Ulong Dagger

Anyone Who Doesn't Come With Us, Drown!!

A burning ship makes a crackling sound here. There was no other choice but to leave the ship, Ni Gaok thought.

"Save yourself, leave the ship!!", he said.

"Fast before it's too late!!".

All the people on board, including the guards of Ni Gaok, immediately jumped off the ship.

While Ni Gaok himself united both index fingers and thumb then "Fwoosh!!" his body disappeared and turned into six crows according to the number of tattoos left on his body. The six crows immediately flew to the shore and as soon as it reached the shore, the six crows united and Ni Gaok's body materialized.

Shortly after Ni Gaok reached the shore, the ship they boarded exploded because the fire had reached the gunpowder warehouse.

Thumm!! The bledar!!

The ship's explosion shook the beach there, causing small but powerful waves, delivering lifeboats full of passengers and bodies that were still alive and dead to the edge.

The deck of the ship was immediately smashed into pieces, a passenger lifeboat that was beside the ship bounced to hit several people who were swimming to save themselves.

After the explosion, the ship carrying Ni Gaok and the group sank partially, only partly because the water was not too deep where the ship had stopped.

Ni Gaok stared furiously at the sinking ship, at the top of which the fire was still visible in some places, especially in the sails made of cloth.

Dozens of Ni Gaok troupe people who did not have time to ride on the lifeboats immediately swam to the edge.

They shook their hands trying to dry themselves. It was unimaginable what they had just experienced. It was not this kind of battle they expected.

Some of the soldiers once on land immediately sat down to unwind because they were forced to swim tens of meters.

"Damn it, our gunpowder is wet!!" said a soldier inspecting his weapon.

It was seen that the other soldiers were taking part in checking the weapons they were holding while leaving the ship.

Ni Gaok watched the soldiers who survived, it was very bad to be in the middle of the sea facing the enemy without weapons he thought. Then he commits to cast a spell.

The air suddenly became cold and from Ni Gaok's body slowly came out a black fog.

And the next amazing thing happened, slowly the grains of water came out of their wet clothes. The grains of water formed a moving strand then coiled in front of Ni Gaok, circling around.

The drenched soldiers were shocked to feel their clothes and bodies drying.

All this time they had only heard legends about this teacher from his commander. And in these few days many times they witnessed for themselves the devotion that this woman was displaying.

Ni Gaok continued to mutter chanting incantations until the water gathered to form a circle twice the size of a ball of feet.

He growled and then snapped, "Huh!!", the circle of water pointing as fast as the dart leaning towards the ship that was riding Ulong.

Water clumps carrying a whirling wind with him make the sea water crossed like split.

Ulong who was standing on the deck was observing with binoculars looking at the plumes of water coming, "attack watch!!, he said. He immediately grabbed Laksmi's fingers and jumped to avoid the right side.

Awang heard the warning immediately held Mardiani and Salhah's hands and jumped to the left.

While Rustam who stood in the middle among them did not have time to dodge.

Byurrr!!, the water ball and the strong wind that came accompanying it crashed into the ship causing a slight tremor. Although the water ball moves very fast but it is just water, it only causes a little pain like in a slap, without injury.

Rustam was instantly drenched all over his body, surging as some of the water entered his nose and mouth.

"It's an attack?", asked Awang, astonished at the amused look at the soaked Rustam.

"Eh", he immediately regained his senses and removed the grip on Mardiani and Salhah's hands. The two girls were smiling, they were glad Awang was trying to save them, because the spontaneous action reflected feelings.

Ni Gaok stared furiously, the water ball was just an expression of his annoyance because there was nothing else to do. While the members of his entourage were shocked, since they had expected the enemy ship to be smashed apart, they just stared without daring to say anything.

Ni Gaok could have turned himself into six ravens at once and flown there, but that risked more of his crows dying and it would have been fatal for him.

Angku Razak, and Samsul rushed out from inside the deck, "what just hit us?", he asked.

"Water only" replied Rustam grinning as he shook his hand.

⚜️⚜️⚜️

Gunfire and the exploding Ni Gaok troupe were seen and heard from the rock where Heidrich and his troops were waiting.

The soldiers did not understand what was happening, they just saw in the distance a ship heading for the beach was shot down by another ship.

While Heidrich and Jhon each held binoculars and witnessed the incident clearly.

"It seems like there are other enemies attacking Ni Gaok?", asked Jhon in surprise.

Heidrich nodded as he looked up, uh but he recognized the ship, it was a company warship, only without a flag.

