Chapter 23 Mutual Appreciation

About 40 minutes after receiving the distress signal, the warships of the 32nd detachment of the East China Sea finally arrived at Glass Pearl Island.

Upon seeing the pile of pirate corpses in the port, and Loya sitting atop the pile, shirtless and holding a blood-stained knife, the branch marines almost instinctively raised their guns.

Loya's face immediately turned quite green.

"Don't shoot, they're on our side!"

He just wanted to show off in front of his colleagues. Why are you so nervous? Didn't you see that he had already taken care of all the pirates?

Three minutes later, after Loya's painstaking explanation, the branch navy finally understood the specific situation, but they were still somewhat incredulous.

Including the captain, they killed seven people and captured more than ten. Although it was just a small, unknown pirate crew, this was a feat that even ordinary lieutenants could not achieve.

The major leading the group was filled with respect and personally lit a cigarette for Loya.

"Bro, did you really do this all by yourself?"

"certainly."

Loya took a satisfying puff, a perfectly measured arrogance appearing on his face: "Loya, Private First Class, Branch 153, ID number xxxx9527. You can verify my identity."

"Okay, bro, just a moment."

The major was startled again. He had thought that Loya was at least a captain, but he didn't expect him to be just a private.

If I remember correctly, Branch 153 was just a small, remote branch, and you could tell from its branch number that it didn't have much strength.

The major dared not delay and immediately ordered his subordinates to contact the 153rd branch to verify. After confirming Loya's identity, he was amazed.

This young man has a limitless future!

"We will report this incident truthfully to our superiors. Please leave the follow-up work to us!"

"good!"

Loya didn't dawdle. This island wasn't under the jurisdiction of Branch 153 anyway, so it was enough that he could get credit for it.

After taking the pirate's rocket launcher, Loya immediately headed to the alleyway he had been in, still unsure of the situation regarding the battle on Finbuddy's side.

Inside the alleyway.

Both of them were bruised and battered, their bodies covered in wounds. They punched each other and kicked each other back, without any skill, just pure emotion.

Commonly known as "chickens pecking at each other".

Fempedi punched Zango in the face, sending him staggering backward: "Give up, you can't escape!"

"Who would just sit and wait to die!"

Zango took a breath, steadied himself, and kicked Finbdi in the stomach, sending Finbdi flying several meters away.

"Aaaaaah!!!"

"Ooh ooh ooh!!!"

The two charged at each other again, their fighting spirit now fully unleashed.

When Loya arrived in the alley, this was the scene he saw. He didn't disturb the two of them, but instead sat on the wine barrel and started watching the battle.

The sun sets and rises again.

The two fought all night long, until they could barely stand. Their weak fists were weaker than a child's when they fought.

"Ha~~"

Loya yawned.

Well, these two have actually developed feelings for each other.

Not only did they not use weapons, but they also lacked the ferocity of a life-or-death battle. Instead, they gave off a feeling of "You should defeat me, but I can't bring myself to do it," as well as a contradictory feeling of "As a marine, I have a responsibility (to survive) to defeat you."

His teeth almost ached from looking at it.

"Kaya should wake up soon."

Loya shook his head, stepped forward and delivered two powerful punches that knocked the two men to the ground, then dragged the unconscious men toward the ship.

It's seven o'clock in the morning.

"Splash splash~~"

The sound of water echoed in my ears.

Kaya frowned her pretty brows, opened her eyes with a soft moan, and sat up somewhat bewildered.

Just then, Loya came out of the bathroom with a towel, wearing only shorts, and his skin was still covered with water droplets.

His body was covered in pirate blood, and his clothes were tattered. If he didn't wash himself, he might frighten little girls.

I just didn't expect Kaya to wake up.

"Yo!"

Loya greeted them without changing his expression, and then went into the changing room.

"what?"

Kaya sat on the bed with her eyes and mouth wide open, remaining in a dazed, wooden state the whole time. But when Loya walked into the dressing room next door, her face turned bright red and her brain started to spin.

She had seen Loya's muscles before, but that was when Loya was training, and they looked completely different after he took a shower.

pretty.

"what?"

Kaya recalled the scene from earlier and suddenly realized something was wrong.

Loya has scars on his back!

Because of the appearance of pirates, the defense of Glass Pearl Island has been significantly strengthened. Marines from the 32nd branch are patrolling everywhere to prevent any pirates from escaping.

Meanwhile, the Sirob couple's business was going well, giving them more time to spend with Kaya, which allowed Loya some free time.

The lower deck of the Sirob.

Finbdi was covered in bandages and looked very dejected. Next to him, Zango, who was also covered in bandages, sat on a chair.

"Don't be so sad, Brother Fumbuddy. You're a Marine, and I'm a pirate. There's nothing wrong with this outcome."

Compared to Finbuddy, Zango was much more emotionally stable, and when he decided to duel Finbuddy, he was prepared for the consequences.

On this cruel sea, friendship is more precious than life and death!

"Will I be sentenced to death?"

"meeting."

Finbdy clenched his fist.

Zango is a wanted criminal with a bounty of 900 million, and also the vice-captain of the Black Cat Pirates. If nothing unexpected happens, he will inevitably be sentenced to death.

He would be promoted for capturing Zango, at least to the rank of sergeant, but he preferred not to accept the reward.

"hateful!"

If he were a captain in the Navy Headquarters, he might have been able to save Zango by vouching for him in court, but he is only a private now and doesn't have that kind of influence.

He's been too lazy!

"Squeak~~"

Loya pushed open the door and entered, looking at the dejected Finbdi, and said calmly, "I have a way to keep him alive."

"What?"

Finbdy's pupils constricted.

Zango was also invigorated; if he could survive, no one would want to die.

"Loya, what's the plan?"

"It's very simple."

Loya stared at Zango.

"Assist our navy in capturing Clooney!"

"impossible!"

Zango blurted out, his eyes filled with deep fear: "You have no idea how powerful Captain Crowe is!"

"No, I know very well how strong Kro is."

Loya responded calmly.

Kro is very strong; he can even fight against the 153rd Branch alone.

But even if Kro is strong, he's still just a $1600 million bounty criminal, a human being who can be killed by guns and cannons.

Kro isn't quite at the superhuman level yet!

If we are well prepared and set a trap to lure Kuro into our trap, it is not impossible to kill Kuro with the full strength of the 153rd branch.

Taking the initiative and being passively attacked are completely different!

It's not good to wait until someday in the future and let Kuro board the 153rd branch's warship and kill all the marines without any preparation.

Loya didn't know when that incident would happen; it could be a year from now, six months from now, or it could be happening right now.

Waiting will only make you anxious and put you in a passive position.

Therefore, we must seize the opportunity.

To defeat Kuro, Branch 153 can only rely on its own strength!

"This is your only chance to survive," the hypnotist exclaimed.
