Chapter 180: Chapter 161: The New Owner of the Ghost Ship (Two-in-one, 6200 words)_2

Originally, he planned to assist the Shadow Ghost in defeating all these ghosts, but it seemed now that these little devils could still be of use?

In the distance, the massive ghost that was battling Shadow Ghost at a critical juncture was completely taken aback by the sudden appearance of Vieri. The Soul Fire inside it trembled uncontrollably.

Even though Vieri was but a feeble ghost right now, on the verge of obliteration, unable to even withstand a slap, the ghosts still felt a deep-rooted fear when faced with their former captain.

No matter how powerful he had become, it could not change the fact that he had been a traitor. Being trapped in the deep sea for so long was a rightful punishment for his treachery.

The ghosts faltered, but the Shadow Ghost didn’t. Seizing the opportunity as the Pirate Ghosts were momentarily distracted, it launched another wave of relentless attacks, turning the luminous auras of the ghosts black immediately.

On the verge of obliteration, the ghosts, now devoid of any concern for the figures opposite them, roared and launched their last and most vicious attack at the Shadow Ghost. However, the Shadow Ghost, being the very embodiment of berserk itself, would only become fiercer in the face of violence!

The Shadow Ghost once again adopted its philosophy of inflicting injuries in exchange for inflicting injuries on its opponent. Even though its HP was quickly depleting compared to the ghosts, the advantage was clear from its HP bar. After a round of brutal exchanges, it was the ghosts who collapsed first. With an aggrieved cry, they fell to the ground and dissolved into a writhing mass of souls.

However, the Shadow Ghost wasn’t faring well either. Despite having barely secured a victory after a ruthless battle, it was left gasping for breath, its form notably smaller and its spirit significantly weakened.

Dragging its wearied self forward, the Shadow Ghost picked up the soul that contained a vast amount of energy and swallowed it. It began acting sluggishly, similar to the state one enters right before falling asleep after a heavy meal.

Mu You, seeing this, didn’t hesitate for a moment and immediately used Teleport to get behind the Shadow Ghost. He threw the Sealed Box at it at an incredible speed.

Meanwhile, Vivian, who was at a distance, held onto her pocket watch, ready to rewind time in case Mu You messed up his sealing technique.

But it turned out that the Shadow Ghost no longer had any resistance left in it, and Mu You managed to quickly seal it within the box.

Mu You picked up the box for a look, only to see that the Shadow Ghost, now within the confines of the box, was no longer violently attempting to charge out as it had done before. Instead, it was huddled up in a corner, completely still, seemingly sound asleep.

"I hope it’s not broken..."

Mu You was slightly worried about the condition of the Shadow Ghost, but there was no time to inspect it further with the piles of ghosts still waiting for him to deal with.

He put away the Shadow Ghost Box and teleported back behind Vieri. Vivian automatically flew back onto his shoulder.

Being a fixture of the ship where his spirit resided, Vieri was similar to an Earthbound Spirit, which could not stray too far away from its place of death. If Vieri retreated too far from his accommodation, his spirit would rapidly fade.

Just like now when he forced himself to break out of his accommodation, Vieri had become notably blurred and seemed on the verge of complete oblivion at any moment.

"Captain!"

Watching Victor, the man who led them in the rebellion, get killed in front of them, and then seeing the former captain appear before them, all the Pirate Ghosts present completely lost their will to fight. They dropped their weapons, knelt on the ground, and began wailing, begging for the captain to forgive their past transgressions and grant their souls rest.

All things have a spirit. Seven hundred years ago, when the Ghost Ship sank, it wasn’t due to someone’s mistake. It was the Ghost Ship itself that had taken them into the Demon Sea. As one of the most notorious pirate ships on the high seas for centuries, the Ghost Ship naturally had its own ship spirit.

When they betrayed the captain and took over the Ghost Ship, they thought they finally had control over everything. Little did they know, they still couldn’t tame the ship spirit.

In the end, the Ghost Ship shattered itself to ensure that the four hundred traitors would be buried with the captain under the sea, where their souls would be eternally tormented.

After being imprisoned for over seven hundred years in this sunless place, their resentment had been worn away, and all that remained were regret and guilt.

"Don’t call me captain anymore!"

Vieri spoke up. Although his voice was ragged and interrupted, he persisted through to utter his last words: "I have already promised someone that whoever avenges me can own the Ghost Ship. From now on, he is the captain of the Ghost Ship, and your fates will be judged by this new captain!"

Vieri pointed towards Mu You, who was standing next to him, transferring the captainship to him.

Simultaneously, a prompt echoed in Mu You’s mind.

[Hidden mission ’Vieri’s Hatred’ completed. You have received Ghost Ship’s spirit approval and became the new owner of Ghost Ship. You have gained the absolute authority of Ghost Ship and can add or remove any boarding members at any time. You can also set Ghost Ship’s course at will.]

"It’s finally done..."

Mu You let out a breath. Despite facing numerous obstacles in the process, he had eventually completed this large-scale mission relatively smoothly. Compared to the tremendous reward received at the end, everything he went through was well worth it.

After one final appreciative and reluctant glance at the distant, broken Ghost Ship, Vieri turned to look at Mu You.

"She’s a good ship. I hope you can repair her and remember to maintain her frequently. The Ghost Ship, sailing the open seas, won’t let you down..."
