The two brothers who had wanted to eat up Annie's piece of cake so long ago would eat Annie up completely, and then ignore Dawn, the "dragon coming from the river", until they left.
In this way, Annie became the only victim. As the largest intelligence agent in the East China Sea, she didn't want to let mermaid meat, so she thought of killing people with a knife!
Chapter 143 Night Attack
Time always passes quickly when we are talking.
At this moment, the sun has already set, leaving only a little afterglow to prevent the night from falling completely into darkness.
There are already a few stars twinkling in the dark blue sky. It can be seen that the weather seems to be good today, and we should be able to see the starry sky.
Dawn was lying on a sun lounger on the deck of the warship. The warship had been anchored in the sea for half a day.
The same is true for Anne's ship, which is also anchored on this sea surface.
As for Annie, even after Dawn used his own advantages to pressure her to finish telling the news, like squeezing toothpaste, he still did not completely believe what she said.
Even if everything the other party said was logical and well-founded, Dawn's experience in his previous life meant that he was not the kind of person who would easily trust others.
After all, in the past, crimes such as robbery and theft have gradually decreased due to the convenience of online payment. On the contrary, the number of scammers has increased due to Internet or telephone fraud, so being on guard against others is basic operation.
Of course, you must never have the intention to harm others.
However, Dawn was not resistant to the "experience package" that could capture most of the pirates in the East China Sea.
Moreover, Dawn also maintained a neutral attitude towards Anne's surrender. If it was really as the other party said, it would be impossible to spare her life, but the price would definitely be to serve Dawn.
People like Annie, once you kill them, new ones will grow like grass after a while. Instead of doing that, it is better to get rid of those that you cannot control and keep those that you can control.
Moreover, Dawn attaches great importance to the resources in Annie's hands as an intelligence dealer. It seems that she is responsible for exchanging intelligence from the East China Sea with intelligence dealers from other places to jointly build a huge intelligence network.
If he could recruit her for his own use, then every move of the East China Sea would be under Dawn's control. Even if he wanted to find out other information, he could get it through Annie and ask other intelligence dealers.
It was getting darker as the two of them talked. Dawn said he would make a decision after dinner regarding Annie's surrender, and it was already time for dinner.
"I wonder if I'd have the honor of having dinner with His Highness Dawn?" Anne came to Dawn at dinner time and sat down with a smile. Her leisurely attitude made it impossible to tell that she was anxious about the situation she was facing.
"Sit down first and talk after dinner." Dawn looked at the big bowl of food brought over by the maid, his mind full of desire for the food from his previous life.
The white rice, paired with the delicious soup cooked with kelp, the beef that was cooked until it was soft and rotten, the medulla deep in the bones and the soft beef tendons on the surface of the bones, and the salty radish with a meaty aroma, made Dawn feel a little nostalgic.
Baby-5 held the dish in front of her and looked at Dawn: "This is the first time I've made something like this. I don't know if it's delicious."
"It's okay. I can tell from the smell that it's delicious. Let's sit down and eat together." Dawn asked baby-5 to sit down and served him a bowl of rice, then he couldn't wait to pour the beef soup over the rice.
Beef, radish and kelp stewed with kelp, feeling the nostalgic taste on the tip of his tongue, Dawn did not behave like a gentleman at all. He finished the whole pot of broth brought by baby-5 and then licked his lips with satisfaction. The full stomach after the meal brought Dawn great satisfaction.
"I agree to your conditions. I accept your surrender, but in return you have to work for me after we eliminate them. Is that okay?" Dawn said lazily while lying on a sun lounger and looking at Annie beside him.
"No problem." Annie agreed without hesitation. Or maybe it was a big win to still have her previous status. It was just transmitting information to one person, and in return she could get the other person's protection. It was not a loss no matter how she thought about it.
Although she had finally become an intelligence dealer in the East China Sea, the more she came into contact with others and understood them, the more she could feel the vastness of the ocean and her own insignificance.
