The pirates were kneeling on the ground, and their bodies and broken arms were scattered around their feet. The muzzles of the 153rd branch's Marines were faintly pointed at the 16th branch, and their blood-stained uniforms revealed a cold and ruthless determination.
Zango swung the circular saw in his hand, and the blood stained with it splashed out in an arc. A few drops of blood splashed on the distorted face of the adjutant. He stared angrily at the Marines of 153 Branch who were faintly surrounding him, and lowered his voice and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"These kneeling Fishman pirates are the prisoners of our 153 Branch. The 16th Branch will not be allowed to execute them for us," Zango replied coldly.
On the Battleship.
The Marine Lieutenant Colonel stared at Yarlin with a gloomy face. He looked at the military badge on Yarlin's shoulder, and his voice was full of cold killing intent: "Second Lieutenant, this is a group of Fishmen who should be torn to pieces. What's the point of keeping them alive if you don't kill them?"
Yarlin gently moved his arms and shoulders, squinted his eyes and looked at him. His eyebrows were gently raised and he said with a smile, "I don't know how to address you, Lieutenant Colonel?"
The Lieutenant Colonel looked at the smile on Yarlin's face and felt inexplicably irritated. He unbuttoned his jacket and said, "Sneti, you should call me Lieutenant Colonel Sneti."
Yarlin was still holding the black silk thread in his hand, and it was tightly wrapped around Arlong's neck. With the force of his hand, Arlong's whole face was blue and purple, and his mouth was gasping for breath. He stared at Sneti's constantly changing face and said, "Just killing those Fishman minions won't solve the problem. The life of Arlong, the leader of the Dragon Pirates, is still in my hands."
Sneti's face changed. He stared at Yarlin and said coldly, "What do you mean by that?"
"I've made myself very clear. Lieutenant Colonel, don't you understand?" Yarlin sneered and retracted his hand. He squatted down and rubbed the blood on Arlong's clothes. Then he slowly wrapped the white gloves around his hand and said, "The filth between the 16th Marine Branch and the Dragon Pirates … is really wonderful. Who would have thought that even the life of Captain Mouse would be lost in the end? I don't know if Captain Mouse is unlucky or the murlocs are too cruel. What do you think, Lieutenant Colonel Sneti?"
Snetty's face turned into the color of pig liver. He looked down at Arlong, who had fainted, and his teeth were in pain. "Arlong told you, bastard. These are all slander. They are all framed by the Dragon Pirates. Captain Mouse sacrificed himself heroically, and our 16th branch also …"
"Don't be in such a hurry to explain!" Yarlin waved his hand to interrupt Snetty's words. "I naturally don't believe the words of pirates, but if these rumors spread to the Headquarters, it's hard to guarantee that the Headquarters won't be confused, sigh …"
Snetty stared at Arlen for a full two minutes before letting out a deep sigh. "Second Lieutenant, what are you planning to do? You're not really planning to frame our 16th branch, are you?" "That's right," Arlen said.
"How can that be?"
Ya Erlin's lips curled into a grin as he let out a hearty laugh. With a flick of his foot, Arlong was flung into the air in a parabola.
Catching the fainted Arlong, Zangao pushed him to the two Marines next to him. He turned to look in the direction of Yarlin and heard the latter's laughter. "Clean up the battlefield!"
The Marines of the 153 Branch took back their guns and began to tie the captives with ropes and escort them to the Battleship. Some Marines began to clean up the bodies on the beach and separated the bodies of the Marines and pirates into sacks and boxes and dragged them back to the Battleship.
"In order to avoid the suspicion of the Headquarters, and to reduce some misunderstandings and conflicts between our two branches, I have some proposals for reporting to the Headquarters …" Yarlin turned back and smiled at Snetty. "Why don't we find a quiet place to discuss it?"
On the 153 Branch Battleship, in a separate and quiet cabin, there was a round table decorated with mahogany. There were two stacks of white paper on the round table. Snetty was sitting on a wooden chair beside the table with a pen in his hand. Sitting opposite him was Yarlin, who was holding a bottle of red wine in one hand and two wine glasses in the other.
"… Let's define this incident as the joint action of our two branches to eliminate the Fishman Pirates. In the battle, Captain Mouse unfortunately died, but the remaining Marines of the 16th and 153 Branch fought to the death. After a bloody battle, they finally wiped out the Dragon Pirates!"
"Lieutenant Colonel Snetty, you can emphasize your command. The report submitted by our Navy Branch 153 will also admit that after the death of Captain Mouse, the command of the next two branches will be taken over by Lieutenant Colonel Snetty. I think this credit can make up for the crime of Captain Mouse's death!" Yarlin opened the cork and poured red wine into the glass.
Snetty's face showed a stunned expression. Listening to Yarlin's words, the originally hazy face suddenly became better. He suspiciously asked, "So what does Navy Branch 153 want?"
"Emphasize that Navy Branch 153 suffered heavy losses in this battle, almost 70% of them were killed, and that Lieutenant Yarlin killed Arlong, the leader of the Dragon Pirates!" Yarlin's face showed a gloomy smile.
With Arlen's current rank, it was impossible for him to become the commander of the allied branch, and he didn't care about this empty title either. The greatest credit could be given to Sneti, and the remaining merit would be enough to ensure his promotion. What he hoped to do was to use this method that wasn't too abrupt, to appear in front of the headquarters in a brilliant but gradual manner. This way, he could minimize the possibility of suspicion.
"70% of them were killed?" Snetty's heart jumped slightly. Navy Branch 153 was inserted in the battle halfway, so the loss rate was at most 20%. He took a deep look at Yarlin, then nodded and said, "Okay, I will write the report like this. Is there anything else?"
"In this way, Lieutenant Colonel Snetty can very likely be promoted to the rank of Colonel and replace the dead Captain Mouse as the highest officer of the 16th branch!" Yarlin handed over the glass of red wine, and the glass gently clinked, "This is also what I want to see. I hope to gain the friendship of Colonel Snetty, and at the same time, Navy Branch 153 and the 16th branch will become the most solid allies!"
Snetty's cheeks twitched slightly. He took the glass, and the bright red wine reflected the obscure smile of the two men. Their eyes met in the air, and the scarlet wine was like blood turning their lips red.
Under the blood-stained sea, some bubbles emerged from the bottom of Navy Branch 153's warship, and murloc-like figures strangely stuck to the bottom of the ship and sailed away with the warship …
