Knowing that Esther had not yet left, how could Chris possibly leave alone?
Thus, Chris had returned covertly this time to take Esther away!
Suddenly, a clamor arose.
Chris looked up to see hostages being led out of a cave by fully armed pirates, who forcibly moved them onto a ship.
None of the hostages knew where the pirates intended to take them, each displaying a look of terror on their face.
Some began to panic, and a few even attempted to escape.
However, without exception, all who tried to flee were ruthlessly gunned down.
At that moment among the hostages, Esther looked particularly anxious.
Chris had not returned after going out for the night, which greatly worried Esther.
“Come out here!”
At that moment, several pirates approached and escorted Esther and a group of women out.
“Where do you plan to take us?”
“Let us go now! What you’re doing is illegal!”
“If our army finds out, they won’t let you get away with this!”
…
The group of women started to scream hysterically.
“Shut up, all of you! Anyone who talks back gets killed!”
a pirate yelled impatiently.
Instantly, the women quieted down.
Soon after, Esther and the others were taken out of the cave and onto a ship.
From a distance, Chris closely monitored Esther’s movements.
Seeing Esther being taken away, Chris immediately submerged himself in the water and followed.
The pirates ogled Esther and the others, their faces revealing greedy expressions.
“Such beautiful women, we’ll have a good time later.”
“These are all wealthy men’s women, each one a top beauty.”
“I never thought we’d have a day like this, to get such prime beauties.”
Faced with the pirates’ lecherous stares, the women showed faces filled with terror.
Esther crouched in a corner of the ship, murmuring to herself in desolation, “My dear, where are you?”
That morning, Esther had woken up to find Chris missing.
Now, she was being taken to an unknown place, filling her heart with immense fear.
The Caribbean region was dotted with numerous islands.
Aside from the local pirates, no one knew how to navigate these islands.
The islands were surrounded by reefs, making it very easy for accidents to occur.
The islands varied in size; the smallest were only a few square meters, while the largest spanned thousands of square meters.
Thus, this area was a perfect hideout for pirates.
This was also why the armies of the surrounding nations hesitated to provoke these pirates.
Half an hour later, Esther and the others were brought to an island by the pirates.
Chris followed behind and discreetly landed on the island.
Chris carefully observed the island, which spanned about a thousand square meters, with several more islands nearby.
Nearly a thousand women were driven onto the island.
Faced with a strange environment, the women couldn’t help but start crying.
“What are you crying for? Shut up or I’ll kill you!”
The surrounding pirates watched them hungrily.
Afterwards, the women immediately stopped crying.
They did not know why they had been transferred here.
Nor did they know what they would face next.
Esther turned her head to gaze at the endless sea, tears uncontrollably streaming down her face.
“Dear, where are you? Do you know I’ve been captured and brought here?”
“If they dishonor me, I will surely choose death!”
“Dear, I love you! I am your wife! Even in death, I will not let them tarnish my body!”
At that moment, Esther’s heart was filled with terror.
She knew exactly who these pirates were; each one of them was vicious and brutal.
Gathering so many women on this island, who knew what schemes they harbored.
“Ah…”
Some women, unable to control their inner fear, began to scream in terror.
“Shut up! Everyone just shut up!”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Gunshots rang out, and dozens of screaming women fell dead, lying in pools of blood.
Seeing this, everyone finally quieted down.
Thousands of pirates immediately herded the women deeper into the island.
After they left, Chris peeked his head out from a nearby clump of grass.
Watching Esther’s retreating figure, Chris muttered through clenched teeth, “Dear, be strong, I will definitely rescue you!”
He had heard everything Esther had said.
Chris had not expected Esther, usually so shy, to utter the words “I love you.”
“Anyone who dares to harm my woman, I will tear them to pieces!”
A dragon has its reverse scales, touch them and it brings death!
And Esther was Chris’s reverse scale.
Anyone who dared to mistreat Esther would not be forgiven by Chris.
Now, Chris needed to find a way to rescue Esther and take her away from here.
But rescuing Esther was not a simple task.
Chris carefully surveyed the island, which was home to at least ten thousand pirates.
With just his own strength, rescuing Esther was going to be difficult.
“Dear, wait for me, I will definitely rescue you!”
Soon, Chris went back into hiding.
As the sky slowly darkened, Esther and the other women were confined in a huge warehouse.
This warehouse was originally intended for holding hostages.
The warehouse was foul and dirty, filled with disgusting odors.
Most of these women had lived lives of luxury.
Faced with such dire conditions, many wept quietly.
Esther sat alone in a corner, not crying, but lost in thought.
“Come here! You, and you!”
Suddenly, a group of pirates rushed in and forcefully dragged dozens of women out.
“Help! Help!”
No matter how the women screamed, they were still taken away.
Seeing this, Esther’s face turned pale.
Although she did not know what the pirates were doing with the women, she could guess it was nothing good.
Since arriving on the island, hundreds of women had been taken away.
None of the women taken by the pirates had returned.
Seeing this, some women even broke down completely.
Just then, Esther pulled a blade from her pocket.
If those pirates dared to dishonor her, she would kill herself.
