"What is this idiot doing?" Ed stood on the deck, watching the swaggering Sea Fish Pirate Group, the veins on his forehead uncontrollably pulsing. Every move by Paul was beyond his expectations.

A qualified commander most despises unexpected situations.

He was not ready, and he did not know if Mahamadu's reinforcements had arrived.

At this time, Paul was provoking Rear Admiral Antonio, which could easily lead to unpredictable consequences.

It is very likely to lead to the annihilation of his entire army.

"Obviously, he knows about the bounty you placed on him. He wants to use Antonio to retaliate against us, or as he said, to retaliate against Mahamadu for his girlfriend Marsha. Otherwise, why wouldn't he choose to provoke on the side of Trist?" First Mate Brown explained while watching the Sea Fish Pirate Group's performance.

Suddenly.

The main sail of the Smiling Angel dropped for some unknown reason, and a group of people hurriedly raised the sail. A smile unconsciously crossed Brown's lips, and he shook his head. "What a bunch of clowns. They actually didn't check the control lines before the battle... "

"If he's provoking, why not open fire?" Ed angrily said, "Does he really think Lady Luck is on his side?"

"Obviously, she's not," the first mate chuckled, "The main sail of the Smiling Angel has dropped three times, the main sail of Happy Fish No. 1 has dropped twice, and the sail of Clown Fish No. 1 has dropped once. At least eight sailors have fallen into the sea. If this is also considered Lady Luck's protection, then Lady Luck must be blind!"

"Fire at them and sink them," Ed said with a dark face, "Having such clowns among the pirates is a disgrace to everyone..."

"Ed, it's time to open fire, but it's very likely to be seen as a provocation by Antonio," the first mate said quietly.

"So, are we just going to watch him make a fool of himself here?" Ed roared.

"Obviously, that's the most correct thing to do," the first mate shrugged.

...

"General, should we open fire and sink that group of clowns?" Beside Antonio, the deputy was indignant, "He actually insulted your buttocks with such vulgar language, and even forced the garrison troops at the port to dance on the ship. This is clearly the ultimate insult to us..."

"Have I lost a piece of flesh?" Antonio smiled, feeling clearly that many eyes were stealing glances at his buttocks, but he didn't care at all, "Is that guy Paul Walls, who is wanted by Du Fei and Admiral Mikaro?"

"Yes," the deputy said.

"I remember his bounty was not 80,000 gold coins? Why has it now become 100,000?" Antonio asked.

"General, as far as I know, no one has raised his bounty," the deputy said, "It's probably Ed who let him provoke us! General, are we really not going to open fire on them? His sail has already dropped three times. Once we open fire, he definitely won't be able to escape..."

"Wait a moment," Antonio raised his telescope and looked for Du Ge's figure on Paul's ships.

At this moment.

A large number of pirate ships suddenly appeared on the sea, and the flags on each ship had changed to strange colors. The only common point was that the flags no longer depicted skulls, but had changed to sea fish.

Sharks, manta rays, octopuses, whales, and so on.

Even the names of those ships had changed.

Shark No. 1, Whale No. 1...

Antonio subconsciously rubbed his eyes.

What's going on?

Are these people all from the Sea Fish Pirate Group?

Suddenly, the words "Fish Era" once again entered Antonio's sight.

He fell silent for a moment and ordered, "Cecil, relay my command. All fleets move forward half a nautical mile, concentrate firepower, and sink the Sea Fish Pirate Group. He is acting on his own and not at Ed's behest..."

...

Antonio's navy suddenly adjusted the sails and moved forward.

Ed's face also changed. "Damn it, Paul. Brown, order everyone to prepare for battle."

...

"Paul, are you sure about this?" Watching the suddenly moving naval warships and the dark barrels turning towards them, Marsha's face turned pale. She tightly grabbed Du Ge's arm. "Why do I feel that today, Lady Luck is no longer on our side? The main sail of the Smiling Angel has dropped three times already..."

It would be abnormal if it didn't drop.

