The pirate ships originally moored on the shore were severely damaged.
Bach was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.
"Did the Navy do it? No, it couldn't be the Navy... What happened here?"
It was precisely because they could not afford to pay the heavenly gold that the world government and the navy revoked their protection, causing Chunko Island to eventually become a pirate den.
Therefore, when Bach saw the corpses of pirates all over the ground, he directly rejected the possibility that the navy had done it.
Bach's eyes passed over the pirate corpses on the ground near the shore, and then he quickly noticed the only intact pirate ship.
The flag flying on the mast is a skull surrounded by crossed swords and guns.
"Did that pirate group do it?"
Bach swallowed. Eager to figure out the reason, he mustered up the courage to walk towards the pirate ship.
He had just taken a few steps when he saw Maude and Lafayette walking out of the town's central avenue, and Bailey lying on Maude's shoulder.
Maude and Lafayette also saw Bach for the first time.
"Oh, it's you."
Maude recognized Bach at a glance as the thief she met two days ago.
Coincidentally, the second encounter was at the same location.
“…”
Bach's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his eyes glanced at the blood on Maud's body. He was always brave, but he was too nervous to say a word.
However, he got the answer from this moment.
The two people in front of me should be the instigators.
But…
Can they alone do this
At this time, Bach, who was shocked, suddenly remembered the deeds his father had told him about a month before his death.
It is said that in other places, there are some islands that cannot afford the sky gold. As long as they pay a protection fee less than the sky gold to some powerful pirate groups, they can get the protection of that pirate group's flag!
Bach, who thought of this inexplicably, even though he was very nervous, he still said something by mistake.
"C-can you lend us the pirate flag?"
“…”
Maude and Lafayette immediately looked at each other.
Chapter 47 The weak have no choice
The motive for asking for the pirate flag is of course to seek asylum.
But this is the starting island, and every once in a while, pirates will definitely visit this place.
This alone is enough to turn Bach's expectations into fantasy.
Under this premise, if Mod lends the flag to the young man in front of him, not only will it not have any protective effect, it may even harm the residents of Chunzi Island.
However, this was the first time that Maude was asked to place a flag for protection, which made him feel very strange.
It's a pity that his newly formed pirate group does not have the ability to protect the residents of Chunzi Island.
Otherwise, he would not mind planting the pirate flag here and forming a mutually beneficial relationship with the residents of Chunzi Island.
Facing Bach's hopeful gaze, Maude shook her head.
No words were spoken, but the rejection was obvious.
Bach couldn't hide his disappointment.
In his limited knowledge, just letting the flag of a powerful pirate group flutter in the wind here can deter those ferocious pirates and return Chunzi Island to its former peaceful life.
Even if they can't keep out all the pirates, they don't have to go to Dongzi Island to survive.
It was precisely because he knew so little that Bach made such an unrealistic request.
Seeing Maude's refusal, Bach was disappointed and suddenly realized that he was too abrupt.
If the corpses on the ground and the fire in the town were all caused by the two people in front of him.
So, these two people must be extremely cruel pirates, otherwise how could they do such a thing
And if he came over to talk abruptly and made the other party unhappy, the consequences would definitely be miserable, right
Bach, who had been thinking wildly for a moment, suddenly turned pale and said weakly: "You...will kill me?"
These incomprehensible words surprised Maud.
After a moment, Maud burst out laughing.
Bach looked at Maud who was laughing in confusion.
At this moment, the fear that was flooding inside him slowly faded away.
There is no basis for this.
He felt that the man in front of him would not hurt him.
Maud's loud laughter attracted Jaya and Jim who were stationed on the mast ship.
"Maude, are you okay?"
Jia Ya looked slightly nervous when she saw Maude covered in blood.
"It's okay, all this blood belongs to others."
Maud smiled at Jaya.
Jia Ya was relieved and turned to look at Bach, who was wearing a hooded cotton-padded jacket.
"he is?"
"My name is Bach, and I am a resident of the island."
Before Maude could speak, Bach took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Jia Ya looked at Bach after hearing this.
Gululu—
At this time, Bach heard bowel sounds in his abdomen.
"Well… "
Bach subconsciously held his stomach, feeling a little embarrassed.
Jaya smiled slightly and looked at Maud with a questioning look.
