The Great Voyage: I Became Nami's Brother at the Start

This makes it very clear: those marked with blue circles are killable. The escape pods marked with red circles are the ones Todd is planning to capture.

Todd flew over quickly, controlled his aircraft to extend a grappling hook to grab the other party, and then turned around and flew back.

The people in the escape pod were stunned. How could they have been caught so soon after they came out?

But when they looked back at the other destroyed escape pods, they breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared to those destroyed escape pods, at least they're still alive, aren't they?

Their oval-shaped escape pods can carry two people each.

The two men exchanged a glance, and without even thinking, they could guess what kind of situation they would face next.

"No more life signs, back to base." Norton glanced at the reconnaissance aircraft's screen and said, secretly gloating, "This is a dimensional reduction attack! A super-powerful aircraft dealing with these native ships is a piece of cake!"

"Roger that!"

"That was awesome!"

"We can have more battles like this!"

"Your Majesty, let's hurry and move on to the next target!"

Amid the discussions, everyone chose to return automatically and then took off their helmets.

Nodu looked at the monitor and said, "Bring the prisoners back for interrogation."

"Okay," Todd replied, and jogged towards the aircraft cabin door.

His aircraft was the first to fly back with prisoners.

Once the external hatch is closed and the cabin is fully oxygenated, the hatch slowly opens.

Todd led two of his men inside, arrived at the other party's escape pod, and violently opened it with a "crack".

boom--

when!

As expected, gunshots rang out as soon as the hatch was opened, and Todd used the dismantled hatch to block the bullets.

Chapter 328 The Basic Principles of Reciprocity

After the enemy stopped firing, Todd said coldly, "I advise you to give up resisting. This is our territory! If you cooperate with us, you might still be able to survive."

"Are you...are you sure we can survive?" The speaker was a woman, the monitor.

“Of course,” Todd replied with absolute certainty.

The two women inside exchanged a glance and had no choice but to give up resisting.

Todd led them out, and after the hatch closed, a large number of aircraft began to return to their cabins.

Eileen waited for them to come out, opened a door, and they went together to the driver's seat.

After they were led to the driver's seat, Norton gave Nochiko and Miki a wink.

The two women understood, and with wicked smiles, they walked over and grabbed the two Naga women, giving them a good beating.

"Will you tell me or not! Will you tell me or not!"

"You're so stubborn, aren't you! I'll teach you to stay quiet, I'll teach you to stay quiet..."

Garp and the others around them were dumbfounded.

What is this operation?

Did you ask them any questions just now?

The two people who were hit were also confused.

Did I miss something?

What do they want me to say?

"Stop...stop hitting me...stop hitting me...what do you want me to say? Ask me first..."

"Yes... Stop hitting us, we'll tell you everything... Waaah... Mom... I want to go home..."

The two women were beaten to tears...

The people around felt a little sorry for them and turned their heads away. Those who were close by also turned around and kicked the two men, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"Huh? Didn't we ask any questions?" Nojiko suddenly stopped what she was doing upon hearing this.

Miki scratched her head: "It seems... I didn't ask."

Nojiko feigned surprise, grabbed the Naga woman whose face he had slapped into a bun, and demanded, "Tell me, what's your name? How old are you? What's your gender? Are you married? Uh... you don't need to answer that! Why are you here? What's your purpose? What do you want? What's your conspiracy?"

Nokiko's series of questions left the two of them completely bewildered.

Why do they feel that all these questions seem to be asking the same thing?

But now they're living under someone else's roof, at the mercy of others, and they can't very well remind the other party...

Once Nojiko shut her mouth, the woman she was grabbing hurriedly said, "I...I'm called Klaxki, female, 23 this year, unmarried...Oh, right, no need to answer that! We...we belong to the Galan Interstellar Pirates. The reason we're here is actually to collect resources from Suleak. Suleak is a space predator that our pirate crew raises in this star system. We encountered you on the way, and our captain thought you were easy to bully and wanted to make a quick buck, so..."

“Your Majesty, she did not lie.” Nolan’s voice followed after Clarkeschi finished speaking.

“Very good.” Norton nodded, stepped forward, looked down at her, and asked, “The cosmic predator Surelak you mentioned, is it that green, planet-shaped behemoth? It uses its deceptive appearance to lure other creatures over before hunting them?”

