Chapter 1540: Pirate Island

"Alright, alright, I get it, thank you, Big Brother," the few people said, bowing and scraping.

"That's enough, go on," Chen Yu waved his hand; these few people didn't look like anyone particularly wicked or vicious.

Moreover, judging by what they meant, they were also victims, so he wouldn't hold it against them this time.

However, Chen Yu couldn't swallow this insult; he picked up his phone and dialed Zhou Ran's number: "Help me check on someone named Wu Siyu, she's on your ship."

"There is no registration information for this person on the ship, what's wrong?" Zhou Ran replied to Chen Yu quickly.

"No such person? It seems she used fake information," Chen Yu muttered to himself: "Then show me the photos of all the females between twenty and twenty-eight years old."

"Fine, come over to my place," Zhou Ran replied over the phone.

When he arrived at Zhou Ran's place, she opened her computer and pulled up all the passenger data for young females for Chen Yu to see.

Chen Yu scanned through it, but surprisingly, he didn't find Wu Siyu's photo.

"Understood, she knows Disguise Technique," Chen Yu nodded slightly; there were over a thousand people on the ship, if she wanted to hide, it would be truly hard to find her once she blended into the crowd.

"Do you want me to help you screen them? It wouldn't be difficult if you want to find her," Zhou Ran asked.

"No need, it's not a big deal, I was just teased by someone today," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Let her be."

"Who is so bold as to tease you?" Zhou Ran was stunned; in her view, Chen Yu was a Dharma Cultivator, after all. Who could be so bold as to dare tease a Dharma Cultivator?

"A girl who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth; I misjudged her this time," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Is our ship almost near Pirate Island?"

"Yes, we'll be there soon, in about a dozen nautical miles," Zhou Ran nodded: "Our ship will be docked here for half a day, if you're interested, you can go down and take a look."

"Are you very familiar with the leader here?" Chen Yu turned his head to ask Zhou Ran.

"Yes, we met by chance, we're quite familiar. His name is Wang Cheng; I'll introduce you to him after we get off the ship," Zhou Ran said.

"No need, I have no interest in meeting strangers," Chen Yu smiled slightly, then left.

By evening, they finally arrived at this Pirate Island.

Since it was a place where pirates lived, it certainly carried a thick air of banditry; from far away, several small boats carrying people were already rowing toward the cruise ship.

And the cruise ship had already hung a special flag; this was the sign of being one of their own, and this was also the consensus reached between Zhou Ran and Wang Cheng.

As long as this flag was hung, it meant they were their own people, and that group of pirates would only take a look from afar even if they were holding guns, and would lead the way in front.

But the pirates on these few boats today seemed a bit unusual.

Although the flag was hung, they were still approaching the cruise ship at an extremely fast speed.

"Why do I feel like something is wrong?" Chen Yu's brows locked together; he stared at those armed pirates, lost in thought.

"It's fine, we've been coming here for hundreds of times over the past few years, I'm familiar with everyone here, that one-eyed man in the front is one of Wang Cheng's people," Zhou Ran said happily: "It can't be wrong, don't worry."

Gradually, the pirate ships approached, and the people standing on the deck kept waving and screaming at the pirate ships.

Zhou Ran wore a smile, watching the boats slowly approach.

And just at this moment, the one-eyed foreign man with a small braid in the front stood up; his skin was dark, his figure was short, and his cold, gloomy gaze carried a trace of viciousness.

"Hi, Dike, we meet again," Zhou Ran smiled: "How is Wang Cheng? This time I brought some local specialties from home, you will definitely like them."

The pirate leader named Dike curled his lips; a trace of sinister, poisonous laughter appeared on his face, and he suddenly waved his hand, making an attacking gesture.

"Not good, they are going to open fire, retreat quickly," Chen Yu was startled; he had already seen Dike's intention, this bastard was going to open fire.

He lunged over violently, pinning Zhou Ran to the ground; almost at the same time she was tackled by Chen Yu, the pirates on the five boats had already opened fire.

Bang, bang, bang—the intense sound of gunfire accompanied the screams of those hit, and for a moment, everything fell into chaos.

Zhou Ran was still shaken, and Chen Yu grabbed her: "Go to the control room, have the ship retreat and leave, bypass this place."

"Okay, okay..." Zhou Ran struggled to climb up, hunched over, and ran stumbling toward the control room.

The people on the deck were panicked and fleeing in all directions, and the injured were groaning on the ground.

Fortunately, those pirates were still some distance away from the ship, and this barrage of bullets was fired blindly, but five or six people were still hit by stray bullets, and for a moment, the deck was in total chaos.

"Everyone, return to the ship's cabin, do not panic," Chen Yu shouted in a deep voice, channeling his Original Power, and his voice carried far away.

This shout of his undoubtedly stunned the scene; the panicked crowd immediately steadied themselves and ran out in an orderly fashion.

Some people even helped up the injured, bending over as they ran inside.

A group of security guards wearing bulletproof vests rushed over; they were also holding weapons in their hands, found cover, and exchanged fire with that group of pirates.

The security guards here stood at a high vantage point, which gave them a slight advantage, but their weapons were inferior to those of the pirate group; the weapons here were pistols, and at most, they had a few shotguns, and only a few of those.

But the dozens of pirates were all holding semi-automatic weapons like AKs; they were truly at a disadvantage in the fight, and the security guards on the ship were being suppressed by the group of pirates in front of them, unable to lift their heads.

"Mr. Chen, you should go back to the cabin, it's dangerous here," Lao Huang approached Chen Yu's side.

"No rush, do you recognize all the security guards in front of us?" Chen Yu asked.

"The one leading them, Dike, is Wang Cheng's top general; we all knew each other before, but I don't know what happened this time, they just started shooting as soon as they held their guns," Lao Huang said with some anger: "I don't know what happened."

"Have you been able to contact Wang Cheng?" Chen Yu asked, staring at Dike.

"Can't get through, the phone hasn't been answered, I guess there's internal strife," Lao Huang raised his gun and fired two shots back: "Mr. Chen, go back to the cabin, the ship has already started, let's leave this sea area quickly, they can't chase us too far."

"I'm afraid that won't work, they have speedboats, our ship is too big, we can't outrun them at all," Chen Yu's brows were slightly locked: "And they have heavy weapons in their hands."

"Heavy weapons? Where?" Lao Huang was startled.

"In the hands of that pirate on the left, a rocket launcher; if this fires a shot, the ship will probably be damaged," Chen Yu said, staring at the pirate on one of the speedboats.

Lao Huang followed his gaze and looked; sure enough, a black man had already hoisted the rocket launcher onto his shoulder and was already aiming at the ship.
