《My Pirate System》Chapter 4: The Explosion
Advertisement
The people always treated pirates mercilessly. They always believed that pirates were the bad ones and people from the Anti-Pirate Federation were the good ones who protected everyone.
But regardless of such thoughts, there was an equal number of people who supported both the Pirates and the Officials.
But the common villages of civilians who favored the cops were more in number. They believed everything that the Anti-Pirate Federation decided and everything was based on what information they would give.
Such news was spread and it was revealed that Shawn, one of the God's Lackeys who conquered the West, was deemed a criminal.
Shiro, who was born just a few days ago, was in his uncle Eric's hands as he was running away with Ria and Kylle.
The rumor was spread that his father was one of the Lackeys of Gods and one of the conquerors of the West Sea Dungeons and that was why everyone was behind their lives.
It had barely been 3 days since Shiro was born and Ria was still barely able to move. She had lost a large amount of energy.
"B-brother...", she could hardly speak.
"Ria... don't worry, we are almost there...", he said.
Eric had asked one of his most trusted friends to prepare a ship in which they would sail away to a safer place.
Eric owned a lot of places so any of those would be safer than the place they were in.
"I... I can't anymore...", she was barely able to walk due to which Eric handed Shiro to the nanny Kylle and lifted Ria and carried her in his arms.
"Just a bit more!!!", he kept on saying this when finally he could see the ship that was ahead of him.
He could see his friend too who was on the board. He looked towards him and ran with all his might and climbed the small ship.

Kylle too somehow managed to climb the ship but as soon as she did some officials appeared out of nowhere.
They seemed to be some higher-ups who were quite strong and wanted to kill everyone from the pirate family in order to eradicate the roots.
A boulder was thrown towards the ship which hit it and shook it hard.
"Damn... those pricks!!!", Eric seemed angry.
He immediately placed Ria down and was about to rush in order to prevent them from attacking but Ria grabbed his right hand and stopped him.
"Don't... don't go...", her eyes were teary, and the way she told melted his heart due to which he could barely leave her.
"Okay...", he just said that and rushed towards the mast in order to raise the sail and leave when suddenly he could see many boulders being lifted and being thrown towards them.
"Damn!!!"
The boulders were so big that they could easily crush the ship in an instant and were indeed dangerous.
"I won't let anyone die...", he looked towards Ria and then towards Kylle who was standing beside him.
"Kylle... all on you...", he said.
He knew that Kylle could manage the sailing of the ship since she had prior experience. She too was part of Shawn's crew when she was a bit young and it was her, who taught him many things.
"Alright... but what about you...?", she asked.
"Someone has to stay behind in order to prevent them from following you...", he said.
"No wait... you...", even before she could say something, he removed the locket which he had on around his neck and put it on Shiro.
Then he looked at Kylle and said, "Don't worry... Unless I kill the Gods, I won't die."

Immediately after saying this he jumped off of the ship and crushed the boulder immediately while using some sort of powers. It seemed as if he could control the wind.
He was completely engulfed by it and was able to stop them from firing the boulders.
He turned back for a moment and shouted, "GOOO!!!"
Kylle immediately set the ship to sail which moved at quite a fast pace and had almost covered a lot of distance when it was barely seen.
"Hyaaaa!!!", he was forming huge tornadoes from his hands and was attacking the official who had the power to control the element earth.
The boulders were of no use due to which he raised a huge wall of rocks with pointy ends and then shot them like an arrow.
The arrows pierced through the tornado and hit Eric.
*cough*
'Damn, if only I wasn't subjected to that condition…', Eric grit his teeth.
He coughed blood and fell down immediately. The tornado too subsided.
He was still alive and was trying his best to send them away by using his powers which was causing the wind to blow their way when the man formed a huge hammer of rocks and knocked Eric who was now barely holding onto his consciousness.
"Pesky bastard!", the big fat man spit on his face.
He then looked towards the sea where he wasn't able to find them. The only thing that was visible was the topmost part of the ship.
"Damn, the rats escaped...", he said.
Eric grinned as he succeeded in protecting them when suddenly a man appeared in front of the official.
"Sir Giras, don't worry... I can still kill them.", he said.
"Huh? Aren't you...", the official was surprised to see the man.
Even Eric was completely shocked to see his own friend who helped them a while ago, was standing in front of the official.
"Vino...? What are you...", Eric could barely speak and was coughing a huge amount of blood.
"Shut up!", the man swung the huge hammer again and knocked Eric due to which he fainted.
"Now you say, how would you kill them!?", the official asked.
"I have put a bomb in the ship, the fire was already set and it could blast any-"
Just as he was saying this, a huge explosion occurred.
*BOOM*
The explosion was clearly visible from there. The smoke from the explosion rose to the sky which was also seen by all of them.
"Haha, that's wonderful!!!", Giras said this while laughing a lot.
"You will get a wonderful position in the federation! Good job!", he laughed even more and then stamped Eric's face with his boots.

One chapter every few days. Two per week minimum. If I feel like it, more than that.Your choices WILL influence the story. It determines whether you get a game over (may discover new information), go around in circles never advancing the story, or advancing the story. Consequences of certain actions will shift Durrendal toward evil or good. The default personality of Durrendal may be ""pervy"" but depending on the actions that he takes it can be reversed. Think of the character as a game character. You are playing a game. It does not require that you make an account to vote. So screw around or advance the story? It's up to you.
