Pirate King: I'm determined to be the King of Sons-in-Law!

Chapter 28 Victory and Warmth

"Kill Captain Clooney!"

The pirates roared as they charged toward Kuro.

Under hypnosis, they completely lost their ability to think, and their minds were left with only one goal: to kill Kro.

The sudden change caught even the Navy off guard, and they couldn't understand why the pirates would suddenly turn on each other.

Faced with the berserk and irrational pirates, the marines instinctively made way for them, allowing the pirates to make contact with Kuro.

When the pirate cat brothers leaped into the air and launched a frenzied attack on Kuro, the marines finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There's really infighting going on!

Although we don't know what happened, the infighting among pirates is a good thing for the Navy, as it can effectively reduce their own casualties.

At Colonel Rhodes's instruction, the captains immediately relayed the operational orders to the marines.

"retreat!"

"Rebuild our defenses! We can't let any pirates escape!"

"Quickly, treat the wounded!"

The marines quickly retreated and rebuilt their defenses on the perimeter of the battlefield, using a combination of shield walls and rifles to surround the pirates who were engaged in fierce fighting.

Meanwhile, the support team quickly entered the scene and transferred the injured marines to a safe area for emergency treatment.

Colonel Rhodes grabbed Loya, who was still trying to rush forward to fight, and roared at him, "Idiot, go bandage your wounds!"

"What wound?"

Loya didn't react.

When he looked down, he discovered several bloody wounds on his chest, with white ribs faintly visible amidst the torn flesh.

Once the body becomes aware of the wound, the body's deception of the brain immediately disappears, and excruciating pain follows!

"hiss----"

Loya gasped, his scalp twitching violently.

Damn it, why did I have to remind him!

It hurts so much!

He didn't know when he was slashed by Kro. He might have felt pain, but in his full-fledged combat, the pain was completely shielded by his body's instincts.

Colonel Rhodes was also injured, his waist and abdomen already soaked in blood, but he couldn't go down until he caught Crow.

"Loya, go to the rear medical team!"

"Colonel Rhodes!"

Despite the pain, Loya ripped off his shirt and used it as a bandage to wrap around his chest, then tied the two sleeves in a knot and pulled hard.

hiss----!

Damn, that hurts so much!

"I can still fight!"

Loya was panting heavily, his eyes contorted with rage.

He couldn't back down as long as Kro was still alive. He wouldn't be satisfied if he couldn't see Kro fall with his own eyes!

Colonel Rhodes' face darkened, but seeing Loya gritting his teeth and enduring the pain, he swallowed his reprimand.

"Concentrate, don't hold us back!"

"yes!"

The center of the battlefield.

Kro, with disheveled hair and a blood-soaked body, swayed unsteadily, struggling to even stand. The cat claw knife in his hand was also mostly broken.

At my feet were piles of pirate corpses.

And he will also face death.

Kro finally understood a principle.

The more cunning a person is, the more likely they are to fall into unexpected predicaments. The reason for the current situation is precisely his "shrewdness".

Therefore, he decided to give up thinking.

"I'm going to kill you all!"

Kro lowered his head and swayed.

That eerie posture instantly awakened the pirates' fear, freeing them from the hypnotic influence.

"Captain Crook!"

"No, please stop!"

"Please, please let us go! We had no idea what happened!"

"It was the first mate; he betrayed you!"

The pirates begged for mercy in terror.

However, Klose's swings became increasingly pronounced.

Whether it's his subordinates who betray him or the navy that's standing guard around him, they are all targets of his revenge.

He won't stop until his body breaks down!

"Die!"

A flash of cold light disappeared!

"Aaaaaah!!!"

The pirates screamed in agony, bloody gashes appearing all over their bodies as they tried to escape, but all around them were impenetrable shield walls and dark gun barrels.

There was nowhere to escape.

The moon seemed to have been stained blood.

When everything quieted down, all the pirates lay dead in pools of blood, leaving only Kuro on the desolate battlefield.

"I lost."

Kro raised his trembling hand, pushed up his non-existent glasses with his palm, and then fell straight to the ground.

"thump!"

After a brief silence.

"You won?"

The captains looked blankly at each other.

Has the nightmare that haunted Branch 153 truly been defeated by them?

Colonel Rhodes raised his longsword.

"We've won!"

Although the Black Cat Pirates experienced some internal strife and setbacks, there is no doubt that this war was a great victory for the 153rd Branch!

The 153rd Marine Division has finally defeated "Hundred Plans" Kuro!

"We've won!!!"

"Ooh ooh ooh!!!"

The marines raised their weapons and cheered.

Successfully defeating a pirate with a bounty of 1600 million is an extraordinary honor, even by the standards of the entire East Blue Navy!

Loya smiled, her tense nerves finally relaxing, followed by exhaustion and pain, and her body involuntarily leaned backward.

"So sleepy."

"Hey, Loya!"

-

The next afternoon, at the Sirob Manor.

Loya sat bolt upright in bed, his mind filled with images of his battle with Kro, the cat claw knives lying side by side, a sight that was suffocating.

By the way, it's over.

Loya wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, got out of bed, went to the bathroom next door, and vigorously washed his face.

"Phew~~"

I felt much more awake instantly.

Loya looked up at himself in the mirror. He was shirtless, with a mess of bandages wrapped around his chest like a rice dumpling, with a bow tied at the edge.

It's all flashy and obviously amateurish.

But it's good that I survived!

Not long after, Kaya entered carrying a medical tray and saw Loya standing by the window, and couldn't help but smile with surprise.

"Loya, you're awake!"

"Um."

Loya smiled and nodded, his eyes glancing at the medical tray that Kaya was holding.

Ointment, bandages, scissors

Good heavens, so it was you who tied me up like a rice dumpling!

Kaya put down the medical tray, then pulled Loya to sit down, happily unwrapping the bandages: "Loya, let me change your dressing."

"it is good."

Loya had his back to Kaya, and his face twitched occasionally.

hiss--!

Could you be gentler? I'm afraid of getting hurt!

Despite his discomfort, Loya asked.

"Where are Colonel Rhodes and the others?"

"I'm going back."

Kaya whispered, "Uncle Rod said he wanted to send the pirates back to the branch as soon as possible, so he took a warship back this morning."

"Understood."

Loya nodded slightly. Escorting the Black Cat Pirates was indeed very important. Rest and celebration could wait until they returned to the branch.

"Did Fempdick leave too?"

"Um."

"Then why am I still here?"

"."

I'm holding you back so you won't leave!

Kaya blinked and made up an excuse on the spot.

"Father said that the success of the Black Cat Pirates was mainly due to your efforts. You saved our family from a crisis, so he wanted to thank you and asked you to stay and recover first."

"Our home is quieter, and we have a maid and a cook. It's definitely a better place to recuperate than the branch office, right?"

"Don't worry, once you've recovered, your father will send you back to the branch."

Well-reasoned and supported by evidence, it's laughable.

Cunning girl!

Trying to fool you, Lord Loya, is far too presumptuous.

It seems my plan to marry a rich woman is progressing quite well, but I can't be too proud. I need to keep up the good work!

"Hey, Loya."

"Um."

"I've made up my mind, I want to be a doctor!"

"Doctor, why?"

"Hehe, because by becoming a doctor, when you get injured, I can treat your wounds and help you heal faster."

".,Thanks!"

If possible, it's best to avoid getting hurt.
