That's right, whether it was the ship itself or the cannons, the difference between the Skeleton Island's ships and the Japanese's ships was too great!
It seemed normal for them to be sunk.
However, would the pirates give up because of this?
No!
Once the war started, there was no fear in the eyes of the Skull Island pirates!
"Abandon the ship, bring your weapons and swim over!”
With the captain's order, the remaining pirates did not hesitate at all and jumped into the sea!
The ship was slowly sinking, and many of the pirates who had just jumped in were even pulled into the sea by the whirlpool.
But who were they? They were pirates!
As a pirate, if he couldn't even swim well, what qualifications did he have to be called a pirate?
Therefore, at this moment, even the pirates who were sucked into the whirlpool did not panic at all. Instead, they used all their strength to swim quickly.
Perhaps there were still some people who could not escape from the vortex, but most of them still stubbornly escaped from the vortex.
After all, the Skull Island's ship was not big, and the whirlpool it created was not absolutely destructive!
These pirates did not hesitate at all and directly swam towards the Japanese ships!
This scene was naturally seen by many Japanese soldiers.
Seeing the fearless pirates swimming towards their ship, their faces were filled with shock!
These pirates, why are there people dragging mines around?
Were they not afraid of death?
Those were torpedoes. Once they were hit, everything in the surroundings would be destroyed in an instant. However, these pirates who did not care about their lives actually dared to drag the torpedoes in the sea!
Also, what did those pirates with chisels mean? Did they think that they could use chisels to cut through the bottom of the ironclad ship?
The Japanese sailors were curious, angry, and even afraid!
The pirates were not afraid of death. This allowed the Japanese sailors to truly understand what pirates were!
"Kill them! Fire! Fire! Kill those pirates! We can't let them get close to the battleship!”
The captain ordered loudly.
The Japanese soldiers fired their cannons and guns at the sea.
The rain of bullets from the secret manuals caused the entire sea to boil.
However, the pirates did not hesitate at all and continued to swim quickly...
Until the last person died!
……
The No. 5 warship was also one of the three ships of the Skeleton Island's First Fleet that launched a counterattack!
Compared to the seventh ship, the fifth ship was slightly larger.
As a result, his speed of turning around was a little slower. Therefore, he saw the sinking of the No. 7 warship with his own eyes!
At this moment, the captain of the No. 5 warship ordered the pirates to change the sails continuously. Relying on their weak steering ability, they swam in a snake shape!
The Japanese's artillery shells continued to land around Ship No. 5, and among them, the deck had already been hit twice!
Even the only cannon on the fifth ship had been destroyed!
However, because the No. 5 warship was moving in a serpentine manner, the Japanese could not hit them!
Even though the No. 5 warship had been hit and flames were rising from the deck.
However, Battleship No. 5 was still moving forward unsteadily.
They listened to the roar of the shells and watched their brothers on the No. 7 starship being bombarded!
At this moment, the pirates on the fifth ship only had one thought in their minds, and that was to kill their way over and avenge their brothers on the seventh ship!
Due to the fact that they had attacked the No. 7 warship earlier, the Japanese warship in front of the No. 5 warship had not adjusted to the best shooting position. Therefore, the firepower was not too fierce. Even though the No. 5 warship was swaying, it was constantly approaching the Japanese warship!
He was close!
He was even closer!
"Ascend!"
The captain of the No. 5 warship shouted loudly!
Because the Skeleton Island's ships were much smaller than the Japanese's ships, they were naturally much shorter. It was impossible for them to engage in a normal boarding battle!
However, this did not hinder the attack of the fifth warship!
Who said that boarding battles had to be done?
Could it be that cutting the mainsail and climbing over it was not enough?
As long as they could climb onto the Japanese ship, they would be able to do anything!
The pirates climbed onto the mainsail one after another, while the four pirates held sharp axes in their hands, waiting for an opportunity!
The Japanese were not fools. When they saw the pirates charging at them, they would naturally dodge. Therefore, even if they wanted to cut off the main sail to attack, they needed a good opportunity!
However, because of the Japanese's carelessness, they did not immediately challenge the position and retreat. They even stopped the ship and attacked calmly.
At this moment, it was impossible to react immediately!
The ship couldn't reach its maximum speed right from the start. Moreover, it had to adjust its position to prevent colliding with the other two ships.
The devils were arrogant. They thought that the pirates 'ships would not have a chance to get close to them.
It was true that under normal circumstances, it was difficult for pirates to get close to ships.
However, the fifth warship was approaching!
Once he got close, he would think about adjusting and dodging. How could he have such a fast reaction time?
"Chop!"
Finally, the time had come. The four pirates brandished the sharp axes in their hands and cut the mainsail as fast as they could!
Because he had deliberately adjusted his position when he slashed, the main sail also fell directly toward the Japanese ship.
"Kill!"
The pirates roared and rushed up the mainsail.
He didn't care that his comrades were being shot by the Japanese or that he had accidentally fallen into the water!
There was not much time left for them. They had bet everything on the mainsail to engage the enemy. However, in reality, the mainsail was only leaning against the Japanese warship. It could leave at any time due to the movement of the Japanese warship.
Once they left, the pirates would lose all chances to board the ship.
At the same time, they lost all the opportunities to fight the Japanese!
At this moment, the No. 5 warship had already become a piece of wood for crossbows. Coupled with the collision with the Japanese warships, it had already begun to sink slowly.
There was not much time left for the pirates.
