The navy was currently 3000 in magnitude. Everyone they took in were elites of New Moon Ground’s wandering soul pet trainers. They’re all spirit emperors.
Of course, the three thousand new moon navy’ strength will still be weaker than Xu Kuang’s elites, but defeating some cowardly pirates is something they’re adequate for.
Pirates are something individuals can’t defeat.
Ocean islands are plentiful. Their targets are usually as large as a city. They instantly retreat after pillaging a city. If they were smart pirates, they would have a massive amount of resources.
……
Lift the sails!
Three thousand new moon navys with thirty boats started heading towards the island near the ocean cloud beast.
Thirty boats with all silver moon colors. Though they weren’t exactly grandiose yet, they were already starting to show a stern and powerful aura!
The waves broke in front of them. Every boat was going at a water type pseudo dominator rank speed. With new moon ground’s current supply of soul cores and soul crystals, to show the power of their new navy and to let outer realm people more clearly know how bountiful New Moon Ground was, Liu Binglan didn’t hold back at all with resources. Especially in the creation of these thirty boats, they created all dominator rank level ships. Though they still weren’t as powerful as the general ship that Xu Kuang made, they weren’t too far off.
“Chu Mu, we have to gather a large amount of seafaring people from outside. There are ultimately a limited amount of powerful people in Wind Rain City.” Sang Ying said to Chu mu.
“Tell me about your plans for after this.” Chu Mu said.
Chu Mu didn’t know much about development. The only thing he could do was to invest as much as he could. However, he wanted to get a sense of just how powerful new moon navy could get.
“Okay. With female supreme and elder pang’s large investment, our navy can reach Wupan Navy’s ninth regiment number five army. This strength is still a good distance away from Xu Kuang’s navy mainly because of the difference in people, navigators, boat makers, repairmen, scouts, and support teams….. These are all not built out.” Sang Ying said.
“If they’re completely built out, what rank can we reach?” Chu Mu asked.
“If we can completely get all those, we can become pretty much the best in this entire sea region. We’ll be stronger than the ninth regiment fourth navy of Wupan Navy.
“How much resources do we need to do that?” Chu Mu knew clearly that if he handled the resource problem, most problems would be solved.
If they didn’t have the right people for it, they could spend money to take people from other regions. Having now opened up the entire New Moon Ground, they could recruit people from anywhere.
“At least 15000 xuan. This past year, female supreme and elder pang already put in a considerable amount. Now that we have some sort of magnitude, though we can’t go deep into places like demon burial mound, taking some bounties should be no problem.” Sang Ying said.
When a navy was first made, accepting bounties was a must. One, they could get used to the ocean realm nearby, but they could also get hefty sums. Third, they could establish their name and fame in the region. Most importantly, bounties are a good way of training since fighting was unavoidable. This could slowly raise the power of the navy.
“Hehe, this bounty with the pirates will already be 9000 xuan, solving most of the problem.” Chao Lengchuan laughed.
The other 6000 xuan shouldn't be too hard for the palaces to pay for. As more and more people enter the sacred realms, the palace is getting more and more resources every month.
"What’s the ocean island’s magnitude for this bounty?” Chu mu asked.
Able to be worth 9000 xuan, they definitely weren’t your average pirates.
“I heard that people of Guan Hai City say that they’ve plagued their coast for nearly a hundred years. Details can be gotten from the navy castles. We don’t have to fight immediately. Lets go to Guanhai City and get the bounty first. Then, we can spread our name and then defeat them. This will be more beneficial for our name.” Sang Ying said.
Chu Mu nodded. He wasn’t in a hurry, so he might as well spend some time wandering the seas.
Chu Mu hasn’t been in the ocean for long. Water type soul pets were something Chu Mu always missed.
……
Dominator rank ships’ speeds were incredibly quick. The insurmountable barrier of the ocean to dark sky ocean world was crossed in only a two month long voyage.
In reality, Wupan Continent was connected to Zhengming Continent. If one went east from southern forbidden realm and circumvented an inlet of Dark Sky Ocean World, they could enter right into Wupan Continent.
However, no one walked that way because the southern forbidden realm’s name was not only widespread in New Moon Ground, but its name was infamous throughout Wupan Continent too.
