Chapter 269: Stormy Waves (Four Watches)
"It's really strange, why isn't there a follow-up report in the newspaper about Vice Admiral 'Day Tiger' Hailan of the Navy Headquarters fighting Jack, the big signature of the Hundred Beast Pirates? Did I miss an issue of the newspaper? ”
"That's right, the World Economic News is only published once a week, and I still keep it last week, which is connected with this issue."
Because it is a "worldwide" newspaper, the World Economic News has a relatively long circulation cycle.
After all, there is no "network" in this world, and the ability to transmit news is obviously not as developed as on Earth.
And because Hailan annoyed the world's aristocratic Tianlongren, the "big news" Morgans canceled all the news reports about Hailan very interestingly, and it was none of his business.
He's a journalist, and he can't afford to offend anyone.
"Don't worry, wait and see if there is any news about the 'Day Tiger' Hailan in the next issue of the newspaper."
"It's a pity, the last issue of the newspaper was full of photos of the big stupid elephant, and Lord Hailan only had a back and a silhouette, and he didn't wear a military uniform, it's a pity."
“……”
Hearing the voice of someone whispering about himself on the passenger ship, Hailan's first feeling was not happiness, but... It's the end of the calf!
I still have 187 recognition points in my computing power to upgrade, and this passenger ship only has about 200 people, and I can't get two recognition points on the same person, which means that...
If there are more "fans" on this passenger ship, wouldn't it be impossible to upgrade even if you save everyone?
It won't be like this, right?
Why is it so hard to be a good person?
How convenient would it be if the upgrade of one's computing power needed not "identity value" but "hatred value", and split this passenger ship into two sections with one knife, and the "hatred value" would be firmly in hand.
Maybe... It is precisely because he is the son of the former admiral of the Navy "black wrist" Zefa that he tailors this system that requires "recognition value"?
If he is the son of the flying thief Golden Lion Shiji, then it should be a proper "hatred value" system, right?
Doesn't that mean that if you cross over to become a bounty hunter, you should get the "Krypton Gold System"?
The service of the Temporal Authority is quite in place...
After silently complaining about his system, Hailan continued to use the electric current to stimulate his body.
"It seems to be getting colder..."
The strong wind blew across her cheeks, feeling the colder and colder weather, Hailan opened her eyes and looked up at the sky.
"Oh no, we have encountered a 'silent super thunderstorm', hurry up and turn the rudder left, go full speed, and escape from this sea, the farther the better!"
"What does a silent super thunderstorm mean?"
"Don't talk this nonsense, get busy!"
"If we escape, the supplies that were supposed to be sent to Jianhao Island..."
"Jianhao Island", formerly known as "Rough Stone Island", is the main source of historical original stones.
Since the demise of the "Guangyue Clan", the "Rough Stone Island" has become the favorite place for swordsmen to learn because of its "solid" characteristics, so it is named "Sword Island Island".
Hearing so much nonsense from his subordinates, the captain scolded bitterly: "This thunderstorm is different from what we have encountered in the past, don't ask, hurry up and get busy, otherwise we will all die here!" ”
"It's... Yes..."
As soon as he heard "everyone has to die", the originally warm and peaceful deck immediately became chaotic.
"It turned out to be a silent super thunderstorm... I'm in trouble now..."
Hailan at the stern of the boat had stopped cultivating, and his expression gradually became solemn.
Hailan has seen in the data that the "silent super thunderstorm" is a unique weather that can only be found in the new world.
"Silent super thunderstorms" are irregular, and super huge cumulonimbus clouds may suddenly appear in the otherwise clear sea, accompanied by extremely violent storms and thunderstorms, not to mention the ships sailing on the sea, even if they pass by an island, will bring great disasters to the inhabitants of the island.
Now it was just the calm before the storm, and Hailan, who was the elite lieutenant general of the headquarters, had already felt a noticeable chill, from which it could be deduced how terrible it would be when the real thunderstorm came.
"I said I wanted to sell some favors to the passengers on this ship, but I don't need such a big battle, right? It's a lot harder to deal with than pirates..."
In the short moment that Hai Lan was thinking, the sky above the passenger ship had turned into a black oppressive patch.
The black clouds were about to destroy the ship, and the high-pressure and dull atmosphere in the air made even Hailan feel a faint uneasiness.
Hailan cares about the recognition value, but it has not yet reached the point where "birds die for food and people die for money"; Hailan is a navy, but he does not have the noble consciousness of dedicating his life.
Hailan admired the soldiers who fought the flood and rescued people and put out the fire, but he could only admire it in his heart, and asked himself, but he couldn't do it.
"Do your best and let it be the fate of heaven... If you still have the strength to spare, you can help the passengers on this ship, and if you really reach the point where you are desperate, then you can only say sorry. ”
The reason why the "Three Calamities" of the "Hundred Beast Pirates" are called the "Three Calamities" is because "natural disasters" are the most terrifying existence on this sea.
Whitebeard can cause a tsunami, Dorag can cause a typhoon, Anilu can cause a thunderstorm... However, the "silent super thunderstorm" itself has three major natural disasters: tsunamis, typhoon, and thunderstorm at the same time.
In the face of these disasters, Hailan and Yellow Ape are not a big problem, and the pheasant begins to have some difficulty in protecting itself, and Akainu or Klockdahl, if they are unlucky, will inevitably die in this disaster.
The three-headed monsters of the Hundred Beast Pirates are not worthy of the words "three disasters" at all, tsunamis, typhoons, thunderstorms... These are the three major natural disasters that really dominate the sea.
Under the dark clouds, the sunless sea turned into a thick black, as aggressive as a gushing oil, and the mere sight of it would make you feel deeply terrifying.
"Click!"
As a column of thunder and lightning fell from the clouds to the sea, the rain fell from the sky like a pour, and many people on the deck wailed in pain with their buzzing ears.
"Help..."
There was a cry for help in the wind, as thin as a mosquito's chirp.
The sound comes from vibrations, and strong winds can interfere with the vibrations of the air, so in strong winds, even two people facing each other need to shout to communicate with each other.
That is, Hailan could barely hear this faint cry for help.
Syllable!
Hailan grabbed the wrist of the caller, a little girl with shoulder-length black hair and red pupils.
She was almost blown away by the wind.
"Don't hang out on the deck, kids, get out into the cabin!"
