Chapter 846 Urgent Mission

"Ah! How could this happen~!"
Jer sat on the ground with a painful expression, feeling heartbroken for not being able to catch the God of Wealth.
"Okay, get up quickly."
Aaron said calmly.
"Hey, brother, can you have some compassion? Don't you know what we brothers just missed? A huge fortune!"
"Humph, I don't want gifts from strangers, not to mention they didn't even intend to give it to you! How can it be considered a loss?"
Aaron remained unmoved.
"Ahhh! That's why I said, brother, you don't understand at all..."
"Burr, boo, boo! Boo, boo, boo!"
No matter how much he played or how much fun he had, when he heard the voice of the Navy Den Den Mushi, he immediately jumped up from the ground.
"Ka-chan!"
"Hello! This is..."
Before Aaron could finish his words, the Den Den Mushi who answered the phone interrupted with eyes wide open.
"Emergency mission! Everyone! Gather at Island No. 7 immediately!"
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, the two brothers set off immediately.
...
Chabaoti Archipelago
No Man's Land
Island No. 7!
An ordinary-looking manor, but with a slightly larger area, sits quietly and alone in the suburbs, far away from the central street.
The courtyard with green bricks and red tiles exudes an ancient atmosphere. The walls are covered with densely packed leaves of ivy, which neatly cover the entire high wall like fish scales.
The heavy cast iron gate was open, and the bluestone pavement in front of the door, splashed with water, revealed its original natural texture.
An old lady with gray hair and a kind face was bending over and cleaning diligently. The morning light fell on her head, coating the three thousand silver threads with a layer of golden light.
There is some artistic conception, but not much.
Compared with the fantastic scenery of Shampoodi with tree roots as islands, tree crowns as domes, and romantic bubbles flying all over the sky, a courtyard with a slightly poetic and picturesque atmosphere can be said to be inconspicuous.
However, the tiny camera-phone bugs lying on the courtyard wall and the black-clad bodyguards surrounding the wall in circles all emphasized that this place "is not suitable for staying for long!" No, it's true. This place is definitely not simple!
"Moses, this is the main entrance... Everything is normal, everything is normal, over!"
The bodyguards were all alert, not daring to slack off at all. From time to time, they turned their heads to communicate the situation using the small walkie-talkies attached to their collars.
"Sand...sand...sand..."
The broom made of thin bamboo branches swept across the stone pavement, making a rhythmic sound that was somewhat out of tune with the tense and solemn overall atmosphere.
"Hey! Young man, please move aside and let me clean up the fallen leaves on the ground first."
The old woman held her waist with one hand and raised her head with difficulty to look at the several tall bodyguards guarding the door.
"Ok?"
"Hey! Old lady, can't you see that we are guarding our important posts? Don't come and make trouble, go away! Otherwise, wait..."
"Snapped!"
Before the young bodyguard could finish his words, he was slapped hard on the back of his head by a middle-aged bodyguard behind him.
"Ouch! Captain, why did you hit me suddenly!?"
The young bodyguard who was beaten asked, covering his head.
"What? What are you doing? You are so rude! You usually treat your family like this..."
The middle-aged bodyguard was about to ask if the other party treated his parents and elders like this on weekdays? But then he thought that these guys seemed to be orphans, and their families had long been gone because of war, famine, pirate raids and other natural disasters.
"Ahem! It seems that the only way to persuade him is with love!"
The captain of the bodyguards swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth, then stepped forward and kicked the young man out.
"Boom!"
"You little bastard! Get out of here!"
The captain clapped his hands, walked forward to support the old woman and smiled.
"Hahaha, I'm really sorry, grandma. The new young man is ignorant. Please don't bother with him."
"You're being too harsh. He was conscientious in sticking to his post and there was nothing he did wrong."
"Yes, yes, yes! You are right, I was too excited, but don't worry, young man, I am in good health and can take a beating!"
The captain of the bodyguards spoke respectfully, and then reached out and held the broom in the old woman's hand.
"You can go back and have a rest first, and we will take care of the rest!"
"Oh, no, no, it's just sweeping the floor. My old bones are still strong enough, I don't need anyone's help."
The old woman's skinny fingers tightly grasped the broom and refused to let go. The tall and strong bodyguard captain did not dare to snatch it forcefully. He could only think for a moment before asking.
"By the way, mother-in-law, didn't the boss tell us to arrange a sumptuous family dinner in the backyard after today's meeting? I wonder how the kitchen is preparing it?"
"Ouch! Oh no! How could I have almost forgotten about this!"
The old woman then hurriedly let go.
"Then I'll leave this place to you. I have to go to the kitchen first!"
"Yes! Mother-in-law, please go, so that they won't make any mistakes!"
"Oh, by the way, my silly son should be here today too. I'm going to cook and fry his favorite spicy fat worms!"
The old woman turned and walked into the yard while muttering.
"Okay, please walk slower."
The middle-aged bodyguard shouted a reminder behind him.
"Ah, Captain, who was that old woman just now?"
"Yes! Even you have to respect her so much..."
"Could it be the boss's old mother...?"
"That's not right. I remember the boss said he was an orphan like us, right?"
A few young people nearby couldn't help but surround the captain and ask curiously.
"Alright! Go back to your posts! Don't forget that you are on duty now! What does it look like to whisper to each other?"
The captain started to scold, interrupting the discussion of several people.
"Don't speculate about things you shouldn't know! Respecting the elderly and loving the young is basic morality. Except for enemies, you should all show some respect to the elderly in the future!"
"Yes! Captain!"
"Everyone, cheer up! Today is an important day! We must not make any mistakes. We represent the image of the headquarters! We can't let the people in the branch look down on us!"
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, several people were like being injected with chicken blood, and they hurriedly stood at attention with their chests straightened and stomachs tightened.