Chu Mu didn’t go through southern forbidden realm straight to Wupan Continent because there definitely wasn’t a single map for that, but also it wasn’t necessarily closer from that direction. Southern forbidden realm is against Xiangrong City of New Moon Ground. However, it connected deep into Wupan Continent’s borders. On one hand it was a long trip, but also there were soul pet empires and dynasties blocking the way. He would need over a year to get through it all.
The coast was right before them. Looking around, they saw white waves, blue seagulls, a brilliant gold beach, and grey fishing boats that painted a beautiful scene for the people tired of two months on water!
“Finally here. However, we’re a little bit off in our navigation. Whatever, it doesn’t matter too much, we’re almost at Guanhai City.” Sang Ying said.
They followed the coast for a bit. Possibly because of the speed of boats, only when they neared Guanhai City did the patrolling Wupan navy find the thirty silver and dignified battleships.
“There are three Wupan navy army boats ahead heading towards us.” The scout standing at the top of the mast said to Sang Ying.
“Don’t worry, we told them we’re coming already. Slow down a little in case they can’t catch up.” Sang Ying said.
One had to give notice before entering foreign waters or else one would be dealt with as intruders.
After the thirty new moon navy battleships slowed down, the three wupan navy boats slowly neared. However, they could tell that the Wupan Navy were very cautious.
“May we dare ask what faction your navy is from? Do you have a pass to our territory? If not, you may have made a mistake in navigating. This is Guanhai Ocean Grounds.” Far away, a loud mental voice came from one of the boats.
New Moon Navy was two or three times larger than the boats that arrived. Floating on the ocean, they were like a group of burly men around three kids. Their aura alone was enough to suppress them.
“Haha, they’re so polite. Last time we came, they yelled at us directly as if this region was their backyard. Things really are different with a large navy.” A young leader under Sang Ying’s wing laughed out loud.
This leader was a young expert of New Moon Ground called Zeng Bangyang. He’s already pseudo dominator rank. It’s rare for him to have such strength at such a young age, so he’s one of Sang Ying’s star leaders.
Bang Yang had followed Yuan Sui in Windy Rain City earlier. A year ago, when Sang Ying brought them through Dark Sky Ocean and arrived here, the Wupan Navy were all arrogant as if they were dealing with fishing boats. Yet, in no time, these navies had to be excessively polite to them. Power truly brings respect.
“We’re new moon navy. We spoke with your Navy General already. We’re landing at Guanhai City Harbor. Can you lead the way?” Sang Ying replied to the three boats with his mental voice.
……
On the Wupan boats, the ocean boat leaders wearing caps were all confused.
“New Moon Navy, what faction is that? Have you heard of it?” Boat leader Zhen Ge asked the members aside them.
“It’s New Moon Gorund, the poor piece of land on the other side of Dark Sky Ocean. They came once last time to get a pass but I heard last time their boats were average at best.” The vice captain replied.
“Average at best? Does this look average to you? Every ship of theirs is dominator rank. If they didn’t slow down on purpose, we couldn’t even catch up to them. And look at their main boat, it’s about the same level as a navy commander level boat!” The captain Zhen Ge said.
“This…. I don’t know either.” The vice no longer dared to speak.
“Speaking of which, isn’t New Moon Ground a barren land? How did they create such a strong navy? Such a magnitude isn’t any weaker than some of our navies!” Vice captain said.
“Who knows. But, if they have a pass let’s lead the way.”
“Captain, us Wupan Navy leading the way for them, is that really the best?”
“Really the best? Can’t you see they’re all dominator rank? They might be an important guest of our navy general!” Captain Zhen said.
……
Facing such a strong navy, the arrogant patrolling navy had to lower their heads and dutifully lead the way ahead.
There were many boats on the coastline: Fishing boats, private boats, merchant ships, all of whom only make way for the patrolling ships. However, this time, they not only had to make way, they had to hide far away just to dodge the New Moon Navy’s massive waves.
No matter what boat, when they saw the powerful and imposing new Moon Navy drive past, they would be filled with surprise and confusion.
What faction’s navy were they? Why have they never seen the crescent marked flag?
