope to tie him up."

Under Angelica's command, the people on the merchant ship quickly regained their footing and launched a counterattack against the pirate skeletons.

"This little chili pepper is quite interesting."

Bai Ye crossed his arms and watched Angelica's performance, then laughed.

The merchant ship had a large crew. After overcoming their fear of the skeleton pirates and finding a way to counter them, the situation on the battlefield suddenly turned around, and many skeleton pirates were captured.

"Captain, these guys are pretty tough. Maybe... we should retreat?"

Two pirates, one fat and one thin, carrying large swords, ran tremblingly to Barbossa's side.

They had seen too many of their comrades captured, and even if they were immortal, they wouldn't die at the hands of these people. However... immortality might allow them to remain in the world in a more painful way.

Just as they had punished their fellow undead skeletons, they bound them to bronze pillars and sank them to the bottom of the sea. In this way, even if they were immortal, they would be left to endure endless loneliness and pain in the depths of the sea forever. This was a far more severe form of punishment than killing a person.

A few days in a dark room is enough to make most normal people unable to bear it, let alone a dark room that is permanent and has no end in sight.

"Shut up!"

Barbossa was observing the battlefield when he heard this. He turned around and glared fiercely at the fat and thin pirates.

The situation was already unfavorable for them, and these bastards still had to say things that would damage morale.

Nearly half of them are now caught in fishing nets and ropes. If they retreat now, their pirate crew will probably be on the verge of disbanding—of course, the merchant ships will also suffer significant casualties.

"The reason why the guards and sailors on this merchant ship have suddenly become so powerful is purely because that woman is in charge. All of you, attack and kill her. These mediocre men on the ship are no match for us at all."

Barbossa pointed at Angelica and said decisively.

The fat and thin pirates looked over and saw Angelica's agile and heroic figure.

"hey-hey……"

The two exchanged a glance and then let out a wicked laugh. Angelica's appearance was definitely one of the most beautiful women in the Caribbean, perhaps even the most beautiful flower. After all, it's unlikely that a woman who is truly stunning would go out to sea to become a pirate.

So Barbossa sent the fat and thin pirates to kill Angelica, and the two of them undoubtedly thought that they might be able to take advantage of the situation.

Even though there's no tactile sensation, can't we at least enjoy it on a psychological level?

"Kill them!"

The two joined forces, wielding their broadswords, and charged towards Angelica.

Barbossa followed behind the fat and thin pirates, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

The merchant ship was too chaotic just now, so he didn't see clearly, but he still saw a few sudden flashes of lightning, which made Barbossa a little wary.

As one of the nine pirate kings, Barbossa had traveled all over the world for many years and knew that there were many wizards with magical powers in the Caribbean. Who knew if the people on this ship were one of them?

If there really is a wizard, based on Barbossa's experience, it's most likely related to that brat who suddenly appeared. So, at this point, let the fat and thin pirates go up and take the lead to see what's going on.

If a wizard suddenly appears while they're attacking that brat, the one who gets killed will be the fat or thin pirate, not him.

Barbosa has been navigating the world for so many years, thriving without ever making a mistake, all thanks to three things: caution, caution, and damn caution!

"Hey hey hey..."

The fat pirate, carrying a large sword, leaned against Angelica with a lewd expression.

"Little bitch, just surrender obediently, otherwise it would be such a waste if your pretty face got a few scars."

"Hehe, we've just been short one person to wash underwear on our ship. Underwear for hundreds of people, that's a huge undertaking. I think you'd be perfect for it!"

The skinny pirate also chuckled lewdly.

Angelica stared coldly at the two of them, looking at them as if they were idiots.

The fat and thin pirates were busy robbing and looting the ship, so they didn't see Angelica's impressive display of power earlier. Therefore, they mistakenly thought that a mere woman couldn't possibly be that powerful.

If those two brilliant strategists from the Black Pearl were to attack her simultaneously, wouldn't it be a piece of cake?

"Damn it, that bitch's eyes look like she's looking down on us!"

The fat pirate's face darkened:

"It seems she'll never know her place if we don't teach her a lesson!"

Enraged, the fat pirate brandished his broadsword, the blade gleaming coldly in the moonlight, and swung it towards Angelica's head.

They are all seasoned thieves, ruthless and cunning in their actions, and will never hesitate or drag things out.

