There was no need for Ian to bother looking for it. Led by the monkey, that is, the member of the Ian family pretending to be a beggar, a group of people headed towards the naval station on Chambord Island.
In the same way, the troops split into two groups, and the lame man took people to receive the property of the Skinned Pirates.
If Ian was still alone, these things would need to go back and forth repeatedly, but now it is different, with someone under his command, it is really easy to handle things!
However, the members of the Ian family who were in the midst of excitement forgot one thing. They did not contact Hawking and others who were still in the stronghold, so that Hawking and the others still didn't know what was going on and were worried.
It was also when Ian and the others went to receive the reward, Hawking and the others who stayed at the stronghold discovered that a large number of people were coming towards the stronghold.
Everyone panicked at once, knowing that someone was looking for trouble, and now that the stronghold is empty, they can only hurriedly pick up their weapons and prepare to fight.
However, after these people approached, Hawking realized that it was the bosses of the nearby families who came!
The leader is the boss of the Boulder family who is entrenched in the red tree area on the 14th. Walking with him are the boss Dorji from the red tree area on the 11th, the boss Bain from the red tree area on the 19th, and the boss on the 21st. The boss of Baggins in the mangrove area.
The families led by these four bosses are the most powerful families near Mangrove No. 16 of the Ian family. When Sicilian paid tribute back then, it was these families who paid tribute.
So when Hawking saw these four bosses appearing together, he was so scared that the gun fell to the ground.
The four bosses arrived at the stronghold with about two hundred subordinates. Lorraine and Elena saw that the situation was not good, and had already run back to the house to hide.
Only Hawking stepped forward bravely and said with a smile, "Bosses, what brought you here?"
The boss of the Dorje family, Dorje, is a big fat man. He squinted at Hawking and said, "Hawking, have you grown capable? Seeing us coming, what do you want to do with your weapon?"
"Boss Duoji, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Hawking quickly explained, "I didn't see clearly just now..."
Before the words finished, Duoji suddenly took out his pistol and hit Hawking's thigh with a bang.
Hawking let out a scream, and fell to the ground clutching his thigh, bleeding profusely, and the ground instantly turned red.
The rest of the people seemed to have expected this situation a long time ago, and they were not surprised at all. Instead, they laughed. Dorje stepped on Hawking's head, and said with a sneer, "This is a lesson for you. I heard that the boss of your Sicilian family It's changed, isn't it true?"
Hawking was sweating profusely from the pain, but he could only raise his head and say, "Yes... yes."
As soon as he heard this question, he immediately understood that the sequelae caused by those members who sneaked away yesterday appeared.
The fact that the Sicilian family changed its name to the Ian family was spread by those who escaped. Because the former boss Sicilian had been paying tribute to the surrounding powers, but now that Sicilian was dead, the family that received his tribute , of course I have to take a look.
Probably not to avenge Sicilian, but to come and talk to the newly formed Ian family about paying tribute!
Yes, these family bosses don’t have any friendship with Sicilian at all, what they have is just interests. The Sicilian family was originally just a small force. Gong will do.
After Hawking figured out the purpose of these bosses, he suddenly became a little worried for Ian. Since these family bosses came out in person, they might have the idea of extorting a sum of money, and it is very likely that they will pay tribute to Ian's family. Amount increased.
After confirming that the news of the Sicilian family boss changing was true, Duoji let go of Hawking's head, and sneered, "If that's the case, call your boss out!"
Hawking hesitated and said: "Boss Duoji, Boss Ian, we are...not here..."
"Oh, where did he go?" Boulder, the boss of the Boulder family next to him, asked with a thick cigar in his mouth.
"He... our boss, Ian, took people to catch the pirates..." Hawking could only answer honestly.
This remark immediately caused the four bosses to laugh together, and Boulder laughed out of tears, and said to Duoji: "It seems that the news is true, this new Boss Ian really intends to concentrate on his work The life of a pirate hunter!"
"That's not bad!" Bain, the boss of the Bain family next to him, is a guy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He stuck out his tongue and licked his lips, with a greedy look in his eyes, and said: "Since he doesn't plan to do other business, then the four of us The family will divide it up for him!"
"That makes sense!" The last boss, Baggins, finally spoke up, and said, "Okay, since your boss is not here, let's just wait for him to come back!"
After finishing speaking, a group of people walked into the stronghold of the Ian family without asking Hawking's permission, and they didn't forget to sneer when they entered, saying: "Your house is still as dilapidated as before! "
After arriving in the room, a group of people were not polite at all, and sat carelessly on the sofa that belonged to Ian in the middle of the room, and then shouted: "Where are the treats!? Bring them all to us!"
