NOVEL SIMPLE V3 Ch 70. Black cat ops
When we were a couple of hours away from the colony, I ordered Aotsuki to slow down.
I had to move the entire pirates’ force to Aotsuki.
Emmanuel was transferred there too, while Yuriko and Patricia were picked up by me.
I summoned the gear, and carried the girls towards the colony at full speed, while Aotsuki is slowly moving.
A couple of girls are harder to spot than two 100+ meters warships.
We will cause some havoc, before the enemy even has a chance to set sail.
Our incursion was successful, and nobody spotted our approach.
We sneaked our way through a town, and reached the colony’s port.
“Jackpot!” Patricia started drooling at the sight of battleships.
There were 6 battleships, and all of them were docked.
“Patricia, how good are you in combat?”
“Better than you are.” (P)
“Okay… Listen, if each of us takes on two of the ships, we might capture them before the true fun begins.” She thought this through for a minute, before approving my idea with a nod.
“Then what? We may capture the ships but we will then need to hold back the enemy soldiers. We don’t have enough shields to keep them busy.” (Y)
“As old-fashioned as ever. They would shoot the shields as easily, as you win against Emmanuel.” Yuriko glanced away in embarrassment.
“Let me guess, you’re going to do something impossible?” Patricia glared at me with suspicion.
“You know me well~.” The girl facepalmed.
We waited for a bit, to make sure we do everything at a perfect time. When a patrol passed by the ships, we moved out.
Yuriko sneaked in the closest two ships, Patricia took the middle ones, and I, as the sneakiest one, took the furthest group.
[Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky cat.]
“What’s that?” A guard heard me right after I crawled by him.
‘You saw nothing…’
‘Cut’
I shook the blood off the blade, and continued crawling.
[Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky cat…]
I sneaked to the boarding ramp of the first ship.
When I climbed the ship, I saw that it was unguarded. I made my way to the ladder, and climbed down throughout the ship. The entire ship was empty. The only guard it had was already biting the dust.
[Sneaky, sneaky, sneeeaky cat…]
I crossed the space between the two ships, and was right below the second ship’s ramp.
“Who’s there?” The two guards hurried to attack me.
‘Slash’
‘Pierce’
In a single leap I cleared the entrance.
[Sneeeaky cat, I’m a sneeeaky cat…]
I safely boarded the ship, and started searching.
The guards on the ship never saw me coming.
After I cleared the upper deck, I started searching below.
Once again, the ship was empty inside. Empty, in the meaning that it had no people.
All of the necessary supplies are there. The guns are there too.
Just come and man them.
‘WUUUUUUU!!!’
While I was celebrating my clean job, I heard a horn. A certain someone raised the alarm.
By the time I ran up to the upper deck, the purple coats were already flooding in the harbor.
It was the time to shine.
BANG BANG BANG
Bu-bu-bu-bu-bum
I was mowing down the hordes of infantry. An entire 20 soldiers were killed before the enemy stopped rushing in like idiots, and sieged us.
‘Ping-ping’
‘Ping’
BANG BANG BANG
While we (I) were keeping the enemy away, Aotsuki finally approached close enough to open fire.
I made her hold fire until she is close enough. The civilian casualties will not be a good thing. We will have to capture this place, and civilian unrest will be a problem.
When the purple coats were suppressed by gunfire, I saw how the certain woman and girl rushed at them with their swords.
“JUST DON’T GET HURT! HAVE FUN!” Patricia turned around on the move, and sent me an air kiss, before leaping into a crowd of purple coats.
BOOM
I gritted my teeth after looking at her sword skills.
[To hell with them! I can do better!]
I frantically swung my katana, while applying the ‘Blade strengthening’.
‘Cries’
