Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
Facing the sudden inquiries of other pirates, the Bell and Mug pirates felt prideful and naturally bragged aloud with saliva splashing everywhere.
They pronounced, “this be our ship’s newest crew head, originating from the mysterious east, Seaman Yan. Vicious yet powerful, not only did he lead a bunch of sickly and aging pirates to chase away hundreds of Spanish pigs, he even challenged the voodoo cult’s decaying undead alone and slayed it. He be the embodiment of impressive.”
The valiantness of the Spanish troops was witnessed by the pirates before, where most of them had even killed several Spanish troops. Thus, they felt that Sheyan’s leading and managing wasn’t that impressive. However, what amazed them was him challenging the voodoo cult decaying undead alone; such bravery and might left their mouths and eyes wide in awe.
There was a story about the three kingdoms – the Cao army had defeated Liu Bei so overwhelmingly that even his sons and wives were in danger, and Zhao Yun his general bravely rescued them. Everyone remembered that battle for Zhao Yun’s heroism instead of the Cao army’s impressive victory. This was exactly like that story. Everyone loved hearing of a single hero’s achievements, but nobody would put much attention on a team’s success.
Furthermore, Sheyan’s opponent was a decaying undead! A horrifying gruesome beast made by the Voodoo cult! In the hearts of these pirates, the voodoo cult was the number one mysterious and fearsome unknown. More crucially, the spanish merchant Fernandez controlled not one but a whole 3 decaying undead!
Apart from the ‘Chewed Ear’ Sheyan eliminated, there was the other decaying undeads, ‘Chewed Finger’ and ‘Corrupted Nose’. The twin horrors had caused the pirates to suffer a great deal, naturally leaving a deep impression in their hearts.
The veteran pirates further noticed the Bell and Mug pirates employing the same phrase unanimously – ‘Solo challenge and slaying’ and not ‘Solo challenge and defeat’. This meant that they were not only bragging but speaking the truth. Because the word ‘defeat’ could mean that the enemy could’ve escaped, leaving nothing behind. On the contrary, the word ‘slaying’ meant the evidence of a corpse in battle.
This indicated that regardless how exaggerated the Bell and Mug pirates may be, the underlying truth tallied up!
Shortly, some pirates brought their own wine pouches to give a toast to Sheyan. These pirates all came in respect as some of that had lost their friends or family to the decaying undead during the day’s assault.
According to the rumours of the Voodoo cult, a person’s soul would be cursed and forever be in suffering, if they died at the hands of a decaying undead. Only a brave warrior who has slayed a decaying undead can free them, thus they personally invited Sheyan to give blessings to their deceased friends.
Moreover, this Seaman Yan from the east was extremely forthright; drinking and chatting loudly, which was totally misaligned with rumours of him being cruel. In actual fact, Sheyan had realized drinking with these pirates could raise his reputation score. The range of increase from each pirate could reach from 10 – 30 points. Even raising by 10 points was pretty good, regrettably the raising rate was also linked to the charm level, if not, Sheyan could have possibly raised a thousand points from this drinking session.
Though that was the case, he raised a total of 300 points in reputation, thereby breaking through to 524/3000 points.
Apart from that, Sheyan received a surprising bonus in the form of wine pouches gifted by those pirates. Those wine pouches contained a variety of rum. Coincidentally, some contained the kinds related to his milestone, ‘Intoxicated man’ – Lambs potato rum and the Cockspum rum.
Thus, Sheyan successfully upgraded the milestone, ‘drunkard’, to the milestone ‘intoxicated man. Of which, its attributes respectively increased. Consecutively, the nightmare imprint transmitted notifications.
[ You completed a advancement in milestone to intoxicated man ]
[ You receive a title: Intoxicated man ]
[ Intoxicated man: Once you drink an alcoholic drink, your HP will decrease by 2%, damage rate will increase by 6%, duration of 60 minutes ]
[ At one time there can only be one title in effect, do you want to equip the title: Intoxicated man? ]
[ Initializing advanced milestone: Alcohol master ]

[ 1. France ‘Sharke Cognac brandy’
2.Britain ‘Chivas – Royal Salute Whisky’
3.Russia ‘Bereginka Vodka’
4.France ‘Crystal Champagne’
5.Spain Barca ‘Cava sparkling wine’
6.China “Maotai 1950 pulp liquor ]
[ Pointer: This milestone can be accomplished in any world ]
Sheyan speechlessly browsed through the names of those six alcohol.
