Boom!
As the steam battleships fired one after another, Blackbeard's army suddenly suffered a brutal baptism of artillery fire.
The wooden sailboats exploded under the terrifying gunfire. Before the pirates had time to show their bravery in joining gangs, they were reduced to pieces under various artillery strikes, and their bodies sank to the bottom of the sea.
"dispersion!"
Blackbeard closed his eyes and ordered the Monster to signal: "Disperse and break out!"
Immediately, the original pirate army suddenly dispersed and broke out in different directions like a pack of wolves that had lost its leader.
Although he knew that making this choice would mean admitting failure, Blackbeard had no choice but to do so.
After all, if he continues to hold on, he may suffer the end of the entire fleet being annihilated.
Moreover, after breaking out separately, many pirate ships can fully display their strengths.
Pirates are originally a group of free and loose creatures, which are completely opposite to the well-disciplined army.
At this time, large-scale naval battles instantly turned into small chasing battlefields. From time to time, pirates would fight back fiercely, causing heavy losses to those first-, second-, and third-level sailing battleships that had not yet been retired by the navy.
Of course, in sharp contrast to this, there were thirty steam ironclads running rampant on the sea. Every pirate ship was busy avoiding them. Once targeted, they would not be able to escape the fate of ship destruction and death.
As the leader of the Blackbeard pirate group, Blackbeard was obviously targeted.
A total of seven steam ironclads surrounded him menacingly.
"accelerate!"
As a pirate governor, Blackbeard would naturally not just surrender.
He patted the deck of the Monster, and the entire ship roared. Its speed surged twice as fast. It escaped a round of bombardment and savagely crashed into the blockade of sailboats outside.
"Crunch! Crunch!"
The monster's bow opened its big mouth, like a snake swallowing a rat, biting a sailing battleship, making a heart-breaking sound, and actually dismembered and devoured it in a short period of time.
Bang bang!
During this period of time, the Monster itself was also hit by several shells.
But its hull was far stronger than ordinary wooden boards, and it had the ability to recover. It actually withstood the bombardment and slaughtered the sailboat wantonly, carving a bloody path.
"Is this the last glory of the Monster?"
Although this scene was very brave, it was definitely not a good thing in the eyes of Edward who was watching the battle.
"Blackbeard...what are you thinking about?"
At this time, the Monster was like a peerless general in the battle between the two armies. Although it was very brave to break into the infantry phalanx and made countless gains, it was also targeted and surrounded by the opponent's armored soldiers.
Although those steam ironclads seemed bulky, their speed in the water was very flexible. At this time, they completely surrounded the Monster.
"The commander of the Royal Fleet opposite is Fili, right? He wants to attract my attention with these ordinary wooden ships that should be eliminated, and then let the steam ironclads besiege me..."
Blackbeard stood on the bow of the Monster, looking at this scene, with a sneer on his face: "But I still retain one of the legendary abilities of the Monster! He really asked for trouble this time!"
After all, the Monster is the second-ranked extraordinary ship, only a thin line away from those legendary ships.
Blackbeard was also cunning. After obtaining the Monster, he used his powerful witchcraft to add an ability to the ship.
The Monster originally has the ability to devour, which can destroy enemy ships, plunder parts, and enhance itself.
His additional legendary ability is a terrifying skill that continuously accumulates the energy gained from devouring it and explodes for the last time!
"Legend - Annihilation!"
After devouring the last first-class battleship, looking at the completed steam armored encirclement, Blackbeard raised his right hand and roared loudly: "Feel the pain!"
Boom!
A layer of black light suddenly emerged from the Monster and converged on Blackbeard's hand. The color became more intense and spread suddenly.
Buzz!
Invisible ripples swept across.
In an instant, all the steel decks that were touched immediately appeared cracks and wrinkles... and eventually turned into powder and disappeared silently.
"Abandon ship!!!"
On the steam steel ship, there were immediately waves of furious commotion and roars.
Unfortunately, those sailors were still too slow.
After being caught up by the black ripples, their expressions instantly froze, as if they were lifelike statues.
After a moment, the breeze blew, and the individual figures scattered down and turned into puffs of fine sand.
After the black ripples passed, the hulls of the three steam ironclads had shown serious damage and began to sink slowly.
"Long live Blackbeard!"
"Long live the pirates!"
…
The pirates suddenly burst into cheers, as if a dying man suddenly saw hope.
There had been no damage since the beginning of the war, and three of the steam ironclad ships that looked like war gods were directly scrapped under Blackbeard's attack
This is definitely the biggest win against Insman so far.
Little did he know that Blackbeard's heart was trembling coldly at this moment.
