Su Mu’s guess was correct.
After the fiasco, the higher-ups of Fu Sang Country contacted King Zhenshan and asked him to help.
After paying a huge price, King Mountain Suppression finally nodded.
A powerful fleet followed the trail and chased after Su Mu and his Infernal Pirates.
The general of this operation was still Situ Zhong.
The warships under the Mountain Suppression King’s command were enhanced by talismans and Qi Practitioners.
Not only was his combat strength stronger, but his speed was also faster.
..
Five days later, the patrol boats of the Hell Pirates discovered these powerful enemies and reported them to Su Mu.
Su Mu had expected this.
Along the way, he used the reputation of defeating the Takeda family to subdue many pirates.
However, these newly subdued pirates had not been tempered.
Be it strength, discipline, or fighting will, they were far inferior to his old subordinates.
If it was before, Su Mu would at most choose 200 elites and kill the rest.
The reason why he accepted all of them was to deal with the pursuit of the Mountain Suppressing King.
Su Mu used the ratio of 10:1 to mix the old and new pirates and sent them to stop Situ Zhong.
It was impossible to win. He could only try his best to buy time with human lives.
Moreover, this would not harm the core of the Hell Pirates, and most of the dead would be cannon fodder.
Su Mu didn’t want to suffer a great defeat at this critical juncture, causing him to lose all his power.
..
On the eighth day.
The two parties, one chasing and one fleeing, had already entered the distant sea.
Along the way, they clashed several times, but most of them were cannon fodder sent by Su Mu.
In addition, they also encountered some powerful sea demons.
Fortunately, both sides were strong enough to deal with these demons. At the very least, they could repel them.
Situ Zhong stood at the bow of the ship and looked into the distance. He could vaguely see some black spots in front of him.
He knew that those were the warships of the Infernal Corsairs, but he didn’t dare to chase after them recklessly.
A few days ago, Su Mu had been sending cannon fodder to die.
Situ Zhong had wiped out several batches in a row, and the battle process was extremely easy.
Just as he was feeling careless and disdainful, Su Mu gave him a vicious blow!
Su Mu used a deserted island as a cover to launch an ambush.
Due to his carelessness, Situ Zhong did not expect that these pirates would actually dare to take the initiative to counterattack. He was directly hit by the three Fire Dragon Cannons!
In this battle, Situ Zhong’s subordinates had suffered great losses.
And under the cover of the Hell Pirates, the warship carrying the three Fire Dragon Cannons had escaped!
Having suffered a great loss, Situ Zhong did not dare to pursue further. He could only surround the pirates who had escaped to the deserted island.
In the end, he became even angrier after catching them!
This was because these pirates were still cannon fodder that Su Mu had temporarily recruited, and were not core members of the Hell Pirates.
“Cunning little thief!”
Thinking of this, Situ Zhong gritted his teeth and cursed.
He had thought that it would be a simple and easy mission, but he did not expect it to be so troublesome.
The one who gave him the biggest headache was Su Mu.
The feeling that Su Mu gave him was that he was even more difficult to deal with than some of the famous generals!
However, after suffering a loss, Situ Zhong quickly adjusted his state of mind and calmed down.
The distant sea was desolate and there were few pirates.
Situ Zhong was certain that Su Mu wouldn’t be able to recruit more cannon fodders, and would use them to buy time.
Next, as long as they were not in a hurry and pressed forward with their entire army, they would be able to shorten the distance between the two sides bit by bit. That group of pirates would not be able to escape even if they had wings!
In a situation where there was a huge difference in strength between the two sides, they would definitely be able to obtain the final victory!
..
Situ Zhong had a lot of experience in naval warfare, and once he regained his composure, the situation would become unfavorable to Su Mu.
Most importantly, Su Mu had no more cannon fodder to use.
During this time, Situ Zhong had caught up once, but was repelled by the Hell Pirates.
This was the first clash between the main forces of both sides.
Situ Zhong was very surprised by this collision!
The combat power displayed by the Hell Pirates was unbelievable.
What kind of environment could create such a group of crazy pirates who were like fighting machines?
Were they not afraid of death?
What Situ Zhong didn’t know was that it was precisely because they were afraid of death that the Hell Pirates were so desperate…
However, although Situ Zhong was shocked and afraid, he was not afraid.
There was still a gap in strength between the two sides, especially the warships under his command. They were much stronger than the Hell Pirates ‘warships!
The next time they caught up, Situ Zhong decided to take action personally. He would definitely take down these pirates!
“Just you wait, the day of your destruction is not far away!”
Situ Zhong’s eyes were sharp as he stared at the black dots in the distance.
..
On the other side, Su Mu guarded the three beast statues day and night. He tried to call out to the Fierce from time to time, but he couldn’t communicate with the giant underwater monster.
It was already the eleventh day, which exceeded his original estimation.
In the last battle, the Hell Pirates only had 1,000 people left.
The next time Situ Zhong caught up to him, it would be bad!
The loss of soldiers and generals was a small matter, and there was even the possibility of being wiped!
“This big fool, why can’t I call it?”
Su Mu held the three beast statues and felt a headache coming on.
He knew that Ning’s state was not right. He was mudd-headed as if he had not fully awakened his intelligence.
Without the addition of favorable impression points, it was even harder to call it out.
Unless the statue was destroyed.
However, he was using his anger to summon Fierce, this wasn’t the result Su Mu wanted.
..
That night, Su Mu sat cross-legged on the bow of the main battleship, placing the three beast statues on his lap, and closed his eyes to meditate.
He kept calling out to the underwater monster, over and over again.
