Pirate System

Chapter 436: Negotiation in the Fog

This sudden change interrupted the battle between the two groups. mChen Shuyi's daughter was kidnapped, and she no longer had the intention to fight against the pirates. Xiao Qingfeng was just invited to assist, and everything was subject to Chen Shuyi's arrangements. If Chen Shuyi said he wouldn't fight, he would naturally stop fighting.

Although Zheng Long didn't care much about the life and death of Chen Shuyi's family, Chen Shuyi mentioned the Japanese pirates, so he agreed to stop and wanted to know the specific situation. Both groups stopped fighting, and Tang Ke also retracted his sword. He was now considered a master, so he had to show some master style.

Tang Ke and Xiao Qingfeng each took action, using their sword energy to roll up the sea water and extinguish the flames on the shore. The minions on both sides also stopped their hands obediently, and everything became quiet in front of the White Shark Village.

Several ruthless characters from both sides gathered together and stood on a small boat.

"Zheng Long, let's not fight today." Chen Shuyi said with a livid face.

"You said you won't fight if you don't want to fight? This time you came to my door to provoke me first." Although Zheng Long is not willing to kill each other with his compatriots, today it was Chen Shuyi who made the first attack, and there are already many dead people in Baisha Village. Young brother.

"My daughter Chen Zhiyun was kidnapped by Kato Nobunaga. He restricted me to go to the Moon Country to redeem her within ten days, otherwise he would kill my daughter. It has been a day and a half now. If I delay any longer, I will not be able to catch up. Save my daughter. You and I have similar fighting abilities. If we continue to fight, we will both lose. Why don't we stop fighting today? After all, our ultimate goal is the same, to fight against the Japanese pirates." Although Chen Shuyi's expression was grim, But his tone was already condescending.

Zheng Long remained silent, pondering for a moment and then slowly said: "It's okay to stop, but you have to promise me not to cause trouble to White Shark Village in the future."

"This... okay. But you have to take the people to another place to settle down, and the name Xingyi Tuan has to be changed, otherwise I won't be able to explain to the court." Chen Shuyi was concerned about his daughter's safety, and even made such a request. accepted.

"Okay, I'll take people out of here in a few days."

"Thank you very much." Chen Shuyi clasped his fists and turned to leave.

"Wait! I have something else to say."

"Please speak." Chen Shuyi stopped.

"We met Kato Nobunaga's younger brother Kato Shikama yesterday, captured this man, and put him in a cell on the ship. Your daughter was captured by Kato Nobunaga, and you can use this man in exchange. If you don't have it in your hands As for the chips, Kato Nobunaga will definitely open his mouth.

They might force you to do something outrageous. You are the naval general in this area. If you obey Kato Nobunaga's command, the consequences will be disastrous. Zheng Long said with a serious face.

"Do you have Kato Lushan on your hands?" Chen Shuyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and the dark clouds on his face were swept away.

"That's right, it was Kato Lushan who was captured by Brother Tang." Zheng Long pointed at Tang Ke.

Tang Ke was noncommittal and observed the changes in the situation. Most of his thoughts were on the spring of life in Xiao Qingfeng's body. For him, this was the most important thing.

"If you can hand over Kato Lushan to me in exchange for my daughter's life, I'd be really grateful." Chen Shuyi bowed to the end, bending his waist to a ninety-degree angle.

The enemies who were fighting to the death just now turned into a relationship of mutual help in the blink of an eye. The officers and soldiers standing in the distance opened their eyes in shock when they saw the general bowing to the enemy.

"Don't thank me too early. I'm not helping you unconditionally. I'll hand over Kato Lushan to you, and you have to agree to a condition." Zheng Long's eyes stern.

"What conditions?"

"Join our Xingyi Group and take this opportunity to eliminate the Qingmen Group in one fell swoop!" Zheng Long said loudly.

…

The night was shrouded in darkness, as endless as the sea.

