"Well, it seems that you have prepared a lot..."
Hector scratched his head awkwardly, but couldn't help feeling distressed.
Seeing Lin Qi's innocent and foolish look, he thought Lin Qi was easy to deceive. Who knew she was so difficult?
"Alas, there is no other way. Let me, your uncle, have a good fight with you—"
After observing for a long time and not seeing any obvious flaws, Hector had no choice but to attack head-on.
So the two sides began to fight, and their figures kept crossing each other on the deck.
For a moment, it seemed a little hard to part.
"Wow! So the new guy is so fierce?!"
The pirates who were paying attention to the battlefield were looking at the thrilling actions of both sides with surprise on their faces.
In the eyes of these pirate seniors, Lin Qi has always given people the feeling of a little brother next door, looking shy and well-behaved.
How could they know that this extremely well-behaved little brother could be so ferocious in battle?
The kind of fighting style where he stares at the opponent like a wild beast, with fierce eyes and no words...
To be honest, it's really a bit chilling.

Chapter 48 The Storm.
"Well, the battle seems a bit intense..."
Blackbeard craned his neck to look at the battle on the other ship, and kept stroking the part of his chin that had been burned.
He also commented from time to time.
"Captain, if you stand in front of me again, I can't guarantee who the next bullet will hit."
Anne said this with a smile, but anyone who looked carefully could see the bulging veins on her forehead.
It seems that Anne's tolerance for Blackbeard is not unlimited.
"Ahahaha, Annie, don't be so fierce, just get out of the way..."
Seeing Blackbeard acting like a woman with his fingers raised, Anne couldn't help herself.
"Oh!"
"Woo! Don't be so angry! I'll get out of the way, I'll get out of the way!"
Blackbeard narrowly dodged the bullet that Anne shot at his chest, and ran away with a cold sweat and a wry smile on his face.
But it seemed that he was unable to turn the voice back in time, and Blackbeard's voice was still very awkward when he said this.
So his response was still Annie's merciless bullets.
"Oh!"
Blackbeard dodged again in a panic and quickly found a suitable place to hide.
Seeing that Blackbeard had calmed down, Annie continued to attack the Golden Hart.
Shot several times in succession.
However, he found that Drake had seen through his attacks and none of them hit him.
"Should I say that he is worthy of being called Francis? In terms of shooting skills, he seems to be about the same as me..."
"——I think we should get closer."
Anne sighed helplessly.
When it comes to guns, everyone may think that they are more effective when attacking from a long distance, but the fact is that guns need to be closer to be fast and accurate.
This is especially true for the musket in Annie's hand. At such a long distance, it is difficult to pose a threat to Drake unless a treasure is used.
"So you know what to do, Captain~"
Anne turned to look at Blackbeard and smiled.
"Hey! I'll get the boat over there as soon as possible!"
The black-bearded guy stood at attention again.
But then Blackbeard reacted.
No, am I not the captain of this ship?
Why should I be given orders?
Blackbeard puffed out his chest and was about to scold Anne.
What have I done to make you disrespect me so...
"Ok?"
Then Blackbeard saw the cold look in Anne's eyes.
Blackbeard shrank his head.
Ugh, Anne seems quite gentle, but why does she feel more unapproachable than Mary?
Forget it, let’s find someone who is easy to bully and give orders.
Blackbeard set his sights on Bloodaxe King Eric who was standing stupidly beside him.
"Eric! What are you still doing there? Hurry up and board the enemy ship and get the Holy Grail back for me!"
Blackbeard had a fierce face and kicked Eric after saying that.
Eric, whose frenzy level was also quite high, blinked in confusion.
It took him two seconds to react.
"The Holy Grail...Take it back!"
Eric raised the axe covered with ominous blood-red patterns, jumped into the water with a splash, and swam towards the Golden Deer.
"You idiot! Can't you just jump over this distance? You—"
Looking at Eric's stupid look, Blackbeard was unusually angry and almost called Eric back to dance again.
As the Queen Anne's Revenge approached the Golden Hart at full speed, Eric was still swimming at full speed in the sea.
the other side.
Hector, who was fighting with Lin Qi, had already felt how difficult this seemingly ordinary master was.
