Facing the current chaos in Tortuga port, as well as the worry of the raiding team that was sent out, sending out a reinforcement team was the only choice that Ammand could be at ease with. But the ship still had Sheyan as an X factor! This was the biggest reason for Ammand's hesitation! To Ammand, Sheyan's ability was outstanding but he had yet to gain his complete trust. Not knowing why, Ammand's heart had a faint feeling: Sheyan was like a dangerous double-edged weapon. If used well, it would bring about huge damage to the enemy, but if not, it would instead hurt himself!
Now the problem facing Ammand was that he had to oversee the Bell and Mug, the captain. A captain without a ship was like a phoenix without its feathers. If anything were to happen to the ship, he would be like water without a source, a tree without roots. It was the same as handing over his fate to someone else. Furthermore, his chief officer Henry's head injury was not light, the only capable subordinate he could rely on was Sheyan. But if he used him, if he had other thoughts because of wealth ….. Blind Matt's prestige was lower than him, and Xiaer's battle prowess was not as strong as him, it would very likely lead to a loss of chicken and eggs, giving rise to a huge variable!
"Let me go! Sir, let me bring people to receive my brothers! "
Sheyan resolutely and decisively said.
He looked at Ammand's expressionless face, and continued seriously.
"Please believe me, even if I have to stake my life, I will definitely bring my brothers back safely! But if there is ….. an accident, please take good care of my brothers! "
The meaning behind Sheyan's words was very clear: I still have hostages on the ship! Even if you don't trust me, but the weight of a family member should be enough. If you still don't let me go, then there is no point in being suspicious to this extent, it is too disappointing.
If Chris was here, he would've immediately jumped up from his chair and started wailing. He would hug Ammand's thigh and request for a DNA test to confirm his relationship with Ammand. He would resolutely deny his relationship with Ammand!
However, this was a meeting of the Bell and Mug's upper management, and was rather secretive. Don't even mention Chris participating, even if he went near, he would be forced to retreat by the cold glint of the cutlass!
When Sheyan uttered those words, the veins on Ammand's forehead throbbed like a dragon raising its head! Sheyan's brother 'Chris' was extremely famous, his close relationship with Sheyan had long been publicized by this big mouth brat to the entire ship. Even the rats and cockroaches on the Bell and Mug should be familiar with this.
But to a sly old fox like Ammand, it was obvious that a relationship with words wasn't enough to gain his trust. Until someone reported that Chris had borrowed a huge sum of money from the ship under Sheyan's name, and Sheyan was actually willing to bear this sum of money that could cause one to lose one's family fortune without uttering a single word. Only now did Ammand truly believe that the two of them had an extraordinary relationship. In this world, the two things that could test a person's heart the most were life and death, and money.
Some generous and forthright people would become timid in the face of life and death, this was called sharing riches but not sharing trials and tribulations. Some people would be willing to sacrifice their lives for you, but could not withstand the corrosion of money, this was called valuing money over life. Ammand had seen too many ugly faces in the face of life and death and money, that was why he believed that Sheyan and Chris had a brotherly relationship that had passed the test of money.
But believing was one thing, trusting was another. Ammand placed his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth on the ship. His eyes flickered with a dangerous glint like a gambler, his body was shrouded in a particularly sinister aura.
In actual fact, ever since the incident at the port, Ammand's heart had already felt a grave sense of crisis lingering in his heart. Therefore, even though Sheyan had already created a situation where he had no choice but to be deployed, Ammand's expression remained solemn as he continued muttering to himself.
At this moment, the cabin door creaked open, a tall and sturdy figure appeared in front of everyone. His bald head was wrapped in a white cloth, it was Ammand's most trusted chief officer, Scarface Harry. Although his complexion looked dispirited, his body emitted a valiant and tyrannical aura.
"I'll accompany Seaman Yan! At least we can take care of each other. "
Scarface Harry was Ammand's most trusted aide, if he was willing to accompany Sheyan, then he would naturally be at ease and would no longer have any doubts. But Ammand looked at the white cloth wrapped around Harry's head, and the dense blood vessels in his eyes, he couldn't help but hesitate.
