SSS SKILL: DUPLICATE

Chapter 29: Navy

Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om

A navy is sailing in a foggy sea. It's been three years since the Baynard kingdom opened sea trade. The fog is starting to clear.

There are ten ships sailing. The flags of the ships are waving. The flag is white with a blue dragon mark. The sail attached to the mast is pushed by wind to the eastern ocean. On the biggest ship, the captain is talking to his vice captain. The captain is quite dark and young, but there is sharpness in his eyes. His hair is black and has ponytails. He has a necklace with a wooden dragon. He is wearing a blue and white navy admiral uniform. His dark skin is a result of frequent exposure to the sun when he is in the sea. His face is serious while looking ahead.

"Follow the plan and don't let any enemy ship run away. We will let the incoming scourge be buried in our ocean!" said Wilder, the admiral of the Navy of the Baynard kingdom.

The fog cleared, and a beautiful blue ocean appeared. A magic bird is flying in the air, and some magic fish are seen jumping. Two suns above the sky are sending rays of sunlight into the ocean. In the distance, twenty ships are coming toward the navy of Baynard. The navy saw them first, using a telescope. The captan ship gave a signal to the other group of hidden navies to position and encircle the enemy. The hidden navy read the order using a telescope and started arranging their formation.

The enemy saw the navy of Baynard. A man ran to the captain of the fleet and told him the news.

The captain has white hair. He has the eyes of a killer. Half of his face is covered with a mask. All of them have masks. The captain has the air of a man who has a lot of blood in his hand. His subordinates are a little afraid of him. He asks the crew how many ships the navy has.

"I didn't as-"

Pakkk! The captain did not wait for the sentence to finish and slapped the crew.

"Waste!" Rigas, the captain, went out of the cabin. He applied aura to his feet and went to the observation platform on the mast. He saw the ten approaching ships of the navy. He observed the surroundings to see if there is an ambush, but found nothing. He went down and gave orders.

"There is no ambush, and I don't feel aura users or magicians under the sea. Maintain formation for concentrated attack. Stay forward and shoot the enemy when they reach the crossbow range! We must destroy that navy in a short time."

"Yes, captain!" The crew prepared themselves for the coming fight. The flag bearer signals the order of the captain to other ships.

Rigas stayed on the hull and is ready to respond to any changes. Rigas always led the ships of Duke Wesly during sea trade and had many battle experiences against pirates. Duke Wesly tried a few times to destroy the new city in Death Land using pirates, but he failed. This time, he will use a powerful fleet. Rigas' mission is death and chaos in the Purple City, the new city built on the poison-free death land, now called Purple Land.

Both fleets are within firing range. There is a three hundred-meter distance between them. Big crossbows are in front of each ship. In each crossbow is a big magic arrow. Soldiers aim at each other.

"Attack!!!"

"Attack!!!"

Both captains commanded the attack.

TWANNG! TWANNG! TWANNG!

Big arrows covered with fire element are flying toward each other.

In the navy, aura masters release their aura and slash aura blades at incoming big arrows that will likely hit the ship.

Aura blades are flying toward the arrows.

WATER PILLAR

FIREBALL

WATER BOMB

WIND BOMB

AURA BLADES

Bang! Bang! Bang! Many arrows that had the likelihood of hitting the ship were destroyed. The other one that was stopped by a water magician had deviated but still hit a little part of the hull.

Boom! Smoke started rising from the ship. Other magic arrows fell into the water and exploded.

Boom! Boom! Boom! High splashes of water appear quite a distance from ships.

"Spread! Move to the side!" ordered Wilder. The flag bearer gave the signal.

On the enemy's side, the situation is almost the same.

WATER PILLAR

AURA BLADE

ICE CONE

WIND BLADE

FIRE BLADE

Magic skills and martial skills are flying and blocking the incoming arrows. Arrows exploded, and high splashes of water appeared when magic arrows fell on water.

The enemy ship saw the movement of the navy and thought they were retreating. They rejoice and cheer.

"Hmp! Fledgeling! They probably thought we are as weak as pirates! Catch up with them! Order water magicians to attack first and delay their escape! We must not let them go! Our mission must remain a secret!" Rigas feels confident that he can carry out his mission if the navy is this weak. He did not doubt their retreat because he saw the smoke from a ship. They are already at a disadvantage in the first confrontation, so it is natural for a navy commander to order a retreat. Unbeknownst to them, there is a danger lurking beneath them.

DRAGON PILLAR

BOOM! Six ships exploded in their middle. Six water magicians simultaneously attacked the enemy's ships. Woods and crews are blown away. In the middle of the ship is a rotating water pillar. The head of the pillar turns into a dragon and begins wreaking havoc on the ship. The five ships disrupted the formation, and many ships could not advance. In the middle of the formation is the captain ship, and its middle is also blown away. A water dragon is in the middle, and at the top of its head is a handsome young man clad in aura. He is wearing white and blue armor with a blue dragon mark on his left chest. His name is Feiyu.
