The days of building the island base safely did not continue. The incident finally occurred three days after Neval led a large cargo magic ship to leave. △

"Sir Leslie, I discovered the Kander Empire fleet ten kilometers northwest of here. From the direction, I should be heading here."

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Lesliela made no other moves, but just made all the ships of the frigate ready to fight and quietly waited for the arrival of the Kandra Empire fleet.

This is a situation that has been expected long ago.

They must be active in the southern waters of the Kander Empire. If so many days have passed, the Kander Empire Navy still has not received any news and made any reaction, which can only prove that the Kander Empire Navy is completely unconcerned.

As it turns out, although their reaction was still a little slow, they still made the expected reaction after all.

For the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, if you want to successfully gain a foothold in this sea area, you must face the Candela Empire Navy head-on.

The frigate can run away, but the island cannot.

About half an hour later, a fleet with the temperament of the Candela Empire appeared on the northwest sea.

The first time he saw this fleet, Leslie's big rock was immediately put down.

At first glance, this fleet only has more than thirty ships and only two Thunderclass Royal Warships. It is much different from the third fleet that the New Air Fleet Fleet encountered when it first contacted the Kander Empire Royal Fleet.

The Kandra Empire Navy came after receiving the news and had a certain understanding of the strength of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, but only sent so few fleets to come. Unless their commander was an idiot, they would definitely not be prepared to come and have a conflict with the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.

Sure enough, when Leslie let them approach, the entire Candela Empire Navy fleet stopped when it was one thousand meters away from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigate, and only the Thunderclass Royal Warship in the front drove over.

As the Thunderclass Royal Warship approached, it waved the flags and whispered toward it through the lookout tower on the mast above.

Although the flags of each sea area on the Endless Sea are slightly different, some flags are common.

For example, the flags that this Thunderclass Royal Warship now flaunts are very simple and clear, which means that it means peace and friendship, and that it undoubtedly has conflicts.

Leslie put down his telescope and ordered his flagship to meet him.

The two ships are closer together in the sea between the two fleets. The sides of the ships are in parallel.

Leslie came to the side of the ship and looked at the opposite side, then saw a middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the Royal Navy officer of the Candela Empire, looking over.

When the two of them had eyes in contact, Leslie felt relieved when she saw the middle-aged man smiling, her eyes were soft, and she obviously had no hostility.

"If you guess correctly, this should be Lord Leslie, the commander of the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce, right?"

The distance between the two ships was less than twenty meters. The middle-aged man only raised his voice slightly, and Leslie could hear it clearly.

Leslie was slightly stunned. Unexpectedly, the other party recognized him at first sight.

It can be seen that the other party is also prepared. It must have investigated and studied the frigate of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

"Yes, I am Leslie. Who is the Kander Empire Navy Fleet opposite me?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "I am Remito Russell. I think Lord Leslie should have heard of my name from President Xu."

Leslie couldn't help but relax.

Of course, he heard Xu Yi mention this name.

Remito Russell is the deputy chief of staff of the Navy of the Candela Empire. He is an absolute big shot in the Candela Empire Navy. He is much higher than the deputy commander of the Third Fleet I met before.

Leslie never expected that this big man would come from the Kandra Empire this time.

"Mr. Russell, it is very honored to meet you. The President reminded me to mention your name and said that you are a good friend of our New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce. If I have the opportunity to see you again, I will say hello to you on his behalf."

Russell narrowed his eyes slightly, and a thoughtful smile flashed across his face.

Xu Yi asked Leslie to say hello to him on his behalf?

Did he say he knew he would come to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce frigate?

"Haha, President Xu is polite. I went to your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to meet President Xu before and had a great conversation. I am very interested in your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce frigate. Now I heard that your Xinfei Chamber of Commerce frigate seems to be moving here, so I couldn't help but feel curious in my heart. Lord Leslie, don't you think I'm abrupt, right?"

Leslie laughed: "Of course not. It is my honor to be able to get the attention of Lord Russell. Lord Russell, if you are really interested, you might as well go to the island ahead with us now. I'll take you to see what we are doing specifically?"

Russell was stunned again, but he didn't expect that Leslie would take the initiative to take him there so generously.

