If this cooperation fails due to a temporary conflict, Noxus will be in a passive position in the future. Demacia will definitely not miss this opportunity to kick someone when they are down.

Cassiopena didn't believe the important figures at Castle Black weren't aware of such a crucial causal relationship. If they were, why did they choose her sister as the diplomat?

Forget it.

Cassiopena took a deep breath. Now that the matter was settled, she could only hope that her sister would complete the mission successfully. All she had to do now was capture Bilgewater.

Taking this port city wasn't about personal vendettas between Gangplank and Noxus, but rather a long-term plan. If they could control Bilgewater, Noxus's future territory would surely expand even further.

By then, we can attack or defend Demacia, and there is no need to waste time and effort to bypass the Twisted Forest.

After calming down, Cassiopena asked again, "How's the situation in Ionia?"

"According to the intelligence, it's very bad." Tyrone said expressionlessly, "The eastern and western fronts were originally advancing rapidly, but when they merged on the central front, our men encountered the young rebel leader. The Fourth Legion was completely annihilated in a direct battle, and the Second and Third Legions were forced to retreat to the vicinity of Silent Hill."

"Damn it!" Cassiopena clenched her fists, veins bulging on the backs of her hands. "I've repeatedly stressed that attacking Ionia at this time is unwise. Why are you still rushing forward? Who ordered this? Darius?"

As Darius was the commander-in-chief on the front line, Cassiopeia naturally thought that Darius should take the blame.

"No." Tailong shook his head and said, "It's my king."

"Stupid!" Cassiopena clearly had no respect for the Black Castle King and bluntly said, "Giving such a foolish order without even a tactical plan. It's time to replace that damn old man!"

970 Not in vain

Rebellious.

In every sense, Cassiopena's words were treasonous. As a subject, and a noblewoman of Noxus, she brazenly mocked their king, clearly demonstrating a lack of respect for her father and her king.

But Tyrone beside her seemed accustomed to this, and even nodded in agreement, saying, "It is indeed a bit foolish. I'm afraid he will no longer be the king at the next Black Castle meeting."

The tone was very firm, even with a hint of contempt.

If these words were heard outside, it would definitely cause a huge uproar. Even though Noxus was an aristocratic republic unlike traditional countries, the king's status was no different from that of the supreme leader in other regions.

To overthrow the king of Noxus, it usually requires a joint impeachment by all the nobles.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in history. The famous tyrant Jerte was impeached and removed from office. The initiators of Jerte's impeachment were none other than the five major families of Noxus, including the current king.

Now, is history about to repeat itself?

But if you think carefully about what the old king of Nokeas has done recently, it's actually not surprising.

The bitter battle against Demacia and the expedition to Ionia left the nation depleted and the people destitute. It would have been fine if they had won these two wars, but they lost miserably.

They had achieved nothing against Demacia, were nearly annihilated, and were ultimately forced to sue for peace. And now, this war route with Ionia has also resulted in heavy losses.

Having caused such great losses to all of Noxus, the corrupt old king must be blamed. After the battle is over, the Black Castle Council is very likely to impeach him.

But this should only be a possibility, but Tyrone seemed very sure of it, which was obviously not normal.

"I can say this, but as the commander of the secret guards, you shouldn't show it." Cassiopena reminded.

The so-called secret guards were supposed to be a special unit directly under the king. But Tyrone was being so presumptuous towards the king, which was clearly very wrong.

"My loyalty has never been to any one person or country." Tailong's expression was calm, without a trace of emotion. "You should have known this a long time ago."

"Yes, I know." Cassiopena's smile widened, as if she had thought of something. "That's why I'm so confident in you approaching me."

"Second Miss, there's news from the messenger eagle." A guard in iron armor walked into the cabin.

"I see. Did you find it?" Cassiopena took the message from the other party and opened it, a bright smile on her face. "That's really great."

"So, we are going to turn the ship around now?" As the other party's confidant, Tyrone obviously knew why the other party was so happy.

"No, that's not necessary." Cassiopena shook her head and chuckled, "He's just a pirate leader. Let's get rid of him first."

The black warship braved the wind and waves, sailing rapidly towards the Bay of Bones.