The stability of the four seas is of great importance to the world government and the navy. In order not to attract the attention of the navy, those powerful intelligence dealers will not bother to cross the Upside-Down Mountain to establish intelligence points.
All they have to do is cooperate with local people like Anne. If they don't agree, they will be destroyed. So Anne seems to be in a great position, but in fact that is based on her knowledge of what's best for her.
Now I think about it, I can’t lose money. After taking advantage of the navy, who will provide information to whom? And Dawn’s potential is more than that.
Dawn looked at Annie and said, "Everything is going according to plan. After they gather on Rat Island, I will join forces with the navy of the East China Sea to capture them all in one fell swoop."
"You should know the consequences of betrayal," Dawn warned.
"Of course." Anne replied, nodding her fair chin.
.........
On the night in the East China Sea, it has been a month since Anne and Dawn separated, and now most of the pirates are gathering together.
Pirate ships of all shapes and sizes were anchored on Rat Island. Countless pirates got off the pirate ships of various shapes and began to make noise on the island.
Some enemies are extremely jealous when they meet, some pirates are indulging in a party, this is the daily life of most pirates.
On a pirate ship on the periphery, Dwayne was observing the situation on the ship alone.
A pirate who looked like a dwarf and monkey had an impatient look on his face. He, a burly and scarred pirate, and three nondescript minions were drinking alcohol with unhappy faces.
"Damn it, why do we have to watch the boats here while they can party on the island."
"It can't be helped. Someone has to watch the boat."
"What's the point of leaving so many people on each ship? They are probably drinking like us to vent their dissatisfaction about being left behind."
"Okay, I'm going to pee."
"Wait, I'll go too." The short dwarf followed one of the pirates and stood on the edge of the ship, unzipping their clothes and dumping waste into the sea.
In the dark night, Dawn, who had already figured out the situation of the ship, acted decisively. Two translucent conical bullets pierced through the heads of the two men.
The kinetic energy carried by the translucent bullet carried the two pirates of different sizes directly into the sea.
It seemed that one of the pirates turned sideways to see what was happening behind him, but they saw the empty ship, and the two people who were standing on the edge just now had disappeared.
He just opened his mouth, but at this moment another bullet pierced his skull, destroying his life along with the warning he was about to blurt out.
The other pirate suffered the same fate as him, his lifeless body finally fell on the deck of the pirate ship.
But something happened to the burly pirate. Maybe it was because he was much stronger than the other pirates, but he blocked the air bullet that was supposed to hit his skull.
He opened his mouth to shout, but Dawn approached and hit him on the chin. The next moment, Dawn dodged the burly pirate's life-saving attack, and the sharp air blade in his right hand pierced directly into the neck through the burly pirate's forward-leaning body.
The sharp blade that had stabbed his throat disappeared immediately, and the burly pirate didn't make a sound in the end. He fell backwards on the deck, and his huge body splashed blood that flowed on the deck.
With the fallen pirate and the fleeting Ouroboros, Dawn destroyed the bottom of the ship and quietly walked towards the next ship.
Chapter 144 Plans and Changes
Time goes back to two hours before Dawn attacked the ship's guard.
Dawn enjoyed a delicious meal on the warship, and at the same time couldn't help but praise himself for his wise decision to hire baby-5 as a chef.
In just a short period of time, baby-5's cooking skills have improved enough.
Combined with Dawn's experience as a foodie in his previous life, he was able to make a lot of dishes from his previous life's Great Foodie Empire, which greatly satisfied Dawn's appetite.
Since the pirates gathered at a fixed location and only needed time to gather, Anne and Dawn agreed to contact her phone bug and catch them all in one place.
But after Dawn hung up the phone, he directly violated the contract and led his subordinates directly to the island where the pirates gathered.
Even if it was just a warship, and the soldiers knew the number of destinations and enemies, no one opposed it.
Because they had already witnessed the strength of this young commander in the Grand Line, and after staying in the sea for a long time, they all understood one thing - numbers do not represent strength.
What's more, it was just a secret raid on a ship guarded by the enemy, not a head-on battle.
As to why Dawn changed her plans with Annie.