"Yes, it is."

The two women nodded quickly.

Norton scoffed and waved his hand, saying, "Oh... then you don't need to go. That guy has already been killed by us and is now a cosmic corpse."

"What? It's dead?"

Upon hearing this, both of them showed expressions of extreme fear.

"What's with those expressions?" Norton suddenly sensed something was off when he saw their faces.

Claxie said with a look of horror, "My lord, you don't know this, but there are countless symbiotic worms inside Sulelac's body. If Sulelac were to die suddenly, those symbiotic worms would devour him in a short time and then attack other planets, devouring all visible life forms. So... that's why our pirate crew released him to other star systems, for fear that if he suddenly died, those terrible worms would come out and cause trouble."

"Nolan!" Upon hearing her words, Norton's expression changed, and he turned around and shouted.

"Yes, Master, please look. That planet that lost its life is indeed shrinking." Nolan instantly understood Norton's meaning and immediately brought up a picture.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked up and their faces immediately fell.

"Do those insects have any weaknesses?" Norton asked Clarksky with a grim expression.

Klaxsky didn't dare to hide anything: "Their strengths are devouring and group activity. Their weakness is weak defense; it's easy to kill one!"

"That makes things easier..." Norton breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "Nolan, give him another shot! Use the Star Destroyer Cannon! I want them to disappear completely from our star system, otherwise we'll be in trouble!"

"Understood! Planet Destroyer Cannon ready, ten, nine, eight, seven... three, two, one... fire!"

As Nona finished speaking, the large screen split in two, one showing the launch image of the Star Destroyer Cannon, and the other showing the already deceased Sullerak.

In the space ahead, as Nolan counted down, a small sun-like sphere of energy rapidly converged.

Then, as the word "launch" was uttered, the ball of light transformed into a giant beam of light and shot towards Sulelac.

"Holy crap... do we really have such a powerful attack?"

"Yes, but after this use, it will take a long time to recharge."

"That's fine then..."

"Look, that Suleak is reacting!"

Everyone's attention then turned to another scene.

In the scene, the already dead Sulelac has shrunk several times in size compared to before. Perhaps sensing the threat, the entire planet has begun to stir and distort.

When the massive beam of light struck, only a few green glowing particles flew away from Suleak's corpse.

Even so, the intense flash of light that erupted after the light struck Sulerak still engulfed the escaping points of light.

Swah——

The intense flash lasted for more than ten seconds, then suddenly subsided, turning into a point of light and disappearing.

Also vanished was the enormous corpse of the previous Sulelac.

"That settles it, doesn't it?" Norton looked away from the screen, glancing disdainfully at Krakucchi. "Your eyes tell me that your pirate crew doesn't seem to possess the strength of ours, right? So, in that case..."

Norton lowered his body, staring intently at Clarksky, and said coldly, "Your attack on us is tantamount to declaring war on us. According to the basic principle of reciprocity, shouldn't we also go and say hello to your headquarters?"

However, after Norton finished speaking, Klaxley's face showed no fear, but rather excitement and agitation, even tears...

Chapter 329 Different Aesthetic Views

what 's wrong?

Norton turned his head in surprise to look at the other person.

The other person was also so excited that they shed tears.

This is a bit outrageous!

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!

"My lord! Please, you must go and 'return the favor' as soon as possible!" The next second, Klaxsky bowed down and pleaded with him.

hiss--

what happened?

Everyone was completely baffled.

But Norton and Granny Crane narrowed their eyes and simultaneously raised their hands to stroke their chins as they pondered.

"Could it be..." Granny Tsuru spoke first, "None of you joined the pirate crew voluntarily? Your families were threatened? No... that's not right... if it were just family, it wouldn't have caused you to do this..."

Norton followed up with, "Is your country, or your planet, being threatened by a pirate crew?"

Claxie was already sobbing uncontrollably, and the other woman chimed in, "Yes, sir, just as you predicted, we were all forced... Only that bastard captain officially joined the Garan Pirates..."

"I see!" Norton squinted, straightened up, and waved his hand, indicating, "Let go, they are pitiful people too."

Noki and Miki let go of their hands, looking at them with a hint of apology in their eyes, but they did not apologize.
