2479 Kraken
"No... no... I can't take you there..."
When the chief heard this, he was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and screamed with an extremely exaggerated expression, wanting to refuse.
But before he finished speaking, he saw Ding Ning extending his hand expressionlessly, with a bright red flame burning quietly in his palm, which made him feel a strong death threat. His screams suddenly stopped and his face turned pale.
The clouds changed, and finally he shrugged in frustration and said helplessly: "Okay, you win, I will take you there, but I want to know what you want to do with Blackbeard."
Ding Ning took out a cigarette, lit it with the flame in his palm, took a deep drag, and exhaled a cloud of green smoke: "Don't worry, I mean no harm."
"No malice? I believe you are the only one who has seen a ghost."
The chief murmured softly, but glanced at Ding Ning's palm with curiosity and envy. If only he could do this, he wouldn't need to carry a lighter wherever he goes.
Ding Ning smiled and said nothing, not bothering to explain to him that under the threat of death, he believed that the chief would not dare to play any tricks.
Half an hour later, Ding Ning followed the chief, whose eyes were shining and his face was full of admiration, to a hidden island more than a hundred nautical miles away from Hobio Port.
The Three Caves of Cunning Rabbits have been played to perfection by the pirates. This island is just a temporary stronghold for the Blackbeard Pirates, not their base camp. Otherwise, the chief, who still has a little sense of loyalty in his bones, might not have brought him there so easily.
here.
Of course, after he deliberately showed off his tricks to make the Aqua Tribe drive a huge deep-sea squid to become their mount, the chief was completely impressed. He screamed Kraken repeatedly, with a look of fanaticism and piety on his face, and could no longer give birth to anything.
little thoughts.
You know, Somali pirates basically have no culture, and since they make a living at sea, they are particularly superstitious at heart.
The deep-sea squid is called Kraken in Nordic mythology. It is a god who can call the wind and rain, bring disasters and destroy everything. In the hearts of pirates, it is no less than a sea god.
But Kraken, who was like a god in his heart, actually obeyed the words of the young Eastern wizard in front of him, which completely made him unable to have any intention of resisting. He was full of awe towards Ding Ning, and even changed his title to "Sir".
"Chief, why are you here?"
Although the island was only a temporary settlement, it was heavily guarded. As soon as the two landed ashore, more than a dozen pirates on guard pointed at them with AK47s as if they were faced with a formidable enemy. Only after they saw clearly that it was the chief, did they
asked in confusion.
In particular, there was an unfamiliar oriental face next to the chief, which made them relax their vigilance slightly, but they did not put down their guns.
"I have something urgent to ask Blackbeard. Put down the gun. This gentleman is my most distinguished guest."
The chief was respectful in front of Ding Ning, but in front of these pirates, he put on an air of arrogance and scolded him with his head held high.
It has to be said that the Blackbeard Pirates Group's reputation as one of the four major pirate groups is by no means in vain. Even if the chief, the third leader, spoke, the pirates in charge of vigilance did not let down their guard. Although they lowered their guns, they still did not relax their vigilance.
.
One of the leading pirate captains looked embarrassed and said apologetically: "Chief, I'm sorry, we didn't get the order from the master. We have distinguished guests coming to visit. Please wait here for a while, and let us go and report to the master first.
"
The chief's face was a bit ugly, but he also knew that this was the rule of the group, and even he could not break it. He glanced at Ding Ning subconsciously, fearing that in his anger, Kraken would cause trouble and directly flood the entire island.
"It's okay, go and notify Blackbeard, we'll just wait here for a while."
Since Ding Ning wants to love
When Dehua got the news out of his mouth, he would naturally not force his way into a conflict and make the other party hostile, so he immediately said calmly.
There was a look of gratitude in the chief's eyes. Now he finally believed that Ding Ning was really not looking for trouble. Otherwise, with his ability, he would not have to follow the rules to visit Blackbeard. He could have ordered Kraken to directly destroy the entire pirate group.
"Go quickly."
Seeing that the pirates on duty were still watching him eagerly waiting for orders without taking any action, the chief suddenly became furious and shouted harshly.
"Yes, chief, please wait a moment with this...distinguished guest. I will go and report it right away."
Seeing the chief's anger, the little pirate leader secretly complained in his heart, fearing that he would offend the third master and let him wear small shoes in the future. He quickly responded with a respectful shout and ran towards the island.
The other pirates who were on guard looked curiously at Ding Ning, who was standing with his hands behind his back. They really couldn't understand what kind of distinguished guest he was that could allow the third master to lead him in the middle of the night even if he didn't hesitate to expose one of their places of stay.
Come and visit.
Especially when they discovered that there was no ship behind the two landing, as if they were flying in, their expressions became even more confused.
Ten minutes later, the little pirate leader strode up behind a particularly tall and majestic black man. From a long distance away, the majestic black man cursed at the top of his lungs: "Chief, what the hell are you doing, in the middle of the night?"
He brought an outsider to the island and asked him if he had rebelled."
The chief's face darkened, and he cursed angrily: "Minister, stop talking nonsense, am I that kind of person?"
