Chapter 269 Natural Disaster
Just like that, a day passed quickly, and when it came to the morning of the third day, Vic's ship did not encounter any pirates or anything like that, not even a single ship or a single person. It seemed as if there were only these two people and a pig in the entire ocean.
Vic's boat was not sailing along the route of the Grand Route; it was crossing horizontally, merging from one route into another.
......
On the Elite Battalion's warship, Rebecca and Ian were watching the sunrise on the deck, which was also the direction where Vic left.
"Sister Rebecca, who were those people wearing masks yesterday? They were so scary!"
"You won't understand even if I tell you. You'll know when you grow up. Just stay away from them."
"I will definitely grow bigger than you!"
"You should say he's taller than me. There's no such thing as bigger."
"I just want to be bigger and prettier than you!"
"I believe you are taller than me, but I don't believe you are prettier than me. Red hair is prettier than blue hair!"
"What are you talking about? About whether hair looks good or not?" At this time, Barnett and Fredek also came to the two of them.
"Nothing, Ian just wants to grow up quickly." Rebecca said without turning her head, with her hands on her face.
"Brother Barnett, it's the third day now, right? When are we going to set out to find Vic?" Ian asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"It should be soon. The things on the island are basically finished. The people from the World Government have asked all the questions they should ask. We should almost leave here."
Barnett's mood was not very high either. He had just met the people from the World Government for the first time in the past two days. He could only say one thing to describe them: arrogant.
"Will we run into the Red Hair Pirates? With Zephyr-sensei here, I don't want to run into them! It would be nice if we run into them again in the future when we have our own warships. We can still have a fight then!"
Rebecca didn't have a bad impression of Shanks. She heard from Vic that there was also a little girl on their ship. How bad could such a guy be?
"It's hard to say. They're a big pirate group. We may not have the upper hand in a real fight. After all, Vic isn't on the ship right now!"
Barnett's analysis was very objective. The reason why Sora asked Zephyr to intercept the Red Hair Pirates was because Wick was also on the warship. Otherwise, the task of stopping the big pirates would not be taught to trainee recruits like the Elite Battalion, even if there were former admirals on the warship.
"Brother Barnett, Vic should have arrived at the island with the doctor by now, right?" Ian interrupted.
"I looked at the sea chart. At Vic's speed, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be slower than..."
"Barnett, don't say that!"
Before Barnett could finish his words, he was interrupted loudly by Rebecca. Rebecca and Wendy had already confirmed that Barnett had a bad mouth, and if nothing unexpected happened, something unexpected was bound to happen.
Barnett had a look of confusion on his face. He was a little confused about why Rebecca interrupted him. He was completely unaware of his own bad mouth. He was just analyzing normally, but he didn't expect Rebecca to react so strongly.
"Let's not talk about Vic anymore. The right thing to do is to let Teacher Zefa leave here and find Vic." Rebecca said quickly.
"Yes, the most important thing is to bring the captain and Wendy back as soon as possible. With the captain's ability, there will be no problem and no accidents will happen!" Fredek said firmly.
......
Vic didn't sleep all night, and he sat cross-legged on the floor next to Wendy's bed, meditating. Although the voyage of the boat didn't take long, with Xiaobai's joining, the time would only be shorter.
But Vic did not let go of this little bit of time. He still practiced his domineering and kendo skills. This is an attitude.
Vic opened his eyes and looked at Wendy lying on the bed. Her face was still flushed and she was still unconscious.
"boom"
Just when Vic was thinking that the rest of the voyage would be smooth sailing, a huge sound of splashing water was heard.
Vic immediately ran out of the cabin. He hadn't noticed in the bedroom just now that the sky outside had become gloomy, with a few drops of rain falling occasionally.
But the falling rain was a little scary. One drop of rain could wrap Xiaobai up. If it hit a small boat, it would sink into the sea immediately.
"Xiaobai, watch the sky, don't let the water droplets fall on the boat!"
Vic didn't dare to delay and quickly shouted to Xiaobai who was pulling the boat, saying that there was a patient on the boat.
After shouting, Vic quickly returned to the bedroom and tied Wendy to the bed. The huge water drops falling into the sea would also create huge waves. It would be difficult for the boat itself to withstand such waves, and it would inevitably roll up and down if hit by the waves.
After securing Wendy, Vic returned to the deck. Xiaobai was no longer swimming in a straight line in the sea. In order to avoid the water droplets from the sky, Xiaobai would change direction at any time. Vic came to the deck to prevent the huge water droplets that Xiaobai could not avoid.
It was still okay at the beginning, the water droplets were not very dense, but as time went on, the raindrops in the sky became more and more, faster and denser, as if light rain had turned into moderate rain, and even heavy rain.
Xiaobai was really helpless. No matter where he hid, he was bombarded by huge water droplets. The sea was already turbulent, and the boat was rushing up and down with the waves, in danger of capsizing at any time.
Vic had no time to care about anything else at this moment. He needed to use the double knives in his hands to cut off all the water drops that hit the boat. As long as the boat was hit by such huge water drops, it would immediately disintegrate. Vic could only take care of the present first.
"I have heard of such a climate in the New World, but no one told me that it also existed in the first half. Why has my luck been so bad during this period?"
Vic's sword energy flew out, cutting through several large water drops that came one after another. Vic had two swords in his hands, and he didn't dare to relax for a moment. Sword energy flew out continuously, blocking all the water drops that wanted to hit the boat.
The dense raindrops lasted for a quarter of an hour, and Vic swung his knife without stopping for a quarter of an hour.
The raindrops gradually became sparse and there was a tendency for them to stop. Even Xiaobai was hit so hard that he dared not show his head and kept diving under the sea to pull the boat.
The raindrops gradually decreased until they stopped falling, but Vic's heart did not relax, because the sky was still gloomy. Looking at the dark clouds not high above the sea, there were lightning and thunder, which looked like they were directly pressing down on his head, giving him a suffocating feeling.
"No wonder Golden Lion lost to Roger in the naval battle. Even the Power of Nature's Float-Float Fruit is hard to resist! Only an iron-clad pirate group like Roger's can resist it!"
Vic didn't even take back the knife. He had a hunch that the huge drop of water just now was just an appetizer, and the main course might be what was coming next.
"boom......"
