Chapter 484: So what?
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Following the emergence of this middle-aged male, another 18 pirates strolled out of the hold in succession. They were even gesticulating at the 3-masted ‘Galen’ Galley ship Sheyan and his crew had commandeered, while teases of ‘how much yer think it can fetch?’ or ‘courtin’ death’ could be heard.
By exhibiting such a conduct in front of Sheyan and his crew, they weren’t merely expressing their superiority, but obviously provoking them!!
While those pirates jested and laughed, they unanimously sauntered towards the gangplank of the 3-masted ‘Galen’ Galley ship. They were utterly treating Sheyan and his crew like air. Sheyan didn’t speak, instead, his lips curled into a sneer. Striding forward in large steps, he targeted a gratified stomp towards the foremost brat. Indeed, the victim was that monkey brat that was currently rambling non-stop!
Sheyan’s current strength was 45* points! The might of his stomp was unimaginable, kicking that brat 5-6 metres away into the air. That monkey brat crashed and rolled several rounds back onto the pirate ship deck; utterly paralyzed on the ground, while coughing large mouthfuls of blood. Sheyan arrogantly stood before the gangplank, and coldly issued.
(TN:*probably his gene-mix no longer in effect, but his necklace’s ‘Format’ in effect)
"Which scoundrel do ye scurvy dogs belong to? You dare to behave atrociously in my presence?"
The expressions of those pirates instantly sank. Sheyan’s words were brazenly humiliating them, but the might of his recent kick had shook them utterly. A brat wearing a red bandana retreated 2-3 steps, before cursing out.
"Ye scallywag dare offend the direct subordinate of me grand Captain Chevalle ? Who be ye doesn’t matter anymore, get ready to be dried out while tied to the mast!"
Sheyan was slightly taken aback. He understood that Captain Chevalle was one of the authentic 7 great Pirate Lords*; a peak superpower who was implicitly known as the commander of this battlefield. One simply couldn’t compare him to Ammand, who hadn’t risen to prominence yet. If this crew really belonged to his direct subordinate, this would truly signify trouble. Moreover, the pirates under Sheyan similarly revealed horrified expressions on their faces.
(TN: Note that in PotC, there are 9 pirate lords in the third movie, while this is set before the first movie. Also, author combines the game, Uncharted Waters 4, into this world. In uncharted waters 4, it details 7 proof of the conqueror)
Nevertheless, Sheyan was an astute and decisive character. He only asked himself one question – could they give up the ship he was standing on?
Sheyan’s answer was obviously, "impossible". Hence, confidence immediately surged within him; since giving up is impossible, then go all out instead! Coincidentally, another grey bandana pirate viewed Sheyan’s hesitance as fear, and directly pointed towards Sheyan’s face as he rebuked loudly.
"How much blood me matey coughed out, that be the times you will be hacked! If ye knows fear, then obediently offer up tis’ boat!"
Another pirate stood forward while ingratiating himself with laughters.
"I can tell tis’ a smooth-skinned bastard, let us stick up his buttocks for some jolly good fun. Let’s say we leave him a way out, after we be havin’ our fun, aye?"
By now, the expressions of the pirates under Sheyan had drastically sank, and their morale dissipated; shaking their heads, they sighed. Instead, Sheyan cracked his head, as his lips leaked a grim ridicule.
"You bunch amaze me."
After his words faded, a vicious slap was struck forth. Instantly, that gay pirate felt as though a giant hammer had directly smashed his face, as he stumbled many steps backwards; an eyeball of his had ruptured, while innards dangled from his face. He was about to scream, but instead, a pool of blood mangled with teeth slipped out from his widened mouth; akin to rain infused with hails!
Overwhelmed with shock and rage, that red bandana pirate behind pulled out his weapon and hacked forward alongside another pirate comrade. At the instant of descending shimmering blades, Sheyan stamped forward uprightly like a lofty mountain; dawning an imposing impression of a tremendous guardian! Without evading, those broadswords stabbed/slashed against his body as blood exploded forth!
At this instant, the expressions of Sheyan’s pirates changed. Howling vehemently, they charged forward in aid! Instead, Sheyan issued a chilling scoff.
"Reckless fools!"
Sheyan fiercely reached out with his gripping hands. Though his current action seemed very straightforward, it was executed swiftly and seemingly impossible to block. It didn’t matter if that red bandana pirate hastily retracted his hand while crying out in fear, as Sheyan gripped him unyieldingly.
Under the massive pressure of 45 points of strength, fracturing shatters emitted from the shackled wrist of that red bandana pirate; as he immediately released a blood-curdling scream. Pirates were individuals with reckless mindsets, but they still esteemed the strong and valiant. With the red bandana brat screaming pathetically, not only had he thrown away his own face, he even caused his pirate head, Alonzo, to adopt an ugly expression.
Sheyan gently folded his wrist. Kacha! He directly snapped the red bandana pirate’s wrist like a chopstick, accompanied by his mournful wails. Gently drooping him forward, Sheyan quickly followed up with a backhanded slap; sending the red bandana pirate flying away.
