Chapter 42 Daily life on the battleship
Both incidents of Yamato bombarding the red-haired Redfoss and destroying the Ghost Pirates with artillery fire have been exposed by the press. In particular, the photos on the front page headlines intuitively reflect the fierce artillery fire on Yamato.
With the news exposed, many people now know the name of the Yamato. The Yamato is praised by many people as the ship with the most powerful firepower, the hardest hull, and the farthest artillery range at the sea.
Especially the main gun that can tear a medium-sized pirate ship apart with one shot is the most relish.
After these two incidents were exposed, the title of Wang Han, the strongest bounty hunter, became even louder, and was even called by some people the strongest bounty hunter who can fight against the Four Emperors.
At the same time, the locations of the news were exposed on the Great Way, which also made everyone know that the ship is currently in the first half of the Great Way, and the strongest bounty hunter Wang Han is now in the first half of the Great Way.
As Yamato was exposed to everyone's eyes, many people on the sea began to find the location of this huge warship. Some wanted to join, some wanted this ship, and even some wanted to become famous.

"boom!"
"Crazy..."
The huge water column was blown up fifty meters away from the pirate ship. The blown water column was thirty meters in diameter and was as high as a hundred meters. The waves caused the ship to rise and fall, which made the people on the ship feel so shocked that they were sweating coldly.
"call out...."
"boom!"
Another shell flew over, this time it was flying over the ship, and huge water columns exploded in front of the ship. The huge scream of the giant shells whistled past even caused the sailors on the ship to tinnitus.
"Take the sails to the right!" Looking at the huge water column that exploded in front, the navigator on the boat screamed, desperately hitting the rudder to the right.
At the screams of the navigators, the sailors desperately pulled the rope that controlled the sails, and even tried to get enough to eat. Everyone's expressions were horrified and anxious.
"Bastard! How could we meet!"
At the stern of the boat, looking at the giant warship ten nautical miles behind, Johnson wearing a captain's hat cursed angrily, feeling extremely worried.
The warship chasing behind is undoubtedly the Yamato, which is known as the strongest warship on the sea today.

On the battleship, inside the turret of the first main gun, the sharpshooter Tracy was responsible for controlling the main gun for aiming, while the others assisted in the turret rotation.
The 460mm cannon, the people on the ship had long wanted to try it out in person, even Guina and chef Franklin were assisting.
"Turn eastward at 0.4 degrees, lower 0.1 degrees. No. 1 gun, prepare."
Marco's voice came from the megaphone of the command tower.
"Turn eastward at 0.4 degrees, lower 0.1 degrees. No. 1 gun, prepare."
Hearing the shouting, Tracy immediately directed the others, and the cannon slowly turned a little. As we were about to shout, everyone quickly put on soundproofing headphones.
"Bang."
The next moment, the three-unit main gun No. 1 sprayed out a nearly fifteen-meter-long flame tongue. A 1.5-ton shell was shot out from the barrel and shot at the fleeing ship ten nautical miles away.
"boom!"
The next moment, amid the huge explosion of fire, the ship more than 40 meters long was blown into pieces on the sea.
"I've hit it!"
Seeing that he hit the target, Tracy jumped up excitedly. The others were full of excitement when they heard Tracy's shouting.
"Trisey, it's up to you to report the spot next time, I'll control it."
Marco hurriedly ran down from the command tower, ran into the turret, and said impatiently. He was looking forward to meeting the next pirate group as soon as possible.
"When will it be us?" Yasuo said expectantly. Although he is a swordsman, controlling the 460mm giant cannon to fire is also very tempting for him, especially the most tempting and exciting thing for him to be responsible for firing.
As for aiming, he only needs to aim according to the coordinates given by the command tower.
"Everyone takes turns to come, and there is a chance."
Looking at the noisy people, Wang Han said with a smile. Today, Wang Han is teaching them how to operate weapons on battleships, including close-defense guns, secondary guns, and anti-aircraft guns.
As for the navigation of battleships, except for himself, at least fifty people can control the battleships for normal navigation, which does not include combatants. Wang Han also plans to continue recruiting people, so he will train first.
——————————
Time passed day by day, and with satellite guidance, Wang Han controlled the Yamato battleship and kept shuttled through the seven routes of the great channel. He never stayed on an island for more than a day. Any pirate group he encountered would be used by the people on the ship to practice.
In just five days, seventeen pirate groups were sunk by the Yamato cannon, and all the people on the pirate ship were shot and killed.
Seventeen pirate groups were encountered in just five days. Although there were reasons Wang Han deliberately sought, the rampant pirates on the great channel could also be seen.
Many of the destruction of more than a dozen pirate groups were seen. For a time, all the pirates in the first half of the Great Channel were cautious, and some even dared not even leave the sea, for fear of meeting Wang Han.
Those who want to find Wang Han or the Yamato idea are also because the Yamato is constantly shuttled on the seven routes of the great channel, not fixed on one or two routes, and they can only return in a desperate situation and cannot even chase after them. After all, other people are not able to jump repeatedly on the seven routes.
