“What should we do, my love? The plane is about to explode!”
Esther was on the verge of tears.
Chris held Esther tightly and said, “Don’t be afraid, my dear. Close your eyes, and we’ll jump together!”
“Okay!”
Esther nodded vigorously and said, “My love, we may not have been born on the same day of the same month, but let’s die on the same day of the same month of the same year!”
“Don’t worry, my dear, I won’t let us die!”
“Hold on to me, I’ll count to three, and then we jump!”
“One!”
“Two!”
“Three!”
“Jump!”
With a splash, Chris and Esther, hand in hand, jumped hundreds of meters from the helicopter into the sea.
Ironheart Steer scoffed and commanded, “Send out all the speedboats and ships. I want Chris found-alive or dead, it doesn’t matter…”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Before Ironheart Steer could finish his sentence, a series of explosions erupted, shaking the entire island like an earthquake.
“What’s happening?”
Ironheart Steer shouted.
“Mr. Steer, it’s bad! Tiger is leading ten warships our way, and countless shells are bombarding us!”
Dark Sin said, panicked.
“Damn it! This is just awful!”
Ironheart Steer’s face turned ashen. He hadn’t expected Tiger to attack at such a critical moment.
“Send my command, all pirates to battle!”
“Yes!”
At his command, a hundred thousand pirates began to fight against Tiger.
Seeing the pirates engaging the enemy, Ironheart Steer whispered to Dark Sin, “Prepare a ship immediately. We’ll take all the gambling money from the casino ship and leave the Caribbean!”
Ironheart Steer knew better than to rely on these pirates to stop Tiger. He planned to use the pirates as cannon fodder while he escaped with the practitioners from the Hall of Valerian and a few hundred billion dollars in gambling money.
Since Chris had already jumped from the helicopter into the vast ocean, his chances of survival seemed slim.
He didn’t believe Chris was indestructible; not even Chris could survive a jump from hundreds of meters high into the sea!
Meanwhile, on the deck of a warship, Tiger looked through a telescope at the sea.
Seeing the dense crowd of pirates charging forth, a disdainful smile appeared on Tiger’s lips.
“Issue the order, all warships to fire. We must annihilate these pirates!”
“Yes!”
Boom! Boom! Boom! Rat-a-tat-tat!
At his command, countless shells and bullets rained down like dense raindrops on the pirates.
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
“Ah!”
…
Screams echoed one after another.
Soon, the pirates could no longer hold on.
“They’re just pirates; how can they compete with a regular army?”
“It’s too much! We need to run!”
“If we don’t escape now, we’re all going to die here!”
Within moments, all the pirates had collapsed.
The pirates desperately fled, and the sea was filled with the densely packed bodies of tens of thousands of pirates, turning the water red with blood.
Seeing the pirates fleeing, Tiger waved his hand and said, “Speed up and move forward, find the boss quickly!”
As his words fell, ten warships cut through the waves, unstoppable.
“Mr. Steer, it’s bad! The pirates have collapsed. Tiger is coming with his men, and they’ll be here in a minute!”
“Useless! What a bunch of useless people!”
“A hundred thousand men couldn’t even last a few minutes. Even a hundred thousand pigs wouldn’t be caught so quickly!”
Ironheart Steer was furious.
A hundred thousand pirates, yet they couldn’t hold their ground for even three minutes before retreating.
Indeed, they were nothing but a disorganized mob.
Ironheart Steer regretted his decision to ally with these pirates.
Taking a deep breath, Ironheart Steer asked, “How are the preparations for the ships?”
Dark Sin replied, “Mr. Steer, the ships are ready, and all the betting money has been transferred aboard.”
“Excellent! Issue my command, start immediately!”
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
…
Just as Ironheart Steer was about to board the ship and escape, suddenly, cannonballs rained down from the sky.
“Ah…”
Members of the Hall of Valerian were blown into the air, screaming pitifully.
“Tiger and the Guards of Death are coming!”
“Run! Run!”
“Quick, quick, quick…”
Tiger led three thousand Guards of Death ashore, unstoppable in their advance.
The pirates and the Hall of Valerian members couldn’t hold them back.
Ironheart Steer yelled in anger, “Hold them back! Send ten thousand Hall of Valerian members to hold them off!”
Ironheart Steer needed time to board the ship; he absolutely couldn’t let Tiger reach him now.
“Kill them!”
“Kill them!”
“Kill them!”
Ten thousand Hall of Valerian members charged at the three thousand Guards of Death.
Seeing these members, Tiger smirked with a trace of mockery.
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
Suddenly, a deafening roar of engines sounded.
Tanks rolled down from warships, charging towards the island.
“Ah…”
“Tanks! Tanks!”
“We can’t hold them! We can’t hold them! Run, run!”
Seeing hundreds of tanks rolling towards them, ten thousand Hall of Valerian members completely collapsed.
“Mr. Steer, we must board the ship now! If we don’t, it’ll be too late!”
Ironheart Steer’s face was filled with reluctance; he was unwilling to fail like this.
But now, amidst the rolling steel tide, he simply couldn’t hold them off.
“Let’s go!”
Ironheart Steer shouted, leading the remaining Hall of Valerian members to start boarding the ship.
“Commander Tiger, it’s not good, Ironheart Steer is preparing to escape by ship.”
“Escape? No way!”
“Pass down my order, have the missile boats intercept them!”
“Yes!”
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Missile boats moved out, beginning to intercept Ironheart Steer and his team.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Missiles whistled in, exploding directly on the ship.
“Mr. Steer, it’s bad, the missile boats are here, we must escape alone, or we’ll all die here!”
Dark Sin’s face was filled with anxiety.
Ironheart Steer’s face turned completely livid.
He had never expected Tiger’s attack to be so fierce.
“But there are several hundred billion dollars in betting money on the ship! If we lose this betting money, how will I explain it to the prince?”
Ironheart Steer was extremely conflicted; that was several hundred billion dollars!
If lost, even if he returned, Daniel Williams would not let him off!
Rumble!
Rumble!
Rumble!
“It’s bad! Helicopters! Helicopters!”
Suddenly, helicopters appeared in the sky.
Dada dada!
The next second, flames of gunfire spewed out.
“Ah…”
One by one, Hall of Valerian members were pierced by bullets, their blood dyeing the ocean red.
“Mr. Steer, we must transfer to the speedboat and escape quickly, carrying this money will only slow us down!”
On land, there were tanks.
At sea, there were missile boats.
In the sky, there were helicopters.
Now, Ironheart Steer truly had no escape, whether by land, sea, or air.