"But your injury … …"
Scarface Harry looked fine in front of others, but only Ammand and himself knew that his injury had not improved at all. Ever since Scarface Harry's head injury, his injury had been fluctuating, and even showed signs of worsening. In a place where there was no one, Scarface Harry would vomit many times, his headache felt like someone was stirring his insides with a knife. Using the real world's diagnosis methods, it should be a severe concussion that led to the repercussions.
Scarface Harry could also see Ammand's misgivings, a silver glow flickered on his body, forcing himself to smile.
"This time's operation will definitely be led by our crew head, I'm just relying on my experience of living for a few years to move my mouth."
Scarface Harry spoke very modestly, but actually he was conveying his own intentions to Ammand.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to supervise that kid, he'll be the one risking his life. If he dares to make any strange moves, I'll just move my mouth and order my men to annihilate him."
Ammand turned his head to look at the raging flames of Tortuga port, at this moment he could almost confirm that Xiaer and the rest had met with a huge problem, if not Blind Matt would have at least sent someone back to report. He looked at Scarface Harry, making a decision, nodding his head.
"Good! With the two of you going, I'm relieved. "
After finishing this sentence, Ammand unsheathed the silver rapier on his waist, tossing it towards Scarface Harry along with its scabbard.
"Catch! I'm absolutely safe on the ship, I don't need this thing, but you guys can use it at crucial times. "
Scarface Harry caught it, nodding his head slightly. Ammand took out his rapier not to guard against Sheyan, but because he was afraid that Xiaer, who had the same prestige as Harry, would make any strange moves. As a pirate captain with an exceedingly high prestige, his personal sword could naturally be used as a token during crucial moments, to intimidate and subdue those pirates with ulterior motives. This logic sounded absurd, but in fact it was similar to ancient China, where a weak and powerless civil official could directly enter an army camp with an imperial edict, and take away the life of a brave general who could not withstand ten thousand men.
Sheyan stood by the side watching the performance of these two close buddies, his expression turned solemn. Scarface Harry's following was obviously out of his expectations. Truthfully speaking, this guy's high 30 points of physique made Sheyan extremely fearful, because 30 points of physique not only brought about high HP, it also brought about high defence!
Moreover, Scarface Harry's known ability was' First Mate's Heart ', which gave the user an additional 1000 HP. That faint silver glow on his body was extremely eye-catching, it was probably some powerful equipment. If Scarface Harry equipped another title, it would be even more perverse. In this battle, if Sheyan wanted to fish in troubled waters, he had to end the battle quickly. But with such a guy by his side, then many plans would have to be scrapped.
The only good news was that Scarface Harry's head was injured, and it seemed to be quite serious.
The reinforcements were quickly confirmed and dispatched. Learning from the previous lesson, Ammand was extremely confident in Sheyan's ability to command and dispatch. Therefore, this time the Bell and Mug could be considered to be in full strength. On Ammand's side, he only left behind 20 people, most of them were old and weak. Their only purpose was to smoothly sail the Bell and Mug out of the port.
Looking at the distant fleet of pirates disembarking, as well as Sheyan and Scarface Harry at the front of the fleet. Ammand's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold glint, he waved his hand to call over his second mate Robben, calmly ordering.
"Choose four people and keep an eye on Kerry. Once this guy makes any strange movements, immediately capture him and bring him to me. Remember, I want him alive, but if he escapes, you guys can forget about living. " “
Robben nodded his head repeatedly under Ammand's intense gaze, in fear and trepidation. Ammand calmly continued.
"You must remember, you are the second mate of the Bell and Mug, don't forget your status. “
After Robben heard this, he bent his waist even lower, almost kneeling down to express his loyalty. Ammand was obviously very satisfied with the result of his words, waving his hand to signal him to leave. Currently, the remaining people on the ship may not have enough strength, but they were all Ammand's old crew, their loyalty was unquestionable. When Xiaer and the rest were on the ship, Ammand's control over the entire ship was only 70%, but now it could be said to be 100%! Under such circumstances, Ammand was confident that even if Sheyan stayed behind, he would not be able to create any waves, what more that weak and pitiful Chris?
.....
Who dares to say that Xiao Fang did not know how to scheme? How many people thought of Chris's usefulness? Wahaha, but let me tell you, don't think that this is Xiao Fang's entire scheme.
