Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.
Chapter 918 This is practically the end of the world!
Despite the horrific scene, the Black Shark crew leaned on the railings, laughing and watching as if it were some kind of entertaining show.
Especially when the bodies that were churned up by the engine sank and then surfaced in the bubbling seawater, revealing deep red blood and pieces of flesh belonging to who-knows-whose unfortunate souls, these people became even more excited, constantly shouting for people to increase the engine speed.
If the explosion just now was already a horrific scene, then the sea surface now ravaged by this giant pirate ship is a living hell.
Some of the bandits, unwilling to be killed, desperately shouted to the people on the boat, "Stop! Stop!"
Even if they screamed themselves hoarse in such a chaotic scene, the Black Shark members would only take it as ordinary screams or unwilling cries before death.
Not only did they not pay attention, they even personally finished them off.
Su Zihang steered the ship to the very edge of the explosion zone before slowing down. Chu Xin climbed the mast, aimed at the man laughing wildly on the pirate ship, narrowed her eyes, and pulled the trigger. The man was instantly shot in the head. With another shot, another man's head exploded.
The sudden and inexplicable situation frightened the men so much that they dared not stand on the ship's side anymore. They crouched down and frantically searched around with binoculars for the attacker.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Take cover!"
"Sniper! Be careful!"
"Quickly, get up the watchtower and find the person who launched the sneak attack!"
However, these were only the crises they could see. They were unaware that several shots, though not injuring anyone, had somehow pierced through the iron-clad hull and shattered the main drive shaft hidden beneath the ship.
This colossal vessel, capable of disregarding everything and human life, suddenly lost its propulsion. Although the engine was still roaring, the propeller could no longer turn and came to a complete stop, and the ship gradually lost its forward momentum.
This series of bizarre events left everyone on the pirate ship bewildered, not only having to defend against sudden attacks but also busy trying to find out where the ship's malfunction was.
…………
Chu Xin emptied her pistol and immediately climbed down the mast. Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting were waiting below. Seeing her come down, they hurriedly asked, "Everything you asked for is ready. Are you sure you want to do this?"
That's a lot of lives lost.
"Of course, no one here is truly innocent. I am not so noble as to claim that my actions were to rid the people of harm. I can only say that these people are paying the price for their greed."
There are risks in everything we do; this is just a way of giving them a profound lesson.
Chu Xin spoke firmly, her gaze fixed on the oil drums piled on the deck. With the protective gear removed, the salty sea breeze was filled with the pungent smell of tung oil, which she had already detected from the mast.
So much tung oil, each bottle holding a full two hundred liters. It's one of the goods Su Zihang is trading this time, and it should be enough to trap that oversized pirate ship.
Zhu Gaozai had been observing the scene. Seeing the wind direction change, he immediately signaled to Su Zihang, "Boss, right rudder fifteen!"
Su Zihang immediately steered the ship to change course, and the rest of the crew quickly began pouring tung oil onto the canvas and throwing it out as the ship moved forward.
Tung oil is viscous and not easily dispersed by seawater, allowing flames to burn continuously. The canvas soaked in oil was ignited the moment it touched the open flame on the sea surface. Even if it fell on the broken wreckage of a ship, it would be quickly ignited and burned.
The fireball, enveloped in thick smoke, was slowly pushed toward the pirate ship by the waves, carried by the wind.
And so, taking advantage of the enemy's chaos, their little-known boat circled around, scattering tung oil tarpaulins. Soon, blue-purple flames spread and connected on the sea, like a burning chain, surrounding all the ships and speedboats, including Black Shark's pirate ship.
Moreover, this circle is shrinking little by little.
Since Chu Xin dared to make such a big show of things, she had no intention of being soft-hearted. With good hand-eye coordination, she would immediately fire a shot as soon as she spotted any living people on the sea.
Seeing this, Yang Zheng, Ge Shaoting, and the others all followed suit, maximizing the effectiveness of this scheme of setting fire by taking advantage of the wind.
The shadow of death loomed over the bandits struggling in the sea. Gone was their former ruthless arrogance; they were all crying and begging for their lives.
What Chu Xin and her group did was quickly discovered by the people on the Black Shark pirate ship. After their initial panic subsided, they calmed down and immediately organized their men to fire machine guns at Chu Xin and her group.
Su Zihang deliberately parked his ship further away, so it wouldn't be easily hit. The angry pirates then tried to move the ship's cannons, but unexpectedly, the cannons exploded after being lit, instantly blowing a hole in their proud ship.
Amidst the mournful cries, those who were lucky enough to escape the explosion stared in disbelief at what had happened. They knew that although their two cannons were not used often, maintenance was always required. How could they suddenly explode?
Experiencing this bizarre event again, the pirates were all terrified and broke out in a cold sweat. No one dared to fire the second cannon.
But that wasn't the most terrifying part. As time went on, the fire chain that was originally some distance away from them was now burning up close. During this time, all the surviving ships of the sea people were detonated one by one. The gasoline mixed with the burning tung oil canvas caused the fire to suddenly escalate, instantly creating a wall of fire two or three meters high.
