If it had been in the past, he wouldn't even have been qualified to stand before him and speak.
How to prove it now?
Only strength can prove everything.
Since that's the case, then fight your way in.
Thinking of this, Draeger swung his Dragonhide Cloak without hesitation.
His specially made prosthetic limb clenched into a fist, striking the Dragon Knight in front of him.
The Dragon Knight's pupils constricted, and he quickly used his arm to block.
"Hmph~"
The Dragon Knight let out a muffled grunt, falling to the ground.
The Dragon behind him, seeing its master in trouble, flapped its wings and charged over.
"Roar~~"
A roar from the Dragon.
A fishy smell gust of wind came directly at him.
The elite guards who followed Draeger were all prepared for battle.
If Draeger was in trouble, they wouldn't stand by.
However, Draeger's expression didn't change, and his scar-covered eye narrowed slightly.
"Ah~!"
Facing the charging Dragon, he also let out a furious roar.
The Dragon was so frightened by this roar that its limbs went soft.
It instinctively let out a long stream of fiery breath.
Draeger was instantly engulfed in the scorching flames.
The elite guards behind quickly dodged.
The splashing flames ignited the entire ship.
On this dark sea, it became the most dazzling light.
All the pirates in Devil's Bay noticed the situation here.
When the flames dissipated, the ship was ablaze.
The elite guards wanted to jump into the sea to escape, but they were also curious if Draeger was dead or alive.
When they poked their heads out from behind cover.
They were surprised to find that Draeger was already riding on the Dragon's neck.
"Ah~~!"
Draeger, sitting on the Dragon's neck, let out a strange roar, as if proclaiming his victory.
Seeing Draeger completely unharmed, a feeling of admiration rose in everyone's hearts.
Even if they wore heavy armor, they would have been unable to escape the fate of turning into molten slag under the Dragon's fiery breath.
Draeger glanced at the crowd below.
He casually tugged on the reins on the Dragon's back.
The Dragon dared not resist in the slightest, carrying Draeger towards the main ship.
Flying through layers of mist, soaring above the sea.
The scattered lights rapidly receded, and the distant, palace-like large ship was brightly lit.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
Before Draeger could even land on the deck of the large ship with the Dragon.
Square stone nets, weighted with stones, were launched, spinning rapidly.
Draeger pulled the reins in his hand, controlling the Dragon to dodge.
"Thud~!"
A heavy thud.
Draeger, riding the Dragon, landed steadily on the deck.
Immediately, a group of elite guards in heavy armor surrounded him.
Through the narrow slits of their knight helmets, they saw a figure that filled them with dread.
As elite guards on the main fleet, they had seen Draeger's true appearance more than once.
Draeger calmly slid off the Dragon's back and slowly walked onto the deck.
With each step he took forward, the elite guards surrounding him retreated three steps.
Seeing Draeger leave, the Dragon cautiously slipped away.
"Where is Savage?"
A calm greeting, yet it sounded like a demonic deity's interrogation.
The former overlord of the sea, the old rival who had always suppressed the Savage Dragon Hunting Group.
He instilled genuine fear in these elite guards.
Longswords reflected the torchlight, but no one dared to step forward.
"Draeger, you actually dare to appear before me alone? Are you really not afraid of death?"
Before the person arrived, a rough voice had already pierced through the crowd and resonated across the deck.
The elite guards, who had already formed a circle, immediately split to both sides, clearing a path for Savage.
Draeger looked at Savage with a solemn expression, at his former opponent.
Perhaps he would truly die here today.
But Savage was his only hope for revenge.
"Since I have already arrived here, how could I be afraid of death?"
Savage stood before Draeger and laughed uproariously.
"Hahaha, hahaha, Draeger, I never thought you would come to such an end."
"Where is your Dragon King? Where is your million-strong fleet? Where is your maritime empire?"
"Tie up your respected overlord of the sea for me."
The elite guards behind him looked at Savage with blank expressions.
Clearly, none of them dared to lay a hand on Draeger.
"Why are you all standing there stunned? Tie Draeger up for me!"
"From today onwards, I, Savage, am the true overlord of the sea."
As he spoke, Savage looked at Draeger with a gloomy gaze.
And in his heart, he was hesitating whether or not to kill him.
If he didn't kill him, with Draeger's strength and prestige, he might very well rise again.
Although killing him would eliminate future troubles forever.
But if he didn't kill him, and tormented him every day, or treated him as a slave, keeping him tied by his side.
It would definitely be the victor's best trophy, and at the same time, it would completely establish the reputation of the Savage Dragon Hunting Group, solidifying their position as the overlords of the sea.
For a moment, Savage was torn.
So he could only have his subordinates tie Draeger up and put him in the ship's cabin.
He would enjoy dinner while contemplating how to deal with Draeger.
Inside the cabin, the candlelight flickered constantly.
Draeger was shrouded in shadow, his broad and long shadow behind him like a motionless beast.
Across from him, Savage, with a knife and fork in hand, his shadow like another beast, enjoying dinner while admiring his trophy.
Savage cut a piece of Dragon leg meat, put it in his mouth, and slowly chewed.
The two looked at each other across the table.
There was not a trace of fear in Draeger's eyes.
Savage was puzzled; Draeger had lost his Dragon King and his fleet.
Why did he still dare to come alone to his death?
"Clink~"
Savage put down his knife and fork, elegantly wiping the bloodstain from the corner of his mouth.
He then tidied his beard.
"Draeger, why do you think I won't kill you?"
Draeger slowly raised his gloomy eyes.
"Because if you want to become the overlord of the sea, you will definitely be curious about who defeated me."
Savage nodded, motioning for Draeger to continue.
"My Dragon King died on the coast of Green Town, and my million-strong army became his prisoners."
"As long as you help me defeat him, I am willing to become your subordinate."
Savage's lips curved slightly upwards.
This condition seemed very tempting; the former overlord of the sea becoming his subordinate.
It would be an unparalleled honor wherever he went.
But he also understood.
Such a powerful person becoming his subordinate would eventually take his place.
Moreover, for decades, the Savage Dragon Hunting Group had never been Draeger's match.
Why did he have the confidence to help Draeger get revenge?
Although he also had a million-strong fleet and a Dragon Knight Legion, he lacked a Dragon King.
Therefore, Savage was not in a hurry to agree, but instead retorted, "Why do you think I would help you get revenge?"