Tang Ke stood on the port side of the Dragon King, with his arms resting on the guardrail, looking at the undulating sea and counting the stars scattered on the sea. The few people in the boat were discussing how to deal with Kato Nobunaga, each holding their own opinions, making their faces red and thick necks. He was not interested in this, so he walked out and ran here to get some fresh air.

The reason why he got involved in this matter was because he was thinking about Xiao Qingfeng's resurrection fountain. He wants to get this resurrection spring, but he is not in a hurry to do it now. If he kills Xiao Qingfeng now, the alliance between the two parties will definitely be broken, and then there will be no way to deal with Kato Nobunaga. Even if he wants to kill Xiao Qingfeng and seize the Resurrection Fountain, he has to wait until the matter is settled.

If he could also get the Fountain of Body, Tang Ke would have six resurrection springs, leaving only the Fountain of Death, which was the most difficult to obtain. When the seven resurrection springs are gathered together, no one knows what will happen.

"Brother Tang, do you have time?" Xiao Qingfeng's voice came from behind.

Tang Ke laughed dumbly. He was thinking about Xiao Qingfeng, but Xiao Qingfeng himself showed up.

"I have time, what's wrong?" Tangke asked.

"I want to ask about the current in my body." Xiao Qingfeng said bluntly.

"Don't you know anything about this spring?"

"Well, nothing."

"Haha, that's great." Tang Ke gloated and smiled. The less Xiao Qingfeng knows, the better. It can save a lot of trouble.

"What's so good about it?"

"Haha, it's no good." Tang Ke said perfunctorily in order to send Xiao Qingfeng away, "Okay, after we eliminate the Qingmen Group, I will tell you about this spring, but now I don't want to say anything. .”

"It's a deal?"

"Well, it's a deal."

Xiao Qingfeng is also a happy person, so since Tang Ke left the message, he will not ask further questions. He cupped his hands towards Tang Ke and left quietly.

Tang Ke stood there for a while, and suddenly heard a wailing sound from the Dragon King's cabin. He judged that it was Kato Lushan's voice, and it must be Zheng Long and the others who were extracting a confession. Tang Ke had nothing to do and planned to go over and take a look. He walked down the gangway and reached the cell in the cabin. This cell was made of metal and airtight. There were two minions guarding the door. The minions had seen Tang Ke take action, knew how powerful Tang Ke was, and admired Tang Ke very much. They got out of the way and opened the door without asking.

There were not many people in the cell. Zheng Long and Chen Shuyi were inside, and there were two other men nearby. The prisoner Kato Shikama was handcuffed to the iron wall. It is estimated that after this group of people finished their discussion, they rushed here directly.

The Japanese pirates committed many evil deeds, harassed the people, and were hated by others. Kato Lushan fell into the hands of the people of Wuzhou, and he was inevitably punished by corporal punishment. Both of his arms were chopped off by Tang Ke, but the two sides were not free. Zheng Long and the others used chains to penetrate each other. You can imagine the pain he endured.

In addition to venting his anger by corporally punishing Kato Kato, Zheng Long also wanted to pry out some useful information from Kato Kato's mouth, such as the composition of the Aomen group, the location of the lair, what weaknesses there are, and Kato Nobunaga's specific strength. etc.

But no matter what kind of punishment he received, Kato Shikama always refused to cooperate. He would either curse or laugh weirdly, or scream a few times when he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Quickly tell me! What is your brother's weakness!" Zheng Long asked with his eyes widened, and he whipped Kato Lushan with a whip, taking off a piece of flesh, and a few drops of blood spattered out and fell to the ground.

"Haha, my brother's weakness is that he doesn't get close to women. Every time we play with girls from Wuzhou, he doesn't help." Kato Shikama replied with a smile. His bright red face matched the laughter, which was really a bit scary. people.

