On the Rainbow, a medium-sized three-masted schooner formerly known as the Skullbreaker, Kruger had just sent off his brother-in-law who had come to persuade him again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Now that he has become a lieutenant colonel of the naval branch, he must be able to take good care of her." Recalling his brother-in-law's personality and his sister's slightly bulging lower abdomen, Kruger's face unconsciously put a smile on his face: "I don't know if it's a nephew or a niece......" But soon, Kruger came back to his senses, touched the letter placed close to him, straightened his collar, and walked out of the captain's room.

On the deck, a group of black people were standing silently, some of them had gray hair but no one dared to approach, some were one-footed and one-eyed but fierce, and some were thin and small but expectant, and when they saw the door of the captain's room open, they all focused their eyes on Kruger.

The deputy captain, who was standing at the front of the crowd, took a few steps forward, looked up with a complicated expression and whispered, "Captain, do you really want to do this?" ”

Taking the musket from the co-captain, Kruger patted the co-captain's remaining shoulder, pulled the corners of his mouth in response, and then stood in front of the crowd. Looking at the group of elders and juniors and old fellows in front of him, Kruger showed a smile, closed his eyes, and the thoughts in his mind were completely firm.

Seeing Kruger's iconic tall figure appear, the crowd stirred, and someone below shouted: "Captain, we have heard that Madame has written from you, give orders, the brethren are ready to go on the Great Voyage again!" There was a strange cry and echo from the crowd, and Kruger looked over to see his own navigator, one of the few able-bodied among the old fellows.

Kruger's smile remained unchanged and he shook his head:

"Some of you are uncles and uncles who followed my father, some of you are older brothers who have followed me, and some of you are nephews and nephews who have grown up with me,"

As he spoke, he looked back at the town next to the boat, and the women and children on the street were looking at the men on the boat with complicated expressions.

"Originally, I wanted to take you with me to find my daughter, and by the way, fulfill the dream that we couldn't fulfill at the beginning."

A few of the young boys below were already cheering, while the older brothers who knew Kruger were frowning.

"But my brother-in-law, no, it should be the lieutenant commander of the local naval branch, told me that if I took you all away, he would surely arrest me with his own hands, both in public and private, even if it hurt my wife."

"Cut! How could the petty lieutenant colonel be the opponent of the captain! Someone shouted below, and the crowd echoed it.

Kruger sighed, as if admiring, as if admiring:

"He naturally knew he wasn't my match, but he said so to me,"

Kruger straightened his waist slightly and said loudly:

"If I take all of your Rainbow Caravan and Rainbow Townsfolk Security Regiment, our home and the town my father founded will be destroyed in my hands!"

Looking at the slightly stunned crowd and the thoughtful old people, Kruger stretched out his finger and pointed to the navigator who had just been the first to speak:

"Your child was born just a few days ago, and your wife is not in good health, what will they do if you are gone"

"How can you take care of them if they are not brothers in the town," the navigator whispered, and looking at the disapproving expression of this fellow, Kruger said:

"And what if pirates come to attack the town?"

"How is it possible, I don't know which one is near the Rainbow Town Citizen Security Regiment, I think how many nearby villages and towns we defeated in the first place, and the pirates who came to attack ......"

The more he spoke, the quieter his voice became, and he realized that if they all followed Kruger, not to mention those passing pirates, even those who were defeated at the beginning would definitely not let go of the town, and it would take two hours for the navy to support the town at the earliest, and then I was afraid that they would have to come to collect the corpses of the town. Seeing that he understood, Kruger ignored him and stretched out his finger to the people who had just called the most cheerful:

"Your grandmother has only been seriously ill, and she has a bad brain and only knows you...... Your home has just started to improve a little, if you don't have it...... Your son was only promoted to captain in the Navy last month, if the Navy knew you were a pirate again...... Yours...... You ......"

With Kruger's words, the people who were still shouting lowered their heads and remained silent.

Looking around, Kruger said slowly: "My father's Rainbow Pirates have been disbanded for twenty years, and our Skull Crusher Pirates have also lived a stable life for three years, I have a family, but you also have a family. ”

Looking at the people who had stopped talking, Kruger tightened the musket with special gunpowder in his hand and looked up at the pirate flag that had only been re-hung today.

At this time, the navigator with a wit of inspiration said, "Captain, since you can't go with everyone, let me bring a few brothers with you." ”

Kruger glanced at the guy faintly, secretly annoyed that he had interrupted his hard-earned determination, but looking at the subordinates who heard the navigator's words and asked for their lives, his heart suddenly swelled with emotion. But he still shook his head resolutely, "The deputy captains and battle captains must stay, after I leave, there will definitely be impatient pirates to come and tempt me, without these elite towns, they can't be stopped,"

After speaking, the deputy captain, the gray-haired old man, the one-eyed and thin young man with a fierce expression all nodded their heads to acknowledge that they had heard.

"And a small number of fighters or you rookies," he said lightly, looking at the navigator who was obviously the first to follow him but didn't know how to make progress at all, "it's useless to follow me, after all, there are too many strong people at sea." ”

"Captain, can you not go......" Reaching out to stop the navigator who was still trying to say something, Kruger didn't blame him, after all, he was also worried about himself.

But thinking of the stubborn woman three years ago and the uncharacteristically weak in the letter, a trace of worry flashed in Kruger's eyes, which is why he wanted to reunite with the pirates immediately after receiving the letter. But now he is sober, because ......

"As a man...... took a few steps back, raised the musket in his hand, and the old crew, who realized what was about to happen, was startled, and then rushed over with a roar;

"There's always something to shoulder!" Aiming at the pirate flag fluttering in the wind, the people rushing towards him were stopped by the deputy captain who suddenly burst out from behind him;

"As a man......" "Bang!" As the gunshots rang out, it was as if the noise just now had suddenly been choked by the throat;

"There's always something that has to be done!" The special gunpowder caused the pirate flag to be burned out quickly, and the old crew members were already in tears.

"Three years late, I am here today to announce," the musket was thrown into the sea, and everyone stared blankly at the last trace of ash blown away by the wind on the flagpole, and the crying became louder and louder.

"Skull Crusher Pirates......"

"Disband!"
