This matter is indeed rather peculiar.
Considering the capabilities of the crew on the [Gryde] fleet.
To avoid directly exposing themselves to the mastermind behind this incident, Ronald and his team took a less aggressive approach, lowering their altitude and approaching Barrier Mountain near the sea surface.
Only when they reached directly beneath Floating Mountain did the pirate ships become clearly visible.
Dozens of wooden sailboats surrounded the [Gryde] fleet, but due to the size difference, they hadn't seemed very noticeable before.
Now that they got closer and observed them, it indeed felt like a scene of the stars surrounding the moon.
"..."
"As expected from the [Gryde] crew, their barrier setup is quite impeccable."
At this moment, Eloise beside Ronald exclaimed in admiration.
Although the pirate ships surrounded the steamship, the truth was — no pirates could get onto these three large ships.
