George, who maintained his practicing posture, naturally would not let down his guard against his surroundings, and the conversation between the two sailors named Ben and Bob was also heard by George exactly.
"It's noon... just the right time to scare the monkeys!"
As for why the pirates, who have always been known for their violent temperament and unscrupulousness, chose to take action at noon instead of now, this has to do with the daily life of these sailors.
Although the term pirate has always symbolized freedom and mystery in literary works, whether on earth or in this plane, it was only after being in it that George realized that these sailors were not responsible for anything except killing people and setting fires. Apart from this status, daily life is quite rigorous and demanding:
Watching shifts, cleaning the deck, setting and reefing the sails, using a sextant to calibrate the coordinate direction every hour, eating and taking breaks on time, fighting and making trouble is strictly prohibited, and those who violate the rules will be whipped. They will even practice on the deck in their free time, making it look like a military management model.
But even so, they still have their own rest period - an hour at noon, with plenty of sunshine and good visibility. The sentries on the mast can observe farther than usual, and can be alert in advance if there are enemies.
In short, noon is the rare free time for the crew every day, and all the restraints can be released during this time!
As for the cabin without any amusement facilities, there is only a rickety platform board, several sieving cups hollowed out of solid wood, several greasy dices that are carried with you, and snakeskin boxes placed on the table. With the salary just paid this month in his pocket, and the onlookers and shouts of a few busybodies, a gambling game can be a natural success.
"Hey! The new boy! How about a game of bet later? Is it to get to know our old guys on the ship? Didn't your old mother in a foreign country teach you how to play these low-level games?"
As soon as the black bread for lunch was handed to George, an old pirate with a white beard and a particularly strong body came to challenge him.
George had some impressions of this old pirate. His name was Johnson, and he was a strong man under Captain Duck. George had not fought with him before on the beach, but his boulder-like physique on this ship really impressed him. It's hard to forget once you take one look at him, and his body and powerful strength have also earned him his own nickname——
Dwayne Johnson!
Walking around Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, he looked at the two familiar faces who were silent but looking quietly behind him, as well as the sailors who were constantly gathering behind to watch the show. George realized that these two emotions are not the same. The pirate was not stupid enough, but found an even stupider one to test him first.
No matter what, at least in terms of the number of onlookers, the opponent has the upper hand!
If he wants to fight, then fight!
Although he has been on board the ship for several days, the arrogant George has always disdained to associate with the bloody pirates, and is even less likely to greet them in a low voice. He only adheres to the bottom line of "I will not offend others if they don't offend me", and they are clearly separated from each other. within a space.
But now that the situation has changed, George doesn't mind teaching these scumbags a lesson. He cleared away the black bread in his hand and the seafood soup in the bowl in a few clicks, and headed towards the two people hiding behind. The stupid pirate gave a provocative look!
"Damn, you little brat who doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth! Johnson, fight him! Fight him to death for me!"
"Okay! Let me confirm again, all the coins in this kid's pocket belong to me, right?"
"That's right, as long as you can beat him!"
…
With the faint smell of rum in the cabin and the two distinct groups of people at the dinner table, the situation is about to break out!
