At that time, Phantom chose to board Naka's pirate ship because she was forced to do so. Only she knew what she had experienced. If she didn't find a place to rest and recuperate, what awaited her would be death.
At that time, Phantom had no choice. This was the only path. However, because Naka's ship was a pirate ship, Phantom was still very vigilant. After boarding the ship, she used her innate concealment skills to hide in a place where no one could find her.
This really puzzled everyone on Naka's ship. She disappeared after a meal, and she didn't even take away her boat. Could it be that she jumped into the sea? This matter also puzzled Naka for a long time, but it was already in the past, and they quickly forgot about it.
However, when Naka and the others docked the next day, Phantom appeared again. Only then did Naka realize that this person had actually been on the ship all this time. It seemed that he was deliberately hiding and had some concerns about them. Having this ability is also an ability, Naka appreciated it very much.
Phantom, who hadn't eaten for another day, had to show up because she needed to replenish her food. After their ship docked, all the ingredients were taken away, so if Phantom didn't come out again, there would be nothing to eat. However, her sudden appearance definitely shocked the group of people present in Naka. A woman had been on the ship for an entire day, and none of them had noticed. It was simply too inconceivable. Just based on this, Naka also had a whole new level of respect for Phantom. He immediately ordered his subordinates to entertain Phantom with good wine and good food.
Naka still didn't say anything when he entertained Phantom. He just let her eat and drink to her heart's content, treating this place as his own home. After being replenished, Phantom disappeared again. No one could find her even when she was on a ship, let alone on such a big island.
Naka's subordinates were also very surprised. They all expressed their desire to find someone, and Naka didn't stop them. However, after searching, no one could detect her figure. Later, everyone even thought that she had left.
However, Naka didn't believe that she had left. What kind of place was this? It was impossible for anyone to leave under his nose.
A day later, he prepared wine and food again. Sure enough, Phantom appeared again. At this time, Naka had basically determined Phantom's identity. For the past few days, Phantom had been recuperating. Other than when she came out to eat, she had been hiding in a place where no one could see her.
After a few days of adjustment, Phantom had also recovered her Qi, blood, and physical strength. At this time, she expressed her gratitude to Naka and requested to leave. Naka revealed her identity, which made Phantom, who couldn't lie, completely speechless.
After confirming that Phantom was from the Shadow Clan, Naka naturally wouldn't let her leave. However, Naka wouldn't shed all pretense of cordiality. He tried to negotiate with Phantom to let her stay and assist him, but Phantom refused.
This made Naka very dissatisfied, so Naka directly ordered people to control Phantom and lock her in a sealed secret room. Someone would take turns to stare at her 24 hours a day without blinking. This way, it would be impossible for Phantom to disappear again!
How precious is a Shadow Clan member? Naka will never give up on a talent like this.
He believed that if he used the same method to torture people, sooner or later, this Shadow Clan member would give up resisting and become a valiant general by his side. If Phantom hadn't met Xu Yun, she might have really agreed. There was no loss to her.
But now, it was impossible for Phantom to agree. She still had the mission that Xu Yun had given her. She still had to complete what Xu Yun needed her to do, so she absolutely couldn't agree to Naka's request.
Phantom lived in a small circle that only belonged to her. Although she belonged to this era, she had no other contact with it. She didn't know what a lie was, what perfunctory was, and she didn't know what a scheme was, so she wouldn't deceive him.
Therefore, she wouldn't even be perfunctory with Naka. She had tried to resist, but in the face of Naka, she was still subdued and imprisoned. After all, Naka's strength was not simple. To be able to exchange so many blows with Xu Yun, there was no chance of winning if Phantom fought him head-on.
This was the second day that Phantom had been locked up. She had been thinking about how to escape from this place. When she really couldn't think of any way, she felt that familiar aura. That's right, just like how Xu Yun and Lin Ge could feel her existence, she could clearly feel the appearance of Xu Yun and Lin Ge.
Phantom instantly became enlightened. She never thought that Xu Yun and Lin Ge would actually appear here!
Finally, the secret room was opened, and Naka personally unlocked Phantom's shackles and handcuffs. He was reluctant to part with this Shadow Clan member, but if he used her in exchange for the Sharks' calamity today, Naka still had nothing to struggle about.
"Although I've been imprisoning you for the past two days, that's because I had no choice. I just wanted you to join me." Naka said, "But now that someone is looking for you, I don't have the ability to keep you … But to be honest, I've always treated you well, haven't I?"
Phantom didn't say anything, and her eyes were empty, as if there was nothing in them.
"Forget it …" Naka sighed, "Just pretend I didn't say anything. If you hate me, your friend is outside. If he wants to change his mind, he can kill me at any time."
"He won't." Phantom turned around and left after saying this. This was her reward for Naka's hospitality.
No matter what, at least Phantom didn't bite the hand that fed her. Naka had helped her, but he had also locked her up, so they were even. Phantom wasn't an overbearing person, and Xu Yun wasn't an overbearing person either.
Even if Naka was a bastard, even if he did it unintentionally, or if he had other motives, he had still helped Phantom when she was in danger. Just based on this, Xu Yun would definitely leave Naka a way out, not to mention there were other reasons.
Seeing Phantom's figure, the dark cloud that had been covering Xu Yun's heart completely dissipated.
It didn't matter if there was still no news or clues from that damned Martifran Island, as long as Phantom was safe, that was good. In the end, Xu Yun gave Naka a sincere thank you. But after this, they had nothing to do with each other.
If he were to encounter Naka again, Xu Yun would definitely not show mercy. Naka was not in the mood to think about Xu Yun. He couldn't recruit such a person. Even if he did, he would have the ability to overpower his master. He couldn't raise such a subordinate. Sooner or later, he would be trampled under his feet.
Qiu Heng evacuated Naka's lair as agreed, giving Naka a chance to breathe. Naka, who had suffered a great loss of vitality, also needed some time to recuperate. He believed that this matter would soon spread, and then his Baijing Regiment's reputation would be even greater than the Sharks Clan's.
Hmph … Naka smiled bitterly. At this time, he was still thinking about his bullshit reputation. It was better to be practical. He could still live. The Sharks Clan hadn't been exterminated yet. That was already burning incense. He decided to pack up and leave the island overnight. He couldn't stay in this place any longer.
Once someone could break through here, he was worried that the people from the Ancient Magpie World would take advantage of this and directly give him a heavier blow. Therefore, Naka decided to hide for a while and recuperate. Only then would he have a chance to make a comeback. Otherwise, the Sharks Clan would really be destroyed in his hands.
Facts proved that his decision was correct. The Ancient Magpie World who knew about this immediately arranged for Lone Wolf to bring people to suppress him again. But Naka escaped early, and Lone Wolf Tang Yipeng directly pounced on empty air.
