Chapter 3670 Better To Fight To The Death
The pirate leaders, such as Solo, Bluer, Octaclaw, and Rocky, all had dramatic changes in their expressions, as if the sky had fallen.novelbin
They all rushed toward their respective flagship vessels, bellowing at their subordinates, "Hurry! Hurry! Board the spaceship and prepare for battle!"
The pirates, having battled for a long time, still maintained a commendable level of execution.
Pirates of all shapes and sizes could be seen rushing toward their respective spaceships, swiftly boarding them.
Next, a variety of models, even those bizarrely modified pirate spaceships, were hastily taking off one after another.
Toothless also boarded his own flagship.
Even though he was the renowned King of the Space Pirates, at that very moment, his team was arguably the weakest, with only three spaceships to their name. He requested to initiate a call with Solo.
Soon, The Formidable Five, along with the other pirate captains, joined the temporary communication network one after another. Their diverse faces appeared in the video communication. Toothless said, "What do we do? We're surrounded by two fleets of the Gods. Let's discuss if we should unite for battle or band together to break through."
With so many pirate groups gathered there, if they were to all unite and fight, they could have a chance of repelling those two Gods' fleets.
However, the fear was that during combat, if everyone was not united, with some fighting to the death and others seizing the opportunity to flee, the consequences would be unimaginable. Additionally, if they were to stand together to resist, even if they were to temporarily repel those two Gods' fleets, they would likely be issued a universal arrest warrant, leading to a long-term manhunt.
If given the chance to escape, in reality, no pirate crew would willingly want to incur the deep-seated wrath of the gods.
After all, the Gods were so powerful. Being endlessly pursued by them would make life unbearable.
Rocky also asked everyone, "What do you guys think?"
With a cold laugh, Octaclaw said, "What right dowe, a motley crew, have to fight against the Gods' regular army? The fear is that once the fight starts, someone might seize the opportunity to slip away. In my opinion, we should all break out together."
Bluer and Solo also chimed in with agreement, saying that was indeed a good plan. Whoever managed to escape was the lucky one, and whoever failed to escape was simply out of luck. Seeing that everyone was unwilling to fight together but decided to break through and run away, Toothless couldn't help but sigh quietly.
He became even more worried about his own fate.
After all, he had handed over the main fleet of his pirate group to Nathan. Then, he only had three spaceships left, and his group was on the blacklist of the Gods. Breaking out would probably be as difficult as ascending to heaven. The space pirates decided to break out.
However, The Formidable Five was astute. They all understood that the spaceship that broke through first would undoubtedly face a fierce counterattack from the Gods.
Hence, they indicated that they would let the weaker pirate groups break through first, and they would closely follow behind.
The weaker pirate captains, although disgruntled by that decision, had no choice but to accept it. Their strength was inferior to that of The Formidable Five, and with a formidable enemy at hand, they had no means to resist.
They could only brace themselves for a break through, hoping Lady Luck would favor them.
In no time, several small pirate
groups, totaling more than twenty spaceships, took the lead in
e'
breaking out toward the north. They aimed to tear through the encirclement of the two major fleets of the Gods, fighting for their survival.
The idea was quite good, but the reality was harsh.
Their breakout attempt was discovered almost immediately.
Crimson Moon Fleet was dispatched for immediate interception.
Several small pirate groups, with over twenty spaceships, were all destroyed within ten minutes.
The Formidable Five, along with the other pirate groups, were so frightened that they dared not make any rash moves or attempt to break out at will.
Seeing that, Toothless took the
opportunity to say, "Everyone, you've
seen it too. The Gods are
determined to kill us. They won't easily give us a chance to break out. Why don't we band together and fight them to the death? If we manage to resist them, we can all get through this disaster unscathed."
