Chapter 567: Ocean’s Merriment

Sheyan snapped his fingers as he naturally beckoned for Jinkuang to surface. He then advised dimly.

"This is my most devoted servant, he will be the one servicing you. You can relay all your requests to him. Do you wish for your family lineage to be terminated or put in a measly few months of labour to earn a fortune for the rest of your life…..everything is determined by your choice. Escort Mister Shawen out!"

Shawen’s teeth chattered clamorously yet he offered zero resistance.

Along their journey of escorting Shawen, Sheyan and company brushed shoulders with several undead Black Pearl pirates who were still engaging in widespread pillaging.

Fortunately, their main objectives were now directed towards the navy armories and camp, as well as the governor’s mansion. Although some pirate scums posed a little trouble, they weren’t delayed for that long.

Soon, the few Dingyuan pirates finally ascended back up their ship.

From a distance, Port Royal remained like a boiling bowl of porridge, bubbling with fiery chaos.

Following that, Jinkuang didn’t take much effort to finally convince Shawen, because Shawen’s stubborn spirit had been utterly diluted after realizing he actually had a son. Never did he expect that his single clandestine love affair with his sister-in-law, had unexpectedly been fruitful!

Throughout the journey, Shawen’s ears had been echoing with Mogensha’s words – ‘the child hasn’t experienced a father’s love’, causing waves of indescribable guilt to overwhelm his stiff heart.

Hence, after receiving the guarantee of large amounts of remuneration, Shawen finally released a sigh and lowered his haughty chin. Then, he came before Sheyan and expressed his willingness to serve.

Sheyan then hastily produced the two items he was dying to have convert to battle capabilities.

The first item was indeed the Baladine Bloodsail that had strangely transformed into an iron rod.

The second item was the dark-gold grade material Sheyan had procured back at the auction.

Even though Shawen had been infuriated with ships all his life, he couldn’t help receiving a huge shock after witnessing the two items Sheyan produced.

Although the method of refining a Baladine Bloodsail wasn’t really a classified secret, it required the prerequisites of an extravagant amount of vengeful spirits. Afterwards, pouring those vengeful spirits in was absolutely not something an individual could accomplish. A domineering and imposing force comparable to a nation, must be present to accomplish this massive feat!

In the past, the gypsy clan was only able to discretely defy the dark ages of catholicism rule due to the establishment of this Baladine Bloodsail. The gypsies of this era were merely reprocessing and enhancing this invincible treasure of their predecessors.

After carefully examining the Baladine Bloodsail, Shawen then accessed the dark-gold grade material.

Shawen didn’t rely on his eyes to examine it, but instead caressed it gently with his hands. His fingers slid through the vein lines of this material, and after a good long while, the trio finally received a notification.

[ Your purchased mysterious material has finally been appraised ]

[ Deep Sea Giant Tendons ]

[ Grade: Dark-gold ]

[ Description: Deep Sea Giants are fabled creatures who can upsurge tiny scale tsunamis, with a casual swipe of their humongous iron anchors. It is said they are the protectors of the tranquility and cleanliness of the ocean. When this 18 feet, 10,000 pounds giant appears before you, please seize the pressing time to start your prayers. Because to date, it is said that only Davy Jones had survived from an encounter with them. Other rumours includes him being related to these sea giants by blood ]

[ Description: An aged old Sea GIant loved to bask in the warmth of the sun. One day, while basking comfortably beneath the sun on the island he usually frequently, Hades gently claimed his life through his nightmare ]

[ Description: Usually, a sea giant’s corpse would disintegrate into bubbles and evaporate. However, due to its human like dietary customs and ailments, its ligaments were preserved for unknown reasons. No doubt, its tendons were employed as exceptionally incredible ship building materials. Yet, it suffices to say there is no ship builder with the experience of utilizing such a rare material. Therefore, only a bold and creative shipbuilder can assist this incomparably precious material to exhibit its hundred percent potential ]

After inspecting these ‘Deep Sea Giant Tendons’, Shawen repeatedly poured rum into his mouth. Instead, his muddled old eyes started to become increasingly clear.

Without warning, he fetched a random sailor hatchet on the ship and heftily hack down against the wooden deck!

Although Shawen wasn’t a meek and kindly individual, he probably didn’t commit heinous crimes of murder and arson ever since young. Though he hacked with great strength, it merely left a distinct white trace on the deck where he had no choice but to concede defeat to the toughness of ironwood.

Observing this state, Shawen thought pensively before he hurriedly propped up his crutches, and hobbled towards the bottommost area of the ship.

Seeing this, Sheyan understood that Shawen was definitely headed to scrutinize the ship’s keel.

Actually, the trio had inspected the keel of this ship long ago.

