"Adrian Desmond, you could easily live off your looks, yet you insist on relying on your talent—what a waste of that face."
Noah thought: If I had Adrian Desmond’s face, it wouldn’t be such a hassle to win over Joanna.
Adrian Desmond saved the recording and said to Noah, "You can leave now."
"I need Joanna again tonight, or I won’t help you!" Noah, having tasted the sweetness, made another demand of Adrian Desmond.
"Noah, are you going to break the agreent?" Adrian Desmond eyed Noah disdainfully, questioning him.
Their original agreent was not like this.
Noah knew his suggestion violated the agreent, "I can pay you with gold and gems instead!"
Adrian Desmond sneered, "Do you think I lack gold and gems?"
"What do you want in exchange, then?"
"We’ve already made the exchange! Noah, if you break the agreent, the Almighty Anna will punish you."
Noah was a devout follower of the ****** faith, believing in Almighty Anna, and as such, he could not break his oaths.
"What a pity." Noah, seeing Adrian Desmond unmoved, chuckled lightly and got up from the bed.
"If you like her so much, why not pursue her openly?"
"I’ve tried every thod, to no avail." Noah’s gaze fixed on Adrian Desmond’s face, "If I had your face, I wouldn’t need to pursue."
"Then just give up!"
Noah: ...

Adrian Desmond, Joanna, and Noah gathered to discuss cutting off Death Island’s supplies.
Years ago, when Adrian Desmond left, Death Island had about 750 people. As ti passed, Adrian Desmond didn’t know how far Night Owl had developed the island.
Let’s assu 750 people; the daily consumption for these people isn’t a small number. One of Adrian Desmond’s plans is to cut off all supplies to the island, truly making it Death Island.
"...The location of Death Island is approximately here. It’s surrounded by reefs, making it impossible for large ships to dock. The ships on Death Island are all dium-sized. Our goal is to cut this supply line."
"I have a question. With so many ships passing through the Red Sea daily, how do we identify Night Owl’s?" Joanna suddenly asked.
"Night Owl’s ships will always fly a black banner with an owl. If you see a ship with a black owl banner, intercept it!"
"What if we intercept a few tis and Night Owl gets clever, removing the owl banner, then what?"
Adrian Desmond coldly replied, "Night Owl is extrely arrogant. Knowing full well you’re raiding his fleet, he won’t remove his banner. However, at that ti, you must be cautious as Night Owl might attack you."
Noah and Joanna’s expressions turned solemn.
Speaking of which, they both had grudges with Night Owl; Joanna’s husband, Noah’s brother, died at Night Owl’s hands.
"My brother was killed like this." Noah’s sorrowful expression mingled with anger.
"..."
"I fear no Night Owl! I will avenge Marcos!" Noah, with determination, clenched his fists.
They were pirates rampaging through Kalare. Back then, Marcos seized Night Owl’s ship, and Night Owl sent assassins to kill him.
After Marcos’ death, Noah was adamant about revenge, while Joanna chose to swallow her pride due to Night Owl’s vast influence, ultimately splitting Marcos’ forces between herself and Noah.
Seeing Joanna’s hesitation, Adrian Desmond said, "You can only partner with ! You both are in the way. Your position is like choking Night Owl’s throat; how can he let both of you continue to exist?
Regardless of whether you seek revenge, sooner or later, Night Owl will eliminate you.
Rather than wait for that, it’s better to strike first."
As expected of a woman, cowardly as a mouse!
Even pushed to this point, she hesitates!
Adrian Desmond internally thought of Joanna with disdain, his natural masculine arrogance driving him to believe Joanna was unfit to lead an ard force.
Adrian Desmond’s gaze fell to Noah, contemplating if he should help Noah absorb Joanna’s forces!
He certainly did not want to deal with won!
"But over the years, haven’t we been safe?"
Adrian Desmond looked at the foolish Joanna, "So what?"
"Joanna, Marcos died unjustly; don’t you want to avenge him?" Noah questioned a retreating Joanna, "After all these years, during your revels, did you think of my brother’s grievance?"
"Noah, since I’ve promised Adrian Desmond, I’ll certainly fulfill it! As for avenging your brother, go seek revenge yourself!" Joanna coldly replied.
Adrian Desmond refrained from their family disputes.
"I’ll leave 500 n on your island. They will assist you in intercepting Night Owl’s supply ships. However, during the operation, you must absolutely adhere to 001’s commands."
Adrian Desmond called, "001, co in!"
A tall man entered, muscles all over, making Joanna’s eyes sparkle with pink stars, while Noah muttered discontentedly.
"He is 001!"
"..."
"001, these are Joanna and Noah. During the operation, if they don’t follow commands, teach them a harsh lesson!" Adrian Desmond ordered.
"Yes, Sixth Master!" 001 replied expressionlessly.
Joanna’s gaze fell to 001’s crotch and giggled, while Noah’s face turned black.
Having laid out all the instructions, Adrian Desmond also planned to leave to find rcer as cutting off Death Island’s supplies required rcer’s help.
Adrian Desmond didn’t know rcer.
Only heard he was a man with a penchant for handso n and exceptionally ruthless thods.
"If you have any questions, you can communicate with 001! 001 will assist you in raiding Night Owl’s ships. I promise all the cargo on the ships will be yours! Every ship you intercept, I will provide equivalent rewards."
This condition was already generous, and even the hesitant Joanna was tempted. After all, her subordinates all needed to eat.
"Sixth Master, there’s no need for courtesy between us." Joanna winked at Adrian Desmond, while he acted like he saw nothing.
"I should go."
Joanna, like she had no bones, imdiately sat up when hearing Adrian Desmond was leaving, "It’s so soon? Stay a few more days."
"Noah, let’s go." Adrian Desmond urged the reluctant Noah.
Noah looked at Joanna, sighed, and followed Adrian Desmond to leave, "rcer is a big demon, don’t bla for not warning you."
"Even if he has three heads and six arms, I need to et him."
"Why are you so determined to eliminate Night Owl? What’s your grudge?"
"He seduced my wife!"
Noah: ...
