The Thousand Mask Warrior
Battle on the River Sixteenth Section: Retreat Regularly



One figure flashed over the heads of the attackers quickly. He took a weapon from his hand that raged like a bolt of lightning in space. Not just once, but up to three attacks in one fell swoop. This situation actually benefits the buttress, so that maybe ten pirates jolted backwards, slammed or fell on the deck. Their weapons slipped out of their hands. Some were thrown down from the ship into the river, some even jerked out at once with the owner.


“The battle pattern you are doing is less an additional one swordsman. We hit them in three winds. But I will use my weapon as a distance cutter because it is longer than your weapons, but at the same time remain on the defensive side,” exclaimed the figure did not suddenly come and basically saved them from the roar of the enemy.


Sasangaka and Jaka Pasirluhur looked at the figure from head to toe. Their helper warrior was a Chinese with a sword-shaped weapon in his right hand, but it looked very different. The sword was as flexible as a whip or whip.


“Don't gawk like that. Prepare yourselves. I wonder too. We will discuss later, even if you want,” said the figure of the Chinese swordsman who turned out to be Fong Pak Laoya.


For a moment, Lan Xang's troops had managed to get closer to the ship that was being carried by the pirates of Annam or Daisy and Champa. They attacked the pirate boats on the river. Many have managed to climb the ship at the stern and help the troops and crew of Lan Xang up there. Therefore, it was easy for Yu, Pratiwi and Laoya to climb up the stern of the ship and defend there, attacking the pirates who kept trying to board the ship.


The ship's stern could be said to have now been coated in a double defense. The Lan Xang soldiers from the three merchant ships behind them, and the combined soldiers who filled the stern of the ship along with Fong Pak Laoya, Yu and Pratiwi.


“This ship is not completely safe yet. The bow of the ship was attacked by pirates. We must help them, perhaps with the Lan Xang warriors who were overflowing the stern. We have to go to the bow right now if we want this ship to remain intact and not end like our ship earlier,” exclaimed Yu.


He was just about to step up when Fong Pak Laoya held his shoulder. “You are here with Pratiwi. Help Lan Xang's forces hold Annam and Champa's men. I will go ahead while taking some soldiers and bodyguards Lan Xang in the stern or middle of the ship,” said the Laoya.


Fong Pak Laoya immediately rushed forward along with some of Lan Xang's bodyguards to save the bow from the attacks of the pirates. Sure enough, when they got to the front, Fong Pak Laoya saw two warriors who were being ploughed by pirates against their enemies with extraordinary patterns and silat abilities. Only, they are now also in a state of increasing urgency. So, Laoya decided to go straight into the battle and help the two masked warriors.


Now, the three warriors who united impromptu form a combat pattern that is almost impenetrable. Fong Pak Laoya fused his bending sword with a rotating force, Sasangka advanced and retreated with the steps of his three decisive and deadly swordsmen, made complete with Jaka Pasirluhur who constantly disturb the opponent with attacks organized but unpredictable. All three managed to collapse the opponent's attack. Not to mention the few Lan Xang soldiers who helped attack the pirates. In fact, before long, Lan Xang's troops from the stern had also increased the number of people to the bow.


Before long, Annam and Champa's boats had to completely retreat. Lan Xang troops managed to make a boat attached to the ship that was captained by the Lan Xang people to leave. The pirates who were on the ship began to be pushed by the attack of Fong Pak Laoya, Sasangka, Jaka Pasirluhur and Lan Xang soldiers so that they fell into the river. Their fate was determined by either dying or being wiped out by Lan Xang's forces from a boat, or swimming freely to the shore, or following the boats of their other companions.


At the stern, Pratiwi and Yu stood firm, not doing too much because the pirates had retreated in an orderly fashion.


“They can still win over us. They are too many to really fight. But, I think they decided to retreat and let go of this battle. Victims are too many from their side, so they might consider this battle a loss, not in accordance with the desired results,” he said coldly and flatly to Yu. “What do they really want from this ship?” selidik Pratiwi's.
