The path of the iceberg was wide, and the underwater iceberg was so large that the current pushed it over a wider area.
Large pieces of broken ice fell into the sea. Because of their light mass, they flowed faster than the main body of the iceberg. Pushed by the current and the wind, they surged forward quickly and continuously.
Most of the icebergs did not hit the pirate ship, but there were too many broken pieces of ice, and there were bound to be a few.
The pirate ship was not a small boat, but the ice was not small, and because of its high density and mass, the impact on the pirate ship was also great.
This was going to be interesting. After the Ice Sea Narwhal picked up Brother Wolf and the other three, Li Du directed the captain to sail back to watch the fun.
The captain said worriedly, "What if they fix the engine?"
Li Du laughed. "Don't worry, that's impossible. Do you know how powerful a grenade is? Go back and watch the show. It's a rare show for us! "
The crew also wanted to see the show, and they all urged the captain:
"Captain, don't be afraid, the iceberg is about to pass. They can't repair the ship in such a short time."
"Hurry up, I want to take a video. Ha, the iceberg hitting the ship, the Titanic!"
"Those poor bastards, we have to witness this. Let those damned pirates go to hell!"
"God bless them, God punish them!"
Seeing this, the captain gritted his teeth and said, "Well, let's go back, let's witness the process of God punishing the wicked!"
Seeing the Ice Sea Narwhal approaching, the pirates on the pirate ship waved anxiously and roared at the top of their lungs.
Because they were shouting in Russian, Li Du could not understand what they were saying, but he could guess that they were asking for help.
The main body of the iceberg floated slowly, but it kept moving forward and gradually approached the pirate ship.
From the water, the iceberg could not hit the pirate ship, and there was still a distance of a few hundred meters between the two sides.
However, the iceberg was too large underwater, and a few hundred meters was not enough. The area where the pirate ship was was within the range of the underwater iceberg, and once the two sides met, the iceberg would definitely hit them!
The Ice Sea Narwhal turned a blind eye to the pirates' frantic calls for help. They stopped when they were still a few kilometers away from the pirate ship and watched the show.
The captain said, "According to the law of sea rescue, we should help them."
Steve said impatiently, "You're such a nice guy. The rules of rescue at sea don't apply to pirates."
Young Ford added, "Besides, even if it's applicable, we have to wait until the pirate ship sinks. The pirate ship is still floating on the surface of the sea. Why would we need it?"
The captain remained silent and drew a cross on his chest.
Li Du said, "You don't have to feel bad about it. We can help them. Come, call the local marine police and tell them that a pirate ship is about to hit an iceberg. Let them think of a way to rescue them."
Steve shook his head and said, "They are looking for trouble, man. There are traces of grenades being used on the ship. The marine police will not let us off."
Li Du spread his hands and said, "Can't we just hide our weapons? As for the grenade? Who had ever seen a grenade? Who used a grenade? We're just a group of adventurers. How could we have grenades? Only pirates have grenades, right? Or who would believe a pirate's words? "
As they discussed, Iceberg finally approached the pirate ship.
The pirates watched in despair as the iceberg approached slowly. Some of them hurriedly found a lifeboat and tried to escape.
However, there was only one lifeboat on the pirate ship. They came out to plunder, not to escape. Therefore, there were rarely lifeboats on the ship.
The lifeboat could only carry four or five adults at most, and there were at least twenty men on board. They could not all sit on it, so they had to fight for a limited number of seats.
Long Hair threw away his mask and wanted to go up, but at this critical moment, his men no longer recognized him as their boss. They shouted, "Why should you go up first?" "You are the one who led us to this dead end!" "You are the captain, you are the boss. If the ship sinks, you should go down with it!"
Long Hair was furious. He pulled out his gun to intimidate his men, but he only had a pistol. His men also raised their guns, many of them with rifles.
Long Hair was caught in a dilemma. He did not dare to shoot. If his men opened fire on him, he would be in trouble. However, if he put away his gun, he would lose all his dignity.
He was caught between a rock and a hard place. Fortunately, he was quick-witted. When he turned around and saw the inflatable lifeboat, he fired at it. Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
"This time, no one can leave." Long Hair grinned.
The iceberg hit, and as its main body approached, the water flowed abnormally on both sides. Then, with a loud bang, the pirate ship shook wildly like a bumper car.
The pirates grabbed hold of things around them to keep themselves in place. Those who could not hold on were rolling on the deck.
The impact of the iceberg was so strong that the people on board were pale with fright.
After a series of collisions, the pirate ship tilted to one side, but it was not overturned or smashed.
The underwater part of the iceberg was extremely large. It was uneven and controlled the bottom of the pirate ship, which meant that the pirate ship was stuck directly at the bottom of the iceberg.
To the pirates, this was already the best outcome. If the ship was smashed or overturned, they might die without a complete corpse!
Watching the iceberg take the pirate ship away, Li Du and the others were amazed. It was a rare sight.
The coast guard helicopter appeared in the sky, and Li Du waved and said, "Let's go."
If he continued to stay here, he would only be causing more trouble.
The Ice Sea Narwhal continued northeast. The rest of the journey was smooth, but it was a long one. According to the captain's estimate, they would be at sea for four days and four nights.
It was boring at sea, and the group played cards and games besides reading books and reading materials.
Steve and the Ford brothers had prepared enough things to pass the time, but Li Du was not interested. He thought it was a waste of time to play with these things, although their purpose was to waste time.
Floating on the sea was not idle. There were fishing rods and nets on board, and they could catch fish.
Li Du took Brother Wolf and the others and decided to catch fish, then freeze them or make them into dried fish to eat on the island.
Severnaya Zemlya was short of supplies and there was no place to replenish them. It was conceivable that the day they landed on the island would be the day they began to suffer.
The temperature of the Arctic Ocean was low, and there were relatively few fish resources. However, it was the least polluted place in the world, and the fish, shrimp, and crabs were exceptionally clean.
Moreover, the seafood that grew up in this cold water was particularly delicious. It grew slowly and had a high fat content. The end result was a good taste.
