Chapter 6
Scaring the Little Tyke
The two ships quickly moored together. Pirate B rushed over to report the situation to the leader. The pirate chief furrowed his brow. “This is peculiar. Something doesn’t seem right.”
“Don’t worry, Chief. It’s just two girls and a child. We have plenty of people,” reassured Pirate B.
“Search thoroughly. Don’t let anyone exceptional slip by!” commanded the pirate leader.
“Alright, I’ll conduct a meticulous search, Chief!” promised Pirate B.
“Bring them over.” The pirate leader glanced at the three of them.
The three people and two pets were escorted to the pirate ship.
The person escorting him was Pirate A.
Gu Xiaonan was very friendly to the pirates.
Pirate A didn’t make things difficult for them. He just followed behind and let them walk in front.
A portion of the pirates went to Gu Qingluan’s ship to clean up the spoils of war, while the remaining pirates were on the pirate ship.
Gu Xiaonan opened her big round eyes and looked around.
The surface of the pirate ship was painted black, and the sails were also black. There was a huge white skull printed on it.
The pirates were dressed very casually, with cloth wrapped around their heads and all kinds of weapons in their hands. They did not look like they were to be trifled with.
In the middle of the deck, a rough man with a scar on his face was sitting on a tiger head chair, staring at the three of them with fierce eyes.
Gu Xiaonan looked at him and smiled sweetly. “Are you the pirate boss?”
The pirate chief smiled insincerely. “Yes.”
“Wow, then you must be very powerful!”
The pirate leader let out a soft grunt, acknowledging the remark.
The bearded man chuckled, “Boss, don’t be so serious. What if you scare the little tyke?”
“Little one, I heard that you want to join us. Why? Aren’t you afraid of us?”
“My master said that pirates are chivalrous and fight against those unscrupulous businessmen and bullies. They are good people who rob the rich and help the poor!”
They are good people?
Oh my, is this kid out of his mind?
The crowd burst into laughter.
The bearded man finally stopped laughing and asked, “Which hero is your master? What a brilliant idea!”
“This is my master!” Gu Xiaonan turned around and glanced at Gu Qingluan.
The crowd had long noticed Gu Qingluan, and their leering gazes lingered on her, their eyes changing as they heard the conversation.
The bearded man raised his thumb directly. “Well said, well said! You have good taste!”
“Woo woo woo!”
A peculiar sound came from above.
Gu Qingluan and Gu Xiaonan turned their heads in the direction of the sound, only to see two people, a man and a woman, bound to the tall mast of the pirate ship. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Their mouths were stuffed with cloth, and the peculiar sound came from them.
The bearded man introduced them, saying, “You see, those two are corrupt capitalists whom we robbed!”
Gu Xiaonan blinked her eyes and asked, “But why did Mr. Pirate hang them up there?”
“Hehe, because their mouths stink so badly. We’re giving them some fresh air to disperse the smell,” the bearded man chuckled.
As they spoke, the pirates gathered around them one after another.
“Chief, we’ve searched everywhere, but we only found a boatman.”
“Besides some basic supplies, there aren’t many valuable items on the ship.”
“Such a large ship, and so little to show for it?”
The pirates were disappointed by the news.
The bearded man pointed at Gu Xiaonan. “This kid looks well-off. He has a promising future ahead of him. It’s not a complete loss for us!”
“Yes, indeed. It’s not a complete loss!” As the last pirate boarded the ship, Gu Xiaonan smiled, a mischievous gleam in his eyes.