The pirate ship, which was originally fearless, became increasingly hot from the waves of heat. The iron plates covering the hull were no longer something to boast about, but had become an oven that could roast people like meat.
The pirates on the deck screamed and ran around in panic. Some jumped into the sea in a desperate attempt to escape, but as soon as they hit the water, they were forced to sink into the depths of the sea by the scorching waves.
However, there was nowhere to breathe in this vast sea of fire. People either drowned while hiding underwater or surfaced and were burned alive by the tung oil floating in the sea.
"Ahhh, help!"
"Help! It's burning me! Help me!"
The fire burned fiercer and fiercer, distorting the air above the sea. Thick smoke, mixed with embers, danced in the air like black and red snowflakes.
The scene, comparable to the depths of hell, made Su Zihang and the others' feelings towards Chu Xin complicated. After this incident, she might become the most feared figure in the Southeast Asian seas.
Thinking of his past rude remarks, Zhu Gaozi instinctively took another step back, even though Su Zihang and Hu Kan were already between him and Chu Xin, and pulled Fei Ji over to switch places with him.
Fatty was pulled and staggered. He glanced back and understood why Bamboo Pole was acting this way. Although he was a little scared, he still stood in front of Bamboo Pole.
Forget it, even though it's a bit self-deceptive, if Bamboo Pole feels at ease, then let's change it.
But he wasn't the only one who was truly shocked and filled with fear.
However, Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting, having spent a long time with Chu Xin, knew her true nature. What they feared now was not her methods, but rather their deep respect for absolute power and methods.
So after initially feeling uneasy, I quickly accepted everything before me.
So what if she killed hundreds of people in one fell swoop? What's the big deal? Chu Xin also has those incredible supernatural abilities. They've all witnessed those methods that are beyond human comprehension. The current situation just doesn't seem unreasonable when applied to Chu Xin.
Besides, they already knew that Chu Xin was indeed ruthless and merciless by nature.
After muttering to themselves, Ge Shaoting and Yang Zheng exchanged a glance and then each took Su Zihang and Hu Kan aside to say something that sounded like a warning but was also like a reassurance.
Chu Xin noticed something, glanced back once, and then ignored it.
She knew what Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting were worried about, but she didn't care. Since she dared to do it, she wouldn't be afraid of other people's opinions.
Besides, as long as Su Zihang and she trust each other, it doesn't really matter whether they are afraid of her or not. As for Hu Kan, Zhu Gaozi, and Fei Ji, the fact that they are afraid of her from the bottom of their hearts should be considered a good thing.
This fear makes them hesitant to betray.
Not long after Su Zihang and Hu Kancai were forcibly dragged over for "psychological counseling," they suddenly felt a slight coolness in the somewhat scorching air.
They looked up and saw that dark clouds had gathered in the sky, and the wind on the sea was getting stronger and stronger, indicating that a storm was about to break.
The change in wind direction caused the smoke and embers floating above the fire to rush towards them, causing everyone to cough incessantly.
Su Zihang made a decisive move and returned to the bridge to steer the boat away.
Ge Shaoting frowned and said worriedly, "What should we do? Not all of them have been burned to death yet. It looks like it's going to rain. What if the fire is extinguished? Wouldn't some people manage to escape?"
The sea breeze tousled Chu Xin's hair, which she casually brushed aside. As she watched the dark clouds press lower and lower, with flashes of lightning visible in between, she subtly curled her lips into a smile.
"It's alright. Who knows if the sudden change in weather will be a blessing or a curse for those who are wicked? At worst, we won't go far. We'll just wait in a safe area and finish off any fish that slip through our net."
Upon hearing this, Ge Shaoting's face twitched. "Are you afraid you're not famous enough?"
Chu Xin smiled and did not deny it.
Just a few minutes later, the wind and waves grew stronger and stronger, and the boat rocked so violently that it was almost impossible to stand. Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting could barely keep their balance by supporting each other, while Hu Kan and Zhu Gaozai, knowing their place, had already taken refuge in the cabin.
Only Chu Xin remained standing firmly on the deck.
Yang Zheng and Ge Shaoting called to her, "Let's go inside and hide first. The waves are getting bigger and bigger, it's very dangerous."
Chu Xin did not move, but only looked up at the sky.
Before the two men could offer any further advice, a deafening "crack" suddenly came from the sky, so loud that even the two grown men couldn't help but shrink back.
"Holy crap, that's terrifying! My ears are practically numb from the shock." Ge Shaoting couldn't help but curse. He instinctively looked up and was horrified to see a massive bolt of lightning, seemingly capable of tearing the sky apart, striking straight down onto the sea, which was still engulfed in flames.
The raging flames and giant waves, combined with the lightning, created a scene that shocked not only Ge Shaoting, but also Su Zihang and his companions, who were often out at sea braving wind and rain.
They all stared in disbelief at the scene before them, muttering to themselves, "This is practically the end of the world!"
