Chapter 157: The Disguise of a Poor Student

Compared to the overall chaos on the deck, Richard and Gro found themselves in a rare moment of quiet in a corner. Following Nancy's orders, they were responsible for defending a small section on the side, preventing any pirate sneak attacks.

However, most of the pirates were climbing up from other parts of the deck, and there were no enemies in the area they were defending.

But this didn't mean they were completely out of the fray. Just as Richard was thinking about whether to do something, he heard a whooshing sound behind him. Quickly turning around, he saw a pirate who had boarded the ship, wielding two iron axes and hurling one of them his way.

Richard raised an eyebrow, and as the iron axe was about to cleave into his body, he swiftly stretched out his hand and, with a "snap", precisely caught the handle of the iron axe.

The Iron Axe pirate was startled, then his eyes bulged, "Kid, give me back my axe!" Shouting, he charged forward, swinging the only axe he had left.
