Chapter 374: Overconfidence

All night, Maple and Will were rowing.

Xu Feng rowed the first half of the night, and Will rowed the second half of the night.

They all knew very well that it was not safe to escape from the Flying Dutchman, because the Flying Dutchman was extremely fast, and almost the entire ocean belonged to the Flying Dutchman.

Moreover, David Jones also has the ability to perceive ships in the surrounding seas.

Therefore, they had to stay as far away as possible from the flying Dutchman and find a piece of land as soon as possible.

The two rowed in relay until the sun rose, when Will saw a medium-sized merchant ship heading towards them.

Will immediately woke up the sleeping Kaede, and then waved desperately at the merchant ship.

After all, no matter what, the sailing speed of merchant ships is much faster than that of small ships, as long as they can dock in time, they are considered safe.

The merchant ship threw a cable at Will, and Will and Xu Feng climbed onto the merchant ship.

"Is that you?" When the captain of the merchant ship saw Xu Feng, he was immediately in awe.

It was this ship that left Port Royal with Maple and Elizabeth and arrived in Port Totuga, where it made a fortune.

Now, the captain has purchased the cargo for the second time and is ready to go to the port of Totuga again.

Xu Feng also recognized the captain, and sighed helplessly, "It's you, this is really fate." ”

The captain didn't understand the meaning of Xu Feng's words, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, we are really fateful, last time I followed your advice and made a fortune in the port of Totuga, and the debt has been completely paid off, this time I can meet you, which indicates that we can make another windfall!" ”

The crew below also cheered excitedly.

Will also smiled and said, "Since we are acquaintances, it would be better, it just so happens that we are also going to the port of Totuga." ”

Xu Feng had told him before that Elizabeth was in the port of Totuga, so he could go to Elizabeth by the way.

Xu Feng shook his head with a cold face, "Don't go to Totuga Port." ”

"Not going?" Will's eyes widened in surprise.

The captain of the merchant ship also wondered, "Why?" ”

Xu Feng said: "It's very simple, someone is chasing us, and if we want to survive, we must dock as soon as possible." ”

"Wait, you're talking about pursuit, are you pirates?" The captain of the merchant ship immediately said: "It doesn't matter, as long as we enter the range of the port of Totuga, the pirates can no longer attack, because this is written in the pirate code, that's right, after I finished my first business with the port of Totuga, I started to study pirates, and we went to the port of Totuga, it is absolutely safe." ”

Xu Feng said coldly: "I'm afraid that if you can't reach the range of Totuga Port, you will be sunk." ”

The captain of the merchant navy grinned: "I am still very confident in the speed of my ship. ”

"People who fail are often ruined by overconfidence." Xu Feng frowned and said.

The captain hesitated.

What Xu Feng said is naturally true, but it is difficult for people who are blindly confident to listen to different opinions, and they will also pretend to listen to opinions, but they will only listen to the same opinions as themselves.

The captain turned to Will and asked, "Sir, are you together?" And what about your opinion? Do you want to dock nearby? ”

Will frowned.

To be honest, he had seen how good David Jones was, and he had spent a few days on the Flying Dutchman, but he still underestimated the pursuit and combat ability of the Flying Dutchman.

Moreover, he had this fluke in his heart, and he felt that David Jones might not have found out that they were gone so soon.

He wanted to go to the port of Totuga to find Elizabeth.

This risk...... It's worth the risk.

Will looked at Xu Feng apologetically, and then said to the captain in a deep voice, "I think we can go to the port of Totuga, but we have to be fast, very fast. ”

The captain smiled triumphantly, "Got it! Goal, Port of Totuga, full speed ahead! We're going to make a fortune this time. ”

Xu Feng sighed helplessly and didn't say anything more.

A person who is obsessed with ghosts may still be awakened, and it is impossible for a group of people who are obsessed with ghosts to be awakened.

The merchant ships then accelerated.

Less than ten minutes into the journey, and at least three hours from their destination, the port of Totuga, when the sailors standing on the lookout suddenly shouted loudly: "Captain! A big ship appeared behind us! Super super big ship! A ship like a moving fortress on the sea! ”

The crew immediately exclaimed in surprise and ran to the side of the ship to observe.

Sure enough, in the thin sea fog, a huge flagless ship was rapidly approaching them, and at this speed, it would not take ten minutes for the merchant ship to enter the opponent's range.

"It's a pirate ship!" Someone exclaimed.

The captain of the merchant ship was full of horror, "Why, how can it be so fast?" ”

He was ready to take the plunge, but he never expected the pirates to come so soon!

Will sighed and said, "...... Xu Feng was right, if we had looked for the coast first, I am afraid we would have been able to get rid of the flying Dutchman. ”

"The Flying Dutchman?"

"It can't be!"

"Isn't the Flying Dutchman legend?"

"Yes, no one has ever seen the Dutchman in flight."

"That's because," Xu Feng said coldly, "the people who have seen the Flying Dutchman are either dead, or they have become water ghosts on the Flying Dutchman." ”

The captain of the merchant ship trembled and said, "Sir! Mr. Kaede! Help us figure it out! We're willing to give up a boatload of rum and just ask the pirates not to hurt us!" ”

Xu Feng shook his head, "The Flying Dutchman has never robbed treasures. ”

"And what are they robbing?"

"They will only sink the ship and then harvest your souls and make you serve them." Xu Feng said lightly.

"No!" The captain of the merchant ship clenched his fists and said, "There should be a way, right?" That's right! The Pirate Code! Parley right! I'm the captain, and I have the right to negotiate with the pirate captain! ”

Xu Feng scoffed and didn't look carefully, of course you have the right to negotiate with the pirate captain on the other side, but, the premise, you must also be a pirate captain. ”

"What...... And this one? The captain of the merchant ship shuddered and pulled out the thick code of pirates, and trembled through it.

…… It's really improvised.

The captain was completely panicked.

Will said sadly, "...... I hurt them. ”

Xu Feng said lightly: "It was they who hurt themselves." ”

At sea, the flying Dutchman is getting closer and closer, and the small merchant ship is almost like a toy in front of the flying Dutchman.

The distance of the merchant ships was already within the range of the flying Dutchman.

"Captain, now it's time to fire!"

On the flying Dutchman, the boatswain said in a rough voice.

David Jones was on the side of the ship, and said coldly: "That stinky boy is not worth using my cannon to summon the Poseidon Beast, it has not eaten for a long time." ”

“…… Be! The boatswain grinned.
