Chapter 447: Bombardment, rebound?
"Um"
Even though the caller hung up, Long still answered in a rather serious tone.
The blond boy who loved to be naughty and mischievous as a child has become more and more mature.
Long felt very relieved, but at the same time, he had a very bad feeling in his heart.
At this moment, he had already prepared for the worst...
After hanging up the phone bug, Long contacted Ambrio Ivankov immediately.
"Ivan...base..."
Long hasn't finished speaking yet.
Ivankov interrupted: "You're talking about Blackbeard and the others planning a sneak attack. I know about this and I'm on the way."
When the base area was attacked, Ivankov had already received news from Baldigo.
As soon as he got the news, he had already set off with his people.
At this moment, he was leading people to the base area quickly.
However, at the current speed, it would take two days at the earliest to get to Bardigo.
I'm afraid the battle will be over long ago when we get there.
But no matter what, I have to go this time.
"Um......"
Long responded.
Then he directly replied: "Be safe."
......
Baldigo base area, south of the sea.
Dozens of large ships appeared on the sea a few nautical miles away from the island.
"black beard"
Sabo muttered to himself as he looked at the sea through the telescope.
The black and white skull and crossbones flag is the most important symbol of the Blackbeard Pirates.
Putting down the telescope, Sabo turned around and ordered to the person next to him.
"The enemy has appeared"
"Notify, get ready for bombardment."
High up on the island, cannons had already been set up, and their muzzles were pointed at the pirate ships to the south.
All shells have been loaded.
Around the cannon, there were densely packed piles of cannonballs.
The gunner holds a torch in his hand, just waiting for the enemy to come within range.
The loader stands next to the gunner, ready to continue loading at any time.
Soon, a signal came from below, and Blackbeard's fleet was within range.
"fire"
The gunner lit the fuse.
Cannonballs swarmed out of the barrel and hit the sea like raindrops.
Rumble...
The sea in the distance suddenly aroused waves of water jets, and the waves aroused hit the invading enemies.
However, due to the distance, most of the shells fell into the sea.
The iron cannonballs hit the wooden ship, and the pirates on the ship were smashed into pieces. The hull was also full of holes left by the explosion.
Seeing this situation, Blackbeard yelled: "Fight back for me!"
Immediately, all the cannons on all Blackbeard's warships fired at the same time.
But their range is far beyond the reach of the island.
The opponent takes advantage of the height of the island and launches downwards, so the range is longer.
And Teach's cannon is at a lower level.
Therefore, their shells fell into the sea water.
Seeing this situation, Teach had no choice but to order the fleet to approach.
However, the further forward, the denser the shells in front became.
The more shells their fleet suffered.
For a time, it was difficult for the fleet to move forward.
At this moment, Muhuang, who was beside Tiqi, suddenly stood up.
I saw him slowly stretching out his hands.
When the fruit ability is activated, countless vines grow from his hands, and then quickly stretch out.
Soon, those vines were blocking the way of dozens of large ships.
The shells fell like raindrops and were directly entangled in the vines.
The cannonball was stopped, and the pirate group behind the vines was suddenly safe and sound.
"Thief hahahaha"
"Hey, Muhuang, your ability is better."
Seeing this, Blackbeard was very happy.
"Still early"
Muhuang replied expressionlessly.
This is just routine operation.
He seemed dismissive of Blackbeard's compliments.
Then, he shook his five fingers, and countless vines seemed to move, throwing the cannonball back.
The cannonballs originally fired were immediately thrown back by the vines.
A moment later, there was an explosion on Baldigo Island.
"Thief hahaha"
"Use their artillery shells against themselves, thieves hahaha"
Blackbeard laughed again.
With Muhuang, he no longer has to fear the opponent's bombardment.
It was right to bring him here this time.
The explosion on the island also surprised Sabo.
He had seen everything just now clearly through the telescope.
He didn't expect that there were such capable people in the Blackbeard Pirates.
Not only can it withstand most of their shells, but it can also bounce them back.
Sabo looked serious.
Behind him, the sound of gunfire could be heard from everywhere on the island, and scenes of people falling over their horses could be seen at any time.
Many people were carried down with serious injuries.
But at this moment, he couldn't care about any of this.
"Saab"
"I think the shelling should stop now"
Korra walked up to Sabo.
She also realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Um"
Sabo nodded slightly.
At the moment, in order to prevent the revolutionary army from causing more harm.
The shelling had to be stopped, but in that case, their ship might land on the island.
