154: Your boat is mine now.

"Really... one wouldn't know, they'd think you were the captain."

Bai Ye slung the fishing rod over his shoulder, his gaze sweeping over the other pirates, making them shiver involuntarily.

B-Brother Bai has great arm strength!

Song San watched from behind, his blood boiling. When would he ever have such strength?

With the first one leading the way, the remaining pirates no longer dared to resist, crying and wailing as they jumped into the sea.

Soon, Blackbeard was the only one left on the deck.

"I... I'll do it myself!"

Blackbeard looked at Bai Ye's emotionless eyes, steeled his heart, closed his eyes, and jumped down.

Where there is life, there is hope.

As long as he was still a Fifth-Tier Beast Tamer, it wouldn't be difficult to re-establish a pirate crew.

Unbeknownst to him, some Beast Tamers who were watching the live broadcast and had grudges against him were already rubbing their hands together on shore.

Hehe, Mr. Bai Ye, we salute you.

Bai Ye nodded in satisfaction, walked to the side of the ship, and manipulated the infinite to drop the lifeboat from the whale breaker.

"Oh, Brother Bai, you are truly too kind."

Song San genuinely praised from the side, "You couldn't bear to see them suffer at sea, so you even specially prepared a lifeboat for them."

"That's right, there's no Beast Tamer kinder than me in the world. Alright, now let's go see what good stuff is on my ship."

Bai Ye gently nudged Song San with his elbow, telling him to keep his voice down so the live broadcast wouldn't hear.

What if others, because of his excessive kindness, came to rob him? He couldn't take so many ships.

Blackbeard and his crew squeezed into the small lifeboat, looking at their ship with tears in their eyes.

These pirates only engaged in forced buying and selling, but you, on the other hand, directly snatched the entire ship.

They wouldn't have the face to call themselves pirates anymore.

Even so, they didn't dare to utter a single harsh word, desperately paddling their oars, only wanting to leave this troublesome place as soon as possible.

Before long, several Deep Sea Mermaids quietly appeared, supporting the lifeboat with gentle currents and leading the disheveled pirates away from this sea area.

Song San excitedly began his scavenging enterprise on the whale breaker.

First, he rushed into Blackbeard's captain's cabin and rummaged through it.

"Come quickly, there's good stuff here!"

Song San had his beast pet smash open a locked safe, from which he pulled out an exquisite metal box.

Bai Ye took the box, opened it, and saw more than a dozen pigeon-egg-sized crystals lying quietly inside, emitting a soft blue light.

[Name]: sea crystal stone

[Quality]: Lord-level common

[Effect]: Contains pure water attribute energy, can be used as food for Lord-level water-type Demonic Beasts, and can also be used to power large machinery.

"Good, it can be used for the infinite."

Bai Ye contentedly put the sea crystal stone into his backpack.

"And this!"

Song San dragged out a heavy box from a secret compartment.

The box opened to reveal neatly stacked gold bars, shimmering with alluring light under the lamp.

"He's clearly a Fifth-Tier Beast Tamer, yet he likes gold. My evaluation is that he should collect more items instead."

Song San hugged the gold bars, shaking his head involuntarily.

Gold was indeed valuable to ordinary people, but for Beast Tamers like them, the appeal of gold was truly not great.

Bai Ye, however, unceremoniously took all the gold.

He happened to need a large sum of money to open a Beast Tamer park when he returned to Luoxue City.

"Let's go, let's check the ship's warehouse for any good Materials."

"Alright, Brother!"

Song San put down the gold bars and eagerly ran towards the whale breaker's cargo hold.

Bai Ye walked over to the miniaturized infinite and patted its already cracked armor.

"You've worked hard, infinite."

"It is my honor to fight for the Commander."

The infinite's electronic eyes flashed blue.

"Brother! Come quickly! There are so many good things in the warehouse!"

Song San's exclamation came from the cargo hold.

Bai Ye walked into the cargo hold and was also stunned by the sight before him.

The huge cargo hold was piled high with various Demonic Beast Materials and rare Ore.

From Extraordinary Level Demonic Beast fur to Elite Rank Demonic Beast bones, everything was available.

There were even a few Ores emitting peculiar energy fluctuations, which should be some rare alchemy Materials.

"Blackbeard is truly a mobile treasure trove."

Bai Ye couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder he loved robbing others so much. Bai Ye was even thinking if he could become a pirate after this competition.

But a pirate who specifically robbed other pirates.

"How should we deal with these things?"

Song San looked at the hold full of treasures, and even he couldn't help but swallow.

"Take them all."

Bai Ye said as a matter of course.

"The infinite is currently injured. Dragging another whale breaker might..."

"It's fine, let's go to the deck first."

Song San followed Bai Ye back to the whale breaker's deck, his face filled with emotion.

This is what you call a ship! If he also had a similar ship, wouldn't he be able to date Mermaid Miss regardless of the weather?

Bai Ye glanced at him.

Sigh, fantasizing again.

"Ahem, this ship is so big, how do we operate it?"

After fantasizing for a while, Song San realized he didn't have enough material to continue, so he returned to reality and raised a more practical question.

The whale breaker was not his small broken boat. A warship of this level could not be operated without a professional team.

Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand.

"infinite, begin dismantling. Remove all Materials that don't affect navigation."

"Commencing dismantling plan."

Blue light flashed in the infinite's mechanical eyes, and its massive mechanical body slowly began to move.

It extended two thick mechanical arms, grabbed the whale breaker's gunwale, and then chopped down with its hand blade!

"Screech!"

An ear-piercing metallic tearing sound rang out. The whale breaker's sturdy armor, made of Lord-level deep sea black iron, was forcibly torn open with a huge gash.

Song San's eyelids twitched.

What a waste, what a waste!

The infinite's dismantling work proceeded in an orderly manner.

Like the most efficient demolition team, its huge mechanical arms could serve as cutting machines, welding guns, hydraulic pliers... Blocks of deep sea black iron, shimmering with metallic luster, were dismantled and neatly stacked on the deep sea's deck.

The deep sea's hull, reinforced by Xiao Lan's Vine Whip, was barely able to withstand the weight.

In the sky, the diligent live broadcast drone recorded this scene completely.

"This guy is too fierce, he robbed Blackbeard."

"Not just robbed, he even dismantled the ship. This is the most hardcore fisherman I've ever seen!"

"Official, come out and explain, is this a script or not?!"

The officials weren't just focusing on Bai Ye; there were other contestants, so naturally, they wouldn't answer the audience's questions.

About half an hour later, the dismantling work was nearing its end.

Since the whale breaker was originally made of high-quality Materials, repairing the infinite's damage was not difficult.

The remaining components would not significantly affect forward movement.

The infinite extracted a crystal emitting a soft blue light from the core of the ship's body and cut off a small piece.

Energy Core sea crystal stone.

"Commander, Materials collected. Begin self-repair and upgrade?"

"Start."

Bai Ye nodded.

The infinite extended dozens of mechanical arms, precisely welding the deep sea black iron to its damaged parts.

[Performing body repair and upgrade...]

[Estimated time: three hours.]
