Pirates: It's not a mythical beast, it's a phantom god

Om-!

The Sanskrit sounds are clear and the Buddha's light is bright.

Before Zhan Guo gave the order to 'get out of the way', all the people on the warship fled to the stern or even directly into the sea. Now Zhan Guo had no worries and did not hesitate to use all his strength. The golden shock wave that almost condensed into substance instantly enveloped them.

[Success!]

buzz~

Violent vibrations came from all directions, and as Zhan Guo exerted further pressure, the spherical impact area seemed to explode inward.

“Buddha’s light saves the world!!!”

The rich golden light instantly filled the spherical impact of the Buddha, and then suddenly shrank to a diameter of several meters, and then the golden light inside began to burst out violently.

Zhan Guo's men seemed to be holding a sun, and the dazzling Buddha's light made everything on the battlefield seem to lose its color.

boom! ! !

……

"OK, successful?"

"General Zhan Guo defeated that scary golden imp?!"

"Finally, I can finally go back alive... woooo~"

The front half of the warship that had carried the Buddha's blow had completely disappeared, but the back half was intact.

Zhan Guo consciously concentrated all his power around La, so the warship at this time looked like half of it was erased by an eraser along an arc.

And La's figure also disappeared.

The naval soldiers and even officers who saw this scene felt like they had survived a disaster, and many of them even burst into tears without caring about anything else.

They were really afraid that they would be like those pirates, disappearing from this world without even being able to scream.

If that's the case, then my parents, my wife and children, my family...

The aftermath of the impact gradually subsided, and the sailors who jumped into the sea in advance finally got a chance to catch their breath.

"Sir, after I return this time, I...want to apply for retirement."

A soldier soaking in the sea said to the brigadier general beside him.

"Hmm? Retire? Haven't you been working hard to become a lieutenant general and want to revive the family?"

The brigadier general's words were clearly intended to retain him.

"..."

"That's true, but now I understand. I want to spend more time with my parents while they are still alive and while I am still alive."

"Really? That's a shame. You have good talent. In ten or twenty years, you could become a lieutenant general."

The brigadier general said regretfully.

"Sir, sir! What about me?"

A soldier who looked obviously more alert heard the conversation between the two and swam over like a doggy paddle.

"You~ I guess you'll be a soldier your whole life."

"Hey~ Why is it like this~"

"Why?"

"Because you almost ripped my pants off when the wave hit me just now!"

"Eh?! Pants, pants? Sir, I didn't mean to do that!"

"Sir? Sir?"

The Tiaotuo Navy called out twice, but the commander seemed to have suddenly become deaf and did not respond.

"What's wrong, sir?"

"Hey~ you said..."

"That golden creature has clearly been destroyed, so why is the Beasts fleet still floating in the sky?"

"Shouldn't it fall down?"

"Hey~ That's simple. It means the other party doesn't have... at all..."

The voice of Tiaotuo Navy became smaller and smaller, his face became paler and paler, and his eyes were fixed on the back of the Commodore.

"What's wrong? That expression?"

"I was just teasing you. You could have been promoted to Sergeant Major with your merit points when you returned this time."

"Then you can change out of this uniform you always complain about being ugly and wear clothes you like."

According to the internal rules and regulations of the Navy, once a rank reaches sergeant, one is no longer required to wear a uniform and can wear whatever one wants. However, one must reach the rank of lieutenant to be eligible to wear the coat of justice.

"Haven't you always wanted my deerskin jacket? I'll give it to you as a gift for your promotion when you get back."

"Sir."

"Ok?"

"Even though you may not have the chance to give it to me, and I may not have the chance to wear it, thank you anyway."

"Thank you for taking care of me over the years."

"Thank you."

As if he was wasting time, the navy officer put away his usual frivolous tone and expressed his thanks several times in a row as quickly as possible, which surprised the brigadier general on the opposite side.

"What's wrong? Why are you so serious all of a sudden?"

