Chapter 533 The Purple Pearl Pirate Crew, The Demon Soul Great White Shark
Having successfully captured the Dragon Abyss Boat, and with the city lord of Hanhai City hearing that King Zhaowu, Wang Dong'er, needed ships to go to Seagod Island, he immediately began preparing official warships.
As a coastal city, Hanhai City is not only home to fishermen with boats; the city lord's warships are far superior to fishing boats.
Moreover, he did not send just one warship, but planned to send ten ships together.
It was Wang Dong'er who took the initiative to request a reduction in the number.
The more people there are, the harder it is to move around.
In the end, only one warship was dispatched.
However, the crew, captain, and other personnel were all in place.
The ocean is different from the land, and sea spirit beasts are generally much stronger than land spirit beasts.
Ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, which are rarely seen on land, may be relatively easier to find in the ocean.
The city lord of Hanhai City prepared a gray ironclad warship, which was already quite formidable in its defenses, and its size was enormous compared to the various fishing boats and other vessels around it.
Among the hundred or so ships nearby, the largest was only twenty meters long, while this ironclad warship was fifty meters long and more than twenty meters wide.
Warships are naturally used for combat, so they are not luxurious inside. The city lord of Hanhai City originally wanted to gather craftsmen to modify the warships as quickly as possible, but Wang Dong'er stopped him.
They didn't come here to enjoy themselves.
Soon, the armored warships weighed anchor and set sail.
None of them, including Wang Dong'er, had ever been to a coastal city like Hanhai City before, let alone experienced the sea firsthand.
Since everyone here is a Soul Master, and no one gets seasick, the girls quickly gathered on the deck to enjoy the sea view.
After leaving the coastline, the salty smell in the sea breeze faded considerably, and everyone felt an inexplicable sense of peace as they were caressed by the cool sea breeze.
The ship is equipped with various supplies prepared by the Lord of Hanhai City, and has a special freezer and ice-attribute soul masters to keep them fresh.
However, the captain did not use all land-based ingredients for the first meal. Instead, half of the dishes were made with seafood such as sea fish and crabs. The sea spirit beasts in the ocean have a strong sense of territory, so the warships of Hanhai City all have a detailed sea chart, which records in detail the sea spirit beast overlords in various near-shore waters.
Most sea spirit beasts rarely attack ships on the sea surface; only some with volatile tempers will attack them on their own initiative.
This warship belongs to the official Hanhai City, so Wang Dong'er and her companions will not be taken away by a pirate and disturb the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's sleep, as in the original story.
However, she still sought out the captain and inquired about the pirates.
Upon hearing King Zhaowu inquire about the pirates, the captain immediately began to speak eloquently: "There is only one pirate group in the waters around here, and that is the Purple Pearl Pirate Group."
"The Purple Pearl Pirate Gang has absorbed almost all the smaller pirate gangs, forming a huge organization with quite a few Soul Masters among its members."
"We also have no information about the mysterious pirate captain, Purple Pearl. All we know is that she is a female Soul Saint, and the entire pirate crew makes a living by plundering."
"Moreover, they usually only plunder nobles, while ordinary fishermen pay ocean taxes. They don't kill people very often, and they always escape very quickly."
"Most importantly, we don't know exactly where their base is, so it's very difficult for us to organize an effective strike force."
"You don't know where the base is?" Wang Dong'er asked thoughtfully. "Didn't you try to send someone infiltrate?"
"I don't know," the captain shook his head. "Even if we're dealing with the Purple Pearl Pirates, that's the city lord's business. We're just his subordinates; how can we concern ourselves with such things?"
After a few leisurely days, looking out from the deck, the outline of Poseidon Island was already close at hand.
The captain warned Wang Dong'er, "Your Majesty, further ahead lies the territory of Seagod Island. If any foreign ships enter this area, they will be attacked by the island's guardian beasts. Although our warship is stronger than ordinary ships, it will still be difficult for us to pass through here. Please be careful, Your Majesty and your companions."
"It's okay, this is fine, we'll get there ourselves from here." Wang Dong'er waved her hand.
Ning Rongrong asked curiously, "What exactly is this guardian beast of the island?"
The captain explained, "This guardian beast of the island is a shark soul beast with a cultivation level of 100,000 years."
"Moreover, it is the most ferocious and aggressive Demon Soul Great White Shark among the shark soul beasts."
"In the sea areas we have explored, apart from this guardian beast, there are only records of 100,000-year-old soul beasts appearing in the deep-sea demon whale and evil tiger whale groups."
"However, the Soul Great White Shark is a soul beast with a huge appetite. Since the island is protected by this guardian beast, the island is home to a group of Soul Great White Sharks. So, about every half month, the guardian beast will lead its group out to hunt for about three days each time."
"However, we only heard this from our elders, so we don't know if it's true or not."
"But one thing is certain: we must not harm any of the Demon Soul Great White Sharks, otherwise we may be attacked by the entire Demon Soul Great White Shark clan."
"Isn't this just the Ocean Gang?" Wang Dong'er said casually.
"What is it?" Qian Renxue turned her head and asked.
"It's nothing, just a description," Wang Dong'er replied.
Great white sharks are generally solitary creatures, but spirit beasts are clearly different; they live in groups, perhaps because they possess higher intelligence.
During their days at sea, the captain also mentioned other sea creatures, such as the Deep Sea Demon Whale and the Evil Orca.
According to the captain's description, the leaders of the Deep Sea Demon Whale clan believed that the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who was only a "100,000-year-old soul beast," was a lazy person who only knew how to open his mouth wide in the sea and wait for food to go in by itself.
As for the Demon Orca clan, they are not as Zen-like as the Deep Sea Demon Whale.
However, this was the first time Wang Dong'er had heard such descriptions as "the fiercest" and "the most aggressive" from the captain.
"Alright, you can go back now," Wang Dong'er said.
"Your Majesty, do you not need us to clear the way for you?" the captain asked.
Even before setting sail, he had already received a generous reward from the Lord of Hanhai City. If he died, his family would be properly taken care of, so he worked very hard.
"No need." As she spoke, Wang Dong'er took the Dragon Abyss Boat out of her storage soul tool.
As her soul power was poured into it, the Dragon Abyss Boat transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the sea, instantly returning to its original form.
The Dragon Abyss Boat looks crystal clear, as if it were carved from crystal, and its surface has a faint white halo.
