I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King

Chapter 2 The sea is not covered again

Sage always thought that this woman was the bandit leader nearby. After all, there were so many bandits here that one could encounter one per kilometer on average.

"It turns out not to be the case. I was thinking just now. She is very good-looking and has a temperament. Why doesn't she look like a bandit? It turns out she is a princess. Wait a minute."

Sage discovered the blind spot and looked at Lily: "You are the royal family, and the one who issued the reward is also the royal family. Does that mean... dog bites dog?"

"I'm not a dog!"

Lily's teeth were about to break, "He is! He is a traitor! He is a usurper, and he is the most evil person in the world!"

"Oh"

Sagar nodded and suddenly pressed her shoulders, causing her to deflect a little and continue walking straight.

Going astray.
"It took me three days to get here from the Royal City, but if you walk in a straight line, it won't take that long and you will get hurt again. Let's stay up all night and we will probably arrive tomorrow morning," Sager said.

Lily was stunned, what she wanted to say was stuck in her throat, and she just looked at Sage until half an hour later, she still couldn't help it.

"Aren't you curious?"

"What are you curious about?"

"Royal Bounty"

"Absolutely not."

Sager shook his head: "I want to be a wealthy landowner who exploits people, not a savior who wants to take care of everything. The main reason for asking your name is for commemoration. I am not interested in other things."

"You really are."

Lily sighed, "You don't look like a strong person at all."

"After all, I never think I'm very strong." Sage smiled.

Just because there are cheats doesn't mean you're invincible.

Even if he didn't quite remember the plot, he still knew the famous strong men in this sea.

That is an existence that can destroy heaven and earth at every turn.

Sarge was okay with dealing with people, but he couldn't do it to cause great damage to an island or even change the weather.

"Yeah."

Lily murmured, closed her mouth, and walked forward in silence.

There was obviously unwillingness on her face, but also more stubbornness.

Between the two of them, apart from silence, there was only the sound of footsteps as they walked.

Until the sound of more hurried footsteps broke the silence.

"stop!!"

Several men with knives came out of the woods and surrounded them. A tall man at the head said fiercely: "Hand over the money!"

These people were all in ragged clothes and disheveled faces. Although they were holding swords, their hands were obviously shaking and their eyes were hesitating.

Like this, Sage has seen many of their kind in the past few days.

Bandits.

Sage sighed and said faintly: "Let me tell you, do you think I have a pocket all over my body? How can I pay for it if I don't have a pocket? I'm poorer than you, at least you still have a knife." .”

"Come on, sir. The sword on your waist looks very expensive at first glance, and that woman looks like a noble, too!"

The bandit boss said fiercely: "Hand over the money, or I will kill you!"

"Boss, that's not right, look at that woman"

At this moment, a bandit came over, took out a reward order that looked very familiar to Sage, and compared it carefully with Lily.

"It's her! Boss, catch her and we'll have money!" the bandit said excitedly.

"A million Baileys!"

The bandit boss's eyes almost went straight as he pointed the big knife at Sage, "We want this woman, get out of here quickly, or I'll kill you!"

"don't want."

Lily suddenly spoke.

Whoosh!
At this moment, the Sage in front of them suddenly disappeared and turned into an afterimage that flashed in front of them.

The afterimage was extremely fast, and in just a split second, it was behind them again.

At this moment, whether it was the bandit boss raising his sword or the bandits with astonished expressions, they were all frozen at this moment, as if they had been petrified, completely motionless.

Sage turned around and walked up to the immobilized bandit boss and patted him on the shoulder, "Everyone is suffering. If you want to rob me, don't rob me. I still hope to rely on this woman to realize my dream."

As he spoke, he picked up the iron wine bottle hanging on the bandit's waist, opened the cap and took a sip.

"Tsk, this wine is really bad!"

Sage exhaled, "You will be able to move in half a day. Be careful next time. Taking someone away also depends on your strength."

Only then did Lily automatically walk up to Sagar, pursed her lips, and said softly: "Thank you."

"I'm just not interested in Kuhaha. They are all poor people and there is no reward. There is nothing to deal with."

Sage asked: "In your country, there is the treasure of the Bandit King?" Lily was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said: "I have never heard of any rumors about the treasure."

"Without treasure, how could there be so many bandits?" Sage said.

Lily looked sad and whispered: "The taxes are too heavy and the citizens can't survive. They have no choice but to become bandits."

"Ah?" Sage was stunned for a moment.

"Don't you understand?"

Lily said excitedly: "They can't afford the heavy taxes, so..."

