The moment Captain Free Sword's eyes begin to shut, Jacob doesn't even waste a second and instantly moves his hand toward Captain Free Sword!
His plan was simple: as long as he could touch Captain Free Sword, he would instantly send him into his infinity pendant. Because once he was inside, Jacob was 100% sure that there was no space talisman or any kind of space treasure!
Jacob even used fluid acceleration on his blood to increase his speed to maximum, and his hand appeared to be teleported directly to Captain Free Sword's face.
Before his eyes even closed, Jacob's giant claw was holding his face, and at this moment, a purple light seemed to be emerging from Captain Free Sword's chest.
However, Jacob was fully prepared and instantly tried to send him into his infinity pendant, and Captain Free Sword's body vanished!
With uncertainty and anticipation, Jacob quickly looked into his infinity pendant to confirm if Captain Free Sword had vanished into his pendant or if the teleportation treasure was even faster.
His eyes instantly brightened with ecstasy when he saw Captain Free Sword's slumbering figure lying in his pendant, and he almost roared with excitement!
In reality, only a second had passed, but for Jacob, this second was filled with anxiety and exhilaration. He had been preparing for a long time for this signal second, and now Captain Free Sword was finally at his mercy!
It was the same kind of feeling that he felt when he escaped Decker's clutches, and their situations completely changed. From being a slave to a master, this feeling was something he could never get tired of.
However, Jacob quickly calmed down as he knew this wasn't the time to celebrate because, despite talking down the ringmaster, his puppets were still very much alive, and the true battle would now begin.
It was now a matter of how quickly Jacob could get rid of them all.
Instantly, he begins to recharge his hex mana since no one has noticed that Captain Free Sword is now gone. He wanted to capture as many alive as he could for Nyx.
After five minutes, Jacob stood up and headed towards the closed door, and he could clearly see a few heartbeats outside.
Once he opened the door, Vile Horn and three other ogres instantly looked over, and when they saw Jacob coming out, they were confused since not even ten minutes had passed.
'Could it be the meaning was over?' Vile Horn thought as he didn't find anything suspicious.
But the next moment, he and another ogre lost consciousness, startling the other two ogres, and they were alarmed since it was too strange.
At this moment, swords appeared in Jacob's hand, and his killing intent manifested, making those other two ogres tremble.
He coldly said, "Captain Free Sword is gone, and if you guys are sensible and don't want to end up like these guys, surrender, and I promise I'll spare your lives. I'll even let you guys join the dark city and get rid of this lowly status of pirates.
"Captain Free Sword wanted to sacrifice you all, but I'm not like him, as I need capable men for a voyage to unique plains. Now, decide if you want to be a stubborn fool like your captain or a sensible person who knows how to bend with the flow."
Both ogres paled as they couldn't even breathe because Jacob was simply too powerful, and his killing intent was something they had never experienced in their lives. Jacob was like a grim ripper, ready to reap their lives the moment they chose to go against him!
This was Jacob's first plan to try to scare them into submission by getting rid of those two in front of them. They didn't know he could only use the slumber hex twice before running out of hex mana.
However, no matter what, they were no longer a match for him. If he didn't want their lifespan, he wouldn't even bother to try subduing them. So, by giving them false hope, he could buy ample time and slowly eat them away.
Furthermore, he was sure that this place was being monitored and there were many hidden presences around, so his words were for everyone listening.
A deadly silence enveloped the corridor as those two ogres were looking at Vile Horn, who was third in power ranking among their crew, lying there like a corpse, and their color continued to change between white and blue.
This situation was the least they had expected, and Captain Free Sword's absence also proved that Jacob had really gotten rid of him and that he was the strongest among them, their support pillar. This naturally breaks their will to fight.
In the end, an ogre with a deep scar over his temple raises his hands, "I…I surrender!"
The other one was startled for a moment before he did the same, "I'll listen to you as long as you don't kill me."
Jacob was secretly elated seeing this working before he coldly stared at the end of the corridor, "What about you six?"
The hidden pirates' hearts trembled when Jacob easily discovered their presence; this made them even more appalled, and they were now sure Jacob wasn't bluffing.
In the end, they were all pirates with no morals and values, they all cherished their lives and loyalty came second. So, one after another, they appeared in the corridor and surrendered!
Jacob nodded, "Good, now you six go and bring everyone to the main control room. If someone resists, detain them. I'm sure some of you were not satisfied with Captain Free Sword, but I'm not like him. As long as you all cooperate, there are rewards for you. I won't mistreat my people."
The six of them looked at each other before they quickly received his command and left.
Jacob coolly stowed away those two slumbering ogres, making the reaming ogres panic a little.
"Lead the way to the control room." Jacob coldly commanded.
"T-this way." The one with the scar quickly gathered his wits and hurried led Jacob towards the ship's main control room, which was the heart of the ship, with the other ogre.
At this point, things were going quite smoothly and far better than Jacob expected. These guys really have no backbone, and they were zealous enough to seek revenge or bend their knees in submission.
Jacob liked dealing with these kinds of people the most in both lives.
The control room was the heart of the ship, and it was well protected, but right now, no one obstructed Jacob's way. Because just as he suspected, he was being monitored, and since others had already submitted, others didn't dare to resist.
Without Captain Free Sword, they were all fish on the chopping board as they fully cooperated.
Once Jacob entered the high-tech control room of this ship, he saw there was an elf and two more ogres already waiting anxiously for his arrival. He didn't even need to tell them before they quickly bowed their heads in submission.
Jacob's lips curled up, seeing the control room filled with monitors and all sorts of unknown magic technology he wasn't familiar with. It was a flawless takeover!
