"Yes!" Robinson nodded and found a detailed chart for him. Ye Huan looked at the chart.
It is thousands of nautical miles away from the next port.
It is further away from the departure port, almost 1,500 nautical miles.
According to the Poseidon's best speed, one hour is forty or fifty nautical miles, and it will take at least twenty hours to reach the nearest port. It is simply impossible to enter the next port under the watchful eyes of pirates.
Even entering the territorial waters of the next port or entering the naval patrol range of the other country is difficult.
On the contrary, there seems to be a group of islands more than a hundred nautical miles away from here.
It can be used as an alternative.
After reading the chart, Ye Huan had an idea and said to the first mate Robinson: "It's thousands of nautical miles away from the next port, and it's 1,500 nautical miles away from the departure port. With the pirates' eager eyes, it's basically impossible to
Impossible to arrive unless reinforcements arrive!"
"Have you contacted the Navy?"
"A distress signal has been sent, but there has been no response," the first mate said.
This is also what troubles him. Even if the nearby signal is blocked, the distress signal here is specially encrypted through a special band, and the company should be able to receive it.
But there has been no response until now.
He thought it was a coincidence, a malfunction or bad luck.
But Ye Huan knew that it was not that simple. When many coincidences were combined, it was not just a coincidence, but a carefully planned action together.
If his guess is correct.
They can't wait for reinforcements to come, and even if the other party does come, it's hard to say whether they will help them or hurt them.
While the two were discussing.
On the golden skull pirate ship, the golden skull and silver skull looked solemn.
According to the feedback from the Copper Skull Pirate Ship, the pirate ship has been shouting for three minutes, and until now, there has been no movement from the Poseidon.
The Copper Skull did not appear, and not even a pirate appeared to respond.
If we say that the golden skull asked people to shout at the beginning, handing over the copper skull was just a test. It was not sure whether the copper skull was in trouble or was enjoying himself.
But now, he was 100% sure that Copper Skeleton was really in trouble, and it was big trouble. He might have been caught, or even killed directly.
After all, everyone here has already shouted.
The entire Poseidon can hear everything, and there is no chance that it cannot be heard.
If there is nothing wrong with the copper skull, even if he is having a good time on a woman's belly, he will definitely respond when he hears the call.
And now there is nothing.
The golden skull and the silver skull looked at each other, and the golden skull said angrily: "The third child hasn't responded yet. It seems something really happened. I told him not to let him go, but he just didn't listen. It's okay now."
, something happened, I don’t know whether I’m dead or alive.”
"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's find a way to rescue the third child first. I think the people on the Poseidon should not dare to kill him easily." Silver Skull said.
After the two discussed it, the Copper Skull Pirate Ship shouted again, and this time the wording was more severe. It only gave the Poseidon one minute. If the copper skull was not handed over, it would directly fire and sink the Poseidon.
First Officer Ye Huan and others all heard it clearly.
The first mate looked extremely ugly, looked at Ye Huan and asked: "What should we do now?"
"Give them an answer!" Ye Huan said.
The first mate spoke to the copper skull pirate ship through the loudspeaker on the Poseidon: "People on the other side, listen, we have the copper skull in our hands. If you don't want him to die, you'd better not mess around!"
"Fake!"
A golden skull curse.
Although he had already guessed it, when he heard the news that the copper skull had been arrested, he still couldn't help but want to curse.
They had already sunk four escort ships, and the largest resistance force had collapsed. As a result, when they went to plunder the Poseidon, they were captured by the opponent.
What the hell is going on?
Instead of letting the Copper Skull Pirate Ship shout, he directly let his own pirate ship approach and shouted in person, "People on the Poseidon, listen, I am the leader of the Skull Pirates, Jin Skull, and I order you to hand over my people immediately.
Otherwise, I will sink the Poseidon immediately!"
"I'll give you three minutes. If you don't see anyone within three minutes, I'll fire!"
There was a cry on the Poseidon.
Those tourists who had just returned to their rooms from the lobby had not had time to drink water to calm down their shock, but their hearts that had just been relieved were once again high.
In fact, not to mention ordinary tourists, even the staff of the Poseidon and the management on board the Poseidon were in chaos at this time.
Among them was First Mate Robinson.
Although he had the copper skull in his hand, he was still extremely nervous when faced with the threat of the skull pirate group and could not feel the slightest sense of security.
He had worried before that the Copper Skull did not have enough restraint and deterrent effect on the pirates, and those pirates who stayed behind on the ship might not buy it.
As a result, it's better now.
Not to mention whether the Copper Skull can restrain and intimidate those pirates, even the Copper Skull cannot make the decision. Here comes the real leader of the Skull Pirates, the real person in charge.
