Not wanting to play with these pirates for long, Arya Pethak immediately darted quickly using her Wind God Step Ajian.
A single slash of the Demon Sword pointed towards the belly of the pirate leader.
Shreeeeettttthhh!!
The eyes of the leader of the pirate group glared at the astonishing speed of Arya Pethak. The sword in his right hand instantly fended off the slash of the Demonic Sword from Arya Pethak.
Thhraaaanggg!!
As the left hand of the pirate leader swung his sword, Arya Pethak's body disappeared from sight. Not yet had the leader of the pirate group fully realized, a hard kick struck his waist from Arya Pethak who appeared suddenly behind him.
Dhiieeeesssh...
Aaauuugggghhhhh!!
The one-eyed pirate leader immediately fell down while groaning in pain. His waist was like being hit by a large wooden block until it felt like it was about to break. Grimacing in pain, the leader of the pirate group immediately stood up.
Arya Pethak again darted quickly towards the lead of the pirates while grinning widely. Suddenly in the middle of the road Arya Pethak's body disappeared from sight. Apparently Arya Pethak joined Ajian Halimun with Ajian Step God of Wind because it is impossible to use other studies for fear of repercussions on the crossing they are riding.
A single slash of the Demon Sword pointed towards the neck of the leader of the pirate group from Arya Pethak who suddenly appeared beside the one-eyed man.
Shreeeeettttthhh!!
The cold wind was rushing to threaten lives. The pirate leader realized that he was in danger of quickly swinging the sword in his right hand.
Thrraannngggg!!
A loud clink rang out from the clash of the two weapons. Quickly the leader of the pirate group swung the sword in his left hand towards Arya Pethak, but again the handsome young man disappeared from sight.
As the one-eyed man was still confused by the existence of his opponent, Arya Pethak appeared before him with a hand that was engulfed by a bluish-white beam like lightning.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm!!!
A loud explosion was heard when Arya Pethak's right hand, using Ajian Guntur Saketi, slammed into the chest of the pirate group's leader. He who was wary was only able to hold Ajian Thunder Saketi by crossing the two swords in front of the chest. The body of the leader of the pirate group was pushed back to the deck of the crossing ship owned by Mpu Nala while spewing fresh blood. Arya Pethak disappeared again with the white mist that enveloped her entire body.
When the leader of the pirate group was still feeling a tremendous tightness in his chest suddenly...
Jllleeeeeeppph...
The pirate leader's eyes widened when he saw a black sword blade piercing through his chest from behind. Fresh blood instantly flowed out from his mouth while looking towards Arya Pethak who pulled out the Demonic Sword from his back.
"You're the bastards.!!!", said the pirate leader shortly before collapsing to the floor of the ferry. He died bleeding after twitching for a while.
Seeing their leader killed, some of the pirates immediately tried to escape by jumping towards their boat by utilizing the mine that hooked the crossing boat owned by Mpu Nala.
Arya Pethak breathed as much as possible. Both of his hands were covered by the bright blue rays of the Ajian Tapak Brajamusti immediately struck on the hull of the pirate ship.
Whhhuuugggh..
Bllaammmmmmm!!
A powerful explosion was heard as the bright blue light of Ajian Tapak Brajamusti hit the hull. The student Mpu Prawira immediately slammed his hands together towards the pirate ship.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!
Back the violent explosion streak sounded. Wood body compiler pirate ship directly scattered shattered exposed Ajian Tapak Brajamusti.
Kreeeeekkkkk..
Bhyyyuuurr...
There was a sound of broken wood and the black-flagged mast of the ship collapsed into the sea along with a pirate boat that slowly sank hit by Ajian Tapak Brajamusti released by Arya Pethak.
Most of the pirates were killed in the fight, some threw their weapons as a sign of surrender after seeing their ship destroyed by Arya Pethak with Ajian Tapak Brajamusti.
The crew of Mpu Nala directly tied the bodies of the members of the group of pirates who surrendered.
After the fight, the Mpu Nala's ferry boat immediately developed the sail and continued the delayed journey. After noon, the port of Kalianget on Madura Island began to look like a black dot on the skyline. The ferry boat kept moving towards there.
After some time finally the ferry boat they were riding docked at the port of Kalianget which is the main port of the Duchy of Songeneb.
On the edge of the port, a Kalianget seaport Syahbandar immediately rushed to meet Wide Pitrang who was his closest friend.
"Ba'na just got home now, Pitrang?
Gusti Adipati Many Wide through Gusti Patih Lembu Aeng has repeatedly asked the sangko about the return of ba'na", said the thick-bodied man with a thin mustache.
