Chapter 137: The one who laughs last is the winner



Chapter 137: The one who laughs last is the winner

After reaching a cooperation agreement with Du Ge, Vito's daily flattery was reduced a lot. Unless it was necessary, his behavior was like a normal person, and he had a humble and pleasant personality.

In his words, it's like being fat but not calling it fat, and then being fat enough to crush the bed.

It was meaningless to brush attributes on several people. Instead, it would easily expose oneself and put oneself in danger.

After all,

One month later, the top ten ranking list would be announced. If the attributes were raised too high, it would turn oneself into a live target and be attacked by everyone.

It's easy to dodge a spear in the open, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow. No matter how high the attributes were, they couldn't withstand a war of attrition.

Slowly brushing up the attributes, integrating oneself into this world, until he became the second-in-command of a pirate king, then he would have power and the situation would be clear. The people who should jump out would have already jumped out.

By then, he could make a move to reverse the situation and rapidly increase his attributes, naturally securing a place in the top ten.

This was a typical academic approach, completely opposite to Du Ge's.

In Du Ge's mind, if his attributes didn't improve, he could be easily defeated by enemies at any time, leaving him with no sense of security.

He preferred to be ahead from the beginning, always leading, and then leaving everyone else in the dust...

It's hard to say who is right or wrong.

But undoubtedly, Du Ge's risk was higher.

...

After a night of rest, the Smiling Angel set sail again. When the pink pirate flag was hoisted, the morale of the crew instantly dropped.

The dazzling pink color, the skull with a flower crown, and the previously dark eye sockets now had two lifelike eyeballs painted on them, it was simply too cute...

Who wouldn't be scared if they went out with such a flag?

Vito looked at the pink pirate flag, dumbfounded for a moment, and remembered what happened last night. He lowered his voice and asked, "Captain, so, you are also a woman, right?"

"Where did you see that?" Du Ge looked at his new pirate flag with satisfaction, raised an eyebrow, and smiled back.

We even hung a pink flag!

Isn't it obvious?

Not only are you a woman.

You also have a cute little girl's heart!

Mature women wouldn't accept a pink flag, right?

If you're not a woman, then you must be a pervert!

Vito sarcastically commented in his mind, but his mood inexplicably improved a lot.

In the simulation field, women were not at an advantage to begin with. The women who stood out among all the candidates must have strong abilities, either special strength or super intelligence, just like her.

This should be stable!

...

"Captain, Antonio will block the route to Herd Island in two days. Should we avoid them first?" Barry forced himself to look away from the flag and came to Du Ge's side, asking with a serious face.

"Why should we avoid them?" Du Ge looked at Barry strangely. "Our goal is to become the Pirate King. Have you ever seen a Pirate King who escaped? We must participate in this battle, hone our will and combat abilities on the battlefield of iron and blood. Otherwise, what's the use of the immortality I obtained through memories? Just to go fishing in the sea?"

"But..." Barry wanted to say something.

He was interrupted by Du Ge, who waved his hand. "There's nothing to hesitate about. We are pirates, the most fierce pirates. We should be fearless and advance. Since we received the news in advance, we should take the opportunity to save those fellow pirates who were defeated by Antonio and strengthen our team."

The most fierce pirates?

Barry subconsciously looked at the pink pirate flag fluttering on the mast, and the corner of his eye twitched inexplicably.

"Also, we must find the witch Hoya as soon as possible and ask her about the whereabouts of the Trident of the Sea God," Du Ge said. "Otherwise, if any pirate learns about the Trident in advance and kills the witch, we won't get anything."

"No one can kill the witch," Barry said.

"You can't say for sure." Du Ge smiled and glanced at Barry. "Selma didn't even know how to ask for a child before! Don't worry, Barry, I'm not that foolish. If the battle really exceeds our expectations, we will hide on Herd Island and just watch the show without going out to sea..."

Do you believe what you just said?

Looking at Paul, who was full of lies, Barry was speechless and once again had the idea of retiring.

But this idea only flashed in his mind and then faded away. He then went to command the crew, raised the anchor, adjusted the control ropes, and set sail for Herd Island again.

...

Not long after setting sail, the Smiling Angel encountered two Du Fei family merchant ships that were in the same port as yesterday.

