Ocean Lords: Start Harvesting Double from Dice Rolls

It really is our own people...

But there always seems to be something not quite right...

"If you don't want to unite forces, then quickly withdraw from this sea region. After we capture Ijima Island, there will be fewer people to share the living copper ore."

"Can't be bothered to argue with you, I'm off to find other brothers to join forces."

Fang Yu pretended to be impatient and shook his head, preparing to leave.

Upon hearing Fang Yu's words, the pirate leader didn't have time to think much, and quickly smiled awkwardly as he ordered his pirate fleet to join forces with the "pirate ships" behind Fang Yu.

"Brother, don't take offense, it's always better to be careful when we're out and about."

"However, since the Alliance issued the command, we're naturally going to comply. There's money to be made together, and once we finish this job, we can completely retire."

The pirate leader grinned broadly, ultimately influenced by the constant news of certain pirates managing to hijack living copper ore and selling it off, making tens of thousands of Silver Coins, which was spreading wildly among the pirates.

Who doesn't harbor a little hope?

Although the sea region around Ijima Island is now extremely dangerous, with the presence of the Purification Army, it's very challenging for everyone to hijack living copper ore from the sea area of Ijima Island.

But uniting forces according to Fang Yu's method might lead to some actual gain.

It's ultimately driven by profit.

Many people, driven by greed, rush in without thinking too much.

At this moment, this was the state of the pirate leader.

The temptation of living copper ore was so great that the pirate leader immediately merged his pirate fleet with Fang Yu's fleet.

As a result, Fang Yu's army configuration jumped from the original 420 ships to about 650 ships.

Although the actual combat power of the additional two hundred plus pirate ships is questionable, each ship is an asset in battle.

Even if the additional two hundred ships are lacking in strength, it's still a significant enhancement.

All the forces that previously followed Fang Yu, and the Blue Star Captains, were astounded.

This... actually worked?!

Spouting nonsense, and ended up incorporating a pirate fleet?

...

However, what followed allowed everyone to gradually realize... what it means to use small efforts to achieve great results.

As long as you're willing to make bold promises, there's nothing you can't accomplish...

"Hey buddy, we're about to hijack the living copper ore together, want to join?"

"Not joining? Are you sure you want to miss out on changing your future?"

"That's living copper ore, right in front of us, the amount on Ijima Island doesn't need to be said, right?"

"Probably every ship can earn tens of thousands of Silver Coins, isn't our income as leaders not just casually several tens of thousands of Silver Coins?"

Fang Yu's words were filled with living copper ore, Silver Coins, claiming it's incredibly simple.

Seizing Ijima Island seemed absurdly easy from Fang Yu's mouth.

Sometimes, when the momentum and state are just right, a certain atmosphere is created, making everyone unwittingly believe in Fang Yu.

Under Fang Yu's continuous persuasion, pirate leaders inexplicably joined Fang Yu's forces, enlarging Fang Yu's military strength.

The configuration of 650 ships once again soared, directly reaching a configuration of 3000 ships.

6 or 7 pirate fleets believed Fang Yu's claims that hijacking living copper ore was simple and joined Fang Yu's fleet.

Some were skeptical, and the more thoughtful ones saw Fang Yu's large fleet and the flags of the Pirate Alliance, and also ended up muddled in with the crowd.

That's right...

So many pirate ships combined together wouldn't fear encountering a lone small purification squad.

Instead of leaving this region, full of opportunities and temptation, why not join the bunch, take the risk, and have a go?

The herd mentality works on pirate leaders just the same.

In no time, Fang Yu's fleet size grew to a bewildering state for the Duorong Federation's regular army.

Wait... what?!

Fang Yu, this could actually...?

Are we really going to do something big?

How is this even possible?

Everyone was thoroughly impressed with Fang Yu.

His skill in embellishing was superb.

The ability to plan and arrange was undeniable.

Even the most clueless person by now realized that Fang Yu's earlier plan for everyone to disguise as pirate ships had already envisioned this situation.

Entrapping pirates and utilizing pirate forces was also part of Fang Yu's plan.

And now...

All around the regular army were a rambunctious bunch of unruly pirates establishing camaraderie with everyone.

Pirates?

The regular army used to despise and disdain pirates.

But at this moment...

How sweet!

More than 2000 pirate ships gleefully tagging along, acting as minions.

In such a situation, who would still dislike pirates?

"Get some fruit wine for my brothers! This is what I... snatched from the West Qinghai Sea Region, damn, it's good! Come!"

The Blue Star Captains, filled with mischievousness, offered the fruit wine to the pirates.

It's not that everyone suddenly became merry.

It's because everyone was happy!

Sailing the sea for so many grueling days, enduring the harsh weather conditions.

Now, with Fang Yu's plan gradually unfolding before everyone, they all began to see that the moment to reap the fruits of this expedition was approaching.

With a consolidation of over 3000 ships, Fang Yu's forces reached an unprecedented state of power.

The Fang Yu Captain (Lieutenant) likely would soon begin to reel it all in and reveal the fangs of this expedition...

Fangs!