"Bo'abo'...
Gusti Duke of Much Wide this how? What do you think the distance of Madura Island to Kadipaten Kembang Kuning is close? Sengko is already the fastest time hunting ta'iye tan tretan", grumbled Wide Pitrang while scratching his head which suddenly feels itchy.
"We're just lackeys, Pitrang..
Better hurry to the palace of the Duchy of Songeneb. Let it not be a burden on the mind of Gusti Adipati. You will know that our lord is a great thinker" said the Port of Kalianget Syahbandar quickly.
"I prefer Raden Wirondaya. He's young and smart. Unfortunately he was too young to be a Duke in Songeneb", said Wide Pitrang issued his grandfather.
"Haihhhhhhhh..
Don't protest too much. Now quickly you report to the Duchy of Songeneb Palace", said the Syahbandar while embracing the arms of Wide Pitrang.
" Can't I take a break for a while?", Wide Pitrang is still bidding.
"You rested her after facing Gusti Adipati Many Wide. It has gone there" said the port of Kalianget Syahbandar while pushing the body of Wide Pitrang.
"Eh almost forgot..
On the ferry I was on, there were dozens of pirates. Take them all to the prison" Wide Pitrang said as he stepped towards the horse carriage he had prepared earlier.
The port of Kalianget Shahbandar just bobbing his head to see the behavior of his best friend.
2 The horse-drawn carriage escorted by 8 horse guards sped towards Songeneb Duchy. By dusk, they had already entered the Duchy of Songeneb.
The Duchy of Songeneb is located east of Madura Island. While in the western region of Madura Island became the territory of Bangkalan Duchy. The Duchy of Songeneb was commanded by the Duke of Banyak Wide, an intelligent Singhasari Palace official in the late reign of Prabu Vishnu Wardhana. After Kertanegara became king, Many Wide was appointed Duke of Songeneb with the title Arya Wiraraja.
At the beginning of the appointment of Kertanegara to become king there were two candidates who were eligible to become Mapatih Singhasari to replace the elderly Mpu Raghanata. They are Many Wide aka Arya Wiraraja and Kebo Anengah Sang Aragani. Unfortunately, Raja Kertanegara did not like the way and his ideas about strengthening and improving the people of Singhasari to choose to get rid of Many Wide to a remote area on the island of East Madura so that the Maharaja Kertanegara freely chose Kebo Anengah The Apanji Aragani who supported his idea to make the archipelago united under the leadership of Singhasari Kingdom.
Although it has been eliminated from Kotaraja Singhasari but the influence of Many Wide aka Arya Wiraraja did not fade at all. Many Dukes and Regents of Singhasari region asked for help and advice from Many Wide to organize the lives of the residents in their region until they were willing to come far away to the remote Duchy of Songeneb. In the future, the Duke of Many Wide aka Arya Wiraraja is the initiator of the collapse of the Singhasari Kingdom, the resurgence of the Kingdom of Kadiri under the leadership of Prabu Jayakatwang as well as serving the establishment of the Majapahit Kingdom.
Raden Wira Ganggeng also came there on the orders of Duke Wiraprabu who wanted to make the Yellow Kembang Duchy as an advanced territory. Duke Wiraprabu needed advice from Duke Arya Wiraraja on many matters including the development of Tanjung Salaka Port as the third entrance of Singhasari Kingdom after Hujung Galuh Port and Halong Port.
"Stop you guys!!"
Shouted one of the four soldiers guarding the gates of the Duchy of Songeneb. They cast their spears as a sign to be forbidden to enter. The party immediately stopped their horse footsteps right in front of the soldiers.
Wide Pitrang immediately got off the horse carriage and walked towards them. Seeing the arrival of Wide Pitrang, the soldiers immediately saluted him.
"Well Gusti Tumenggung", said one of the gatekeepers of the palace of the Duchy of Songeneb politely.
They immediately rushed to open the palace gate and the party rushed towards the Duke's private room after entering the palace.
A 4-decade-old man with a thick moustache and a well-built body appears to be sitting on a wooden chair in the Duke's private room. His forehead shriveled like he was thinking of something heavy. In his right hand a letter was written on the palm leaf he held tightly. The man was Many Wide aka Arya Wiraraja, the Duke of Songeneb.
Wide Pitrang became the step of the members of the Yellow Flower Duchy there. Only Raden Wira Ganggeng, Arya Pethak, Anjani, Nay Kemuning and Klungsur who came to face the ruler of Bumi East Madura.
The arrival of Wide Pitrang immediately made Duke Wiraraja stand from his seat.
