Since One-eyed saw Tonk's miraculous ability, his mental state had become much more positive. He saw the hope of revenge and believed in Tonk's strength as a captain. He didn't go to the bottom of it. Everyone has their own secrets.

If it was not the Ring of Sea Vortex Crazy Fish was about to run out of use, it would be enough for Tonk to dominate one side. But now there were only three chances left. He decided to keep it for the Black Toad Pirates.

The experiment at that time allowed him to understand the forming speed and control method of the vortex.

Because it would take some time for the vortex to form, it needed to be well controlled to activate it when the ship just passes by. If it was a little slower, the enemy would have already passed through the position of the whirlpool. It was impossible to chase it with a slow whirlpool. If it was a little faster, the enemy would avoid the whirlpool after seeing the whirlpool.

The slow nature of creating vortexes had also become a drawback of this ring.

One-Eyed's treasure had made a great contribution, further enriching the strength of the Black Pearl.

After a lot of gold coins were smashed in, the building of the Black Pearl was built in full swing. High-priced dragon skin wood was used. As the name suggests, this wood was as hard as dragon skin. It was an excellent defensive wood.

Tonk also went to a few blacksmith shops and built some swords, spears, swords, and halberds, as well as some long weapons often used in naval battles. He heard that there was a dwarf craftsman in Port Carlin who was very good at craftsmanship, so he deliberately made a big sword and threw the broken sword away. However, this big sword was still ordinary equipment.

Looking for a dwarf to build a weapon, but it was still an ordinary level, which showed how rare the equipment above the boutique was.

In addition to cold weapons, he also bought a lot of muskets and bows, and arrows. He planned to organize a musket team and a bow and arrow team, and arrange this group of people in the boathouse. During the battle, they would fire sniper's shoot.

Tonk's current character interface had undergone a lot of changes.

Tonk had been tossing around these days. Many of the things he had done were piracy. Such as robbing prisons and fighting. His points were all added up in this way. Another part was obtained by fighting various water monsters at sea before. These scattered piracy acts could only increase a few points at a time, and the rise was very slow.

In addition, due to the increase in comprehensive strength, more recruitment options had been activated. Among them, there was one more [Bow Sailor]. Recruitment required 6 points, which just realized Tonk's idea of ​​enhancing the long-range strike power.

Tonk went to the beach alone that night and used the recruiting option, recruiting ten sailors in total. After he clicked the options, he saw a group of sailors emerge from the sea. When the sailors saw Tonk, it was like seeing relatives, embracing and laughing

Tonk brought the new force to the hotel, mixed with the old sailors, and warned them not to wander around during this time.

Although there were more than 30 sailors, there was still some lack in the number. Tonk went to the Red Rose Tavern again and unexpectedly met Emmond again. Tonk paid a deposit before, but he disappeared after that. Emmond found all the sailors and later had to disband.

It was easy for a guy like Emmond to do these things. And he had a wide network of contacts. Tonk entrusted Emmond to find sailors again. Emmond was naturally happy to make money. In two days, he found more than 70 sailors. Everyone was tall and big and was willing to be a pirate to earn the money.

Tonk signed contracts with these sailors. Although everyone knew that they were going to be a pirate, the pirates also paid attention to the rules.

Speaking of the rules of pirates, it had to mention the mysterious Code of Pirates.

The "Pirate Code" was an ancient piracy manual with more than a thousand pages, which recorded everything about pirates. It is kept in the pirate city of one of the biggest pirates. The copy of the "Pirate Code" was in the hands of several big pirates, and there was nothing special about it. But the original version of the Code of Pirates was said to have great power.

The Black Pearl had finally been remodeled. After the sea trial was correct, it was docked at the dock and ready to sail at any time.

Tonk ordered the sailors to stand by on the ship. He and One-eyed went out to inquire about the news, looking for a suitable target, and preparing to go to sea to make a business. The two frequently haunted public places such as pubs and brothels, collecting all kinds of useful information including the whereabouts of those merchant ships and where naval warships were patrolling.

After a few days, Tonk already had four or five suitable goals. He began to make the final preparations, so he bought food and rum everywhere. At sea, sailors would be desperate enough to jump into the sea if they didn't have rum to drink.

Tonk whistled and walked like a leisurely stroll. One-eyed followed closely, carrying a sack of preserved fruit, dried fruit, mustard, sour, and horseradish rapeseed on his shoulders, which could replace fresh vegetables for vitamin supplementation.

Although they didn't plan to go on a long voyage, they still prepared some at the strong request of One-eyed.

There was a splendid mansion on the side of the road. The large pillar at the entrance required three people to hold hands to enclose it. The steps were all marble. A man with a mole next to his nose walked out with his head held high, and two guards pushed a weak woman to the ground.

Tonk happened to pass by here. He saw the man turned out to be Nahum the pharmaceutical profiteer. He had a feud with Nahum, and it was temporarily inconvenient to cause trouble. So he had to avoid the corner of the wall and be more than 20 meters away from the door of the other party's house.

The woman was a human with healthy wheat-colored skin. She was weak and small, half lying on the ground, looking up at Nahum with tears in her eyes.

Nahum smiled like a statue on the roof.

"Since you don't agree with my proposal, there's nothing to talk about. I only like obedient women in bed, like... your sister." Nahum recalled the night and then poked the guard next to him on the chest, and ordered, "Listen, don't allow her to come in again. If she messes up again, send her to the police station."

