Damn, I recarneted As A Judge in Fantasy World Chapter 244 The Unyielding Waves"

A scream bordering on outrage echoed through the air. Then, surprisingly, the pirates began to move. But their numbers were not that large.

"Huh, why are there only this many troops?"

"Could it be that you ca all this way alone?"

I nodded toward the dock. At that mont, black smoke began rising from there. It seed a fire had broken out during the battle.

Nigel Bayliss's face turned blue, almost black. It seed that he had realized his ans of escape were gone.

"If this happens, it's sure to be a ss, right?"

"We must kill him no matter what. Where is the captain?"

"They are coming this way."

"Ugh! I don't have ti!"

Admiral Bayliss backed away in a huff and started running off sowhere. I quickly jumped over the platform, following him. But I couldn't continue the pursuit.

That was when I felt a hot sensation on my spine, followed by a trendous shock.

'What is this?'

Wheeeeeaaaa!

Suddenly, I looked back and saw sothing large flying toward . It seed a ballista, installed on a low rocky hill, was firing arrows.

In reality, it was just an arrow in the shape of a wooden pole, shot with extre force.

I reflexively swung Hector Punisher and activated a skill.

**Extre Choice Activation**

Woohoo!

"Select 'Defense.'"

"You will enter the Water Fist state."

Toohoo—000000!

I barely managed to hit the arrowhead, but the trendous force wasn't dissipated all at once.

If it had been just any other object, I would have been shocked to the point of paralysis. But I only took a few steps to the side, and there was no significant damage.

'Oh! It was a good thing I didn't just take it head-on. What's so strong about it?'

It was an expected result. Such large ballistas would have been installed to deal with sailing ships—to shoot at the warships approaching the hideout.

"No, but when I think about it, it's ridiculous. Are you saying that you would use sothing like that on a person?"

The laughter lasted only a mont.

I tried to chase Nigel Bayliss again. Anyway, there were no more people to deal with. The knights had all been beaten down, and the pirates didn't even think about approaching.

I guess I can't keep up with them when it cos to saving my own skin.

"Isn't that a monster! Call the Sea God right away!"

Admiral Bayliss was holding soone back, giving them a passionate speech.

With his black tricorn hat and blue coat, he looked like the captain of Billy Gut's pirate crew. He blew out a puff of cigarette smoke as he spoke.

"Don't worry. Even if the Sea God doesn't descend, that guy will be easy."

"Uh, how?"

"We'll do it the way we always do."

The pirate captain smiled wickedly and grabbed the handle next to him.

Then sothing amazing happened.

Bam!

The plank opened wide, and a large section of the platform disappeared in an instant. Naturally, my body had no choice but to fall.

"Hahahaha! So there was a trap like that. As expected from Captain Branto!"

"This level of preparation is basic."

The sound of Admiral Bayliss's hearty laughter and the pirate captain's smug voice could be heard.

I folded my arms and shook my head.

"This is so typical."

It was probably about a few dozen ters high, but it didn't seem like I would fall to my death. The seawater was waiting at the end of the trap.

But I had no intention of getting lost in there.

Quach-ing!

As I smashed the wall with Hector Punisher, my falling body stopped. The tip of the spear dug into the rock, gaining strength.

I quickly moved my feet in that state, spinning around and repeatedly kicking the wall. I was trying to rise using centrifugal and ground force.

Then, when I reached a place with a gentle slope, I shouted, "Cha-ha-ha!"

I jumped into the air. The surprised faces of Admiral Bayliss and the pirate captain ca into view.

"Good expression! Look here. Click!"

Phaaaak!

Hector Punisher landed a direct hit on Admiral Bayliss's forehead.

There was a loud thud, and I saw his eyes roll back.

'I'll be unconscious for a while, but I won't die.'

Because I had broken the pot so often, I had beco sowhat able to control it now.

Of course, I didn't use any amazing techniques like in movies or martial arts novels.

Anyway, the result was the sa.

Then, it was done.

"Monster, monster!"

A man standing next to Admiral Bayliss, his empty left arm trembling, shouted.

Judging by the hook instead of his hand, he seed to be a pirate who had been around for a long ti.

"What is this, Captain Hook?"

