I Inherited 5,000 Years of Family Property-Chapter 698 - 696 Are You Sick?

Although no one knew how Zhang Menglong had managed to make those pirates flee in terror, it seemed safe now. The pirates had abandoned their gear and headed back to their own ship, then turned around and started to escape on the spot.

As soon as the military's accompanying group saw this, they grew braver. With their destroyers and aircraft carriers on the way, what was there to fear? Who would be afraid then? Now that the pirates wanted to run, could they even escape?

"Call the aircraft carrier group, Mr. Zhang's yacht has been attacked by pirates, please support us as soon as possible!" the accompanying group immediately sent out a distress call to the head of the aircraft carrier fleet.

"What? Mr. Zhang encountered pirates?" On hearing this news, the captain immediately became tense. If Zhang Menglong or someone by his side were taken hostage by the pirates, whose responsibility would it be?

Although it was the pirates' doing, this incident was happening within South Africa's territory. If something really went wrong, wouldn't they have to be contacted? It's your maritime security that wasn't set right. If not you, then who else should be held accountable?

"Fighter jets take off immediately, all warships advance at full speed, watch out for reefs! A small team takes motor boats and moves out first. We must ensure Mr. Zhang's personal and property safety!"

...

"This really is unbelievable!" Gorik still somewhat shaken, returned to his own boat.

Having been a pirate for years, braving the storms and countless times skirting the edge of death, his courage was proven without a doubt.

But today's event was too supernatural, he couldn't help but be scared! What kind of power could remotely remove bullets from a gun's chamber? Was that even a humanly possible feat?

"Easterners are really too mystical. From now on, if we encounter people from Huaxia, it's better to steer clear," Gorik said to his lieutenant, "Let's leave this area quickly, we might be visited by South African maritime police or even United Nations warships soon."

Gorik's head was worth 2 million US Dollars internationally, and several of his pirate leaders also had hefty bounties on their heads. Once spotted, they were literally moving money bags.

"No....it's bad!" A pirate lackey rushed into the captain's cabin, appearing frantic.

"What happened? What's wrong?"

"Captain...warships! There are warships in the distance! There are also airplanes in the sky, and several combat boats are already heading our way!"

"What? Do you know whose warships they are?"

"They are flying the flag of South Africa, and I just caught a glimpse of something very big... it seems... it seems to be an aircraft carrier..."

"What did you say?" Enraged, Gorik immediately shot the pirate dead.

"Go out and look!"

Gorik and a few of his close aides walked onto the deck.

They were already surrounded!

Three destroyers were positioned in a triangular formation around them, with five armed helicopters circling overhead, their menacing weapons aimed at them, ready to fire at any moment.

The combat boats below were ready, poised to storm the ship at any moment.

In the distance, that hundreds of meters long behemoth seemed utterly despairing.

Just now, the accompanying group had told him about the aircraft carrier group protecting the yacht, and he had dismissed it as a joke. Now, reality told him, there really was an aircraft carrier group!

If you are the world's richest man, you go out to sea to play around, and you say you bring a security team, that's one thing, but you bring an entire aircraft carrier group? Can't you afford it, you little trash, don't you really have the power?!

"Attention everyone on board, you are now surrounded, put down all weapons and surrender immediately, or we will attack. You have one minute!"

It wasn't the first time the pirates had encountered an invincible opponent, but in most cases, they had hostages in their hands. So even if they were surrounded by warships, they could negotiate with the other side using the hostages.

But they had not been operational for a long time, where would they get hostages? Just now, they had been terrified by Zhang Menglong's eerie tactics; who would remember to take a couple of people as hostages?

This meant the aircraft carrier group could attack them without any restraint, as everyone on board was a pirate, and even if a missile killed them all, what did it matter? They didn't need to take anyone alive.

"Captain, what should we do?"

"What else can we do? Can we win?"

Although the pirate ship was also well-equipped, even comparable to some backward countries' warships, they were up against a damned aircraft carrier, how could they fight that?

If there had been any hope of winning or escaping, these desperate outlaws would have had the guts to take on the regular army.

But the issue was, there was simply no fighting this! No pirate ship could withstand a missile, and if one missile didn't do the job, then two would!

As for jumping into the water to escape, did they think the enemy's combat boats were toys? The moment they surfaced to breathe, a bullet would blow their heads off!

Even if they managed to escape, there was nowhere to land within ten kilometers. Where could they go?

"Just surrender! South Africa doesn't have the death penalty," Gorik said with a helpless expression.

"We surrender, we surrender!"

"Smack!" Gorik was thrown down, tightly bound, in front of Zhang Menglong, "Mr. Zhang, this is Gorik, the leader of that pirate ship. How do you plan to deal with him?"

Gorik looked up at Zhang Menglong. This man from Huaxia could not only mobilize an aircraft carrier to protect himself but could also directly command the fleet! The highest leader of this carrier strike group was actually asking Zhang Menglong for instructions on how to proceed!

"Who on earth are you?"

"Don't I already know?" Zhang Menglong smiled, "Aren't you curious why they listen to me?"

"It's simple, they owe me several hundred billion US dollars. It's not too much to ask their carrier strike group to come and protect me, right?"

"This..." Gorik was speechless; he thought Zhang Menglong had some terrifying identity, but that was it? Having money was indeed a damn superpower!

"Now that we've become your prisoners, you can kill or butcher us as you please; we in this trade have long been prepared for this!"

"Oh, we can't do that, if we killed you, who would play with us?" Zhang Menglong laughed. "How many pirates do you have on this ship?"

Gorik was startled. Why was Zhang Menglong asking this?

"A total of 54 people."

"That's too few!" Zhang Menglong shook his head, "Not thrilling enough, do you have any accomplices?"

"What exactly do you want to do?" Gorik was puzzled, what did he mean by 'not thrilling enough'?

"We want you to join us in a game of escape room!" Zhang Menglong said, "Oh, here it comes!"

"What's here?"

At that moment, a supply drop box fell from the sky, landing precisely on Zhang Menglong's yacht.

This was a quite large empty head, almost as big as a shipping container.

"Clang!" Zhang Menglong opened the container and moved out set after set of equipment.

"Hehe, brand new real-life CS shooting equipment!" Zhang Menglong said, "We're going to play a real-life version of Caribbean pirates, isn't that much more exciting than fishing and swimming at sea? You guys are professionals, just act as NPCs!"

The pirates were dumbfounded, so were the officers on those warships.

After all the effort to capture this batch of pirates, now you're telling me you want them to act as NPCs and play real-life CS with you? Has the scope of pirate employment really broadened this much?

Are you some kind of freak? Are you sick? Asking us, the most vicious and brutal pirates, to play with you, aren't you afraid of getting killed?

"You are all criminals, and according to South African law, although you won't be sentenced to death, you're looking at a couple of hundreds of years in prison," Zhang Menglong said, "As long as you perform well, I guarantee you the fairest treatment, at least you won't be molested by other prisoners in jail!"
