I will put out in it and wait for the picketboat to overtake me."

Something shot from the side of the picketboat.

It became a contest of skill between the Weazel and the picketboat.

The coracles bobbed on its wake, and then the picketboat was past.

Or kill everyone now, and let the picketboat overtake the Weazel.

Soon afterward, the picketboat breasted out of the fog bank behind the Weazel.

"The crews of the picketboat of the warship will be crawling all over this place," she said.

By naked eye, the picketboat was a black dot far off across the shimmering sunstruck plain of the river.

There was another flash of red light, but the picketboat was no longer aiming at the Weazel.

Captain Lorquital cupped her hands and shouted across the widening gap of water to the picketboat.

The picketboat was close by, slowly advancing downriver amongst trees that had become a myriad floating islands.

He would gather all the machines within the range of his powers and kill everyone on the picketboat, and then continue downriver alone.

Captain Lonquital turned her back on Yama and contemplated the picketboat.

Yama remembered to look for the picketboat.

Yama suspected that the old man was sulking because he had refused to try to destroy the warship and the picketboat.

Prefect Corin's picketboat was still pursuing them.

The picketboat fired again.

Once he was far enough from the ship, he would put out the dory's drag anchor and wait for the picketboat to bear down on him.

Silhouetted against the burning town, the picketboat came on across blood-red water, its single bank of oars striking to the beat of a drum.

R "It is the picketboat," Captain Lorquital told Yama, after looking upriver through her spectacles.

And in the channels beyond the floating harbor, a picketboat and a triple-decked warship were anchored side by side, their sails half-reefed.

From 7 July to 9 July Morays special mission was service as picketboat southeast of Honshū in preparation for 3rd Fleet bombardment.

A pair of carracks stood four leagues off, but there was no sign of the warship or the picketboat which had pursued them from the burning city to the floating forest.

If I was planning the chase, I would put the warship downriver, beyond the point of the shoal, and have the picketboat quarter back and forth, hoping to flush us out.

Tamora pointed to the , lights of a picketboat that was coming around the point of the bay, heading out to intercept the WeazeL "He is coming," Yama said.
