153 Three Years
After packing away all the loot as quickly as possible, Mu ordered the elves to cut through the bottom of the opponent's boat, and then left directly.
When they returned to the Black Pearl, there were already enemy warships coming to support them in their field of vision.
However, soon, the Black Pearl retracted the hook line, raised the sail, and the superior speed quickly drove the enemy away, leaving only a distant background in the rain.
The two ships that came to support saw that their own side had no chance at all in terms of speed, so they quickly gave up the pursuit and chose to rescue their colleagues first.
It's just that they will soon find out that many high-level officers on the ship in need of rescue are missing...
About an hour later, after sailing far enough away from the sea area where the incident occurred, the long-winged gulls and toucans in the sky fell back in batches and returned to the deck like swallows returning to their nests.
The rain curtain also dissipated, the dark clouds gradually parted, and the sun was just right.
It was also at this time that the captain who attacked the warship just now gradually woke up from his lethargy, and opened his eyes in confusion.
"Where am I...where?"
After waking up, he quickly found that his hands and feet were tied with hemp rope, and what appeared before him was a completely unfamiliar cabin.
Seeing that he was awake, the guarding warriors immediately released their elves to notify the captain.
After a while, Mu brought all the high-level officials on the ship down to the cabin.
The tied captain immediately recognized Mu and the others.
"It's you?! What do you... want to do?!"
It was strange enough for the pirates to take the initiative to attack the navy, but they tied themselves up after the fight. What exactly did they want to do?
The captain who was tied up didn't know what to think, and suddenly his face was terrified, he moved back, and tightened his gluteus maximus...
Mu didn't care about the divergent thinking of the other party, who was full of philosophical meaning, and asked straight to the point.
"Which fleet do you belong to? Know Bogsard?"
The tied captain froze for a moment.
Mu then gestured to the navigator Sibul with his eyes.
Three seconds later, the captain who was tied up gave a full account.
"I... We belong to the Southern Fleet. Bogsad does not belong to our fleet. He is the general of the Western Fleet. He used to be the deputy commander of the fleet. I don't know the specific position. I know this, really!"
"Then is there any news about Bogsad recently?" Mu asked again.
"Yes... yes!"
This time the captain who was tied up answered very quickly, and it felt like he was about to rush to answer.
"A few months ago, Bogsard sailed without authorization and had a conflict with a capital ship of the Windmillia Kingdom. At that time, the incident was quite a big deal, and the Windmillia's navy even came to put pressure on it and demanded an explanation.
Originally, we were not afraid of them. The navy over there has been suppressed by us for so many years, and its strength is far worse than ours! "
Speaking of which, the captain who was tied up here was elated, and suddenly found that the surrounding atmosphere seemed a bit wrong, and he shuddered inexplicably.
So he quickly skipped this paragraph and continued.
"But I don't know why. During that time, Bogsad has been vague and unwilling to explain why he caused the conflict, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the senior management of the fleet. In the end, he was simply punished. After that, he exchanged a batch of prisoners with the windmill, and the matter ended like this."
"Don't want to explain the reason?" Mu frowned and repeated a sentence.
The news was mixed.
The good thing is that they will most likely not have to worry about being hunted down by the entire Gardenia Kingdom in the future.
Bogsard still seems to intend to solve the problem in a private way, not to expose the fact that he is greedy for ink and accepting private work.
Mu clearly remembered that when Bogsard appeared in front of his side for the first time, he confessed frankly that he wanted to come over to deal with him only after receiving Ralph's money.
Ralph was a shareholder in the Silver Corporation, which in turn was a colonial corporation with an official Gardenia Kingdom background.
If they want to resolve this matter through official channels, the entire Gardenia Kingdom's navy may have received orders to encircle and suppress them.
But the reality is no.
This gives them a lot more space for activities at sea, which is good news.
But the bad side is: Bogsard obviously knows that they are not dead, and still hasn't given up on spying on them.
Otherwise, it is impossible for him to be willing to bear punishment and conceal his purpose of action.
Faced with this mixed news, Mu fell into deep thought for a moment.
At this moment, the captain who was tied up said again: "In addition, Bogsad was seriously injured in that conflict, and he has been recuperating since returning from the sea, so after the punishment, he was simply temporarily relieved of all duties. He hadn't been reinstated before we went to sea this time."
"Is Bogsad injured?" Mu couldn't help asking.
It was the first time he knew this news today.
At the end of that battle, he could only escape by boat in embarrassment, and he didn't even see the end of the battle.
Now when he heard the news, he felt unbelievable, sad and heartbroken. Many complicated emotions were intertwined, and he was choked up in his heart for a while, and it was difficult to express.
"Um, yes." The captain who was tied up didn't know this, so he replied in a straightforward manner.
After a long silence, Mu suddenly whispered, "Thank you."
The captain who was tied up thought this sentence was a thank you, and immediately said with a stick: "It's okay, you're welcome, that, since you've finished asking, can you let me go? I promise I won't say anything when I go back."
However, at this time Mu had already turned his head.
"Hey, wait, don't go! Let me go! I'll go back and promise not to say anything, I swear! No, let me join you!"
However, Mu at this time is no longer the young boy he was back then.
He turned his head and explained to Sible: "Go and interrogate those officers again to check whether the information is consistent. If there is no problem, you can deal with these people."
"it is good."
Sibley smiled happily, his expression full of anticipation.
After that, Mu returned to the captain's cabin, and after a while, Orr knocked on the door and came in.
Orr was also there when he questioned the kidnapped captain just now, and he heard all those words.
At this time, this man who usually looks a little naive, with a dark and simple face, has a rare dignified expression.
Mu Neng guessed his purpose and opened his mouth as soon as he entered the door.
"I know what you think, but it's too irrational to seek revenge on Bogsad now. Even if he is injured, we can't defeat his Gyarados. It's just to die."
Al opened his mouth and was speechless for a while.
"The period when he was injured was our most precious golden period, during which we could move freely on the sea without any qualms.
The most correct thing for us to do next should be to eliminate hidden dangers as much as possible, cut off the media and clues he used to track us, so that he can no longer find us easily after his reinstatement! "
This is exactly what Mu originally planned to do.
After learning the news of Bogsard's injury, the approach he conceived can be more radical and free from scruples.
But that wasn't what Orr wanted to hear at all.
"Then, when are you going to take revenge?"
Mu raised his head and looked directly into Orr's eyes.
"If you believe me, within three years, we will definitely cut off that bastard's head!"
This is not only the answer to Orr, but also the goal he has set for himself.
After a brief silence, Orr replied briefly, "Okay."
Then turn around and leave.
