Chapter 73
Facing the armed Marine, these n.o.bles looked terrified.
In their eyes, Lin Tian didn’t look like a child anymore, but a fierce little devil. These n.o.bles thought that Lin Tian could just order the Marine Soldiers to kill them all.
All Marine Soldiers on board wait for a command from Lin Tian. When Lin Tian gave the signal to shoot, the Marine Soldiers would not hesitate to pull the trigger on their weapons and fire the bullets that had been prepared for a long time.
Seeing these n.o.bles now becoming silent, Lin Tian sniffed coldly.
“Lin Tian, you are great, can silence these people using only one hand.” Commodore Ander said.
“These aristocrats are just a bunch of cheap bones. They won’t shut their mouths and keep talking about trash if they don’t see a threat. You have to kill one or two of them to silence them.”
Ander nodded. Initially, I didn’t believe in these words, but now, after seeing this scene, it’s hard for Ander not to believe it.
“Put down your weapons,” Lin Tian put down his hand and ordered.
Seeing the Marine Soldiers lowering their weapons, these n.o.bles felt relieved, but inside, they were still angry with Lin Tian.
The cruise ship’s crews felt the same way, but to these n.o.bles, including the Captain, his face was as black as charcoal.
Do these n.o.bles have brains? They cannot fit the times and conditions with their egos. I really don’t understand how trash like them can become n.o.bles.
Isn’t it the most important thing now is to be able to survive. If you make Marine Soldiers angry, and Marine Soldiers give up their intention to help you, we will all be over.
The Captain turned around and saw the pirate ship that was very close behind him. A trace of worry appeared on his face, and at the same time, he was confused.
Now, these n.o.bles have been quiet. Shouldn’t the Marine Soldiers know that the pirates are getting closer now? Why did the Marine Soldiers not react to them at all?
The Captain saw the Marine Soldiers expression, suddenly shocked.
“To you, lowly Marine Soldiers, I am… an earl from a royal kingdom. You just blew away a prince of our kingdom. I think you should give us an explanation. Otherwise, we will report to our king …”
The prince’s death just now succeeded in depressing these people, but anger also accompanied it.
Hearing the threat from an earl, Lin Tian was not afraid but instead sneered. It seemed that these people didn’t understand the situation yet.
Lin Tian then shook his head and apologized sincerely.
“Really? I’m sorry, I thought he was just a dog, but I did not think that he was a prince. By having a prince like that, you must have a king who ….”
“Hey!” Hearing Lin Tian’s words, the Earl almost vomited blood. How presumptuous are you to speak like that? Where’s the apology? This clearly a line of ridicule?
Even though everyone could understand the meaning of Lin Tian’s words, none of them dared to say anything. They don’t want to be killed like that prince for no reason.
Lin Tian turned around and said, “Helping you guys is our job as a navy. We will take this responsibility, but it depends on our chief’s opinion.”
Hearing Lin Tian’s words, these n.o.bles’ faces showed a hint of joy, and it was only left to wait and report this incident to the chairman. As long as we meet their leader, this kid will die.
Lin Tian knew what these rotten n.o.bles were thinking and sneered in his heart.
“What Marine branch are you from?” a n.o.bleman asked carefully.
“Marineford!” Lin Tian answered.
“Where’s Marineford? I’ve never heard of it.”
“I’ve never heard of it. Do you know where it is?”
“No, there shouldn’t be a place like that in East Blue.”
….
Many of the lower aristocrats might not have heard of Marineford, but some of them had heard of the place, including its location.
As for Earl, he had not only heard of it, but he had even been there. This Earl had attended Reverie’s big meeting.
I feel so lucky to have been there.
If so, this Marine group comes from Marine Headquarters, an elite force from the centre, and they work under the direct supervision of Marine Headquarters.
Thinking of this, Earl couldn’t calm down immediately. Only then did he realize that Ander was a Commodore.
“That’s right,” the yacht captain whispered when he heard the name.
