Garrett, who had been utterly dejected, was startled by the lookout's sudden shout.
He quickly ran to the side of the deck and grabbed the binoculars to survey the sea.
A massive white warship, weighing at least 9,000 tons, was closing in fast, flanked by numerous smaller vessels.
Thud!
The binoculars dropped to the floor as he stared at the white warship, murmuring to himself, "It's... It's the Stormbringer."
The Stormbringer had been captured by Matthew during Toby's attempt to raid the rear of Basha's Sacred Mount, and that had happened long before King Gawain I was betrayed and killed by Iris.
Now, this warship was charging toward him in full force.
It appeared that Gadel had sent Matthew to kill him.
Garrett managed a bitter smile.
My dear brother Gadel, you are indeed "kind-hearted".
To avoid shouldering the blame for killing your own brother, you even brought in an outsider to deal with me!
"Blade, direct all fire at Stormbringer and slow them down as much as possible. Get rid of all the heavy cargo on board!"
Garrett glanced at the scarred man beside him, his voice unexpectedly calm.
He had worried that Matthew and Gadel were setting up another intricate ambush. However, after seeing the fleet in pursuit, a strange sense of ease washed over him.
After all, a visible enemy was always less threatening than one lurking in the shadows.
As the crew tossed the excess cargo overboard, keeping only enough food for one meal, the ship instantly felt lighter.
Garrett's ship swiftly overtook the surrounding escort ships, but he didn't order them to discard their cargo.
These escort ships were his last resort when confronting Matthew's fleet.
