413 # 394 Undersea Devil.txt (1/2)

The next morning I eat dinner and log in. Finally, the third island...this would be the place to start.

We all gather and leave the second island. I summon Lilly and the others with Legion Summoning. We can't operate the ship without Lily and the others, Aeon says.

'It's an awesome sight,'

Yeah, well, you don't get to see a fleet like this very often.

We're advancing in formation. It's not something you get to see very often. That's when I noticed that the enemies don't seem to show up when we go to a new island. Lily and others are taking a nap with Gray and his friends in peace. I'm worried about getting sunburned from sleeping in a bathing suit, but that's not going to happen in a game... Even Ion, who usually scolds me, can't scold me because it's a peaceful sea trip.

By the way, the formation is us in the middle. It's because we'll be the wall when the need arises. And there are galleons on either side of us.

In front and behind us are one medium-sized gunboat and two high speed escort vessels. In front of me are the gunboat, Full Moon and the others, and Yoichi and the others. Mel and the others in the high speed boat, and the soloists in the high speed boat. Behind me are the shooting star people on the gunboat, Chiffon and the others on the fast ship, and Luke.

After two hours of kicking the enemy to the curb, they saw their destination island.

The third island is an island with a huge skull rock. You can already recognize the enemy. If this is a ship, then it's only natural that the enemy has a ship coming to them.

”Wufu, activate ether shield.

Yes, sir.

We put up the ether shield and proceeded cautiously. But we reach the island easily.

What do you think?

''It's not surprising that both the first and second islands had small fry appearing after the bosses came out.

'I'm not in a good mood...I feel like I'm being invited.'

That's right. By the way, we all agreed that the enemy was a pirate and that it was going to be a sea battle on a ship.

”How do we attack?

”We can only move in anticipation of an enemy attack...

”Well...I think it would be good to have the same feeling as before, with those who attack the base and those who stay on the ship separated.

Everyone agrees with Mel's idea.

'So the gunboat group will have detention, then?

I'll anchor the ship and stand by.

”You're a lord.

After all, he's an invincible wallflower. Mel and the others have a meeting to attack the base. On the other hand, we also have a meeting.

”How should we position our gun ships?

Isn't this the same as it was?

'No, it's dangerous to freeze up too much in a ship fight. It's dangerous to be too far apart.

It's hard to fight in a ship. If you harden up, it's easier for the cannons to hit you, and if you leave, each one will be destroyed.

I think the enemy will probably use the island to pinch you. That's probably why there's only one place to land.

So this one will be a bit of an ambush to avoid being caught in the middle.

As a result, I anchored and the two galleons waited at sea. The other gunboats will be in a position to wait on the other side.

With me and the galleon as bait, the other gunboats would try to catch the enemy by surprise.

Mel and the others decided on the plan and landed on the third island.

Mel and the others proceeded cautiously. The third island is an island where the entire island seems to be a stronghold. There were stairs to be carefully guided.

''...How about those summoned beasts?''

No one has responded so far. There doesn't seem to be any traps beforehand.

It's counterintuitive that we're dealing with pirates and no traps.

But I have to go.

All of us nodded at Tetsushin's words and headed for the skull rock. Then we reach the skull rock without a thing.

''We are now entering the enemy's base.''

Copy that.

Leaving a few people at the entrance, the attacking team goes inside. But they easily reach the boss's room.

''We've arrived in front of the boss's room. Everyone be on alert.

Copy that.

We also raise our anchor and get ready for battle. After receiving word from everyone that preparations were complete, the attack on the third island finally began.

''We're entering the boss room now!

Let's go!

”Oh!

Once everyone entered the room, the anomaly appeared immediately. A thick fog formed around the boss room and the island. Then, an info is played.

'A magical fog has occurred. Please be aware that you cannot use magic in the fog.''

The magic is sealed! And the fog was so thick that I couldn't see my surroundings at all. It's not good, but we can't move. If we move here, Mel and the others will have no way out. Then the synchro comes flying in from Lily and the others. Synchronization isn't magic, so it's effective.

'Tact!　I can't see anything!'

What do you want to do?　Mr. Tact.

”Easy. The enemy has an aetheric shield and is untouchable. Stay put and focus on the aether magic cannon.

Okay, okay!

And then, out of the fog, the boss appeared in front of Mel and the others.

Davey Jones?

?　?　?

That guy was a huge demon in a pirate's uniform like a captain would wear. The devil's devil's tail was no ordinary devil's tail, but a very strange devil with a fish tail.

