Chapter 116 Strong, hit casually!
The treasure locked by Mu this time is a little different from the past.
From the first time he got the treasure hunting module, he discovered that there are mainly two types of these markers on the system map: one is moving, and the other is not moving.
When he was on other people's boats before, he mainly aimed at immobile markers.
At that time, it was mainly to avoid unnecessary complications.
Of course, I missed it once. At first I was looking for a non-moving punctuation mark, but it suddenly started to move halfway through the search...
It was also that time, after killing the Ghost Pirates, Mu obtained Lalu Lasi's elf egg.
That relatively tortuous treasure hunting trip made him understand: Most of the treasures that move in the sea have been brought on board by other people!
In the past, he tried to avoid these treasures that would be more troublesome.
But now, all he's looking for is trouble!
Because he has just taken over a brand new fleet, Mu urgently needs to boost his prestige as the captain. A brilliant victory or a rich harvest will be extremely necessary!
From this point of view, simply digging treasures from the sea is far less shocking than randomly killing a lucky audience.
Therefore, he did not follow the chief mate's advice, but resolutely pursued the goal he had chosen.
For several days, he stood on the deck and steered the helm himself most of the time, letting the sun and the wind blow, referring to the system map, chasing a certain marked point to correct the direction at any time.
During this period, there were several rainstorms, which made Mu drenched enough.
This also made him deeply realize: it is not easy to be a captain!
It's cool to watch other people command, but when you go up and do it yourself, you can't avoid a lot of hard work...
Fortunately, no matter how erratic their course seems to outsiders, at least Mu himself has been looking at the map clearly, knowing that they are getting closer to the target.
On the ninth day of the voyage, the lookout on the ship finally found a surprise on the open sea.
"Captain! There's a boat to the southwest!! Looks like a private boat!"
At this time, the lookout on the Black Pearl was no longer Cornings.
As Captain Jack Sparrow's most loyal subordinate now, Mu promoted him to the position of Warrior Captain.
Of course, at present, this appointment is obviously a matter of closeness rather than ability. Fortunately, before leaving, Dong Milia came to help him clean up a wave of face, so there is no need to worry about the dissatisfaction of his subordinates for the time being.
Hearing the watchman's call, everyone on the deck cheered up immediately.
Only Mu's telescope was locked in that direction before the watchman made a sound.
The ship in the distance is obviously where the treasure is!
He has been chasing this ship for so many days!
The navigator arranged by the fourth prince on the ship soon boarded the deck. Mu handed him the binoculars and asked by the way, "Do you know that noble family crest?"
In the distance, it is obviously a private car of a nobleman, and the evidence is that the buildings on the ship are too tall and gorgeous.
Normally, no matter merchant ships or warships, the buildings on board will not be built too high, because that will affect the speed of the ship.Generally, only the mast and a forecastle are kept above the deck, and the essence is hidden in the cabin.
In this era, only the private boats of the nobles would choose to build the buildings on the boat with a special style, just like the car of the Grand Duke Courber that Mu once saw.
Except for the size of the ship in the distance, the size of the ship is one size smaller. In terms of the gorgeousness of the building, it is not much inferior to the Grand Duke's car back then.
Typical noble private boat.
It's just that the navigator beside him held up his binoculars and looked at it for a long time, and finally he only smiled wryly.
"The old man doesn't recognize the family crest on the boat, but it must be from a big family in the Gardenia Kingdom."
Mu curled his lips secretly.
It goes without saying that the other party is from the Gardenia Kingdom. Even the national flag is hung on the top of the mast on the opposite side.
In fact, the navigator arranged by the fourth prince just didn't see anything.
This made Mu couldn't help but miss Uncle Jim who was on the Cleveland at the time.
Sure enough, this person, without comparison, there is no harm.
If you can't count on intelligence, you can only force yourself.
"Raise the Jolly Roger!! Come over at full speed! The gunners in the cabin are ready!!"
Mu ordered loudly.
"Raise the flag!! Forward!!"
……
"Raise the flag!! Forward!!"
……
The order was relayed throughout the ship by sailors.
At this time, the first officer who was also aged came over and persuaded: "Captain, is it inappropriate to attack rashly like this? I think we should stop looking at the situation?"
Mu turned his head and gave him a cold look.
On the Black Pearl today, the first mate and the navigator are the oldest. Unlike the group of young trainers that Dong Milia gave her, these two are very experienced veteran seamen arranged by the fourth prince.
Mu really needs their experience and experience.
But this does not mean that he can allow someone to raise such doubts after he has clearly issued the order to the entire ship.
He knew that the attitude of these two people towards him was always somewhat disapproving.
Among them, his young age accounted for a large part of the reason, and the fourth prince's subordinates generally didn't trust him as much as Dong Milia and the church's family was another part of the reason.
He can understand all these.
But it doesn't mean he has to accept it!
"Now I am the captain, first mate! Do your job well, and I trust my soldiers."
Mu responded indifferently in a non-fluctuating tone.
The cold look in his eyes immediately made the first officer realize something.
His experience made him quickly understand what to do.
"Yes, my captain!"
Afterwards, the Black Pearl hoisted the pirate flag with a ghost face on a black background, and its speed increased steadily, heading straight for the distant target!
Standing at the forefront of the bow at this time, Mu stood facing the wind, seemingly fearless and relentless.
In fact, the palms of his hands behind his back were also soaked in sweat.
The first attack, without any information, just go directly, don't panic at all?That must be a lie!
But he is also clear: this battle is necessary.
Without a hearty victory and harvest, he can't really control the ship!
In fact, what he really believed in was not his soldiers, but the speed of the Black Pearl.
He thought very clearly: No matter what kind of momentum you have to show first, if it doesn't work, just turn around and run away, the speed of seventeen knots, the top battleship with full sail, is going to mess with you?
Of course, these heartfelt words must not be repeated...
Don't ask, the question is that this wave is very strong, just fight!
When the Black Pearl braved the wind and waves, made no secret of its purpose, and aggressively approached the noble private ship in the distance, the opposite ship quickly noticed the situation.
At first everyone panicked, and the boathouse was in a mess.
Until the nobleman with the highest status on board slapped the table and shouted, "What are you panicking about?!"
Then he raised his wine glass and ordered majesticly: "Get ready to fight! It's just a group of chickens and dogs on the sea. Could they still threaten the great Boschman family?"
Coincidentally, the person in charge on the boat here seems to feel the same: They are very strong in this wave, so they can fight at will...
(Ps: It should be on the shelves tomorrow, ask for a first order in advance...)
