Pirates: Davy Jones is the captain of the Dread Ghost

Chapter 48 The naval battle in front of the upside down mountain
When the hazy fish belly white appears on the distant skyline, from the dark and tattered bow of the Horror Ghost, one can see the majestic red earth continent through the white mist dispersed in front.

The brick-red rock formations of the Red Earth Continent are stacked up, and the steep and rugged cliffs are like a magical dam falling from the sky, blocking most of the ocean currents from the East China Sea.

Arrita yawned, stretched out the monocular one by one, and looked forward through the magnified lens with blurry edges.

After a while, her eyes widened.

"Captain!" She turned around and ran to the door of Davy Jones's room, knocking on the door with some confusion. "I saw the navy flag, rows of warships, guarding the front!"

Arrita's knocking and shouting woke up the others in the cabin.

Bucky and Octopus Hachi both opened the door and walked into the long and narrow corridor, but Crowe appeared after meticulously applying oil to his hair.

"Navy?" Bucky raised his red nose, and the clown's face was full of panic. "I know it, I know it. The trouble is big."

He seemed a little unwilling to give up, and hurried past Arrita, and went to the bow of the ship to find out.

Octopus Xiaobaoliu's arms with suction cups were hugged together in pairs, with a confused expression: "What's the trouble? Let's jump into the water together and swim to the bottom of the sea. They can't do anything to us!"

Arrita rolled her eyes at Octopus Hachi and raised her hand to continue knocking when the door opened with a creak.

Davy Jones came out of the room wearing boots and smelling faintly of tobacco.

"Are you near the Upside Down Mountain on the Red Earth Continent?" Davy Jones lowered his head and looked at Arrita. After receiving a positive answer, he walked out of the cabin. "Let me see how many naval forces have arrived. .”

The mysterious "dragon" gave him an early warning, so when he stood on the bow of the ship and inspected the situation with a monocular telescope, he didn't have many surprises.

Bucky was pacing back and forth along the side of the ship. When he saw Davy Jones appearing, he walked over and spread his hands: "Captain, let's turn around. First find a small island and live there for a few months. When the storm passes, Shall we enter the Grand Line again?”

Davy Jones glanced at him with gray-blue eyes, and then said loudly: "Send the ship over. I don't want it in a few days, or a few months, but I want to enter the Grand Line today. Stop them if they can." I'm ready."

Bucky was stunned, his mouth half-opened, and speechless for a long time.

"Raise the flag and hoist the sails."

"Yes, Captain." Arrita, Crowe, and Octopus Hachi responded.

After a while, the black pirate flag floated among the black sails, dancing its tentacles like a living monster.

Bucky was so anxious that he held his head in his hands. He looked in the direction of Upside Down Mountain. From such a long distance, he could see densely packed warships waiting for them.

This scene was like a flash of lightning, taking him back to when he was a trainee pirate more than 20 years ago.

The pirate ship he was on also faced an entire fleet in this way, and the captain decided to start a war without hesitation. However, now that the time, place, and characters had been changed, he felt a strange sense of déjà vu.

Why am I so unlucky to meet such an unreliable captain wherever I go?

Bucky really wanted to shout at the sky to vent at this moment, but he had to face reality. If he didn't want to die, he had to prepare to use his cannon.

"Colonel Smog!" Dasqi stepped on the cracked stone steps and quickly climbed to the makeshift command platform on Upside Down Mountain. "There seems to be something going on."

Smoker, who was chewing two cigars, stopped his "smoking buddy communication" with Tina, who was holding a cigarette. He frowned and turned to look at the panting Dasqi who ran in front of him. .

"Don't panic." Smoker took off his cigar, "What's going on?"

"Suddenly there was heavy fog on the sea, and it was coming towards us, and there seemed to be a ship sailing in the sea fog. Colonel, look." Dasqi handed the telescope in his hand to Smoker.

Smoker looked down at the sea through the telescope, and sure enough he saw a vague black outline shrouded in a strange white fog.

He felt a thump in his heart and put down the telescope: "After waiting for three days and three nights, we finally waited for them."

