Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 179 Welcome to the Great Pirate Age

"It's miserable. It's really miserable."

Byron took one last glance at his superior, Major General Newman, "Bill's" father-in-law, and then withdrew his gaze from Fat Dragon who had already eaten the geoduck and was fighting bloody.

Back on the Golden Deer, he couldn't let go of the contract conch.

“Look at you. Not only did you not retreat behind the others at the beginning, but you kept rushing forward, especially when the Barbary pirates still had a trump card.

"Mr. Major General, I really didn't intend to trick you so early. Now you've fallen into the trap and can't get out, right?"

As a qualified behind-the-scenes mastermind, after setting the stage for the two protagonists and the unexpected supporting characters, you don't have to see the ending with your own eyes to know that it will definitely be a good show.

Byron did not have that quirk of criminals who return to the scene of their crimes to admire their handiwork.

If he were caught by the victim, wouldn't he become a clown like the villain who died because of talking too much?

However, he also knew that in such a melee, unless he was besieged by a crowd, as long as he focused on escaping, the mid-sequence extraordinary people would most likely not die.

There is a high possibility that his subordinates will suffer a loss of strength.

Byron felt that now, perhaps not only Westwind Express, but also the business of Pioneer Navigation Military Dispatch Company could be started together.

At this time, chaos broke out in the Combined Fleet which was caught off guard by the sudden change.

"Just now, the Barbary pirate said that their large army also went to the Bay of Campeche. Doesn't that mean that the two overlords of the Old World have already started a war?"

"The general is gone, what should we do now?"

"Do you still want to go to the colonies to pick up bargains?"

The remaining naval fleet of the Kingdom of Hastings and the privateering fleet of the pirate generals also lost their backbone and were somewhat at a loss.

One of the pirate generals in the fleet, [Cutthroat], suddenly suggested:

“Now that the cooked duck of the Barbary corsairs has flown away, we shall make up for the loss with the island of Taiman Brac, which the Castilians have seized.

Ladies and gentlemen, this situation is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and is much better than our original plan of sneaking around and getting a bargain.

Since the Star-Moon Empire has already declared war on Castile, if the two tigers fight each other, one of them will inevitably be injured, or even both will suffer losses.

This is the perfect time for us to seize the opportunity and rise.”

His proposal was immediately responded to by everyone, and they all turned around and marched towards Taimanbulak, which was the Castilian's forward base and had a large amount of supplies stored.

The course of the battle was completely predictable, and the remaining Castilian personnel surrendered.

Then, Byron, the nominal lord, took over the place again with full legitimacy, and distributed the land on the spot according to the agreement with the transfer fee of one gold coin.

During this period, they also received intelligence from senior executives of various companies.

"The Invincible Fleet was attacked by the Barbary pirates who had planned for a long time. The Castilians suffered heavy losses and were at an absolute disadvantage.

It is only a matter of time before they preserve a certain amount of strength and flee collectively.

It is estimated that the control and defense capabilities of the colonies in the Bantaan Islands will be greatly reduced for a considerable period of time.

The new overlord may be the Star-Moon Empire represented by the Barbary pirates.

But they also cannot be considered a complete winner.

[Blue Hair] Barbarossa Helding was attacked by the angry Havana Governor Velasquez and his injuries are unknown."

As the information spread, before the battle in the Gulf was over, all the major forces that had been suppressed by the Castilians for a long time began to celebrate.

Everyone knows that in the past, both the Kingdom of Castile and the Star-Moon Empire were not easy to mess with.

Now that his strength has plummeted, other countries don't mind taking advantage of his misfortune to kill him.

From Taimanbulak, the combined fleet never stopped, continuing eastwards to plunder the colonies along the Havana Island. At the same time, the sapphire sea where the Bantaan Islands are located is too large to intersect with the east-west route, and there are still countless forces that did not participate in the combined fleet.

Perhaps the warships did not dare to be sent out directly, but the privateers belonging to the major forces had no scruples and swarmed towards the colonies and even the military ports of the Kingdom of Castile.

Don't bother too much, just grab something and run away.

From Media Luna to Betiantes, from the city of Trinidad to Pinos Island, from the Zapata Swamp to the Bay of Batavano, most of the Bantayan Islands were in chaos.

When all the snow starts shaking, there is nothing that can stop an avalanche.

When the frenzy of war sweeps over every individual, even the will of the top leaders will be completely overwhelmed.

Once the chaos begins, even if Castile's military strength is restored to its original state, it will be difficult to deter the outside world as before.

Byron had long since returned to the Tyman Islands, eating buttered popcorn while watching the show.

“The premise for all this to happen is that most of the fourth and fifth level warriors left their comfort zones and headed to the sea further south in order to advance further.

This leaves a vacuum of interests that they despise.

Whether it was me, or the former [Conqueror] Cortes, or the [Blue Hair] Barbarossa Hailding of the Barbary Pirates, we all wanted to seize this opportunity to do something big. "

He also clearly realized that what was lost was only a small part of the power of the two overlords, the Kingdom of Castile and the Star-Moon Empire.

The main force of the Invincible Fleet is at least level three ships, and there is not a single one here. At most, it only has a few more level four ships than other fleets.

The situation is similar for the left hand of the King of [Ocean Throne].

A fifth-level legendary beast tamer, most of his strength lies in his army of sea monsters, and the pirate ship is just a foil.

The brief period of military vacuum does not mean that the two families have suffered serious damage.

Returning to the basics, Byron is still just an ordinary second-level pirate.

He was never a conspirator who fanned the flames and brought disaster to both forces in one fell swoop.

But during this vacuum period when both sides suffered great losses in strength, Castile's merchant ships and colonies lacked protection, and the strongest group of pirate forces licked their wounds.

It will surely usher in a golden age in which the power of various countries will expand rapidly.

"What I have to do next is to seize this fleeting God-given opportunity and manage this international port well.

Once an established fact is reached and the interests of enough people are swept up, even those fifth-level [King Titles] will find it difficult to change the status quo.

Only when the big tree falls can the small trees growing at its feet get enough rain and sunshine.

Now is also the only chance for small forces to soar to the sky."

No one knew that everything was just a result of Byron's use of the "Bird-Billed Plague Doctor" to spread a huge lie that the Taino people were about to become extinct.

He, the [Storm Knight], once again succeeded in making the clouds and rain with a flip of his hand.

Spirituality also made a somersault and broke through the 8-point mark.

Several huge mountains seemed to be removed from above his head at once, and Byron's mind suddenly became bright.

“Since arriving at the Bantaan Islands, the Golden Hind has been passively swept into the colonial tide and has been pushed forward all the way.

I haven’t had time to stop and savor the food, visit the sights, explore the countless secrets of the world, and pursue forbidden knowledge.”

Facing the sea, spreading out my arms, I whispered to myself and to the world:
“When a whale dies, everything comes to life.

Welcome to the Great Pirate Era, where all up-and-coming talents have a chance to shine!
Although this is serving the public, all oppressed people share the benefits equally.

But you're welcome, I'm Byron Lancaster, just a troublemaker for fun."