"Nahum, you will be cursed by the god of disaster!" the woman cried.

Nahum didn't look back, and said contemptuously, "Hmph, it seems to be your starfish island that is now cursed by the god of disaster."

The woman stood up, and a pool of tears remained on the ground. She was about to pounce on Nahum but was stopped by the guard's big hand and pushed to the ground again.

The square-faced guard turned his head to see that Nahum had gone far, turned around and waved his hands, and said, "You go, don't embarrass us. Otherwise, you will end up like your sister. After Nahum tired of her, she was sold to the Slave Route Black Triangle. It's a place uglier than hell."

The woman's eyes flashed. Her mouth pursed, and she groaned in pain. She was not injured, and the pain came from her heart.

One-eyed heard this. He snorted, obviously knowing something.

"What is the black triangle?" Tonk asked One-eyed.

"It's the ugliest place in the world. Compared with the black triangle, the pirate city is as pure as a little sheep."

Tonk rolled his eyes and urged him to be direct.

"Starting from the five major empires, south to Zendrick, then from Zendrick West to the ancient continent, and finally from the ancient continent back to the five major empires. These three routes happen to have warm currents, which can improve the speed of navigation and provide convenience. The high sea traffic made the slave trade flourish, and there were slave exchanges in three places. These three routes are collectively known as the Slave Route Black Triangle!”

Next, One-eyed told Tonk roughly about the slave trade.

More than 100,000 slaves were shipped all over the world every year. Some were lucky enough to work day and night. A larger number die at sea during transportation. In the era of great voyages, the slave trade was a legal transaction. The man behind the curtain and beneficiaries were the five noble and powerful empires.

Slave trade, rampant pirates, battles for hegemony at sea, voyages and plunders, occupation of colonies... The era of great voyages was not a bright era worthy of being recorded in the annals of history, but an era of badass. An era of the strong prey on the weak!

In this era, intelligent races had moved the law of the jungle to the sea, that's all.

Tonk pouted and said, "If I were on the slave ship, I would have to scuttle the ship even if I broke the bones off and used them as picks!"

"Well said. If everyone thinks like you, there will be no slaves." One-eyed felt a shock throughout his body when he heard it.

Outlaws like them would rather die in battle than become slaves of others.

During the conversation, the woman was still begging and refused to leave. The guard was getting impatient, and his anger was getting bigger and bigger.

"Damn, I told you to leave quickly. Why are you still crying here? Stop talking, get out of here!" The tall guard grabbed the woman's collar and slapped her heavily. The woman was beaten until her cheeks were red and swollen, and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.

The guard threw the woman on the ground, still swearing.

Some people were watching from a distance, kindly persuading the woman to leave, not to provoke Nahum, who was rich and powerful in the area.

But the woman seemed to be carrying a heavy mission. She stubbornly refused to leave and stood up again. Her tears mixed with blood and dripped from her chin.

"I won't go unless Nahum promises me to lower the price of medicine. Otherwise, my clansman will die of illness!"

"Stinky bitch." The guard spat. If he couldn't even clean up a woman, he wouldn't keep the job. He raised his big fan-like hand and swung it heavily again.

The woman closed her eyes. Her curved eyelashes trembling.

The onlookers held their breaths.

A figure appeared like lightning. With a figure like a knight charging, his movements were as clean as a knife breaking water. He grasped the thick wrist. With a little force, the guard who was about to beat someone let out a howl like a slaughtering pig. His thick wrist was crushed and collapsed. His bones were on the verge of breaking.

The woman looked up at the man. The other's body was in a backlit state, and she could only see the sonorous outline.

"Bullying a woman, do you have any respect?" Tonk asked with a dark face, looking at the guard coldly.

"Pain, pain, let go..." The guard bent down in pain. His square face was covered in a cold sweat, and he threw his fists to hit Tonk.

Tonk flipped his wrist, and the body of the guard turned around like a spinning top. Under the severe pain, his fists also shriveled.

Seeing this, another guard wanted to help, but just as he was about to draw his sword, his head was blocked by the muzzle of the gun.

"Don't move, a musket can easily go off." One-eyed said lightly, his fingers holding the gun habitually half-buckled.

"Ah! Let go now, my wrist is about to break. Please, please." The guard who was restrained screamed, and he felt that the oriental man in front of him looked like a demon.

"If you have balls in the future, find a man to single out. Don't take your force to women."

Tonk let go of his hand, and the guard staggered back, leaning against the wall to check his wrist for fear that it was really broken. Tonk winked at One-eyed and signaled to leave. One-eyed maintained the position of holding the gun and used the muzzle of the gun to block the outraged guards, and they stepped back.

"Good! It's right to hit these two bastards."

"Someone should have taught them a lesson!"

In the distance, some civilians applauded in a low voice and applauded.

Nahum colluded with aristocratic officials. He was arrogant and domineering on weekdays, and he was extremely greedy for money in business. He raised the price of medicines so high that many civilians could not afford to see a doctor and could only watch their relatives die. Many people hated Nahum as hell.

Tonk was like a savior who fell from the sky, and the woman looked at him stupidly.

"Let's go." Tonk picked up the woman as if he was carrying a chicken. The woman was too thin.

"Where are you taking me?" the woman asked struggling.

Tonk thought for a while and replied, "Sell to a brothel."

"What!?"

The woman was so frightened that she looked pale.
