Chapter 965 - Who did this?

Dammit!

What now?

(*^*)

--Magoon Island--

The Autumn winds whistled gently as it whispered its beautiful song for all to hear.

The leaves had started wilting, turning several hues of orange and yellow.

The night had no stars above, as it lay n.a.k.e.d across the sky.

The sounds of wolves echoed out through the woods through the very silent night.

Everything looked peaceful and calm, bringing peace across the land.

But peace and calmness were far from what some were feeling right now.

Who?

Who did this?

A group of burly, arrogant and fierce men advanced vigilantly while observing the scene before them.

What in heaven's name happened here?

The group of men were over 2,000 in number.

With one look, one could tell who they were.

That's right.

They were pirates.

What the hell happened to their base?

.

Many had just returned from their missions and were immediately greeted with the sight of desolate shattered doors, windows and rooms in the place.

Blood had completely soaked the building floors and several portions of the walls, making their scales tingle in alarm.

Some even saw bloody palm prints on the walls.

Everyone's heart sank as they advanced deeper into their already destroyed base.

Well, it wasn't completely destroyed.

Only the buildings that had the dungeons were left standing.

The rest had been brought down mercilessly.

Without a doubt, a bloody battle must've gone down when they weren't here.

And judging from the dried-off blood, they could tell that it probably happened months ago.

They could also see animal trails of blood here too.

So maybe they were killed by the beasts here?

No!

That was ridiculous!

Their base had stood on this island for over 17 years now, with everyone knowing how to handle the creatures and even mother nature while staying here.

So it was definitely a person, or rather several persons, that dared to attack their base.

The animals probably smelt the thick smell of blood and came over to scout for dead bodies after the enemies left.

.

Scanning the place, they didn't see any human bones, meaning that the animals had probably found nothing and turned back.

So didn't it mean that the enemy took all their members away as hostages or slaves?

But even though it was highly likely, something didn't make sense to him.

Even if they took those that survived the attack away, what happens to those who fell?

Where were their bodies?

Typically, the fallen got left on the battlefield.

At least in that way, it would give their comrades evidence that they had truly fallen.

Some people even collect their father's heads and so on, right after battle.

But in this case, there were no fallen men, body parts, or even prices of fabric, swords, or anything else outside that showed that their comrades had fallen.

What the hell?

Could someone explain exactly what was going on?

.

Elgar Pho, famously known as Four-Fingers, couldn't help but grow anxious, and both raged when looking at the scene before him.

They had entered one of the only buildings standing to look for clues.

And only after searching for a bit did they find a strange note

Reading it, Four-Fingers wanted to explode.

F***!

Did these people not put them in their eyes?

Who would attack them knowing fully well that they're from the pirate organization?

Everyone felt a conspiracy underway.

Could it be the Temple?.. Or was it someone from Morgany?

One should make no mistake.

Even though the pirate organization had firmly rooted its place in Morgany, they still had a handful of enemies that always tried to get rid of them, frame them or attempt to do something else to them.

In fact, the monarchs there actually liked them and the business they brought.

But some of the nobles were very scared by them because they strictly worked alongside the monarchs, gaining their trust.

Over the years, they had, many a time, reported incidences of nobles who secretly planned to usurp the throne.

To many, these pirates were whistleblowers.

Four-Finger's heart thumped loudly as his trembling fingers held onto the note.

He was just about to see the other pirates in the other bases on the island, to attack them on why they didn't help out during the battle.

But the moment he read the last paragraph, he knew that they too had faced a gruesome event.

They were all attacked.

All bases were finished!

As for their treasures deep in the most dangerous part of the woods, the enemy had dug them all up and made a run for it.

Bam!

He punched the wall in a fit of rage after reading the note.

This bastard better prays that the pirate organization didn't find him.

Because if they did, then he would personally give the bastard hell.

Bloody son of a b**ch!

.

Four-Fingers wasn't the only one feeling insulted.

They felt like the culprits were looking down on the organization.

How dare they?

Bam!

"First Mate Four-Fingers... with the Captain Quick Eyes captured, you're now in charge.

So what do we do now?"

"First Mate, we have to rescue Captain Quick Eyes!"

"Yeah!

We have to find the bastards who did this and get revenge for him."

'The only reason they probably succeeded is because they attacked us by surprise."

After all, for decades and decades now, no one had ever publicly gone against the pirate organization like this.

So our guard was really down this time.

But it won't be the same one we actually prepare and make our move!"

"That's right!

Captain Quick Eyes needs to be rescued!"

Four-Fingers lowered his head in gloom as he listened to the men express their opinions.

Even he desperately wanted to save Quick Eyes, but he knew that for now, it would be impossible to do for the meantime.

First, they had to find the culprits before they could ever think of getting revenge or reassuring anyone.

They would have to get the word, as well as the more sent to headquarters... So in this way, the word could spread out more.

Plus, they had to get permission for Crazy Eye's pirates not to get disbanded.

What typically happened was that if a pirate went missing, the crew members could choose to apply to have their crew stay together for at most 5 years to look for their lost Captain.

And after that, if their leader wasn't found yet, the crew members would get sent to other private crews instead.

There were many new upcoming talents who were qualified to be pirate Captains.

So these several crew members typically git sent to them to assist them to stand on their feet.

Of course, the powerful crew members like the First mates would have to be auctioned out to the top dogs in the organization.

From here on out, things got tricky.

Dammit!

This was not in their plans!
