SSS-Class Ranker Return

Compass of Desire (3)

"stop."

In an instant, it was someone who came down from the second floor that stopped the pirates.

[Black Cloud Pirates First Mate Loros][Lv 408]

The first mate of the Black Cloud Pirates. Since he was level 400 like an executive, he understood the difference between them and Lokan at once.

“Everyone get away. You are not your opponent.”

Surely he would not have thought that he would make a riot by using his creative skills in the lawless port, but even so, the result would have been the same.

Moreover, if you are not afraid of the famous Black Cloud Pirates in Lawless Port, then Rokan is also a class that is confident in battle.

That is why he came forward and silenced the commotion.

“You want to meet the captain? What is your business?”

“Well, do you deserve to be heard?”

But Lokan wasn't terrified at all. grand master? First mate? So what?

Although nominally on the same level, in terms of combat power or whatever it is, Lokan was not at the level of any other Grand Master, so he straightened his back and chest and responded proudly and arrogantly.

"what?"

So it is natural for the first mate's expression to be distorted.

But he also bit his lip to see if he didn't want to make a fuss.

If he doesn't deserve it, he'll pay a hard price later on.

“… … Come up.”

Loros turns around and goes back up to the second floor.

Lokan followed him up without expression.

I felt a tingling in the back of my head because of the poisonous Black Cloud Pirates, but it wouldn't end in a stinging degree if there were anyone attacking, so I proudly went up to the second floor.

The place where the captain was was not on the second floor.

It was only after going up to the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th floors that I was able to face the executives of the Black Cloud Pirates.

[Black Cloud Pirates Captain, Hookton][Lv 433]

A whopping level 433 strongman. Besides, the ten executives sitting around him were all at the same level as Grand Masters.

profit.

But I'm not the only one to be intimidated by that.

As if facing people he had known before, he pulled out a chair and sat down before he heard the call to sit, crossed his legs and faced the captain.

“Did you say you want to see me?”

The hook-toned face that reveals the yellow and smiles makes him want to slap him for some reason, but Lokan has his heart wide.

He faced the purpose of coming here.

‘Use of the Bell of Truth.’

Using the bell of truth before the question.“Do you have a compass of desire?”

“A compass of desire? Where did you hear such nonsense... … .”

“Are you there or not? Let me just say the conclusion.”

There was an energy of madness in Rokan's low voice. The power to make the listener feel a sense of fear.

As it is the same Grand Master level, it should have little effect originally, but Rokan had the power to remove the fear immunity and resistance effects of those around him.

He imprinted on them all that Lokan wasn't an opponent they could ignore just by hearing his voice.

“… … I don't have Had it been, I would have already put the lawless port in my grasp.”

[truth]

Lokan's impression was slightly frowned at the authenticity of the paper of truth.

Did I get it wrong, or did the bartender tell me a rumor?

When he thought he was bothered, Hookton spoke again.

“If you have heard one, you must also give one. Is that the only reason you found me? Did you dare interrupt the rest of the Black Cloud Pirates just to ask?”

There was a nuance that he could start a fight depending on the answer, but Rokhan looked straight at him.

"right. Now it's my turn So, do you know the material of the compass of desire?”

one sentence answer. The opponent argued, but Lokan responded with an answer. If you can't stand it and jump on it, it's enough to fight.

I don't know if there is any kind of tacit discipline in this lawless port, but Rokhan doesn't have to keep it. It was enough to kill them all, destroy them, and then run away.

“Kah ha ha! He's a bold guy. Okay, I'll answer you. Know."

Because of this, Lokan prepared for a quick fight, but Hookton's reaction was more enthusiastic than expected. He smiled broadly, acknowledging Rokhan's boldness, and he responded.

There is no way to know if it is real or not because the Bell of Truth has already been written, but even if I listened to it later, I needed to put it in.

“Good.”

“Then is it my turn? What pirate group do you belong to?”

“Nowhere. Playing only in the sea is not my hobby.”

“You don’t belong? Then who's... … .”

“I have only one question. Is it my turn this time? So who owns the compass of desire?”

“Oh my, that was a mistake. OK, no answer. As far as I know, the damn Black Pearl Pirates have them. They're newcomers, so I'm having a hard time finding them too. Ah, this information is a service.”

“Captain!”

When I saw the subordinates trying to stop me in surprise, I didn't think it was a lie. Because I didn't have time to write and play, and my acting skills were excellent.

But Lokan did not believe that Hookton had answered this out of a simple favor.

He was thinking of using Lokan to capture the Black Pearl Pirates, or to retake the Compass of Desire that he stole from them.

This time, it's Hookton's turn to ask a question.

Hookton, who dissuaded his subordinates with a grin, made an unexpected remark.

“Dude, don’t you want to come under me? If you accept it, I will give you the position of an executive.”

“Of course, no. How about you come under me? I will keep you as captain.”

“Such cheeky!”

But the answer is fixed. Who dares to call who?

