Chapter 130 The Mysterious Woman
"Hey, get on board, we'll take you away."
The pirate ship slowly approached the life raft, rough ropes being thrown down from the side. Lorne looked up and saw the deck crowded with menacing faces, their skin greasy in the sunlight.
Their thoughts are written all over their faces, don't these pirates even try to hide them... Lorne thought to himself, while glancing at Tracy beside him.
He raised his head and used his spiritual vision to scan the area briefly. His spiritual response was weak, and his spiritual intuition offered no significant warning.
And this ship is so small... Lorne looked at the pirate ship in front of him.
Compared to the "Golden Dream," this ship is practically a toy.
"A pirate crew like this, at most, only has one or two Sequence Nines..." Lorne calculated to himself, "If the two of them go together, it shouldn't be a problem..."
Having figured this out, he looked at Tracy beside him: "I'll go first, then you..."
Before Luo could finish speaking, Tracy interrupted, "Ladies first."
As she spoke, she grabbed the cable and prepared to climb up.
"Hey!" Lorne stopped her. "Their target is clearly you. You're injured, so let me..."
"Hey, you underestimate me." Tracy shook off Lorne's hand, her voice was cold but her ears were inexplicably red.
"They don't appreciate kindness..." Lorne shook his head helplessly and had no choice but to follow.
Not long after they started climbing, Lorne realized an awkward situation: their position was... well, you know. He couldn't lift his head at all. Since Tracy was on top and wasn't wearing any safety shorts, if Lorne looked up, he would inevitably see some things...
"Tsk, awkward."
When the two climbed onto the deck, the pirates had already formed a semicircle. A burly man with gold teeth pushed through the crowd, his shoes making a dull thud on the wooden planks.
"Welcome to the 'Blood Shark'." He grinned, revealing his gold teeth. "I am—"
"Bang!"
The pirate leader's self-introduction came to an abrupt end.
Tracy's elbow strike landed precisely on his Adam's apple, knocking him to the ground.
'Too hasty, Miss. Can't you stall for time first? Why do I get the feeling you're so eager to show off...' Lorne muttered to himself.
"Leave this to me, you go check the cabin," Tracy said to Lorne without turning her head.
"Alright." Lorne picked up the Ripper and walked towards the stern of the ship.
Four or five pirates surrounded Tracy, but no one dared to step forward. Tracy gave a cold laugh; the pent-up frustration of the past few days had finally found an outlet.
……
"There were only two guards in the storage room, and I knocked them out. You're alright here..." After wandering around the pirate ship, Lorne returned to the deck.
What came into view were sailors lying haphazardly on the ground.
The man dressed as a captain was kneeling before Tracy, begging for mercy.
"Please, have mercy, you two!"
"We were just passing through and didn't intend to do anything to you."
"Really?"
"Hmph." Tracy snorted coldly, about to make a move.
"etc!"
"I remember now." Upon seeing Tracy's face up close, the pirate captain suddenly realized something.
"You...you are a disease..."
"what!"
Before he could finish speaking, Tracy kicked him unconscious.
"Is it necessary?" Lorne came to Tracy's side.
"He's so noisy..." Tracy replied casually, but her hands unconsciously clenched.
It was obvious that she was putting on a brave face.
Tracy herself didn't know what had just happened to her. Just as the pirate was about to reveal his identity, she inexplicably became agitated.
She glanced at Lorne behind her and subconsciously squeezed her legs together... as if she didn't want him to know that she was a notorious pirate.
"Hey, how's it going over there?" she asked, trying to sound calm, only to see Lorne leaning against the ship's railing, his face pale.
"Cough cough."
I feel like something's not right... Lorne felt like his condition had suddenly worsened.
That's strange. Even though I was hungry for a few days and wasn't feeling well, this has deteriorated too quickly.
"Oh no, I forgot he's also within the range of my abilities." Tracy remembered that she had used her disease ability to render the sailors unable to resist.
She rushed forward and said hurriedly, "Are you alright? I..."
"Watch out!" Lorne shoved her away.
"Bang!"
The Ripper spewed flames, and the pirate captain who had tried to ambush him fell to the ground, blood gushing from several bullet holes.
"The extraordinary..."
"There should be a Sequence 8." Lorne stood up, shotgun in hand, and looked at Tracy:
"You're not calm enough."
"Damn it." Tracy went up to the corpse and kicked it over.
"Cough cough..."
"What is this?" Lorne approached the corpse and noticed what appeared to be a scarlet mark on the back of its neck.
"That's the hallmark of the Rose School."
"Many pirates belong to this organization," Tracy explained from the side.
The Rose School... Parasites!
Unpleasant memories flooded back, and Lorne quickly asked, "You've taken them all down, who's going to steer the boat?"
Tracy waved her hand dismissively: "Don't worry, it's just a small boat, I can handle it."
"boat……"
"It is indeed much smaller than the Golden Dream, not even a tenth of its size," Lorne muttered to himself.
The Golden Dream… Tracy, who was standing nearby, heard this word.
She blurted out instinctively:
Do you know Edwina Edwards?
"Um..." Lorne didn't like being eavesdropped on, but seeing Tracy's inexplicably anxious expression, he nodded anyway.
"know."
"How's the relationship?" Tracy stepped forward.
What a strange question… Lorne rolled his eyes: “Is it any of your business?”
"I..." Tracy suddenly choked.
"snort!"
"I just wanted to remind you that Edwina isn't a good person. That bitch has a whole ship full of men, she changes them every week without repeating a single one..."
"That's enough," Lorne interrupted her. "The captain isn't that kind of person."
The word "captain?" seemed to infuriate Tracy.
"You're protecting her."
"what?"
……
Looking at Tracy, who was standing silently with her arms crossed, Lorne shrugged.
baffling.
Are there all the people in this world a little bit off?
……
Cab.
"The ship may be small, but it's well-equipped." Lorne fiddled with the shotgun shell in his hand.
"Unfortunately, they're just ordinary bullets."
"However, at least there is enough food."
After replenishing his food and water, his condition improved significantly.
"Laki, have some too." Lorne teased the orange cat in his bag with a piece of dried fish.
"Strange, how come there's an island here?" Tracy, who was at the helm, frowned. "Is the nautical chart wrong?"
In the distance, a primitive island suddenly appears on the horizon.
……
"Achoo!" Alger rubbed his itchy nose.
I have a bad feeling about this.
"Boss, we've arrived."
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Alger perked up: "Understood, we'll prepare to move out."