As a last resort, Hawking had to drag his injured leg to find Lorraine and Elena, and asked them to bring food and drinks to entertain these family bosses.
Although Lorraine and Elena were extremely reluctant, they could only find ways to deal with this group of people. However, when they brought the things up, Dorje and Baggins stretched out a palm each. A hard pinch on the ass.
The force was so great that Lorraine and Elena couldn't help crying out in pain, holding back tears from falling down.
However, even if the two of them were so tolerant, Dorje stood up and slapped Lorraine to the ground!
Duoji sneered and scolded: "Squeeze you, that's to respect you, how dare you call out!?"
Hawking saw this scene in his eyes. Although he gritted his teeth with hatred, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only wink at Lorraine and Elena and let them leave.
As the boss of a family, how could he care about a maid so carefully? Duoji is so arrogant, in fact, he is just trying to show his prestige on purpose.
Lorraine and Elena understood what Hawking meant, so regardless of the pain on their faces, they got up and wanted to leave.
However, Duoji didn't intend to let them go so easily, and said with a gloomy face: "Why, the guests are here, don't you even take out a woman to entertain them?"
The implication is that I want Lorraine and Elena to accompany me.
Now, even Hawking didn't know what to do. Logically speaking, Lorraine and Elena could be regarded as the women of Ian's boss. How could they let their boss's woman accompany the guests
Hawking only felt that his head was as big as a bucket, so he limped forward and said: "Boss Duoji, please forgive me...they...they are not maids..."
"If you're not a maid, can't you accompany me?" Baggins also sneered.
Following his words, the subordinates standing behind the sofa immediately drew their guns, pointed at Lorraine and Elena, Boulder and Bain, and watched the excitement without saying a word.
Where have the two girls seen such a battle? Trembling with fright.
Hawking gritted his teeth, and said to Duoji and Baggins: "Bosses, they really can't accompany..."
Among the members of the Ian family, Hawking has some understanding of Ian's strength, not to say how loyal he is to Ian, but he understands that if two people, Lorraine and Elena, are really If the girl gets hurt, Ian will definitely not let him go when he comes back! Because yesterday when he came out with the safe in his arms, he saw the scene where Ian healed Lorraine and Elena. Although he stopped and didn't dare to come out to disturb him, he also understood that Ian felt pity for these two life experiences. Girls are sympathetic.
So under such circumstances, Hawking can only argue with reason.
However, what he didn't expect was that just after he finished speaking, Dorje shot him in the other leg again.
Now Hawking couldn't stand anymore and fell to the floor.
Hawking felt that he was really unlucky these two days. Yesterday, Boss Ian cut his wrist with a knife. Today, both legs were pierced by bullets. Now he can move all over his body with one hand...
"Forget it!" Boulder finally spoke. He also felt a little bored watching this scene, and said, "Don't forget our business!"
Although Dorji was a little unwilling, but Boulder spoke up, and he also needed to show face, so he sat down resentfully.
Lorraine and Elena fought back their fear, and ran over to help Hawking down to bandage up. Anyway, Hawking was injured to protect them.
Now only Boulder and his group were left in the house. After seeing what happened to Hawking, how could the rest of the Ian family dare to come in? Seeing that there was no one left, Boulder and the others chatted unscrupulously.
"Duoji, how much tribute do you plan to ask them to pay this time?" Baggins asked.
"When Sicilian was here, he gave me 1.5 million Baileys every month!" Duoji drank his wine and said, "This time, a kid who didn't know how to do anything came up, but he didn't even come to see him on his own initiative, so I decided to pay him three times directly! At least 4.5 million will be paid to me every month!"
"Oh? In that case, we might as well unify the price!" Bain said.
"Four people add up to 18 million Baileys. Can that kid hand it over?" Boulder frowned.
"Don't care so much about him! That's his business!" Baggins sneered: "I don't know where the boy came from. Did he think that the lawless area is so easy to mess with? He really thought that killing someone would make him the boss." ?”
"That's right, take this opportunity to teach him a good lesson!" Duoji nodded in agreement.
A group of people just laughed and chatted, imagining how to blackmail this new Ian family, but they didn't expect that after waiting for more than an hour, Ian never came back.
"It's only a few million pirates, and it takes so long?" Boulder said disdainfully, "Boss Ian, that's the way it is!"
Duoji's temper was more irritable, and he said: "Damn, if you don't come back, I will demolish this dilapidated house of his!"
Just as he finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the door.
"Which idiot said that my house is going to be demolished!?"
