After crossing the Strait of Malacca, there are only two thousand nautical miles left from Holy Cross Island.

That afternoon, Chen Yi received a call from Tang Heting again, and the old man's tone was still very strict: "Boy, where have you driven a cruise ship?"

"I just passed through Malacca last night and am now driving in the waters near Sri Lanka!" Chen Yi looked at the map in the navigation system and reported to Tang Heting.

"How long will it take to arrive at Holy Cross Island?" Tang Heting asked coldly.

"At present, my luxury cruise ship is driving at full speed. If nothing unexpected happens, it will definitely be there within two days." Chen Yi said.

"Can you kid do it? If you can't do it, don't show off. I quickly contact the naval formation escorted by the Gulf of Aden and ask them for help from the front line and rescue the hostages by force!" Tang Heting said in a deep voice.

"As the original plan, I'll go to the island to see it first! This matter was caused by me, so I should come forward to solve it!" Chen Yi said firmly.

"Oh, I don't know what you are doing, so I have to die by myself." Tang Heting said helplessly.

"Grandpa, this is called putting one's life to death. I'm driving the boat. Please contact me if you have something to do!" Chen Yi hung up the phone.

At this moment, Wei Tie walked into the cab from outside with a panic expression and said to Chen Yi: "Dong Chen, we just saw a motorboat driving over from a place not more than one nautical mile away from us. It felt suspicious!"

"How is it suspicious?" Chen Yi's heart moved and he said to himself: "The accident is coming!"

"The people on those motorboats were holding telescopes and kept looking at our cruise ship. After walking around three times, they left. Are they pirates?" Wei Tie said in surprise, "It's very likely that I'm here to step on the plate!" Chen Yi pondered.

"What should we do?" Wei Tie asked in a deep voice.

"You will take the security team to the deck and observe the surrounding movements in eight directions. Once a suspicious ship approaches, tell me immediately!" Chen Yi said seriously.

"Okay." Wei Tie's nerves became very nervous, and he quickly left the cab and directed his subordinates to move.

Chen Yi continued to sit in the cab, looking at the vast sea outside the windshield in front, and said to himself: "Xuejing, wait, I will definitely come to save you from danger! No matter who stops me today, it will be difficult for me to see each other!"

In the waters near Somalia, there is an island covering an area of ​​ten square kilometers. The area is only a few different from the island of Holy Cross. Several patrol boats and motorboats are parked on the dock.

This island is called Black Shark Island, and it is named after the frequent occurrence of black sharks around it.

On Black Shark Island, there is also a modern building complex, with more than 100 people living on the island, wearing sea-blue camouflage uniforms. When outsiders saw it, they thought it was a military base.

In fact, this is a veritable pirate base!

In the Somalia waters, a powerful pirate gang has emerged in recent years. The name "Blue Coast Guard" has often looted some merchant ships, with a large range of activities, not only in the Gulf of Aden, but also in the nearby Arabian Sea.

The leader was named Battoli, a Somalian. The pirates under the command of the guards were divided into ten small teams.

In the largest house in the Pirate Base, a state-of-the-art communication and command platform is installed, which can be contacted at any time by various teams responsible for reconnaissance work in the Indian Ocean.

At this time, Bartoli was in the command center, using a walkie-talkie to call each team through wireless signals and command remotely.

"Captain, I just discovered a large ship with the flag of China, driving at high speed in the Arabian Sea." Bartoly's deputy, deputy captain of the "Blue Coast Guard", Augustin took two teams out for investigation this morning and just sent back the latest information.

"How many people are there on the boat?" Bartoly's eyes lit up when he heard this. He hadn't robbed the cruise ship for a long time. This time he was going to do a big fat sheep and spend a few days.

"There are more than a dozen security guards on patrol, and I don't know how many people there are." Augustine said.

"Continue to investigate. If you are traveling, you will definitely be rich. We can make a lot of money by robbing them. If you are transporting goods, it is best to detect what goods they are transporting and whether they are worth it." Bartoly said seriously.

"Okay, I know." Augustine replied.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work. After making this ticket, I will definitely reward you." Bartoly laughed dryly. He really hoped that it was a cruise ship that could not only rob money, but also kidnap hostages for huge ransom.

At dusk, the "Tianyi" continued to drive at full speed. The sea water in the distance, under the beautiful sunlight, was like fish scales spreading on the water surface, and like naughty children constantly jumping towards the shore.

"Mr. Shen, those motorboats have appeared again." Wei Tie said to Shen Yi in the cab through the walkie-talkie.

"Can you be sure it was the group that appeared in the morning?" Shen Yi asked hurriedly.

"I'm sure one of them has a big beard with a hair-beard that falls from his cheeks, which is very eye-catching." Wei Tie said.