Regardless of whether Annie is trustworthy, the East China Sea navy is not as pure as imagined. Dawn believes that many of them are in collusion with pirates.
What's more, now warships are being mobilized on a large scale. Even if only one person among them is colluding with the pirates, Dawn's plan to catch them all in one fell swoop will become empty talk.
On the other hand, it is almost impossible to hide traces with such a large-scale mobilization, so after communicating with Lieutenant General Cap, Dawn decided to destroy the pirate's ships as the vanguard.
After that, the pirates gathered on this island had no means of escape and could only be caught on the island.
Under the leadership of Garp, a large number of warships can go to the island openly.
And the place that has become an isolated island will be surrounded by the navy and will be attacked like a "demon killing order".
As for Annie, it can be said that Dawn did not trust her from the beginning.
On the surface, the sexy and mature beautiful woman had taken refuge with him, but Dawn had no means to control her, so this plastic trust was the same as having nothing.
Unless Dawn demonstrates amazing strength and leaves the other party with no intention of resisting or developing the contract aura, Dawn can only trust the other party if he has the means to restrain him.
Back at this moment, Anne was already on the island where pirates gathered. Here she was the owner of one-third of the island, and naturally many industries belonged to her.
The pirates had basically gathered at this moment. Anne did not stay for a long time after communicating with these pirate leaders at the dinner, but just quietly returned to her base camp.
After sending the service staff away, just as Annie was enjoying the wine alone in the base camp, the Den Den Mushi disrupted her peaceful enjoyment.
Bulubulubulubulu~~
Frowning, Annie looked at Den Den Mushi with some impatience.
He reached out and picked up the Den Den Mushi, and after hearing Dawn's voice coming from the Den Den Mushi, his dissatisfaction disappeared in an instant.
"It's Commander Dawn. It seems that it's not the right time for us to plan now." Annie took a sip of red wine and asked lazily.
"I'm calling you to let you know that the plan has been moved up. You should prepare to run away as soon as possible."
Dawn's tone on the other end of the Den Den Mushi sounded very casual, and the Den Den Mushi imitated that casual expression to perfection.
But Annie didn't have time to check the expression of the Den Den Mushi in her hand to determine whether Dawn was joking.
She said in a panic, "Wait...wait, didn't we set a time to wait until all the pirates had gathered? There are still some that have slipped through the net, and is it too late to manpower now?"
Dawn chuckled and said casually, "Ah, don't worry, I have already sunk one third of the pirate ship docked on the shore, and we can close the net when the navy arrives.
As for those who slipped through the net, even if I gave them to your men, I just informed you to be ready to run away, otherwise don't blame me if you get hurt later."
Besides, my warship is located at three o'clock in the south of the island, so you should rendezvous with my warship as soon as possible." After saying that, Dawn hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Ba jia~
Dawn walked towards the next ship. At this moment, one-third of the guards on the ship had been killed silently by Dawn.
As for these minions in the East China Sea, the only thing that could stop Dawn was to disperse the guards and be careful not to make any noise during the assassination so as not to be discovered by the pirates on other ships.
Most of those ships had their bottoms destroyed by Dawn, but because most of the ships were close to the coast, the damage to the bottoms was not that great.
So the ship would not sink for a while, but it would be a pipe dream to use it to escape afterwards.
"Damn it, he didn't believe me at all!" How could Annie not know at this point why Dawn didn't follow the previously agreed plan but instead chose this approach.
But even though she understood Dawn's behavior, it made Anne's current situation more urgent because she didn't know when the navy's artillery fire would cover the island.
But how could he dare to do such a thing? He wanted to destroy a large number of pirate ships that were scattered so widely with just one crew?
Did he know that if one of the operations went wrong, all the pirates on the island would react. How could he possibly stop all the pirate ships with just one warship?
Once these pirates reach the sea, it will not be so easy to find an opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Obviously, this intelligence agent in the East China Sea probably thought Dawn was a plan implemented by soldiers carrying warships. If she knew that Dawn was the only one in this operation, I wonder how she felt?
