Chapter 1868 Battle of the North Sea (4)
However, during this short voyage, they encountered many unexpected situations.
Along the way, the army fleet kept passing by various ships.
There are merchant ships loaded with cargo, moving slowly forward in the waves; there are also some pirate ships flying black flags, which wander wantonly on the sea, making people shudder.
"Look, there are so many fleets!"
Suddenly, a businessman stood at the bow, pointed his finger into the distance and shouted with a look of shock on his face.
His voice spread on the sea breeze and immediately attracted the attention of people around him.
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and saw the neatly arranged warships sailing in the distance, like giant steel beasts, majestic and solemn.
This scene left everyone dumbfounded, and for a moment, the entire sea was filled with exclamations.
"This... could this be a navy fleet? Why are there so many?"
Some nobles on the cruise ship stared with wide eyes at the dozens of warships in the distance in disbelief. The wine glasses in their hands even fell and shattered due to excessive shock, but they were completely unaware.
"No, that flag is not the Navy's peace dove!"
Another man retorted loudly, his eyes fixed on the flags flying on the warships, which were obviously not naval emblems.
"Who could that be?"
Someone asked in confusion, and this question caused a commotion in the crowd. Everyone looked at each other, unable to explain the spectacular sight before them.
On the other side, when the pirates saw the densely packed warships from afar, they were instantly scared out of their wits.
They stared at these steel behemoths with wide eyes and horror on their faces, the fear in their hearts surging like a tide.
"Oh my god! So many warships, is it the navy coming to encircle us?"
A pirate captain shouted, his voice filled with despair and fear.
The other pirates also echoed, and for a moment, the entire pirate ship was in chaos.
"Quick! Hoist the sails and get out of here!"
Someone shouted in panic.
So the pirates hurriedly pulled up the sails and rowed desperately, wishing to escape from this terrible place immediately.
"Damn it! How come so many warships suddenly appeared? I haven't heard that any big shot from the navy is coming to the North Sea!"
Some pirate captains cursed and anxiously urged their men to speed up.
A strong sense of foreboding surged in their hearts. The appearance of so many warships at the same time was definitely not a good thing.
At the same time, Caesar's fleet was sailing against the wind and heading straight for the Tulip Kingdom.
This fleet was huge and majestic. Wherever it passed, both merchant ships and other ships gave way.
Even some noble cruise ships, faced with so many ferocious warships, could not help but feel fear and stayed away from them.
The Rockefeller Kingdom's fleet immediately caused an uproar when it sailed from the uninhabited sea into this bustling sea area.
The people in this sea area and the residents of the Tulip Kingdom all cast curious eyes on the fleet.
The reason is simple: the flag hoisted on this fleet is not the naval flag that everyone is familiar with, but a flag that is very unfamiliar to the North Sea.
Therefore, when this huge and unfamiliar fleet suddenly appeared in people's sight, all forces could not remain calm.
They were filled with curiosity and anxiety, and began to ask around about the origin and purpose of this fleet.
However, due to poor information flow, some forces only heard about the Rockefeller Kingdom and had not truly witnessed the country's strength and style.
Not to mention having a deep understanding of it.
Therefore, when the flag of the Rockefeller Kingdom fluttered on the sea, the Tulip Kingdom and its surrounding forces knew nothing about it and had no idea about the country represented by this flag.
At the same time, on the other side of the North Sea, the naval fleet led by Esdeath was like a fierce whirlwind, and quickly launched a bloody cleanup operation.
Their fleet was like a hungry beast. Wherever it went, merchant ships were forced to stay on the rough sea and unable to escape.
Those merchant ships that dared to disobey orders and tried to escape were ruthlessly blown to pieces by Esdeath's fleet, and no ship was spared.
Those merchant ships that chose to surrender were all closely guarded by the Rockefeller Kingdom's navy.
The crew members on these merchant ships became prisoners and were deprived of their freedom.
At the same time, the Rockefeller Kingdom's navy also took control of these merchant ships and brought them under its own control.
The various materials loaded inside these merchant ships will become important supplies for the Rockefeller Kingdom in the next battle.
Whether it is food, weapons or other necessities, it will provide strong support for the Rockefeller Kingdom's army.
In this brutal sweep, the Rockefeller Kingdom's fleet was like a ferocious beast, rampaging across the turbulent ocean.
However, even such a powerful force could not completely avoid encounters with those slave ships.
When these slave ships were discovered, the news was quickly passed to Esdeath.
After hearing this, she gave the order without hesitation: those slave owners and slave traders should be sentenced to death!
Human trafficking, this evil act, has almost disappeared in the New World.
This is all thanks to the Rockefeller Kingdom's crackdown on slave traders.
If they are caught, they will die.
Therefore, in this world, except for those desperate criminals, almost no one dares to take the risk of engaging in such activities.
Esdeath often travels on the sea, her figure like a ghost, shuttling between various sea areas.
All the slave traders who were unfortunate enough to encounter her died.
According to incomplete statistics, the number of slave traders who died at the hands of Esdeath is simply staggering.
It is no exaggeration to say that the number is at least eight hundred, if not one thousand.
The death of these slave traders was undoubtedly a relief and salvation for the poor people who were forced into slavery.
Esdeath's mother was once a slave, and her experience made Esdeath hate slavery.
This painful experience planted a seed in Esdeath's heart, prompting her to make up her mind to save more suffering people.
The entire Rockefeller family was extremely resolute and uncompromising in their attitude towards slave traders.
They viewed slave traders as a cancer on society and would not hesitate to take action if they discovered someone secretly selling slaves.
