A Pirate's Counting Life

Chapter 128 Destruction

"What's the matter? I'm busy!"

Hearing the chewing sound coming from the other end of the phone, Mark resisted the urge to complain and whispered, "The branch in Harvey's sea area was wiped out, and Lieutenant General Modi's head was taken away by them..."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then a ferocious face like a hungry ghost from hell was simulated by the phone bug

"Damn pirate! Do you know who did it?"

"I don't know. There are no pirate tattoos on the bodies left at the scene. That's why we didn't find the pirate flag."

"Destroy all the pirates in Harvey's waters!"

After hearing Hals's indifferent words, Mark said softly, "I can only say that I will try my best. After all, I only have one warship."

Mark hung up the phone and watched as the sailors piled the corpses of their colleagues together and burned them all on fire.

Mark asked people to load all the supplies that could be found on the island onto the warship, and then ordered the warship to head to the next island, hoping to find some clues.

One day later, Mark stood up and came to the bow of the ship to look at the small black dot in the distance. When he was still one mile away from the island, Mark turned his head and glanced at Shirley. When he saw the other person shaking his head, he sighed with some disappointment.

After the warship docked, three hundred sailors quickly disembarked and went to the towns on the island to collect information. Two hours later, a sailor came over holding a pirate flag.

"Major General, we found the flag of the Blood Sword Pirates in the town."

Mark took the flag, looked at it, and said softly, "Gather everyone, let's go to the next island."

Mark passed the information he got to Hals, and then wandered in the Harvey waters for ten days. In the end, he still couldn't find any trace of the Blood Sword Pirates. Just as Mark was about to order a return trip, the phone bug in his arms rang.

"We have been searching for ten days in the Harvey waters but have not found the Blood Sword Pirates. I am preparing to return!"

Hals on the other end of the phone whispered in a slightly tired voice.

"No need to look for it. I received information that the Blood Sword Pirates were destroyed by the Iron Arm Pirates in the Yelen Sea area."

Mark waited quietly for what Hals would say. The other end of the phone was silent for a while and then let out a heavy sigh.

"Lieutenant General Jeremiah relapsed from an old injury when he repelled the pirates yesterday. You go to the Jeremiah area to replace him."

"OK…"

After hanging up the phone, Mark rubbed his eyebrows irritably. The days of searching for people were finally over. Mark walked to the navigator and told him the new destination.

The sailors on the warship were relieved to hear that they no longer had to look for people. Ten days later, the warship docked at the port of Yelen Island. Lieutenant General Jeremiah stood at the port with a smile on his face.

"As expected of Kong's disciple, he has the strength of an elite lieutenant general at such a young age. I feel relieved to leave this place to...ahem...to you."

Jeremiah stretched out his left hand to cover his mouth and nose and coughed twice. Mark quickly stepped forward and supported Jeremiah.

"The new generation like us still needs the protection of you old-timers. Lieutenant General Jeremiah, you should pay more attention to your health."

Jeremiah smiled and shook his head, patted Mark's hand holding him and told him to let go.

"This is Major General Kenlidi. If there is anything you don't understand in the future, you can ask him."

Jeremiah pointed at a strong, dark-skinned man with a height of two meters in the team. When he saw Mark's eyes looking at him, Major General Kenlidi took two steps forward and extended his left hand to Mark.

"Nice to meet you, Major General Mark"

"Hello, Major General Kenlidi"

Mark smiled and shook hands with the other person. In order for Mark to quickly integrate into this place, Jeremiah specially held a banquet for Mark.

After eating and drinking, Mark and the others moved into the officer's dormitory. Early the next morning, Mark was taken to the office by Kenlidila. When he saw the pile of documents inside,

Mark suddenly understood Jeremiah's complicated smile last night, and he suddenly felt that being the top leader of a branch was not a pleasant thing.

The imagined scene of thousands of horses charging into battle with a wave of a big hand did not appear. Mark felt numb and wrote a big word "read" on the document.

"Um...Major General Mark, are you being a little too perfunctory..."

Mark ignored Kenlidi's words and pretended that he couldn't hear it. Suddenly a familiar name appeared in his sight. Mark pulled out the document with the name Gilia Island from the pile of documents and looked at the request for help message inside. Mark frown

"Send someone...no...I will go to Gilia Island myself to rescue"

Mark put the document on the table, stood up and looked at Kenlidi who was a little confused, and said softly, "That's where I joined the navy. When I'm not around, you will be solely responsible for everything on the island!"

Mark grabbed Kenlidi's shoulders and pushed him onto the seat. He made a cheering gesture towards the other person and then quickly left the office using Shaver.

"Xiao Li, I have to go out for a while. You can guard the base here. If nothing can be done, take Ophelia and the others away."

Shirley rubbed her eyes, nodded confusedly, and closed the door after Mark's back disappeared around the corner.

Mark quickly ran to the port. All the sailors except the three women were already in place. Mark walked onto the deck skillfully and looked at the disappearing island behind him. He felt a sense of returning rich to his hometown.

Gilia Island is a small island in the Yelen Sea. Because there is no oil and water, those powerful pirates will not waste time here.

Occasionally, several pirate groups with average strength come to fight against the autumn wind. Jelio can also teach them how to behave. Although Jelio is only a major, his strength has touched the threshold of the general level. Once he is promoted to lieutenant colonel, he will be Transferred to Yellen Island

Jerio has been refusing to be promoted in order not to leave his hometown, but yesterday they defeated a group of pirates and when they asked the captives for information, they discovered that the other party was actually a vassal of the Iron Arm Pirates.

When he thought that the opponent had two captains with the strength of a lieutenant general, Jelio regretted that he had not killed them all. He immediately asked the Yellen branch for help.

"Jerio, you have tried your best, don't blame yourself, the worst is to fight them!"

Bentley came to Jelio and patted his old friend's shoulder. He looked at the sea in the distance and said softly, "You and I both know that there are fighting everywhere now. It is impossible for Lieutenant General Jeremiah to leave Yellen Island to come to support." We and the others came for free.”

After hearing Bentley's words, Jelio turned his head, looked at him with a pair of red eyes, and said with some choking.

"But I'm not willing to do it... There are 5 people on the island, and we don't have that many ships to send them away. I really can't bear to watch them wait for death..."

Jelio grabbed Bentley's arm, and the unwillingness in his eyes seemed to be about to overflow. Bentley sighed helplessly.

"Pirates are plundering everywhere. Even if you want to send them away, where can they go? Since they will die anyway, it is better to die in your hometown."

Jelio's eyes flashed slightly. After a few seconds of silence, he shook his head and said softly, "Maybe you are right."

Jelio let go of Bentley's hand, turned around and walked towards the town. After entering the town, the residents greeted him with smiles, although they already knew what they were about to face.

But they didn't want this man who had selflessly dedicated himself to the island to see his panicked side. Jelio forced a smile, but tears still flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
