The knight youth, Zong Ge, and others swam out of the Grey Rat, rapidly rising to the surface.
The closer they got to the surface, the more light there was, and the clearer their vision became.
The booming sound of cannons was also clearer.
Iron cannonballs mixed with broken wood and mutilated bodies, carrying a mass of bubbles, were frequently falling into the sea.
From beneath the water, the knight youth and Zong Ge could clearly see the situation—three enemy ships were charging toward a grey pirate ship, but there was still some distance between them. During the charge, the three enemy ships continuously fired their cannons.
The grey-clad substitute youth, subdued under the dragon-man form, had already been captured. His subordinates were also detained within the pirate ship's cabin.
Therefore, the Grey Rat pirate ship was currently being bombarded passively.
