Chapter 409: Chapter 251: Special Order · Donation Order! Seven Seas Law Code!_1

The moment they entered The Cross Sea Area, it was very obvious that the wind had completely changed.

It was as though they had entered another world, with the deep, unfathomable black sea water and savage storms coming straight at them. This wind was entirely different from the sea breeze they were used to.

Captain Sam shouted aloud, "We have entered the Cross Sea, we have entered the world of pirates!"

"Everybody, get moving! First mate, you arrange for the sailors to change the sails’ wind direction, the helmsmen...we have two now, let the pirate steer! He’s skilled, the original helmsman will join the sailors!"

"Everybody, get moving."

The sailors immediately got moving in an orderly fashion. The work of pulling the rigging to adjust the sails, especially under such heavy wind, was laborious. Thus, Captain Sam asked Wilson for his team’s assistance.

Everyone got into action.

To prevent the ship from capsizing.

On the deck of the ship, Ivita said to Hearthstone Witch who still stayed on the spot: "The moment we entered this sea area, I felt a tremendous pressure. It feels as though this sea is alive, projecting upon us a profound sense of malevolence."

"The malice is suffocating."

Hearthstone Witch saluted Ivita and then said, "Your Majesty, every place in this world is governed by different laws."

"Different laws create distinctive characteristics of each world."

"The Seven Seas Law Code is one of the most aggressive laws in the world. If one stays in these seas for too long, even those with weak will might lose their sanity."

Ivita went to the side of the ship, looking down at the rolling sea supporting his ship. From this malice, he could sense a primitive roar.

"[Come on! War! Slaughter! Robbery!]"

"[Those who are weak don’t deserve to live in this world!]"

"[Let go of your human nature, transforming into beasts here! Bite each other, loot from each other, the savage world will submerge civilization!]"

Hearthstone Witch said to Ivita, "Your Majesty, our spiritual power is too strong, so we are more sensitive and sensible to changes in the surroundings, but we are also easily affected by them."

"Are you okay?"

Ivita shook his head, it seemed that he had just hallucinated while trying to observe the law governing the sea through the water.

The voices he heard just now were hallucinations created by his imagination, based on his feelings towards this sea area.

Ivita quickly understood what had just happened.

"It’s nothing." Ivita took out his compass and glimpsed at it, the needle hasn’t changed, it was still pointing at 69.6 degrees east.

Ivita turned around and shouted to Captain Sam, who was ordering the sailors on the deck, "Direct the helmsman to steer towards 69.6 degrees east and maintain this course!"

Captain Sam was stunned for a moment, but it was Ivita’s ship and he had to follow the direction that Ivita wanted to go.

He immediately started shouting towards the cab inside to instruct the helmsman to change the direction.

Ivita stood at the edge of the ship, feeling the ship sway under the turbulence of the wind and waves. The barrel storing apples, placed on the deck, slid left and right, back and forth like a marble in a dish.

Suddenly, he saw, amidst the black sea filled with raging waves, a turtle to the left of his ship.

Not only was the turtle swiftly flapping its limbs in the sea like rowing a boat,

But there was also a glass bottle, bound by a string on its back, which contained a little scroll of parchment.

Ivita instantly understood. Someone was actually using a turtle to transport information in the turbulent waves of the Black Sea!

!!

This was outrageous.

Who uses a sea turtle as a mailman?

Upon seeing this, the Hearthstone Witch was greatly surprised. "Your Majesty, those pirates are strange, using a sea turtle to deliver a message. What kind of message is it? Let me catch it and take a look."

With a wave of her hand, the glass bottle on the turtle’s back flew up automatically, floating towards her.

The turtle carrying the glass bottle immediately became anxious, raising its head and biting the red ribbon tied to the glass bottle, trying to stop the old witch.

But the old witch wickedly laughed and waved her hand again, shooting a fireball at the turtle’s back. The turtle was suddenly upset on the sea surface by the fireball, and the glass bottle unexpectedly fell into the hands of the Hearthstone Witch.

The Hearthstone Witch looked at the anxious turtle swimming incessantly by the ship, feeling a bit strange. "That turtle seems undying."

"As a high-ranking witch, my fire magic can easily kill an ordinary sea turtle."

"It should have been dead by now."

She opened the glass bottle.

At this time, Captain Sam, who was directing the sailors on the side, saw this scene and his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets, "Don’t open it!"

"Why did you pick up the command scroll from Central Harbour? It’s not meant for us!"

"That’s a decree issued by the Master of Law under the Seven Seas Codex!"

The Hearthstone Witch had already opened the glass bottle; only then did she realize that she had caused trouble again.

Ivita squinted at the Hearthstone Witch.

This... This..." The Hearthstone Witch took out the woolen scroll from the glass bottle, and after opening it, she saw many words written on it, issued from Central Harbour, Upper City– by Great Governor, Rock Jackson.

The Hearth Stone witch read out the words. "In the name of the Seven Seas Codex, a [Special Order - Donation Order] is issued to the entire crew of the Beard Pirate Ship. To deal with the recent harassment of the fleet of the Republic of Belisarius, Upper City Central Harbour has decided to require all pirates to contribute some money to purchase cannons and recruit necessary technical workers, to prepare for a possible war. Therefore, within a month, you are required to return to Central Harbour in Upper City with 30 gold pounds."

"If this law is violated, you will be stripped of your pirate status in the Cross Island, all the pirate ship components on your ship will cease to work, immediately comply with the order."

Ivita looked at this law, feeling somewhat strange. "What are Upper City and Central Harbour?"

"Donation Order?"

"Do pirates pay tax too?"

The Hearthstone Witch knew she had caused trouble, so she immediately said to Ivita, "We can just throw this thing back to that sea turtle."

"I’ll..."

Immediately, Captain Sam stopped her, saying: "No, this is a special order under the Seven Seas Law Code, meaning whoever receives it is considered the recipient."

"Unless we return this command scroll to the person who was supposed to receive it."

Ivita’s face darkened, and he glared at Hearthstone Witch, his eyes filled with anger.

He had never paid a huge sum like 30 gold pounds before!!!

The Hearthstone Witch had never seen Ivita so angry before, she quickly said: "Since that sea turtle appeared here, it means that the Beard Pirate Group is nearby."

"Don’t worry... We..."

Captain Sam looked at Ivita, "Shall we change course?"

Ivita clenched his fist. "First, we must find the magic I’m seeking. That is the main goal. So, no change."

"As for the money owed, just let Hearthstone Witch return it. But what exactly is Central Harbour? Can pirates also have a central organization and collect taxes?"

"Do they still count as pirates?"

"Why can this Seven Seas Law Code issue these special orders?"
