Chapter 23 The Hunt Begins
A few days later!
Reli sea area.
A small pirate ship rises and falls with the waves. Although it is only a small pirate ship, it actually has two levels of cabins. The first level can store some items, the first level can be used for sleeping, and the living level has three cabins. Four rooms can accommodate five or six crew members.
This pirate ship was snatched by Gayus from a few kids who were just about to go out to sea. Originally, there was a hand-painted pirate flag on the mast of the pirate ship, but it had been thrown into the sea by Gayus. .
The dreams of several young people to go to sea were cut off by Gayus before they even started.
This small pirate ship is about the same size as the one Straw Hat Luffy took when he first went to sea. Although it is not the ideal ship in Gayus's mind, it is barely enough. At least he can bask in the sun on this small deck.
"It looks like there might be a storm!"
Gayus stood up from the bench on the deck, stood up, looked up at the sky, and saw that the sky was gradually covered with black clouds, knowing that it was about to rain.
Jayus controls the power of the sea. He is not afraid of the sea swallowing him up. Perhaps it is because his body is slowly transforming into a dragon. He also likes the sea very much!
If an ordinary pirate group wants to survive on the sea, it is necessary to have a navigator. Even if there is no navigator proficient in navigation on the pirate ship, there should be someone who has some knowledge of navigation technology.
Otherwise, they would have been beaten to death by the waves of the sea before they could make their mark on the Grand Line.
For example, the navigator of the Straw Hat Pirates in the original work is a real navigator who is proficient in navigation, and Nami is not only terrifying in talent, but also has the aura of the protagonist, allowing Straw Hat Luffy to avoid many dangers.
However, Gaius's ship does not need a navigator. If he is drowned by the sea, it will become a joke.
Gayus looked at the weather conditions with a calm expression, walked forward and put down the sails on the mast.
At the same time, the water at the bottom of the ship suddenly surged and began to push the ship forward.
Whoa!
Under the control of Gaius, even if there was no sea breeze blowing the sails, the boat was still sailing quickly on the sea.
"System, which sea area am I in now? Are there any islands nearby?"
"Hey! This question of the host requires one thousand reputation points!"
"Okay, here it is!"
"Dip! The host is currently staying in the western area of the Reli Sea. There are seven small islands and three medium-sized islands in this sea area. The island closest to the host is a medium-sized island 5 nautical miles away!"
"Reli Sea Area! Yes, it's right here. I remember that the Rex Pirates went to Wade Island!"
Gaius looked at the sea thoughtfully. He came to the Reli Sea area after chasing a prey that he had been staring at for a while.
He got information from the island he left. The Rex Pirates left the island two days ago and went to Wade Island in the Jeli Sea.
The pirate group generally does not stay on an island for a long time, because it will be a big trouble if it is encircled and suppressed by the navy.
Therefore, Gayus must quickly find Wade Island where the Rex Pirates are heading and loot the Rex Pirates.
"The Rex Pirates appeared in the Jelly Sea to supply fresh water and food on Wade Island. According to the style of the Rex Pirates, it is possible that they would plunder an island on an island in this area. Fan, will leave!
Therefore, even if the Rex Pirates are not on Wade Island, they will still be in this hot sea area. Let’s go to Wade Island first! "
Gayus analyzed it, recalled all the information about the Rex Pirates, and began to communicate with the system in his mind.
"System, tell me where Wade Island is?"
"Dip! One thousand reputation points!"
"Damn system. Locating an island in the South China Sea only costs 300 reputation points. How come it becomes 1000 reputation points in the first half of the Grand Line? Will the price increase when I get to the new world?"
"Hey! The host was right!"
"Profiteer! You are ruthless! Locate Wade Island!"
"Hey! The positioning has been confirmed!"
An electronic sound flashed through his mind, and Gayus seemed to see something like a miniature map in front of his eyes. The map marked his own location and the location of Wade Island.
Knowing the location of Wade Island, Gayus did not hesitate to set up a small sailboat and sail towards Wade Island.
……
quickly!
Gayus arrived at Wade Island. On this island, he found traces of the Rex Pirates. Fortunately, there was an underground trading world on this island, and Gayus also had some dealings with these guys. .
Basically, they were here to trade pirate information. After spending some Baileys, Gayus quickly got the information he needed.
"Half a day ago, the Rex Pirates plundered a small island. That island doesn't seem to be very far from Wade Island!"
"After they plunder the island, the navy branch will definitely dispatch warships to pursue them. Judging from the route, they will definitely not take this route and this..."
Gayus spent another 3000 reputation points to allow the system to fully display the sea map near the island plundered by the Rex Pirates.
Looking at the map, Gaius quickly planned the route of hunting prey. After leaving Wade Island, he followed the planned route of action.
Why can't the navy end the era of great pirates?
The large number of pirates is one reason, and another reason is that chasing and suppressing them at sea is too troublesome. In many cases, as long as the pirates leave the island quickly, the late navy will be like looking for a needle in a haystack if they want to catch them.
And Gaius also needs to bet on a probability when chasing the Rex Pirates. There are several routes, and it depends on which one the Rex Pirates choose.
on the deck.
Gaius took a high-powered telescope exchanged from the Earth in the Dragon Ball world and looked around on the sea.
"System, you won't trick me! Are you sure that the Rex Pirates have the highest probability of taking this route!" Gayus has determined several routes in total, but he does not understand navigation technology and cannot deduce that the Rex Pirates will take this route. He thought of the navigator on the X pirate group, so he chose to ask for help in the system.
The system calculated the probability of the Rex Pirates appearing on the routes chosen by Gayus.
On the route where Gayus is, the probability of the Rex Pirates appearing is 75%.
"Hey! The system only calculated the probability based on navigation knowledge and so on, and established a large database. It cannot give the host a clear answer."
"You... are a system after all... can we be more confident! Can we remove that 'unable'? It cost me almost reputation points. If this is all in vain, believe it or not." I'm in a hurry!" Jayus looked into the distance with a telescope.
Suddenly, Jayus paused and looked in one direction for a moment, with a happy look on his face.
