“How is it? You’ve never ridden a condor before, right?”
Han Zhao chuckled and joked. He was in a good mood after killing Zhu Gangyi. Si Zhu was so obedient that she could serve him for a long time in the future. It was acceptable for her to ride an eagle once.
The second main option was too lame. He could not choose it. Otherwise, if he became an Armored Crocodile Turtle, she would have to ride on his head.
“Young Master is amazing!” Si Zhu’s face was filled with admiration as she let out the cheers of an inexperienced little girl.
“Hold on tight! I’m going to increase my speed!”
Han Zhao reminded. He found the right direction and suddenly began to accelerate.
“Ah!”
Si Zhu shouted happily.
Just like that, Han Zhao flew to the next island which would take half a day to arrive on the fast boat. In less than two hours, he arrived with Si Zhu.
At this rate, they would reach Fallen Phoenix Island in about two days.
Fallen Phoenix Island.
This was a large island that was a thousand miles away from the Long Forest River’s estuary, the Furious Flood Dragon Island. It was about a third of the size of the Furious Flood Dragon Island.
Because there was a dormant volcano in the middle of the island, it was rumored to have once been the place where the phoenix died, so it was named “Fallen Phoenix Island”.
Apart from the dormant volcano in the center, the surrounding terrain was relatively flat, densely forested, and fertile. It was very suitable to be a large stronghold and a port transit station.
However, because a few large pirate groups near the Jambu Sea had fought for the ownership of Fallen Phoenix Island for more than ten years, the outcome was still not decided. Instead, they paid a heavy price, allowing the Furious Flood Dragon Gang to suppress the pirates in the outer sea.
In the end, the strongest pirate groups, the Fierce Wind Pirates and the Flying Dragon Pirates, came forward to mediate. The pirates reached an agreement and this place was used jointly by all the pirates.
According to the scale of each pirate group and their actual contribution to Fallen Phoenix Island, the interests of various parties were divided.
As Fallen Phoenix Island was relatively close to the Furious Flood Dragon Island, in addition, the greatest advantage of pirates was that they came and went without a trace. Once they had a fixed stronghold, they would be easily annihilated. Therefore, this was a very risky action.
However, as long as the benefits were big enough, there would be people who would take any risk, not to mention that they were outlaws, to begin with.
Today, Fallen Phoenix Island was much livelier than before.
This was because today was a life-and-death battle between the pirate factions in the outer sea and the Furious Flood Dragon Gang.
If they won, the pirates would dominate the outer seas and even have a chance to encroach on the shipping on the Long Forest River. In the future, the
Furious Flood Dragon Gang would have to act according to their wishes.
If they lost, it would naturally be the Furious Flood Dragon Gang that would dominate in the future. When they saw the flag of the Furious Flood Dragon
Gang at sea in the future, they could only take a detour.
Thousands of elite pirates gathered here, waiting to be exhausted.
At this moment, at the front of the crowd stood ten martial artists in different clothes.
There were nine men and one woman. All of them had incomparably powerful auras. They were all top masters in the Grandmaster Realm.
The person in the lead was a tall and burly middle-aged man. He was an exaggerated two meters tall and had muscles all over his body. He stood there like an iron tower.
This person was the leader of the Flying Dragon Pirates, Li Yun. He was at the Three Qi Grandmaster Realm and was known as the Flying Dragon Hands. His body refinement technique was extremely ferocious. In addition, the flying dragon claws he cultivated were fierce and domineering. He was enough to match ordinary Four Qi Grandmasters. He was one of the top experts in the External Endless Sea.
Beside him stood an old man with the same burly figure. He was nearly 1.9 meters tall and had a long beard that reached his lower abdomen. He looked like a kind old man, but those who were familiar with him knew that this was all on the surface.
This person was the leader of the Fierce Wind Pirates, Bu Wushuang. He was a complete Four Qi Grandmaster. Once he used his family’s Fierce Wind Saber Technique, he was as fast and fierce as a violent wind sweeping away fallen leaves. People called him the Wind God Saber.
He was over 70 years old and was not at the peak of his blood qi.
However, he was still the person with the highest cultivation realm and strongest strength.
The two strongest island groups, the Fierce Wind Pirates and the Flying Dragon Pirates, each had two Grandmaster Realm experts. The other six Grandmaster Realm experts were all from other pirate groups.
In the External Endless Sea, only those with Grandmaster Realm experts could be considered a large pirate crew.
“Today is the day of the decisive battle. Why aren’t the people from the Furious Flood Dragon Gang here yet? Don’t tell me they’re afraid?” The only woman among the ten said.
Her clothes were revealing. Her chest, thighs, arms, and other exposed skin were all tattooed with the pattern of a poisonous snake. Although she looked gorgeous, she looked like a beautiful snake.
At this moment, it was the leader of the Startling Snake Pirates, Yu Ling. She was also the only female Grandmaster pirate who dominated the outer seas. “I heard that Shangguan Yunfei and Shangguan Lie were seriously injured when they fought for the dragon blood on Heavenly Pillar Mountain. Their whereabouts are unknown now. The reputation of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang has decreased greatly in the past year. Since they dare to take the initiative to find trouble with us, it means that the Furious Flood Dragon Gang wants to use the opportunity to encircle and suppress us to regain its prestige,” Li Yun said in a low voice.
“However, there’s something wrong,” Bu Wushuang muttered.
“Owner Bu, what’s wrong?” A Grandmaster beside him asked.
“Without Shangguan Yunfei and Shangguan Lie holding the fort, the Furious Flood Dragon Gang’s strength has decreased greatly. In terms of combat strength at the Grandmaster level, they are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers and strength.”
Bu Wushuang frowned.
“Indeed. Under such circumstances, why did they choose to fight us? I can’t figure it out either,” Li Yun replied. This was also the key to the problem.
“Isn’t that simple? I heard that the Furious Flood Dragon Gang is now the new Young Sect Master’s head. He’s just a little kid. Once he gains power, he’ll naturally forget himself,” Yu Ling teased.
“No matter what, let’s win this battle first.” Bu Wushuang nodded. No matter what the situation was, this battle was inevitable.
Everyone stood on the shore and waited. After a while, a fast boat arrived near the beach. A thin but agile figure stepped on the water.
“Boss.” The person flew in front of Bu Wushuang and bowed. It was the fifth head of the Fierce Wind Pirates, Wei Tianyi. He had reached the Greater Mastery stage of Force Tempering, but his “Bat Gliding Body” movement technique was perfected. Even a Grandmaster Realm martial artist could not catch up to him.
“The Furious Flood Dragon Gang’s warship has already appeared a hundred miles away. They’re driving over at full speed. They’ll probably reach Fallen Phoenix Island in an hour.”
“Alright, the first fleet, prepare to board the ship and fight!” Bu Wushuang immediately ordered.
“Yes!” The martial artists behind everyone quickly ran towards the warship parked at the dock.
‘Everyone, I’ll take my leave first.” Li Yun cupped his fists at everyone and set off with the team.
Immediately after, six more Grandmaster Realm martial artists left with him.
“Everyone, let’s do our best!” Bu Wushuang said solemnly.
In fact, facing a large warship like the Furious Flood Dragon Ship, they were at a disadvantage when fighting at sea.
However, unless he gave up on the Fallen Phoenix Island that he had operated for many years, he had to kill a portion of the Furious Flood Dragon Gang martial artists first before retreating to the island to fight on land..