"How dare you speak so harshly!" Zheng Long was furious, threw away the whip, grabbed the red iron from the brazier, and scalded Kato Kato's chest hard. Hearing a hissing sound, Kato's wound was burned. A big piece was burnt.

"Ah!" Kato Shikama shouted, his eyes bulging.

"If you don't cooperate again, I will burn your mouth with this!" Zheng Long withdrew the soldering iron, and a strange smell came out of the top of the soldering iron.

"Haha, this is really exciting, just like a girl from Wuzhou Kingdom." Kato Lushan looked at Zheng Long with wolf-like eyes, "Do you have anything more exciting? Hurry up and use it on grandpa. Let grandpa enjoy it.”

Zheng Long simply stopped talking and started fighting directly. He used all the available torture instruments in the room, but he still couldn't convince Kato Shikama.

"Haha, I have killed countless people in my life and slept with countless women. No matter how you calculate it, I am good enough. Even if I die in this room today, I don't care!" Kato Shikama still said adamantly.

Although Tang Ke hated Japanese pirates, he had to admire Kato Kato's ruthlessness. Kato Kato was simply a cold-blooded beast who didn't care about other people's lives or his own.

However, the physical bodies of all high-level masters are several times stronger than ordinary people. Ordinary physical pain cannot shake their spirits at all. Even if Kato Shikama is beaten to death, he will not bow his head.

"Okay, stop hitting him. If you hit him again, he will be killed." Chen Shuyi couldn't stand it anymore and raised his hand to stop Zheng Long. Of course, he was not soft-hearted, but he was worried that Kato Lushan would not have the chips to exchange for his after his death. daughter.

"This bastard is really hateful. He has killed so many people from the Five Continents. Even if he died a hundred times, it wouldn't be an exaggeration!" Zheng Long was so angry that he was breathing heavily, and his chest felt like a bellows.

"This little flesh wound won't trouble him. It's better to leave him to me. I know some ways to destroy the spirit, maybe I can make him talk." Tang Ke spoke, walked slowly to the front, stepped on the dry The blood stains were slightly slippery.

Zheng Long had tried his best, but there was no other good way to do, so he stepped aside. Chen Shuyi heard that this was only a criminal law that destroyed the spirit, so he didn't stop him.

Tangke called up Barr, the demon lord in the spiritual world, and asked Barr to help cast the spell. He took off the staff he carried with him, held it with both hands, and injected the power of shadow into it. He closed his eyes and concentrated on it. The mental fluctuations of the people around him appeared in his mind, like balls of flames. Kato Shikama was seriously injured and mentally weak. The flames were so weak that they were almost extinguished.

Tang Ke muttered something, and the power of the shadow in his mind rushed out, hugging Kato Shikama's spirit and squeezing it hard.

This spell is called pain. It is an entry-level spell for warlocks. It is not advanced and is easy to learn. As the name suggests, this spell is used to cause pain to people, and the degree of pain far exceeds the physical pain, as if there are tens of thousands of ants biting the flesh and blood all over the body.

Tang Ke once used this spell to torture a huge sea monster. As a result, the sea monster died in less than three minutes and died of pain!

"Ah!!!" Kato Shikama wailed, the sound was more than ten times more horrifying than before, making people feel hairy.

Several people nearby were startled by the sound, especially the two underlings, who were so frightened that they took a step back. They had seen people being executed many times, but they had never heard such a tragic scream. .

"I didn't expect you, Brother Tang, to know this kind of witchcraft." Zheng Long glanced at Tang Ke strangely, with a hint of awe in his eyes. He could finally see that it would be worse for the enemy to fall into Tang Ke's hands than to fall into his own hands.

Tang Ke concentrated on casting spells and didn't hear these words at all.

Time passed by second by second, and every second was a kind of torture for Kato Shikayama. He kept yelling, his throat was broken, and blood was vomiting out of his mouth.

"Are you willing to say it?" Tonk asked.

Kato Kayama kept shouting and couldn't answer at all.

