Chapter Eighty-Six: Punishment Chooses One of Three

[PS: The power supply of the host is burned, the word of the spare computer code, good card! ] 】

Planks creaked beneath their feet, and the dark deck was dripping with tar-thick black juice. Stepping on it is like connecting to the deck, and it takes more effort to walk. From time to time, a piece of deck was abruptly raised, and the person who stepped on it either fell directly, or was directly catapulted into the air, and then fell down heavily.

What is even more frightening is that the black and tough cables on the ship, under the cover of night, have become the sharpest and most feared killers. One by one, when the sailors stepped on a certain area, they were unknowingly wrapped around their ankles by ropes hidden in the shadows, and then hung upside down in the air.

The dozens of fierce and vicious people quickly realized the anomaly, but they had no resistance to the cables and decks that seemed to have life. Before they could reach the door of the captain's quarters, most of them were either hung upside down in the air, or before they could react, a few of them were caught by the sudden burst of cables under their feet, dragged to a nearby mast, and tied tightly to it. Even those who had poor knowledge and reacted very quickly and wanted to jump into the sea to escape were bound back by the waving rope volley.

In a team of dozens of people, only a few big cats and kittens were left in a short period of time. The rest of the pirates, armed with torches and swords, with fierce faces turned cold in the face of the ropes that surrounded them like long snakes winding around them.

When it is long!

When it is long!

When it is long!

A succession of weapons fell from the hands of the remaining pirates, like the weapons they held in their hands, like hot soldering irons.

Debel and Anna-Maria covered their mouths and stared blankly at the shocking scene in front of them, and were a little speechless in shock. Adelson, who had a dull face on the side, after Tang Bai stepped over him and patted him lightly on the shoulder, the whole person seemed to be suddenly sobered up by that pat, and his sluggish face instantly turned into full of ecstasy.

Thinking of the appreciative look that Tang Bai handed him when he patted him, Adelson's originally panicked heart suddenly became hot. He knew he was right this time!

"Tut-tut, gentlemen! Are you engaged in a brutal, dark, and evil rebellion? Tang Bai walked to the staircase, looked at the messy deck condescendingly, his palm gently patted the railing beside him, and the loud words echoed in the sea breeze at night.

This was the first time Tang Bai appeared in front of all the sailors, his face was not vicious, although his figure did not look thin and thin, but compared to some of the sturdy pirates on the deck with big shoulders and round waists and bulging muscles, it was also dwarfed.

Tang Bai didn't have the fierce and cold momentum of most pirates on the deck, but the moment he appeared, it was as if he had a strange and terrifying magic on him, and the people on the deck who were screaming and scolding suddenly seemed to be choked by the throat, a strange and silent silence. All the pirates set their sights on the man standing in front of the railing of the staircase.

"I was just entertaining a friend," Tang Bai said, stretching out his hand sideways to signal in the direction of Debell, then turned around and continued: "But it's disappointing that I was disturbed by you. ”

Tang Bai's voice was very soothing, and his tone was not mixed with the slightest anger, as if what had just happened was just a trivial matter. But the pirates on the deck, who had lost their freedom, listened to Tang Bai's gentle and calm words, but they felt a deep chill, and suddenly hit their hearts.

"It's Harvey, he's the one who instigated us to riot!"

Among the few people on the deck who were not bound by the cables, a loud voice burst to the ground, and an unkempt, ragged pirate with half of his chest exposed, jumped to his feet, pointed to a black figure hanging upside down in the darkness, and roared madly.

Sou!

A black shadow swept across the deck and snaked up the ankle of the pirate who spoke, binding his entire legs, feet and arms. Then, in a hoarse high-pitched voice full of panic and panic, the pirate's eyes were wide open with fear, and the rope that bound him was suspended in the air, suspended in mid-air a foot in front of Tang Bai.

"Harvey?"

Tang Bai looked at the pirate in front of him, and gently spit out two words in his mouth.

"It's him! He had planned it before he even got on board. He and his companions threatened us that if we didn't follow him, he would kill us. The pirate who was hoisted to Tang Bai's side shouted in a sharp and mournful voice.

"Is that so? Mr. Harvey? ”

A black pirate with a fierce face and a strong body like a bear, exposed to the dim candlelight as the rope moved, Tang Bai turned his head to look at the black pirate hanging in front of him, and tilted his head.

"Do you know what kind of punishment you will receive on the sea, if you plan to rebel and disobey the will and orders of the captain?" Tang Bai looked at the silent black pirate and asked unhurriedly.

In the dim light, the corners of Harvey's eyes twitched, and a look of fear flew in his eyes. Seeing his face, Tang Bai suddenly stretched his tone and sighed, "Oh, you know? That's great! I can explain it to you without a few words. As a benevolent captain, I can give you three options. ”

Harvey's face changed instantly, and Debell looked at Tang Bai with interest as if he had discovered something. From the collapse of the situation to the stability and regaining control of his hands, it was only less than three or two minutes, and Tang Bai, who had no sense of existence, suddenly became the focus of attention from the moment he appeared in front of the pirates.

"One, Keel-

Hauling [Bottom Drag], which is pulled from starboard to port with a rope through the pass, fixes you to the rope through the bottom of the boat, and you will enjoy the friction from the keel. Most wooden bottoms are covered in razor-sharp burrs and splinters, and mine is even worse! ”

β€œOne-Man-

Island [Banishment], I will give you a small sampan, and let you be banished to a sea area where there are no islands nearby. You will drift alone on this sea with your sampan until you die of sunstroke or die in the mouth of a shark. ”

"Neither? Well, I'm sure you won't say no to the third one. Tang Bai leaned sideways and hooked the fingers of his right hand towards Adson, who was standing respectfully on the side, and Adelson immediately bowed and walked up. Tang Bai took the sword in Adson's hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

The rope that bound Harvey swung in a circle, suddenly loosened, and gently threw Harvey onto the deck below. Tang Bai walked down the stairs step by step, and threw the sword in his hand at Harvey's feet: "The third option, you can choose to pick up the sword and duel with me, if you win, I will pardon you." ”

Tang Bai didn't say how Harvey lost, and Harvey himself knew the result. Compared with the first two options, even if the people on the deck choose alone, the third option is the best choice.

Harvey rubbed his somewhat numb hands and feet that were strangled by the rope, bent down and picked up the sword under his feet, his body was like a predatory cheetah, vigorous and fast, with an indomitable tragic momentum, and rushed towards Tang Bai a few meters away.

But only halfway through, Harvey stopped in shock, his face was surprised and incredulous, and Debel, who was watching the duel on the stairs, also had a look of surprise in his eyes. The crowd on the deck was silent again.

"It's not fair!"

Looking at Tang Bai in front of him with his hand pointing at him, Harvey roared angrily.

"Mr. Advice, there is no absolute fairness in this world. This is my ship, and as captain, I make all the things and the laws on this ship. Tang Bai tilted his head and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