And they also opened two pirate ships that were larger than the previous pirate ships.
If the negotiation does not go smoothly and the other party is offended, the Poseidon will definitely be smashed into pieces, and everyone on the Poseidon, including them, will be buried in the sea.
"What now?" the first mate asked in a trembling voice, already in a state of confusion.
Seeing the first mate like this, Ye Huan knew that there was no hope for him, and now that time was running out, Ye Huan said directly: "Do as I say, I say something, and you say something."
Then Ye Huan whispered: "The person is in my hands, but I will definitely not hand it over. You don't have to wait three minutes, just shoot now! With so many people at the bottom when they are dying, it's worth it!"
hiss!
The first mate took a breath and looked at Ye Huan in disbelief.
When he heard Ye Huan tell him to do as he said before, and he asked him to imitate every word he said, first officer Robinson thought that Ye Huan had some good ideas.
After all, when the Copper Skull led the pirates aboard the ship and took control of the entire Poseidon, Ye Huan was the one who turned the tide. This time, there might be a way to avert danger.
However, despite all his hard thinking, he couldn't imagine what Ye Huan would say or how he could impress the people on the Skull Pirate Ship.
Curious and full of expectations.
However, the next moment, his expression changed wildly.
The expectation on his face disappeared, replaced by panic and despair. He never dreamed that Ye Huan would say this.
The leader of the Skull Pirates, Jin Skull, was obviously very angry and even issued an ultimatum. Ye Huan had no intention of making friends or negotiating, and actually urged the other party to start firing now.
Doesn't this add fuel to the fire?
Even if the other party didn't want to fire at first, they are afraid that they will fire now.
First Mate Robinson had a grimace on his face and didn't speak for a long time after Ye Huan finished speaking.
"Why, didn't you hear clearly?"
"How can you say that you are also the first mate? You can't remember these few words clearly?" Ye Huan frowned and said that he could repeat it again if necessary.
The corner of the first mate's lip twitched.
Is this a matter of not remembering it? It's because he didn't dare to say okay at all.
However, Ye Huan had already said this, and he definitely couldn't let Ye Huan repeat it, so he quickly said: "No need to repeat it, I remember it, but...do you really want to say that?"
"Otherwise, what can you do?" Ye Huan asked.
"If you say this, it will definitely anger the other party, and maybe the other party will actually fire!" said the first mate Robinson.
"Then what are you going to do? Just hand over the copper skull. The copper skull can be handed over. Although he was shot in the thigh and is dying, he still has a life. But those pirates have already been killed.
, what should we hand over? Is it possible to hand over the corpse directly?"
"If you don't surrender, the other party will fire!"
"If you hand over someone, knowing that so many of your own people have been killed will make the other party even more capable of firing!"
"Anyway, whether you are calling someone or not, stretching your neck or shrinking your neck is just the same thing. It's better to take a risk and strive for the initiative as much as possible!"
Ye Huan expressed his point of view, and First Officer Robinson was speechless.
Although he knew that this was risky, he knew that what Ye Huan said was right.
He was not a weak person who just accepted the situation. He quickly made a decision and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's take a gamble today!"
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and shouted to the golden skull, "I am Robinson, the first mate of the Poseidon. Your people are in my hands, but I will definitely not hand them over. You don't have to wait three minutes, now."
Just fire!"
"So many people are at the bottom when they die, it's worth it!"
Wow!
There was a cry on the Poseidon.
Just like First Mate Robinson's reaction after hearing Ye Huan's words, everyone was also stunned and started to cry out one by one. Many people cursed in a low voice, saying that First Mate Robinson played the piano randomly without caring about everyone's lives. They must file a complaint against him when they return.
When these people faced the pirates, they were obedient and did not dare to say a word.
When facing Poseidon's first mate Robinson, he was not so polite. He was filled with righteous indignation and never thought that he was doing this to fight for everyone's chance of survival.
Three or four nautical miles away.
On the pirate ship with a golden skull, a flag with a skull painted on it was fluttering in the wind.
When Golden Skull heard what First Mate Robinson said, his face suddenly became extremely gloomy, and he obviously didn't expect that the other party would be so tough.
After all four escort ships were sunk and surrounded by three pirate ships, she had become nothing more than meat on his chopping block, yet she still dared to challenge him.
boom!
The golden skull was furious.
He slammed the red wine glass in his hand to the ground, "Fake, you are surrounded by us, and you dare to challenge me. You really think I don't dare to attack!"
"Brothers, give me..."
"Boss, calm down!" The Silver Skull quickly stopped him, saying that the Third Bronze Skull was still in the opponent's hands, and asked him to calm down.
