Chapter 66: Look at me! I am the captain now!
*Flashback*
3rd Person POV
"Shit, it's backfiring." a scientist slammed his fist.
The brainwaves, heck, even just with the naked eye, people can tell that it didn't work. Loki's existence seems to just be making it worse, some may say that Loki helped Lucifer let it out, but it's not, this plan is failing, Loki's existence only made Lucifer feel pity for what the boy has to go through at a young age.
It only reminded him of what happened to him and the hell that he's never going to escape, he's already sold to someone, he's already an object in everyone else's' eyes.
He's unique, or he can be described as a freak, he was not a normal human, he was born with special powers, powers that made him go through so much suffering.
Escorts came in and escorted Loki out and took his tablet away from him, they got him out early before anything else happens.
But then a red alarm rang throughout the whole facility, the sound of soldier running in the hallway is now heard throughout under the loud blaring siren.
Their doors then shut down and he saw that the room Loki and Lucifer is in is the same, it's shut tight and now the guards have their fingers on the trigger ready to shoot at anytime.
"Man, I sure look pathetic." Lucifer laugh as tears continue to still flow out of his eyes "You can't talk with that mask on and the tablet taken away, if I remember correctly, you don't know any sign language, do you?"
Loki just shook his head.
"Well, that escapee if just gonna get tracked down and stop...and end up here like I did." Lucifer chuckled

Perseus POV
"That's tempting, but it's a no for now, I only require his service, it would be different if it was a beautiful single woman instead though."
"Don't the rumor say that you're close with one of the rose guardians?" Zach asked
"I'm quite close with both of them, Ruka hated me at first, not like hate out of malice, but more of annoyance. What is your relations with the captain?"
"He's my grandfather." Zach answered
Damn, he's still living? Joking, guys, don't be offended, he looks fit enough to live for another decade or 2. It's not like he looks like someone who might get a heart attack the next time they sneezed. The magic in this world sure helps a lot.
"Well you guys are in the sea business and it seems you've been to this island before, know any powers of the kraken?"
"It shoot laser beams out of its eyes, its body can only be cut by 8 star equipments or above..." the captain then listed a couple more down.
Not gonna lie, this kraken is sick, I want it as a fucking pet. Like, no one is think of this, the tree of Paradis won't need a navy with this kraken there to protect our waters, I mean, fucking imagine a kraken as a pet, it'd be so sick, and yes, I'm mentally a middle aged man, but no sane person wouldn't want one as a pet.
*****
"Yes! Pirates, we're being robbed! Oh the queasiness..." I then put my hand over my mouth
"Youngin, as much as I love your enthusiasm, it's for the wrong thing." the captain commented
As we were sailing slowly through the calm waves, one of the crew spotted several shits on the horizon who sped up to us and so the captain is now forced to try and out maneuver them, and my motion sickness is starting to act up.
We rather not fight if necessary since even if we win, out yacht might get damaged throughout the fight, and I'll be honest, I wanna fight, I wanna recreate a scene, which is gonna happen soon since we're now surrounded by a dozen ships by the end of the thing, I threw up a lot by the end of it.
*****
They starting boarding the yacht with their weapons and everything, it seems that these idiots only lived at sea and don't recognize me which is great as I convinced the guardians to be captured for now, I just want to see their faces once they realized who they're messing with.
You have to raise a person's hope up and then crush it completely for true despair.
Our crew also complied with my request despite them have questioning looks since they know we could have easily destroyed these people.
"Damn, none of you have eyepatches or parrots? Gold tooth? A hook for a hand or a wooden stick for a foot?"
"Hahaha." their leader asked and point his sword at my throat as his allies join in the laughter.
He's got this stupid tricorn hat on, real fancy looking and his neck is decorated with jewelry.
"Oh cool you got diamond grills on, that's awesome, I've never seen a pirate up close before, I should tell my parents about this afterwards."
"Kid, this isn't one of those storybooks where I lead you to a fairy wonderland." he replied and pressed his blade deeper into my neck
I can't believe these guys are just handing me free money with all the good stuff they're showing and
I then used the powers of both the roses combined, larges vines with sharp thorns then grew in my surrounding and sprouted out and expanded so quickly that it grabbed their boats and lifted them up in the air.
I then controlled them to shake the ships and threw people out, the sharp vines then tie everyone of the pirates up, I had it tie them so quick and tightly from the neck down that they can neither move nor use magic, it's fireproof and can't be cut unless you are at Reiner's level or just slightly under that.
As they are now frozen with fear as they realized they messed with the wrong person...
"Look at me! I am the captain now!"
Yes!