It was obvious that Lin Qi's pace and fighting skills were disgraceful for a great hero like him who was active in the Age of Gods.
But guess what?
He fought for such a long time but still couldn't knock Lin Qi down!
If Lin Qi knew what Hector was thinking, he would definitely say that it was all thanks to Romulus’ teaching.
After all, at the second singularity, Lin Qi was beaten badly by Romulus. Even if two of them attacked him together, he was still beaten like a ball and ran around without any ability to fight back.
This was even the result of Romulus's release of the water.
Then Lin Qi understood.
Since we don't know how to attack, why don't we just focus on defense?
Therefore, no matter what flaws Hector revealed, even if Hector fell in front of him, Lin Qi would not take the initiative to attack.
Instead, he would stare at Hector more vigilantly.
This made Hector, who was not afraid to expose his flaws for the sake of his reputation, very depressed.
"Brother, I'm already like this, don't you want to give me a little bit of a trap?"
Hector, who got up from the ground, was impressed by Lin Qi. This guy was not arrogant at all.
Lin Qi looked at Hector as if he was an idiot.
"Do I look stupid?"
Lin Qi asked back.
"Ugh……"
Hector had no choice but to fight with Lin Qi again.
After fighting with Lin Qi for so long, Hector has also figured out Lin Qi's abilities.
The first is the most difficult acceleration ability.
Hector didn't know the limit of Lin Qi's acceleration ability. Sometimes it was fast, sometimes it was slow, but he could always let Lin Qi block him in time.
At the fastest time, even Hector had trouble reacting and would break out in a cold sweat from time to time.
The second is the ability to negate all attacks.
Although Lin Qi used it for a very short time each time, he was able to help his men escape from his own gun more than a few times.
It's also a tricky ability.
The other thing is probably Lin Qi’s reaction speed and observation ability.
Especially the reaction speed, which is what impressed Hector the most.
Lin Qi’s fighting skills were indeed very poor, but his reaction speed made up for it.
No matter how Hector attacked, even if the attack was halfway launched, it would be blocked by him using his acceleration and excellent reaction ability and observation.
And this was all based on the premise that Lin Qi had no idea how Hector would attack.
Lin Qi's reaction speed reminded Hector of his old rival Achilles - no, it was even faster than Achilles!
After all, that guy's martial arts have been honed through thousands of trials and tribulations and cannot be compared with Lin Qi's.
Therefore, Hector could conclude that if Lin Qi had enough time to hone his martial arts and relied on his reaction ability, he would definitely be a very terrifying opponent.
It’s hard to say whether I will still be so relaxed at that time.
As for the end...
Hector's gaze shifted to the flag in Lin Qi's hand.
This is a Noble Phantasm, and it is a rare Noble Phantasm that can be activated without chanting the True Name at all.
Hector saw more than once that Lin Qi's flag just flashed slightly, and a ray of light enveloped an ordinary pirate on the same ship, helping him to block Mary's attack.
He even had the energy to put up a defense against the others on the ship!
As a dignified warrior, he should be angry when encountering a situation like Lin Qi.
Angry that Lin Qi didn't focus all his energy on fighting with him.
But Hector not only didn't do that, but he felt a little scared.
"Hey, bro, are you sure you want to keep doing this? You won't be able to hold out for long."
Seeing that Eric had already boarded the ship and started killing everyone with an axe in hand, Hector couldn't help but persuade him.
Lin Qi didn't say anything, and the flag in his hand glowed again.
Provided defense for a pirate who was about to be hit by Eric.
"This shirtless guy has great destructive power. Don't try to fight him! Watch his attacks and hold him back!"
Drake also noticed this scene and hurriedly gave orders loudly.
Lin Qi looked at Hector coldly, his eyes were bloodshot and he was breathing heavily.
As long as I can move, I will not allow you to harm anyone on this ship -
That's right! This is it!
It was this desperate spirit that made Hector most uneasy!
There was also a look that was like that of a beast that had been hungry for several days, and was treating this "hunting" as a life-saving straw to choose a prey. Hector even suspected that if there was a chance, Lin Qi would have pounced on him and torn off a piece of meat from his neck.
Hector could see that Lin Qi's special ability consumed a lot of his energy.
