lol: Bind Syndra at the start

It not only offends the dignity of the Pirate King, but also tramples it underfoot with actual actions.

"But you didn't fulfill your promise. My current position is entirely due to my own efforts and struggles.

"I've taken more risks than those old guys combined. I deserve the title of Pirate King."

Gangplank's words made Tam chuckle, "Pirates are indeed worse than demons.

"But sophistry cannot change the facts. If I hadn't existed, I would have…

"Over the past decade or so, at least three young people have had the opportunity to replace you. They are far more talented, more visionary, and more willing to take risks than you.

"I discovered them ahead of time and lured them onto another path. You have your own merits for where you are today, but it's all thanks to my protection."

Gangplank couldn't argue with Tam. He was used to his men carrying out his orders without question. He wanted to defeat a demon with his mouth. Perhaps his younger self could have done that...

Gangplank changed the subject, looking at Tam with a mocking look.

The latter's belly was still churning.

As an old partner, Gangplank could see that this was Tam recovering from his injuries.

Every time it was injured, it needed to eat a lot to make up for the loss, and there was no doubt that its carefully selected guards became the price to pay for making up for the loss.

"So what are you doing all the way to this remote island?

"Did you offend some untouchable being? It seems even demons can get scared sometimes.

"There's another person outside. You can swallow him too and leave here immediately.

"My original agreement didn't include the clause that I would help you if you encountered a strong enemy."

They were not in Bilgewater.

Instead, it is hidden in a remote corner of the Blue Flame Islands.

The island is not very large, and before Planck came here, there were only a few hundred natives on the entire island.

With his arrival, this island became his base camp. As for the natives...

Their scalps were originally placed on the beach and have now become one with it.

As for their remains, they had long been given to other animals on the island by the generous Captain Planck. Of course, he did not forget the fish in the sea.

"I'm not here to ask for your help, but to give you a reminder."

Tam said coldly.

"What reminder?" Planck stopped mocking.

He knew that this demon would not act without a purpose.

"Darkness has crept into Bilgewater. I don't know what happened to Ionia, but there's no doubt they unleashed darkness."

"Darkness? What is that?" Gangplank asked. "And what does this have to do with Ionia?"

"When you went to Ionia to plunder, didn't you learn more about the place?"

"If you had to choose between death and deeper understanding, which would you choose?" Planck retorted mercilessly.

"I really envy your ignorance..." Tam's eyes rolled, and then he saw deeper doubts on Gangplank's face.

The great demon sighed rarely, and now he suddenly felt a little regretful.

I shouldn't give up on choosing a new partner just for those interests.

For example, the one I swallowed four years ago seemed to be more far-sighted and knowledgeable.

"Darkness is a powerful force. It comes from the same place as me."

"So you can't defeat it? Wait... What exactly is it? A force or a thing?"

"If the devil is a rainbow of colors, then darkness is the endless abyss that ends everything. I don't know how to describe it...

"It's even more unknown why this power appeared in one, no, two humans, but it's clear that they are now in Bilgewater.

"Why do you think a force more evil, cruel, and violent than demons would appear in Bilgewater? They can't be here for sightseeing."

"What does this have to do with me? I'm in the Blue Flame Islands, not Bilgewater.

"Do you think I'd go to Bilgewater and challenge something you can't defeat? What would I want? I hope he kills all the old guys left in Bilgewater..."

Plank was candid.

He had even begun to imagine the scene where he would truly become the uncrowned king.

No one will be able to interfere with me anymore, so what will happen to Bilgewater?

If it were to be destroyed, I would be the only pirate left...

If it is still there, then I am still the king of pirates

“Even you know how to cooperate with me, do you think other pirates won’t succumb to power?

"I have come into contact with the servants of darkness, and this contact has led me to discover something."

Tam looked at Gangplank and said, "You should have heard of Miss Fortune."

“I know, some bitch came out of nowhere and said I killed her parents.

“But I killed so many people, how would I know which one was her parent?

"You mean this bitch is getting together with that darkness you mentioned?"

Planck's face darkened.

"At least in my opinion, she has become a servant of the Dark Servant."

"Why are there so many servants?"

"You should be thankful you only have to face one servant... No matter what, that woman will definitely draw power from the darkness, and you don't have much time left...

"Either kill her before she succeeds, or wait for darkness to come."

"I can't do this alone!" Planck realized Tam's plan.

It wanted to drag him down with it, but he was caught in the act.

If this darkness is really that powerful, he must strike first.

"Of course I'm willing to help you. But we need more allies..."

"Where can I find allies for you?"

"Yes... Isn't that Seagod Cult priest familiar to you? Tell her that darkness is coveting the Seagod's power!"

