Chapter 140 The Princess in the Cellar
"What are you afraid of? Have we ever encountered an enemy we couldn't defeat since we sailed here? The navy and pirates are nothing but chickens and dogs.
I said at the beginning that we should just go and rob it. What a waste of time! It won’t be long before we can go to the new world and get closer to the great treasure, but now we have to wait here!"
The man in the cloak was a little impatient. He always advocated that if you can take action, don't talk too much.
"Boss, the deputy captain has gone out to get information. If nothing goes wrong, we will get the ransom tomorrow. Please wait one more day!"
The bald man advised that he knew the captain was very strong, but they were not. If they met the agents of the World Government, they would be in danger.
"The vice-captain is just too cautious, otherwise our Flame Pirates would have become a big pirate group long ago, and I would have become famous all over the world. You always keep a low profile, and it's suffocating me!" The cloaked man is a little irritable, and his temperament is as fiery as fire!
"But the vice-captain's decision has saved us a lot of pursuits and troubles. The vice-captain is also doing it for the good of the entire pirate group!"
The bald man can't afford to offend either of the two captains. The result of the captain's decision is that everyone has to charge in. This was the case before the deputy captain came on board. At that time, companions died in every battle. He was also very afraid of encountering a strong opponent before it was his turn. But now it is much safer to follow the deputy captain's low-key policy, and almost no one has died.
"Then let's wait and see what the result is when he comes back!"
After the man in black robe finished saying this, footsteps were heard overhead. They were now in an underground vegetable cellar in a small bungalow. The princess was tied to the wall with her head tilted to one side and she was unconscious.
"The deputy captain should be back, and he should have accurate news!" said the bald man excitedly.
"I hope it's bad news, so I can vent my anger! Hahaha!" Hysterical laughter came from under the cloak.
"No, boss! Your ability is too abnormal. It will hurt us!" said the bald man in fear.
"Captain, what are you so happy about?"
At this moment, a clear voice was heard, with a hint of laughter in the tone.
"Oh, you're back. How is it? Is it good news?" Although the cloaked man asked about good news, his good news implied that he wanted to hear bad news.
"Our people discovered a warship landing at the dock. There are no obvious signs on the warship, and we don't know what level of person is leading the team!" replied Deputy Captain Kyle.
"Oh, so, the old king exposed this matter. It seems that our methods are still too mild. Kyle, with our strength, there is no need to do anything. Let's just charge towards the palace directly. What is there for our pirate group to fear from a warship? It's not like we haven't destroyed one before!" said the cloaked man disdainfully.
"Let's give him another chance. The Den Den Mushi has been taken away, and we may still be able to get the money through gentle means!" Kyle continued to persuade.
"We must get this money this time. Our ship is no longer usable. We must go to the Water City to buy a good ship to prepare for entering the new world. We must also be prepared to rob the warship and leave here. These navy men must also die here!" The voice under the cloak was a little cold!
"Okay, I'll contact the royal family first and see what they plan to do!"
Kyle was a little helpless, he didn't want too many people to get involved. Now the people sent by the navy to hunt them down were only at the brigadier general level, and it would be no problem for the captain to deal with them with his current strength.
If the threat was too great and more powerful characters were attracted, they would definitely not be able to enter the new world. His strength was much weaker than that of his own captain and would be more dangerous, so he had always advised the captain to keep a low profile, but the captain had a bad temper and liked to do things openly.
Kyle took out the Den Den Mushi and called the king. After only two rings, the Den Den Mushi was picked up.
"My daughter is in your hands?" A somewhat old and tired voice was heard.
"Yes, Your Majesty, we are only seeking money. Your country is so rich, 10 billion Baileys should not be a big deal, right? How about it, is the money ready?"
"Of course I'm ready, but I want to know if my daughter is still alive!" Den Den Mushi said after a moment of silence from the other side.
"Her Royal Highness has fainted and can't speak now. I'll contact you when she wakes up. Since the money is ready, let's do the deal tomorrow morning. One hand for the money and the other for the person. Don't play tricks. Wait for the phone call!"
Kyle hung up the phone without giving the old king a chance to speak.
The unconscious princess had actually woken up, but she did not open her eyes. She also heard the conversation between several people and knew that her father had reported the matter to the navy.
"The information that the navy has landed on the island has been exposed. These pirates are too powerful. I will most likely be killed after the transaction. I don't know what my father is thinking. Why should he just give me the money? Why report it to the navy? Now they have been pissed off. My chances of survival are even slimmer!"
The princess is only sixteen years old and has never experienced any storms. She is already feeling a little desperate!
She had seen how powerful these pirates were. So many guards died in an instant. She knew that if they were ordinary navy officers, they would be here to die, so her current situation was quite dangerous.
"Captain, we still have to prepare for retreat. The navy is a variable here, and it will most likely show up during the transaction!"
"Haha, I'm just worried that they won't come. This time, none of them can leave. We're going to the new world soon. My bounty must be increased to keep up appearances. I'll kill this princess in front of the king. She dared to deceive us. I'll just give her a parting gift!"
The cloaked man's words frightened the princess. Although she was worried that she would be killed, she had not received a verdict. Now that these words were finally spoken, she panicked, her breathing became unstable, and her body began to tremble.
"Boss, this woman has been awake for a long time and has been eavesdropping on our conversation. What should we do with her?"
The bald man had been staring at the beautiful princess by the wall, with lustful gleam in his eyes. He noticed something was wrong with the princess and reported it immediately.
"Haha, you can do whatever you want. We are pirates. We are free beings!" said the cloaked man arrogantly, and walked back to the main seat and sat down.
"Don't kill her now. Maybe he needs her to call back. Don't push the king!" Kyle said calmly. He would need this princess later, and a more miserable princess might be more effective.
"Yes, yes, yes, you can't kill me, otherwise you won't get a penny!" Princess Paula shouted in horror.
"Hahaha, we don't have to kill you now, but we can have some fun with you. I guarantee you'll be satisfied. We have quite a few people here, so you might have to work hard!"
The bald man narrowed his eyes and smiled lewdly, and the brothers behind him also laughed.
The cloaked man smiled indifferently, he was not interested in women, he only desired strength and fame. Kyle showed a look of disgust on his face, he felt that the methods of these pirates were too low-level, and it was boring to use force directly.
