บท 126: Chapter 107 Second-tier Shadow Phase Occupation Card

...

...

Moonstone City, Navy Office.

In an office filled with sea charts and schedules.

Admiral Bai Ou sat in his chair, lighting a cigarette.

He shook his head in frustration, as recent clashes between the Navy and pirate groups mostly ended in failure.

They had neglected the pirates for too long, and by the time they were prepared to deal with them, these pirates had already grown from small fry into massive man-eating sharks.

Among the four great pirate emperors, the young Ice Demon Pirate Group was somewhat weaker.

Moreover, due to the Navy's internal conflict years ago, the Navy had been weakened for too long.

"Nothing but trouble. I should have become an edge hunter back then, gone to the frontier for a couple of years, and now I could have retired. Sigh, I should have retired long ago."

Bai Ou exhaled a puff of smoke.

In his troubles, he also recalled his wife's nagging.