Chapter 345 Planck's Response

A ray of light emerged from the darkness.

The white light was slightly yellowish, and it gushed out from the depths of the darkness, first the first one, then the second and the third one.

Sindra smelled a familiar scent. It was a bit unpleasant when she first smelled it... but she got used to it after a while.

A dark light flashed by, swallowing up the hope that had finally emerged.

She climbed out of bed, the soreness in her legs making her movements seem a little slow.

Ryan's will became stronger and stronger, and the battle lasted much longer than the last time.

This made Syndra start to ponder how she could consolidate her position again.

A real ray of light shone through the gap in the curtains, interrupting Sindra's thoughts. She had developed a habit since she came out of the seal.

Cherish every sunrise in the morning and every moon at night.

But just as she reached out to open the curtains, another arm suddenly wrapped around her slender waist from behind.

The burning body temperature transmitted from the palm of her hand confused Sindra's calm thoughts. She really didn't expect that after she gave up the power of darkness, she would find herself in such a predicament.

Maybe it's okay now, but sooner or later Ryan will surpass her in strength. How will she deal with Ryan then?

Ryan didn't give Sindra time to think. He pulled Sindra over and then pressed half of his body against her fair and attractive body.

The one-month period had not yet passed, and Ryan did not dare to do anything presumptuous, but he felt that sleeping with the baby in his arms was not within the one-month prohibition.

"You should sleep during the day."

Ryan's voice, accompanied by panting, appeared in Sindra's ears.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and Sindra bit her lip and tried to push Ryan away.

But the latter reacted faster. He reached out and clasped Sindra's palm with his five fingers, then raised half his body, leaned his chin forward and kissed her bright red lips...

"Um…"

A startled yet seductive voice echoed in the room.

Ryan stood up and suddenly realized that he didn't want to sleep anymore!

Looking at the delicate body in his arms, he thought for a moment and said tentatively:

"I think…"

"No, you don't!"

There was a glint of stubbornness and a hint of unconcealable panic in the purple eyes.

Sindra learned a lot from Lion's dreams, but learning and practice are not the same thing.

Some emotions cannot be erased by increasing strength, such as shyness and nervousness...

She was more accustomed to the kind of plot where she had the upper hand, rather than the current role-reversal.

The look in Ryan's eyes, as if he wanted to eat her whole, made her heart beat like the waves on the shore, unable to calm down.

Fortunately, Ryan is a considerate man... After noticing Syndra's reaction, he did not test her further, but gave Syndra a warm hug.

"Then you take a rest, I'll go out and take care of some chores..."

Compared to conquering Syndra, other things like finding demons and overthrowing the Pirate King are indeed not serious matters.

...

...

Ryan came out of the room and saw Sarah.

Miss Fortune had deep dark circles under her eyes, and her flaming red hair was no longer as smooth as it once was, now dry and messy.

Ryan's first reaction was panic, but he calmed down the next second.

The building materials of this pub may not be soundproof, but the darkness will not let any sound escape!

"Did you not sleep well last night?" Ryan asked.

"You seem to be the same?"

Sarah originally looked at Ryan with sympathy, but then the smart girl realized that Ryan would not be as worried about Planck's possible counterattack as she was.

Considering Ryan and Sindra sleeping in the same bed, and recalling Sindra's expression when she left last night...

Miss Fortune, who had little practical experience but a wealth of theoretical knowledge, smiled strangely.

Ryan seemed to see his former college roommates in a trance.

"You slept well, didn't you?"

Sarah's words had a hidden meaning.

"It's indeed better than you've slept in the past twenty years." Ryan also had something to say.

Schwarzenegger frowned. He could understand every word but not a single sentence. So, has he been eliminated by the times, or do young people today have a language unique to their age group?

"How do you think Gangplank will deal with us? Will he send his men directly to attack us, or will he have some more sinister and cunning plot to plot against us?"

Sarah stayed up almost all night last night because of these things, but she still had no clue.

In the past few years, she has been secretly trying to trip up Gangplank, but those actions were more like minor fights. At this stage, she is not able to confront Gangplank head-on.

"There's another possibility. If the demon really told him everything, the wisest thing for him to do would be to find a place to hide. I don't think Gangplank would sacrifice his life for the survival of Bilgewater."

"So you're saying I can go back and get a good night's sleep now?"

"If you want..."

Ryan didn't think Planck dared to come out. He would most likely hide in some dark corner and come up with some unsavory means.

Although he had never met Gangplank, from the background stories and his understanding of pirates, he knew that unless Gangplank was really forced into a life-and-death situation, he would not be much braver than an ostrich.
