Chapter 391: 391: Lin Zhen is the Pirate Leader (4 updates)

Ronnie’s face looked like he’d seen a ghost, “Shac, isn’t this Jason, your arch-enemy who beat you down?”

“Yes, but now he is our Centurion.”

Ronnie stopped talking, and Stephen looked constipated. It was clear that Jason wouldn’t be easy to get along with, and the strong aura emanating from him made it evident that he was incredibly powerful.

Moreover, his marble-sculpted face looked like a stubborn antique. Having him as a Centurion meant that their days would likely be tough.

Jason, with a tightly clenched face and not a hint of a smile, sternly addressed the pirates, “Our count is incredibly busy and doesn’t have much time to manage you all. But as long as I’m here, don’t even think about causing any trouble. Get rid of your old habits, or I won’t hesitate to clean up after you for him!”

The room fell silent. Challenging a stronger person was unwise, especially when that person was your boss.

Lin Zhen didn’t care. These pirates needed someone to manage and supervise them, and Jason was an appropriate choice.

After Lin Zhen had integrated the pirates, all of those at the Comet Stage were part of the crew, responsible for maintaining and repairing the spaceship, as well as for navigating and fighting during the journey. They were well familiar with these tasks and didn’t require training before starting.

Meanwhile, the 100 at the Satellite Stage were Lin Zhen’s personal guard, as well as a combat team, led by his direct knights.

As a Centurion, Jason was more like a steward who managed the behavior of these pirates.

Of course, he would not care about small matters. As the only Constant Star Stage expert in the team, Lin Zhen expected him to practice, and it was impossible for him to suppress the pirates’ nature too much. Lin Zhen needed tough subordinates, not a flock of sheep.

“Alright, we have completed our mission on Jade Star. Now, we will return to my hometown.”

“Master, how far is your hometown from here?”

“About 30,000 light-years away.”

“30,000 light-years? We could never make it there, even if we walked until we died…”

“We’ll use a wormhole. I’ve set the coordinates. Let’s go.”

Lin Zhen closed his eyes. Ronnie and the others, who were once part of the Black Pearl, immediately started up the spaceship.

As the spaceship left the ground and a feeling of weightlessness passed through them, the Energy Blocks began to burn, and within seconds, the spaceship had burst through Jade Star’s atmosphere.

It has to be said that the performance of this spaceship was superb. In just two minutes, it arrived at Jade Star’s satellite and then entered a wormhole in the sand dunes.

Rushing out of the dazzling wormhole, they arrived above the Aurora Star, which was in the Virgo Star System.

“Wow! So we have arrived in the Virgo Star System so quickly. I’ve learned of another wormhole route. Maybe in the future I could consider coming to Jade Star for robbing. If I follow this wormhole, I will definitely be able to escape from the Imperial Army without a trace”

Ronnie shouted, then suddenly turned to Stephen, “Stephen, I remember you were active around the Virgo Star System, right?”

Stephen nodded, “Yes, our team has always been active here in the Virgo Star System. In fact, we’re on the wanted list of 12,000 Life Planets here. Uh, all of us are.”

Stephen’s pirate crew had been wiped out by the Imperial Army, and now all the original members were bought by Lin Zhen. Unexpectedly, their first battle since setting off brought them back to this starry sky, which was quite emotional.

He pointed to a planet in the distance and said, “Look, that planet over there is called Aurora Star. We were caught because we robbed this star domain too much, including the Aurora Planet. We were here 30 years ago. This planet had a Four-nation Federation, and the councilors were all good-for-nothing, greedy, and timid. If you have money and power, you can handle anything.”

“Everyone change your clothes. No more pirate outfits. Wear the uniform.”

Before leaving, Lin Zhen had ordered a batch of uniforms with purple and gold edges. There was a round badge on the chest, with a Chinese dragon embroidered on it.

This was the emblem for Lin Zhen’s family that he came up with. Initially, he had considered using flowers and plants, but eventually decided on using this dragon, which symbolized the Hua Xia people.

After being reborn, Lin Zhen wished for the people of Earth, especially the Hua Xia people, to accomplish great things among the stars. No other symbol was as iconic as this dragon.

Upon hearing Lin Zhen’s order, everyone changed into the new uniforms. The slaves were crew members, and as Lin Zhen was a high-ranking noble, their uniforms also bore the family emblem, which prevented them from being discriminated against.

The spaceship sped through the starry sky at thousands of kilometers per second, with stars rapidly sweeping by in the distance. Soon, they were approaching the Aurora Star.

As they reached the Aurora Star, the spaceship slowed down and gently passed through the atmosphere.

“Slow down a bit, give the Aurora Star’s radar time to scan us.”

Earth had been invaded before. Lin Zhen didn’t want to barge in and cause panic among common folks.

The Aurora Star was thousands of light-years away from Jade Star, and this remote and desolate planet had never experienced any major wars. The worst memory was being pillaged by pirates.

Even the tax department of the Tianhe Empire was reluctant to come to such a remote planet for tax collection. Taxes were sent through the Dimensional Universe.

