Pirate Kingship-Chapter 709 - 474: Pirate Code, Treasure-Seeking Alliance (7200)_3

"Huff... huff..."

Breathing heavily with anger still not dissipated from her face, she transformed her hands into two hard candy chain hammers.

As a seasoned Pirate Warlord who has honed the Fischer Swordsmanship for many years, her close combat skills are by no means weak compared to Fairy Tale Witchcraft.

But as soon as she looked up, she met Byron's indifferent blue eyes next to the pit, and for some inexplicable reason, her heart trembled, her boiling blood receded like a tide, and every nerve screamed at her:

"I'm going to die! I'm going to die!

This merciless killing aura... how many people has he killed? And how many Fourth Order Mythical Creatures?

If he wants to kill me, even with a sugarified body immune to physical attacks, I would surely die!"

In fact, her perception was not wrong at all.

[Double-faced Person] Smith Brothers, [Infinite Evolver] Balboa, [Plunderer] Pizarro, [God of Fertility] Frey from Bayfolk Exiles, [Goddess of Love and Beauty] Freya, [Gemini of Light and Darkness] Brothers, a whole bunch of Sons of the Sun...

Unknowingly, Byron and Violet have killed more Fourth Order Heroes or Mythical Creatures than many have seen with their own eyes.

And naturally, their killing aura grew more intense.

Like a chef who has run a dog meat restaurant for decades, one glance could scare the fiercest mad dog into submission.

Seeing Ivanka already subdued, Byron also withdrew his killing intent and showed her a gentle smile:

"Madam Ivanka, don't worry, we're not good people and won't take your head for prestige.

However, you arrived just in time; I plan to hold a captain's meeting, why not join us and hear the rules of my game?"

At this moment, the Candy Witch also recognized their identity and, realizing she was outmatched, dared not utter a single word of refusal.

A bit awkwardly, she performed a nearly forgotten noble curtsy, accompanied by a sweet candy fragrance, and forced a smile:

"As you wish, Your Highness."

Pirates are realists; if they can defeat you, you're the Wanted Criminal with a bounty exceeding Fifty Thousand Pounds; if not, you're the esteemed His Royal Highness the Prince.

Byron understood this well.

If she agreed, it meant "won't take your head for prestige", but if she disagreed? Ha, it would immediately turn into: "Don't be silly, lady, I don't kill women, bang!".

In other directions, the three Pirate Warlords had yet to show themselves, wanting to see the strength of these two formidable dragons through Candy Witch Ivanka.

After witnessing the battle's outcome, even the Thief Baron Valyrian, who knew Violet best, was utterly surprised.

Ever since he saw this "Orphan's Alliance", his face never ceased with astonishment:

"They're both Fourth Order?!

The Princess has clearly ascended to Fourth Order [Gunsmith], while the [Mad Hunt] is a Storm Knight along with some unknown Mythical Creature.

Two fallen Royal Family descendants possessing such strength at a young age, why would they need my help to bolster their reputation?

With their power alone, they could suppress Black Sails Harbor's Warlords and Great Pirates who each harbored ulterior motives."

As much as he was happy for Violet's growth, there was a certain "what was unattainable before, is now unwanted" bittersweet feeling.

That's probably the price of growth.

Of course, the growth belonged to his little Princess, while the price was him, the already outdated antique unable to keep up with the times.

Then he waved to disband most of the crew, taking only his core Heroic Guardsmen with him.

The other two Warlords, [Dung Eater] One-eyed Owl and [Goat Captain] Alex, also gasped at the strength of these two formidable dragons.

"Hiss—!"

They could see that these two, young as they were, not only possessed Fourth Order strength but each had the ability to single-handedly defeat the Candy Witch.

Simply... terrifying!

They couldn't help but frown, realizing the trouble these powerful newcomers might bring, fearing the strong dragons might suppress them, the local powers.

Furthermore, looking at their early preparations in Pirate City and countless supportive Bayfolk, it seemed that they were even closer to the ground than these local forces.

Still, after arranging enough personnel for necessary precautions, they gathered their men and headed to the council hall.

They must see what these "supernovas" within the pirate community intend to do at Black Sails Harbor.

If the other party dared to play tricks like deploying eight hundred bladesmen, they, as seasoned Old Sea Dogs, were confident they could... escape!

...

Clang! Clang! Clang!...

On this day, the long-neglected Bronze Bell in the clock tower of the council hall was struck again, after an unknown length of time.

Pirate captains scattered around Black Sails Harbor enjoying themselves came to the council hall upon hearing the bell.

In the semicircular tiered hall, they found familiar friends to sit and discuss together.

"What's going on? Are we choosing a Speaker again?"

"Bah, every time there's an election, don't these Warlords each vote for themselves? What's there to choose?"

"You're right, we have no Fifth Order Pirate King raising the Pirate Flag in Black Sails Harbor now.

Unless there are huge interests as a target to unite people and a strong enough figure to suppress the other Warlords.

Otherwise, this seemingly strong pirate city is like a sand castle, easily dispersed by the waves."

"Brother, you have insight..."

For many years without a new Pirate King appearing, Black Sails Harbor followed the captain's parliament system of Iron Anchor Bay.