Due to the impossibility of finding such a gigantic iron wood stump, the keel was an assembly of ten over different iron wood stumps linked together through a special method; before being sealed up with occult magic. A keel of the highest quality. Although this method was inferior to a completely intact wood stump, it was still operating with exceptional performance.

After inspecting a round of the entire ship, Shawen stoned for quite some time.

All of a sudden, he fumed angrily and immediately commanded for the ship to be brought nearer to the shore. Then, with the assistance of Taitish, he ordered the other pirates to get down from the ship.

As Sheyan held the blackmailing card of Shawen’s illegitimate child in his hands, he could sit at ease in a fishing boat despite the storms*; thus, rendering Shawen free reign to torture his ship.

(TN:*chinese idiom, it means staying cool headed even in a crisis)

Half an hour later, nothing happened on board.

Yet soon after, the trio could suddenly sense a pressing pulse of chilling energy! One must understand, the temperature of the caribbean sea was roughly above twenty degrees at night, yet hoar frost had appeared by the shore!

Very quickly, epic multitudes of fishes started to encircle this ship. Upon touching the ship’s hull, those fishes would rupture where its blood and flesh would be dissolved in.

Following closely, an awe-inspiring dark-golden glitter glowed from the ship’s bow. With that glittering glow as its nucleus, the glitters gradually extended out as three meandering lines. Not long after those lines spreaded out, it branched out like the veins and arteries of a tree; filling up every nook and corner of the ship.

Spectating this scene, Reef spoke with a shock.

"Could it be, Shawen is actually trying to dissolve the ‘Deep Sea Giant Tendons’ into the entire hull of the ship? If we consider the ironwood frame as a human’s skeleton, then at this moment, the vascular system of the human have been formed. Isn’t that considered as the ligaments, arteries, and meridians of our ship?"

This mystical phenomenon persisted for close to an hour before gradually dissipating.

After this restructuring, the Dingyuan’s surface was no longer smooth and glossy. Instead, meandering protrusions and distortions tarnished several areas on the ship. It was as if they were swollen bruises on a human’s body.

If one were to carefully prance about, one would perceive that the ship was still as hard as before, but now contained a pliable toughness seen in that of living organisms.

Instantaneously, Sheyan received the notification.

[ The ‘Deep Sea Giant Tendons’ have been integrated into the hull of your flagship, The Dingyuan ]

[ Quasi-legendary ability: Transcended Steel (Passive) – After an upgrade, the durability of this ship is raised by 50% and its damage absorption capabilities is raised by 33%. The speed decline of this ship is reduced from 35% to 30% ]

[ Rank A ability: Nature’s Prevailment (passive) – After an upgrade, the Dingyuan’s hull can now absorb essence from the surrounding sea creatures. No blood rite will be needed anymore. Furthermore, the self mending speed of the ship is increased by 33% ]

[ Received new ability: Ocean’s Merriment – This ability can only be activated when the captain is steering the ship. Other forcible activation will result in sharply weakened effects ]

[ Details: Summon the soul of Deep Sea Giant, Bababo, to incite an ocean merriment. A tempestuous tsunami would be incited within a designated region. Within this tsunami region, the Dingyuan’s sailing speed would be raised by 100% while other creatures/ships would have their speed reduced by 50% ]

[ Details: Casting this ability requires the blood rite of three lives. Within an hour after activation, the soul of the Deep Sea Giant, Bababo, would no longer respond to your summoning ]

[ Ocean’s Merriment lasts for 200 - 500 seconds. This figure is determined by the souls of your blood rite. The stronger the souls sacrificed, the longer duration the soul of Deep Sea Giant Babasa can linger ]

At present, the pirates were all swarming forward as they excitedly cried and toured their ‘new’ ship. Instead, Shawen and Taitish both appeared extremely exhausted, as they limpidly rested on chairs without budging.

Shawen then glanced to Sheyan and panted.

"Seaman Yan, 10,000 guineas!"

Sheayn accepted his demand.

"Not an issue! What about the Baladine Bloodsail?"

Shawen drank down several mouthfuls of rum, before he paused briefly and slowly asked.

"Do you know what a magnet is?"

Sheyan nodded. Shawen then produced two magnet rocks. Allowing them to oppose each other, he naturally created a repelling magnetic force. Shawen then coughed violently and continued.

"This is the concept of the Baladine Bloodsail. At present, the quantities of vengeful spirits accumulated in the Bloodsail is more than adequate. However, there is an absence of master spirits to control them. Thus, master spirits are required to act as a base to provide a dynamic lift in contention against the weight of those vengeful spirits. I will attempt to undo the master spirit enchantment lock with Taitish, but you will need to start hunting down various kinds of sea creatures!"

"Every time you slaughter a legendary sea creature, its spirit would be absorbed into the Baladine Bloodsail to be used as a master spirit. The stronger the spirits absorbed, the larger the dynamic lifting effect of those vengeful spirits will be."
