North Port of Bahamus.
Black skull-shaped flags fluttered on a majestic ship, and on this pirate ship that stayed in the harbor, dozens of pirates dressed in rough linen wept and mourned, not knowing what fate would meet them next.
They lost a shipment.
A shipment worth a thousand dollars.
It was intercepted by the people of the Faith Mercenary Group, although there are often some small frictions between the two forces, but it is the first time that such a large-scale interception of goods, and sure enough, when the goods were intercepted not long after, Plancks knew the news.
Inside the captain's cabin.
Plancks had a gloomy face, his left hand playing with two iron balls, constantly hovering in his palm, and his right hand quietly tapping on the tabletop, the rhythm of this beating seemed to knock on the hearts of the pirates who had lost their goods.
"Three crates of Fran were intercepted, twelve cases of Kerford were intercepted, and all the rest of the various cargoes were intercepted, at least 3,000 gold coins, enough gold for all of us to survive for a month. ā
Plancks spoke in a slow, slow pace, but in a heavy tone.
"Without this money, there would be a big gap in our funding. ā
The dozens of pirates who had lost their cargo bowed their heads, and there were many of them, and Plancks' own captain's cabin was full of them, but none of them dared to speak.
"Maybe I really shouldn't have just let you keep this cargo guarded. Plancks rubbed his temples, "I've given it some thought, but your guilt for losing your goods is unforgivable. ā
"My punishment for you is simple. Plancks stopped playing with his left hand, which was playing with the iron ball.
"I'll have a good talk with the leader of the Faith Mercenary Regiment tomorrow, but... In the past few days, you have found an opportunity for me to kill some of the mercenary members in the city. ā
"You know what to do. ā
"Engrave my name on their corpses, and I will tell them who the owner of this place is!"
Plancks said indifferently.
He wanted to kill people, and the people of the Faith Mercenary Regiment believed that they had won the trust of Pochi Raymond, the nominal ruler of this land, and installed the members of the Faith Mercenary Regiment in various soldier offices in Bahamus City, and got a lot of rights, thinking that they could control the entire territory of Bahamus, which was too easy.
This time, it even provoked him, which made him angry.
"Report to the captain, two outsiders came this morning, they seem to have some ability, and there seems to be some conflict with a few mercenaries in the city, but it seems that the people of the faith mercenary group appreciate these two outsiders and invite them to join the faith mercenary group, should we cut them. ā
With a report.
There was a gleam in Plancks' eyes.
"You sent someone to spy on these two outsiders for me, and I will slaughter them when I have the chance, and all those who are favored by the faith mercenary group will be slaughtered for me, and I will let those bastards of the faith mercenary group enjoy the end of angering me!"
The pirates also found a place to vent their anger, and hurriedly came up with various ideas of their own, knowing that Captain Plancks needed a place to vent his anger, and since the punching bag was not theirs, they could transfer it to anyone in the city.
"Captain, since we have suffered such a big loss this time, it is better for us to do a big vote!"
"How about we kidnap the sister of the leader of the Faith Mercenary Regiment and deliver it with one hand and hand it over to others!"
"Yes, yes, we can also set fire to the camp of the Faith Mercenary Regiment and tell them who is the ruler of the Bahamus!"
Poulencus tapped the table and motioned for them to be quiet.
"I don't care what you're going to do, if you can do it, do it! I'll be your strongest back, just let these bastards know the consequences of offending my wild Epulnx!"
Plancks stood up, "Thor, you go and kidnap that bastard sister of Dolua for me." ā
"Captain, you're not joking?"
A figure appeared behind Planx, his eyebrows were very thick, and there was a scar on the center of his eyebrows, he looked like a ruthless character, hearing Plancks's words, he was slightly stunned, "Are you planning to start a complete war with the people of the Faith Mercenary Regiment?"
"The person who values Dolua the most is his sister. ā
"That's right. Plancks grinned and bared his yellow, black teeth, "My most precious thing is gold, they took my most precious things, and of course I want Dolua to lose his most precious things." ā
"If he doesn't deliver the goods as scheduled, I'll tear up the ticket as well. ā
"Thor, I saved your life. ā
"You promised me three things to do for me. ā
Thor nodded, "I'm here to help, it's the second thing I've done for you." ā
With that, Thor quietly left the place.
The entire captain's cabin fell silent for a long time, and then, with a shout, the pirates rushed out of the captain's cabin as if they had received some order, and they took up their weapons and disembarked.
Looking at the departing pirates, Plancks squinted, and his expression suddenly became very cold.
"It's been so long since Zenisi led the team out to find the treasure, and there is no news at all, what's going on?"
In the drawer of Plancks' desk lay a crude and strange map, which Suhn would have been surprised to find in his presence a slight resemblance to the one he had found on the black market.
But in the details, there are also some deviations.
"If it weren't for Zenisi leading more than 500 people to find the treasure, I wouldn't have been robbed of so many goods by these greedy fellows of the Faith Mercenary Regiment. Plancks jerked himself up from his seat.
He paced anxiously in the captain's cabin.
It's been almost half a month.
Zenisi has not brought anyone back, and he is more at ease than Thor, because Zenisi and he were playmates when he was a child, and he was a close friend, and he followed him all the way, and he had crossed countless winds and waves, and he had a friendship for more than ten years.
It is impossible to betray him.
Since it's not a betrayal, why hasn't I gotten any news about Zenisi in the past half a month?
Planx was anxious.
He had a bad premonition.
Suddenly, a strange black crow fluttered its wings and flew out of the window, and Plancks ran over in ecstasy, and one stumbled and almost fell, when he was surprised to untie a letter tied to the crow's feet.
Spread it out slowly, while reading the information above.
Plancks' face turned pale.
The message was 7 days ago, and to make matters worse, it was a call for help.
Zenisi is trapped on the island where the treasure is hidden.
