Chapter 774: The bottom overcomes the top
"Oh, the almighty Susano, I ask you to grant me the authority to control the ocean. Ocean, I command you to part!"
After Sasajiro received the gift from Susanoo, he directly encouraged the sea water to separate to reduce the resistance of the ship and help the ship escape at high speed.
"Don't even think about escaping!" Sun Quan was furious. He directly drew the cloud energy from other ships to add to the main ship, and the distance between the two sides was immediately shortened.
Seeing that Sun Quan was about to catch up, Sasajiro cut his palm with a knife and sprinkled the blood on the stern of the boat.
"Oh, the almighty Susano, I ask you to grant me the authority to control the ocean. Ocean, overturn them!"
A huge wave more than ten meters high suddenly rose up under the control of Sasajiro. Sasajiro understood that it was impossible to deal with the enemy with such an attack alone, but he did not seek to kill the enemy, but only to curb the opponent's speed and create more possibilities for him to escape.
Seeing the huge waves approaching, Sun Quan quickly changed the cloud defense into a shuttle-like form according to Zheng He's teachings.
As Zheng He, who is known as the Emperor of the Sea, his proficiency in naval warfare can definitely be ranked among the top three in history.
In this world, after receiving the full support of Guo Hao, Zheng He gained a lot of experience in fighting at sea. Based on the many naval combat methods left by his predecessors, he developed several cloud combat forms suitable for ocean warfare.
The spindle-shaped cloud-materialized defense is one of them.
This spindle-shaped defense is very different from the semicircular defense. Only the head is substantial, while the defense in other parts is almost illusory or even non-existent.
However, the benefits of doing so are also obvious. Not only does it greatly increase the speed of advancement, but it also has extremely strong frontal resistance.
Relying on extremely strong frontal resistance, the huge waves were easily broken by the bow of the ship, and Sun Quan's ships approached within the attack range.
"Attack! Prepare to throw stones, we must sink them today!" Sun Quan shouted at the top of his lungs.
He also wanted to prove that he was not a waste. His friends were all successful, but he was still just living a life of idleness and waiting to die. Although he was very unhappy about being forced by Sun Ce this time, he did not want to miss the opportunity.
If even the duck that was delivered to his mouth ran away, then wouldn't Sun Zhongmou be a complete trash?
Stones as big as human heads kept hitting the ship in front, but they all survived thanks to Sasajiro's firm defense. Except for the clouds on the hull becoming much dimmer, there was no damage at all.
"Legion, prepare for the attack. I must sink them today!" Sun Quan looked gloomy. The opponent was not at the same level as him at all.
It was just a wreck, but it still remained in a pretty good condition despite being chased continuously.
The opponent is definitely a big fish, a general with many years of experience in naval battles, and he might even be the captain of the regular army of Japan.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to have such rich experience in naval battles.
"Legion attack, fire!"
Following Sun Quan, a huge army attack smashed towards the Japanese warships.
The powerful attack caused the aftermath to press the sea water down before it even landed on the ship.
"Block it!" Sasajiro jumped directly into the air and tried his best to block the legion's attack.
This is the good thing about being at sea. Unless it is a super-large-scale naval battle, the internal energy can maintain considerable combat effectiveness even if it leaves the body.
"Blocked? I want to see how many times you can block it!" Sun Quan said with a sneer.
He was certain that the opponent was at the end of his strength, and as long as he continued to exert pressure, the opponent would definitely not escape the fate of being killed.
"Killing a person with internal energy leaving his body! This is no small achievement!" When Sun Quan thought about being able to kill or even capture alive a person with internal energy leaving his body, his restless heart became hot.
Along with the roar of the legion's attack, the Japanese warship's cloud gas reserves were finally exhausted. The warship instantly began to crack under the impact of the legion's attack, and the power was released on the sea surface. The sea water in that area was directly shaken into mist everywhere.
In the mist, a ship changed direction and chased after Sun Quan's warships.
With no hope of escape, Sasa Jiro ordered the ship to turn around. Running out of ammunition and food, they had no qualifications to engage in a long-range battle with Sun Quan, and their only option was to engage in a continuous battle.
"Isn't it too late to fight to the death at this time?" Sun Quan's face showed a ferocious look. "Let them come, archers get ready, I want to capture the one on the opposite side who has internal energy out of his body alive!"
Sasajiro looked at the big hole in the hull of his warship in almost despair. Although it was blocked by the materialization of cloud gas, once the cloud gas was exhausted, sea water would rush in frantically, causing it to sink.
Without a warship, it was extremely unlikely that he would be able to return to Japan alone.
The ferocious beasts that are everywhere in the sky are not vegetarians and will not survive without a foothold.
He had no other choice but to die in the sky or in the sea.
For Sasa Jiro, the only good news was that there seemed to be no internal energy leaving the body on the opposing ship, otherwise it would have flown out and dealt them a fatal blow.
This good news was also his last straw. As long as he could rush up and occupy the opposite ship, he would still have a chance to escape.
"Oh, the almighty Susano, I ask you to grant me the authority to control the ocean. Oh, ocean, turn into a whirlpool to stop them!"
Gritting his teeth, Sasajiro cut his arm again and spilled the blood into the sea. A huge whirlpool appeared in front of Sun Quan's fleet, completely separating them from Sun Quan's ships.
Sasa Jiro's face was pale. He had to kill Sun Quan before the ships behind caught up. Only in this way would they have a chance to survive.
"Sir, are you okay?" Matsugi Ikawa asked nervously. Sasa Jiro was their only hope.
"My strength is only one tenth of what it is now. When we charge forward, you will come with me and we must kill their leader, even if it means sacrificing your own life. Do you understand?"
Sasa Jiro warned in a deep voice that in his opinion, it was time for Matsugi Ikawa to sacrifice his life and serve Japan.
As for why it wasn't him, it was because he still wanted to keep his body useful and continue to repay the gods for their kindness to him.
“Poof~”
Sasajiro looked at the Japanese sword that stabbed out of his chest in disbelief, his expression was extremely shocked. He didn't expect that Matsugi Ikawa, who was always docile, obedient and hardworking, would actually rebel at this time.
"Sir, since you are no longer able to lead us to victory, let me lead everyone to save their lives!"
After saying that, he didn't give Sasajiro a chance to react. He swung his Japanese sword and directly killed Sasajiro's last chance of life.
