Chapter 84 - Chapter 84: Island of Giants

A few days later, on the boundless sea, a large ship sailed towards an island not far away.

Li Xiu held the compass of desire, looked up, and had a measure in his heart. This island was mostly the one.

The island was wide and could only be seen in full from a distance. The island was covered in frost and could only be seen as green and blue.

Because it was in the range of the extreme ice, the cold weather could be understood.

Luckily, Calypsos Island is located in a very cold place, not far from the "World's end," Li Xiu estimated that after he took the Extremely Cold Wailing Liquid, there would still be a long time before the Brethren Court, enough for him to go and take another divine object, to add a few more possibilities for killing the god.

Li Xiu put the compass in his pocket, held the steering wheel with both hands, and slowly turned the boat towards the bay of Calypsos Island.

According to Blackbeard, the giants on Calypsos Island are wise but ignorant and more like beasts, Li Xiu will not believe it, naturally, he needs to be cautious.

"Fire the cannon!"

Bernard, upon receiving Li Xiu's signal, shouted loudly.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three consecutive booming cannon sounds echoed in the bay, the deafening sound enveloped the small island and spread violently!

Soon, only a few rough shouts were heard, like apes, like humans, then the forest shook, as if countless fierce beasts were about to rush out!

On the Queen Anne's Revenge, all sailors were holding swords, staring at the edge of the forest, their foreheads showing sweat, this huge roar was probably not as good as lions or tigers, the sound master must be so terrible!

"Bang!"

The first one jumped out of the forest, roared wildly towards the ship, and then dozens of them followed, standing in the entire bay, the roar spread for thousands of meters, the sound was terrifying!

The fur was gray and white, about five or six meters tall, the appearance was fierce and ugly, and the human form could be seen vaguely, the body looked like a monkey but without any hunchbacked posture, it can be called a giant without any problem.

Li Xiu looked at them and a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth. From the way they looked, they were not very strong, but if they were also lacking in intelligence, the threat they posed would be greatly reduced.

The giants were full of hostility and anger, feeling that Queen Anne's Revenge had invaded their territory and was now approaching them under the leadership of their leader.

The sailors were all a little scared, as it was hard to imagine what it would be like for them to fight the giants with swords, it would probably be a one-sided slaughter.

"Captain?"

Bernard was also a little anxious and turned to Li Xiu for instructions.

"Don't rush, wait for them to get a little closer."

At this time, if the giants turned and ran, they could retreat into the mountains and forests in no time, and the cannons would have no effect.

A few seconds later, the giants were only a few dozen meters away from the side of the ship, and the sailors could even clearly see the fierce teeth in the giant's mouths!

With Li Xiu's fierce sword swing, the more than a dozen cannons that had been loaded beforehand immediately fired in unison!

The first few giants in front were instantly hit and fell down, sinking into the deep sea in the water, even if they were not dead, they would not survive.

Seeing this tragic scene, the giant leader roared in anger and led the giants to attack even more fiercely.

But the shells continued to come and after a few seconds, the giants were halved, and the remaining giants, regardless of how the leader urged and shouted, had fear in their hearts and only turned to flee to the shore.

The giant leader had no choice but to flee with the others, but as soon as he turned around, his head was pierced by a sharp piece of wood, his skull shattered and his brain matter splattered. His huge corpse fell into the sea miserably.

Looking at the ship's railing in front of Li Xiu, a piece was missing, it was torn off by him and thrown away with great force.

Whether it was the human army or the beast herd, whether there was a leader or not, it was definitely not the same level of fighting power. How could Li Xiu let the giant leader escape easily in front of him?

It took a while to return to the shore, the giants were still within the range of the big guns. In the end, under the continuous gunfire, only two or three injured and frightened giants escaped into the mountains.

This was still Li Xiu's intention to let it go, in fact, the giant is just a large wild beast, and wild beasts will usually return to their old nest and lick their wounds in silence when they are injured and frightened. Li Xiu wanted to leave these two or three giants to guide him.

Dropping anchor and disembarking, Li Xiu led his crew towards the island, following the footprints of blood and soon arriving at a small hill with large holes dug out.

The dark holes looked like dark and wide mouths, he led some trembling crew members straight into the middle of the hole, which looked incredibly huge and very special.

Inside the hole, there were traces of giants living here, possibly the giant leader killed by Li Xiu, but as they walked further inside, they were suddenly startled.

They saw a row of giant bodies standing stiffly, with bared teeth, open arms, and threatening gestures, as if guarding the objects behind them on the stone platform.

Li Xiu guessed that this was probably the leaders of the giants from previous generations, who were frozen into this form after death by the giants using the Extremely Cold Wailing Liquid.

He walked past this row of fierce corpses and headed towards the stone platform, but suddenly heard a scream.

Turning back, he saw that one of the crew members, out of curiosity, touched the body of one of the giant leaders, and immediately his hand was frozen and fell off, the crew member held his hand and started to scream in agony in the cave.

Li Xiu's eyes flashed with surprise, it seems that this Extremely Cold Wailing Liquid was not fake, just a drop of its aftermath was so terrible.

Then Li Xiu gave a signal to Bernard, who understood and pulled out a knife and killed the crew member who was still screaming. The cave was instantly quiet again.

When he reached the stone platform, he saw that there was a black concave stone on the stone platform, and inside the concave stone there was a small handful of deep blue crystal-clear liquid, about hundreds of drops.

Li Xiu gestured for a crew member to go and touch the black concave stone. The crew member nervously walked up and touched it, but nothing happened.

He then asked the crew member to use a stick to reach into the Extremely Cold Wailing Liquid, but still nothing happened. Li Xiu felt relieved. Bernard handed him a wooden bottle, and Li Xiu poured the Extremely Cold Wailing Liquid into it.

...…

Several days later, at a shipwreck bay that was not recorded on any map, several large ships and dozens of small boats arrived. Seven of the nine Pirate Lords of the seas held a pirate meeting to discuss strategies for dealing with the recent attacks by the Dark lord of the seven seas, Davy Jones.

A dark, sinister ship slowly sailed into the bay and all the pirates were shocked.

"The Queen Anne's Revenge? What's that thug Blackbeard doing here!"

"You don't know? The legend is that the new owner of the Queen Anne's Revenge is not Blackbeard anymore, he was killed by a young man."

"What? Really?"

"Not only that, but the Pirate Lord of South China Sea, Sao Feng, is also late, it is said that he was also killed by the new owner of the Queen Anne's Revenge!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like throwing a hot stone into a cold water basin, immediately causing a fierce commotion!