At Rokan's answer, the servants jumped up from their seats, but Rokan was not nervous at all. Even if they attack, I have the confidence to even counterattack.

On the other hand, Hookton only laughed badly.

“Heh heh heh, he’s also a big guy. He's just not satisfied with the pirates, is he? Okay, let's see how far he can go. Do you have any more questions?”

“You said you were looking for the compass of desire, what are you going to find with it?”

I don't know if he's the captain or if he's frightened, but Hookton still smiles.

“Of course, what is power? treasure? A lot of coins? After all, aren’t these things that will roll in on their own if you have the strength?”

“If possible, it would be better if you told me about the Black Pearl Pirates.”

“It’s not difficult.”

100 times right. It was a story that added a little credibility, but in the end, the pirate, Lokan decided to believe only half of what he had said so far.

The information about the Black Pearl Pirates that Hookton delivered to Lokan was more than expected. Their composition, their scope of activity, and their estimated current location.

There may be something deceived or hidden, but I thought that there would be no big problem in tracking them down.

“Hmm, now that I’m here, shall I make one too?”

But Lokan didn't come out of Booty Port right away. As a result of thinking quietly, he decided that there was nothing wrong with creating a pirate corps.

Once you register as a pirate, your notoriety will increase, but conversely, there are quite a few things you can get.

For example, if you attack other pirates or merchant ships, you can capture the ships or obtain additional treasures from them.

decline in reputation? For Rokhan, who has already grown high enough, it has no effect whatsoever. Unless he's a lawless protest lord.

So Lokan immediately headed to the pirate registry in Booty Bay.

[The Road Pirates have been established.]

[Current number of crew members: 10]

The pirate registration process is simple. After finding one ship and the minimum number of people, it was enough to pay a certain amount of coins and register.

The problem was the minimum number of people, but that was not a problem either. It's enough to just buy it at Baeya Shipyard, and it's not necessary that a sailor has to be a user.

After paying the coin and hiring nine D-class crew members, the crew problem was solved neatly, and the ship purchased only one small galley.

It's full of money, but it's not going to sail properly anyway, so why do you need a good boat? Besides, there is a good system called 'capture'.

After completing the establishment and registration of the pirates, Lokan left the crew at the lawless port and went out to sea alone.

“It was over there?”

With the information Hookton gave us, it's not difficult to get directions.

Although the Black Pearl Pirates' field of activity is wide and moves very erratically, the approximate direction can be estimated because the information is up-to-date.

In addition, the goal was also approximable.

land of grudges.

It is an island where it is said that a character who was called a pirate left everything behind, and it is also called the grave of pirates.

Countless pirates searched for his power and treasure, and it is said that he returned to his bones without achieving his purpose.It was also the place the Black Pearl Pirates were looking for.

“It’s been a while since we departed, so we need to speed up this one too. Kai! The rider of legends!”

Kyut!

Lokan climbed on Kai's back, which had been transformed into a great roof.

Because of the unstable mana and gusts of wind spread out in the sea, even some flying monsters lose their balance and fall down, but if they are transformed into a large shelf, they can fly enough.

Because of this, Lokan flew across the sea at the fastest speed possible while Kai maintained the shape of the great roof.

At the end of the duration, he reenters the sea and accelerates to submergence, then returns to Kai and speeds up when the cooldown returns.

Five days for that.

Finally, traces of the Black Pearl were found.

“It’s a sign of battle.”

To be precise, it was the trace of a wrecked ship. From the traces of the thorough destruction of a probable number of ships, Lokan realized that it was the work of Black Pearl.

It was understood that the fleet and the fleet did not collide, but rather the appearance of a fast ship.

“Do you think you have taken the right direction? Kai, let's go!"

Turning his doubts into certainty, he began flying again at full speed.

[You have entered the sea of ​​resentment.]

And again after a while, he confirmed that he was right.

The system informed him that he had entered the field called the Sea of ​​Grief.

The land of resentment, and the sea of ​​resentment.

Since it was a name that seemed to be related to anyone, he speeded up even more and searched for something worthy of an island.

'see.'

There was a thick fog in the sea of ​​resentment.

Several ships were detected in it, but Lokan ignored it.

[Grudge Ship]

Because they were none other than ghost ships.

A ship of pirates who continue to wander the sea of ​​resentment as a skeleton gourd or a ghost.

Normally, it would be difficult to tell if it was a ghost ship or a normal pirate ship because of the mist of grudge, but Rokan had eyes that could see through all things.

Mist of grudge was also blurry to see if it was at a normal level, but it was sufficiently capable of distinguishing between a ghost ship and a normal pirate ship.

👌👌👌👌

And the same goes for Kai.

He was chasing the fog by moving his wings to see if the fog of resentment that tried to erode the target was burdensome if he stood still, but it was somehow able to withstand it because of his character full of attribute power.

“Hold on a little more!”

Whoo!

As if to end this pain quickly, Kai's big wings swayed in a whirlwind. At the same time, the environment around him was pushed away.

After about 10 minutes, Lokan was able to finally find the target.
