As soon as Nightowl briefed the pirates about the campaign plan, leaving the minor commanders to explain the tiny details to them, Naga Island finally seemed to have awakened after months of hibernating.
An ancient dragon seemed to have awakened from a millennia long slumber, the Morales fleet arose with a bang.
None of the pirates questioned the order, none of them questioned the motive for the campaign. After staying in the island for months, they all had complete trust in their lord’s insight and his power.
If he ordered them that they should invade every territory in the Larpotian Sea, or even the headquarters of the Pugilist Dojo, they would do it without blinking an eyelid.
Morales didn’t even need to come out to give a morale speech, just the mention of his name in the announcement was all that the pirates needed for their morale to directly soar into cloud nine.
Their commanders were already secretly preparing for the campaign for days
Thanks for reading.
Though the Manacre family was not rated among the superpowers at sea, neither was the Morales fleet. They were both not superpowers, but the Morales fleet in Naga Island was stronger than the Manacre family.This did not mean that the Manacre family was weak though, the ability to occupy an island in the Larpotian Sea and develop it to its current state was something impossible to incompetent powers.Lord Devon Manacre was indeed afraid of the notorious Pirate Vice Admiral, but the fact that he did not escape with his family immediately showed his confidence in the foundations already built by his family.When he knew that negotiations would not work again, he resorted to the hard way, the ancient way of battle.As soon as every civilian on the island was isolated underground, the military force of the ancient Manacre family erupted with force.Enormous mechanically made kinetic cannons and magic beam propellers were brought out from the family&rsq
After both fleets collided, the difference in numbers and quality immediately became apparent. Compared to a normal fleet of 30 ships, a fleet of 70+ ships led by 10 metal ships was a nightmare in sea battles. The Morales fleet gathered frightening momentum after the first collision and without pausing, they rode on that momentum forward. The shields of the opposing ships flickered as they collided with each other with force. Orange, red, and other colors flared around them as weapon attacks, both magical and physical impacted the shields. The sea water raged, spreading towards opposite sides to present the ideal battlefield to settle this tug of war. The shields of both sides made sure that no side had an overwhelming advantage right off the bat, but the presence of the Wyvern and the superior number and quality of the Morales fleet’s ships played a huge role. The Wyvern didn’t just attack with fire, it attacked with hurricanes too that threw
“Stop the invaders!” “Stop the Morales Fleet!” “Kill the pirates!” “Kill the savage, Morales!” As soon as the pirates of the Morales fleet started climbing into the island and slowly started gaining ground, the soldiers of the Manacre Island finally seemed to realize that their home was about to be taken. For most of them, they were bred and lived in Manacre Island all their life. They got married on the island, had a family with children on the island, and all their resources in life were acquired and inside the island. If the Morales Fleet won the battle, it meant that they lost everything. Their wives, their children, their family, their resources, it would be all gone. There was a significant difference between when they believed that they were fighting the battle for their Lord, and when they had the knowledge that they were fighting for themselves, for their own family. When they knew that they were fighting for t
When Morales started making his plans on taking over 3 other islands to attach to Naga Island, he thought a lot about it, creating a lot of contingency plans but in the end, it seems that he was thinking too much. The overwhelming success currently being displayed in Manacre Island showed him how much his forces have grown during the past few months. Not only did the name ‘Morales Fleet’ become known across the Larpotian Sea, but the quality of pirate recruits in his fleet was also now miles stronger than months ago when he just started. Though he was still the only Grade D expert on the ship, the same could not be said about Grade E experts. The fleet was now full with them which reflected in the results in this battle. He thought that he may be forced to resort to using his origin core-powered Naga Island extensively, but it seems that he was thinking too much. When Lord Devon Manacre finally entered the battlefield and started killing his s
As soon as the old Lord Devon Manacre who was the sovereign of the island was subdued by the notorious Pirate Vice Admiral Morales, the defenders of Manacre Island suffered another blow but they did not give up immediately. Seeing the dignity of their lord being sullied as he was on his knees like a servant, the conviction to die in battle in their hearts only grew stronger. Despite their fierce effort, the motivated pirates of the Morales fleet hunted them with even more energy like bloodhounds who knew no exhaustion. It did not take long before the second line of defense of the island was breached, and through here, the pirates had even more access inside the island. Those pirates that didn’t have the privilege to become supers yet surged into the island with sub-machine guns and other lethal weapons in waves. Everywhere they passed, their bullets swept like a group of locusts moving across. They stampede through the island, taking enemy sol
Somewhere far away from Manacre island, a medium-sized wooden multipurpose rowing boat with an engine was slowly propelled through the waters of the Larpotian Sea. This boat was covered with a big black veil without an insignia, preventing anyone who saw it from afar from knowing which faction or power at sea it belonged to. And inside this boat was a group of people. At this moment the boat was extremely silent, only the sounds of the water waves could be heard as the inhabitants of the boat rowed forward as silently as possible so as not to attract any attention. Inside this boat were the direct descendant and family of the Manacre family, precisely the family of the old Lord Devon Manacre who was the sovereign of Manacre island. One of the reasons why the old Lord debuted in the battle at that time was because of his family. Though he was already resigned to lose the island, he was also ready to die trying to protect it. Manacre Island was
In a wide military field, the soldiers of Manacre Island who survived long enough till the surrender were lined up on their knees as they waited in the sun for the arrival of their new Lord. Though they already surrendered, most of them had stony expressions on their faces which said their hearts were still elsewhere. The Morales fleet pirates didn’t care about them though, they just bundled them all together. After they surrendered, things became a lot easier for the pirates. All the underground shelters were already accessed by the pirates, and all the civilians that were hidden were already brought out. After a few dozen minutes of meticulous working, the island’s operation and hidden resources were now firmly under the control of the pirate fleet. Beyond the military field where the soldiers kneeled, tens of thousands of civilians were gathered as they all waited for the emergence of their new Lord. Pirates were stationed at various strate
Middle-Ray Island, the Clifford navy base. Inside the most important point of the Clifford navy base, Commander Arachnid’s office was currently gathered all the most important soldiers of this Clifford navy base. Together, they all watched the exploits of the Morales fleet that were being projected through a long-distance satellite projector in the hands of a spy trained by the Clifford navy. “To Trevor Peaks!” Hearing the confident and ambitious voice of the prince as he declared this to his fleet and his newly conquered island, a wide smile spread through the Commander’s face. Though the higher-ups of the navy that were currently in his office didn’t say a word, their silence already said a lot about how they viewed the ongoing operation. Commander Arachnid only had one word for the campaign. “Just like a Clifford!” … Faraway, deep inside the Larpotian Sea, the Serenity fleet roamed through the seawater freely without
