Canbi lifted his head in astonishment, his mouth widening in silence. Yet his gaze quickly s.h.i.+fted to a resolute and carnal one.

"Aye! Cap"n, I"ll take care of it!"

2 minutes later. Soaked in blood, Canbi very viciously lugged Jeter"s head over.

In general, the state of affairs between pirates were terribly aghast. Occasionally, b.l.o.o.d.y fights would erupt, while mutinies would be incited to banish their captains. (As what happened to the beloved Jack Sparrow, which doesn"t need mentioning....)

Nevertheless, Chevalle remained an individual of principle and justice. Internal strife was absolutely prohibited amongst his crew. Once an incident occurs, both parties would be hung! With Canbi"s murderous deed, he had expressed his loyalty to Sheyan; utterly breaking off any prospect of returning to Captain Chevalle"s pirate fleets.

Observing this scene, Sheyan stood up and gestured for Canbi to take a knee. Then, he pulled out his saber and placed it on his shoulder.

"To reward your devotion…..I, Seaman Yan from the east, shall deprive Blood-Anchor"s strength and bestow it to ye. I hope you can exercise this strength to serve me well! However, this strength contains an immense risk. Once it exceeds the limitations of your body, you will face the brunt of its deadliness. Will ye accept this?"

Upon hearing Sheyan"s words, Canbi raised his head in doubt.

"Cap"n, It be rumored Blood-Anchor"s strength is bestowed by a wicked witch who fornicated wit" his ol"man. I heard it flows deep within his veins. Cap"n….ye, how can ye deprive his strength?"

Sheyan replied indifferently.

"This is my affair. You only need to consider this, will ye accept?"

Canbi was taken aback as he replied.

"To obtain powerful strength, I be willin" to pay any price!"

Upon hearing Canbi"s words, many marines and pirates revealed expressions of disbelief on their faces, as they whispered privately beneath. Instead, Commander Bath who had since been tied up exposed a despising countenance, as he thought with firm disdain.

"This moron is actually attempting to toy with these cunning and rapacious pirates, isn"t he courting death? Aren"t pirates sc.u.m who only eyes tangible gain? Without seeing actual strength, who would believe? Anyone can spew pompous words of deception, but only pirates wouldn"t buy such flattery."

However, Sheyan couldn"t care less about others, as he handed over the pair of "Ogre Gloves" to Canbi; allowing him to wear them. Evidently, Canbi had way of examining the properties of this equipment, but could only pretend to laud over this exceedingly ordinary gloves before Sheyan"s stern gaze. Then, he bowed before Sheyan to express his grat.i.tude, which was clearly just a superficial reaction.

Concurrently, the private whispers of the pirates grew louder, as though a clamorous gale had blew across them. One could sense the morale of everyone turning unstable. Canbi could clear sense this upheaval, as his face grew excruciatingly ugly while looking at Sheyan; appearing slightly terrified and bewildered.

No doubt, this was already part of Sheyan"s calculations. He suddenly ordered Canbi in an amicable manner.

"Though Blood-Anchor is dead, his c.u.mbersome anchor is inconveniencing our operations, while I"ve seen many simply winding past it when cleaning up the deck. Bring that grand anchor to me, but note, you alone are sufficient to carry out this effortless task."

Blood-Anchor"s strength was 33 points, and scaled to a peak of 66 points after equipping the gloves. Naturally, s.h.i.+fting the gigantic anchor would be beyond light for Canbi, whose strength had reached 35 points even without wearing the gloves.

Undoubtedly, when Canbi heard this order, he couldn"t help becoming startled. Deep within his heart, he doubted that Sheyan possessed such a mystical ability; thinking his captain was merely exhibiting a mere symbolic ceremony. Thus, he responded with great hesitation.

"Cap"n…...me wounds are not well after receiving cuts. Besides, that large anchor be normally carried by six of Blood-Anchor"s men..."

Truthfully speaking, Canbi was rather quick-witted. Not only did his words offer Sheyan a way out of embarra.s.sment, it also completely preserved his own face; being unable to s.h.i.+ft it due to his bodily wounds. Moreover, he further seized the opportunity to emphasised the difficulty of requiring six to lift it. How would he expect, that Sheyan"s face would turn downcast after listening to him, as he admonished.

"If I proclaim that ye are capable, then ye shall surely accomplish it! Even if I slice off your limbs, as long as I tell you to, then have faith for miracles can happen!"

Sheyan was practically roaring out his words with a snarling tone. Not a single word missed the ears of anyone on board. At this instant, the discussions and suspicions of their hearts were totally overlapped by their curiosity. Everyone"s gaze had congealed on Canbi!

Old Bath"s face also revealed an expression of disbelief, as he stammered to himself; as though wanting to speak up, but ultimately failing to do so. Only his pair of eyes remained tightly fixated on Canbi.