When it comes to joking, it's joking, but when it comes to killing, it's real killing.

Angelica reached out and blocked the fat pirate's broadsword with her sword, then kicked out, hitting the fat pirate squarely in the chest and abdomen, sending him rolling away like a gourd.

"You dare hit my brother?"

The skinny pirate immediately flew into a rage:

I'll kill you!

So, the skinny pirate also joined in.

Angelica's lips curled into a disdainful smile.

He turned the longsword in his hand upside down.

Just as the skinny pirate approached, a light as cold as a star flashed by.

Before the skinny pirate could figure out what was going on, he suddenly felt dizzy and his head was spinning.

When everything finally stopped, he clearly saw himself collapsing to the ground, his body, no longer under the control of his mind, wildly swinging his knife in place.

"I've been... beheaded?"

The skinny pirate fell into deep thought. What exactly had happened in that instant?

However, under Angelica's command, the men, who were already familiar with dealing with the skeleton pirates, immediately grabbed the fishing net and covered the skinny pirate's half-body, which was wildly swinging its knife in place, and then tied it up.

"Useless, they're truly two pieces of trash!"

Barbosa was so angry he jumped up and down.

He chose the fat and thin pirates to join forces to attack Angelica because these two pirates were already quite capable minor leaders on the Black Pearl. However, he did not expect that the two of them would be defeated so easily when they joined forces to deal with Angelica.

How can he test the waters now?

What kind of probing is this?!

Barbossa surveyed the situation; most of his men had been routed and their morale was shattered.

The saying goes, "When an army is defeated, it collapses like a mountain."

If they were to lose this battle, it wouldn't matter if all their years of hard work were to vanish in an instant. The real issue was that the curse on the Aztec gold coins still hadn't been lifted.

Without these undead spirits following him across the seas, how could he possibly have the confidence to retrieve all the Aztec coins and break the curse on his body?

Barbossa has amassed a fortune on the high seas over the years, enough to last several lifetimes. But without breaking the curse and losing all sense of touch, it's all for naught. He can't eat his favorite green apples or sleep with the beautiful women on the sea. What's the point of living like that?

"I'll do it myself!"

Barbossa was cautious as he was, but when it came to taking a gamble, he was absolutely not afraid to risk his life. Pirates on the high seas were always risking their lives, and they deeply understood that only those who were not afraid to die deserved to live as pirates.

Now, given this unfavorable situation, it's clear that it's time for him to use himself as a bargaining chip. They used to run rampant with their skeletal bodies and immortality, but when they encountered truly intelligent people, their methods failed them, and they began to panic. Their morale plummeted, and the previously balanced situation deteriorated further, creating a vicious cycle.

Barbossa was able to become the captain of the Black Pearl not only because of his cunning and shrewdness, but also because he was the best swordsman on the Black Pearl.

"I still don't believe it! I can't even handle a brat!"

Barbosa snorted coldly.

Perhaps it was the intuition of a master, but as Barbossa stopped hiding himself and prepared to have a fair fight with Angelica, Angelica immediately sensed Barbossa's presence. Their eyes met and blazed with fierce fighting spirit.

“Hector Barbossa, one of the nine pirate lords, the King of the Caspian Sea…” Angelica stared at Barbossa and said, “I’ve wanted to meet you so-called nine pirate lords for a long time, but I’ve never had the chance.”

"Little girl, you'll soon find out that you've chosen the wrong opponent!"

Barbosa said proudly.

"Take this!"

Angelica, too lazy to listen to Barbossa's nonsense, took two steps forward with her sword in hand, and the silver-white blade, like a snake's tongue, bit towards Barbossa's throat.

"How dare they cheat and ambush a 69-year-old woman like me!"

Barbossa was equally unyielding, and with his longsword in hand, he engaged Angelica in a sword duel.

Under the moonlight, their longswords seemed to transform into two dragons, moving with lightning speed and extreme ferocity.

Bai Ye sat on the mast of the capsized boat, watching the two compete with great interest while cracking sunflower seeds.

It can be said that Angelica and Barbossa's swordsmanship are at the same level.

Angelica was raised by her father, Blackbeard, and diligently learned swordsmanship and other self-defense skills, so her level was naturally quite high.

Barbossa, as a senior figure among the nine pirate lords, was certainly no pushover.

So the two fought to a standstill.
