Chapter 38
"In that battle, Mr. Porusalino also captured Fernandi's brother, Ferraf."
The lieutenant colonel reported here, paused and reminded, "Fernandi is cruel and violent, and he often kills his subordinates, but he is only very fond of his younger brother. After this happens, he will be full of resentment and may launch revenge against the navy at any time."
Everyone in the conference room nodded and agreed with this view.
"He dared not directly attack the G-2 branch base, but he is very likely to start with the warships that go out to perform missions from our base." A branch brigade general pondered, "There are also several small branches around. It is best to notify them at the same time, so that they can pay attention to prevention recently..."
"Report!"
A lieutenant from the communication room suddenly appeared at the door in a hurry and interrupted him. Before the brigade general showed displeasure, the lieutenant said in a hurry:
"Mr. Porusalino, Major Benjamin of Branch 78 has just sent an emergency communication! It claims that the one-eyed pirates have approached Earl Island and are preparing to launch an attack on the Branch 78 base. Major Benjamin requests us to send troops immediately and support quickly!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the conference room suddenly became in an uproar.
"What a coincidence?"
"Can the 78 branch hold on?"
"I'm afraid it's difficult. I remember it was a small branch with a broken structure. You have to provide reinforcements as soon as possible!"
...
In the midst of a noise, Kizaru, who was sitting in the main seat, finally raised his eyebrows and asked slowly: "Why did Benjamin say why the One-Eyed Pirates attack them?"
In his impression, Earl Island was clearly a remote island away from the route. Even if the One-Eyed Pirates were preparing to take revenge on the Navy, how could they appear there inexplicably?
"Not, Mr. Porusalino!"
The lieutenant said: "However, Major Benjamin mentioned that Lieutenant Colonel Ruf of the base set off yesterday and was preparing to escort a group of pirates to our G-2 branch. However, he was attacked by the one-eyed pirates on the way and almost wiped out the entire army. Only Lieutenant Colonel Ruf survived his lifeboat and was rescued by fishermen near Earl Island!"
"It seems like I'm following the clues..." Kizaru muttered, "That makes sense. It's so terrible. The one-eyed Pirates actually launched a revenge so quickly..."
He put down his teacup, turned his head to look at the brigade general beside him, and asked, "Have Lieutenant General Gumire not come back yet?"
"No, I just left the city shortly after I contacted the city in the morning. I guess I will have to return to the base at least the day after tomorrow."
"That's going to be troublesome."
Kizaru is in trouble, and Branch 78 is in danger, so it is definitely not possible to not save him when he dies. However, there is too little information at present and the enemy is a difficult supernova. Even if one or two major generals are dispatched, it will be difficult to achieve results.
Originally, the deputy base leader of the G-2 branch, Lieutenant General Gumier, who came to Zefa's sect, was the best support candidate, but last week the other party escorted a group of pirates to advance to the city.
"Well, it's really a headache."
In the surprised gaze of their subordinates, Kizaru stretched his waist and stood up, scratched his hair and said to himself, "There is no way. For the sake of doing everything for all, I can only run up and lie down..."
…………
Meanwhile, in Earl.
On the snow lion car running towards the base, Major Benjamin put the phone bug next to his ear, waiting for the response from the G-2 branch uneasy.
Vito sat in another snow lion cart, lowering his head to meditate.
"One-eyed Pirates, One-eyed Bandit Fernandi..."
He silently recited these names in his heart, which was a little troubled - he had never thought that he would face an enemy of this level so soon. According to his plan, he had to at least gain a daily reputation for one or two weeks before he could start planning the opportunity to establish his first military achievements.
Can you just say that the plan cannot keep up with the changes?
The Pirate Captain who offered a reward of 92 million Bailey... If he had eaten Sensen Fruit, Vito thought he could not have fought this guy alone, and even if he became a capable person, he would probably have to do his best to do his best.
Now I am just a captain, and it is not a good thing to expose my strength completely.
What's more, the military achievements he sought were only needed to promote himself from "captain" to "major". It doesn't matter if he had a little more, but if he defeated Fernandi, he would obviously overflow this boundary...
"Forget it, it's one step ahead."
Vito temporarily suppressed this irritability, glanced at Ruf on the stretcher, and suddenly frowned slightly.
After these few minutes of memories, he had already matched the strange smell he had smelled from Lieutenant Colonel Ruf's mouth in the sentry hut with something in his impression.
Pasti leaves.
This is a common plant in the eastern mountain range of the Red Clay Continent. Chew fresh leaves in the mouth. The bitter juice will numb the brain and produce a sexy feeling. It is a bit like the carter leaves that Yemenis relied on in the previous life, and is very addictive.
Although there are so many things in the mountains, if you chew too much, the cheeks will swell and deform, and the odor in your mouth will not be eliminated, so even the poor people from poor backgrounds will not touch them.
Generally, only those who are addicted to smoking candies are left to smoke tobacco and live on their belts all day long and don’t care about these sequelae, which will cause Pastin Leaf’s addiction.
With Vito's status in the bandit world, he naturally would not lack tobacco to get involved in this thing. Even among the bandits under his command, he rarely saw Pastenye addicted guys, so he didn't even remember it for a while.
“That’s interesting.”
He took his eyes off Ruf, lit a cigarette, and smoked silently.
When we arrived at the base gate, the naval soldiers got out of the car one after another and met with the other soldiers who were left behind the base. Major Benjamin finally waited for a call back, and walked to the gate to answer the phone with the phone bug.
Captain Ibuprofen's snowmobile was faster and had already stopped in front of the base building to wait. Vito walked over and walked around the motorcycle, sighing with envy: "What a good thing, riding in the snow should be cool enough. I will lend him a ride another day?"
"No problem. When this crisis is over, I will throw the keys to you. You can open them anytime you want."
Ibuprofen agreed cheerfully, Vito handed over a cigarette and asked casually:
"Is this the only one in the base? I heard that Lt. Col. Ruf's Resack family, with his family background, should be easy to buy one? Why haven't you seen it before?"
"He has it, but he just got tired of it and didn't stop at the base."
Ibuprofen was biting the cigarette and igniting the fire. He heard this and curled his lips and said vaguely, "It must be about twenty years ago. When I was a child, I saw him riding a snowmobile around the city."
"After all, Lieutenant Colonel Ruf, the nephew of the legendary beast trainer Mr. Resack, has not been short of money since he was a child. He should play it all before becoming a navy. Now he doesn't like these things."
Chapter completed!