"Are you sure it's Davy Jones' group?" Tina crushed her cigarette against the wall, "Don't make a mistake. Tina thinks you should be cautious."

"I think it's probably them. It's normal for fog to appear on the sea, but it's abnormal for it to move at such a fast speed in our direction." Smoker is a "smoke expert" and is very familiar with this.

"Not to mention, we started to announce the control of this area a week ago. Normal ships know that they have to go to Rogge Town to register first. How can there be ships coming from directions other than Rogge Town?"

Smoker handed the telescope to Tina and asked her to confirm it. Then he looked at Dusky: "Have you contacted Lieutenant General Garp? Where is he now?"

"I just contacted him. He said that he arrived in Rogge Town a quarter of an hour ago. After some supplies, he will be here soon." Dasqi adjusted his glasses.

"'Will be there soon'?" Smoker narrowed his eyes. "The day before yesterday, he said he would be there soon, yesterday he said he would be there soon, and today he said he would be there soon. When will they arrive?"

Dasqi said cautiously: "It is said that Lieutenant General Garp helped several villages and towns to destroy a pirate lair on the way, and there was a storm, so it was delayed for a while."

"What to do now?" Tina put down the telescope, "When Lieutenant General Garp gets here, Davy Jones and his gang will fly over the Upside Down Mountain under Tina's eyes."

"Start the extermination plan directly." Smoker said with a cold face.

"Are you crazy?" Tina's eyes widened. "Vice Admiral Garp is in Rogge Town. Are you going to overstep your authority? Are you afraid that the Navy Headquarters will cause trouble for you afterwards?"

"Hmph." Smoker sneered at the "Navy Headquarters", but he respected Lieutenant General Garp. "You go first, and I will apply to Lieutenant General Garp, and we will do both at the same time."

"Tina understands." Tina combed her long pink hair with her hands and strode away.

Smoker pointed at Dasqi again: "Continue to contact Lieutenant General Garp and report the situation here to Lieutenant General Garp. Explain that the situation is urgent and I need temporary command authority to command the operation immediately."

"Yes! Colonel!" Dasqi received the order and hurried to the liaison room.

pat.

Suddenly, a large raindrop fell on Smoker's face. He wiped it and then looked towards the sky.

Dark clouds rolled in like stormy waves, and the raindrops slowly turned into threads, connecting the sky and the sea. The storm suddenly rose, shaking the waves and rushing towards the red earth continent.

Amidst the strong wind, the rain gradually increased and became a torrential force. A black ship penetrated like a sharp blade from the heavy sea fog, completely exposed to the navy's view.

Its tattered sails and hull were repaired, and a pirate flag that had never been seen fluttered in the wind, exuding an unusually ominous aura.

"Here it comes." Smoker stared at it, then lowered his head to look at the sea.

At the bottom of the fork in the Shandong Sea, the navy warships spread out in a trumpet shape, and then dropped many wooden barrels towards the sea.

Five of these wooden barrels were connected together with iron ropes, and then floated along the ocean current toward the Upside Down Mountain to the fork in the road. They were stopped by an iron fence built in advance, blocking a large area of ​​​​the sea in front of the entrance.

The black ship sailed in front of us in the blink of an eye, and the warships surrounded it from the left and right sides, approaching and firing at the same time!
bang bang bang-

The sound of artillery fire was intensive, and the cannonballs roared all over the sky and were fired at the black ship. However, the black ship was stunned by such cross fire, and snaked through the gap between the impact points of the cannonballs!

"Damn..."

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Smoker would never have been able to imagine how such a heavy ship could make a trajectory like a dancer dancing on the tip of a knife.

He came up with such an attack formation just because of the previous intelligence. He didn't expect that even in this way, he would not be able to successfully hit the black ship.

So flexible, so flexible!
At this time, rows of cannon muzzles protruded from the left and right sides of the black ship, and all eight Bucky bombs that Bucky had created so far were fired out!

boom boom-

The eight beams of artillery fire proved the extraordinary power of the Bucky bombs. With the bows fired left and right, they penetrated the waves and destroyed eleven warships that were unable to dodge with terrifying bursts of fire!
