King of Assassins
Chapter 619 - 477: Looks a Bit Familiar
The six Pirate Kings, the youngest of whom is over four hundred years old.
They have fought countless battles, and only through these struggles have they climbed up step by step to become Pirate Kings.
As far back as they can remember, the Black Banner Alliance has never been attacked by an external force.
Now, hearing the Black Banner King's words, their homeland is about to be attacked?
The Purple Dragon King hurriedly asked, "Boss, is the Alliance sending a large army to besiege us?"
For pirates, the term "Boss" is simple yet full of power. Even after becoming kings, everyone continues to refer to the Black Banner King as "Boss."
Many Pirate Kings also looked at the Black Banner King.
Sitting in a high-backed chair, the Black Banner King wore a fully enclosed black battle armor, with only two dark holes on the face armor, making it impossible for anyone to see his expression or read his gaze.
The Pirate Kings only glanced at him briefly before retracting their gaze. Although the Black Banner King had never forbidden direct eye contact, all Pirate Kings were particularly humble in his presence, and no one dared to be disrespectful.
The Black Banner King said calmly, "It's not the Alliance deploying troops. It could be a strong individual, or it could be an organization. All you need to do is to be careful..."
The Black Banner King has many friends among the Alliance's high ranks. If the Alliance were truly to send troops, they could never hide it from him.
Moreover, a fleet expedition would require massive personnel and material movements.
Through the Moisture Hall, the Black Banner King can observe various data. Once abnormal movement of supplies occurs, he can quickly detect issues.
The Black Banner King only felt a danger warning from his divine intuition. As for where the warning came from, he can only use the process of elimination.
If it's not the Alliance, it could be a noble family or an organization.
Generally speaking, even a reckless noble family like the Qin wouldn't provoke the Black Banner Alliance.
As for other organizations, as long as their leaders are still sane, they wouldn't act recklessly.
Though other Evil Gods may be brainless, it's difficult for a brainless Evil God Organization to mature.
This time, the Black Banner King sensed an extremely dangerous warning, determining the situation to be severe. Yet he doesn't know where the danger originates.
From the current situation, the enemy might be Gao Xuan!
Hercules was beaten and humiliated by two Pirate Kings; how could they have the qualifications to seek revenge on the Black Banner Alliance?
Only Gao Xuan has the capability to kill two Pirate Kings and has the qualification to seek vengeance on the Black Banner Alliance.
Judging by this young man's actions, he has always been bold and fearless, daring to confront anyone.
The Black Banner King is somewhat curious about Gao Xuan, as this young man quickly came to prominence without knowing his background.
However, could Gao Xuan alone be the cause of such strong warnings?
The Black Banner King finds it hard to believe, as Gao Xuan dares not face Qin Wu; how skilled could he be?
Did he gain something after going to the Celestial Battle Realm?
This is quite reasonable.
The Celestial Battle Realm is filled with various divine artifacts. With good luck, obtaining a heaven-defying divine artifact isn't unusual.
The Black Banner King did not share his conjecture, thinking that if he guessed wrong, it would be embarrassing.
This group of subordinates may not be very smart, but they are very capable in combat.
No matter who comes, as soon as action is taken their identity will be exposed.
The Black Banner King ordered all Pirate Kings to be vigilant, strengthen defenses, and then adjourned the meeting.
After the meeting, the Red Dragon King sat uneasily in the main control room, as he is responsible for patrolling the Black Banner Alliance's perimeter this year.
This position is actually quite relaxed, with substantial resource subsidies for the fleet. Occasionally, he can go out on a raid, so it's considered a good position.
However, if there is an external invasion, it will be troublesome.
Despite the vastness of the Black Banner Star Realm, with a total of nine administrative stars, theoretically it can be invaded from any direction.
In practice, the Black Banner Star Realm has only two space nodes connected to the outside. Enemies trying to cross the star realm can only use these two space nodes.
The Red Dragon King is tasked with protecting these two space nodes; once the enemy enters, he must be the first to meet them in combat.
The fact that the Black Banner King took special care to remind them suggests that the enemy must be formidable.
The lack of news from Tie Shan King and Black Eagle King only adds to the Red Dragon King's unease.
Among the ten Pirate Kings of the Black Banner Alliance, the strongest is undoubtedly the Black Banner King, followed by Tie Shan.
Tie Shan appears to be slow, but his body is incredibly strong. His spirit is highly unified with his physical body, making him extremely fearsome in direct combat.
The Black Eagle King is a notch lower, but he's cunning and insidious. In the face of true danger, he would definitely flee first.
The absence of news from these two suggests something has happened to them.
The Red Dragon King is worried, yet he doesn't dare abandon his post. The Black Banner King is indulgent with them, but his orders are not to be compromised.
The Red Dragon King, of course, has made some friends, and he contacted many channels through the Dark Web, but he couldn't find out any information.
The external world knows nothing about the Sea Emperor Star Realm. This in itself is quite strange.
For safety, the Red Dragon King deployed another fleet to patrol.
Two fully organized fleets, consisting of a total of twelve Triangular Ghost Fish Battleships. They are the main battleships, about seventy to eighty percent new.
Unless going out for a raid, under normal circumstances, the Red Dragon King is reluctant to deploy the main battleships.
While the Black Banner Alliance can steal anything else, acquiring battleships, especially main battleships, is difficult. Their combat power is exceptional. Even if defeated, what is gained is inevitably a scarred, incomplete battleship.
To obtain a complete battleship, they must purchase it with money. Due to the Alliance's legal restrictions, buying a battleship costs them ten times the market price.
Those unscrupulous companies have made a fortune from them.
How the fleet of the Black Banner Alliance is managed depends entirely on the capabilities of the leading Pirate King.
