The next day, the Central Star of the Boundless Star Sea, which was heavily guarded, was opened, and the Star Pirates who came back to participate in the election convention set sail from all over the place.

Ji Xingjue stood by the window and looked out.

Within his field of view, the great vast sea of stars was dark and silent, like a black curtain, dotted with countless glowing white dots where the battleships were scattered all over the place, and couldn’t see the edge at a glance.

Compared with the well-ordered regular army, the Star Pirates were extremely wild in operating the starship. If there was hatred involved, the situation would be like, you chase, I run, while overtaking each other, and each one strived to be the first. The real game hadn’t started yet, but their heads bumped back and forth, stretching out the gun muzzle, and were ready to fight ahead of schedule.

But compared to the messy formations of other Star Pirates led by those leaders, Neil’s fleet was quite unexpected, as well as reasonable and orderly.

Qi Qing looked around and glanced at the star map on the podium. “It seems that the attacking Star Pirates he talked about are these Star Pirates.”

Neil went out to discuss with an acquaintance last night, and most likely the ones he found were Old Luthor’s old troops. Ji Xingjue didn’t know much about the formation of troops, but he could tell that there were no fleets around that were aggressive towards his fleet.

Ji Xingjue turned his head and leaned against the bulkhead. He glanced at Neil who was instructing his subordinates, and in a low voice, asked with a smile, “What if he goes back on his words and attacks us?”

He asked the question jokingly, but Qi Qing answered seriously. “I have arrangements, nothing will happen.”

Ji Xingjue originally didn’t worry much, but seeing Qi Qing’s calm and reliable appearance, he rolled his eyes and stopped playing around. “I know, Lord Marshal is the most reliable.”

“If you really think I’m reliable,” Qi Qing said lightly, “speak more truthful words.”

Ji Xingjue said solemnly, “Ain’t I always telling the truth?”

Qi Qing sneered: “That’s also true.”

—It was just that the proportion was relatively small, and most of the time was used by making jokes, avoiding topics, and fooling around.

The sight of the Central Star was gradually approaching, and naturally, it was impossible to have so many battleships landing on the mainland. Thus, the other fleets would stay somewhere temporarily, and only the Star Pirate’s leaders could drive the main battleship to land on the Central.

This planet that was dotted in the middle of the Star Sea was much more ordinary than imagined. There was no extreme cold or endless desert, nor was it overwhelming rainforest vegetation. The climate was suitable, the land was fertile, and the plains outside the city were endless. It was no different from the countless ordinary planets of the Empire after a war.

The other Star Pirates who were on the battleship also came to the window and sighed: “What a good place.”

“If only I could settle here.”

“When our boss brings us a great victory, this place will belong to us, and I will make this planet full of potatoes!”

Xiao Qi, you can be a bit bold and ask for more.