"If you agree to cooperate with us, just nod. As long as you nod, I won't torture you. After all, your screams are unpleasant." Tang Ke said.

Kato Shikama's scream decreased slightly. He glared at Tang Ke, but refused to nod.

It was clear that the other party did not compromise, but Tang Ke still stopped the spell and released Kato Shikama's spirit. Kato Shikama breathed a sigh of relief, his head drooped, and he kept moaning.

"He didn't nod, why did you stop?" Zheng Long asked in confusion.

"If he doesn't stop, he will be tortured to death. He has very hard bones and cannot make him succumb through torture. Let's forget it." Tang Ke took back his staff and patted Zheng Long on the shoulder. He walked straight out of the cell, leaving behind an unwilling Zheng Long and two stunned minions.

…

Seven days later, on the sea near the Moon Kingdom, the Black Pearl, the Thieves, the Dragon King and a dozen ordinary ships stayed quietly, waiting for the arrival of Kato Nobunaga.

The Moon Kingdom is Kato Nobunaga's territory, and there are Japanese pirates everywhere. They will not agree to negotiate there, so they chose the sea to negotiate and sent a letter to Kato Nobunaga in the Moon Kingdom.

"Why haven't the Japanese pirates come yet? Could it be that they haven't received the letter?" Chen Shuyi said anxiously, pacing back and forth on the bow of the ship, like an ant on a hot pot, suffering deeply. Xiao Qingfeng on the side said nothing, staring at the sea silently.

The group of them was not all together. Zheng Long was on his own ship, while Tang Ke was on the Black Pearl, each guarding his own flagship.

A heavy fog suddenly rose from the sea. The fog rolled in, like a herd of white beasts, swallowing the sea surface directly.

"They are coming! This fog must be caused by Kato Nobunaga's 'Bunche Yaoki'!" Zheng Long shouted, and everyone cheered up. The sailors crowded onto the deck, and there was no atmosphere. Dare to breathe.

"The obstructive fog." Tang Ke pulled out his sword with a clang, swung it fiercely, and slashed out a ball of sword energy, sweeping across the sea in front, blowing away all the fog, and vaguely revealing the shadow of a ship.

As soon as the fog dissipated, a thicker fog immediately appeared.

Tang Ke no longer insisted on dispersing the fog, but used the investigation technique in the direction of the ship. This ship is the Wenche Enchantress, a third-level magical ship with two abilities. One is to create mist, and the other is quite weird. It can actually use the hair of the bow statue to entangle enemy ships. There is a wraith on the bow of the Wenche Yaoji. The hair that sticks out is so powerful that it can wrap up enemy ships and crush them to pieces.

Kato Nobunaga only brought one ship this time and did not bring any extra ships. He was a little overconfident and a little confident. Anyway, Chen Zhiyun was in his hands.

Thick fog covered Tang Ke's group's fleet, the visibility was less than ten meters, and only hazy shadows could be seen between the ships.

"Everyone, if something happens, just shout out!" Zheng Long shouted, and people on the surrounding boats responded one after another.

The Bunche Enchantress sailed out of the fog and stopped in front of the Dragon King. Kato Nobunaga's figure could be vaguely seen at the bow.

Tang Ke used the investigation technique on Kato Nobunaga and found out the depth of this person. This guy is a seventh-level ninja. His single strength is one head higher than him. He is a difficult enemy to deal with. At the same time, he also activated the special profession of ninja, which is equivalent to a mixture of thieves and assassins, and is quite powerful.

In this negotiation, Tang Ke's side was represented by Chen Shuyi. He shouted to the opposite side: "Kato Nobunaga! Your brother is in my hands, and my daughter is in your hands. Let's make an exchange. !”

"It can be exchanged, but you have to let me see my brother first, right?" Kato Nobunaga said unhurriedly, with a calmer attitude than Chen Shuyi.

