Chapter 1541: The Attack on Pirate Island
"Not good..." Lao Huang was startled and raised his gun to fire, but the distance was too great, and all the bullets missed. Furthermore, when the other side saw someone fighting back, they raised the guns in their hands and fired a burst of bullets over.
Hum... A rocket had already been launched, trailing a streak of white smoke as it headed toward the control room.
Chen Yu felt that now was not the time to hide his strength. He grabbed at the empty air with his right hand, and a strand of Primordial Qi emerged from his palm, condensing into a Barrier above, and this Barrier...
Hum, the rocket was forcibly stopped by Chen Yu. The rocket emitted white smoke and spun rapidly, but Chen Yu's Primordial Qi held it in mid-air, preventing it from advancing even an inch.
With a wave of his right hand, the bomb was forcibly wrapped in Primordial Qi and sent flying back, striking toward that speedboat.
The pirates on the speedboat saw that the situation was bad; they quickly turned around and dove headlong into the water. Only the pirate who had been carrying the rocket launcher remained, foolishly staring upward. Boom... A flash of fire erupted, and the speedboat they were riding in instantly turned into a blaze of fire.
Chen Yu's actions startled Lao Huang. He looked at Chen Yu, his whole person almost stunned. Truth be told, he had been a mercenary, had been to the battlefield, and had carried out assassinations.
He had encountered countless experts, but this was the first time he had seen someone as fierce as Chen Yu. To actually be able to control a rocket launcher with one hand?
However, Chen Yu's actions also attracted the attention of all the pirates. All the guns were aimed at Chen Yu, and then they concentrated their firepower and opened fire on Chen Yu.
With a beckon of his right hand, another Barrier appeared in front of him. Those bullets floated strangely in mid-air, blocked by the invisible screen.
All the security guards on the ship were dumbfounded. They stopped what they were doing, looked at the scene before them, and their gazes toward Chen Yu were full of worship.
The pirates were also dumbfounded, but this group of fellows lived their lives licking blood off the edge of a blade and were full of ferocity. Seeing this scene made them even more furious, and they yelled and hollered as they brought their guns to bear on Chen Yu.
Seeing that their gunfire was becoming increasingly dense and the bullets floating in mid-air were increasing, the Barrier felt vaguely as if it could not hold on.
Chen Yu's face sank. These fellows were truly ungrateful. Originally, he had not dealt a lethal blow just to give them some face.
After all, the people in this place had no conflict of interest with him. If he really slaughtered them all, it was not his original intention, and even if they were pirates, it would be extremely damaging to his own karmic merit.
But now, these fellows were courting death and insisted on touching Chen Yu's bottom line, so they should not blame Chen Yu for being impolite.
He withdrew his hand, his hands quickly forming a Seal, and with a low chant, he pointed both hands toward the sea surface.
A white Seal formed on the surface of the sea, and immediately after, the seawater actually froze into thick ice. This was the height of summer, and the location itself was in a tropical region; freezing at this time was extremely bizarre.
Within a radius of ten miles, the ice layer was a full meter thick. These fellows were shivering from the cold, and their boats were forcibly frozen in place.
Chen Yu sneered; this scene was only to shock them. Immediately, he beckoned with his right hand, and the ice surface melted instantly, followed by Lichen descending from the sky.
As he continuously injected Primordial Qi into Lichen, the floating Lichen erupted with a Sword Light over a zhang long, injecting into the water surface, and directly beneath the Sword Light, there happened to be a speedboat.
The pirates on the speedboat watched helplessly as a Sword Light descended from the sky. With a boom, that boat was reduced to powder amidst the Sword Qi.
Immediately after, the sea surface surged with ten-zhang-high waves, which boomed and rippled in all directions, and several yachts were capsized by the seawater.
These people who made a living on the sea all year round were mostly familiar with the water, so this wave of operations only caused the people on one speedboat to die; the rest of them scrambled to the surface and then swam backward without looking back.
The crisis was resolved. Apart from a few more bullet holes and five or six people injured, the cruise ship suffered no losses.
Now everyone was gathered in the lobby on the first floor. The angry people wanted an explanation, and the emotions of one bald man were the most agitated.
"Why did such a situation happen? Isn't Pirate Island a feature of your cruise ship?" the bald man roared. "I almost got shot. Those pirates actually took guns and fired at us. God, this is too dangerous. You must give me an answer."
"I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry. I also didn't expect such a thing to happen. The person in charge we were in contact with before cannot be found now. There should be a problem within the pirates. I am verifying this issue, and as soon as there is news, I will definitely explain it to everyone at the first opportunity."
Zhou Ran was trying her best to soothe everyone's emotions. She was truly overwhelmed now; she never expected that such a routine trip would encounter such a dangerous event.
Wang Cheng still could not be contacted. Judging from the situation at the scene, he had mostly met with an accident; it was likely that his former subordinates disagreed with his opinions and rebelled.
"What's the use of an apology? I want an explanation. How do you explain this matter? The lives of everyone on this ship almost ended here." A noblewoman also screamed while holding her dog.
"Enough, all of you shut up." Chen Yu truly could not bear it any longer. He roared, and he even used the Soul-Absorbing Technique. In an instant, a low, deep roar came from his throat, and the noise at the scene was instantly suppressed.
For a time, the cabin was quiet. After all, Chen Yu had displayed great power today and resolved the matter. If it weren't for Chen Yu, these people would likely have been kidnapped today.
"No one wanted to see such a thing happen. The matter is being investigated, and there will be corresponding compensation for everyone. Now what we need to do is leave this sea area. The captain has many things to be responsible for; she doesn't have time to listen to you bickering."
Chen Yu's words still had great deterrent power, and in an instant, the scene was stunned.
But there were still people protesting in low voices: "We almost died today, can't we express some opinions?"
"Yeah, isn't this too dictatorial?"
"Are you dead? It would be better if you were dead, then you'd shut your mouth." Chen Yu turned his head and said coldly: "The people who were injured haven't said anything. If you keep yapping, I'll slap you across the face."
"That group of pirates, what do you plan to do about them?" Someone else raised a question.
"What do you mean what to do? What does it have to do with me?" Chen Yu glanced at that person.
"You are so powerful, you could take out their pirate group all by yourself, why don't you go and solve these pirates once and for all?" someone said. "You have this ability, why don't you go?"
"Why don't you go? Just because you're a useless thing?" Chen Yu retorted.
"You... how can you be like this?" that person protested in a low voice: "You're so powerful, wouldn't it be fine if you just solved them?"
