Chapter 743 - Naval Warfare 2

"Looks like we'll have to endure a few more days then,

" Angela commented to the people in that place while she had an annoyed expression on her beautiful face.

The people on that other warship then saw her turn around, walking into the interior of her own ship as she gave her orders in a loud voice.

"Give the signal for the rest of the personnel to follow us. We're going to the next coastal city, in the Cromwell Kingdom!

"

And almost immediately after the orders were given, several soldiers ran back and forth on that ship. Some were doing what was necessary for the ship to change direction, while others were running to the places where the sound arrays were.

They were rushing to send the sound signals to the other 19 warships under the army's command in this place to get the operation here started!

With that, it wasn't long before sound arrays began to sound on each of those ships, some with Collins family symbols, others with Brown family symbols. In any case, this sound signal was not loud enough to be noticed by everyone in the area.

Therefore, only the people on those ships in question understood what was happening, while the opponents in that place were simply watching them.

Then Angela turned back to the people on that ship that had approached hers, waving and saying a few words,

"Well, we're leaving. I hope you will settle your affairs quickly. Maritime City is a necessary post for our region.

"

"Yes, we will sort it out...

"

"Anyway, good riddance to you.

"

Soon after, they realized that each of the ships in that fleet, including the one Angela was on, was moving, turning their bows from the east direction to the south. As they saw this, the people on that Brown family warship soon felt better about that outcome.

'I'm glad they're leaving without causing any trouble...'

'I've heard that the Collins are very bold and like to show what they are capable of. But it seems that the truth is not so simple.'

'They're kind of understanding!'

"Sigh... It's a relief that they're going, isn't it, Captain?

" Someone asked that man who had talked to Angela earlier, while several other people there had thoughts of the most varied kind.

"Yes, but that was to be expected. After all, we are part of a royal family, and they haven't gotten there yet!

"

"The problem here was if they had already found out about our losses to the mere Black Plain. That would be a disgrace to our Brown family!

" The ship captain commented as he watched Angela's ship and the others in that fleet staying perpendicular to theirs.

To have an organization in their state that had gone so far as to rebel and cause significant damage to a royal house was something considered humiliating in this region.

That was because each royal family was mighty numerically and financially, to the point that the other regional powers had virtually no chance of developing to such an extent.

Even so, for a vassal organization to develop and become a threat to a royal family, this could only mean two things. Either that a royal family was a disgrace, run by incompetents, who had even allowed a parasite to develop to the point of threatening them, or that the other side was simply impressive.

But being impressive was very difficult!

As such, if a royal family asked for help in confronting an internal enemy, then such an organization would certainly have to endure the humiliation of being considered incompetent, negligent, and the like.

On the other hand, someone with a dirty image might not be so frightening or respectable as to prevent certain acts with his name alone. That is, it would be better if people knew that royal families do not tolerate certain things and that if someone were to break such rules, he would only meet his end.

But if one can rebel and even develop in tranquility, how long would criminal organizations, people with criticisms against that family, and so on, fear such power?

Being respected was not so different from having power in the Spiritual World!

If a royal family is careless and slow to act, it won't be long before tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people begin to get out of control!

For all that, these people placed so much value on the image and tried to hide the truth of what was happening locally.

Suppose things went wrong in the future, and one day it was necessary for them to ask for help. In that case, they could at least do so because they were facing an impressive opponent and not because they were incompetent. But until then, protecting their image was just as important as fighting revolutionaries.

They would maintain a powerful image for the regional citizens at the very least!

In any case, while the people on that warship from before were relieved to see Angela's group preparing to leave, the same thing was happening on almost all of those 34 Brown family ships.

Except for the three ships under the command of the Black Plain Army soldiers, all the other people on those royal family ships were feeling less pressured by noticing the movement of those 17 warships.

They were still paying attention to the movement of the newcomers. Still, considering that such ships were making outward movements, it was logical for nothing to happen here. So, the people in that area were much more relaxed right now.

"Haha, it's a good thing those are Collins family warships. If they were uncharacterized ships, I think we probably would have been in trouble!

"

"By the way, does that traitor have a naval fleet?

"

"Impossible!

"

"Producing warships is not easy, and few organizations in our region are capable of doing it at a similar level to ours. On that account, if he had bought something, we would have noticed!

"

Some people talked this over on one of those warships around the defensive belt that was protecting the coast of Maritime City.

"On the other hand, it would be challenging for that brat's organization to manage to steal warships of the same level as ours...

"

"The most he can get are pirate ships in...

" The same person as before was about to say this when suddenly a distinctive sound spread throughout that area, coming from five ships of the Brown family.

The moment that sound came, Angela jumped off the ship she was on, heading towards the enemy's that was close to hers, at the same time circulating her energy, ready to fight.

That was the beginning of it all, and she couldn't miss the opportunity to capture this ship before things got complicated!

She might not be strong enough to fight cannonballs or try to sink these ships with her powers alone, but she could take a ship with ease.

The only thing she needed to do was find a way into such a ship!

After doing so, unless there was someone stronger than her on the invaded ship, she could kill every single crew member there and then conquer it!

So, when she had heard the characteristic 'ignition' of the arrays on those five ships resounding through that area, she immediately did what she had to do to achieve that goal.

After witnessing Angela's suspicious behavior, those aboard that Brown family warship, as well as those in the surrounding area, had no opportunity to speak or even react when something shocking occurred!

BOOOOOOOOM!

In just one second after the previous sound, five powerful explosions took place on five different Brown family ships, specifically those further north in the defensive formation on that coast!

Such a thing had been so substantial that those five ships had been totally obliterated at the moment of the explosions!

Meanwhile, the water around dozens of meters from the focus of each of the explosions had evaporated so fast that only a curtain of white gas could be seen.

However, not even a single cry of pain left the area where such ships were. Only the thunderous sound of the explosions had reached the ears of the people in the surrounding area when every single crew member of those five ships had instantly turned to dust.

To make matters worse...

Right after noticing the explosions of those five ships, the people in the surroundings heard cannon sounds being fired from various directions!
