The rain poured down, and the mud and stones on the mountain were washed down. Lombardi slipped and was supported by Kabar. He stood firm and his eyes flashed coldly under the lens.
"The Red Skull pirates and Tiago are having an internal strife!"
The bombardment from the pier at the foot of the mountain, the smashed and sunk merchant ships, and after the tragic boarding battle, the people of the Tiago Caravan were captured by the Red Skull Pirates. Lombardi and others saw it clearly from the mountain under the light of the exploding artillery fire.
"What's going on?" Kabar's mouth opened into a nest.
Lombardi's heart sank, and the rain blurred his eyes. He took a deep breath and trembled: "It's the Marine."
"What do you mean?" Kabar froze, and then suddenly realized what Lombardi meant. "You mean the Red Skull pirates were … subdued by the Marine?"
Obviously, his dictionary did not have such a rare and profound word like "enlistment".
"I can only think of this explanation." Lombardi's eyebrows twisted into a knot. The situation seemed that Tiago's caravan couldn't jump, and he and the Marine had reached an agreement, but his heart was strangely uneasy.
"Tiago can't even take care of himself. We are not in danger. Let's just watch the show." As he spoke, Ka Ba giggled and gestured with his mouth. Sure enough, Tiago's guards, who had been desperately chasing after them, stopped in their tracks and turned back the moment they heard the sound of the cannon.
"No, that's not right." Lombardi's expression became more and more dignified. His back was soaked with rain and his clothes stuck to his body. He looked at Kabar and said in a hoarse voice: "The Red Skull pirates clearly pointed their cannon at us. If we had just sailed out of the port, they wouldn't have hesitated to bombard us. Yes, that's it. The order of the Red Skull pirates was to block the island and not allow them to leave the port."
The sailors on the Sea Shark were also standing guard. They were quietly waiting for Lombardi to think of a result. Kabar no longer said anything. They had a tacit understanding. Lombardi was the smartest person on the ship. If he made a decision, they would execute it.
"Our Marine will ensure that the pirates in the surrounding sea will not set foot on this island to ensure that your plan can be carried out smoothly." These words appeared in Lombardi's mind. That man's demeanor and tone of voice all appeared before his eyes. His heart kept sinking.
"Yes, that's what I meant."
Lombardi's eyes widened. He saw that the Red Skull pirates didn't intend to go ashore after capturing the Tiago's men. They stayed motionless on the shore. Even if the Tiago's leader, Tunas, jumped off the ship and fled in the direction of the town, no one came down to pursue him.
Oh, there was Novi, but he was automatically ignored by Lombardi because he was alone.
"This is a situation that has been completely controlled, the pirates have not landed on the island, so it is impossible for the Marines to go ashore." Lombardi seemed to have finally figured out what the man was thinking. He murmured, "So, make sure that my plan is carried out smoothly."
"It's my plan, not our plan!"
Longbottom's teeth itched with hatred, and the corner of his mouth revealed a bitter self-deprecating smile. "Ridiculous, I actually tried to play some tricks. Arlen, that Marine, clearly wanted to seal off this island from the very beginning. He wanted me to carry out my plan meticulously."
"So, how did I come up with the plan? Oh, it's setting fire, creating chaos, and assassinating Tunas. Now the first two steps have been completed, and only the last step is left. You deliberately let Tunas go because of this, right?" Lombardi looked at the disappearing back of Tunas at the foot of the mountain. He had a deeper understanding of Yarlin.
"Yes, the entire Tiago caravan was destroyed. Tunas can't afford this loss. It's absolutely impossible for Tunas to return to the Chamber of Commerce to accept punishment. At this time, the Marine can choose to continue the original deal with me, or they can choose to subdue Tunas, a stray dog." The more Lombardi thought about it, the more his heart palpitated. "If all of this fell into the Marine's plan from the beginning, how terrifying is this person's mind?"
Lowering his head and spitting, Lombardi grinned and laughed. His laughter grew louder and louder, and the cold rain poured into his mouth. He took off the glasses on his face and threw them to the ground. He stepped on them and smashed them into pieces. He said vaguely, "This is a dog fight. Only one of the two dogs needs to survive. It's also dog training. Don't have any other thoughts in the dog's head."
"Lombardi?" Kabar had never seen Lombardi like this.
"A small heart is not a gentleman. A great man must not be ruthless!"
"A small heart is not a gentleman. A great man must not be ruthless!"
Lombardi repeated this sentence. This was what he had said in front of Yarlin. Now that he thought about it, that man's mind was vicious and ruthless. This sentence was more appropriate to describe him.
"Kabar, I'm fine." Lombardi turned his head. His bloodshot eyes flashed with madness. He said fiercely, "We have to kill Tunas. Only by killing him can we live."
"We're going to kill him?"
"Yes. Between us and Tunas, only one can survive." Lombardi waved his fist and punched the rain. He stared at everyone and said, "We have to kill him!"
"I understand!" Kabar stared at Lombardi's eyes. He took out a dagger from his chest and wrapped it with a bandage. He didn't ask any more questions.
The other sailors looked at each other. They also took out daggers from their chests. They tore a piece of cloth from their sleeves and wrapped the hilt of the dagger with their palms.
Although the merchant ship of Tiago had been destroyed and Tunas had become a homeless dog, there were still some of Tiago's guards in the town. Black Scorpion Lothar was still alive. Tunas's strength was not to be underestimated. The ten of them wanted to kill Tunas. Even if there were some merchant guards in the town who could be organized, everyone knew in their hearts that even if they won in the end, there would not be more than half of them left alive.
"This battle is either a life or death battle. Those who survive will be rich and powerful." Lombardi was the first to raise his sword and shout.
"Either a life or death battle, we will be rich and powerful!" The crowd roared.
No one mentioned what would happen if they died. The men who made a living on the sea had their heads hanging above their waistbands.
On the dock, on the ship.
A murderous roar pierced through the rain. The smell of blood on the pirate's body hadn't retreated. They all looked up and became restless.
"Don't get excited. They're not looking for us." Yarlin's eyes were playful, but his voice was indifferent.
"Oh?" Calci pressed his palm down, stopping the pirates from moving.
"Cooperation requires integrity. I, Yarlin, am a man of integrity. Therefore, when I promise someone something, I will do my best to do it. When someone promises me something, they must also do it." Yarlin's mouth slightly curved up, "I'll treat you to a good show."
"Well …" Calci swallowed his saliva. Looking at the strange smile on Yarlin's face, he felt an inexplicable chill.
