Chapter 12 - The Prisoner 7
Chapter 12: The Prisoner (7)
The squally rain on the sea!
The waves of the sea roar!
The slaves on the sea resist!
The human rights struggle on the sea!
It is to celebrate the great freedom and equality!
There was chaos on the deck, blood spattered, and the desperate struggle between slaves and pirates was all over the deck.
Captain Kild’s power was huge, and his machete easily pushed me back again and again.
“Tear.” The scimitar in Kidd’s hand tore the pirate flag that was slowly floating down, and the scimitar cut through the layers of rain and slashed towards my neck without hesitation.
“Uhhhh! You mortals want to encroach on the great light of the great Captain Kild. You! Trying to resist me!”
“I am the overlord of the sea!”
The long sound of seagulls was heard in the night sky, as three seagulls landed on the mast. I saw the white seagulls. The muscles of my whole body were tight and tense, but because the seagulls represent victory and peace, I had great courage.
“Kild! Listen to me!!! You are not worthy–” The heavy rain scuffled on my face, and my will was extremely firm. “–To be called a human, let alone travelling on this sea, let alone trampling on the lives of others.”
“Dare to offend me again. I will kill you, and then turn you into jerky.” Kild furiously pressed the scimitar down. I couldn’t resist this heavy force even if I tried my best.
Kild’s scimitar gradually fell towards my neck. My teeth were shut tightly, and it was just there.
“Mr. Dante!” This familiar voice made me overjoyed.
The blood-covered Rui took a spear and leapt. The spear in his hand cut through the rain and pierced towards Kild’s back.
“Inferior slave, don’t underestimate the great Kild.” Kild quickly drew the musket from his waist.
“No!” I growled nervously after seeing that Rui was in danger.
The musket fired, but it was shot in the wrong direction, because the white-robed Assassin who jumped from the side kicked Kild’s arm, and the scimitar pressed on my longsword suddenly lightened.
I pulled away Kild’s scimitar and took the opportunity to bend over and hit Kild’s flank and push him towards Rui’s spear.
“You guys! These inferior slaves.” Kild stretched out his palm to block the spear that Rui pierced him with. The spear pierced Kild’s palm, and the spear was about to pierce his eyes.
“Get out of here!” Captain Kild turned the scimitar, and I, Rui, and the assassin in the white robe quickly backed away.
Captain Kild pulled the spear out of his palm, and he furiously looked at the hole in his palm.
“I am silent in the sea. In this sea, no one has made me so angry. But I was injured by a slave, unforgivable!” Kild tore off his black captain’s coat and took a heavy step towards me.
I had a wound on my left shoulder. The only thing I could use was my right hand, but the attack made my right hand almost completely numb.
Step! Step!
Two crisp footsteps sounded on my left and right, It was Rui and the Assassin. At least it’s not one-on-one. It was three-on-one, so the chance of winning should be high.
I lifted up my longsword and slashed towards Kild. Kild raised the scimitar and slashed at me. The Assassin in the white robe hooked the mast, and then rotated in the air to kick Kild in half a circle. Kild gave up his attack on me, grabbed the white-robed Assassin’s leg, and smashed him heavily on the deck.
I used this opportunity to cut through Captain Kild’s abdomen, but the wound was not too deep. Rui picked up a ceramic wine jar and hit Captain Kild’s head.
Crush!
The wine jar fell to the ground, and Captain Kild grabbed Rui’s neck. Rui’s neck was about to be twisted during this breathing time.
The white-robed Assassin was smashed into a coma, so now only I could save Rui’s life. It was my turn to help Rui.
My blood was spurting, and my breathing was heavy. The muscles of my arms bulged, and my whole body was so hard that it twitched and hurt.
“Let go of Rui!” I have never jumped so high since I was born, and my potential exploded again. The longsword in my hand pierced the raindrops and went straight towards Captain Kild’s head.
“You are still tender.” Captain Kild grabbed Rui and slammed him at me. Rui was like an object in his hand. Rui’s body collided with mine, and I spat blood, as Rui and I were smashed on the guardrail of the deck.
“On the sea, the great Kild is invincible. I am like the god of war Achilles from the myths,” Kiddle roared. I desperately tried to stand up, but the bones of my body wouldn’t move.
(Note: Achilles, the ancient Greek god of war, was impenetrable, because he was soaked in the spring water of the Styx. But because his heel was not soaked, he was shot and killed with a poisoned bow and arrow. He was as famous as Starbucks.”)
“Slave! Remember who killed you! It’s me, the great Kild.” Kild stretched out his thumb to point at me.
He dragged a round knife towards me with no mercy in his eyes, and I struggled to think. You must stand up and be determined to resist to the end, and you must not sit still and wait for death now.
Swish~
A sharp iron bolt pierced Kild’s head, and his tall body suddenly stood still. I looked blankly at the person who fired the iron bolt, and to my surprise, I found that it was the seemingly knocked out assassin. The iron bolt came from a hidden weapon the assassin had in his sleeve.
At a loss, ecstasy rushed into my mind instantly.
“Listen, pirates! Your captain is dead, completely dead, hahahahaha~” I raised my head and laughed wildly, and the deck was quiet at this moment.
“Victory!” The surviving slaves raised their arms and cheered, while the remaining pirates suddenly burst out laughing. The strange behavior of the pirates made me wonder, their leader died, why were they laughing loudly.
“Boy, get out of your position.” The Roman language came into my ears at this moment. In the next scene, I saw Kild still slashing towards me with the machete high, and I rolled with all my strength. The scimitar cut a gap directly in the deck.
I glanced at the crack in the deck. If I was cut by that knife, my body would be directly in two. I panted and looked at the pierced head of Kild. I couldn’t believe Kild could still move.
Humans were controlled by the brain, and it was impossible to move once the brain was destroyed. The next moment, our group of rebelling slaves trembled.
In the violent storm, only the dark clouds showed moonlight shining on the deck. The full moon was pale as bone, making us feel gloomy.
These pirates slowly melted from the deck. To be precise, their muscle tissue was dissolving, and as the moonlight was dissolving, so did Kild’s muscles.
“Oh my goodness.”
“God.”
“This is not true, is it.”
I heard the sound of the weapon falling, and I, like the other slaves, were trembling at what was happening below. The dragging sound of the iron chains resounded in the heavy rain. The sound of the iron chain came from the bottom of the sea, heavy and harsh.
The long and dull chorus sounded from below the bottom of the sea, and each of us pricked our ears to listen.
“The prince and his men.”
“The king who will sleep.”
“Kill from the bed.”
“The exposed prince took his men with him.”
“Escape to the ocean.”
“Thieves and beggars, pull the oars.”
“We have oceans and infinite power.”
“High Aromites.”
“We will be immortal.”
After the song was over, the pirates on the deck that became bones, including Kild, weirdly penetrated under the deck of the ship, but the deck was intact.
“Look! On the sea.” A slave shouted tremblingly.
I endured the pain of my muscles and looked at the sea. One after another, pirates ran out from under the deep sea. They violated physics and stepped on the sea. When the pirates’ bodies were illuminated by moonlight, they would turn into bones. When they were not in the moonlight, they had a human body.
“God!” I grabbed my hair with both hands and watched in horror as more and more pirates rushed into the sea.