"Of course." Chen Shuyi glanced at Zheng Long's boat. Zheng Long nodded and ordered people to bring the half-dead Kato Shikama up.

When Kato Nobunaga saw his younger brother's broken arm, his pupils suddenly shrank, and there was a chilling light in his eyes. He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "You actually cut off his arm!"

"Compared to the bad things he has done, this punishment is nothing." Zheng Long said with a snort.

"You will pay for this!"

"It's not your turn to say this. If you had to pay back the debt for what you did, your brothers would have died ten thousand times!"

"I'm too lazy to argue with you. Who will win? We'll find out when the time comes."

Both sides fell silent, looking at each other fiercely, and countless sparks were created invisibly.

"I showed you your brother, now it's your turn to show me my daughter." Chen Shuyi broke the deadlock.

Kato Nobunaga ordered Chen Zhiyun to be brought here. On the surface, the girl did not suffer much damage. The Japanese pirates who were taking the prisoner pulled off the cotton cloth from Chen Zhiyun's mouth, and Chen Zhiyun shouted loudly, "Father."

The father and daughter had been suffering from mental torture these days, and they finally reunited today. Chen Shuyi was feeling better, but Chen Zhiyun was still a child and cried at that time. The father and daughter exchanged a few words across the sea, and Chen Zhiyun said that she had not been abused.

"Kato Nobunaga! Let my daughter go quickly!" Chen Shuyi shouted.

"I can let your daughter go, but you have to agree to two conditions." Kato Nobunaga said.

"You release my daughter, and I will release your brother. We will exchange one for the other. What other terms do you want to negotiate?"

"It's true that one person is replaced by another, but I gave you an intact daughter, and you gave me a disabled brother. Is this fair?" Kato Nobunaga narrowed his eyes.

"This..." Chen Shuyi was speechless.

"Do you want me to chop off your daughter's arm and give it back to you?"

"No! Never!" Chen Shuyi said in a panic.

"Well, since you don't want to, I will give you another choice. First of all, you have to ensure the safety of my brother and let him return to the Moon Kingdom on the date I selected. Secondly, you have to promise me that the navy will be in a No operations are allowed to be carried out against Japanese pirates within this month, and Japanese pirates are allowed to plunder at will along the coast of Wuzhou Kingdom!" Kato Nobunaga stated his two demands.

"What?" Chen Shuyi and others changed their colors when they heard this. The first request is easy to handle, but the second request is too difficult. If the navy stays put for a month, then within this month, the coastal areas of Wuzhou Kingdom will become a hell on earth. I don’t know how many people there will be. Loss of life.

"No! We can't agree to this condition! If you are willing to exchange, just exchange. If you don't want to exchange, forget it. Anyway, one life is worth one!" Zheng Long was the first to jump out and object.

"Haha, one life is worth another! Brother, you don't have to worry about my life or death. I've killed so many people, I've already earned enough. After I die, you have to entertain that little girl for me, let me Let her taste the bliss of the world." Kato Shikama said with a sinister smile.

Chen Shuyi shuddered and his face turned blue and white. If things really develop to that point, his daughter will definitely die! He felt extremely regretful. He really shouldn't have brought his daughter here in the first place.

"You have also heard that my brother is not afraid of death at all. If you don't agree to my conditions, I don't mind a death blow." Kato Nobunaga said coldly.

"If a fish dies in a net, a fish will die in a net. Who is afraid of whom!" Zheng Long wished he could have a fight with Kato Nobunaga. He knew that sooner or later he would be dealt with by the court. Instead of dying in the hands of his compatriots, it would be better to die with the Japanese pirates. At least he could deal with them. Wuzhouguo made some contributions.

Zheng Long was barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes, but Chen Shuyi was different.

"Zheng Long, shut up, I will decide this matter!" Chen Shuyi glared at Zheng Long across the sea.

