Chapter 1017: Wash Your Neck and Wait (Part Two)
Also, they witnessed how the enraged Pedro completely shattered the battleship fleet of Byzantine that was created by both Byzantine and Chambord. There were still about 7,000 Byzantinian soldiers on the ships, and there were instructors and martial teachers that Chambord sent to this fleet to help them get stronger. These people all died under Pedro"s strikes.
This one-sided ma.s.sacre made all the Chambordians on the two Xuan"ge open their eyes wide in anger.
Unfortunately for Zenit, the enemy was too strong. Although [Black Pearl] and [Cyclops] attacked aggressively in revenge and sunk more than 60 moon-cla.s.s battleships of Barcelona, they couldn"t turn the battle around.
After all, the two Xuan"ge came in a hurry, and no top-tier masters of Chambord were with them.
Under the dominating strength of Pedro, except for barely saving a few hundred survivors, the two Xuan"ge couldn"t do much. Even [King Alexander], the Reverse Whale Battleship, was severely damaged after Pedro shattered its magic shield with a punch, and it sunk into the ocean. No one knew if the King of Chambord"s second disciple, Luffy, and the 500 Chambordian soldiers on it were still alive.
“Sparrow, we can"t let this continue. The magic supply on the ships will be depleted sooner or later.”
On [Cyclops], the old and cunning Barbossa barely kept his calm. After observing the situation, he knew that if they stayed here longer, it would only be more dangerous for them. He shouted, “Retreat! We must protect these two giant Xuan"ge and not let them fall into the hands of the enemies! Let"s go back and find Alexander His Majesty! Then, we can return and fight these b*stards!”
“d.a.m.n it!” Sparrow hit the deck of [Black Pearl] with his palm. Although he was unwilling to accept this, his logic won over his anger, and he turned his head and shouted, “Pa.s.s my order! Turn the ship around and exit the battlefield!”
Like invincible tiger sharks that were swimming in the sky, the Xuan"ge nimbly turned around and accelerated along the coastline, exiting the battlefield gracefully.
Sparrow and Barbossa were all cunning figures, and they knew that they couldn"t retreat by flying toward Chambord in a straight line. If Pedro chased them, he might discover the civilians of Byzantine who were fleeing, and he might kill them all.
Pedro punched out countless times, but he discovered in disappointment that the magic shields of the two Xuan"ge dimmed a little, but they were still firm and tough. After he used his full force, the magic shields didn"t look like they were going to collapse and shatter in a short time. Also, the magic shields were perfectly designed, and there weren"t any weaknesses or shortcomings.
“Hahaha! What? You don"t dare to fight me? So, there are cowards among Zenitians who only know how to escape?!”
Since Pedro couldn"t force the two Xuan"ge to stay, he laughed hysterically and tried the psychological tactic.
“Yuck! You dumb f*ck. Don"t bring shame to yourself with your meager abilities.”
Captain Sparrow stood on the deck and shouted while jumping up and down in anger. He raised his saber and pointed it at Pedro. Then, he spat and said in disdain, “If it weren"t for your shameless sneak-attack, our warriors of Chambord would have been prepared, and you b*stards would have been turned into meat paste already.”
Pedro laughed and replied, “So, you are Chambordians? Haha! So what? Even if everyone at Chambord came out, what can you do? You are only a little affiliated kingdom. If you all come, you will be turned into ghosts under my fists!”
“B*stard! Do you dare to tell us your name?” Sparrow wasn"t willing to say more, and he only asked this question in his cold voice.
“I"m the Head Commander of [Sea G.o.d"s Spear] of Barcelona, Rodríguez Pedro.”
“You are dead. The Human Emperor of the North will kill you. Wash your neck and prepare for it!” Sparrow replied as he looked at Pedro as if the latter were a dead man.