The Golden Skull took a few deep breaths and shouted to the Poseidon: "Robinson, right? I remember you, you are already surrounded by me, and you dare to challenge me, you are really smart!"
First officer Robinson looked at Ye Huan, not knowing how to respond.
"Stop talking nonsense."
"You have only two choices now. Either fire directly and sink the Poseidon, and all of us, including your brothers, will be buried in the sea. Or let's talk about the terms!"
Ye Huan whispered something, and the first mate Robinson repeated it.
Tsk!
Jin Skull was so angry that his heart, liver and lungs ached.
He really wanted to directly order the cannon to be fired, sink the Poseidon, and let that hateful first mate Robinson go to meet God, but in the end he held back.
Because the Copper Skull still has a group of brothers still on top.
Although Bronze Skull seeks his own death, if he just ignores his life and death and fires without any regard, his brothers will definitely be disappointed if he looks back.
We must rescue if we can.
Even if you can't rescue, you should at least show your attitude.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Jin Skull asked: "What do you want?"
"Let us leave. We will release your people five hundred nautical miles away from the port." First Mate Robinson said according to Ye Huan's instructions.
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me!"
"Then fire now, as long as you are willing to sacrifice the lives of these people, and as long as you are not afraid that the brothers around you will be disheartened and alienated from you!"
This time Ye Huan directly asked Robinson to alienate him, directly pointed out what Jin Skull was most worried about, and said it in public.
If Golden Skull refuses to agree and opens fire directly, he will be disregarding the lives of his brothers.
Although the people below may not dare to say anything in person, there is no guarantee that they will not have thoughts in their hearts.
This time, Golden Skull had no choice but to disagree. He gritted his teeth and said, "I can agree to your conditions and let you leave, but the distance from the port cannot be 500 nautical miles, at least 800 nautical miles!"
"OK!"
Ye Huan agreed.
He knew that the other party would definitely not let them go. The reason why he said this was just a delaying tactic. The purpose was not to get to the port, but to the archipelago.
Next, Ye Huan asked First Officer Robinson to continue sailing, but the route deviated slightly from the original route.
Three pirate ships followed at a distance.
Hundreds of sea miles away, on a battleship.
The general received the distress signal from the Poseidon, intercepted the signal immediately, and directly contacted the Golden Skull, "Golden Skull, a distress signal was sent from the Poseidon, and I intercepted it. What's the situation on your side?"
"We encountered slight resistance and have sunk the opponent's escort ship. The mission will be completed soon!" Golden Skull pretended to be relaxed and said, without telling the story of the Copper Skull being hijacked.
As a pirate group traveling across the sea.
Facing a luxury cruise ship like the Poseidon, he could actually be hijacked by the other party to hijack the three leaders. He couldn't say this at all. Well, Taite Niang's price has dropped.
I have been a pirate and have taken hostages all my life, but now I am being held hostage by someone else.
Don't let others laugh your teeth off.
If word spreads, the Skull Pirates will immediately become a laughing stock, and it will also affect the impression of their pirate group in the general's mind.
However, the general was not worried.
He directly invaded the network on the Skull Pirate Ship and quickly figured out the truth.
It was discovered that the Skull Pirates had dealt with the Poseidon and destroyed the Poseidon's four escort ships, but the subsequent script did not go as planned.
Golden Skull and others did not directly sink the Poseidon as promised.
After destroying the four escort ships of the Poseidon and taking complete control of the initiative, they did not pursue the victory but sent people aboard the Poseidon to plunder property.
If Jin Skull and others were not pirates and not soldiers under his command, he would have dealt with them directly through military law.
Knowing that the other party was a pirate, facing finances was like a cat meeting a fish or a dog meeting shit. It was difficult to resist the temptation, so he didn't say anything.
But soon, he lost his composure.
Because it was okay for the third captain, Copper Skull, to take his people aboard the Poseidon to rob the property. The worst thing would be to waste some time, but in the end, something unexpected happened and he was kidnapped.
Now that the Poseidon is threatening the lives of many pirates headed by him, the Golden Skull is ready to flee with his life in mind.
Farke!
Farke!
Farke!
The general cursed several times in succession, and his nose almost became crooked with anger.
He was ready to strangle the Golden Skeleton, wishing he could just scold him. Then he loudly ordered him to fire immediately and sink the Poseidon.
However, in the end he endured it.
Now is not the time to be angry, and he is not ready to apply pressure.
These pirates are simply unreliable. When he originally asked for cooperation, he was just looking for a cover-up. Now that the Skull Pirates have taken action, it doesn't matter whether they are present or not.
He thought for a while and directly issued an order: "Implement Plan B. Immediately send out warships to destroy the Poseidon. Together with the Skull Pirates, they will all be wiped out without leaving any one behind!"
