章節 61: Chapter 130 Too Late
(WSG) "You won't give me the satisfaction? Well, I think I was just about done with you all anyway. Guards, kill them now." Wu San Gui ordered.
At this point, there was nothing that Baron, Guan Yu, nor Yue Fei could do to stop their predicament. They had no army, no ships, no sign of reinforcements, and no way of getting out. They already knew for sure that Wu San Gui would not allow escape after all he did to capture them in the first place. Meaning, there would be appropriate safeguards from letting them flee.
This was the end of their run, and as they were executed, they saw an armada of ships that had the sign of the Forever Pirates that seemed neverending. There was only one thought in their minds, they were not able to hold on long enough for them to get reinforcements. Wu San Gui relished the deaths of some of the people he hated most on planet 4, then turned around only to be in shock at what he saw, an entire fleet that outnumbered his own at least 10:1.
Baron, Guan Yu, and Yue Fei were instantly transported back to planet 4 to the bewilderment of many others in the tournament that had died just before them. Though this run of theirs had not been as fruitful as in the aerial tournament, they were quite happy with the fact that they were able to push Wu San Gui, a member of Vesper that was known for being Naval masters, to such an extent as they did. The three of them talked for a bit before splitting up to get their own businesses sorted out. Baron would continue to watch the tournament while Guan Yu and Yue Fei would both check in on their elderly duties.
Baron reckoned that the three of them would not even be able to receive any prizes, much less any recognition for the performance that they put up. He looked back up at the broadcast that was showing the tournament that was still going on after they had been killed. It showed what had happened moments after their deaths.
The armada that bore the crest of the Forever Pirates were actually the forces of Zi Bo and Zi Ji Ge along with the elders of the Forever Pirates that they had gone to go warn of their plans. Zi Ji Ge had a brief talk with Wu San Gui asking about what they had done to Baron and the other two. Once she learned of their fate, her brother took a part of his own fleet to deal with Wu San Gui.
Now, his ships were far more powerful than anything Wu San Gui had, so just 100 of Zi Bo's ships were able to take on and win against nearly 700 or so of the ironclads. Granted, the ironclads were battered from days of battle, and the ones that weren't damaged were still no match for Zi Bo's mighty fleet.
What took Baron everything he had to fend off Wu San Gui, was dealt with by Zi Bo in just a few hours. After this slight diversion, they all headed to Madam Zheng's position to tell her of the news of the arrival of the elders as well as the execution of Baron. The meeting that followed was a meeting between titans of naval warfare, most of which had been a part of Madam Zheng's crew when they were all alive.
(MZ) "Well, it took you guys quite a few days but you finally made it. Give me a status report." Madam Zheng spoke to everyone.
(ZJG) "Well, while we were sneaking past the Vesper's territory, we got word from our spies that Wu San Gui was targeting Baron. So my brother and I, along with a few other elders who had a grudge against that little gremlin went to go and relieve Baron. Once we got there, we learned that we had just missed saving Baron, Guan Yu, and Yue Fei." Zi Ji Ge started.
(ZB) "Then I took a hundred of my ships and took him out of the equation." Zi Bo said reserved.
(MZ) "Any damages to your ships?"
(ZB) "3 that need serious repairs and 10 that need slight repairs."
(MZ) "Impressive as always. What about the rest of you lot? How was your experience when you were constantly being harassed by the Vesper's?"
"Not too bad, I'm just glad that they didn't send anyone of higher ability than the ones that they did or else we would have been done for."
"He speaks the truth, the only people that were coming after us were mostly people who wanted a challenge and those who only had a little bit of skill."
"It appears as though the Vesper's were not really invested in us, that's why they chose not to spend that many resources in taking us down."
"More like they didn't spend any on us. Have none of you realized that despite all the effort that they spent to box us in, they sure were pretty lax in letting us escape. Even if we did manage to do it in complete secrecy."
(MZ) "That is pretty concerning, but you shouldn't worry about such trivial matters now. You are all here, and I'm assuming that the others will arrive shortly as well. Rest for today, we have work to do starting from tomorrow onwards."
(ZJG) "Hold on, the other group that we split up from should have gotten here already, are you saying that they have not gotten here yet?"
(MZ) "That's right."
(ZJG) "We were delayed by Wu San Gui, that should have given the other group ample time to come here before us. What happened to them to cause them to get here so late?" As soon as she finished speaking, a messenger arrived with some news.
"Message from the group of elders, we require urgent reinforcements. We have been surrounded by many elders of Vesper, and this is nothing but a guess, but we reckon that their leader is among those who are participating as well. There is nobody who could toy with us as he does. I repeat, urgent help requested."
