Chapter 932 Now that things have come to this, how can we possibly leave the enemy a way out?
If Hu Kan knew the helmsman's inner cry, he would surely tell him—the reef? It was blown away completely, of course you can't see it.
Even he found it unbelievable when he saw it with his own eyes.
Some even suspected that Chu Xin knew all along that the reef would be blown up, otherwise why would he have so decisively told him to turn the rudder and rush straight over it?
Just as they were about to collide, a shell landed on the reef by sheer coincidence, not only averting the crisis but also allowing the ship to be pushed out of danger by cutting along the edge of the reef, thanks to the shockwave from the explosion.
The entire process was incredibly thrilling, yet it also made one wonder if some kind of magical power was involved.
Otherwise, why would it be such a coincidence?
It's a pity about the Black Shark pirate ship. They weren't so lucky. By the time they realized something was wrong, it was too late. Such a large ship was traveling at high speed, and no matter how much they slowed down, its inertia couldn't be stopped so easily.
Hu Kan was filled with emotion. After taking a deep breath, he followed Chu Xin's instructions, turned the rudder around, and stopped a little distance away from the reef area.
A sea breeze carried with it the impotent rage of Kago from the pirate ship.
Hu Kan listened quietly, gazing at the large ship that was trapped and unable to move an inch, and was momentarily stunned.
Everything before my eyes seemed to be rewinding, the sounds of mockery and insults I heard changed to something else entirely, and what I saw were corpses strewn across destroyed homes, and houses looted and burned on the blood-stained ground...
His memories from when he was eight or nine years old have stayed with him for almost thirty years, and have tormented him for thirty years.
But just now, the once invincible presence in these Southeast Asian waters had one of its ships destroyed not long ago, and now another one has been captured. This unreal yet exciting feeling washed over Hu Kan's long-numbed heart again and again.
His face twitched uncontrollably, as if in spasm, because he really wanted to laugh, really wanted to burst out laughing.
Just as he was trying to release his excitement and joy, "slap!" someone slapped him hard on the back.
His hand moved faster than his brain, and he grabbed the hand that was still on him, trying to pull the other person over his shoulder and throw them away.
Ge Shaoting was suddenly stunned and somewhat bewildered. The words "What are you spacing out for? Get to work!" were swallowed back down his throat.
Fortunately, Chu Xin intervened in time and pinched the numb vein on Hu Kan's arm, preventing him from actually throwing Ge Shaoting due to the sudden pain and numbness.
Hu Kan snapped out of his daze and turned to look. Seeing that it was Chu Xin, he immediately loosened his grip and said, "Sorry, I was daydreaming."
"There aren't many people to begin with, so don't be a bad teammate and ruin your own team, understand?" Chu Xin calmly withdrew her hand, but she had deliberately increased the force beforehand, causing Hu Kan's face to turn pale in pain for a moment.
But this also brought him to a complete state of mind. He quickly nodded in agreement, then realized he was still holding Ge Shaoting's hand and immediately let go, apologizing, "I'm sorry, I didn't hurt you, did I?"
"It's nothing." Ge Shaoting casually flexed his wrists and reiterated, "Don't stand there in a daze. This is the perfect opportunity for revenge. If you miss it, you'll be an unfilial son of your family."
"That's natural!"
Hu Kan nodded solemnly, then looked at Chu Xin and asked, "What do we do next? The current safe distance is a double constraint."
It's true that the pirate ship is trapped, but its firepower still poses a threat. Getting close to engage in a firefight is simply not feasible, and you might even be killed by the enemy.
But if they don't get close, their ship doesn't have any long-range artillery shells. Are they just going to stand by and watch?
Chu Xin smiled mysteriously, her voice even sounding somewhat excited, "Hey, it's no big deal. Let's prepare first, and then we'll just wait for the rabbit to come to us."
"Waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump? What does that mean?" Ge Shaoting asked, puzzled.
Yang Zheng had a guess in his mind, "Could it be that they are just waiting here for the pirates to jump into the sea to escape when the ship is about to sink, and then killing them one by one?"
The method is good, but how long will it take? What if their reinforcements arrive? Then this plan will fall through.
"Don't worry, that ship is so big and fast, the impact must have been severe. Besides, the ship is already drafted very deep. How long do you think it can hold out before it sinks?" Chu Xin said confidently.
She wasn't the type to put in effort for nothing; having come this far, how could she possibly leave the enemy a way out?
