The Red Beard Pirates were once a very powerful pirate group on the Saragu Sea.
As Red Beard got older, the turbulence on the sea became unbearable. After a bloody battle with his enemies, he had the opportunity to occupy this special island. This island has a deep-water port and is the largest port nearby. So Red Beard switched to the port business.
The most important thing in operating a port is reputation. Every time other pirate ships make trouble in the port, Red Beard will hit hard to remind others of Red Beard's reputation. He is a level 5 killing priest with countless innocent souls under his command. The red scimitar flag erected in the center of the island is the guarantee of order on this island. Red Beard spent a long time to get the port on the right track. Over the past ten years, Red Beard Island has a very good reputation.
Deep in the heart of Red Beard Island, in a castle built of red granite, the pirate minions are hurriedly running towards the depths of the castle.
"Captain! It's bad! The Green Skull appears outside the port!" Red Beard has changed his career, but he still lets his men call him captain, just like when he was young.
This is the interrogation room of the castle. An old pirate with a big red beard turned his head to look at the person who ran in and had to stop his interrogation.
If you look closely, you can see that the edge of the iconic red beard has a lot of silver beards. Time has made this burly man hunched.
Opposite the pirate Redbeard, a young man was tied up. If Rudolf were here, he would recognize that the prisoner covered in blood was his navigator Pilot.
Pilot heard some chaotic sounds in the interrogation room. He struggled to raise his head and looked in front of him. He did not look at the pirate Redbeard, but at the person next to Redbeard. That was a druid like him, and it was he who tricked Pilot here.
It is not easy to meet a druid in the vast ocean, especially a high-level druid. Torned approached Pilot in disguise and captured him. In order not to alert the enemy, Torned only captured the navigator, and the Bauhinia was under strict surveillance.
Torned was seriously injured in the last witch hunt, and the 5th-level wizard South Sky Swordfish Swo died in front of him. Therefore, Torned was very cautious this time and would not take action unless he was sure of victory.
Torned, the natural disaster druid, also noticed the hateful gaze of Pilot. He felt a little sorry, but he had to do it. His target was Rudolf the Furnace, and he had to bring the Furnace back to be judged by the Judgment Bureau.
As for the gaze of the young druid in front of him, Torned chose to avoid it. After killing the Furnace, he would compensate the young druid.
Druid Torned was not sensitive to the name "Green Skull", so he was not as shocked as the pirates.
Red Beard was very surprised, shaking his chin and letting his long fluffy beard circle. This was his habit when he was lost in thought: "Green Skull? How did it appear here? Does Green Skull still need collections? Hasn't he lost interest in collecting corpses a long time ago?"
A series of questions made his subordinates not know how to answer.
"I don't know, Captain. It's really the Green Skull. No one dares to counterfeit that flag."
The pirate who reported to Red Beard was also very old. He was shaking when he mentioned the word Green Skull.
Red Beard stood up and said to the druid beside him: "Tonned, I don't know why the Green Skull came here. I have to go and see. It shouldn't be a big deal. We have always been at peace. You continue to interrogate and find out where the furnace has gone as soon as possible."
As soon as he walked to the door, Red Beard suddenly turned his head and said: "Tonned, I had some friendship with the Green Skull when I was young, and we have a good relationship as neighbors over the years. If possible, I would like to invite the Green Skull to hunt witches together."
The druid Torned nodded and watched Red Beard leave. What he wanted was the head or body of Rudolf the Furnace. As for what kind of helpers he could find, that was Red Beard's ability.
Torned promised Red Beard generous conditions and persuaded Red Beard to join in the witch hunt. The most important condition was to whitewash Red Beard so that Red Beard could go to the Carolingian Kingdom and become an honorary baron. All the wealth he plundered would become legal wealth, which was what the old Red Beard desired most.
Most pirates were very brave when they killed and robbed, because they had seen the misery of old pirates. Compared with the qualityless lingering, exchanging life for women and wealth was more tempting. In recent years, Red Beard has felt more and more powerless. He dreams of being killed by a pirate captain under his command. He is afraid that he will become a stepping stone for the new pirate leader. When he heard the conditions of the druid, Red Beard agreed without hesitation.
While rushing to the port, Red Beard asked his men: "Didn't you let the Green Skull enter the port?"
"No, we didn't dare to send a guide ship for such a dangerous ship."
Rudolph and Cooper were still puzzled. The Green Skull was parked in the open sea. I don't know why no one came to guide them into the port.
Seeing that the guide boat was delayed, Rudolph couldn't help saying: "I always feel weird, as if there is an ominous breath."
"Be more confident, you are the ominous breath." Cooper said: "You are a walking disaster, and you are unlucky wherever you go."
"That's right... We should be on guard. Don't expose our identities first, pretend that it is the real Green Skull that entered the Red Beard Port."
Red Beard led his men to the port, and noticed the Green Skull on the sea far away from the port.
It is impossible not to notice that among a group of steamships, a sailing ship is so special.
It seems to be an antique ship from the last century. The waves have not been able to sweep away the moss and mud on the ship. There are still some holes on the hull, which makes this sailing ship look even older.
However, no one dares to despise this ship, because the flag flying on the ship is the Green Skull Flag.
For old pirates like Red Beard, the most terrifying thing they have heard when they were young is being targeted by the Green Skull. The Green Skull may not be the strongest pirate, but it is definitely the most difficult to deal with, because the Green Skull is immortal.
After Red Beard arrived at the port, he boarded his own Red Scimitar, started the ship, and headed towards the Green Skull. The bow of the Red Scimitar was raised high, like the tip of a scimitar.
After approaching the Green Skull, Red Beard did not rush to board the Green Skull, but sent his men to deliver a letter.
After the little pirate who delivered the letter came back, he told Red Beard in detail everything he encountered on the Green Skull.
"Captain, there are quite a few crew members on the Green Skull."
Red Beard complained in his heart. Many of those crew members were his opponents in the past. One of them was a Level 5 alchemist and the deputy commander of the navy of the Elba Alchemy Council.
"Just as you said, the captain of the other side is wearing a hooded robe. It is pitch black inside the hood and you can't see anything."
It was undoubtedly the Green Skull. Seeing that the Green Skull had no intention of attacking immediately, Red Beard thought that it was not here to cause trouble.
"I sent the letter to Captain Green Skull. After reading the letter, he said that he could talk to you."