Du Ge muttered in his heart and comforted her, "Don't panic, sing as you sing, dance as you dance. Then you will find that everything just now was just a little joke played by Lady Luck on us."

Fountain of Joy: When you spread joy, the people around you will definitely fall into a state of bad luck;

Fishing in Troubled Waters: The troubled waters you stir up will always benefit you the most.

If it were just the Fountain of Joy, Du Ge would definitely not take such a big risk, because that would only ensure that he himself would not have bad luck.

But with the latter, it's different. The biggest beneficiary is not just a joke.

Now there are three forces on the sea, one is Antonio's navy, one is Admiral Ed's island defense force, and the loose pirate group that came to support...

He is the weakest among these three forces.

But being the biggest beneficiary means he will be the one laughing in the end...

...

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The navy advanced half a nautical mile and launched the bombardment at the first opportunity.

Ed, on the other hand, with his fifteen ships, cursed Paul while retreating. He would not be foolish enough to confront over a hundred naval warships head-on.

...

Countless shells fell like raindrops, heavily hitting the ships around Du Ge, some landing on the deck, and some shells hitting the ship's masts.

The masts broke, and the sails fell.Du Ge's fleet of five pirate ships found four of them losing power on the spot, sitting motionless atop the sea.

The deck of the Clownfish One was smashed open by a cannonball, igniting a raging fire that gradually sank it beneath the waves.

The dancing sailors panicked, dodging back and forth.

But on the open sea, there was nowhere to hide.

With no other choice, they manned their cannons to return fire, but their firepower was too weak. Against the mighty Royal Navy, they couldn't stir up any trouble.

Their cannonballs couldn't even reach the opposing naval warships.

At this moment.

Du Ge's Sea Fish Pirate Group had become glaringly obvious sitting ducks.

Frantic and helpless.

"Indeed, a bunch of clowns."

Seeing this scene, the navy's joy grew even more.

Behind Ed's fleet, those who had changed their flags and names, the riffraff, were all stunned by the spectacle before them.

The favor of Lady Luck?

Just one round of cannon fire, and they became live targets...

Or was it that their many name changes had indeed shared the Sea Fish Pirate Group's luck?

Or perhaps.

The Age of Fish was simply a deception.

...

"Is this your so-called Lady Luck?" Martha, driven to madness, watched as Clownfish One was sunk by cannonballs, her face the picture of despair, "I must have been hit on the head to believe in your Lady Luck. To hell with the Age of Fish! Had I known, I would have stayed on Herd Island and continued as a witch, at least I would still be alive..."

"Martha, let me emphasize again, you didn't follow me willingly, you were kidnapped by me," Du Ge said with a smile, "And have you not noticed? With so many cannonballs fired, has one hit the ship beneath our feet?"

"..." Martha froze, instinctively looking around.

Barry and Wayne, equally panicked, were also stunned.

The original Angel Smile was too small and uncomfortable to ride, and its crew had long since moved to Clownfish Two.

And it was only after Du Ge's reminder that they realized, amidst the navy's barrage, the other four ships were either damaged or sunk, yet their own Clownfish Two beneath their feet was completely unscathed.

Lady Luck was indeed protecting them.

...

"Heh, the protection of Lady Luck?" Antonio watched Ed retreat and sneered with a laugh, issuing a new order, "Cecil, leave ten ships to clean up Clown Paul, the rest of the fleet move forward to chase, let's take Herd Island in one fell swoop. It seems Lady Luck favors our Royal Navy more, that foolish Clown Paul is our lucky star, Mahamadu was indeed unprepared..."

Before he could finish.

The roar of cannon fire suddenly erupted from behind the navy.

At the same time.

A long, melodious horn sounded throughout the sea.

Antonio's expression changed, and he swiftly turned, lifting the telescope hanging from his chest to look behind.

First, a black pirate flag appeared, followed by a large ship painted entirely black, its bow adorned with a fearsome beast's head, breaking into his view.

Antonio frowned slightly: "Roland Swan, damn, what's he doing here?"