Perhaps it was the pink pirate flag that caught the attention of the Du Fei family merchant ships.On the merchant ship, many sailors ran onto the deck, pointing and laughing at the Smiling Angel. Some sailors even unzipped their trousers, making lewd gestures towards the Smiling Angel...

Seeing this, Vito spat fiercely to the side.

Through the telescope, seeing the actions of the sailors on Du Fei's merchant ship, Barry's face turned even darker. He shouted at the crew in frustration, "Adjust the sails, shake off these bastards..."

"Barry, why should we shake them off? We are pirates, they are merchant ships, shouldn't we rob them? Besides, they have insulted our dignity. All crew members prepare for battle, we are going to make a big move. The fame of the Smiling Angel starts with the Du Fei family."

Du Ge interrupted Barry with a smile. The moment the people on Du Fei's merchant ship laughed, he felt a significant increase in his attributes.

Obviously.

His pink flag brought joy to the other party, and that was enough.

Dignity or anything else, compared to the increase in attributes, was not important at all.

And, they would soon stop laughing.

"Paul, are you crazy? That's Du Fei's ship!" Barry widened his eyes, "If we rob them, we will be hunted down by General Mikaro, not to mention, they have two ships..."

"Lice don't itch when they're too many, debts don't worry when they're too many. We've already provoked Selma and Mahamadu, we don't care about one more Du Fei family. Barry, you're too timid. Don't forget, I have an immortal body, I'm not the weak Paul I used to be." Du Ge smiled, "Just get close to them, I'll take care of the rest. Vito, you'll be my deputy."

"Alright."

Vito agreed readily.

This was their agreed strategy. To attract Mahamadu's attention, they needed to have a record of battle. As pirates, they had to play the role of pirates well, at least to have a name on the bounty list.

Robbing Du Fei's ship was undoubtedly a fast track to fame.

Moreover, in the early stages of cooperation, he had to win Du Ge's trust.

Barry was stunned for a moment, recalling Du Ge's terrifying one-against-ten combat skills, his confidence inexplicably increased. Perhaps Paul was right, they were no longer the weak Giant Bird they used to be.

...

"What the hell are they doing?"

Seeing the Smiling Angel suddenly accelerate towards them, the sailors on Du Fei's merchant ship were stunned.

"If I'm not mistaken, there are only a dozen people on their ship, right?"

"You're not wrong, they do only have a dozen people." The sailor next to him shook his head and laughed, "These stupid guys, they must be first-time pirates, as stupid as their flag."

"Fellows, prepare for battle, let's send these clowns to hell, their existence is simply an insult to the pirate world." The first mate also didn't take the approaching Smiling Angel seriously. He pulled out his blunderbuss, "Yesterday, these guys looked like paupers, but their ship should be worth a lot of money. Gunners, don't fire, don't damage that ship, it's already our booty."

"Hahahaha..."

Accompanied by hearty and cheerful laughter, more than twenty sailors all drew their curved knives, ready for battle on the deck.

But when Du Ge leaped from the Smiling Angel onto their deck.

These people immediately stopped laughing.

Du Ge's movements were more agile than a monkey, his strength greater than a wild bull. Almost no one could last a round against him.

The battle ended in less than five minutes.

And that fierce guy, after knocking them down, had already leaped onto another ship, swiftly ending the battle...

...

Barry and the others were stunned.

They knew their captain was powerful, but they didn't expect him to be this powerful. He single-handedly took down two merchant ships of the Du Fei family. The effortless battle was even somewhat pleasing to the eye.

That was the Du Fei family!

They were rich!

The goods and half a box of gold coins on the Du Fei family's merchant ship dazzled the eyes of all the sailors on the Smiling Angel, and smiles crawled onto their faces.

Pirates are greedy, rough, and unrestrained. As long as they have enough money, they can swing their swords at God...

At this time, no one cared about the pink flag anymore.

Of course, no one cared about the Du Fei family either.

Du Ge proved his strength to everyone.

Now, every crew member on the Smiling Angel believed that they would definitely become the king of pirates.

Praise Paul!

Praise Selma!

The captured treasure brought unparalleled joy to the pirates.

Du Ge's attributes increased again.

The pink pirate flag, a robbery, double the joy, Du Ge was always the winner in life...
