The rise of the poor

"A way out, what do you mean by a way out?" The Japanese pirate's eyes suddenly widened. Even though he had some guesses in his mind, he was still shocked to the point of being unable to control himself after hearing these words from his trusted Japanese pirate.

"Our retreat." The trusted Japanese pirate stared at the other Japanese pirate and spoke word by word.

"Our retreat?" The Japanese pirate narrowed his eyes.

"We have already said that even if the leader survives, he will surely lose his power, and our confidants will not have a good ending either. If we don't want to sit and wait for death, we must think about our way out."

The trusted Japanese pirate said slowly, looking at the Japanese pirate with burning eyes.

"It's time to think about a way out, but isn't it too late to worship the kiln of Chief Xu Hai now?"

The Japanese pirate touched his chin and said with a sigh.

The trusted Japanese pirate heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was worried that this guy would be loyal to Ma Ye and it would be difficult to persuade him.

Fortunately, fortunately we are all unscrupulous Japanese pirates, fortunately we are all profit-seeking Japanese pirates, fortunately we are all selfish Japanese pirates.

There is no such thing as loyalty for people like us. We always think about ourselves and our own interests.

As the saying goes, whoever gives you milk is your mother.

If there is loyalty, it is only because being loyal to someone brings us greater benefits than betraying him or being loyal to someone else.

"It's not too late." The trusted Japanese pirate curled his lips.

"Isn't it too late?"

The Japanese pirate was surprised. It was already this late. Was it not too late to visit Xu Hai's kiln? !
"It's too late!" the trusted Japanese pirate continued, "It's too late to make friends with the executioner when the knife is on your neck."

"You, at this time, you are still in the mood to play tricks on me?!" The Japanese pirate raised his eyebrows, looking displeased.

"I want you to be mentally prepared, otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear what I'm going to say next," the trusted Japanese pirate said slowly.

"We are all people who crawled out of a pile of dead bodies. What words can we not bear? What do you think? Say it quickly and don't waste time." The Japanese pirate urged impatiently, thinking that his trusted Japanese pirate was too slow.

"I think it's time for us to change allegiance." The trusted Japanese pirate looked at the Japanese pirate with burning eyes and said meaningfully.

"Well, that's fine. We are the only ones left after our fellow Japanese pirates died, and we don't have much help. It's fine to change sides, but who should we join? Should we go south to join Hui Wang Zhi?"

The Japanese pirate had no objection to changing sides, but he just didn't know who he should join.

After all the calculations, apart from the Takulin pirates, the only other pirate who can be considered the leader of the current pirates is the undisputed leader of the current pirates, the King Hui, Wang Zhi.

"With just these few people like us, if we go to join Hui Wang Wang Zhi, we won't even be qualified to meet the ten captains under Hui Wang's command. If we join them, we will only become cannon fodder." The trusted Japanese pirate smiled helplessly.

There are only six of them left now. Apart from the two of them who are getting better, there are four people left, no, to be precise, there should be two and a half people. Leader Ma Ye can only be counted as half a person. Although he is still fighting, he is already delirious with fever and is still shaking. It is estimated that it will be difficult for him to fight. The real Japanese is about to die and can no longer be counted as a human being. The remaining two Japanese pirates are both sick, and one is still getting worse. The only good news is that the two are still awake.

With just these few men, they would not be able to cause even the slightest ripple if they were to join Prince Hui. Not to mention meeting Prince Hui's Wang Zhi, the news would not even reach Prince Hui's Wang Zhi's ears. I'm afraid they would not even be qualified to meet the captains under Prince Hui's command.

Any random Japanese pirate captain could recruit them, and he, who had surrendered to them, could only become cannon fodder.

"If we can't rely on Hui Wang Zhi, who else can we rely on and who can we be under?"

The Japanese pirate frowned. Apart from Wang Zhi, he really couldn't think of anyone else they could turn to.

Although the Japanese pirate problem in the whole Jiangnan area was very serious, and although there were hundreds of Japanese pirate gangs of all sizes in Jiangnan, there were only a handful of them that were large in scale, strong in strength, and worthy of their allegiance. It could even be said that there was only one, Prince Hui, Wang Zhi.

"To rely on others is nothing more than to wait for a price, and the premise of waiting for a price is to know what price we have."

The trusted Japanese pirates gave good persuasion.

"Our price is our own. We have been pirates for more than ten years. We have experience in burning, killing and looting. Moreover, we are good at fighting. It's hard to say whether we can defeat ten enemies with one, but we can definitely defeat five with one."

The Japanese pirate thought for a moment and said.

"It's just that he has a little brute force. Both Chief Xu Hai and Prince Hui Wang Zhi have plenty of people with brute force. If we rely on brute force to join them, we can only be a sergeant at best, and we will still be cannon fodder."

The trusted Japanese pirate curled his lips and said disapprovingly.

"Then what price do we have? Even if we are just four or five, no, three or four people, we won't be valued."

The Japanese pirate sighed.

The two of them are in good health now, and Hei San is also okay, so he should be able to make it. Liu Da is in serious condition, and although he is still awake, his condition is getting worse and worse. It is hard to say whether the leader can survive the night. The samurai from the Japanese island is already dead.

So, there were only three or four of them left.

If three or four hundred people come to seek refuge, you may still be respected by some people. But if only three or four people come to seek refuge, no one will take you seriously.

They have tens of thousands of Japanese pirates under their command, so why would they care about a few of us?! You must be kidding.

In fact, the same principle applies to Leader Xu Hai.

If they still had thousands of Japanese pirates under their command, although they were Chief Ma Ye's confidants, and although Chief Xu Hai would fight with Chief Ma Ye, Chief Xu Hai might still be able to win them over. However, in today's battle, almost all of the more than 5,000 Japanese pirates who had traveled with them were killed, so they became insignificant.

Moreover, given Chief Xu Hai's character, if he wants to wipe out the entire group, even the confidants of Chief Ma Ye will be killed.

Who else can they turn to? !
"Think about it carefully. We have another price, a very, very big price." The trusted Japanese pirate said meaningfully.

"We still have a price, and it's a very big price. Could it be that anyone among us is the illegitimate son of Chief Xu Hai or Chief Wang Zhi or some other big shot?! Apart from this, I really can't think of what other big price we can offer." The Japanese pirate was confused and really couldn't think of what other big price they could offer.

"Chief Ma Ye is the biggest bargaining chip in our hands." The trusted Japanese pirate leaned over and whispered in the ear of that Japanese pirate.

"What? Ma." The Japanese pirate was startled.

"Hush!" The trusted Japanese pirate put his finger to his lips and made a gesture to silence. (End of this chapter)