After Sheyan released this statement, Canbi immediately understood; even if he had to use his teeth today, he still had to move this gigantic anchor. Under such circ.u.mstances, a buried notion deep in his heart had subconsciously welled up...could it be cap"n wasn"t showin" off, but every word of his....be real?

Plains of silence from all four corners. Everyone adopted a revering att.i.tude as they paved the way for Canbi, as though Canbi was carrying an unexplainable mystery and awe. When Canbi restlessly arrived at the gigantic anchor, he heaved a deep breath and adjusted his belt. Then, he tugged along the iron chain with one hand, and emanated Blood-anchor"s manner of hoisting the chain on his shoulder.

He was initially attempting to exert his strength, surveying the stupendous weight of this terrifying great anchor; before he would decide on how to s.h.i.+ft it over.

Never had he expected that after issuing an experimental force, Canbi suddenly felt an unfathomable current of strength jolting from his glove; seeping deep into the bones of his limb. In a flash, he had broken through the boundaries of his prior strength!!!

Such strength, such insanity, it overwhelmed his body instantaneously!

"ARGHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Canbi wasn"t mentally prepared, before such unprecedented strength surged within him, as he roared with uncontrollable ecstasy. Originally probing first, this insanely astronomical strength inculcated from his right hand towards his four limbs!

In a split second, that terrifying great anchor had been abruptly pulled up, and was now braced by his shoulder!!! What sowed horror in the ma.s.ses, was that he had merely employed a single right hand to coil around the chain, before hoisting up this great anchor onto his shoulder. This wasn"t a feat that even Blood-Anchor could"ve accomplished!

Boom! Boom! Booom!!!! With each stomp releasing a violent tremor, Canbi marched towards Sheyan! Even the entire s.h.i.+p was swaying, and every marine, pirate, or captive had their jaws dropped to its furthest extent. Watching this scene with flabbergasted, reverential gazes.

They could confirm, this was event never to be forgotten in their entire lives; a tale that would circulate eternally amongst their descendants!!!

"The Cap"n can truly deprive another"s strength, the cap"n can truly bestow tis" strength to others!!"

The pirates who were whispering doubtfully in private, were all appalled; their bodies trembled violently. As for Old Bath, he was utterly stunned, his mouth repet.i.tively reciting the word "heavens"; as though he suffered from dementia....

Stomp by stomp, Canbi headed towards Sheyan. His present expression was numb and dull, one could tell he was wrapped in bliss and accomplishment. Cras.h.i.+ng the great anchor before Sheyan, cracks emerged from the pressurized wooden board.

After placing the great anchor down, Canbi very humbly crept to Sheyan"s front as his forehead touched the deck to express frightful allegiance.

"A sin, this I, I doubted, no no, I previously suspected cap"n was deceivin" me.....I deserve to be hung. With how mighty sir"s strength was, how could he be lying. How can I, a puny servant!!!"

One could fathom an indescribable agitation from Canbi"s incoherent speech; an agitation stemmed from the shock of attaining such astounding strength, delight as well as a fear of losing everything!

Sheyan noticed that Calbi didn"t appear as though he was injured, reckoning that Canbi hadn"t exhibited his full strength. As such, s.h.i.+fting that great anchor would probably only require 45 points of strength. Hence, he ignored Calbi and stood up. His eyes sweeping the field with austerity. In this moment, wherever his gaze landed, none dared to return contact. Imitating Canbi, the pirates knelt with fear and trepidation.

Obviously, Sheyan was very pleased the fruits of his actions. He finally lowered his head, and coldly admonished Canbi.

"Doubting me is indeed a sin. You must remember, i can deprive you of the strength I"ve bestowed. Besides, it was to me, whom Blood-Anchor perished to! On account that this be your first offense, carry on kneeling for any hour here. If you continue to render a humble and loyal dedication....I shall bestow greater strength of mysteries unto you!"

At present, innumerable undisguised glances of envy and admiration were casted on Canbi. Strictly speaking, kneeling on deck for an entire hour while the ma.s.ses behold, was an act of paramount embarra.s.sment. Instead, Canbi adorned a delighted and trembling voice as he lowered his head.

"Aye! Cap"n!"

Strings of regret and praises spreaded through the pirates. Some pirates remained deluded, that Sheyan would deprive Canbi"s strength and bestow it on themselves. Instead, such fantasies were merely a reverie right now.

(TN: The paragraph below is from chapter 56 of this volume. I felt that it would be appropriate to place it here because readers in china had problem understanding it, so author clarified with this)

Author"s note: The plundering ability has a definite chance of plundering the strongest equipment/weapon of an enemy"s corpse/s.h.i.+p. Without the ability under normal circ.u.mstances, plundering the equipment will result in merely an ordinary equipment. Only with the ability in plundering the equipment, the enchantment magic will then be absorbed into the equipment. This enchantment magic normally pertains to the strongest capability of the plundered enemy. That is why Sheyan"s crew can only sense that the equipments seems to have changed from something rotten into something magical, after receiving and testing it.
