Upon hearing Tuoba Jie's suggestion, Wang Quanshi cursed in anger.
"Damn it, I told you to work on your reckless temper, and you still haven't changed."
Tuoba Jie replied, "Captain, we can win this fight."
Wang Quanshi nodded, "We can win, but it's unnecessary. The cost would be too high. Besides, there are powerful pirate crews nearby who might take advantage of the situation. Have you thought about that?"
Tuoba Jie was taken aback; he hadn't considered that. Indeed, there were formidable pirate crews nearby, including the Chosen One Pirate Crew.
"Captain, then let's wait until he comes out of the Mystic Realm. Those who enter the Mystic Realm usually come out with serious injuries. We can strike then without a fierce battle, making them pay some price as well."
Wang Quanshi's expression turned serious as he looked toward the Mystic Realm, filled with anticipation.
"I hope Lin Muxue can clear it. If Ye Yu is involved, the chances of success are high."
This statement surprised everyone. They still didn't know the specifics of the Mystic Realm, but Wang Quanshi seemed to have some insight. His words suggested a high likelihood of success.
"Captain, bad news, we're starting to take on water."
Wang Quanshi's face changed, "Quick, patch it up."
"There are too many leaks; we can't fix them in time. We need to leave immediately, find an island to dock, and repair there. Even if we try to patch it now, the rate of leakage will outpace our repairs."
Wang Quanshi frowned, "How are we taking on water? Didn't we avoid any holes?"
"There are too many cracks. Some of the larger ones are already leaking. If this continues, we'll sink."
"How long can we hold out?"
"About an hour. There's an island nearby; it'll take fifty minutes to get there."
"Alright, then leave me five minutes."
Wang Quanshi's face turned cold and grim.
"We can't just leave like this. Hand me the loudspeaker."
"Yes, Captain."
Wang Quanshi took the loudspeaker and looked toward the Dominant Feather Pirate Crew, his heart filled with anger. He couldn't just leave like this, not with so many pirate crews watching. Ye Yu had dealt them a blow, damaging their ship in multiple places. Leaving now would be too humiliating.
Wang Quanshi's voice boomed, and the surrounding pirate crews heard it clearly.
"Ye Yu! Listen up! Give us one of your auxiliary ships right now, and I'll pretend today never happened!"
Tuoba Jie and the others understood. They weren't leaving immediately because they wanted to save face and extract some compensation.
Hearing this, Ye Yu laughed and picked up the loudspeaker.
"Don't be ridiculous. Why would we give you anything? This is what you deserve. Get lost now, or I'll strike a few more times."
Wang Quanshi's expression darkened, "Fighting us won't do you any good. Besides, aren't you planning to participate in the upcoming Mystic Realm?"
Ye Yu didn't care, "Teaching you a lesson won't stop me from entering the Mystic Realm. As for an all-out battle, do you really want that?"
Wang Quanshi's face grew even more grim, but he soon sneered.
"Ye Yu, you'd better hand over one of your auxiliary ships now. Otherwise, we'll join forces with the Flying Sky and Overlord Pirate Crews to deal with you."
Hearing this, Tuoba Jie and the others' eyes lit up. Yes, this would surely make Ye Yu back down.
Tuoba Jie gloated, "He'll definitely cave and give us an auxiliary ship."
"It's inevitable. Originally, we wouldn't have gotten involved, as not many people have joined the Dominant Feather Pirate Crew recently. But now that they've provoked us, if they don't back down, we'll have to form an alliance. By then, they'll be even less of a match for us."
...
Immediately, the surrounding pirate crews also guessed.
"Ye Yu will definitely back down."
"Ye Yu is being irrational. Although the Azure Dragon Pirates threatened them verbally, preventing them from recruiting many people, they shouldn't have acted out just now. Even though Wang Quanshi is injured, the Azure Dragon Pirates are still quite strong. Now, if they don't give a secondary ship, when the Flying Sky and Overlord Pirate Crews take action, the Azure Dragon Pirates will also join in. That would be adding insult to injury. So, I think Ye Yu will definitely back down."
...
However, Ye Yu was unafraid.
"Go ahead and form your alliance if you want, but don't think that will scare me."
This made Wang Quanshi frown. Was he pretending to be calm?
"Hmph, how could you not be afraid? Even if your Dominant Feather Pirate Crew is strong, can you really stand against an alliance of three top pirate crews? That's impossible. Even if we suffer some casualties, as long as you dare not give us a ship, we will definitely form an alliance."
Ye Yu impatiently replied, "I won't give you a secondary ship. If you insist on something, I'll give you another slash."
With that, Ye Yu was about to leap up and draw his sword again.
Wang Quanshi and the other crew members' faces turned pale.
The ship's repairman panicked, "Captain, our ship can't take any more damage. Otherwise, we might not even make it to the distant island; we could sink before we get there."
Wang Quanshi angrily reminded, "How bold! The Chosen One Pirate Crew is also here. You have conflicts with them, and if you fight us, they will surely take the opportunity to deal with you."
Ye Yu calmly said, "Let them come."
Wang Quanshi never expected Ye Yu to be so fearless. He could only swallow his pride and look displeased.
"Turn around, let's leave!"
Immediately, the Azure Dragon Pirates' ship quickly distanced itself.
This incident quickly spread, as so many pirate crews were watching.
"What a huge embarrassment."
"They got a taste of their own medicine and had to leave in humiliation."
"Truly the Dominant Feather Pirate Crew."
"But now that they've shown off, what will they do in five days?"
...
Wang Quanshi gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"When the time comes, we'll also take action! We'll make them regret it!"
"Understood, Captain!"
"Captain, you're trending."
Wang Quanshi quickly checked and saw that not only was he leaving in disgrace, but his secret had also been exposed. Now, everyone was calling him "Toothpick."
"Damn it, delete it immediately."
"Captain, it's too late. Your reputation, along with this incident, will spread quickly."
Wang Quanshi felt deeply humiliated and regretted joining this Mystic Realm.
Some powerful pirate crews chose not to come, fearing embarrassment. Compared to the little experience gained, they didn't want the world to know about their shame, and there was no guarantee they would even pass.
Seeing them back down and leave, Ye Yu landed on the ship and looked towards the Mystic Realm.
"Let's head to the island."
Upon reaching the island, the pirates made way, and Ye Yu waited for Lin Muxue to emerge.
Li Cang and the crew gathered together, fearing Ye Yu might take the opportunity to attack them.
Li Cang felt heavy-hearted, "If they attack us before Xue Er comes out, it could be troublesome. But if they dare to strike, the Azure Dragon Pirates will surely seize the chance to return."
Li Cang comforted himself, trying not to panic too much.
Li Cang warned, "Ye Yu, don't even think about taking advantage of the situation to attack us. Our Chosen One Pirate Crew is also very strong. If you want to fight, you'll find it difficult to participate in the Mystic Realm later. For such a rare Mystic Realm, you need to enter in your best condition."
Ye Yu sneered, "Don't worry, I won't take the opportunity to start a war with your Pirate Crew."
This made Li Cang feel somewhat relieved.
Ye Yu gave a cold smile, "However, I just want to vent my anger on you. Back then, you also made threats, which prevented us from recruiting anyone."
This caused Li Cang's expression to change, and he instinctively took a step back.
