Klein couldn't go against his own will to comfort
He took two steps sideways, walked around to the edge of the ship, and looked out at the choppy sea.
At this moment, the high clouds had thinned and become sparser. The light of the Crimson Moon slightly brightened the dim night.
In this environment, Klein clearly saw the scene not far away. There, dark clouds were layered and pressed low. He could see the tangible hurricanes rampaging back and forth, enveloping an unknown vast expanse of sea.
Illuminated by silver-white lightning bolts, a dense downpour danced in the wind, creating a scene resembling the apocalypse.
Such a terrifying disaster was perhaps only a few nautical miles away from the *Future*, or even closer, but this side was almost unaffected, just the wind had picked up a little.
This is the meaning of a safe passage: traveling in the intervals between storms… Without a qualified navigator, even normal sailing could lead you into a disaster… Klein turned his head and looked ahead of the ship. There, the light was dim, the fog was thick, visibility was very low, and it was difficult to distinguish dangerous areas from safe ones with just the naked eye.
A similar situation wasn't very obvious to the west of
Just as Klein was about to retract his gaze, he suddenly saw a dark, massive object lurking at the edge of the storm!
A sea monster? He suddenly recalled the maritime rumors he had heard in various taverns: After straying far from the safe passage, one could easily encounter all kinds of monsters. Some of them were huge in size and highly aggressive, capable of swallowing a ship in one gulp once they surfaced.
The *Future* did not stop. Before long, it closed in on the dark and gloomy giant.
Klein finally saw what it was. He found that it wasn't a sea monster, but a sailing ship even larger than the *Future*.
This ship was nearly two hundred meters long, high at both ends, overall resembling a crescent moon.
Its surface was black. The cannons on the side were staggered in three rows, orderly. The part protruding from the deck, besides the mast, was also towering and massive, at least equivalent to a five-story building.
What was most unusual about this ship was that it had only one sail, on which a black tombstone was painted.
"*Death*…" A solemn voice sounded in Klein's ear. Frank Lee had somehow abandoned those silver-scaled fish that used red wine as blood and walked to his side.
This first mate, with a bounty of 7,000 pounds, had a stern face and tense muscles, as if ready to attack at any moment at the slightest change on the huge sailing ship.
"*Death*?" Klein was stunned at first, then remembered what this name represented.
It was one of the most famous and legendary ships on the Five Seas!
It was the flagship of the "Undying King" Agalitu!
He had actually run into one of the "Four Kings"... Klein clicked his tongue in amazement and couldn't help but enter a high state of alert.
Nevertheless, he maintained an indifferent and calm exterior, still gazing at the *Death*.
Remembering that the "Undying King's" second mate, the 9,500-pound bounty "Massacre" Gelsias, had recently appeared in Nas and had warned him, Klein felt relieved and stopped wondering why he had encountered the *Death* not far from the Gargas Islands.
Setting this question aside, he recalled more rumors. Some of these rumors could be confirmed as true descriptions: "The 'Undying King' Agalitu is a pale middle-aged man who seems to be rotting at any moment; "His single-nation bounty is as high as 100,000 pounds; "Those who have been his enemies—whether pirates, adventurers, or naval fleets—have all perished, only the other three of the 'Four Kings' remain alive; "He has never directly confronted an official demigod and is extremely restrained in this regard; "Almost no one knows his specific Sequence, no one understands his extraordinary abilities; "He is cruel by nature, fond of killing, and may attack any person or any ship at any time; "He likes to find excuses to break promises. Besides the title 'Undying King', he is also widely called 'the Faithless'."
Fortunately, I am now aboard the *Future*. The "Undying King" should show some respect to the "Admiral of Stars". After all, Ma'am Hermit is also one of the Seven Pirate Admirals… No, the "Four Kings" and the pirate admirals, except for the peace they maintain at the Pirate Assembly called by the "King of the Five Seas", normally cooperate and fight, with the latter being more common. A few months ago, the "Admiral of Blood" and the "Vice Admiral of Dusk" had a big battle… Coupled with the "Undying King's" style, things might not just end with a chance encounter! Just as this thought flashed through Klein's mind, he heard a low horn sound.
Woo!
The sailors resting in the cabins instantly woke up. Without bothering to put on their clothes, they rushed to different cannons or came to the deck, preparing for boarding. The *Future* instantly shifted from a peaceful state to a wartime state.
Klein turned his head and looked up. The window of the captain's cabin was already open. "Admiral of Stars"
She was no longer wearing those heavy glasses. Her pitch-black eyes were tinged with a little deep purple, deep and mysterious.
"As expected, she is also worried about the 'Undying King' suddenly launching an attack…" Klein withdrew his gaze and looked back at the *Death* with its high bow and stern.
At this moment, the two ships were passing each other by, and the pirates on the other side were faintly visible.