'Welcome to my island! Welcome to my island!　You're welcome, right?　Poor humans.

Huh!

Tetsushin-san splits his head off.

Ahhhh...it's okay. Already.

Davey Jones speaks only with his head.

'You're an undetectable!'

'Then I will!　Light sword!

Mel holds the Arra Bastard Sword and slashes through it with his light sword.

''Hey, hey. Don't slash my body. That's ick.''

Oh, no!

'How come you're not dead, Andet?　f*ck!　All hands on deck!

But they can't damage Davey Jones. Then Davey Jones turns back into his original form when he turns into a fog.

'Are you feeling better?　Then you're dead. Get him!　Bastards!

”Oh!

A number of new enemies appear above the boss room.

Carth Pirates Lv 22.

Event Monster Target Active

Ordinary human pirates hold their guns up in unison.

'No way!'

Everybody get down!　Shield bearers, defend!

Mel and the others are shot at from all directions. Mr. Full Moon and the others desperately protect them with their shields.

What do you think?

'It's frustrating, but if there's no way to beat it, there's no way to do it. Let's retreat.

Then something was falling from above. Full Moon and the others defended themselves, but it was a bottle of sake.

''This... no way!

Booze!

”Everybody run!　Retreat!

Then Davy Jones holds up his gun.

'Well, don't say that. Have fun with it.

Davy Jones fired his gun and all at once the fire flared up.

'Kukuk!　Ah-ha-ha!

Hearing Davy Jones' laughter, Mel and his friends decide to retreat. But from behind, the Carth Pirates gave chase with their guns.

'Ugh, we've been shot!

I'm fine. Recovery.

Mirai!　Watch out!

Mirai!

The one who protected Mirai and the others was Full Moon, who was burning in a liquor bottle.

''You guys retreat. I'll hold these guys back!

'Full moon!'

'I'm on fire and can't be saved... and I'm a shield. Never mind that, go!

Okay, okay!　Everybody out!　Thank you. Mr. Full Moon.

As they all run away, they call out to Mr. Full Moon.

'It's a man!　Full moon!

”Burning Man!　Full moon!

No, it's on fire, isn't it?

Just get out of here!

After the event, Full Moon's appearance would be discussed on the board, but that's another story.

'You won't get away from my island if you let me get away from here, will you?

'I'm not so sure about that.　We don't get beat up all the time.

”(Especially the tact...)

Mr. Full Moon was desperately trying to stop the enemy from pursuing him until his life force was gone.

Meanwhile, we were in trouble, too. The moment Davy Jones gave the signal, pirate ships came out of the ocean floor one after another. They were medium-sized, but the number of cannons flying at us was staggering.

Moreover, Setia and Ix aimed at the aetheric magic cannon and successfully hit and sank it, but the pirate ship was revived. Andet?

Then the Karth Pirates come from land and shoot at us, too. We can't use our flying power in this case. Furthermore, cannons also flew from the skull rock. Then the signal to retreat goes up from Yoichi-san, who is standing by in a surprise attack.

The strategy has completely backfired, so it can't be helped. First of all, in addition to the number is different, the enemy seems to have read our formation, and is attacking the gunboats. If this continues, there is a high risk of total destruction.

We must avoid having our ships destroyed in a situation where there is not much wood. This retreat would be inevitable. Then Tyrol and the others appear from the water.

'Ta, Mr. Tact!　What do you want to do?

Tyrol, go check on the galleons. Be careful when you're out at sea. And somebody better notify command of our retreat. I'll be sticking around for a while.

I understand!

Tyrol and his team will be the messengers and head out to inform them of the situation. The rest of us have to deal with these guys who are on a roll, throwing bottles and such.

'Lily, Ion, you can shoot Nowa.

The Carthage Pirates will disappear. But they will come back. Are they undead too? Then the Carth Pirates booed him.

'You just fired a big shot at people!

You bastard!

It's not a person. Lilly.

'Yes!　Star Wave!

Lily's star wave hits her, but the Carth Pirates revive. What!

'Ha!　It doesn't work!

Baka!　Baka!

Hmm....I don't know what the theory is, but it looks like it's not even a sacred attribute.

Mm!

'Lily!　Don't be provoked!

Because, Aeon!

I know what I'm doing!　Mr. Takut.

Hmmm...I don't know what to do. If you're undead, this should work...

Mir, could you get me some holy water?

'Yes!　Holy water!

