The audience was finally enlightened after listening to Shawen’s explanation of the Baladine Bloodsail.

Sheyan nodded earnestly and uttered.

"I get it. Therefore, must we fold up the Baladine Bloodsail whenever we encounter vile weather conditions like a hurricane? Thus, increasing the ship’s deadweight to combat the storms?"

Shawen impatiently waved his hands and yelled.

"That is of course! Scram now all of you, let me take a rest. Hurry and get lost. Oh right, I need a mug of tea understood? Brewed with eastern tea leaves, with salt and lemon. Right, I’m also famished, I’d like a meal of medium steak. You know I still have loads of tasks to accomplish after waking."

"The ship is filled with pretty outstanding components that are absurdly and recklessly installed in its wrong positions….and that Greenland Lethal weapon! Which idiot took their own liberties to install it as a harpoon gun?!! An unlearned fool should keep to his own jurisdiction eh? Finally, I must propose a slight amendment with regards to the shape dynamics of this ship. There are absolutely areas to improve the speed of this ship."

In this era, Shawen definitely had no clue on what wind drag coefficient was. Yet he was still able draw identical conclusions as modern day scientists. One could tell his reputation was indeed deserving.

Facing the overbearing blusters of Shawen, Sheyan could only shrug his shoulders and ‘scram’.

There was nothing he could do about this. Often times, individuals with great talent would possess rather eccentric personalities.

Sheyan then retired to his captain’s cabin to rest. Following that, Ol’Seadog asked for instructions pertaining to their next voyage destination. Without thinking much, Sheyan casually replied.

"Obviously we shall head for the gulf of Satmos."

Beside Ol’Seadog, Nanuke abruptly interrupted.

"Might cap’n be interested in the fiendish Chupacabra? Of the fiendish existence of the fables, the mermaids be ranked the foremost. The hardenin’ of her tears into pearls can be exchanged for ten ounces of gold. Even the bombastic british gentlemen would fork out gold for the tusks of leviathans, but the Chupacabra be destitute devils that only some alchemists hold value to. There be no booty fer us to hunt it."

Sheyan obviously wasn’t planning to explain his reason for selecting the gulf of Satmos; which was because time was tight, and its destination was the closest here. Hence, he merely ignored Nanuke’s opinion.

"There’s always a first for everything. Set sail! Nanuke, some commend that you’re the mightiest user of the ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’ while others condemn you be the worst. I believe you will show me your response with actions, aye?"

Nanuke clenched his fist tightly, as the black tattoo on his large arm trembled along his swelling muscles.

"Ye shall see wit’ your own eyes, sir. Might I not be one who loves chatterin’ wit’ me mouth."

"I’ll be waiting." Sheyan replied unenthusiastically.

"Full larboard!!!"

"Lower the three sails."

"Heave ho, ye paddlers!"

"Aye, once more, once more till you overtake those scums!"

************************

A symphony of sea breeze, billowing waves, shoutings and toiling chants enveloped this very deck.

Pirates shuttled around the ship like robots, each to their own taskings; but in unison, they exhibited a glorious efficiency.

The depths of sea currents pressed against the bottom of the ship, as raging gales incessantly whistled along its impregnable hull.

Sheyan was presently standing on The Dingyuan’s bow.

By his side, was that archaic ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’. It appeared like the vanguard of the ship. Eliminating the witchcraft and glows it emitted, its current position truly resembled the cruise missiles of destroyer batteries of the latter generations. It was truly a treacherous concealed weapon of the highest quality.

Under the guidance of the maestro Shawen, the current ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’ was no longer an ordinary harpoon gun. Instead, the launching harpoon was replaced by a curved rib of a great whale tempered and refined by Daitish’s occult magic!

Now known as the ‘Whalerib Harpoon’, it would launch out whirling with astonishing speed before piercing deep into the body of its prey.

Without its own distinct flare, how would the ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’ manage to assassinate the former captain of the Queen’s Anne Revenge, one of the three legendary pirate ships?

Naturally, the prerequisites in terms of aiming and loading would be taxing on its user. Nevertheless, Nanuke was gifted in this particular field and totally familiarized himself with the weapon within two days.

Presently, the greatest evidence of Nanuke’s capabilities were the pair of Chupacabra skeletons suspended atop the second mast; one large and one small.

Vividly seen from his bare body, Nanuke’s rugged muscles were drenched in shimmering oily perspiration. His usually fierce countenance was now replaced with a savage one, and his eyes were strangely shut. However, one could tell from his shivering eyelids, that his eyeballs were still twitching violently. The pirates were even worried his eyeballs would suddenly rupture at any moment.