The corner of Ding Ning's mouth twitched, and his expression became extremely strange.
Chief? Minister? What the hell are these names?
The chief seemed to have noticed his thoughts. He scratched his head and chuckled. He lowered his voice in embarrassment and said: "Sir, I made you laugh. When we first formed the pirate group with Blackbeard, in order to compete for the ranking of second master, third master and fourth master.
The blows were severe and bloody, but in the end it was Blackbeard who spoke up and ranked by name, so that the minister could become the second in command."
Ding Ning was stunned and said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "This is too casual."
"Hey, Blackbeard has always been such a casual person. In fact, we all know that it is enough for the entire pirate group to have Blackbeard as the leader. We are just his randomly selected helpers."
When the chief talked about Blackbeard, his eyes shone with admiration. It seemed that Blackbeard's prestige in their minds was really high.
Ding Ning looked astonished. It turned out that in the minds of the pirates, only Blackbeard was the true and arbitrary spiritual leader of the entire pirate group. The second and third masters were all randomly appointed by him in order to show off the pirate group.
Characters are the kind of existence that can be replaced at any time. No wonder the pirates responsible for guarding were unwilling to let them go when they saw the chief.
The chief did not feel inferior because of this, but said proudly: "Among the four heads, I am the weakest one, but my name is good, so I became the third head."
"What's the name of the fourth master?"
Ding Ning asked amusedly.
"village head."
The chief replied with a proud face, as if his name surpassed that of the village chief and became one of the three families, which is something to be extremely proud of.
Ding Ning was dumbfounded. The name of this big African brother was so casual. It was even more casual than Blackbeard, the legendary pirate king.
However, he can also understand that black people are a strange race of people who are lazy by nature but extremely optimistic by nature. No matter how hard life is, even if a relative has just died, they will still be happy as long as they encounter something that they think is worthy of joy.
Sing and dance.
Death is often not a destination for them, but a kind of relief, so they are not very afraid of death.
Most people will start to work passively or even disappear after getting enough salary to squander it for a period of time. After squandering the money, they will come back to work honestly. After making a lot of money, they will start working again.
Go to a lavish and luxurious place...
Of course, this also has something to do with the rich natural resources God has given Africa. There are wild fruits, small beasts and various insects that can feed them everywhere, which is enough to ensure that as long as they are not in war-torn areas or where there is no guarantee of life,
If you encounter an irresistible natural or man-made disaster, you will never starve to death easily.
This constitutes their lazy habit of being lazy and not productive, and they often do not cherish even the best employment opportunities.
Although Africa's poverty, backwardness and chaos are largely caused by the deliberate efforts of some Western developed countries to plunder profits, it is not unrelated to their lazy habits.
Although Ding Ning did not comment on this habit, he still admired the optimistic spirit of black people.
Anping Country has suffered a lot of humiliation and suffering in its history, but compared with Africa, which has a history of blood and tears of black slaves, those sufferings are nothing to mention.
In 1441, black people were trafficked to Southern Europe, the Arab world, Persia, South Asia and other places via the Sahara trade route, the Nile River and the Indian Ocean.
According to statistics, during the 400-year slavery process of the black tribe's "slave-hunting war", tens of millions of black Africans were killed. In the first half of the 18th century, Saint-Domingue Island imported a total of 2.8 million slaves, but by 1976, only 2.8 million slaves were imported into the island.
There are more than 65,000 people left, and an average of more than 40,000 people die every year.
According to the calculation method that for every slave transported to the Americas, at least 10 black Africans must be sacrificed. The slave trade caused the loss of up to 100 million people in Africa. This number is equivalent to the total population of Africa in 1980. With blood and bones, who knows that in the turbulent waves,
How many skeletons of black slaves are buried in the abyss of the Atlantic Ocean.
The common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying the jade.
Africa's rich natural resources and rich mineral resources will naturally attract people to covet it, and a turbulent Africa will serve the interests of more ambitious people.
"Hey, Dongfang boy, are you the distinguished guest that the chief said?"
The minister is a rare big man, two meters tall and definitely weighs more than two hundred kilograms. However, he is not bloated, but has muscles like rocks. Standing in front of Ding Ning, he looks like a black iron tower.
Gives people extremely strong pressure.
But who is Ding Ning? Not to mention that the minister is just an ordinary person. Even a demigod-level expert will never put any pressure on him.
On the contrary, the chief's face changed drastically. Although the minister was not polite at all when he spoke to him, the relationship between the two of them was still very good in private. He hurriedly stepped forward and said nervously: "Minister, don't talk nonsense, this is the wizard from the east.
, even Kraken obeys your orders."
"Kraken?"
The minister was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, poked the chief on the chest with his carrot-thick fingers, rolled his eyes and said jokingly: "Chief, did your head get crushed by some man's leg?
What kind of being is Kraken to tell such ridiculous lies...ah."
Before he finished speaking, huge waves suddenly broke out on the seaside. A deep-sea squid surfaced, and its huge arms and legs spread its teeth and claws in the air. The minister and a group of pirates were so frightened that they knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed to the deep-sea squid.
