Sorry, My Interstellar Fleet Only Recruits Women

On that strangely shaped warship.

A man and a woman were standing at the bow of the boat, with a large space behind them. No one dared to approach without their permission.

"Brother, do you think they discovered the treasure we hid on this island?" the woman asked her brother with concern.

The eldest brother, without changing his expression, said, "Whether they find it or not, we must retrieve these treasures."

If they find it, then they must die.

"The problem is, after we get these treasures back..."

How do I explain this to the other people?

Our sudden arrival here defies common sense.

"Someone must already be watching us." The woman's eyes were full of worry.

After a moment of silence, the elder brother slowly said, "Originally, I planned to prepare for a longer period of time."

Then we will proceed with our plan to restore our nation.

But the incident on Chicken Island disrupted our original plans.

Most of the ships in our fleet are trusted confidants whom I have cultivated over the years.

In addition, I also arranged for someone to notify other ships that are not here, and they will also head towards us after receiving the message.

The worst-case scenario is that we attack Chicken Island and wipe out everyone on it.

Then immediately leave the western and northern continents with all the treasures we hid there.

We had previously established some industries in the southern continent, and we immediately launched the relevant plans.

"Quickly build up our power there, and then restore our kingdom!"

The man's voice was very firm when he uttered the words "restoration of the nation."

"Yes, brother, I will always support you!" the woman said firmly, showing her strong will and unwavering determination.

Just then, the small boat that had been sent out to spy on Chicken Island returned.

"Boss, the people on Chicken Island asked me to bring back an envelope."

"You have to see what's inside for yourself." The subordinate scurried onto the ship.

However, when they were still some distance away from the man, they obediently stopped.

Only when he saw the man beckoning to him, signaling him to come closer, did he approach and hand over the envelope in his hand.

"Is there anything else I want to say to you?" the man asked as he opened the envelope.

"Uh... there's nothing else."

"Tell them that the contents are extremely important, and no one except you is allowed to read it, or they will suffer a terrible death." The subordinate pointed curiously at the letter.

The letter was not opened.

The man stared coldly at his subordinate.

The subordinate immediately understood what he meant, and promptly stepped back a few meters and lowered his head.

Only then did the man open the letter.

The woman next to her, however, didn't hesitate to stick her head out.

"We have found your treasure."

The very first sentence of the letter surprised both the man and the woman.

At that moment, the man had the idea of ​​killing someone.

Now that they've found the treasure on Chicken Island, none of these people on Chicken Island can be spared.

"But I think we can talk."

Ordinary pirates could not have accumulated such wealth.

If I'm not mistaken, you might be a descendant of a kingdom, a kingdom that could have accumulated such wealth.

I gathered some information.

I saw a rather interesting message.

It is said that fifty years ago, a war broke out between two great empires in the Northern Continent.

Each of the two great empires had numerous kingdoms that were dependent on them.

However, unexpectedly, one of them, the Northern Frost Empire, was betrayed by several of the major kingdoms under its control.

They lost a large number of troops on the battlefield.

This directly led to the opposing empire, which led a host of kingdom armies to besiege the Northern Frost Empire.

The Northern Frost Empire could no longer sustain itself; the country was destroyed and its people perished.

When the capital city of the Northern Frost Empire was captured, the emperor set himself on fire.

It is said that there is not a single good place in the royal city.

Meanwhile, the Frost Empire's enemy, the Ice Star Empire, was conducting a large-scale search within the capital.

Rumor has it that the royal family of the Northern Frost Empire possesses a vast treasure.

Because the emperor of the Northern Frost Empire sensed something was wrong in the middle of the war and quietly began to collect wealth from various regions.

In the end, they amassed a treasure worth an astronomical sum.

The Ice Star Empire fought its way through the region but failed to find this treasure.

Naturally, everyone would assume that the treasure was hidden in the capital of the Northern Frost Empire.