At this moment, in the mountain stream, Xiaonan in white clothes slowly appeared in Planck's eyes.

"Oh, it's you, the woman, who is looking for me?" Planck asked with a grin, playing with the rifle in his hand.

"Planck, the disaster of the ocean, is a little uglier than I remembered." Xiaonan said with a calm expression and a steady tone.

This impression of hers is the impression in the kitten's mind. After all, the characters in League of Legends are virtual characters, so they are naturally somewhat different when translated into reality.

"Hey, you little bitch!"

"How dare you call our boss ugly?"

"Our boss is clearly mighty and majestic!"

"You don't deny the fact that the boss is ugly..."

Hearing Xiaonan's words, the pirates present began to chatter. Meanwhile, Gangplank, sitting on the throne, had a gloomy expression on his face. He said coldly, "Interesting! You don't seem to be afraid of death, do you?"

"There are many people in this world who can kill me." Xiaonan raised his head slightly and smiled, "But I'm afraid you are not worthy."

"I'm not worthy?" Planck narrowed his eyes and stood up. His expression was a little doubtful, as if he was wondering what the other party was relying on.

Not far away, the bound Drizzt and Graves also breathed a sigh of relief. They had already assumed that the woman before them must have already planned to kill Gangplank.

Drizzt had been absolutely certain of escaping, but his idiotic friend was likely to die here. If possible, he still hoped the other party would be spared.

"Yes, you don't deserve it." Xiaonan walked forward on his own, his eyes seeming to completely ignore the vigilance of the pirates around him.

"Are you trying to scare me?!" Planck snorted coldly, raised the musket in his hand, and pointed the muzzle at Xiaonan's forehead.

"No, no!" Suddenly, a shrill howl rang out. "Boss, a big ship broke into our territory! And, it killed Bras!"

Ok?

Gangplank's pupils suddenly contracted, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. At this moment, the long sword in Xiaonan's hand suddenly unsheathed, and the sword light burst out.

Damn!

Planck instinctively sensed something was wrong, so he grabbed the little pirate beside him and pushed him forward, while he himself rolled to the side.

puff.

The unfortunate little pirate had his head chopped off in an instant and fell to the ground.

"I didn't expect that you could actually dodge it?" Xiaonan's eyes showed some surprise.

You know, even though she didn't use her sword to her full potential, it was at least 40% or 50%. In the Naruto world, even a strong man like Uchiha Madara would be killed instantly, but Gangplank was able to dodge it?

This guy is indeed extraordinary.

of course.

This wasn't to say that Gangplank was stronger than Madara Uchiha, but rather that his alertness and agility were probably even greater than Madara Uchiha's. Or perhaps, he possessed some special ability to sense danger.

But no matter what, this ocean disaster is indeed not in vain.

971 First to Arrive

(Happy New Year!)

"Kill her for me!" Planck, who survived the disaster, was shocked and angry, and shouted loudly to the pirates around him.

As a pirate king who has ruled Bilgewater for more than a decade, the pirates under Gangplank are indeed loyal to him.

Seeing their boss nearly killed by the stinky woman in front of them, they immediately became furious. Some pulled out their flintlock rifles, some drew their scimitars, and some simply rushed forward with their bare hands.

"Be careful!" Sarah warned loudly, the musket in her hand already emitting flames.

Bang bang.

The two unarmed pirates who were closest to him suddenly fell to the ground, and a big hole appeared between their eyebrows.

However, her musket couldn't fire continuously, so after killing the two pirates who approached, she needed to reload. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the remaining pirates quickly approached.

"Oh no, let's retreat first." Sarah's face changed drastically and she shouted at Xiaonan.

"No need." Xiaonan shook his head, his expression calm. He twisted his wrist around the longsword and swung it out. "They're just a bunch of small fry."

puff.

The sword light burst out and the sword energy was everywhere.

Several sword energies shot out in all directions like white silk threads, hitting the crowd directly.

Plop, plop.

The pirates around him fell one after another like harvested wheat seedlings. Their bodies were visibly broken into several pieces, with their limbs and organs scattered everywhere.

Choking.

Xiaonan put the sword back into the sheath, his expression still calm.

silence.

