The pirates retreated like a flood, what a majestic view.

Ouyang Shuo put away the Tianmo Spear held by Farrah's neck and emotionlessly said, ”Scram!”

Farrah was evidently shocked. When he regained his senses, he escaped, battered and beaten. When they saw their leader leave, the members of the Hunting Leopard Mercenary Squad followed.

Ouyang Shuo kept his promise to Farrah.

As for the other members of the Hunting Leopard Mercenary Group, they did not receive the same treatment. As they retreated, they were relentlessly slaughtered by the navy soldiers.

The soldiers had not forgotten that these traitors had caused them to suffer heavy causalities.

The sword-shield soldiers were in charge of intercepting them while the archers shot. They even used the cannons to shoot at the players that boarded the small boats, showing the level of hatred the soldiers felt toward them.

The exhausted pirates that were running for their lives definitely would not help. With someone taking the hits for them, they were delighted. Why would they seek out trouble for themselves?

In the end, less than two thousand members of the Hunting Leopard Mercenary Group succeeded in escaping.

...

Looking at the escaping figure of Farrah, Ouyang Shuo was silent.

Obviously, he could have sent Farrah to his death. He could have even done it more beautifully and let the Somalia players deal with him and just say, ”I promised not to kill you; I didn't mean the other players wouldn't.”

Unfortunately, no matter how he tried to cover it, he would have broken his promise.

A person without credibility was nothing.

Even against enemies, one could not lose their credibility. To Lords, even future kings, today, you might lose the faith and trust of someone; tomorrow, you might lose the world.

There were thousands of methods to deal with Farrah, so why would he rush matters?

It was the same as losing massive gains for short term rewards.

Letting Farrah go was like releasing a tiger back into the mountains. However, his survival was not gifted by Ouyang Shuo. Instead, it was exchanged for with the lives of the members of the Hunting Leopard Mercenary Group.

Since it was an exchange, Ouyang Shuo needed to keep his promise.

As for how Farrah was going to come back, that was the problem of the Somalia players. Having a common enemy was certainly a good thing for the cooperation between Shanhai City and Somalia.

...

”Chase!”

Zheng He ordered the squadron to return fire at the pirates.

”Fire!” The cannoneers were back in position; their eyes filled with the fires of hatred.

Hong! Long! Long! The cannonballs exploded on the ocean surface, causing great splashes. The pirates onboard the small boats were instantly killed, blown into shreds.

In terms of cannon warfare on the oceans, the voyage squadron was the absolute king; just their name would terrify their enemies.

After suffering heavy casualties, the pirate ships did not wait for everyone to board, immediately leaving and scattering. Black pirate ships were scattered everywhere across the ocean, what a beautiful sight.

The pirates who were abandoned could only shout out helplessly; desperation filled their eyes.

Helping the Somalia players hunt the pirates could not be considered a country war. Hence, although Ouyang Shuo could earn some merit points from killing them, it was nothing compared to a country war.

Even so, how would Ouyang Shuo purely chase and kill the enemy? He instructed Zheng He to capture some pirates and turn them sailors to make up for the losses they took in this battle.

Zheng He understood the Lord's intentions, so he ordered the cannoneers to fire at the large pirate ships. After sinking them, they would not bother with the enemy anymore and continue aiming at the next one.

At the same time, they sent out many cima boats to capture pirates. As long as they could keep their lives, why wouldn't they surrender?

It was even to the point where the moment the Cima boats approached, there were pirates screaming their surrender.

The scene was truly amusing.

Such a chase meant that the number of prisoners increased exponentially. Even members of the Hunting Leopard Mercenary Group were locked up on the warships.

This battle finally ended at 3 PM.

In the ocean region near Sky Wolf Island, numerous wreckages of warships floated about. The pirate ships that were destroyed had sunk to the bottom of the ocean.

To w would be really difficult.

During this battle, 20 thousand members of the three pirate organizations died, 20 thousand were captured, and only 10 thousand managed to escape.

The Gulf of Aden was going to be peaceful for quite some time.

Of course, just as Ouyang Shuo had expected, it would be extremely difficult to completely root them out. Soon, they would rise again.

As for whether the leaders would still be those three organizations, only time couldl tell.

After taking care of affairs such as treating the wounded, dealing with casualties, and handling the war prisoners, it was already 4 PM.