So when Lin Zhen’s spaceship entered halfway through the atmosphere at a snail’s pace, the radar of the Aurora Planet finally detected it.

“Report! An unidentified flying object has entered our atmosphere!” the radar operator reported with fear to their superior.

The commander of the City Defense Army broke into a cold sweat upon seeing the Black Pearl.

Have interstellar pirates come to Aurora Star again? My goodness, what bad luck Aurora Star has! It was robbed just thirty years ago, and now they’ve come again.

“Im…Immediately establish contact with them to see who it is! I’ll report to the Federation Congress right away.”

The radar operator here immediately attempted to establish communication with the Black Pearl, while the commander reported to the Congress. The Congress was in session when they heard of the emergency, and the connection was immediately established.

“Honorable members of Congress, an unidentified spacecraft has entered the atmosphere of our Aurora Star. We have no idea about the performance and model of this spacecraft. The only sure thing is that its technology is far beyond that of our planet. I am a bit concerned. Do the members of Congress advise intercepting or attacking them?”

At this time, the signal was synchronized with the radar operator and the Congress.

“A communication signal from Aurora Star, Stephen, you take care of it, you’re familiar with this place.” Ronnie showed a mischievous grin. Although they couldn’t rob them, it would be nice to have this pirate Stephen intimidate the people of Aurora Star.

Stephen nodded, straightened his clothes, and came before the large screen.

Behind him were two people from the Planet Stage, who were active participants in the robbery of Aurora Star back in the day. They were well-known and infamous figures on the Aurora Star, embodying the image of demons.

As the three of them stood before the screen, the screen flickered twice, and the Aurora Star Congress Hall appeared with more than thirty congressmen staring dumbfounded at Stephen and his men.

“Hi! Long time no see, dear Congressmen. I’m Stephen, and I’m back. Do you still remember me?”

There was complete silence on the other side of the room, not a sound to be heard.

Stephen frowned slightly: “What, have you all forgotten me so quickly? It’s been only fifty years, and you don’t remember me anymore?”

“Wow! It’s the pirate Stephen!”

“It is him! I remember his face in my dreams!”

“And the Golden Eagle and Silver Eagle behind him, they are his minions.”

“It’s over, it’s over. Misfortune has once again befallen Aurora Star. I heard that this guy was caught by the Tianhe Army. How could he still show up?”

The scene was in chaos as the congressmen hid wherever they could, wishing they could crawl under the table.

Stephen thought his attitude had been friendly enough but, seeing the congressmen’s reactions, angrily said, “What are you doing? I’m no longer a pirate. Look at my uniform badge; I now serve under Empire Earl Lin Zhen. I am a knight of his. You fatheaded lot shouldn’t look down on people.”

“What? Empire Earl? Lin Zhen…Quickly look into this!”

A more courageous congressman crawled up and said with forced calmness.

At this moment, Lin Zhen appeared on the screen, “I am Empire Earl Lin Zhen. Don’t be alarmed! My spacecraft will not cause any harm to you.”

As Lin Zhen appeared, a congressman suddenly shouted, “I know this guy. He is a wanted criminal!”

“Governor of Qingniao City, are you sure?” The already anxious Speaker asked hurriedly.

“I am certain. Check the warrant from a few days ago. He is a wanted criminal in Aurora Star for stealing secrets and such. I even remember his name—it’s Lin Zhen!”

On their side, someone was frantically checking the files and found out that Lin Zhen was indeed a wanted man in Aurora Star and was shown to be a poor man.

Lin Zhen looked at the chaotic scene on the screen and frowned. Just as he was about to explain himself, Ronnie suddenly said, “Master, the turbulence in this planet’s atmosphere is quite strong and has blown off the two pieces of armor we put on the back of the ship.”

“Is it blown off? What’s the impact?”

“Uhm…There’s no effect on the performance, but the words ‘Black Pearl’ and the skull are now exposed.”

Lin Zhen closed his eyes, now it seemed that it was even harder to explain himself.

Originally wanting to have them verify his identity in the Dimensional Universe, the City Defense Army commander suddenly interrupted the video.

“Congressmen, it’s not good. We’ve discovered the true identity of this ship. It’s a notorious pirate ship, the Black Pearl. We’ve confirmed that several people on board are pirates, and this Lin Zhen must be their leader!”

The congressmen were instantly panic-stricken and pale. It’s over; they were indeed pirates.

The terrified Speaker yelled, “What are our military forces doing, then? Fire! Shoot them down!”

The congressmen, including the Speaker, were panicking and fleeing out of the conference room while giving orders. The painful lesson of being ransacked by pirates thirty years ago was still fresh in their memory. They needed to find a safe place to hide before reporting the situation.

They still had hope. Ever since the ransacking, a Governor from the Tianhe Empire, a noble Baron, had been stationed in this star system. Under him was a powerful escort, including a Planet Stage guard captain. The Baron was the ruler of this star system.

As long as the Baron arrived, these pirates would not have an advantage. They hoped that the Federation Army could hold on a bit longer until the Governor arrived.
