Chapter 8 Boats

The people on the Denton Pirates' ship were restless. Because of the lack of supplies, water and food had already implemented a rationing system. Ironically, the people who were sailing over this vast ocean seemed to be in the center of the desert, with everyone's lips and haggard faces.

However, perhaps because of this, in today's environment of people's hearts, a bunch of pirates with bad tempers do not have the energy to quarrel and fight. Just manipulating the heavy sails and cables every day has exhausted their little energy.

William and his gang are no exception.

Supply is a big problem for the entire ship, which is why he did not choose to take the opportunity to leave directly.

The boat cannot sail far away, and it cannot bring much supplies. Moreover, in order not to alarm other pirates, William and others can bring even less supplies. If there is no clear destination, know where to park and replenish supplies, driving a boat that lacks supplies into the vast ocean is simply a joke about his own life.

Things like navigation logs that record precious information such as navigation routes and island locations are usually in the hands of important people such as captains.

Since the last time he encountered the Navy, William has noticed that Captain Dan would patrol the boat from time to time. William, who guessed that he wanted, knew that he wanted to ensure the safety of the only way out, but he didn't expect that he could be so calm and did not move for almost two weeks.

It was not until that night that William, who was watching the boat, was watching the night, and he discovered his figure of longing for him day and night. Three tall men were taking advantage of the night and gently putting things on it.

Because of fatigue, William's reaction was a little slow. After two seconds, he shuddered and came to his senses. He quickly pushed Wallon, who was a little confused, and asked him to wake up Ajin and Alamis.

After Wallon hurriedly left, William then coughed softly and walked out of the secret.

In the quiet night, a sudden cough came into the ears of the busy three figures, as if they were immobilized, and they were all paused, and then turned around to look at William.

After seeing that it was William who made the sound, one person couldn't help but shouted angrily: "It's you again!"

William squinted his eyes and saw that it was too dark just now, and the other party turned his back to him again, and did not look carefully. Only then did he realize that this man was an acquaintance, the second deputy, Bamond, who had just had a conflict with him not long ago.

Apart from Denton and Palmond, the other person turned out to be the sailor Gore on the ship.

Bamond hated William for his two attempts to ruin his good deeds. After seeing William, his hand was immediately held on the handle of the knife, but Denton, who was beside him, pressed his shoulder.

Denton looked at William, who was still fearless on his face, and he knew that the other party understood the purpose of his people and did not dare to make a big noise. Once he was alarmed by other pirates who were asleep on the boat, he could not leave.

"William, what are you doing here," Denton asked in a deep voice, "Isn't you a vigil today?"

"I found that the captain has not arranged for the night watchmen on the boat these days. I was afraid that you would have to forget them if you were worried about too many things. I was worried that something happened on the boat at night, so I took the initiative to come to the night watchmen," William laughed softly, "It seems that you didn't forget, it was intentional."

The situation is actually very obvious. Except for the stubborn Bamond, two smart people, Denton and Gore, have figured it out in a short time. William must have guessed their plans, so he has been staying here.

Therefore, when the sailor Gore heard this, he smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "I really didn't see it before, you are such a person who knows the general."

"Captain, are you leaving?" William, who had been delaying for a while, ignored the other party's sarcasm. After vaguely hearing a slight sound of footsteps, the smile on his lips widened and he spoke to Denton, "How about taking us with you?"

At the same time, Valon's shiny bald head happened to pop out from the aisle. Akin and Alamis, who were not well-dressed, were following closely behind William. The three of them stood together, and the four young pirates were vaguely confronting the three old fried dough sticks of Denton.

As a pirate captain, Denton looks no different from other peers who have worked all year round. He has a frosty face, his chin and cheeks are shaved with blue color because of his years of shaving. He has a few traces of gray hair swaying left and right along the sea breeze. Just looking at these, he looks more like an ordinary fisherman. The only difference between him is that his right eye socket is cold and unpopular fake eyeballs.

But at this moment, when Denton's only one-eyed eye was staring at William tightly, his eyes were so cold that people were almost confused about which eye was real and that eye was fake.

The air suddenly quieted, and Denton seemed to be thinking about William's "proposal" - rather a threat.

Just when William felt that Denton might decide to take action and became more vigilant, Denton finally responded: "Okay, I'll take you with you."

"Captain!?" Bamond questioned dissatisfiedly.

"I have the final say!" Denton glared at Bamond and lowered his voice. In order to ensure that only the two companions around him heard it, he almost squeezed out a sentence from his teeth, "Go ashore and do it!"

At the same time, William also lowered his voice and whispered to Akin, Alamis and Wallon: "If you hear me, do it."

...

The small wooden boats that were originally owned on the pirate ship were destroyed in the previous naval battle with the navy, leaving only two intact. Denton originally planned to ride one of the three of them, then sank the other ones, breaking the idea of ​​the other pirates on the ship to follow suit, forcing them to help them attract the attention of the navy.

Now he had to give up this idea and took two small wooden boats with William and the other two, including Bamond, William and Akin, and the sailor Gore, Alamis and Valon, each leading the way.

After a few people boarded the boat, they rowed quickly and gradually distanced themselves from the big boat. William looked around the small wooden boat and found that Denton and others did not bring much supplies in advance, so he asked, "Is there enough food and water, captain?"

Denton seemed to be amused by William's behavior of calling him captain at this time, and said with a big mouth: "There are not much supplies on the ship, and I can't bear to take too much stuff away, so that no one who stays on the ship can survive. The deserted island we are going to will take at least two days at most. This period of time on the sea should be enough, but I'm not sure after I go to the island."

Ajin sneered at Denton's hypocritical behavior and snorted coldly with disdain.

Denton's one-eyed eyes turned slightly, looked at Ajin, and said with a playful look: "What? Young man, I can't accept reality. I remember you were also a fisherman? Then you must know the feeling that you have worked hard all day long, but you find that the fishing net cannot be compensated even if you break it, right? You must know the strength of fishing and training all day long. It is useless to face tax officials and fishermen, except for making it easier for you to commit crimes, right? Do you think all pirates go to sea for the sake of One Piece? Who knows if he went crazy before he died!"