However, the people of the Ice Star Empire searched for a very long time in the capital of the Northern Frost Empire, but they could not find it.

The whereabouts of this priceless treasure are unknown.

This led to a subsequent rumor.

Although the Northern Frost Emperor is dead, are all his princes really dead?

Could they be hiding somewhere in the world, carrying the wealth left by their father, quietly waiting for an opportunity to rise to power?

I believe we have an opportunity to cooperate.

But I also know that now that you know I have this information, you will definitely try to kill everyone on Chicken Island.

But I have already arranged for several small boats to leave this place, and they are probably on the western continent now.

Once news of the attack on Chicken Island gets out, my men will expose the secrets hidden on the island.

At that time, you will become the target of everyone's criticism!

Now, please think it over carefully.

Is there any possibility of negotiation and cooperation between us?

The letter is gone.

The man's hands also clenched into fists.

They were actually being threatened.

"Brother, this person knows who we are."

What should we do next?

Once our identities are exposed, even if we manage to escape with all this treasure...

Those from the Ice Star Empire will surely arrive upon hearing the news, and other forces will not stand idly by and watch us, this fat sheep, escape.

These decades have started from my father's time.

"Many bounty hunters are searching for the treasure we hold," the woman said worriedly from the side.

The man loosened his clenched fist and looked towards Chicken Island.

That was the worst-case scenario for us.

Since the guy on the other side wants to talk to us, it means we still have a chance to negotiate.

Relay my order: send men to arrange for small boats to go there.

I told them I could negotiate with them.

"yes."

...

Several tens of minutes later.

In an empty sea.

The two small boats met in the middle of this sea area.

Zhao Chen looked at the man opposite him.

I looked him up and down.

There were only two people on each of the two small boats.

"You are the prince of the Northern Frost Empire?" Zhao Chen pondered, drawing upon the information he had gathered in his mind.

He shook his head and said, "That's unlikely. You look to be no more than thirty years old."

The events of the Northern Frost Empire occurred fifty years ago.

You weren't even born yet back then.

The only possibility is that you are the child of one of the princes who escaped back then.

"Stop talking nonsense."

"Tell me, how do you want to talk?" the man said unhappily.

Zhao Chen didn't continue to probe the other party's identity, since he would find out sooner or later anyway.

"cooperate."

"cooperate?"

"Yes, I think we can definitely cooperate."

Now we have a shared secret.

Secondly, the goals we pursue can be complementary.

You want the Northern Continent, I want the Western Continent.

"You have treasure, I have technology," Zhao Chen said with a slight smile.

"Who are you? Why should I believe you?" the man said dismissively.

But the caution in his eyes revealed that the expression on his face was actually a disguise.

Zhao Chen smiled and took out a stack of papers, handing them to the man opposite him.

"Whether you believe me or not, look at what's on this before you answer me."

The man took the stack of papers and began to flip through them.

Once he started looking, he didn't stop.

Because this paper contains design blueprints for a large number of military equipment.

From dreadnoughts to more advanced naval warships, and even ground combat weapons like tanks.

There are also some very advanced industrial technologies.

He knew some of the technologies, but they were all secrets of the various empires and kingdoms.

There were some technologies that he had only heard of in theory.

To date, no single force has been able to achieve this.

Looking at what's written on the paper, it seems like they could actually do the same thing.

If I had all these blueprints, could I manufacture these things myself?

By then, the country will be restored...

Once this idea came to mind, the man dismissed it.

The blueprints are very detailed, and some of the things can be built.

However, upon closer inspection, it becomes apparent that many technologies lack certain core modules.

It's like a building with ten floors, but you can't find the stairs from the fifth to the sixth floor, and the next floor is the seventh.

These six missing floors represent a point he can no longer overcome.

Therefore, to obtain all the technologies described herein, one needs to cooperate deeply with the man in front of them.

"The technology on this is indeed very good."

It's also very tempting.