Kato Lushan looked like he was watching a good show, and said with a smile: "Being a father is different. You must feel sorry for your daughter, right? Don't worry, we men in the Moon Country are very gentle towards women and will not bully your daughter, haha !”

"Be honest!" Zheng Long kicked Kato Shikama hard, knocking Kato Shikama to the ground.

Tang Ke had been listening and did not join in, but now he had to step forward.

"Kato Nobunaga! We already know your conditions, but in this situation, no one among us can make the decision. We must discuss it before giving you an answer. How about this. Give us one night and wait until daytime tomorrow When the time comes, we will meet here again and we will give you an answer then, what do you think?" Tang Kerang said loudly.

Kato Nobunaga was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay. I will give you one night. You can think about it carefully before giving me an answer. But let me tell you in advance that the conditions I have offered will not be changed. , you can only have two answers, yes or no!"

Chen Shuyi was worried about his daughter's safety and was already confused. He also hoped to have some time to relax and think about countermeasures.

The Wenche Enchantress turned around, retreated into the mist, and slowly disappeared. After a while, even the sound of sailing disappeared.

After Kato Nobunaga left, Tang Ke and others gathered together and held a meeting.

"Kato Nobunaga is more powerful than any of us. He still has hostages in his hands. It is really difficult to handle. It is impossible for us to win completely. We will inevitably suffer losses. You guys should discuss it. What are you going to do?" Tang Ke left the mess to the other three.

"No matter what, we cannot agree to Kato Nobunaga's second request, and we cannot allow the people along the coast to be sacrificed. Under this premise, I will agree to whatever decision is made." Zheng Long turned his head and looked away.

"You can't sacrifice the people, but you can't sacrifice my daughter either." Chen Shuyi's attitude was also extremely determined.

Xiao Qingfeng was invited by Chen Shuyi to help. It was not convenient for him to make a decision, so he chose to remain silent.

This question is really difficult to choose. No matter which way you choose, someone will be sacrificed, but the number of sacrifices will be more or less.

Several people in the room fell silent, avoiding this difficult choice. Time passed bit by bit, and a full half hour was wasted.

"Which of you should make a decision?" Tang Ke urged.

"Otherwise, let's pretend to agree to Kato Nobunaga's request and let the navy stand still, but notify the coastal residents in advance and let them retreat to the inland areas early to hide. In this way, the Japanese pirates will not be able to grab them when they arrive on the shore. What. As for the people's losses, I will make up for it with my own money. What do you think of this idea?" Chen Shuyi asked dryly, as if he had aged several years in an hour.

"No, the Japanese pirates are not fools. If they fail to grab the money or kill someone, they will definitely not give up. They may even become angry and threaten you even more. As long as your daughter is in their hands, don't worry about it. Use this little trick to solve the problem." Tang Ke shook his head and objected.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"I have an idea, but the risk is very high. Your daughter's life has to be used as a bet." Tang Ke looked at Chen Shuyi, "I wonder if you dare to bet?"

"What kind of gambling method?" Chen Shuyi's throat moved.

"I will lead two people to sneak into the Japanese pirates' lair at night and rescue your daughter. Then we will launch a general attack together, rush ashore in one breath, and kill all the Japanese pirates here. If everything goes well, your daughter and the nearby people will be safe." Everything is safe, if we fail, your daughter will be in danger."

"This..." Chen Shuyi was in trouble. He didn't want his daughter to bear the slightest risk.

"Actually, you have no other choice at all. You can't allow the Japanese pirates to act recklessly for a month, and you can't ignore your daughter's life and death, so you can only choose to take risks." After Tang Ke finished speaking, Xiao Qingfeng next to him nodded. There is no other way to go.

"Okay then. Just do as you say." Chen Shuyi nodded with difficulty.

"Ding! You triggered the rescue mission. The mission goal is to rescue Chen Shuyi's daughter Chen Zhiyun. The mission reward is 6,000 reward points." At the same time, the system prompt sounded.
