Chapter 277: Section 65: Cannon Mountain Number
Emotions surged as the clash between the four Golden Level powerhouses gave many in the Justice Pirate Group the hope of taking advantage of the chaos.
But no matter how strongly they felt, everything still depended on the decision of the Dragon-man youth.
He was the Captain, and his word was law.
Countless eyes eagerly watched the Dragon-man youth.
His sharp Dragon Claw gently caressed the ship’s side while he gazed somberly ahead and uttered a single word, “Withdraw.”
Thus, the Justice Pirate Group started to turn the helm, steering away from the Gold and Silver Island.
...
The four major Golden Level pirate groups naturally had members remaining on the island. Seeing the Justice Pirate Group leave, they finally let their guard down.
After sailing almost a hundred nautical miles, Zong Ge approached the Dragon-man youth, “Captain, this distance should be enough. Any further and seizing the opportunity to strike at Gold and Silver Island wouldn’t be appropriate.”
But the Dragon-man youth shook his head, “No, abandon Gold and Silver Island, we’re leaving this place.”
Zong Ge was taken aback for a moment, his mouth opened, but he ultimately did not voice any objections.
The Captain’s authority was significant. Especially after defeating the Silver Hook Pirates and personally incinerating Golden Hook with dragon fire on the battlefield, the Dragon-man youth’s prestige had soared by leaps and bounds.
The five pirate ships sailed swiftly; to the pirates’ great regret, Gold and Silver Island was completely swallowed by the night.
And hundreds of nautical miles away.
A ship as massive as an island sat motionless upon the sea.
The ship resembled a disk, atop which stood an Iron-made hill.
Enclosed within the giant ship, in the central control hall, a middle-aged man was slurping noodles.
Slurp, slurp…
The man devoured the noodles, nearly swallowing them without chewing.
The man sported a sleek black pompadour that shined with grease.
Beneath the hair was a yellow face.
His most prominent feature was his big red nose.
The man sat cross-legged in a large leather chair, holding a bowl and happily indulging in his steaming hot oily noodles.
Just then, a mechanical voice sounded, “Five sailing ships detected leaving the trap zone. Estimated full disengagement in three minutes.”
“Oh?” The man paused mid-bite, noodles dangling from his mouth, and immediately communicated via telepathy, “Ship spirit, show me the footage.”
The next moment, a rectangular screen floated in front of the man.
On the screen, the five ships with their pirate flags fluttering high were indeed the Justice Pirate Group!
“Justice… The Justice Pirate Group? So it’s them,” the middle-aged man focused his eyes, reading the characters on the flags.
He tilted back his head, swallowing the noodles in his mouth in one go.
His bowl was now empty.
“Interesting!”
“After annihilating the Silver Hook Pirates, they made an urgent repair and then came to attack Gold and Silver Island?”
“These guys, didn’t they kill Golden Hook? And now they’re fleeing so fast!”
The middle-aged man stared at the image in front of him and sighed, “I really want to make a move and wipe out all these brats who messed with my plans in one fell swoop.”
“Captain, impatience can upset a great strategy,” the First Officer said, approaching the middle-aged man.
The First Officer was very tall, but also more corpulent.
His black and white fur was interspersed across his body, with eyes surrounded by dark circles—he was a Panda-man.
He didn’t come empty-handed, as he held a bowl of noodles in his hand.
He also wore a towering chef’s hat—his role on the ship wasn’t just as First Officer but also as a highly skilled chef.

The middle-aged Captain took the bowl, took a slurp, and turned his gaze back to the screen.
“That’s strange,” the Captain said, “The Mind Control Tower I just assembled seems to have no effect on these young folks. Look, those four Golden Pirates were all ensnared, but these guys are unaffected. With that speed, if we don’t act now, we’ll have to let them go.”
The Panda-man First Officer grinned, “To avoid leaving a heavy trail, the Mind Control Tower has been operating at low power. These people have just arrived; the other four Golden Pirates have been immersed far longer. It’s not unusual for this to happen. They’re just a group of silvers who fortunately killed Golden Hook, who was already wounded. Acting against them now would surely attract attention. At that point, the four Golden Pirates will most likely join forces on the spot.”
The Captain sighed, “Well, for the sake of landing the four big fish, let’s let this small fish go.”
Boom!
A haggard hag fell from the sky like a meteor, slamming into the ground.
The ground shook violently a few times, and as the dust settled, the ragged old woman’s enormous figure stood erect in the middle of a massive crater.
Xie Ba huffed coldly, unleashing a Combat Skill, and produced a black Light Blade.
The Spotted Poison Frog let out a shout, its hands fluttering so rapidly they created a series of afterimages. In just a few breaths, it hurled over a hundred spears.
Both the Light Blade and the spears struck the rough old lady, but she remained unhurt.
As the dust settled, everyone saw that the rough old lady was now clad in a thick sweater.
This was her famous Defensive Fighting Skills!
The rough old lady sneered, opened her mouth, and spat out a dozen teeth.
The teeth streaked through the air, moving with agility, and lunged at the other three.
Xie Ba and the Spotted Poison Frog dodged swiftly, while Nai Le furrowed his brows tightly, sucking on a pacifier and stubbornly blocking the attack.
“I’m angry! I’m going to spank you!” Nai Le cried out in a baby voice.
But the next moment, his attack came to a slight halt.
Not just him, the other three also froze in their movements, looking up at the night sky.
From the night sky came the whistling sound of a grand “Meteor Shower” suddenly falling down.
It was bombs!
A barrage of bombs.
The bombs plummeted down, directly covering the heart of the island’s battlefield.
Furthermore, any place where pirates gathered was baptized with artillery fire.
Boom, boom, boom…
In an instant, the thunderous boom of artillery fire roared like thunder. Even the Justice Pirate Group, who had withdrawn to a distance, heard the noise and saw flashes of light at sea.
“There are others!”
“This artillery fire is fierce…”
“Damn it, let’s kill this troublemaker first, then we can fight!”
The Spotted Poison Frog, the rough old lady, and the others were extremely angry. They were unharmed, but their subordinates suffered heavy casualties amidst the bombardment.
The one firing the bombs was the mysterious disc-shaped ship.
The ship spirit was reporting, “Bomb launch complete, now proceeding with deployment.”
“Mechanical Golem Team One assembled completely, checking and opening the deployment wells.”
“All deployment wells open.”
“Beginning drop countdown.”
“3, 2, 1, deploy!”
Thump, thump, thump.
One after another, the coffin-like bombs soared into the sky, quickly reaching the airspace above Gold and Silver Island.
Then, these rectangular bombs began to fall.
Some disintegrated in mid-air, while others continued to crash onto the ground.
Out of the coffin bombs stepped a horde of mechanical golems.
These golems were all two meters tall, with glittering blue electric eyes and heavily armored, resembling small giants.
The golems’ defenses were outstanding as they began to attack the pirates on the island.
“Imperial mechanical golems!”
“So many… The ambush must be that Cannon Mountain ship.”
“Damn, how could they be here?”
All four Golden Pirates were considering retreat.
But at that moment, a middle-aged man, standing atop a coffin bomb, flew above their heads. Looking down at them, he laughed, “Don’t you all run away now!”
“Shiny face!”
“Damn it, it’s the Imperial Navy Vice Admiral.”
“Retreat quickly.”
The four pirates’ faces changed dramatically, and they turned and ran wildly.
Shiny Face chuckled disdainfully, “Think you can still run away now?”
The next moment, an aura of the Holy Domain Level emanated from his body.