This kind of attack from the Monster Number definitely takes a long time to accumulate. After the attack just now, don't think about using it a second time within three days.
Originally, according to his idea, if the siege was still the same wooden sailing ship as before, he could definitely kill a dozen of them. Even this new type of steam ironclad ship could completely sink the seven chasing ships, giving the British a The Siman Royal Navy learned an unforgettable lesson. After getting rid of these pursuers, they can leave the battlefield calmly.
But the facts gave him a cruel slap in the face.
The defensive power of this kind of ironclad ship completely exceeded Blackbeard's expectations. It only paid a heavy price for the sinking of three ships, so that the energy of this annihilation attack was exhausted.
As a result, not only was it impossible to achieve a complete establishment of authority, but the Monster's escape plan was also in great trouble.
"fire!"
Seeing the sinking of three companions, the commanders on the remaining steam ironclads immediately became red-eyed and ordered the main guns to counterattack.
Bang bang!
Amidst the loud noise, terrible attacks fell on the Monster's hull.
No matter how hard the material is, several big holes have been punched out, like a wounded beast trapped in many traps and then besieged by hounds.
"Speed up! Breakout!"
Blackbeard roared repeatedly.
Unfortunately, the parts and energy that the Monster had previously looted had been completely consumed in the previous annihilation attack, and even the recovery ability of the ship itself was affected.
Encouraged by this, an ironclad ship even rammed menacingly.
The Monster was originally a giant among sail battleships. Its volume and displacement were larger than those of a first-class battleship, and the same was true for a steam ironclad.
boom!
Amidst the loud noise, the two big men were severely shocked.
Immediately, a huge gap appeared in the hull of the Monster.
"Ouch!"
The Monster howled like a wounded beast, the bow of the ship suddenly rose, and its terrifying mouth expanded several times, like a giant python with its mouth open.
It clicked and swallowed the bow of the striking ironclad ship directly.
Crunch! Crunch!
A heartbreaking voice came.
After a while, the Monster retreated on its own initiative, revealing a steam-ironclad ship with half of its hull covered in scars, but there was a burst of cheers from above.
But the pirates on the Monster didn't say a word, and even sharp-eyed pirates could notice that there were suddenly many damage scars on the bow of the Monster.
Obviously, the Monster wanted to devour the ironclad ship just like it did with those sailing ships before, and replenish its nutrition by the way.
But I didn't expect that the ship was not only bigger, but also stronger than expected. I lost a few teeth because of it.
At this point, the Monster's breakout plan has been declared a complete failure.
Unless the pirate prince Edward comes to the rescue immediately, otherwise, there is no chance of survival. This is the cruelty of naval battles!
But will Edward rescue Blackbeard
Not to mention the danger of entering the naval array alone, the friendship between the Pirate Prince and Blackbeard is not that good. After all, they have fought fiercely several times before.
"Everyone is here, ready to fight!"
Blackbeard bit open a bottle of rum and took a swig.
As a pirate, he has long been aware of being buried in the sea at any time!
And as a pirate captain, he should sink with the ship! ! !
…
"A respectable opponent!"
After observing the flags and movements on the Monster, the commanders of several ironclad ships expressed admiration, but this did not prevent them from issuing attack orders.
Now that they know that the Monster is prepared to fight tooth and nail, they will not risk heavy casualties to fight for this extraordinary battleship. Letting it sink is the best option.
The main guns of the four ironclad ships were aimed at the Monster and suddenly fired.
Boom!
Four huge explosions were generated on the Monster, and countless pirates were blown away and died without a burial place.
With flesh and blood flying across the sky, the Blackbeard pirate flag slowly fell, indicating the passing of an era.
Under the navy's wretched "non-contact combat" plan, even though Blackbeard possessed witchcraft, he was unable to use it. He could only watch as his ship was torn apart and he was thrown into the sea.
Woohoo!
Amidst the huge pain, a trumpet seemed to be heard in his ears.
With his extraordinary vision, he saw the souls of the shipwrecked people constantly converging in one direction, as if there was a whirlpool there.
A huge and blurry translucent boat silhouette emerged, slowly approaching him, carrying a heart-stopping aura of death.
"It's a ghost ship!!!"
Above the sea, the pirate prince Edward looked at the sudden appearance of a layer of thick fog and the familiar feeling, and couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Ghost ship!"
The Royal Navy apparently also discovered this uninvited guest. The sailors on the ship howled in terror, as if they were seeing the end of the world.
Wow!
The thick fog broke, and a half-rotten sailing ship rode the wind and waves, and threw out a cable that seemed to have a life of its own. It gently rolled up Blackbeard and landed on the deck.
