Chapter 426 Pearl Island

"Hurry up, wipe the deck clean!"

"All those damaged areas must be repaired to wake up your spirits, boys!"

A senior crew member waved his arms and shouted, directing the sailor to repair the damage caused by the competition between Allen and Rejace. Some sailors complained: "It was clearly those two people who made it, why do we need to repair it?"

"Bastard, Lord Allen is our distinguished guest. Besides, didn't you watch the fun before? Then it's normal to pay a little viewing fee. If you talk a little, I'll deduct your salary!"

"I was wrong!" The sailor burst into tears.

In Roger's room, a chart was spread out on the table, with Allen standing next to him. Roger clicked at a location on the chart: "It's here, we'll probably arrive at Pearl Island in the evening."

"Oh, are you supplying?".

Roger nodded: "This natural island is rich in pearls and is located in the middle of Violet Harbor and Ark Harbor. Therefore, it is usually used by merchant ships passing by and as a supply station. Moreover, the women on this island are very enthusiastic."

As he said that, he glanced at Allen intentionally or unintentionally, and the latter smiled a little embarrassedly. Roger coughed dryly and said, "When you arrive on the island, you will take the adults to see the unique style of this island. We will stay here for a day, take a short rest, and then continue on the road. Then at most one week, we can reach Ark Harbor."

"Husband Roger." Jellaf suddenly pushed the door and said in a deep voice: "Maybe you should come to the deck."

"What's wrong?"

"We found a boat following."

The three of them came to the deck together, and a sailor slid down from the lookout. He had a monocular lens on his waist and pointed to the back of the boat and said, "Husband, a boat is following us. It is very fast and will catch up with us in a few minutes. I looked at the flag emblem, it was from the Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce."

"Blood Shark's ships have been modified and are usually faster than ordinary merchant ships. They may also go to Pearl Island, but just in case, let everyone enter the battle position and prepare shells in case of an accident." Roger said hurriedly.

Allen raised his eyebrows: "We can help."

"This naval battle is different from land battles, so Lord Allen can watch the battle. If a fight really happens, then when it comes to the boarding process, please take action." Roger said with a smile.

Allen had never experienced a naval battle and felt it was quite fresh. He heard this and did not persist and nodded. He called Belmode over and asked him to inform the others and the soldiers to prepare for the move.

After a moment, the Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce ships came after him. Their sailboats had a long hull and were not as tall as Paradise, giving people a light and fast feeling. You can see wood pulp stretching out from the bottom of the hull, and it was rowing neatly. Alan then felt relieved. It turned out that their ships not only used wind power, but also used manpower to accelerate. No wonder they were much faster than Paradise.

On the hull deck of the Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce, Allen saw the old man he had seen at the dock that day. He also looked over and smiled gloomyly at Allen. Suddenly someone on the opposite hull exclaimed, and a heavy crossbow string used for whaling was thrust on the bow of the ship, and a dark whaling fork shot towards the Paradise.

Roger's face changed.

The whaling fork is not light, and you can tell how powerful it is just listening to its whistling through the air. Not to mention the hull of a wooden structure like a sailboat, even the iron plate can shoot a hole. Just as Gerald was about to cut it off, Allen had already used a reference knife to draw a flashing light. Although the power of this fire breath flash was no greater than that used by Qianjun, it flashed twice, crossed the whaling fork and cut it open.

The whale fork was suddenly cut open during high speed movement. A hot red light was flowing through the cuts on both sides, but the fork exploded in the air and flew over the left and right sides of the Paradise. One of the fragments shot the sails through, then fell into the sea water behind, exploding a small ball of waves.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

The old man on the boat there saw Alan cut open the whale fork lightly, his smile froze on his face, and then he sang: "I'm very sorry, our tools are probably broken, didn't scare you, right?"

"We are not that timid, but I would be happier if your tools were broken more." The old man's figure was clearly reflected in Alan's bright red pupils: "Because in that case, it would be natural to break your ship!"

After saying that, Allen left the deck.

The old man from the Blood Shark looked silent until Roger coughed dryly and said, "Husband Sar, please be careful next time."

The old man snorted, suddenly raised his foot and kicked a sailor next to him, roaring: "Look at what you all did!"

Then he got into the cabin.

The unlucky sailor who acted as a step could only cry and check the so-called broken whale crossbow. After the small episode, the Blood Shark's ship quickly crossed the Paradise and gradually disappeared from Roger's sight.

"Put the canvas and make me diligent. You can rest when you go to Pearl Island in the evening." Roger said.

