Chapter 792 - Saviour! Saviour! Saviour!
After torturing Whitebeard's sanity with the statement from the movie 'The Princess Bride', Landon let the poor man's nerves rest.
Truthfully, he just wanted to use one of his best movie lines of all time.
It had almost felt so cool to him when he was back on earth.
[My name is Inigo Montoya.
You killed my father, prepare to die.]
He would be a fool if he never tried it out once, right?
Landon quickly captured Whitebeard and tied him up real tight before letting him hop down towards the deck.
This was the prison's newest member, so why should he kill him?
After all, he was a man of his word too.
As for the pirate organization, he would deal with that whenever he decided to head towards the continent of Morgany, since their base was there.
But for the islands that they had taken over, he wouldn't allow them to keep these islands if they followed the law.
Just like the Caribbean islands and other islands back on earth, he didn't see anything wrong with them settling there and creating their own empires too.
But the problem with pirates was that they were more lawless and evil than even the nobles.
They had kidnapped, killed and r.a.p.ed many travellers.
And, they also took in rogue assignments from nobles too.
.
These pirates attributed to why many innocent people have gone missing on the seas... Aside from the storms and sea creatures.
They kidnapped people from various empires and sent them to the islands.
Some islands were used to train men who would row the sh.i.p.s, while others were used as an auction place where pirate Captains could buy more slaves and turn them into crew members.
With time, these slaves would get twisted and also enjoy the lawless pirate life.
That said, some territories within the islands were also awarded to the top pirates in the organization.
That is, some pirates own land or territories on the islands.
And at times, many pirate leaders can one properly within the same island.
As for their base in the Morgany Continent, it was there mostly for political reasons, as well as to get a good stronghold.
Many nobles gave water-based assignments to these pirates.
If they had information that their nemesis was going to set sail, they would send these pirates to deal with the person on the water.
Even merchants did so when they knew that their competitors brought in new goods.
This pirate organization was indeed a force to be reckoned with.
But so what?
He was still going to take Whitebeard in, even if his brother was the organization leader.

.
Landon tied up his hands and feet, letting him hop around like a bunny.
Whitebeard was so mad that he almost passed out.
When had he ever been treated like this?
How could a dignified pirate like himself be made to move in this way?
If his enemies saw him, wouldn't his prestige as a fierce pirate fall?
Whitebeard grumpily hopped his way to the deck.
But all his complaints were stuck in his throat the moment he saw the deck that was filled with countless dead people.
He did this?
Whitebeard felt like it was too inconceivable!
Looking around, he also saw a few others that were tied up as well
But they appeared to be injured?
He had previously held a small glimpse of hope in his heart that his men would be able to push through this dilemma.
But now, he truly realized how useless they were.
Waste!
What was the point of spending money on them if they could be even right properly?
He sent them to the island meant for teaching the pirate's sword fighting.
But after years of classes and years of putting their skills to the test, they still couldn't even beat one man?
Wasn't this the equivalent of saying that they were trash?
More still, they indirectly slapped his face since he was the one who took their trashy existence in.
As expected, he could only depend on his brother to save him.
.
The moment they arrived on the deck, Lucia, her brothers and their men also finished up their battle victoriously.
They hurriedly made their way towards the ship that had their saviour.
"Saviour!
Saviour!
Are you alright?"
"Do you need something to eat?"
"Ate you injured?"
Everyone was fussing about his safety while staring at his black mask curiously.
Lucia bit her lips nervously and stepped forward.
"Erm... Saviour, may we see your face?
We mean no disrespect saviour."
Landon looked at their eagerness and sighed before taking off his black ninja mask.
(O∆O)
Everyone looked anxiously.
To them, it seems like it was all in slow-motion.
And the moment Landon's face was revealed, their expressions turned explosive.
"Glory be to the Gods of our land!
It really is him!
His eyes, nose and everything else is the same."
"The heavens truly want our people to survive.
We have found our saviour!"
"Saviour!"
"Saviour!"
Landon: (-_-)
.
The people jumped and jubilated merrily.
Their excitement was so great that it could set out invisible fireworks in the air.
Some cried, others kowtowed, while some wanted to rub their hands on Landon's face to get blessings from him.
Hahahahhahahaha!
After travelling for months, losing some of their people and surviving through these uncharted waters that none of their people had ever travelled... They had ultimately succeeded.
They had escaped slavery, r.a.p.e, murder, storms, and even terrible sea creatures that could swallow their ship whole.
It was truly a miracle that they could make it this far with their first voyage towards their saviour.
Tears filled their eyes as they assured their comrades who died that they had finally made it.
Landon on the other hand was getting a little worried and uncomfortable with this saviour thing.
He only saved them from these pirates, so wasn't their reaction a tad bit too much?
They were crying so much that he felt like he just saved an entire universe.
He didn't feel like what he did should amount to such worship.
Or was there something else that he was missing?
.
'System, are you really not going to explain further?'
'Host, why are you asking me?
They are right in front of you.
So leave this system alone.'
'_'
"Erm... Excuse me, but why do you all call me saviour?"
--silence--
"Ahhhh!!
The saviour can speak our language.
He is indeed our saviour!"
"When her highness Lucia said that she heard him speak Roma earlier on, I didn't fully believe it.
But listening to our saviour now has only left me in shock!"
"That's right!
Our saviour speaks Roma just like a native.
As expected of our saviour."
"The heavens knew what they were doing."
"Come guys, let's praise our saviour even more."
"Saviour!"
"Saviour!"
"Saviour!"
"Saviour!"