Without voicing a single word of resistance, that red bandana pirate was sent flying as he crashed against a nearby mast. Tumbling several rolls down, before sprawling limpidly across the ground; his body convulsing before death’s door.
Quickly and easily, Sheyan whacked the remaining pirates to the ground, before he scoffed.
"Tying me to the mast and drying me out? Hmph! Since my mood is good today, I shall leave you a way out….mates!"
At this moment, the pirates under Sheyan’s command streamed forward with unprecedented excitement, as they shouted sternly.
"Aye!"
Harboring malicious intents, Sheyan glanced towards those pirate scum.
"F**kers! I saved your dog lives, but in turn, you dare to provoke me? Biting the hands that feed you, you dare to seize my battle spoils?! I shan’t have your lives today, but I shall have you lot stripped! And hang you lot of naked pigs atop my mast! I’ll let everyone observe the consequences of provoking me, Seaman Yan!"
"You scum dare!!!"
That red bandana pirate was originally playing dead, but upon hearing Sheyan’s words, his vision seemingly darkened and he passed out! As the saying goes, a human lives with his face, while a tree its bark. To be stripped like naked pigs, and paraded on a mast around the battlefield; wouldn’t death be better? Not only the british navy, but even Captain Chevalle’s reputation would be ruined; as good as having his heart torn asunder!
Instead, Sheyan’s pirate crew felt exceedingly resolved, as the bulk of them pounced forward to attend to this ‘undressing’.
To the pirates, having their pants tugged at, was an indescribably shameful scene. Strictly speaking, they were nevertheless the underlings of Captain Chevalle’s underling. They had adopted the identity of foxes who exploited the tiger’s might. Merely relying on the illustrious reputation of Captain Chevalle, they would normally receive respect wherever they went. Regardless of strength or a sense of superiority, they belonged to a cut above the rest. Yet presently, they were being viciously beaten by others, moveover, they were on the verge of being stripped into naked pigs to be hung onto the ship’s mast. Such an insult, couldn’t simply be described.
"If ye have the guts, kill me!!"
Those few pirates howled feverishly, as though their eye sockets were about to split; appearing on the verge of being infuriated to death, as though their eyeballs were about to rupture.
All of a sudden, a chaotic upheaval resounded from the pirate ship’s hold, as several tens of pirates came rushing out. They immediately noticed their bare buttocks comrades, who presently had expressions identical to being flayed alive. The leader of that pack, a one-eyed large chap, bellowed fanatically.
"Seaman Yan, ye be seekin’ yer own demise. Ye be truly courting death, to have the guts to dishonour me crewmates, the Sharks of the Mediterranean sea. We will never let you off, just wait for your destiny of having yer corpse divided by the sharks of the Caribbean sea! Your life be mine!"
He concluded his sentence by blatantly heaving up two hatchets in his hands, before forcefully hurling them over!
When that one-eyed chap hurled his dual hatchets across, his sudden outburst of strength led to the manifold bandages along his body to rip apart; his wounds split open, as blood came gushing out! Instead, his dual hatchets swivelled thunderously in midair; one hatchet curved towards Sheyan with lightning speed, while the other beheaded towards an old pirate who had just stripped the pants of the red bandana pirate!
Evidently, this must be the true captain of this pirate ship. Sheyan roared sonorously.
"Reef!"
Naturally, Reef intuitively understood, as he activated his ‘Courage’ ability; rushing horizontally towards the stunned old pirate. That old pirate, had been an underling of unmatched loyalty and obedience to Sheyan; disregarding the awe-inspiring name of Captain Chevalle, he would charge straightforwardly upon Sheyan’s every command. If Sheyan allowed his body to be decapitated in the sight of onlookers, who would dare to courageously trudge forward to his commands in the future?
A rich brilliance of blue radiated out, as Sheyan unsheathed his saber! Exhaling vigorously, he summoned his strength and swung towards the incoming hatchet! Kiank clank!! The sounds of metallic clashing pierced into the air, vibrating sonorously in the ears of everyone present. Sparks and blue glitters scattered in all directions, as the massive frame of this ship tremored over the ocean!
Sheyan deflected the flying hatchet towards the side. Instead, that hatchet appeared like it had sentience; revolving as it carved an arc in the air, before returning to its master’s hand. In spite of that, Sheyan’s arms had turned numbed from the collision, as he staggered backwards from the impact. Besides, a hatchet was a heavier weapon, and using his long saber to block against it was barely enough.
Instead, that old pirate who had lurched forward to undress others, wasn’t so fortunate. His individual prowess were too low, and though Reef aided in the nick of time, one of his arm was still chopped off; instantly, he passed out from the searing pain and blood loss!
At this moment, Mogensha had already supplied the information pertaining to this pirate captain.

[ Description: One-eyed Hog lost his left eye due to carelessness during a brawl. 3 days later, he heaved two hatchets and carved out the brains of the culprit. After drifting abroad for several years, he realized he favoured the life of a pirate. This is a savage individual who trampled over the corpse of countless lieutenants. His generosity to his subordinates is his merit, but has led to him falling short on paying tributes to Captain Chevalle; causing him to become marginalized. ]