Holy water is released from the roots of the water tree in Meer. Well?

Geez!

Ouch!

Oh...it works. But it will come back. No....

You bastard!

It's not fair to use holy water!

Huh? More? I'll have to do it. I'll take the request.

”Mir, flood.

'Yes!　Flood!

This time, a large amount of water is released, and a flood hits the Carspirates. What do you think?

Buh-ha!　Sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh...sigh. He flushed us out mercilessly.

More demon than captain...

But we're pirates!　What kind of pirate can't swim?　You idiot!　Barker!

Nothing.... more trouble than zombies. Well, let's try this one last time.

”Lilly, get the Ark of the Covenant.

Okay!　The Ark of the Covenant!

When the Carthyrs are trapped in the yellow ward, the sealing effect of the Ark of the Covenant is activated. How's this for you?

Ix, fire a cannon at them.

Yes, Master!

Ix fires the cannon and it comes back. It's not... this... okay.

”Setia, Ix. Can you aim the cannon at the skull rock?

I have a clear shot!

But Master, isn't it just a resurrection?

'Yes. But we won't be attacked in the meantime. Same goes for the guys downstairs.

All you have to do is stop the attack and we're on our own. I can sandbag you. No. You got a better idea?

”Summon the Legion!

I called out to Konoha, Chess, Gale, Yuu Fang, Aranea, Puyosuke, Iyuki, Hix, Stra, and Spica.

'Aeon, get on Subika and head to the rescue of those who went to attack with Lily.

That's all well and good, but what do you intend to do with the enemy?

Freeze him in Twin Glacier.

'Oh!　I see!

They're not ghosts. They're a physical undead kind of thing. Then freezing them should work.

”Gale's not gonna be able to keep a bullet out of him, is he?

Gow!

Good. Then I'll let Gale take the lead first. Once they're aware of Gale, Konoha, Chess, Yuu Fang, and Iyuki, please?　Just don't do the blizzard.

I understand!

He looks at Love Fire and Bran further.

'Love Fire and Bran, when the shooting stops, ride Hix and Stra to subdue the skull's cannons.

Yes!

I'm on it.

We'll launch them at the same time as Setia and Ix's attack.

As soon as Setia and Ix destroy the skull cannon, Gale pops up.

'What the hell!'

I don't care!　Shoot, shoot, shoot!

Payback for what you did back there!

Hee-hah!

But the bullets won't reach Gale. It's electromagnetic armor. Furthermore, the electromagnetic operation returns all the bullets to the enemy.

”Gaaaah!

What?

'What?　That lion!

They're bouncing bullets back!

Then they all jump out.

'They're coming out!'

”I'm sorry.

Phew.

Gaaaah!

Yu Fang's extremely cold breaths and Isetsu's snow storm instantly iced the Karth Pirates. The land is now secured.

''Let's go!''

”Oh!

We're going down to land.

”Summon the Legion!

Furthermore, Black Iron, call for Moonshine Night.

''Black Iron, Moonshine Night, aim at the cannon. Don't hit your allies.

Black iron shot out a ray of light and Gekkiyo lifted and threw the rock. On cue, Lily and the others moved.

Koibito and Bran ride Hicks and Stra and are set up on the rock of the skull. They try to crush the cannon. However, the gunfire is heavy, so they make sure to crush it with Hix's lightning breaths and Stra's flame bombs from a distance where the gunfire can't reach them.

Once they've crushed enough and secured a landing spot, the two men land on the skull rock.

''I'll take care of the defense.''

'Please. Let me do the attacking!　Mr. Hicks and the others will take care of the other cannons, please.

Love Fire overtook Love Moon and Youko and attacked the Carth Pirates.

Meanwhile, Mel and the others were struggling. Carspirates were hiding here and there, and one after another, players were being defeated.

'Shit!　They got me again!

I know!　Don't stop now!　We have to get out of here as fast as we can!

But if we ever get out of here...

It gets dark. Then Mel and the others say.

'At least you're in there, Tact. We have an invincible ship, and we can get away with it.

Yeah, that's right!

But you're not getting out of here.

I'm sure he'll be fine. You'll be fine.

Mirai says, and the base receives a series of shocks.

'This... is an attack from the outside.

'There's only one person who would make this kind of attack, right?

The members who knew Tact nodded at Arleigh's words.

'We'll get out of here at once while the enemy is confused!

”Oh!

As Mel and the others ran, the Karth Pirates were waiting in the hallway with their guns at the ready.

'Fire!'

