Chapter 27 Ship Vs Ship... The Battle Starts.
Even though she was not in the perfect condition for a fight, Commander Haf bra knew that she did not have a choice in the matter.
Her face was somewhat Pale and under her eyes were sleep bags, but her gaze was still steady and her resolve was strong.
Eros took a look at her and nodded inwardly.
An indomitable woman was always beautiful to the eyes. They were like roses with thorns on their stalk. One was allowed to admire them, but plucking them could leave you injured.
Commander half bra's ship got closer to that of the Black eye pirates.
As she did, she noticed something aboard the ship of the Black Eye Pirates. "BATTLE STATIONS!!!" she yelled and the women immediately ran around as they got to their battle stations, ready for a fight.
However, there were a bit late.
Commander Half Bra had thought that she would at least be able to have a respectable conversation with commander Tender Eye before things go side ways.
It was always better to give the opportunity for peaceful negotiations before a fight.
They were pirates, but that did not men that they did not value their lives.
But the Pirates of the Black Eye were obviously not interested.
*Boom!*
A canon jerked backwards as it spat the metal flavor of its venom.
The attack had come from the Black eye pirates.
The shot went for one of the masts of the Red bra pirates.
The shot was unexpected and it took out the mast in one shot.
Then again, that mast had been damaged last night by the attack from the Shark man that could cultivate.
As it fell, so then the flag of the red bra pirates that was hanging high on it.
it also caused quite the commotion aboard the ship.
Commander half bra frowned, "FIRE!!!" she spat out the order and the canons on her ship let lose their venom.
Both ships continued their exchange of fire, at the same time.
It was totally chaotic.
Dan had been willing to see what a battle between pirates looked like. He had thought that it was going to be exciting. After all most boys his age thought so.
But after the loud bang that brought down the Mast in one shot, his thought concerning the subject changed entirely.
He ran to a corner to hide behind a barrel.
Eros saw this and gave a hearty laugh. Dan reminded him a bit about himself.
Many uncountable years ago, when the gods of war went on a raid to put the raging devils in line, they had pulled him along.
Back then, he had found a corner to hide from all the fighting.
However, that was many years ago. Right now, he was not the same person he was back then.
As time progressed and he continued following them to the battlefield, he got better and braver.
Thinking these far brought memories to his head.
he could not help but flash back at their faces and the smiles they gave each other back then.
And then the image of his memories changed to the moment of his betrayal. He remembered the look of envy and incredible greed on their faces.
He remembered as they stabbed him with their weapons.
His fist subconsciously clenched tighter as his anger climbed. He suddenly felt the need to quench a bit of his rage.
Meanwhile, at the same time, the Red bra Pirates Ship still advanced closer to the Ship of the Black Eye pirates.
The Red bra Pirate's ship rammed into the ship of the Black eye pirates.
Naturally, this caused more chaos to unfold between both ships.
What the Red bra pirates did was quite risky. The possibility of both ships going aground because of this was very high. However, the bow of the red Pirates ship was made for such a situation.
The next phase of the battle had started.
"CHARGE!!!" Commander Half Bra ordered and the women screamed war cries as they used ropes to invade the enemy's ship.
It was the same thing for the Black eye Pirates.
Sword clashed against sword, as those with cultivation displayed their soul energy and pushed forward.
In the chaos, no one noticed something.
Not Even Eros was aware of this. Normally, he would, but he had gone down memory lane and it had sparked his annoyance.
The Rage of a God was never one to be taken lightly.
The voice had started its loud calls again. And in the position Dan was, it was even louder than the screaming pirates, their guns and the clanging sounds of their swords.
And yet, it was still subtle and tender. Like a woman seducing her lover with a shy but alluring tone.
No one noticed but Dan's blue eyes suddenly had a new shade to them.
His pupils had become red like blood.
He suddenly stopped holding his head in between his legs like had been doing all along.
His face no longer carried a confuse on them. he fact, he had become very stoic.
His red pupils flicked from time to time, and then he looked in the direction of the black island just in front of them.
He suddenly stood to his feet like he had been possessed by some mysterious force.
Bullets passed. Flying Daggers and even the metal ball from a cannon. However, none of that touched him.
It was like he was in the centre of the battle but remained a spectator to the happenings all around him.
He walked to the edge of the Red Pirate ship. He suddenly looked down below, and then he jumped into the water.
He did not surface for some time.
And then at the shore of the island, he slowly came out of the water. He still had that blank expression on his face as he slowly advanced forward one foot at a time.
The uneven black rocks could not stop his advance, and truly, nothing could.
He walked into the black of a cave following the voice that called for him...