After pondering for a moment, he was not polite, nodding and signaling Leslie to lead the way, and then just took him down the Thunderclass Royal Warship and followed Leslie's flagship to drive towards the pirates in the distance.

In just a few days, no decent thing was built on the island except for some simple huts of residents.

However, when Russell asked, Leslie expressed to Russell very calmly the plan of the New Air Chamber of Commerce for the development of the island.

"Sir Russell, our Chamber of Commerce will first build a deep-water dock here, so that our frigate can dock here for rest and rest. At the same time, it will also facilitate the delivery of various materials shipped by the Chamber of Commerce."

"Well, if you want to do something on this island, a dock is essential. But Lord Leslie, with the size of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigates and transport ships, the dock's size may not be too small." Russell nodded and said.

Leslie glanced at Russell and found that there was no strange look on his face. It seemed that he was having a very normal conversation with him.

This made him a little strange.

It is said that this sea area is south of the Kandra Empire. For the Kandra Empire, which always regarded itself as a great empire, it has always regarded this sea area as its back garden.

Now the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is here, intending to occupy this island. With the usual style of the Candela Empire, it is obvious that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce should be driven away directly.

But Russell didn't have any meaning at all, and it seemed to have agreed to the actions of the New Air Chamber of Commerce.

Thinking of this, Leslie couldn't help but secretly amazed in her heart.

No wonder Xu Yi was very relieved and boldly prepared to develop this sea area island. Could it be that when he met Russell last time, he had actually reached a secret agreement?

But if this is true, why didn't he tell himself?

There were not many things on the island, so naturally there was nothing to see. It took less than half an hour to Russell to finish his visit on the island and listen to Leslie's explanation.

But of course Russell did not turn around and leave like that. Instead, after chatting with Leslie, he winked at the entourage beside him, and the entourage walked away.

Leslie immediately understood and wanted his subordinates to nod.

After all his subordinates left, Russell looked at Leslie again. He pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Sir Leslie. Everyone understands people, so I don't talk nonsense. I'm here this time, I'm actually here to help your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigate."

"Help?" Leslie was a little surprised. "Please tell me, Lord Russell. If there is a place that can be used with our frigate, we will definitely do our best."

Russell nodded and continued, "According to information from all aspects, your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigates have extremely strong combat power at sea, and it just so happens that our Imperial Navy is currently... I have encountered some difficulties and need some help. If you are willing to help, on behalf of the Imperial Navy, I can give you New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigates a certain degree of autonomy in this sea area. For example, I can think of this island as if I don't know. Do you understand what I mean?"

Leslie glanced at Russell deeply and did not rush to answer.

He didn't believe that the Kandera Empire Navy would encounter any difficulties that could not be solved, and needed to come and seek help from the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's frigate is indeed excellent, with the strong strength of the Candela Empire Navy, what difficulties can be solved in this sea area?

But Russell called for the Frigate of the New Aircraft Chamber of Commerce to help, and even proposed a very tempting condition, which is a bit intriguing.

After thinking carefully for a while, Leslie made up his mind when he thought of the few words Xu Yi had mentioned in the previous letter.

"Sir Russell, what kind of help do you need from us?" Leslie asked.

"Uh... According to the latest information we have obtained, many pirate groups have emerged in the nearby waters, and it is said that they all come from the eastern waters. Our naval fleet has some... difficulties recently, and it is difficult to deal with these pirates. It is difficult to clear them all, so we need to rely on the power of your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigates. As far as I know, your New Flying Chamber of Commerce frigates have always spared no effort to fight pirates. I think we should have the possibility of working together in this regard." Russell explained.

"Cooperate to fight against pirates?" Leslie was a little surprised, but then he thought about it but felt relieved.

That's right. If it weren't for cooperation to combat pirates, why would the powerful Kander Empire Navy come to cooperate with a mere frigate from the Chamber of Commerce?

After thinking about it, Leslie nodded and said, "Okay. Lord Russell, on behalf of the New Air Flight Chamber of Commerce, I expressed my willingness to cooperate with the Imperial Navy to jointly fight against pirates in the nearby waters and contribute my meager strength to restore peace in this waters."