In the next moment, Spica, who became an arrow of light from outside, blasted the Carspirates.

''Looks like you made it in time,''

I'm here to help!

Lily and Ion appeared.

'Meh, it's a goddess...'

'It was true what the summoners said...'

I know how you feel, but you'll have to wait until later to worship!

”Mm!　Star armor!

Lily defends herself from the Karth Pirates' bullets with a warning of danger. Quickly, Aeon throws the Twin Glacier and slices through the Carth Pirates, freezing them in place.

'We will assist in the retreat,'

I'll take care of the defense!　Because that stuff doesn't work!

”I am counting on you...

Mel and her friends managed to get to Sknavikona with Lily and the others protecting them.

There was a large amount of icy and waist-deep carspirates lying on the sandy beach. It's Libina's doing.

Since then, I've tried many different ways to defeat them. We tried to make our friends shoot each other with Aranea's control thread and charm, but we couldn't defeat them as a result.

'Isn't it nice to be able to resurrect them indefinitely?

Hey, you're back.

It looks like. Huh?　Where's Luke?

That guy's a head shot.

Tyrol was waiting for me at the end of the day, but he got hit...and there are a lot fewer people elsewhere. Mel and the others are coming in.

'I'm sorry. You're saved.

It's Lord. And you haven't made it out yet. In fact, I'd say this is a good place to start.

'The gunboats took damage and withdrew on their own. The galleons also persisted, but it was Mr. Tact's decision to retreat.

They all look at me.

'If we hang around with a gunboat that is immortal and fires endless cannons at us, we'll lose two galleons. I asked them to retreat to avoid that. If you're going to blame me, blame me.

No, it's the right thing to do. I don't blame anyone. You didn't beat the boss. So, what are you thinking about retreating?

I answer Ironheart's question.

'The only people who can get on the Sknavikona are those who are working together. The rest of us will have to leave the ship and retreat. Sknavikona will have to pave the way for the retreat, and we'll have to make a retreat somehow.

You will.

'I'm going to leave Sknavikona to Mel and the others. I think it would be best if I managed to scatter the attack from the air and sea with Lily and the others.

They all nodded at my suggestion. Fortunately, they're all fast ships. As long as we can get through the siege of the gunboat, we'll be able to escape.

”Then I'll take the wheel of the Sknavikona.

Reject!

What the hell?

Because I'm afraid of Mel's piloting. Kego ended up piloting it.

'My time has come!

”You'll be ready to hurt me if I hurt you?

'You didn't say anything when Mel said it!

You can't say that to Mel. Since Luke is no longer able to use the cannon properly, Setia and Ix play the cannon.

The rest of us will have to split up and deal with it.

'I'll team up with Safi. Aeon, Rian, Konoha, and Chess will attack Sknavikona's left with me. Lily and Love Fire will be Spica. Bran is Hicks. Farida, you'll attack the right with Stra. Diane, you'll be escorting the fast ship. Tyrol's already confirmed that ship's structural parts aren't going to be fixed by breaking them. So I'm going after the cannon and the rudder. Be careful, because sinking them will bring them back to life.

”Yes!

Tyrol and the others will break the rudder of the ship that Lily and the others targeted from the water.

Copy that.

The final retreat has begun. Sknavikona stepped forward and the firefight began.

'Then we'll go too. I'll leave it to you to decide when to leave.

Okay.

Let's go!

We attacked the enemy ship.

We'll crush the rudder. Aeon and his men will take care of the artillery.

'I understand!　Let's go!　Leanne!

Yes!

Aeon and Rian turn to either side of the ship.

'Blue wave motion!'

Water Wave!

I crush them all at once, but that's how the Carspirates find out.

'They're at sea!'

Shoot, shoot, shoot!

Shots are coming, but Ion and Rian dive underwater and head for the next ship. I hold the spear of lethal poison and Saffy and the coordination is activated. A vortex is created in the spear of the lethal venom.

It then pierces the rudder and destroys it. It destroys one after another with its own momentum.

'd*mn you!　I'll get the rudder!

Underwater!　Attack in the water!　Whoa!

A feather flies from the sky and freezes over.

There's something in the sky!

Where is it?

Just shoot!

Ho...

Conoha stopped at the mast to sneer. Combat in the fog is Konoha's sole domain. Even if he couldn't use magic, his advantage was the same.

Lily and the others were also steadily destroying the ship. Obviously, the sound of the cannon is gone, and Tetsushin and the others start to move.