"Oh, these days, I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, but I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it." Shen Yi sighed.

"Mr. Shen, what should we do?" Wei Tie asked cautiously.

"Don't worry, you'll hit me hard when the pirates come, just try my secret weapon." Shen Yi said coldly.

The "Tianyi" continued to drive at full speed on the vast Arabian Sea.

In the evening, Shen Yi summoned all the members of the security team and held an emergency meeting on the deck.

The refreshing and wet sea breeze with the smell of the sea blows on people's hair, cheeks, and every part of their body, as if they were lying in the arms of a gorgeous and plump woman.

"Brothers, pirates usually choose to start at night, so I decided to patrol in two shifts to closely monitor the situation at sea to prevent sudden attacks from pirates." Shen Yi said seriously at everyone.

Meanwhile, in the Pirate Command Center on Black Shark Island, Bartoly was once again connected to Augustine's telephone signal.

"Captain, I saw it clearly. It was a cruise ship with three decks on the upper and lower sides. It seemed that there was still a lot of cargo on the bottom floor, which should be food and fresh water. During the day, I saw that the security guards on the ship might be worried that the food would get damp, so they put the cargo on the deck to dry." Augustine said.

"What have you seen?" Bartoly asked quickly.

"I saw rice, wheat and lots of canned food, dried meat and red wine," Augustine said.

"Okay, start the action immediately. You will take two small teams of people to surround the cruise ship immediately and hijack it to our Black Shark Island!" Bartoly gave the final order.

"I understand, Captain, just wait and count the money!" Augustine said with a big laugh.

The night is quiet, the sea breeze is mixed with a slight smell of the sea, and a bright moon hangs on the sky like a large shining jade plate.

Chen Yi stood on the deck, holding a telescope, carefully observing the surroundings. The searchlights on the top of the cruise ship kept emitting dazzling light, sweeping into everything around him.

"Dong Chen, there is something ahead!" a security guard exclaimed.

Chen Yi quickly walked to him, took the telescope and looked closely, and saw a large patrol boat sailing towards the "Tianyi", which was less than two nautical miles away.

"Dong Shen, there are suspicious ships over there!" another security guard shouted.

Chen Yi looked in the direction where he was, and there were two armed speedboats equipped with heavy machine guns with howitzers.

"Dong Chen, there are five motorboats behind, and the people above us are holding ak4 and we are surrounded!" Wei Tie walked up and said with a serious expression.

"Don't panic, call them in English and see if they can understand." Chen Yi said.

"Okay, I'll do it!" Wei Tie played black boxing when he was young. Because of his professional needs, he learned English. Although he was not very proficient, his pronunciation was quite accurate.

He picked up the megaphone and before he could speak, the large patrol boat opposite him was the first to shout, speaking in English, with the general content: "We are the Iranian Coast Guard conducting routine maritime inspections. Please break down quickly for inspection, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

"Dong Chen, they said it was from the Iranian Coast Guard! What should I do?" Wei Tie asked.

"The Iranian Coast Guard cannot be active in this area. This group of people must be pirates. I heard that some pirates like to pretend to be the Coast Guard to hijack ships. We must not be fooled by them." Chen Yi said seriously: "Tell them that we are legal cruise ships with international navigation qualifications. We do not accept your routine inspections. Leave quickly, otherwise we will bear the consequences!"

"Okay." Wei Tie nodded, and according to Chen Yi's original words, he shouted at the patrol boat that had shortened the distance to only one nautical mile with a loudspeaker.

"What did they say?" Augustine, who was standing on a patrol boat directing the hijacking operation, asked at a small team leader wearing a blue camouflage uniform next to him.

"If we don't leave immediately, we will bear the consequences." The team leader smiled disdainfully.

"Haha! What a bunch of lunatics!" Augustine seemed to hear the most ridiculous joke in the world. An ordinary cruise ship dared to challenge the fully armed "Coast Guard"? It's so overestimated!

"What should we do?" asked the pirate captain.

"You take your team, drive a motorboat, cooperate with the armed speedboat in front, and attack the cruise ship from the side, striving to board the ship before dawn!" Augustine said seriously.

"Okay, obey the order." The pirate captain led his teammates to drive a motorboat off the large patrol boat and rushed straight to the "Tianyi".

"Dong Shen, there are three armed speedboats in front and ten motorboats on the side. They rushed towards our ship." Wei Tie said.

"Don't worry, wait until they reach the range of our electromagnetic laser gun, and fire me! Hit the engines of these ships and ask them to sink into the sea to feed the fish!" Chen Yi's eyes flashed with sharp light, and he said hatefully, gritting his teeth. (To be continued)
