Hundreds of thousands of Silver Coins...
Now, it’s not just the scattered pirates, even so of the powerful pirate gangs have started to feel tempted.
But... in this Southern Island Sea Region, there are only two islands that can produce Living Copper Ore.
One of them is Fur Island, now in the hands of the Duorong Federation.
However, Fur Island has made it clear that there will be no mining in the short term, which actually ans not much profit will be coming out of this island.
So... pirates have turned their attention towards the other island that can also produce Living Copper Ore:
Ijima, held by the Marine Army warlords!
The Pirate Alliance seems to want to cooperate with the Marine Army warlords?
But what’s that got to do with us ordinary pirates?
Your Pirate Alliance, you can’t control , can you?
And besides, hijacking one shipnt can earn tens of thousands of Silver Coins, with such a high reward, even the Pirate Alliance would be tempted to get involved, wouldn’t they?
...
In just a few days, undercurrents surged.
The leader of the Black Snake Gang, seeing the change in the situation, was shocked inwardly, secretly marveling at Fang Yu’s strong capabilities and incredible cunning, as he easily maneuvered resources to orchestrate the current scenario.
On the other hand, following Fang Yu’s subsequent arrangents, a new round of operations began:
The Lighthouse Association started gathering large amounts of information on Ijima’s Living Copper Ore transportation routes, mining speed, transport frequency, and more.
And then they sold this information to the passing pirates.
After acquiring the relevant information, although Ijima was located within the Marine Army’s defensive line and was tightly guarded, the ocean is vast, and no matter how tight a defense, the pirates managed to find loopholes.
So pirates were caught and intercepted.
But large numbers of pirates successfully infiltrated the Marine Army’s defensive line.
And their actions were reminiscent of when Fang Yu was on Blue Star, with a bicycle tire puncture being subrged in a basin of water to find the leak.
It seed seamless, but if you looked carefully, you were bound to find a flaw.
Dense numbers of pirates continuously attempted to infiltrate and explore.
Eventually, they did discover many loopholes in the Marine Army’s defenses.
So pirates then sold the loophole information back to the Lighthouse Association, forming a sort of positive cycle between the parties.
"The latest warlord defensive line information has been updated; we have currently found 68 loopholes in the warlord lines, allowing access to Ijima to intercept Living Copper Ore transportation through these gaps."
The Lighthouse Association not only sold this information to pirates but also conveyed it to Fang Yu on Yunjiji Island.
Though Fang Yu remained inactive during this period, he was fully aware of the weaknesses in the Marine Army’s defenses.
"Good, continue fernting, the ti to tighten the net is fast approaching."
Fang Yu sent a ssage to the leader of the Black Snake Gang through private chats with crew mbers on forums.
"Tighten the net? Do you have any further plans?"
Hearing this from Fang Yu, the leader of the Black Snake Gang was surprised, then mildly curious.
Fang Yu rely smiled and logged off, calmly watching the situation unfold.
On the third day of the Living Copper Ore price surge, finally...
So pirates lurking near Ijima made their move, directly intercepting a Marine Army ship heading to the munitions factory, seizing two thousand tons of Living Copper Ore.
They imdiately resold it through the Lighthouse Association to mineral rchants.
Profiting thirty thousand Silver Coins!
In one fell swoop, they achieved financial freedom.
The success of this group of pirates was like an inspirational story, directly stimulating all the pirates.
Suddenly, the pirates went crazy, disregarding any notions of lying in wait or timing for the best opportunity.
As soon as a ship from Ijima set sail, they acted imdiately, intercepting the ship carrying Living Copper Ore.
One ship... two ships... three ships...
Groups of pirates acted like madn.
What is this Living Copper Ore?
It’s practically a gold mine!
Every day, news spread among the pirate community of pirates hijacking Living Copper Ore and selling it off quickly to beco rich overnight.
Even the Pirate Alliance, initially considering a collaborative stance with the Marine Army to jointly take the sea mining battlefield, began to waver and hesitate.
Cooperate?
Of course, cooperation is needed...
But there’s no rush, there’s sothing else to handle first.
And what would that other thing be?
Of course, it’s starting a business by robbing Living Copper Ore!
Even the Pirate Alliance got directly involved.
One mont allies, the next they bared their fangs and started draining their own minefields.
The actions of the pirates and the Pirate Alliance naturally caught the attention of the Marine Army warlords.
The first batch being hijacked was simply tolerable, being cautious and focusing their primary attention on the battlefield first, securing the battlefield.
But second batch, then the second batch...
Even ships transporting daily supplies, you hijacked those too?
The Marine Army warlords imdiately got the ssage.
This won’t do!
We can’t let these turtles continue creating chaos unchallenged.
If all the Living Copper Ore is hijacked, wouldn’t that an my munitions factories won’t have the mineral materials needed to manufacture weaponry and equipnt?
Weaponry and equipnt are critical keys for the Marine Army to launch an Alien revolt and are absolutely essential.
If there is no continuous supply of weaponry, what will the warriors at the front line fight with?
Furthermore, the rampant activities of the pirates near Ijima resulted in another severe consequence:
Ijima beca isolated!