Based on his general knowledge, he vaguely remember Maotai liquor from advertisements, but the term 1950 pulp liquor was a complete fuzzy. He hadn’t even heard of the other brands before. However, Sheyan could confirm one point – he would definitely have to spend a lot of money to purchase those alcohols. More critically, even if had the money, he may not be able to acquire it. Thus, he shook his head bitterly and tossed aside this list of requirements.
Presently, the alcohol brewing technology was lagging greatly, the rum hadn’t gone through distillation and its purity wasn’t high. Yet, Sheyan drank at least 1.5 litres of rum; he could feel his bladder bursting and needed to pee.
The sky was pitch-black, as Sheyan wobbled around the shore in search of a remote place to release his pee. After answering nature’s call he sighed in relief.
Abruptly, he started feeling thirsty from the alcohol, and craved for fresh coconut juice. As such, he wondered out in search. After walking nearly a whole kilometer, he finally found a cluster of coconut trees along the beach.
Although a coconut tree was difficult to climb, Sheyan had 8 points in agility and succeeded in scaling this challenging tree. As he prepared to throw down the coconut, he suddenly heard constrained moans of breath from a distance.
Although Sheyan wasn’t married, he was not a junior. Obviously, he was hearing soft moans produced by a woman not because she was in pain, but bluntly phrasing, because she was crying out in ecstasy.
The woman’s moan was flirtatiously charming to the core. Listening to it felt like several formless threads were wandering into his heart, attracting and binding him. After hearing it, Sheyan naturally felt his internal heat building up.
Undoubtedly, he reacted like an ordinary man would. Glancing down from the elevated angle of the coconut tree, he discovered a couple making love on the beach.
The female had fluffy blond hair, her two wheat colored slender legs was hanging off the male’s waist. The groaning sound from her mouth sounded mournful.
Unable to resist the urge to focus his gaze between her two longs, his mind subconsciously compared them to the long flirtatious legs of the female lead in “Transformers 3”. In the end, he decided that this leg was the winner.
Soon, the two reached a climatic period, as Sheyan quickly witnessed the male tremble violently for a while before the two finally calmed down. The female then washed her generous bare body in the sea, and brushed her long hair. Yet due to the darkness, Sheyan could not see her defining features. Still he managed to view her alluring silhouette.
The male casually wore his shirt and pulled his pants up confidently and easily. His actions were neat and tidy, giving one an impression of a lazy cheetah.
At this time, the male suddenly spun around, looking in his direction as he used a low warning tone to shout.
“Who?”
His tone was gloomy and full of magnetism, Sheyan shivered in his heart and adopted a guarding stance. Instead, the male did not look further but hurriedly wore his clothes.
“Mr Sparrow, I’m very sorry to disturb you at this time, but your father has orders. If he doesn’t see you in 10 minutes time, then poor Joshamee will be hanged on the mast for the next 3 days.”
At this point, Sheyan felt a little suffocated. Within the entire Caribbean sea world, there was only one person whose name was called Mr Sparrow! Below him, the male lazily replied.
“Don’t worry Joshamee, my father is an amiable and lenient old man, he’s only scaring you.”
Joshamee’s voice was filled with fear.
“Mr Sparrow I agree with your observation but I still have to say that the deadline he gave me is reaching. Please hurry up and return with me. The captain’s meeting is about to end. Even though Mr captain was kidding, but i know there’s some seriousness in his joke.
“Shut up Joshamee, at least let me kiss goodbye to my beloved Sally. Just thinking that her husband can enjoy such an honor every day, I’m turning mad with jealousy.”
Mr Sparrow’s words undoubtedly made this woman, Sally, extremely delighted. Her voice was slightly hoarse but carried an enticing bewitchment.
“Oh Jack, don’t bother about me, hurry up and return. There must be certain important matters your father has to consult with you.”
Sheyan’s squinted his eyes, his lips forming a curved smile.
“Never expected to encounter you in such a scenario, my main lead, Mr Jack Sparrow.”