"So there is no cover on the sea. If the local area cannot survive, just go to sea."

Sage said: "I have never heard that the Kingdom of Oykot prohibits people from going to sea."

He is a typical person who only goes to sea when he can't survive. As long as there is still money left for him to use, he may still be thinking of ways to start a business.

Lily's eyes suddenly opened wide with such a look of surprise that even Sage was startled.

"You haven't thought about it, right?" Sage asked strangely.

In the Age of Great Pirates, people went to sea for various reasons, and the majority were those who could not survive.

People here would rather be bandits than go to sea?
The East China Sea is not a great sea route. The climate here is so normal that a child can build a raft and go out to sea.

If you can't survive, just leave.

"Go to sea."

The girl's eyes widened for a moment, but then lowered, and she said: "There was a pirate war in the Kingdom of Oiket. Everyone hated those who went to sea and would not go to sea easily."

……

Biendetta Lily, now sixteen, is the royal princess of the Ouikot Kingdom and the next heir to the kingdom, if nothing else happens.
Ouikot is a war-torn country, especially after the navy and pirates fought a war here more than 20 years ago. It has never been stable. It was not until Lily's father became the king that the country got better.

It's just that Lily's father died in an accident when she was born, and the improved situation naturally disappeared and became as corrupt as before. And her mother not only failed to find a way to turn the tide when the kingdom was in chaos. , instead found a new husband and became Lily’s ghost stepfather!

Lily's mother also died not long after her second marriage. The stepfather used the excuse that she was still young to naturally take the name of the Biendetta family, became the king, took over the chaotic situation, and then became Even more messy!
He can't be said to be a talented person, at least he doesn't do things well.

In short, under his rule, Ouikot became more and more chaotic, with bandits running rampant and bandits everywhere. Such a chaotic environment lasted for more than ten years.

Lily grew up in this environment, and she had a strong desire to save the country, so one day six months ago, she brazenly assassinated the usurper.
Then she was put on a bounty.

Then, he was caught by Sage.

"You are quite unlucky." Sag looked angry.

"You" Lily's heart moved when she saw his unworthy expression.

Is he willing to help himself?

"A royal princess, or a royal princess who assassinated the king, is only worth one million Baileys." Sage said angrily: "No matter how you say it, it's worth ten or twenty million!"

Is this what bad luck means?

Lily couldn't help rolling her eyes, but the impulse in her heart came out strongly at this moment.

Maybe this man can
"Stop." Sage suddenly stretched out his hand.

Lily was stunned, "I didn't say anything."

"Your eyes are full of stories, and what I don't like the most is hearing stories."

Sage waved his hand, "You just want me to help you regain the throne, or help citizens go to sea. What a heavy tax, it's overwhelming. I don't have that kind of free time, and your family is not the only one who has suffered on the sea. , I’m suffering too, why don’t you help the person in front of you first, and let me capture you first to receive the reward.”

He had finally started his career as a bounty hunter, but he still had to rely on this woman to get the first shot!

Seeing this, Lily also closed her mouth and stopped talking.

The two of them walked quickly and disappeared silently into the forest.
……

The next day, before the sun was close to the center, Sag took Lily to the royal city.

The royal city of Ouikot is a medieval town in the 17th and 18th centuries. However, the town is very clean. The streets are lined with rows of colorful two- and three-story buildings with many shops. There is also a large square in the city center with a The tall bell tower, higher than the city wall, is Ouikot's landmark building.

If you didn't see the bandits all over the mountains and plains, it would be a peaceful town.

After taking Lily into the royal city and reporting to the soldiers guarding the city, the soldiers took Sagar and Lily to the palace.

Originally, Sage had made various preparations. This princess was very beautiful and had a strong desire to save the country, so she should be quite popular.

For example, when the city guards saw the princess, they wanted to hold a knife against Sage, and when the citizens saw the princess, they frantically stopped him. This kind of plot where a princess of a country is hated by others did not happen.

But everyone followed with great interest to watch the fun.

Until they reached the huge steps leading to the palace, Sagar finally couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you a princess? This posture doesn't look like I know you."

"I have never left the palace."

Lily, who had been silent, finally spoke. She stared at the huge steps and said in a deep voice: "I have been controlled in the palace since I was a child. Naturally, no one knows me. Everyone in the palace is that man's subordinate. I know I heard all the news from them!"

Sage also looked towards the steps. On the huge empty steps, a group of figures gradually appeared.

Divide into two groups.

One group is Ouikot's kingdom soldiers, guarding one person, and the other group is a group of marines wearing white uniforms.
