Chapter 138 - - Who actually has control technology?_1

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Duge assigned Vito as the deputy attacker because he was worried that there might be other candidates on Dufei’s merchant ship.

After all,

to some extent, Vito’s skills could be considered on par with Wang San’s.

Clearly, he had overthought it; the Rafe Family might have had candidates, but they were not on these two merchant ships.

The more than two hundred attribute improvements were enough to make him play the role of Superman among a group of sailors who only possessed superficial skills, skills that were even inferior to those of the weakest guards at the Feng Family’s Mansion.

Slacking off in judgment and maintenance was obviously different, spreading two rumors had probably not even left Ryan’s tavern, the waters not yet muddied, let alone catching any fish.

Simply relying on physical slacking to increase attributes was too slow.

…

Watching the gathered sailors and crew members of the Dufei family, Barry asked, “Captain, should we transfer the cargo to our ship and leave…”

“Leave? Leave for where!” Duge gave Barry a strange look, patted his shoulder, and said, “Barry, from now on, our Sea Fish Pirate Group has three pirate ships, what a perfect start! Wayne, find two new flags and replace the Rafe Family’s flags…”

“You want to keep the Rafe Family’s ships?” Barry’s eyes widened.

“Of course,” Duge nodded, “not just their ships, but also their people. Mahamadu has over two hundred pirate ships under his command, we must have more people and ships to contend with them.”

“But they’re the Rafe Family!” Barry was taken aback and then remembered Paul had lost his memory, he was just about to explain.

The captain of the Dufei merchant ship suddenly stood up, looking at Duge with utter contempt, “People from the Rafe Family will never stoop to piracy. Captain Paul, I am Ramon Dufei of the Rafe Family, you must have heard of my name. I admit I underestimated your courage, but your idea is utterly absurd, by the rules, leave the cargo and the Gold Coins to you, let us go, and I promise, the Rafe Family won’t trouble you.”

“Barry, is there such a rule?” Duge asked in a lower voice, turning to Barry.

“There is indeed such a rule,” Barry nodded, “No pirate wants to offend the Rafe Family.”

“What about the ransom?” Duge asked.

“You can take a ransom,” the contempt in Ramon Dufei’s eyes deepened, “but if you accept the ransom, your previous promise will be null and void, and your Smile Angel will be relentlessly hunted by the Rafe Family.”

Duge looked back to Barry.

Barry nodded, “That’s the rule. Keep the cargo for safety, ask for money, and you’ll be hunted…”

“Then let’s skip the ransom,” Duge said with a glance at Ramon, smiling.

“You’re not completely foolish.” Ramon snorted, gesturing dismissively, “Take your spoils and get off my ship immediately.”

“Captain Ramon, I only said I don’t want the ransom, I didn’t say you could leave!” Duge laughed, “I’m very annoyed by your attitude. No one can insult the future King of the Four Seas, just like you wouldn’t dare insult Mahamadu. Therefore, I’ve decided to give you a little punishment.”

“What are you going to do?” Ramon became instantly alert, “Kill me, and you’ll bring endless trouble upon yourself. The Rafe Family will torture you by the cruelest means, consider the consequences carefully.”

“Though I’m a pirate, I am a kind soul, eager to spread joy throughout the Mortal Realm,” Duge said with a smile, looking at Ramon. “Captain Ramon, if you and your crew agree to wear pink skirts and dance for an hour at the next three ports, I’ll let bygones be bygones and let you leave!”

“Paul, you’re insulting a baron.” Ramon frowned.

“Ramon, calm down,” Duge shook his head with a smile, “There’s a second option, you and your crew can join my Sea Fish Pirate Group, and then we’ll be one family. We could happily force others to dance, bringing us joy.”

“Are you dreaming?” Ramon’s tone grew angrier, “Fool, I won’t accept either of your methods. I warn you, it’s best you let us go, my promise still stands.”

Duge gave Vito a signal and led the angry Ramon Dufei away in front of everyone. While walking, he said, “Baron Ramon, I understand that making such a decision in front of everyone can undermine your dignity. We can talk in private. For instance, it wouldn’t be unacceptable to have only your men dance…”

Following the pair, Vito wore a flattering smile and complimented, “Baron Ramon, you are a wise man. The collective intelligence of the entire Dufei family doesn’t match a tenth of yours. Why not consider accepting the captain’s proposal? You’ve seen the captain’s bravery; the Sea Fish Pirate Group is destined to become as powerful as the King of the Four Seas. Joining Sea Fish will undoubtedly be the most correct choice in your life.”

“Fine, I can join the Sea Fish Pirate Group, but I absolutely will not dance at the docks.” Unconsciously, Ramon’s tone had softened considerably.

“Baron, your wisdom truly is unmatched in this world.” Duge smiled, “Everyone who joins our pirate group must add a Sea Fish suffix to their name. You might as well choose a sea fish you like.”

“When did I ever say I would join your pirate group?” Ramon regained his composure during the conversation with Duge.

Duge gave Vito another look, somewhat helplessly, and ordered, “First, add a Sea Fish name after his.”

Vito said, “Baron Ramon, your eyes shine like the stars, and your name is destined to be passed down through the ages. Such a magnificent name without a Sea Fish suffix would be a pity. I think ‘Shark’ suits you best. How about Ramon Dufei Shark?”

“Ramon Dufei Shark?” Ramon nodded, “Indeed, the name isn’t bad.”

Duge let go of Ramon’s hand, “Then, Lord Ramon Dufei Shark, are you willing to join my pirate group?”

“The glory of the Rafe Family does not allow me to lower my noble head, but I personally admire your bravery, so I can join your pirate group.” Ramon’s gaze towards Duge was still filled with repulsion, but he agreed to his request.

Aside.

Witnessing the enormous change in Ramon, Vito’s eyes bulged with realization. Where did the problem arise?

Fish!

Sea Fish!

Paul could control others through the names of Sea Fish…

Damn it!

No wonder his skill failed yesterday; it all started with a name change…

To think that flattery could control someone’s thoughts was one thing, but why would Chaos awaken such an outrageous skill?

What exactly had he done?

Could it be that his keyword isn’t Chaos?

But his words and actions are disordered and illogical, failing to follow common sense, and you never know what he wants to do next; everything fits the traits of “Chaos”…

Could it be that his advanced skill causes people to be mentally disordered?

In an instant.

Vito’s mind was in turmoil; he suddenly didn’t know if the decisions he had made from last night till now truly came from his heart.

Chaos is too terrifying!

“Good, Ramon, you won’t regret this decision; it marks the beginning of your lifetime of glory.” Duge patted Ramon’s shoulder and instructed with a smile, “You’re the captain, so next, you persuade the others to join our Sea Fish Pirate Group. Remember, have each of them add a Sea Fish suffix to their names; it’s the mark of our Sea Fish Pirate Group…”