Mode realized Jia Ya's plan and nodded.
Seeing this, Jaya immediately started preparing food.
after an hour.
The fires in the town were burning more and more fiercely, and the billowing black smoke went towards the sky, as if to merge with the black clouds that quietly gathered.
A few minutes later.
After a few thunders, it suddenly began to rain heavily.
In the face of this sudden rain, the fires in the town gradually weakened.
After more than ten minutes, the fire was extinguished by heavy rain.
On the central avenue of the town, a group of people wearing cotton-padded jackets or fur coats were walking in the rain.
At the front of the crowd, it was Bach who was leading the way.
After learning about the situation on Chunzi Island, he immediately returned to Dongzi Island and mobilized all residents to return to Chunzi Island after a long absence.
At this time, their destination in the rain was a restaurant in the town that was not affected by the fire.
There, Jia Ya and the others had prepared hot tonic three-fresh porridge.
There were about five to six hundred people in the crowd, and they made noisy noises as they walked, even louder than the sound of the rain.
The huge movement caused figures to appear vaguely in front of the windows of the houses on both sides of the street.
The owners of these figures were not pirates, so they were not killed by Maud and Lafayette.
At this time, these figures stood in front of the window, silently watching the people walking in the rain.
Under the gaze of these eyes, the crowds who walked in the rain arrived at the restaurant.
After they entered one after another, they saw bowls of steaming three-fresh porridge placed on round tables, and an alluring aroma filled the air.
Under Bach's orderly guidance, the residents who returned to Chunzi Island after many years sat tremblingly on their chairs.
Everyone's face was filled with indescribable excitement.
And when they picked up their bowls and spoons and took a mouthful of hot porridge, the warmth flowing through their bodies made them burst into tears.
No one spoke in the entire restaurant, only the sounds of bowls and spoons banging and the sound of swallowing hot porridge.
Jia Ya stood at the entrance of the back kitchen, silently looking at the Chunzi Island residents who were eating porridge and crying silently in the restaurant.
Mod came to Jia Ya and said calmly: "In a few days, the pointer will be full of records, and after we leave, Chunzi Island will not usher in any changes."
"I know."
Jaya nodded slightly.
Even if Maude and Lafayette kill all the pirates in the town, even if they provide hot food for this group of residents.
That's all that can be done.
After they leave, pirates will still come to Chunzi Island one after another after a while.
By that time, even if the residents of Chunzi Island begin to resist, they will not be able to defeat the endless stream of pirates.
This is the cruel reality that Chunko Island cannot usher in any change because of its location.
Mod didn't speak anymore, but looked calmly at the residents of Chunzi Island in the restaurant.
The three fresh porridge was Jia Ya's special warming food, and the effect was immediate, making the faces of this group of people look rosy.
In the next few days.
Jia Ya tried her best to prepare warm and nourishing food for the residents of Chunzi Island, hoping to help the residents of Chunzi Island recover as soon as possible within the limited time.
After several days of recovery, Dada, who was seriously injured, recovered well and was able to get out of bed and move around.
On the fifth day.
The pointer was full of records, and it was time for Maud and the others to leave.
Before setting sail, Dada and the residents of Chunzi Island came to the shore to bid farewell to Mod and his party.
Dada couldn't help but look at Maude standing on the side of the ship, with tears and runny nose.
In the past few days, Dada had the idea of begging Maud to let him on the boat.
However, at Dell's sincere invitation, Dada finally decided to become a rookie reporter, hoping to personally write reports about Mod in the future.
As Dell said, if you want to gather fame in a short period of time, you will definitely need these behind-the-scenes promoters.
And he, Dada, is going to be the driving force behind Mod!
He has to work hard and work hard before he really gets the right to speak.
With everyone waving goodbye, the mast ship sailed forward along the ocean current.
After a while, the mast ship disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Even so, the residents of Chunzi Island still refused to leave for a long time.
They looked at the direction in which the mast ship was leaving, all silently thanking the Mod Pirates for the help they had received.
"I want to be stronger… !"
The young Bach clenched his fists and swore in his heart.
The weak cannot even choose the way they die. They can only escape from this sad situation by finding ways to become stronger.
This is what Maud said to Bach before leaving.
