Chapter 434: Chapter 433: Have you seen such a level of self-sacrifice?
"Gore Sparrow!"
Bai Yunrui’s expression was solemn, and he gritted his teeth as he slowly pronounced the name of the warship’s owner.
Beside him, Hao Yuntun exclaimed, "Isn’t this old guy always one to bully the weak and fear the strong, always hiding in the back to pick up scraps... Why is he so bold this time?"
"Perhaps he thinks we’re easy prey?"
The Dubhe Military District’s Commander in Chief, Xu Liang, had a heavy expression, staring intently at that Monarch-level Battleship, anger flickering in his eyes as he coldly shouted, "It’s perfect timing; we’re going to take back what we lost back then!"
The Cosmic Pirate Group is infamous in the Cosmos, but few know... Pirate King Gore Sparrow was originally a Blue Star person.
He is a mixed-blood of the Baoxue Empire and the Great Xia Empire, who didn’t achieve success in the Baoxue Empire, later followed his mother to Great Xia, where he emerged prominently, eventually rising to the rank of captain!
However, at the most critical moment of the Polar Star Battlefield...
He directly instigated a mutiny among his subordinates, killing those warriors who refused to follow him, and then fled with the Great Xia Empire’s warship, the Sea God, renaming it the Sea King. It became the foundation of his reign across the cosmos as the Pirate King.
The existence of this warship was a humiliation for the entire Polar Star Battlefield.
And now, seeing this warship flamboyantly modified and appearing in the enemy camp.
Bai Yunrui and others might not think much, but for an elder like Xu Liang, it was simply an unbearable humiliation!
"Don’t forget, the Pirate King is not just about this one warship, now the pirates’ power is as strong as some small civilizations."
Hao Yuntun was quite composed, earnestly saying, "Now that even the Sea King has been deployed, it undoubtedly means continuous reinforcement nearby... This is a force enough to disrupt the current balance, Lao Bai, do we have a chance to win?!"
Bai Yunrui seriously observed the cosmic sand table’s situation, his pupils subtly trembling, as if there was a precise instrument in his brain constantly calculating.
After a long time, he couldn’t help but exhale deeply, sighing, "No, we can’t win, the whole army should retract, the enemy is strong and caught us off guard... Unless the Sea King suddenly defects... Otherwise, once they enter the battlefield, our odds are infinitely close to zero!"
He lamented, "Especially with the position the Sea King entered, it’s right between our weak points. Gore Sparrow is indeed shrewd. His strength is far inferior to any side in the Polar Star Battlefield or the Mysterious races of the heavens, but now, he is the last straw tipping the scales."
"Damn it!"
Xu Liang roared in anger.
"Wait!!!"
Bai Yunrui suddenly paused, a look of shock appearing on his face as he stared at the real-time sand table, asking, "Was I not wrong? The Pirate King is the final straw tipping the scales, but is there a chance he is actually here to help us?"
"What? Lao Bai, has a donkey kicked your head?"
"What nonsense are you thinking? If the Pirate King helps us, I’ll eat this table right here."
Hao Yuntun and Xu Liang both scoffed at Bai Yunrui’s words.
And at this moment...
Suddenly, a messenger rushed over, shouting, "Commander, chaos has broken out in the enemy’s rear camp, it seems there’s an internal conflict!"
"What?"
The group was simultaneously startled.
Bai Yunrui looked at the turmoil on the sand table, even if he couldn’t see clearly what was happening, he still asked, "Is it chaos starting at coordinates 375, 158?"
The messenger nodded.
"Elder Xu, this time, you really can eat the table."
Bai Yunrui glanced at Xu Liang and said, "They are really here to help us, plus the Pirate King is indeed cunning and shameless. He must have first gained the enemy’s trust, letting the warship infiltrate the enemy’s core area, and then launched an attack, disrupting them completely... Now, the enemy is in chaos."
He spoke faster and faster, saying, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Fearless, Fangyi, Xihe... Move out, penetrate from position 375, 192, tear through the enemy’s encirclement, and charge to the enemy’s rear!"
He immediately called for the deployment of three Monarch-level Battleships, clearly intending to seize all opportunities at this point.
Xu Liang exclaimed, "Wait, do you know what’s happening?"
"The Sea King has defected!"
Bai Yunrui said, "Can you imagine the effect of a Monarch-level Battleship suddenly erupting in the heart of the enemy? The enemy is suffering heavy casualties... This chaos cannot be faked, victory is fleeting, this is our only chance!"
"But Gore has no reason to help us."
"Maybe he’s about to die and wants to return to his roots?"
Hao Yuntun stared intently at the real-time sand table, unable to see the specifics, but much clearer about what was happening.
The numerous hostile warships around the suddenly appearing red dot were disappearing.
As it’s said, when a Monarch-level Battleship fires at full force, if the enemy is unprepared, it can destroy dozens of warships in an instant at the very least.
He didn’t know the Sea King’s intentions, but the current situation surpassed any deception tactic; everyone has heard of sacrificing a car to protect the general, but who has heard of sacrificing the general to protect the car?
With a general, all other pieces, including the opponent, have meaning.
At this time.
Within the Chi Yu clan camp.
Tian Haiyi was already stunned, shocked as she listened to her subordinates’ reports, saying in amazement, "Wha... did you say the Sea King suddenly defected... Wait... they..."
She was stunned as she looked at the images her subordinates pulled up.
It showed the Sea King, in the middle of their warship formation, suddenly unleashing a torrent of cannon fire, satellite cannons, light-speed cannons, along with gravity polarization beams...
Various weapons of immense power erupted instantly.
And almost every shot hit the most sensitive areas of their warships.
While the warship’s power continued, its path left a trail of sparks and lightning, sinking countless surrounding warships.
Caught off guard by a Monarch-level Battleship infiltrating, the casualties were greater than the numbers suffered in previous fierce battles over several days.
"Xiaoya! Well done!"
The one controlling these weapons was Xiaoya.
In order to ensure maximum damage, four rookies bravely took over the Monarch-level Battleship’s controls, fully opening the weapon systems to Xiaoya.
The Thermal Energy Weapons Xu Lingjun snatched from Old Gor’s Heavy Armory were all installed on the Monarch-level ship.
Coupled with the Monarch-level Battleship’s own equipped weapons, the destructive power was so strong that everyone watched with delight.
Yet the real boon was only the first wave, as the enemy’s counterattack quickly arrived...
Along with Tian Haiyi’s tearful and frantic orders.
Countless cannon fire came towards their direction.
"Xiaoya, ignore us, we’ll take control!"
The four’s words fell, and the Sea King took several hits, yet over ninety percent of the cannon fire shot at empty space.
The four idiots couldn’t control the warship well, so it remained motionless while the cannon shots aimed at their trajectory, predicting the Sea King’s movement, missed entirely.
"Understood, master!"
Xiaoya responded with even more intense attacks, striking at the enemy ships from all directions. The enemy had to be cautious not to hit their own, but around Xu Lingjun were only enemies, not a single friendly...
The warship tumbled like a loach, intense cannon fire porcupine-like, surrounded by allied warships all around, leaving the enemy’s numerous warships with no way to strike.
