"Report..."
Crash!
The palace gates of the Central Kingdom were suddenly pushed open from the outside.
The loud noise caused the clamor within the palace to pause for a moment.
"Hahaha! You're still as reckless as ever, kid!"
A pirate, swaying his body, a wine bottle in hand, walked up to the small subordinate standing at the entrance and slung an arm around his shoulder.
"What's the matter?"
As he spoke, he raised the bottle and took a gulp.
The clearly information-carrying subordinate ignored the pirate leaning on him and took a deep breath, shouting excitedly.
"Silver Hair, Silver Hair, Silver Hair and his crew have emerged from Winter Island."
Upon hearing the shout, everyone in the palace stopped in their tracks, then their eyes blazed with ferocity, and they grabbed their weapons and stood up.
"Hahahaha!! That brat is finally out?"
A pirate raised his sword and said loudly, "Yeah! I thought these guys wouldn't be willing to come out until tomorrow!"
As he spoke, he turned around, staring with excitement at Hasu·Zhu Jiao.
"Captain, shall we go now?"
"Hahahaha!!"
Bang—!
Hasu·Zhu Jiao put down his wine bottle, pulled out a massive spiked mace from behind the sofa.
He slowly stood up.
"What do you say, Kuang Jian? Since Kong Tai and his crew are eager to die, let's go take care of them now."
"Of course."
Kebi·Kuang Jian, his right hand gripping his sword, his eyes a bloody red, grinned widely and licked his lips with his tongue.
"A 500 million bounty on his head, it must be exhilarating to chop it off!"
As he spoke, he also stood up.
"Indeed!"
"Has Hei Qi not returned yet?"
He seemed to recall something and turned to look at a subordinate beside him.
"Reporting, Captain, Hei Qi-sama has not been seen since he went out."
As he spoke, he lowered his head in thought, then looked up and said, "Hei Qi-sama is probably waiting for Silver Hair and his crew at the docks!"
"Then let's hurry over, we can't let him get Silver Hair's head alone!"
Saying that, he kicked over the coffee table in front of him and strode forward.
The surrounding pirates quickly cleared a path, and after the two captains passed, they eagerly followed.
As he reached the doorway, Hasu·Zhu Jiao paused and turned to stare at the pirate who had delivered the message and was following behind him.
"Did you see Ba Da and his crew?"
Ba Da and his crew were weak, but they were quite famous on Bass Island because that guy would do anything for food.
Not long ago, he had even recognized a cadre of their pirate group as his boss.
He had heard about Ba Da from this cadre. In short, Ba Da and his crew were the source of amusement for everyone on Bass Island.
"No."
"I suppose they were dealt with by Silver Hair's crew!"
The pirate laughed heartily and then said, "After all, with the strength of Ba Da's crew, they probably wouldn't even be able to escape, would they!"
"Does Ba Da's crew still have any strength?"
"Aren't those guys just a joke?"
"Hahahahaha..."
Those behind erupted in laughter.
Hasu·Zhu Jiao had merely asked casually; he didn't care if Ba Da and his crew lived or died!
"Let's go, time to collect that 500 million bounty."
As he spoke, he raised his spiked mace and, with a "bang," slung it over his shoulder and led the way out.
"Ah..."
The subordinates roared and rushed out.
...
On the Freedom, Kong Tai, who had just fallen asleep, stiffened, a red light flashing in his eyes.
"Do these guys want to die so badly?"
He was about to go to sleep, planning to deal with these guys tomorrow, but...
"Alas! A life of toil!"
Kong Tai, quite annoyed, picked up the long coat placed nearby, stood up, and put it on.
The Freedom was not large, but it was enough for them, so they basically had single rooms.
Of course, single rooms couldn't be too big.
Each room could only accommodate a small bed.
Kong Tai, in his slippers, took down "Zhan Kong" hanging on the wall and put it on his waist, yawning.
With his left hand on his sword and his right hand rubbing his head, he walked out of the room.
Outside the room was a corridor, and at the end of the corridor was a wooden ladder leading to the upper deck.
Just as Kong Tai walked out of his room, the door next to his room suddenly opened.
Gu Yina, wearing a bathrobe and rubbing her wet hair, walked out.
On the entire ship, only Gu Yina's room was the largest, so it not only had a large bed, a desk, but also a separate bathroom.
"Kong Tai, are there any enemies for me to fight?"
"No."
Kong Tai looked at Gu Yina, his lips curving into a smile.
"You should go to bed early! We'll be rescuing the citizens of Bass Kingdom tomorrow, there will be plenty of enemies then."
"Alright!"
A hint of regret appeared on Gu Yina's face, then she looked up at Kong Tai and said gently, "You come back early too."
"Okay!"
Kong Tai walked past Gu Yina, moving forward, "It won't take more than a few minutes for these insignificant shrimps."
As he spoke, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
This time was different from before.
Before, he could have spared these people with "ignorance is bliss," because he didn't know if there were any good people among them.
This time was different.
Since they knew who he was and still dared to come, it proved that these guys had made peace with their deaths!
He would not show mercy to enemies and scum!
...
"As expected, he's a man who naturally attracts attention."
"There are quite a few people who want to take Silver Hair's head."
On the roof of a building, a man who looked like a turkey was lying prone.
Listening to the noisy shouts coming from the direction of the kingdom, Firebird·Vance was filled with excitement.
In front of him was a telescope, shaped like a long cylinder. He looked through the telescope at the people rushing out of the royal palace, muttering to himself.
"Hasu·Zhu Jiao, Kebi·Kuang Jian, Long Mao, Kupu Kupu..."
The more he said, the more excited he became.
"These guys seem to have formed an alliance!"
Saying that, he shook his head, a hint of pity in his eyes.
These guys were truly naive! Did they really think the World Government's 500 million bounty was just for show? A high bounty naturally meant that Silver Hair·Kong Tai's strength or threat level matched that bounty!
However, their fate had nothing to do with him; he only cared about Kong Tai's plans.
Then he turned the lens and looked towards the Freedom.
"How will you respond, 'Silver Hair·Kong Tai'?"
He had no doubt about Silver Hair's strength. Even if the pirate alliance was ten times larger, they would not be Silver Hair's match.
He was wondering how Silver Hair would deal with these guys.
They had gathered almost everyone on Bass Island at this time!
There were at least five to six hundred elite personnel alone!
Add in some fringe players, and it would probably exceed a thousand people.
"Will he kill them... or injure them, knock them out and let them go!"
"Hehehehe!!"
From his heart.
Of course, he hoped Silver Hair would kill all these pirates.
This way, for him, it would be another big piece of news!
And their president loved big news the most.