All of a sudden, the harpoon of the ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’ exuberated with black radiance, as the front of the harpoon swivelled with astonishing speed before a white beam shot out. Leaving behind a trajectory of strands of black fumes, as it stabbed into the abyss of the ocean!

Seconds later, an abundance of bubbles popped out from the azure sea water, before a nearby portion of the sea begun churning.

It was as though a monstrosity was being stirred from the depths of the sea, before large diffusion of maroonish blood could be seen; contaminating the portion of the sea before them! In contrast to scenic jade seawaters, the sunlight, blue skies and white clouds, this image was additionally sorrowful and truly peculiar.

Closely following, a tremendous shadow surfaced from the depths of the seawaters 50 metres ahead of the Dingyuan.

It resembled a massive dark cloud hiding beneath the water surface as it drifted in leisurely, but dragged along a dense fumigation of red behind it. An epic sized dorsal fin of matchless incisiveness poked out from the sea surface like a beheading blade, as it glimmered under the glaring sunlight.

Then, it tore towards The Dingyuan with rapid pace!

This monster had already executed this exact manner of collision against many ships! Currently, it was anticipating the moment it enlarged its razor sharp jaws in preparing to devour the capsized humans rapaciously. Their flesh and blood would nourish its wounds.

Instead, this scene was no longer foreign to the pirates who had already hunted down two other Chupacabras. They were all holding onto firm objects around them while unanimously whistling for this fiendish monster.

"O lil’darlin’, common here boy."

"Ye shall realize yer deadliest fin be as frail as antique china, but not as valuable."

"Ahoy~~~~I’m itchin’ for impact!"

An intense collision broke out within an instance, as the solid bone fin struck against the bottom of the Dingyuan. White foamy turbulence of waves soared, as it unyieldingly scraped out a sequest of sparks for close to a metre!

Yet under the majestic hardness of the Dingyuan…....Kacha! Its bony great fin caved in from the pressure and snapped! Instead, only a streak of white scar remained at the scraped portion of the ship!

Towering at 3 metres of height and as broad as 6 metres, the giant fin was snapped into three. Two fragments scraping out sparks for 20-30 metres towards the left and right of the ship, before crashing into the sea. Then, they drifted along the currents of the sea mournfully.

The Chupacabra’s original intent was to directly slice the ship’s bow in two, before exploiting its monstrous strength to flip it. However, a deviation occurred in its plan, a dangerously massive deviation!!

Not only did its back fin fail to carve the ship’s bow open, it had instead snapped from the recoil!

The indescribably substantial weight of the ship then crushed down against it like a mountain range.

As the Chupacabra’s flesh contacted against the hull of the Dingyuan, its veiny ashen colored body spasmed against and adhered tightly against the hull. Though it snarled with great infuriation, its skin was torn asunder by the ship’s hull as white foam splashed out and dissolved into the sea!

Although this Chupacabra was equivalent to a third of the Dingyuan’s size and its brute strength was exceedingly frightening, a collisson of this magnitude still failed to break the stability of the Dingyuan; the ship merely tremored slightly. Don’t speak of such impregnable stability to ordinary ships, even legendary warships couldn’t surpass it!

The disadvantaged Chupacabra was still an intelligent creature. Without lingering for further words, it dove towards the abyss of the sea.

This was the greatest difficulty pertaining to hunting legendary sea creatures. While if one could triumph over a legendary creatures on land, it would be easier to pursue and finally exhaust the creature.

Yet even if one suppressed these herculean legendary sea creatures with might, these crafty brats could still escape towards the depths of the ocean where it would be impossible to pursue. Unless, one managed to locate and stifle its nest or perhaps capture its offspring.

Of course, one couldn’t discount impulsive lads who lusted after the skin, flesh, bones, penis, intestines, testicles and other bodily components; intending greedily to convert them into cash. Knowing their painstakingly blood-soaked arrangement was becoming a wasted effort, those men would dive into the water rashly in pursuit. However, everyone could naturally guess the outcome of that.

The injured sea creatures were natural predators with great deadliness in the sea, while the water would impair the strength of humans. Thus, pursuing hunters would oftentimes fail to surface back up.

Nevertheless, Nanuke was already mentioned to be an expert hunter of legendary creatures. Along with the ‘Greenland Lethal weapon’, he was long prepared for this scenario.

Such an individual who had gone through the testing of time, was the real lethal weapon tempered through the vicissitudes of battles. He was truly the bane of all legendary sea creatures.
