At the base of the 78th branch of the North Sea Navy, a greasy middle-aged man pushed open the office door and walked in.
It was obvious that he was not a navy, but he walked to a navy general with a swaying look and sat down, with his legs resting on the table without any image.
The admiral was Major General Luce, the base chief of this base.
Luce seemed to have become accustomed to the arrival of the middle-aged man, so he just raised his head and looked at the other person lightly.
A hint of disgust appeared in my eyes not easily noticed.
He said to the middle-aged man: "Arnold, how many times have I told you that you don't come here if you have nothing to do. If you know that you and I can't eat it."
"Don't say that!"
"I'm just here to thank my old friends."
"If it weren't for your help over the years, my business wouldn't have been going so well."
The middle-aged man named Arnold didn't care about Luce's words at all, but instead had an unknown smile on his lips.
"Hmph, do you think I don't know you?"
"Your power has been developing over the years and is not small in the underground world."
"But you are cheating me on the surface."
As he said that, Luce showed severe anger.
"Major General Luce, I'm wronged!"
Arnold said as if he was a victim.
"Hmph, I often see public help branches in the areas under my jurisdiction."
"It is said that there are gangs who charge a large amount of money as protection fees. Do you think I don't know that those gangs are your people?"
Luce looked at Arnold with anger.
"Haha, I thought it was something that was a big deal, it turned out to be this."
Arnold chuckled and then said, "My power needs to continue to expand and requires a lot of funds. There are many wealthy people in the surrounding islands, so I can only do this."
"Besides, a little pirate pops up from time to time, haven't I sent someone to solve it?"
"This has also helped you."
"you..."
Luce wanted to scold him angrily when she heard this, but she was interrupted before she could speak.
Arnold approached Luce and said in a voice that two people could hear: "Also, I have paid a lot of taxes to you in the past few years."
When Luce heard this, he was speechless and could only suppress his anger.
"snort"
Luce snorted coldly, then stopped caring about Arnold, but looked at the document below.
Brublu
At this time, the phone bug on Arnold's body suddenly rang.
Arnold slowly took out the phone bug and started to connect.
"Hey, I'm Arnold."
"Chief, something happened."
A panic sound came from the other end of the phone bug.
Arnold frowned and then said, "Let's talk about it later."
He hung up the phone after saying a word, then looked at Luce and said, "Sorry, Major General, I'll leave first if I have something to do."
After saying that, Arnold left without looking back.
....
After leaving the Navy branch, Arnold took out the phone bug again: "Say, what happened."
"Report to the leader, our boss Byrne was killed on his way to collect protection fees."
"The leader wants to avenge us!"
The crying sound came from the phone bug.
"Who did it?"
Arnold looked a little unhappy. Death of an insignificant little brother was nothing. The most important thing was that no one in this area knew that he was behind these gangs.
Even if I don’t know, I know that there is a force that is not easy to mess with to support it.
He couldn't help but wonder if the forces that had business dealings with him were stabbing him in the back and provoking him.
"I, I don't know who they are."
"They have three of them, and one of them has a child."
"By the way, one of them is wearing a mask."
The person on the other side of the phone bug replied truthfully.
"mask?"
Arnold showed a thoughtful expression when he heard this, and then he seemed to think of something and said something to his younger brother and hung up the phone.
"Mask, is it him?"
Arnold said to himself.
....
The hot and dazzling sun hangs high, which is originally a refreshing sea breeze, but it blows past your face but makes people feel extremely hot.
On the rugged sea, a ship was parked steadily here.
Little Carl was sweating heavily on the deck, constantly waving his wooden knife. Even if the sun was particularly hot today, he didn't want to give up.
Aits lay naked on a recliner, pointing at Carl's sword swing and some sword skills from time to time.
And Hit was fishing boredly with a fish hook along the side of the boat?
There was no way, and the sea beasts couldn't meet them, and they had no money to go to the nearby town for dinner, so they could only fish here.
Originally, there were a lot of food prepared by Bijil in the warehouse, but unfortunately they were eaten up by three of them in a few days.
Aits was speechless. He was probably the worst swordsman.
At this moment, a small black dot appeared not far ahead of them. As the black dot continued to magnify, you could clearly see a sailboat coming slowly.
"Boss, it seems like a ship is coming in our direction."
Hit stood up and said to Aits.
"I saw it."
Aits said, but still had no intention of getting up.
As time goes by, the ships slowly approach, and the two ships remained equal, only a few centimeters apart.
A middle-aged man walked out of the cabin and then jumped onto Aits' ship.
Hit just glanced at him and continued his fishing career. After all, the boss was here, so he couldn't make any big fuss even if he was here.
After getting on board, the middle-aged man slowly walked to Aits and smiled: "Your Excellency, our leader sent me to send you a sincere invitation."
Aits lay on the lounge chair without saying anything, as if he had not heard the person coming.
The middle-aged man felt embarrassed when he saw the other party ignore him, but he was still not dissatisfied with what the leader said.
"Don't get me wrong, we have no malice."
"Who is your leader?"
Aits said slowly without even looking at him.
"Arnold, the gang leader you killed before is one of us."
The middle-aged man said truthfully.
Aites's mouth curled up with a playful curve: "So, are you trying to take revenge?"
When the middle-aged man heard this, he shook his head: "No, that idiot Byrne hit you and died, but my leader wants to see you and have a deep communication."
In-depth communication?
Aites sneered on the corner of his mouth. He probably sent someone to invite him when he knew who he was.
OK, go and see what the other party is doing.
"Since that's the case, what's the point of going to see it."
No matter what the other party's purpose is, Aites is not afraid of it. He is just a conspiracy and trick.
The middle-aged man was delighted when he heard this and immediately said to Aits: "Your Excellency will follow my ship."
After saying that, he was like turning back to his own ship.
"etc."
But Aits stopped him at this time.
"Is there anything else that you have?"
“Is there anything to eat?”
Chapter completed!