After both ships left this sea area, the waves quietly sent them, but a small head emerged from the sea. A pair of blue eyes as if the sea water looked in the direction where the two ships left. After staring at this moment, they sank into the sea again. At this time, a dorsal fin like a shark poked out in the sea water, and then drilled into the water, completely disappeared.

The sea area has returned to peace.

Pearl Island is located in the sea of ​​Santa Terina, in the central location between Violet Harbor and Ark Harbor. This special geographical location makes this island favored by merchant ships. The island has become a must-pass supply for caravans, which has also brought business opportunities to the island itself. Gradually, people on land moved to the island to settle down and started business in Pearl and other industries, making this originally very quiet island gradually become lively.

In the evening, Paradise entered the port of Pearl Island. After nearly a week of sailing at sea, Allen and others finally had the opportunity to contact the land again. The happiest one is Willick. As it turns out, no matter how powerful a person is, he has unknown weaknesses. For example, Willick, who would have thought that as brave as he would have such weaknesses as seasick. Paradise sailed at sea for a week, and Willick was stunned for seven days.

It was rare to get off the boat today, and after being down to earth, Willick finally got energetic again.

Roger and Alan got off the boat together. After stepping on the ground, the slave merchant glanced at the port and said softly.

"What's wrong, Roger's husband?"

"It's nothing, I feel a little strange if I can't see the blood shark. Don't these guys plan to replenish supplies in Pearl Harbor?" Roger shook his head and said.

Allen glanced at the ships anchored at the port and did not see the boats of the Blood Shark Chamber of Commerce. Logically speaking, they should have arrived at Pearl Island in advance when walking in front of Paradise. Roger coughed lightly and said, "Ignore them, it would be better if those annoying guys didn't settle in Pearl Island."

"Sir Allen, Pearl Island has another nickname, and people also call it Hot Spring Island. Because there are many hot springs here, I will take you to see it after dinner. Then call a few enthusiastic and beautiful island women. They are the daughters of the sea, both enthusiastic and open. I believe they will leave you with a wonderful memory." Roger laughed.

Allen smiled dryly and said, "I agree with the hot spring bath. As for women, Roger's husband should enjoy it yourself."

"Why? Oh, I remembered it. I heard that there were two young and beautiful girls around Lord Alan. If it was because of this, I would understand." Roger gave a "I understand" expression.

Allen was unwilling to explain more, so the group left the dock with a joke. The area of ​​Pearl Island is not large, with a permanent population of only about one or two hundred. There is no city on the island, only one fishing village. After the lively Pearl Island became popular, the fishing village also went through many expansions. Now there are several hotels, two bars, and several bathhouses for hot springs in the village.

During the season of pearl harvest, a large number of merchants who bought pearls will come to the island. That was the most lively time of Pearl Island. Now it seems quieter, but there are two or three merchant ships to replenish Pearl Island, so the village is also very lively. Roger was familiar with it and led Allen and others to a hotel in the village with his own hot spring bathhouse. As for sailors and Allen's soldiers, they naturally stayed on the boat to spend the night. After all, there were not so many hotels available for them to use.

After having dinner with seafood, Roger took Allen to the hot springs. Probably Roger was already a regular guest at this hotel, so the hotel owner specially opened an open-air bath room for them. Soaked in the spring water with just the right water temperature, Allen felt quite comfortable and couldn't help asking: "How can there be hot springs on this island?"

"Because there is a sleeping volcano under the Pearl Island. In fact, there are three volcanoes like this on the Sea of ​​Santa Terina. They are collectively called the Three Pillars of the Vulcan, and an interesting legend is circulating in the empire. It is said that when the Three Pillars of the Vulcano broke out at the same time, Santa Terina will become the real sea of ​​fire. The wrath of the Vulcano will turn into rolling forward magma, and they will cross the sea and pour into the empire. At that time, it will be the end of the empire."

Roger shrugged: "However, these three living mountains are all in the sleeping period. Some scholars predict that at least two hundred years, there will be no traces of the active volcano, let alone the three erupted at the same time. So, this legend is probably made up by those boring people."

"I hope this will not happen," Allen said.

"Yes, after all, if such a disaster really happens, the first thing that will be a port city like our Violet Port."

At this time, a woman's chuckle sounded outside the bath room. Then the door of the bath room was opened, and a few young women wearing bathrobes with slightly dark skin but sexy figure walked in. The first person winked at Roger and said, "So you are here, Roger's husband."
