late at night.

The stars are far away, and the full moon hangs high among the shining stars.

The moonlight falls on the sea, making waves sparkling.

Seven warships on the sea slowly sailed out of the darkness.

And on the port of the island in front of these seven warships.

Fires were everywhere and thick smoke was rising into the sky.

Looking from a distance, it seems as if the entire island is illuminated by a red light from the fire.

Several ships docked at the port had long been destroyed by fire. The wrecks of the ships were half-submerged in the sea with flashes of fire, and many corpses were scattered randomly around the wrecks of these ships.

Obviously, the enemy's attack was so sudden that these people did not react at all.

In the burning port, a three-masted sailboat was moored at the port.

Against the backdrop of the surrounding burning ports and the burned ships, the ship looked like a giant beast in flames.

On the pier in front of the ship, boxes were stacked one after another.

Apparently this is the best of all this town has to offer.

Next to these boxes, there were a large number of people with their hands tied up in a string with ropes.

Almost all of these people were women and children, but there were no men or elderly people.

Some of these people looked frightened, some were at a loss, and some were crying.

Beside these people stood dozens of pirates with indifferent expressions holding sailor swords and flintlock guns.

From time to time, they looked at the boxes at the dock with greedy expressions, and there were still boxes being moved in in the distance.

"The harvest this time is really good, but I don't know how much we can get."

Among the crew, someone glanced at the big boxes and whispered to his companions.

"Haha, don't think so much. No matter how much we harvest this time, we won't be able to get the bulk of it. Captain, deputy captain, bosun, after all these are divided, how much do you think you still have?"

A crewman holding a flintlock rifle sat on a pile of supplies and said disdainfully.

Speaking of which, their gains every time they attacked a city and a port were pretty good, but compared to the gains of those big shots, they were just like beggars.

"Damn it, why did we stick our heads on our trousers and end up with three melons and two dates?"

The crew member who started talking suddenly felt unbalanced when he thought about the income distribution between the captain and the officers on board.

Of course, it was because he was mentally unbalanced. After all, not to mention the captain, any one of those cadres could easily crush him to death.

"Sigh, I don't know if these women can let brothers..."

Before he finished speaking, the companions around him looked at him as if he were a fool.

now.

The slave trade, which was suppressed by the World Government with thunderous means, can almost be said to have disappeared on the sea.

And as the saying goes, these slaves can definitely be sold at a high price, and those cadres will not let them touch a finger of these 'goods'.

After more than half a year, the underground world has almost ushered in a round of purges. Except for the girls in Happy Street, almost all other industries have been liquidated.

The loan shark king Fukushen Rufield was burned to ashes by Akainu with lava in Red Harbor, and several other underground world emperors were hiding like rats on the street.

As for Big News Morgans, who was once one of the giants in the underground world, he has been completely cleansed because he embraced Nicholas and merged the World News Economic Newspaper into the World Government.

That guy even used the intelligence channel of World News and Economic News to provide some trading bases in the underground world to the World Government.

Because of this incident, Morgans' head has been priced at five billion beli on the black market, almost as much as the former Pirate King Roger's bounty.

After Morgans learned about this, he directly chose to move to live next to the New World Government.

At the beginning, a group of killers were dazzled by Morgans' high reward, but after hundreds of top killers were killed, and even three large killer organizations were blamed, the assassination trend subsided.

Come down.

"It's all that damn Nicholas's fault...if it weren't for him, we wouldn't be in this situation."

"Hey, look what's that in the sea? Is it a ship?"

One of the pirates suddenly rubbed his eyes and said to his companions uncertainly.

"It has been determined that the target is at the port ahead."

As a large flock of crows gathered on the deck, Karas's figure appeared, and his voice also reached the ears of Sakaski and Kuzan.

"knew."

With a cigar in his mouth and wearing a red suit, Sakaski looked at the port ahead, his eyes flashing with cold murderous intent.

Kuzan on the side was not surprised by Sakaski's murderous intent.

It is clear that the world has ushered in the dawn, and it is up to people like Sakaski to eradicate the remaining cancers of the past era.

above the port.

The warship approaching from a distance was naturally noticed by everyone.

The crew moved the supplies and slaves onto the ship quickly, and the supplies that were too late to be transported were simply abandoned.

In the past, they almost had no choice but to escape when faced with the navy. Now, after the establishment of the New World Government, the only option for the navy is to escape.

After all, although the navy was a major force on the sea in the past, it did not have the luxury to let generals attack them everywhere in ships.

The observation deck at the top of the mast of the three-masted sailing ship.

When the observer responsible for the lookout saw Sakaski and Kuzan standing on the deck of the warship, they were stunned.

"It's Akainu and Ao..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw a white line on the sea in the distance quickly spreading towards the port.

Almost instantly, their ship and the area around the port were instantly blocked by ice.

"Gulu..."

Looking at the frozen sea around them, many people couldn't help but feel their throats rolling, while cold sweat on their foreheads flowed down involuntarily.

They almost knew who was coming without the lookout hand opening their mouths, Admiral Aoji Kuzan and Admiral Akainu Sakaski.

Many crew members even lost the will to resist, and the weapons in their hands subconsciously fell to the deck.

If it were other navies, they might have the idea of ​​resistance, but when two admirals join forces, they still have to think about what to do to reduce the pain.

After being shocked, many people immediately rushed towards the slaves on the deck. For them, having hostages in their hands would increase their chances of survival.

"These guys are really naive. Is Kuzan okay?"

Seeing the pirates' plan to threaten them with hostages, Sakaski turned to Kuzan beside him and said.

"Ah, it's trivial."

After saying this, Kuzan on the side exerted force on his feet, and his whole body disappeared.

When Kuzan's figure appeared again, he had already arrived on the deck of the three-masted sailboat.

"Don't come here, we have hostages in our hands."

Seeing Kuzan's sudden appearance, many people said sternly.

"Ah la la, it's really a scary threat."

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Kuzan's figure disappeared from everyone's sight, and when he reappeared, there were already countless ice withers braving the cold air on the deck.

The captured slaves looked at the pirates who were suddenly frozen and did not react for a while.

"Don't worry, you are safe."

As Kuzan finished speaking, many people cried with joy and hugged each other.

At this time, Kuzan found a child staring at him with angry and aggrieved eyes.

This special look made Kuzan stop in his tracks.

"You seem to hate me?"

Kuzan squatted in front of the child and asked with some confusion.

"Why did you come so late! If you had arrived earlier, everyone... everyone wouldn't have died!"

As if he had found a way to vent his anger, tears burst out of his eyes instantly.

Looking at the aggrieved child and the burning port behind him, Kuzan couldn't help but fall into silence.

"sorry."

Maybe if they had come earlier, these tragedies would not have happened.

"Kuzan, do you now know how ridiculous your previous thoughts were?"

Sakaski appeared behind Kuzan at some point and said calmly.

"Kid, if you want revenge, grow up quickly and join the navy to completely eliminate these scum on the sea!"