Although this Captain had never been to Marineford, he had heard of it from an old man, so he remembered it very well.
“Mister Earl, where is Marineford? It shouldn’t be in East Blue.” A n.o.bleman asked the Earl.
Earl said shakily: “Marinford is not in East Blue, Marineford is Marine Headquarters, that means this Marine group comes from headquarters.”
* Inhale.
Everyone was shocked by the Earl’s words. And they all became convinced that this Marine group came from Marinford.
“So, this Marine group comes from the Grand Line, the pirate’s grave.” One person spoke to himself to conclude in a low voice, but since no one was speaking apart from him, everyone could hear the sentences he spoke clearly.
The surprise on everyone’s faces increased slightly, and there was a hint of joy.
If these Marine Soldiers were from the Grand Line, it meant that their fighting strength was very strong, so the pirates were no match for them.
The Earl and the n.o.bles no longer worried about the pirates who would attack them.
Now, there’s a Commodore with them. The n.o.bles knew that the Commodore at Marine Headquarters was much more capable than the Commodore in the East Blue region.
The feeling of revenge against the Marine group had disappeared from the hearts of the n.o.bles.
Even though they were arrogant, these n.o.bles still possessed self-control when faced with more powerful people. Just because they couldn’t take revenge on these Marine Soldiers, they wouldn’t lose their minds and act arbitrarily.
What they think now is how to establish a good relationship with this Commodore. They will behave well and comply with his requests, all of that to make this Commodore interested.
It’s all about aristocracy, oppression and survival. Even though Lin Tian had just killed one of them, they became angry, but as long as there was enough benefit, they would do him a favour.
In the blink of an eye, the hatred in their hearts disappeared completely, replaced by sincere friendship.
In these n.o.bles’ minds, Lin Tian and the others above didn’t know what they were thinking. On the other hand, Lin Tian and the Marine Soldiers also didn’t really care what these people thought.
“Report! Commodore Lin Tian, the pirate ship has entered our range, are we allowed to fire?”
Lin Tian waved his hand and rejected this proposal. In Lin Tian’s view, this pirate group was so bad, and they could very possibly be dealt with with one round of fire.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lin Tian’s refusal to shoot was meaningless to the pirates. Seeing that Marine battleships were already within their range, Captain Rock immediately issued an order to fire.
“Fire! If you guys still miss this time, I’ll put you in a barrel and throw it into the sea!” I don’t know if Rock’s words affected their accuracy or not, and it was clear that the pirates got serious right away and started firing, and four out of five cannonb.a.l.l.s. .h.i.t the target.
Cannonb.a.l.l.s fell from the sky, and the n.o.bles felt like they would die if hit by that attack, but the Marine Soldiers currently still ignored the shooting.
Ander quickly drew his sword and jumped into the yacht, and ordinary people could only see the flash that split the four cannonb.a.l.l.s in half and exploded in midair.
And then Ander put his sword back into the sheath.
“Is this the power of a Marine Headquarters Commodore? He can cut four cannonb.a.l.l.s quickly. How strong is this guy ?!”
Seeing this sight, everyone on the yacht was amazed. I had heard that the people who came from the Grand Line were very strong, and I finally got to see it myself today.
This is just the Commodore’s strength. What about Rear-Admiral, Vice-Admiral, Admiral? They must be very strong.
“Captain, it looks like we have to retreat. This Marine group looks very strong.” A pirate crew stuttered.
Hearing what his subordinate said, Captain Rock did nothing to this subordinate but hastily ordered.
“Turn around, we retreat!”
Even though Rock is very greedy, he is not a fool. The Marine group in front of him wasn’t something they could handle. If he continued to force himself to fight, he and his crew would just die in vain.
Spatial Blade!
The black sword slashed sideways, and the three masts on the pirate ship were cut and fell into the sea.
At the moment, there is only regret left in Rock’s mind.
“Now, we’re all going to die!”
