Chapter 30
On the shimmering blue sea, the Rocky Pirates finally spotted the Aitrias Pirates' ship.
After nearly a month drifting at sea, the sight made the Rocky Pirates' eyes light up.
In the world of pirates, not every crew enjoyed the luxurious conditions of the Aitrias Pirates.
For many, the only entertainment was drinking crowded together on deck every day.
Over time, the constant confinement and alcohol made the pirates irritable and irrational.
This often led to violent infighting on board.
"Wahahahaha! Looks like a bunch of little lambs!"
"Boys, head straight for that ship ahead!"
"Steal their women and treasure for me—big rewards for everyone!"
As the two ships drew closer, the Rocky Pirates' captain burst into loud laughter.
"Yes, Captain!"
At his command, excitement spread across the Rocky Pirates' faces.
At that moment, they looked less like men and more like beasts wearing human skin.
Every pirate's eyes burned with savage greed.
Soon the two ships came within touching distance under the watchful eyes of both crews.
When the Rocky Pirates saw that the Aitrias ship was filled with stunningly beautiful women, their eyes filled with naked desire.
Even Rocky, who frequented pleasure districts, couldn't help swallowing hard at the sight of so many beauties.
Then he noticed the handsome man standing among them.
Jealousy nearly drove him mad.
He worked himself to death robbing treasure every day and never got待遇 like this.
How could some pretty boy live better than him?
Right now, Rocky was already fantasizing about how he would torture this infuriating little pretty boy later.
On the deck of the Flying Bird, the Aitrias crew saw the undisguised lustful stares from the other side.
The women—who had all suffered greatly in the past—felt nothing but rage.
They waited eagerly for the ships to close the gap so they could end these men's lives with weapons or bare hands.
They would use these pirates' blood to honor the pain they had once endured!
Finally, the two ships stopped just two meters apart.
Seeing the moment had come, Annie was the first to act—using Moon Step, she leaped straight onto the Rocky Pirates' deck.
Seeing Annie charge ahead, Fiona refused to be outdone. With Green Bamboo at her waist and black high heels clicking, she followed with a powerful Moon Step jump.
Seeing both women rush toward the enemy, every combat-ready member of the Aitrias Pirates used Moon Step to follow behind them.
In moments, they were all aboard the Rocky Pirates' ship.
Facing these despicable pirates, the Aitrias fighters revealed cruel, merciless smiles.
They charged forward without hesitation.
Vilin watched the battle begin and showed an appreciative look.
As long as no one's life was in immediate danger, Vilin would not intervene.
Only by fighting themselves could they truly sharpen their combat skills.
The Rocky Pirates were stunned to see these "little lambs" daring to board their ship first.
But they quickly recovered.
With greedy, burning eyes, they rushed toward the Aitrias women.
The moment the two sides clashed, the pirates' earlier contempt and underestimation vanished completely.
They watched in horror as the two leading women killed several of their comrades in an instant.
Fiona saw that the Rocky captain wasn't a swordsman and immediately lost interest in him.
She began scanning for her own opponent.
Soon she spotted a burly middle-aged man wearing a long sword at his waist.
Without hesitation, Fiona charged toward him, cutting down any pirates who blocked her path along the way.
The middle-aged swordsman saw Fiona rushing at him with sword drawn.
His face turned grave.
As Fiona slashed toward him, the two quickly engaged in fierce combat.
Rocky watched in stunned silence as his men were brutally slaughtered by these beautiful women.
Where were the easy prey he expected?
This was nothing like what he had imagined.
While he was dazed, a gunshot rang out.
Suddenly, searing pain exploded in his chest.
The agony snapped him awake.
Rocky looked ahead.
He saw a black-haired woman in a purple spaghetti-strap top holding an extended revolver pointed at his head.
Black smoke still drifted from the barrel.
"Yo, wearing inner armor, huh?"
"Big sis is very unhappy right now~"
When Rocky saw the reinforced revolver pressed against his forehead, fear surged through him.
His body froze stiff.
Just as he cautiously reached for the pistol at his waist—
Bang!
A gunshot echoed.
A bullet faster than sound exploded through his brain.
In an instant, the world went silent for him.
"Good luck doesn't favor scum like you!"
Seeing Rocky dead, Caitlin elegantly spun around.
She twirled her revolver and continued shooting pirate after pirate.
When the Rocky Pirates saw their captain killed by a woman, disbelief filled their eyes.
Some pirates were already terrified and began fleeing in all directions.
Others dropped to their knees, begging the Aitrias crew for mercy.
But these pirates were mercilessly cut down by the Aitrias fighters.
Realizing there was no hope of survival, the remaining pirates went completely mad and launched desperate counterattacks.
But it was futile.
Soon they were all slaughtered by the blood-boiling women.
With the fodder wiped out, Vilin turned his attention to Fiona.
He saw her unleashing a frenzied assault on the middle-aged swordsman.
Her ink-green blade continuously struck at his openings.
Sparks flew beautifully with every clash of steel.
As Fiona's attacks grew fiercer, her opponent quickly faltered.
Seeing his breathing become chaotic and ragged, Fiona lost interest.
"One Sword Style – Mysterious Moon Slash!"
With a sharp cry, a crescent-shaped sword light curved around the swordsman's guard.
In one clean stroke, she cleaved him in half.
Seeing her opponent fall dead beneath her blade, Fiona sheathed her sword with lingering satisfaction.
She turned toward Vilin and gave him a sweet smile.
Vilin smiled in approval at how rapidly Fiona's strength had improved.
Leaning against Vilin's chest, Rouge watched the battle with a slight sense of regret.
If she weren't pregnant, she would have joined the fight herself.
With the battle concluded, Vilin quickly absorbed every last drop of the pirates' life energy, storing it within himself.
Noticing that some crew members had been injured in the fight, Vilin raised both hands.
Life Forest!
The Aitrias crew watched as strands of green life energy flowed from the surrounding vines.
The energy quickly entered the wounded bodies.
Before their eyes, the injuries healed at an astonishing speed—without leaving even a scar.
All the female crew members cheered happily as they saw their wounds vanish completely.
"Captain Vilin! I love you!"
Seeing how delighted they were, Vilin naturally didn't want to dampen the mood.
"Everyone—start collecting the spoils!"
"All loot will be distributed by Aurora!"
Hearing about loot distribution, the crew immediately thought of beautiful clothes and jewelry.
Every member dove into the search with excited energy.
