"Mr. Zhang, according to our radar and early-warning aircraft, there is a pirate ship approaching you. It should be Gorik, a pirate who has been on the international wanted list for several years. He has dozens of lives on his hands and is extrely dangerous. Please board the ship and evade, we will send fighter jets directly!"
When the pirate ship entered the detection range of the early-warning aircraft, the aircraft carrier group responsible for protecting Zhang nglong had already discovered their approach. The captain imdiately inford Zhang nglong of the news through the escort team.
"Tell them not to co!" Zhang nglong stopped them imdiately, "This is the first ti in my life that I've encountered pirates!"
"But Mr. Zhang, they have many people, and there are heavy weapons aboard their ship. Your yacht, although high-spec, has no weapons. You'll have no ans of defense against them."
"I told you not to co over, so don't co over. What's with all the nonsense?" Zhang nglong said, "How far are you from
now?"
"About 3 nautical miles."
"Have your fighter jets ready to set off at any ti. I'll let you know when you can co!"
"This..."
"Do you have an opinion on my arrangent?"
"No... we dare not." The person in charge of the escort team could only pass this information on to the captain of the aircraft carrier group.
However, they were still beating the drums in their hearts. They weren't high enough in the hierarchy to know about Zhang nglong's recent feat of single-handedly taking down the entire Supernaturals Alliance. They only thought he was an ordinary person with a deep background and imnse power.
Fortunately, there were fighter jets on the aircraft carrier. As long as they took off imdiately, it would take less than a minute for them to appear. All they had to do was to ensure the safety of Zhang nglong and his peers in the anti.
...
"Captain, it seems they've found us. Everyone has already returned to the yacht. What should we do?"
"Full speed ahead," Gorik commanded, "That's just a private yacht. Its top speed is only twenty to thirty knots at most. Our speed is much faster. They won't be able to escape!"
"Yes!"
...
"nglong, they're getting closer."
"Oh gosh, I've never seen pirates in my life. I don't even know if pirates all wear an eyepatch and have hooks for hands."
"Have you been watching too many Caribbean pirates? Those are pirates of a bygone era," Zhang nglong explained with a smile to his female followers, "Modern pirates are basically similar to military forces, wearing uniforms, carrying standard weapons, and the ships they use are pretty much combat vessels."
"Tsk tsk tsk, just listening to that is exhilarating. I'll have to take lots of photos later."
"They really have guts, don't they? We're surrounded by an aircraft carrier group, and they dare to co over?"
"Can't help it, the stealth paint on the aircraft carrier group is probably way beyond their detection level. Unless they get within visibility range, their radar won't be able to pick anything up."
"Indeed, technology is truly the primary productive force. If they knew that we have an aircraft carrier, several destroyers, and fighter jets nearby, they'd probably be peeing themselves!"
...
"Captain, their yacht hasn't moved. Could it be that they're scared stiff? Hahaha!" The pirates aboard the pirate ship couldn't help but laugh upon seeing that the yacht hadn't moved from its spot.
"Hahaha, they must know that they can't escape. The nearest coast is more than 20 nautical miles away; they have no chance. They might as well behave."
"Wait a minute, Captain, the people up there look like Huaxia people!" a pirate with a telescope said, "Look, they have Asian features, and there is one of their national flags up there."
"What? Huaxia people?" Gorik was stunned, "How could they be Huaxia people? Isn't this yacht owned by the richest man in South Africa?"
"Captain, what do we do? Huaxia people are not to be trifled with."
After a long consideration, Gorik knew full well that Huaxia people were indeed not to be trifled with. A few days ago, when their pirate activities were rampant, a group of ignorant pirates had hijacked a Huaxia vessel. The next day, Huaxia sent a fleet of warships and flattened their stronghold.
Nowadays, Huaxia could only be described as formidable.
"Fuck it, even if the United Nations Secretary-General were here today, we'd still have to pull off this job!" Gorik gritted his teeth. "Such an opportunity seldom cos our way. If we nail this one, we could rest for at least half a year!"
"Notify the crew, prepare to board, but try not to kill any Huaxia people!"
"Yes!"
With a burst of shouting and the sound of engines, three speedboats carrying more than a dozen ard pirates charged toward them.
"They're coming!" The mbers of the accompanying group panicked.
Although they had their warships nearby, it would be a disaster once the pirates boarded. No matter how fast the planes, they couldn't outpace a bullet. If the pirates took them hostage, even an aircraft carrier close by would be aningless.
"If only we'd kept a small squad of soldiers on board!" the head of the accompanying group expressed regret.
"Mr. Zhang, there's a refuge on board, prepared by South Africa's wealthiest in case of such ergencies. Let's hide in there for now; I'll call our battleship over."
"You go if you want, we're not going in!" Zhang nglong also took out his binoculars and even waved at the pirates' leader.
"Yiyi, grab my cara for , will you? I need to take a few more photos—maybe get a couple with that pirate leader later."
"Got it," Lu Yiyao wrapped herself in a bathrobe and hung the cara around her neck.
"Are you fucking insane?" The head of the accompanying team was on the verge of cursing out loud.
These were real pirates holding guns that could kill, murderers burdened with dozens of lives. This wasn't cosplay, and it wasn't so murder mystery escape room. How could you be so bold?
Do you think just because you're the world's richest, they wouldn't dare to capture you?
Even if you have a powerful background, if they kill everyone on your yacht, who would know they did it? Be more cautious, will you?
"Holy shit! Are those AKs they're holding?"
"Aweso! I've never seen real guns before!"
"Do they have a Kar98k? I'm super good with an eight-tis sniper scope!"
The ones unhurried weren't just Zhang nglong, but also his senior and junior schoolmates. Their faces showed no fear—instead, they looked excited and eager.
Are Huaxia people this badass now?
If it were a few days ago, facing such a scene, they'd probably be crying by now!
Just so pirates, and you're impressed by a mobbing of fifth-generation fighter jets? Is that cooler than soone chasing you in a car with a rocket launcher at your back?
But ti and again, they've weathered crises unscathed, as if Zhang nglong being there ant they wouldn't face any danger.
Although they didn't know how Zhang nglong would deal with the pirates, the casual look on his face told them he didn't take these pirates seriously at all.
If they didn't need to fear these pirates, why not view it from another angle and treat it as an exciting experience?
"Ding ding ding!" One after another, grappling hooks flew from the pirates' boats, latching onto the yacht. These pirates were actually quite skilled; in less than two minutes, three speedboats and about fifteen or sixteen pirates had all reached the deck of the yacht.
"Don't move, we only want money, not lives. We don't wish to kill Huaxia people; we hope you won't force us to shoot!" The pirates raised their guns, aiming at Zhang nglong and the others.
"Click click!" Suddenly, a flurry of flashes went off, nearly causing a few pirates to accidentally fire their weapons.
"What the hell are you doing?" One of the pirates imdiately aid his gun at one of Zhang nglong's juniors.
"Brother, what did he say?" These pirates were speaking so language he couldn't understand.
"He's asking what you're doing?" Zhang nglong translated.
"Sorry... sorry, it's my first ti seeing pirates so I got too excited and wanted to take so photos; forgot to turn off the flash!"