But how can I trust you?

From what I understand, you are very close to a duke of a kingdom on a vast continent.

Then why don't you choose to cooperate with them?

"You should be able to get more by cooperating with them," the man said.

Zhao Chen nodded in agreement: "Cooperating with them would indeed be easier."

However, the risks are also greater.

I previously presented some new drugs, and they immediately wanted all my formula information. If I were to present the technology behind these weapons, what do you think the outcome would be?

There's one more thing.

There's a saying, "befriend distant states while attacking nearby ones," I wonder if you're familiar with it.

Your goal is the Northern Continent, while my goal is the Western Continent.

Our goals, at least at the very beginning, were not contradictory.

And, your current situation.

It doesn't actually pose any threat to me.

It means, "I dare to completely break ties with you."

"Oh.

To tear off the mask?

Do you think you have that ability right now?

With the military force you have on Chicken Island right now, I could easily wipe out the entire island.

Then they fled far away with these treasures.

The Southern Continent, the Eastern Continent, or perhaps even more distant places.

I refuse to believe that in such a vast world, there's nowhere for me to exist!

The man said confidently.

You can choose to escape.

However, all the efforts you've made in the Northern and Western Continents over the years will be in vain.

Are you really willing to do this?

The fact that you left the treasure here shows that you actually want to restore your kingdom, right?

But to be honest, relying solely on these treasures, it would be very difficult for you to restore your kingdom.

Otherwise, these treasures wouldn't still be here after fifty years.

What you need is a helper, and I happen to be the most suitable helper.

Furthermore, you said you could destroy us.

"Why don't you take a look around?" Zhao Chen said with a smile.

At this moment, warships appeared in the distant sea.

That's... a warship from the Dragonflight Kingdom.

Under the man's surprised gaze.

Let me introduce myself again.

My name is Zhao Chen, and I come from the Dragon Continent... or you could call it an island.

I have a dragon kingdom there.

And these are my fleet.

However, these fleets are only the beginning of my great journey.

Friend, is it too late for you to board my ship now?

Otherwise, your chance to restore your kingdom will be a long and uncertain future.

Faced with the man's sweet talk.

The man himself fell into thought.

He looked at the warships in the outer sea, then at the man in front of him.

"How can I believe you and not that you're deceiving me?"

"Trust is a very mysterious thing; there is no such thing as pure trust."

As far as you and I are concerned.

I can only guarantee that we are not enemies at present, but if we have a conflict of interest...

We will still become enemies.

But shouldn't we focus on making the most of the present moment?

For now, we each have a secret that allows us to keep each other in check.

From now on, these treasures will continue to be preserved on Chicken Island.

You can have someone keep an eye on things here.

Then you can arrange some things outside.

Just like I said before.

If I betray you, you will expose the secrets of Chicken Island.

At that time, I will be attacked by the masses.

The consequences for me might be even more severe.

Because I have a kingdom behind me.

And similarly, if you betray me, you will be betrayed.

Then I can use these treasures to fight you to the death.

This is why we can check and balance each other.

How about it? Think about it.

"Our cooperation can bring us a lot." Zhao Chen smiled as he looked at the other person.

"I have to say, your opinion really appeals to me."

"But I need a little time," the man said.

I can give you time.

Let's do this.

To put your mind at ease, I've arranged for my fleet to anchor on the other side of Chicken Island; this is my way of showing my sincerity.

"Um.

Thanks."

The man rowed the boat, preparing to leave.

"Speaking of which, we've been talking for quite a while now."

"At least I should know how to address you, right?" Zhao Chen shouted as he watched the small boat sail away.

“Fire demon,” the man said.

He wasn't referring to his real name; it was probably just a code name he used within the pirate crew.

But this code name also made Zhao Chen think of something.

In this pirate group

There was a very powerful character, who was said to be the seventh member of the pirate crew.

Codenamed Fire Demon, he is a very capable young man.