……

"Because when people face death, they often reveal their truest selves."

A voice of explanation came from behind him.

Untitled Chapter

I had something to do tonight, so I only wrote one chapter. I'll finish writing two chapters tomorrow and post them together.

Chapter 256 The Brave Man

"Because when people face death, they often reveal their truest selves."

A voice sounded from behind the Brigadier General.

Because the distance was too close, the pure sound with almost no distortion passed directly by the brigadier general's ears, making him uncontrollably dazed for a moment.

Sacred, ethereal, and warm... just like the first rays of warm sunshine in late winter and early spring. It is just an ordinary statement, but it makes people feel as if they are in a hymn of praise from the elves.

"—!"

The pupils suddenly contracted!

After a moment, the brigadier general broke free from his trance and turned back suddenly before fear caught up with him.

Although he was much taller than the other person, because he was a duck in the water while the other person was standing on the water, he needed to look up slightly to see the other person's face clearly.

"you you……"

The first thing that catches your eye is a touch of gold... golden hair, golden headdress, even the eyelashes are golden, emitting a dazzling luster in the sunlight.

Looking down, and meeting those jewel-like crimson pupils, the Brigadier General finally saw the true appearance of the man whom he regarded as the source of his fear.

Elegant and beautiful? Stunningly beautiful?

...neither is accurate.

It is difficult to describe this appearance with an accurate word. Perhaps compared to those gorgeous words, the simplest and most direct word "beauty" is most appropriate to describe it.

[Why?]

Why would I become an enemy of such a person?

Are we really right to stand against such people?

For some reason, an extremely absurd idea came to his mind. Realizing what he was thinking, the brigadier general quickly shook his head, forcing himself to return to a rational state.

wow~

He slid his arm across the sea and pulled out the sword hanging at his waist. The handle was completely soaked in sea water and felt a little slippery.

But this had no effect on him. After all, he was not good at swordsmanship. He drew his sword just to show his position and to draw La's attention to himself.

"Leave her to me, you two run!"

"quick!"

The brigadier general bit the tip of his tongue hard, using the intense pain to suppress his physical instinct to abandon the two and escape alone.

"Sir!"

"Go! This is an order!"

"Don't be such a nagging mother at this time!"

"..."

"Yes!"

This time there was only one response - the soldier who wanted to retire saluted one last time, then swam away without looking back.

As for the remaining soldier who was more frivolous and jumpy, he continued to doggy paddle twice and came to the side of the brigadier general.

"you--"

"Hey hey hey~ Sir, you know it."

The soldier interrupted his commander directly.

"I don't have any parents or relatives to take care of."

"I'm a bachelor, and if I'm well fed, the whole family won't be hungry."

"..."

The Brigadier General was silent, staring at the other's cynical, provocative face for a moment, then laughed and cursed with relief:

"Tsk~ you kid!"

"How many times have I told you to act like a soldier when you're a soldier?"

"Stop being so lazy and talking about 'I' all the time!'"

"How uncivilized!"

"Hey~ It's already this late, sir, please don't be so strict~"

Combing his rebellious braids back with the sea water, the soldier spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if he didn't care at all that death was right in front of him.

"Humph! What do you mean by 'now'?"

"You and I are still alive, aren't we? We don't have to die here today!"

"Hmm? Could it be that this kind-hearted little sister will show mercy and let us go?"

The frivolous soldier turned his head and spoke half-jokingly and half-expectantly to La, who had been standing quietly on the sea:

"If that's the case, I'll be hopelessly obsessed with you, Miss~"

"..."

"That's really funny, man."

Although they were still technically in the middle of a battle, La still quietly watched the drama between three ordinary people unfolding in a corner of the battlefield.

"One clearly wasn't afraid of death, but chose to flee because of his worries; the other was terrified to the extreme, but still chose to stay..."

"Since you have no worries and are not afraid of death, why do you choose to stay?"

"Because I want to stay."

It doesn't matter if the soldiers jump out.
