Ling Zhenfei said, "I don't want to get involved in your Moergawa matters. I just want to rescue my friend and leave, so I want you to take to Nakajima, how about it?"
Zhang Bin said, "No problem, Brother Ling. Although we've been away from Huaxia for hundreds of years, Huaxia blood runs in our veins; we're all family."
Ling Zhenfei thought to himself, you never ntioned us being family before. If I weren't strong, I'd have been captured long ago.
"So, shall we go now? I'm really in a hurry." Ling Zhenfei truly felt anxious.
Zhang Bin said, "That won't work, the fight is intense right now, if we go at night we might get caught in the crossfire."
It was true; at night, accidents were more likely. It wasn't the ti to be rash.
Ling Zhenfei said, "What should we do during such a late hour then?"
Zhang Bin said, "Since you're in Moergawa, why not let us play host to you at our place?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a mont; he indeed didn't have anywhere else to go at night, so he agreed.
Zhang Bin and company imdiately set off, taking Ling Zhenfei towards Moergawa.
The two ships followed from behind; everyone who had fallen into the water was rescued, which was a relief as no one went missing.
These pirates were forr fishern; drowning them wasn't easy.
Steering the ship, Ling Zhenfei talked with them, learning a lot about their situation, such as about their lives on the Outer Islands.
Zhang Bin and Li Wu didn't hold high positions; most of these pirates were villagers from their town, mostly fishern, so their combat abilities weren't strong.
According to them, Gu Feng, though having so military background, wouldn't be a pirate. It's outrageous to think of a regular army acting as pirates.
Zhang Bin said, "To be honest, Brother Ling, although people say Outer Islanders have turned to piracy, Gu Feng hasn't.
He didn't need to turn pirate with his savings. They rely charge a protection, or escort fee, to large rchant ships or passing cruise liners, which makes them much more money than us."
Ling Zhenfei laughed, "What's the difference between the two?"
Li Wu laughed and said, "Of course, there's a difference. We're just doing small-scale stuff, while they are collecting these fees legitimately. Although Gu Feng is familiar with us, he doesn't allow us to cause trouble and sotis scolds us."
It seed Gu Feng was a decent sort; knowing the limits of what to do and not do.
They chatted cheerfully on the ship, feeling quite friendly despite not knowing each other long.
Just then, soone rushed over, saying to Zhang Bin, "Boss, sothing's wrong, the General is here."
Zhang Bin was a bit frightened and quickly said, "Run, turn around and run, make sure not to get caught."
The person hurriedly ran out, and soon after, they felt the ship change direction and speed up.
Ling Zhenfei asked, "What do you an, what's happening?"
Zhang Bin said, "Speak of the devil, it's the boss."
Ling Zhenfei realized it was Gu Feng who had co.
"If Gu Feng's here, then he's here. Why are you so scared?"
Li Wu said, "You don't understand, because the fight is intense, Gu Feng has forbidden us from going to sea. If we're caught, we'll surely be scolded again."
Ling Zhenfei found it amusing; it felt a bit like playing house.
A mont later, soone rushed in again and shouted, "It's bad, boss, we can't escape anymore."
As soon as he spoke, Ling Zhenfei felt the ship make slight noises like sothing was caught, and Zhang Bin and Li Wu also sensed it, their faces changing.
"Oh no, now we are going to be criticized again, Brother Ling. When the boss asks, just say you're our friend, and we went out to sea to greet you, please."
Ling Zhenfei was shocked, wondering what kind of person Gu Feng was that made the two brothers fear him so much.
Suddenly Ling Zhenfei felt the ship stabilize, almost as if it had docked firmly.
Then, the entire ship started to lift upwards; Ling Zhenfei was shocked as he saw a giant appear beside the ship.
It was a roughly hundred-ter-long battleship, like a huge dark steel dragon, very intimidating. This pirate ship looked tiny beside it.
Ling Zhenfei then felt his ship begin to rise, leaving the water and ascending into the air.
It turned out that hooks from the battleship snagged the pirate ship and were pulling it upwards.
Soon the pirate ship was level with the battleship; from there, the deck was brightly lit with ard personnel standing on it.
Their uniforms differed in professionalism; their military uniforms were neat and of good quality, and their automatic weapons vastly outstripped those of the pirates.
Soone shouted from up top, "Everyone inside, co out."
Zhang Bin and Li Wu looked at Ling Zhenfei and said, "Brother Ling, let's go out."
Ling Zhenfei nodded and followed Zhang Bin and Li Wu out, stepping onto a battleship for the first ti, yet feeling like a captured prisoner.
The three walked down, followed by so of Zhang Bin and Li Wu's n, who didn't dare resist; resistance would an certain death.
Suddenly soone shouted, "Bring those few over here."
The voice ca from behind the crowd, which parted to reveal soone sitting amid the ship waiting for them.
Ling Zhenfei and the others were led over to find soone in a different military uniform sitting there, a man in his thirties with a serious face full of authority.
Zhang Bin and Li Wu called out, "Brother Feng, it's us."
Gu Feng looked at Zhang Bin and Li Wu with anger, "It's you again, didn't I tell you no sailing for now? What are you up to, seeking rebellion?"
Zhang Bin smiled and said, "Brother Feng, what are you saying? We wouldn't ignore your words. We were out not gathering goats; we ca to pick up a friend."
Gu Feng said, "Which friend did you co to pick up?"
Zhang Bin pointed to Ling Zhenfei and said, "This Brother Ling is a friend from Huaxia, we ca to pick him up."
