Beep——
Beep——
The rapid whistle suddenly broke the silence of the night.
"There's gunfire, there's gunfire on the lower deck!"
"Emergency! Emergency!"
The quiet warship quickly woke up when the rapid whistle sounded, and the lights on the ship's upper deck suddenly pierced the darkness.
Brigadier General Browne, who was sleeping soundly, silently crawled out of bed and picked up the scimitar placed beside the bed. His straight face was full of dissatisfaction.
The officer who disturbed his sleep turned pale with fright, "Report to Your Excellency, Brigadier General, gunshots were heard from the prisoner level."
"Did you find out who fired the shot?"
"Um...the passage to the lower level is blocked, and many weapons are missing. It's an emergency, Brigadier-General!"
Brownie was silent for a while. He was so angry that he wanted to reprimand his subordinates, but he also understood that such venting would not help.
Standing up solemnly, his height of nearly two meters still felt a bit oppressive.
"Since we don't know who did it, let's kill half of the low-level bastards first."
"This is a tribute to my precious sleep time!"
Browne had already criticized the process of transporting prisoners.
In his opinion, the best way to deal with these heinous pirates is to directly execute them.
…
…
"Three seconds of reaction time..." Bucky tapped his fingers a few times, silently counting the time from the sound of the gunshot to the time the navy reacted.
It's ok.
Of course, a reaction is a reaction. It may take about ten minutes before someone is sent to investigate the situation. After all, he still left a lot of gifts.
The outer facade of the warship is made of steel, but the interior is still laid out like a large wooden sailing ship. The main deck is divided into four floors from top to bottom, and the second deck is the rest and living room for the sailors.
The third deck is the cargo area. Bucky, Arne, and Moussa were also left in this area. I don’t know if it’s because these three people are too weak or because there is insufficient space on the bottom floor.
The fourth deck is the bottom deck. The space from the deck to the bottom of the ship, which is the cabin, is the most claustrophobic part.
Most of the criminals to be escorted are placed in this area.
Bucky stepped on the damp wooden board with his bare feet, his left shoulder was empty, and he held a pistol in his right hand.
Put the barrel of the gun against your cheek from time to time.
The remaining warmth above dissipated quickly.
His footsteps were unhurried.
snap——
snap——
In the claustrophobic lower cabin, these footsteps seemed to step on the hearts of all criminals.
Arne was very anxious.
His grandfather, this madman fired three shots, and the whole warship knew that there was something strange about the prisoners at the bottom. Isn't this urgent? !
But when I actually walked into the cabin on the bottom floor, my body became as stooped as a quail.
The metal cages in front of you are large and small.
The big one is four to five meters high, almost reaching the deck, and the small one is only about two meters, which is about the same size as the cage Arne was in before.
The very scattered cold light could only illuminate the vague outline of the prisoner in the cage, and the shadow of the fallen person was very long.
There are also countless pairs of greedy eyes.
It's like being surrounded by terrifying wolves in the dark night.
Behind him came the sound of very rapid footsteps, shouts, and the clash of swords and guns... which passed through several decks and landed in Arne's ears.
In front are ferocious and unruly wolves, and behind are flames that are about to burn people to death.
Al's heart jumped into his throat.
"hey-hey…"
Fortunately, the madman's laughter is still there.
Arne actually found a little sense of peace in this laughter.
Next, as long as we release all these prisoners, we can fight against the navy outside, right?
They should naturally stand with us, right?
"Hey, there is a lost pet looking for milk!"
In the darkness, a joking voice came from somewhere.
"If you want to breastfeed, you have to kneel down and beg!"
"Otherwise, the little pet will be taken away and shot!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Little pet, as long as you open my cage and kiss my toes, I will help you deal with the navy behind you."
In the darkness, a two-meter-tall figure shouted in a teasing voice with a hint of urgency:
"You know, I am a pirate with a bounty of 100 million!"
"Hahahaha, Joseph, who doesn't know how much your 100 million bounty is worth?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other prisoners did not hesitate to expose him.
All kinds of weird sounds suddenly broke Arne's fantasy.
Those locked up here are all pirates.
A rare profession that is keen on killing its peers.
"It's over, it's over..."
Arne's lips trembled. If these prisoners refused to take action, how could the two of them fight against the navy outside?
As the source of the commotion, the two of them were probably going to be hoisted to the sail to dry!
"Ah...ah...the lost little pet is really a good joke, much better than the one I just thought of."
No matter the eyes full of teasing and malice, or the urgent situation outside, it seemed that they could not affect Bucky's good mood at this time.
He sat down casually.
The right hand holding the pistol fired several shots in the direction where the most words were spoken.
"Unfortunately, I don't like other people's jokes being better than mine."
There was no change in Bucky's eyes, as if what he shot and killed was just a nasty mosquito.
The prisoners' laughter stopped abruptly.
It’s not cute when a little pet looking for a snuggle suddenly pulls out something deadly.
But are these two people really not afraid of the navy behind them?
If they don't rely on them and don't use their strength, how can they fight against the navy behind them!
The reason why this group of prisoners dared to ridicule wantonly was essentially because they were arrogant. They heard the sound of gunfire, heard the sound of the navy gathering, and saw Arne's timid appearance.
But the situation seems a little different now.
Bucky smiled sweetly and seemed a little dissatisfied with this atmosphere:
"Why, why are you so serious?"
"How about we play a game!"
"Well...how to play?"
He touched his chin, "Well, just before the navy arrives, how about we think of a name for each other?"
"For example, around me, Arne, I call him..."
"Navigator candidate of the Bat Cutie Pirates...sir!"
Bucky smacked his lips, and his smile faded, "Okay, it's your turn now."
"Think of a name for me."
"Aren't you afraid?" A prisoner questioned in the darkness.
"Without us, you would have been doomed!"
"No, no, no." Bucky waved his hands and licked his lips, "It's not me, it's us."
Bucky took out another long gun from the sack, wiped it, and took a few false glances at the prisoners, full of threats.
No matter how high the bounty outside is, these prisoners in the cage are no different from living targets for a moment.
"Jiejiejie..."
"An additional reminder, the punishment of the game is that the person who comes up late will die first."
"Or, if no one can figure it out, then everyone will die together."
"How about it, is it fun?"