He remembered the warriors who had once held him captive, they boarded the same ship, the company warship they had stolen from the port.

"Mat Escape", he murmured.

Jhon less clearly heard, he took his eyes off the binoculars in hand and glanced at his commander.

He turned back and unintentionally looked to the left. "Commander look!!", said Jhon pointing to their left.

Heidrich looked up and saw that their ship, which had been hiding, had moved out of the rock because it heard the sound of an explosion.

Hearing Heidrich's orders some of his men immediately ran to the highest peak of the reef and then above the top fluttering a yellow flag signalling semaphore (password language using the flag).

They continued to fly flags signaling to be seen from their ships.

Heidrich and Jhon watched anxiously, since their ship was a merchant ship, it was obvious it would not be able to keep up with the speed of the enemy warship.

⚜️⚜️⚜️

"There is another ship approaching!!", Ulong said and gave binoculars to Rustam. Rustam observed through binoculars, "another company ship" he said.

He handed the binoculars to Ulong and ran towards the rudder of the ship.

"Order to refill the entire cannon on the left side", Rustam pinta.

Ulong looked down and shouted, "Fill all the cannons on the left!!!".

Those in the cannon cabin heard it. "Come, fill the cannon, hurry!!", said Mat Kecik. Then he grinned to Arman, "we're like pirates yes", he said. Arman stared at his best friend.

Tama, along with Awang's four friends and some fisherman villagers climbed onto the deck waiting for orders.

"Get the anchor", put the screen down, quick!!" Rustam.

They hurried to pull the anchor (anchor), on all four sides while some more pulled the screen and tied the ropes to expand, to speed up the speed of the ship blown by the wind.

"Prepare yourself, we will shoot again!!", cried Rustam.

The crew this time looked down and shouted, "get ready!!".

"Prepare!!", cried Mat Kecik happily. The son and Arman immediately prepared in each of them a cannon.

The company's merchant ship leads to them, and Rustam directs the ship to the enemy.

The two ships faced off quickly, at a distance of a hundred meters from the enemy quickly Rustam turned the rudder so that the left side of the ship they were boarding was now facing the enemy ship.

The enemy did the opposite trying to face the right side of their ship to the opponent, but their ship could not maneuver as fast as the ship that was commanded by Rustam.

Rustam predicted that the enemy must turn towards their right side, because if they turn to the left side then they will approach the beach and most likely get stuck in the shallow water.

Now the left side of the ship that was captained by Rustam is fully facing the enemy ship that is still trying to turn.

"Damn", said the captain of the company's merchant ship with a deathly pale face saw that the enemy had now turned the side of the ship with dozens of cannons towards them.

"Shoot!!", cried Rustam spirit.

"Shoot!!", cried Ulong and Awang together.

"Shoot!!", cried Mat Kecik and then lit a cannon in front of him.

Almost simultaneously the cannons were fired.

Bledum!! Duars!! Duar, Duar, Duar!!

Dozens of cannons were fired, white smoke of gunpowder billowing from the ship that was boarded by Ulong.

And the company's merchant ship is perforated here, badly damaged on the front and part of the right side. Bullets penetrated into the deck and hit several cannons in it along with several soldiers.

"Refill!!", Rustam ordered.

"Return", shouted Tama with enthusiasm from above the deck, not to be outdone.

Ulong and Awang looked at him, Tama grinned while shrugging her shoulders.

"Reflame the cannon!!", cried Arman.

The enemy ship with the rest of its power tried to face its right side towards them.

"Prepare, attack!!", cried Ulong as soon as he saw the direction of the opponent's ship's movement.

Rustam had also predicted that, really good old sailors, he was moving their ships following the direction of the enemy ship's bridge, so that the enemy would never be able to shoot them.

"Hahaha, I really like this ship" he said happily then kissed the steering wheel he was holding.

"The cannon is ready!!", cried Mat Kecik from below.

"Cannon ready!!!", cried Awang.

This time Rustam waited, letting the opposing ship follow them, so that more body parts of the opposing ship were hit by gunfire.

As soon as half the body of the opposing ship is seen exposed, "shoot!!", cried Rustam. Alongside those on deck shouting "shoot!!".

And the cannon's clanging again made noise that morning.

Bledar, Dar, Dar!! The enemy ship was instantly smashed down. Some of the cannons had fired back but nothing hit because their position was not right.

Enemy cannonballs rattled behind the stern of their ship and fell into the sea blowing up the water.

A bullet managed to graze the stern wood, only it was the closest attack that hit the ship.
