Whoosh!
A golden light flashed, and the front of the third card was revealed: a mustachioed man wearing a pirate captain's hat, carrying a musket as thick as an arm in his left hand, and clenching his fist on his chest with his right hand. The entire fist was bigger than his head.
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the follower: Gangplank the Saltwater Scourge! He will descend onto the Host's ship in ten seconds. This follower can be decomposed at any time. Decomposing will grant: 1000 Holy Light Points."
"Gangplank the Saltwater Scourge?" Grimm was a little disappointed, but it was okay. Although he wasn't lucky, he wasn't unlucky either.
At this time, a man's voice that sounded very fierce rang out: "Is this my ship?"
Where did this guy come from? Looking at the suddenly appearing mustachioed man, Grimm was startled. This guy seemed to appear out of thin air in front of him. He looked the same as in the card. If there was anything different, it was that he looked very dirty and greasy, as if his clothes were covered in sticky sea breeze and salt.
On his left waist was a retro musket as thick as an arm, and on his right waist was a half-meter-long scimitar - the legendary Bilgewater Cutlass.
He wondered if this guy's equipment could be combined - Hextech Gunblade!
"No, you stinky pirate, this is my ship!" Grimm nodded solemnly, looking at Gangplank.
"Heh heh heh!" Gangplank chuckled sinisterly: "Kid, do you know who you're talking to? I'm the Saltwater Scourge. Be careful, I'll stick my scimitar in your mouth, then mince your intestines and sink your corpse into the sea! If you don't want to die, you little shit, shut your little tender mouth that doesn't even have hair, and quickly find me two bags of oranges. I'm thirsty!"
So fierce! As expected of a heinous stinky pirate, he started cursing as soon as he came!
"Gangplank, if you keep acting like this, I'll decompose you and send you back to that small black room," Grimm said without any politeness.
"Boss, what are your orders?" Gangplank immediately said with a smile.
"Introduce yourself first, what are you good at, what's your current strength, and how many skills do you have!" Grimm looked at Gangplank with anticipation.
Gangplank rolled his eyes: "Boss, I'm not interested in that!"
"Go to hell, what are you thinking? As expected, you people from Summoner's Rift are all gay! I'm telling you to introduce yourself, understand?" Grimm snapped.
"Okay, okay, Boss, I'll introduce myself right away." Saying this, Gangplank lowered his hat, and a fierce light appeared on his face again.
Grimm thought he had misheard, because he actually heard very rock-and-roll BGM in his ears!
"Yo yo, check it out, a set of jianbing guozi, I'm a pirate, my aura is like a tsunami, wherever there's a fight, I'll be there to fire my cannon, heh heh heh heh I'm the Saltwater Scourge, GPGangplank"
As Gangplank rapped, the deck suddenly cracked open, and three black giant cannons appeared behind Gangplank. At the same time, spotlights shone down, and Gangplank fired a shot into the sky, full of momentum.
Grimm covered his face: "You're so old, why are you pretending to be a hip-hop kid?"
...
Somewhere in the North Sea, just as Grimm was recruiting Gangplank.
"What's that ship?" A navigator from a pirate crew stood on the lookout post at the top of the pirate flag pole, looking at a slowly sailing ship in the distance with binoculars.
There were no flags indicating its identity on the mast. Usually, such ships were just civilian ships. What caught his attention was that the ship was too broken. There was a huge hole in the hull, and even the most important ship's mainsail had many holes!
If it were at night, it would definitely scare people to death. It was completely a ghost ship.
"Captain, there's an unmarked broken ship two kilometers away! It should be something left behind after being looted by other pirates!"
"Hmm?"
The pirates below, who were originally drinking and chatting, immediately looked in the direction he said when they heard the navigator's words.
There was indeed a black dot constantly moving towards them.
The captain took a sip of beer and crushed the glass in his hand: "It's been looted, huh? It doesn't matter. It didn't sink after all, which means there should still be other people or things on board. Speed up and go forward, and loot the things on it!"
At this time, Grimm was handing a map to Gangplank, "I want to go to the Grand Line. Help me plan a route!"
"Got it, Boss. That's what I do. There's no problem with route planning, but Boss, do you think our ship will really not sink into the sea?" Gangplank looked at Grimm very seriously, with an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"
"Someone will send us a ship!" Grimm sat leisurely in a chair. He didn't let Gangplank steer the ship immediately, but let the ship drift with the sea breeze. This way, he could attract pirates who didn't know what was good for them.
It didn't matter if it was a broken ship. If they saw a ship, they would rob it. That was a pirate.
"Roar roar!"
As the ship got closer, Grimm could hear the shouting of a group of pirates. Grimm really didn't understand these pirates. Why were they so excited about robbing a broken ship?
Looking to the left, Grimm and Gangplank both saw that a pirate ship with a skull logo with a huge scar on its left face was very close.
To plunder, they naturally couldn't use cannons to blow up the ship.
In normal circumstances, pirates would try to board the ship, then kill everyone, loot the supplies, and finally sink the ship.
The Navy, on the other hand, would start firing cannons as soon as they came.
To be honest, fighting with cannons was very boring. Because this pirate ship avoided a boring cannon battle, Grimm liked him very much.
"Boss, should I go cut out their kidneys?" Gangplank was eager to try, wanting to board the other pirate ship.
"No, we'll wait here. I don't want to damage a new ship because of the aftermath of the battle!" Grimm said his thoughts. "After they board this ship, I not only want you to cut out their kidneys, but also kick their balls! The Holy Light has abandoned those idiots!"
Grimm wanted to test Gangplank's combat power.
When the ship was less than twenty meters away from Grimm's ship, countless pirates on the opposite ship swung over with ropes, like Tarzan.
But this was indeed a common operation used by pirates who weren't very strong to board ships.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gangplank directly pulled out his pistol and fired three shots. Before those people could swing over, they fell into the sea and died. To be precise, their meat scraps fell into the sea.
Gangplank's gun was too powerful. The part of the body that was hit by the bullet exploded directly. One unlucky guy's entire upper body was completely blown away, and his head and legs fell into the sea.
"There's someone on board!"
Captain Houston shouted a reminder and jumped over without using a rope, directly jumping onto Grimm's ship. As a big pirate with a bounty of 50 million, if he didn't have this ability, he could go die.
Houston turned his head and saw a young man sitting on a chair on the deck, with a slovenly middle-aged sailor standing next to him.
"Two kids!" Houston said with some disdain.
Grimm was indeed a kid, and Gangplank looked anxious, but he was at most in his forties. Compared to Houston, who had already graying hair and beard, they were indeed kids.
In addition, this Houston had a tall body of nearly four meters, and was covered in silver armor, looking very strong.
"Thank you very much!" Grimm said with a smile, ignoring Houston's ridicule!
"Huh?" Houston didn't understand what Grimm wanted to express.
Grimm stopped speaking, and Gangplank interjected, "Old ghost, do you know what? We're short of a ship, and we're also short of gold. If you can give us your ship, then our ship will be yours. Of course, if you do that, we promise not to touch anything on the ship, and neither will you. Do you understand?"