"Greetings to me Gusti Adipati.. Wide Pitrang set the worship" said Wide Pitrang while worshiping the Duke of Arya Wiraraja. Arya Pethak, Raden Wira Ganggeng and all those who came to attend also worshiped the ruler of the Duchy of Songeneb.
"I accept your prayers..
Please sit down", replied Duke Arya Wiraraja immediately. Hearing that remark, Wide Pitrang and his comrades immediately sat cross-legged on the floor of the Duke's private room.
"Please forgive Gusti Duke,
This I came with the emissary of Duke Wiraprabu from the Duchy of Yellow Flower. He who brought a reply letter from Gusti Adipati", said Wide Pitrang while respecting Duke Wiraraja.
Raden Wira Ganggeng immediately reached into his pocket and took out a red cloth bag containing a letter to the Duke of Songeneb. With both hands Raden Wira Ganggeng delivered the letter. Duke Arya Wiraraja immediately picked up the newsletter and hurried to sit on his great wooden chair.
He quickly unwrapped the red cloth and took out a roll of palm leaves bearing the letters of Ancient Java. He carefully read word by word that was written on the ejection sheet. A sweet smile was engraved on the face of the ruler of East Madura Earth as soon as he finished reading the letter.
"Gusti Duke of Wiraraja,
Together with this newsletter, we also brought a little souvenir from the Yellow Flower Duchy. Please Gusti Adipati accept it", said Raden Wira Ganggeng as he signaled to his guards to bring in some carved wooden crates containing various batik cloths, some pottery, and others, elephant tusks and some gold and pearl jewelry.
Duke Arya Wiraraja smiled faintly looking at it all.
"Pitrums,
Take these great guests to the guest hall of honor. You rest here tonight.
For the answer of this newsletter let me think about it tonight", said Duke Arya Wiraraja with a smile knot. Hearing that remark, Wide Pitrang immediately saluted the Duke of Arya Wiraraja and immediately retreated from the Duke's private space followed by Arya Pethak, Raden Wira Ganggeng, Klungsur, Nay Kemuning and Anjani.
"With the support of the dukes of the western region, soon the country is chaotic because of the mad ambition of this king will collapse", murmured Duke Arya Wiraraja while staring at the dark sky that began to blacken.
Meanwhile at the guest hall of honor, Arya Pethak appeared to be talking with Nay Kemuning and Anjani also Klungsur on the veranda.
"Ndoro Pethak,
After this place, do we still have to escort Raden Wira Ganggeng to Kembang Kuning again?
Or does Ndoro Pethak have other plans?", asked Klungsur as he looked at the handsome face of Arya Pethak.
"Obviously we still have an obligation to escort Raden Wira Ganggeng to the port of Hujung Galuh, Sur..
But I also want to go back to Bukit Kahayunan to visit my parents", replied Arya Pethak as she stared at the dark night sky.
"Yes Kakang Pethak..
I also want to meet your parents. I want to get to know them more closely ", Anjani said with a shy smile.
"Nay also wants to quickly meet with prospective in-laws Akang hehehe..
Who knows, who got there immediately married", as well as Nay Kemuning who was greeted with an Anjani smile.
Late night enveloped the entire area of the Duchy of Songeneb. The palace dwellers and the townspeople had fallen asleep in their quarrel.
The sun slowly appeared in the eastern sky. A slightly cloudy atmosphere indicates that soon the rainy season will arrive. The chirping of birds was unpretentious in the twigs of trees that grew inside the palace of the Duchy of Songeneb.
That morning, the Yellow Flower Duchy returned to the Duke of Songeneb as promised.
While smiling, Duke Arya Wiraraja held out a blue cloth bag containing a newsletter to the Duke of Yellow Flowers on Raden Wira Ganggeng.
"Send my regards to Gusti Adipati Wiraprabu, Nakmas Prince..
I am so grateful for the gift he gave me. I pray that you will be safe on the way back to Kembang Kuning" said Duke Arya Wiraraja.
"Then we beg to say goodbye, Gusti Adipati Arya Wiraraja", said Raden Wira Ganggeng who worshiped the Duke of Songeneb before retreating from his seat. Arya Pethak and her comrades withdrew from the Duke's private quarters.
That afternoon, the delegation from the Duchy of Kembang Kuning decided to return to the Port of Kalianget. While waiting for the repair of Mpu Nala's ferry which was slightly damaged by fighting with pirates, Wide Pitrang rested the entire group at the residence of Syahbandar Kalianget port.
When they had just descended from their horses in front of the residence of Syahbandar Kalianget port, a voice surprised them all.
"Pitrank...
