Sol's troops terrified people. And it wasn't just because of the mercons or the sharp demon sabers. Sol's main asset was his armada.

Instead of mounting cannons on ships, the pirate ordered them to be redesigned to be carried on the back. This allowed them to fire at people while already standing on their ship.

In addition, during land operations, there was no need to bring the ship close: the demons on the mercons reached the land, ordered the fish to attack people with their sharp saw-like noses, and fired from convenient positions.

The humans tried to create something similar, but their flimsy backs could not withstand the power of a cannon shot.