Skeleton Bay was almost completely silent at this moment, with only the intermittent sound of the distant tide coming through.

grunt.

Sarah, Trist and Graves all swallowed when they saw this scene, and looked at Xiaonan with a little fear and shock in their eyes.

They had originally thought this woman had a backup plan in mind for her boldness in coming to the Bay of Bones, but they hadn't expected her to be the backup plan herself? Such terrifying swordsmanship was probably no less impressive than that of the Ionian swordsman.

The other two might not have known the sword master's power, but Drizzt had seen the renowned sword master before, twenty years ago, when he was still a child.

At that time, Drizzt was wandering in Ionia, and it happened that the first Noxian expedition took place. Three thousand black-armored soldiers were approaching Middle-earth, and they were about to break through the defenses.

The only one who could resist these three thousand black-armored soldiers was the Wuji Sword Saint and his sword.

The end result was the complete destruction of the Black Armored Soldiers, and the old Sword Master disappeared without a trace. Regardless of where the old Sword Master went, the scene left a huge shock to the young Drizzt.

At that time, Drizzt had long considered the old swordsman his idol. He even had a longsword specially customized for him and visited many famous teachers hoping to learn powerful swordsmanship.

But the final result was regrettable. He was not cut out for it. After years of studying, he hadn't even mastered the basics of kendo, and instead, his deception skills became increasingly sophisticated.

Finally, under the pressure of life, he chose to change his career.

Today, seeing a powerful swordsman like Xiaonan in action brought back memories of his sword training days. It was quite interesting, come to think of it.

of course.

As the mastermind behind everything, Xiaonan paid no attention to Drizzt's current sentiments. She stared at Gangplank in front of her, gradually approaching. "Aren't you planning on surrendering?"

"You, what exactly are you trying to achieve?" Even though Gangplank had experienced many ups and downs, he was still a little frightened by Xiaonan. His body stiffened and he began to back away, his expression changing from gloomy to bright.

"It's nothing, I just want a good girl to get revenge." As Xiaonan said this, he looked at Sarah.

The stalwart bounty hunter was stunned, his expression filled with disbelief. "You, you're planning on... handing him over to me?"

"I can't just leave it to you like this." Xiaonan smiled slightly and unsheathed the sword in his hand again.

puff.

The sword flashed, and Gangplank's pupils shrank as he tried to dodge, but the next moment he fell to his knees. Veins bulged on his face, but he couldn't move at all.

His tendons in his hands and feet had been cut by Xiaonan, and he had become a complete cripple.

"This is safer." Xiaonan looked down at him and said lightly.

"Thank you!" Sarah gave Xiaonan a deep look, then stared at Gangplank with a look of deep hatred. "Damn it, you have come to this?"

"Bah, did you know me before?" Even though his body was unable to move, Planck still hadn't lost his ferocity.

He actually had a life-saving trump card, but now he wasn't sure whether to reveal it. The woman with the sword was too intimidating for him, and he wasn't sure if his trump card would be of any use to her.

"Mills Blacksmith Shop, do you still remember it?" Seeing that her revenge was achieved, Sarah no longer hid her identity.

Plank finally understood and sneered, "So that's how it is. You're that bitch's daughter?!"

"Goodbye." Sarah knew the man was trying to provoke her before his death, but she remained remarkably calm. She pointed the rifle at Gangplank's forehead, her index finger on the trigger.

Bang.

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard.

Sarah shuddered unconsciously, and flames spurted out of her musket. However, her shot went astray, originally aiming for Gangplank's head, but now it hit him in the chest.

The musket's powerful force pierced Gangplank's lung. The pirate leader, known for his savagery of Bilgewater, spat out a large mouthful of blood and fell stiffly into the sea.

Boom.

Before Sarah could even glance down to check on the other party's condition, the pirate ship beneath her feet suddenly exploded. Thick smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring the entire sky.

When the smoke and dust cleared, a terrifying black warship gradually came into view of everyone present.

Aboard the battleship, Cassiopeia held her wine glass in one hand, gazing at Konan and Sara with admiration. "It seems we've gone to great lengths. I didn't expect someone would get there first."