"How did you know my nickna?"

"What a naming sense. Tsk!"

I clicked my tongue and lifted Hector Punisher.

But it was at that very mont that Captain Hook shouted proudly with both arms spread wide.

"Sleep tight!"

I stopped attacking, wondering if they had prepared sothing.

Of course, it wasn't like we were completely defenseless. With Hector Punisher slung over my shoulder, I could respond almost instantly.

"What is it?"

"I already expected the imperial punitive force to co."

"And yet the security is like this?"

"I just didn't know you were disguised as a prisoner."

"Oh? You know how to infiltrate?"

In fact, most pirate captains were nothing more than ruthless n. They led their subordinates with swagger and charisma. Their power was obvious.

Still, this guy was pretty smart. He had figured out how we had gotten in, even though there had been no other information.

"Haha! You can guess just by looking at the commotion at the dock. But that's not the important part."

"Then what is it?"

"We have a solution for this day."

"No, what is that?"

"That's right!"

"You're taking too long. Just lie down."

"Sun..."

Snap!

Captain Hook rolled his eyes and passed out without finishing his sentence.

Of course, I was willing to listen to everything. I was a bit curious about what he was going to say.

But it dragged on too long. It was as if they were waiting for reinforcents to arrive.

"I can't fall for such a cheap trick. It'll ruin my reputation."

I stood on the high pedestal and looked up at the stone mountain. Apart from Admiral Bayliss's escorts, there didn't seem to be anyone that strong.

Most people had probably run to check the commotion at the dock.

Then all that was left were the large ballistas installed to defend the hideout.

"The attack power was greatly reduced while increasing the defense power, but this is enough to deal with those guys."

I took a few running steps and threw Hector Punisher in a dynamic motion.

Tadadot! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong!

A warhamr that flew while spinning around.

Just then, I heard a gasp of air near the ballista that was aiming at .

"Hey, what is that?"

"It's flying so accurately? I shouldn't dodge it…"

Even though the rock mountain was only about ten ters high, the seat I was standing on was also quite high.

So I heard a voice, and thinking about it, was it shot from that close?

"They were incredibly ignorant."

Of course, it wasn't for to be destroying such siege weapons with a hamr.

Kwaaang―!

"Eww!"

"The support beam is broken!"

Hector Punisher flew several dozen ters and shattered a wooden pillar. With one side tilted, the pirates could no longer fire their ballistae.

"What about the other side?"

"Loading!"

"Get there quickly…"

The pirates' urgent voices were heard.

But things didn't always go as planned.

I was going to get rid of them all.

'Recall.'

Wheaaaaaaak! Chin!

I brought back Hector Punisher and started doing dynamic moves again.

Tadadot! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! Hoong! Ttaaung!

"Eww!"

"What, it's falling apart!"

Another ballista, once fully loaded, beca useless in an instant.

After repeating this several tis, the siege weapons of Billygut's hideout fell completely silent.

I looked down at the slave market and shouted:

"If you surrender, I will spare your lives!"

Of course, I really ant it.

Because I had no intention of killing pirates. If I took them to Perias and put them on trial, they would be useful as free labor in the labor camp.

It's not my property, but it's beneficial to the country.

The profits generated there would be used for taxes.

But then, suddenly, soone shouted in an evil voice.

"Don't lie! Do you think I would listen to the words of a bastard from the Empire!"

Then, ominous sounds erupted from here and there.

It seed as if they had gained courage from that guy's outburst.

The pirate sneered at Abel. "You're just talking nonsense when you're going to kill anyway. As expected from a gentleman from the empire."

"Kekekeke! You don't know why there's a skull on the pirate ship flag? We're already no better than moving while dead!"

Soon, pirates began to rush towards the upper chamber. Abel shook his head slightly, letting out a short sigh.

"I can't help it."

Honestly, Abel never thought he could subdue these guys with words alone. After all, wasn't this a place where only people hopeless in life gathered?

Moreover, they seed to know full well that they would be serving a long prison sentence if captured.

Well, how many sins had they committed so far? It might actually be better for them to die cleanly.

"Hey, that's annoying," Abel muttered, flexing his fingers.

No matter what, it was obvious—he had to move his body himself.
