Chapter 507: Chapter 297: Sea Whirlpool_2

"A minor matter." Finn chuckled lightly, waving a hand towards the ships behind him.

"Lads, it’s time to get busy!"

"Hoist the sails all the way up. At your fastest speed, tear open a hole in the fleet ahead!"

"Understood!"

The pirates let out a volley of war cries, swiftly shifting into battle mode.

Full sails billowing on nine ships, they charged forward at full speed under the forceful push of the sea wind.

Before two rival groups could even draw close, fires from the ship’s cannon began dancing wildly across the sky.

Flames burst into the sky, the sound of explosions echoed incessantly, and the nearby sea surface became instantaneous clouded with gun smoke.

The Black Dragon was still the Dragon Knight Pirate Group’s vanguard, its roar surging across the sky, reaching the front line of the battlefield first. However, the men of Monarch Divine Mandate have learned their lesson. This time, they were well-prepared with anti-air weapons. The Black Dragon didn’t dare approach too closely and could only hover high above, occasionally spitting Dragon Breath, its deterrence greatly reduced.

Amidst the artillery barrage, ships from both sides suffered various degrees of damage, but none of them could prevent each other from closing the gap. Soon enough, the vessels from both factions came into close quarters combat.

For a moment, tumultuous battle cries shook the heavens and the sights of various magical spells flickered ceaselessly, transforming the situation into a brutal brawl.

Having obtained a substantial numerical advantage this time, the fleet from Monarch Divine Mandate didn’t perform as poorly as they did in the Blai Island incident. Faced with aggressive pirates bearing down on them, they effectively organized a counter-attack. As a result, the Dragon Knight Pirate Group found themselves embroiled in a tough fight from the get-go.

"Cap’n, these guys seem to be stronger now..." A sailor behind Finn couldn’t help but voice his observation.

Finn, watching the state of the battle before his eyes, also frowned in concern.

People were dying around him continuously, but none were teleporting away. Instead, they chose to rejoin the battle immediately after resurrection on the spot.

This wasn’t about the enemy’s enhanced Fighting Power but rather their boosted morale.

They were likely to have been issued some kind of desperation order, determined to block them here no matter the cost.

If not for other distractions, Finn would surely not fear shedding blood in a face-off with the opponent here. The problem was, they currently had the big boss, Octopus King, chasing after them from behind who may appear anytime. They had to retreat from the battlefield before that, having no time to engage in a prolonged fight here.

"Brother, I’ll try my best to disrupt their formation for you. It’s going to be up to you to break through after that!" Finn quickly shouted over to Mu You.

"Don’t worry, you guys have already done plenty!" Mu You gave him a thumbs up.

Although the Dragon Knight Pirate Group’s assault could not directly tear through the opposing team’s defenses, they had undoubtedly greatly distracted the opposition. The Ghost Ship was well guarded all the way and was still in peak condition; getting through would not be a problem.

Mu You pushed the Sea Wind Scepter to its limits; a powerful gust blew like a giant hand, propelling the Ghost Ship to speed ahead, charging directly at the weakest point in the opponent’s formation.

"Haha, leave the vanguard’s task to me!"

The Pandaren hopped down from the bow of the Ghost Ship, setting foot on the water below, and charged towards the opposing ship. Behind him, the Troll War God followed suit.

The Legendary Witch Doctor stood at the ship’s bow, beginning the Dance of the Beast God. A white light immediately enveloped the Pandaren and the Troll War God up front, entering a state of magic immunity.

Supported by magic immunity, the Pandaren and Troll War God fearlessly leaped onto the enemy ship, immediately causing havoc. They stood their ground amidst a group of the enemy players, especially the Pandaren, his agile body dodging as if made of dough, forcing the opponents to experience the terror of constant, hundred percent evasion.

Mu You conjured a ThunderNet in place, aiming it towards the opposing ship. Huge clusters of thunderclouds instantly enclosed the two ships blocking his way. Lightning surged incessantly, and two magic-immune beastkin flaunted their prowess. Those on the two ships were immediately thrown into chaos, too occupied with protecting themselves and incapable of hindering the Ghost Ship.

The Ghost Ship boldly drove straight in, colliding and pushing two ships apart, allowing it to pass through.

By the time Monarch Divine Mandate’s other ships responded and attempted to pursue, they were already left quite a distance by the super-fast speed of the Ghost Ship.

"Brilliant!"

Finn secretly praised to himself. The Ghost Ship had made a breakthrough more smoothly than he expected, which would definitely reduce their pressure.

Sure enough, spotting their primary target slipping through, the opposing fleet immediately lost their will to fight, turning their ships around to give chase.

The Dragon Knight Pirate Group naturally wouldn’t pass up on this opportunity. They instantly started harassing from the rear, taking full advantage of the situation. The fleet of Monarch Divine Mandate was annoyed to no end yet unable to break free, the distance between them and the Ghost Ship grew wider with time.

Only after the Ghost Ship had gotten far enough, Finn ordered his men to hold their fire. Their task here was considered done. Now, their priority was to evacuate this conflict zone before the arrival of the Octopus King.

"Brother, we’ll retreat for now, until we meet again!" Finn said his goodbyes to Mu You through a communication device.

"Many thanks for your efforts, until we meet again!"

Mu You stood on the deck of the Ghost Ship, watching as the members of the Dragon Knight Pirate Group left in another direction. The men of Monarch Divine Mandate were still in pursuit, but they were already too far away to pose any threat.

This stage of the battle finally came to an end. The actual situation was not as fierce as he imagined. After all, his only opponent was Monarch Divine Mandate, and there were only a few hundred of them, not difficult to handle.

Mu You estimated that the truly brutal battlefield would be found at another entrance.
