At noon in the lunar calendar.
Having just finished his lunch in the canteen, Yun Dun was prepared to walk around the training ground to digest his food before returning to his room to take a nap. After he woke up, he would start his afternoon's training. It was a pleasant experience.
"Second Lieutenant Yun Dun, Colonel Gillette is looking for you.”Just as Yun Dun was still thinking about how to spend the day, Colonel Gillette's personal lieutenant, Ze Zetai, walked over and said to Yun Dun.
"Yes, yes, thank you. I'll go over now.”
"It's okay. I'm going to have lunch first. You can go by yourself.”In response to Yun Dun's thanks, Zezetai waved his hand, indicating that it was his duty. Then, he walked towards the canteen. He had not eaten lunch yet.
Looking at Ze Zetai who was walking towards the canteen, Yun Dun shouted,""You go eat first. Bye."
"Colonel, you were looking for me?"
Yun Dun came to the door of Colonel Gillette's office, knocked on the door a few times, and asked.
"Come in." Colonel Gillette, who was eating in his office, put down his chopsticks when he heard Yun Dun. He looked up at Yun Dun and said," I called you here to tell you a piece of news.”
"What news?" Yun Dun stood in front of Gillette's desk and asked curiously.
Colonel Gillette placed his right hand on the table and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table. He said unhurriedly,"It's like this. Our intelligence personnel told me that they found traces of the Ghost Pirates 'boatswain, Bob.”
"Oh? Was that so? Where is he?" Yun Dun asked anxiously. As for Bob, who was hiding in the dark and had always wanted to kill him, it was obvious that Yun Dun wanted to get rid of him as soon as possible.
It was obvious that Colonel Gillette understood Yun Dun's thoughts."According to our intelligence, Bob is currently hiding on Sepal Island. However, the tricky thing is that since the island is the territory of the Country of Flowers, our navy isn't stationed there. I can't give you Bob's exact location.”
"This is not a problem." Yun Dun waved his hand casually." Does the colonel mean that I should solve this problem myself?”
"Originally, I could have sent a warship to send you to the vicinity of Sepal Island, and then you could have landed on the island yourself.”Ji Lie paused for a moment," But now, the Country of Flowers and the Country of Waves are at war. The island is in the waters where the two countries are at war. If our navy rashly enters the waters, it will easily cause panic between the two countries. Because both countries are allies of the World Government, our navy has no right to intervene in the war between their countries unless one of them requests the World Government to mediate. Therefore, I can't send a warship to escort you to the island.”
"It means that I have to find a way to land on Sepal Island and then get rid of Bob before coming back.”Yun Dun rubbed his nose and looked at Colonel Gillette, voicing his guess.
Looking at Yun Dun, Colonel Gillette nodded.""Yes, that's right. That's what I wanted to say. Moreover, due to the war between the two countries, there were various pirate groups on the sea route to the sea area. "So, what I mean is, why don't you not go this time? Wait until the war between the two countries stops, or when we find Bob somewhere else in the future, you can deal with him.”
Yun Dun raised his head and looked at Colonel Gillette. He did not hide his thoughts and said,""Colonel Gillette, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I feel that if we can't get rid of this hidden threat this time, it'll be even more troublesome to find him the next time we lose track of him. So, what I mean is, I'll solve this problem myself.”
"I knew you would say that.”Gillette stared at Yun Dun and suddenly smiled." Although I can't send a warship to send you there, I can arrange a small boat for you to drive there yourself.”
"Thank you, Colonel!" Yun Dun smiled happily. He thought that if he couldn't send a warship, he would have to find a ship to go to Sepal Island. Now that Colonel Gillette was willing to provide him with a ship, things would be much simpler.
"Go to the port and ask Lieutenant Gu Teng for a patrol boat.”Colonel Gillette waved his hand.
"Alright, Colonel. I'll rush back as soon as possible so that I won't delay my training.”Yun Dun looked at Colonel Gillette confidently.
Looking at the confident Yun Dun, Colonel Gillette seemed to see himself when he was the same age. He stood up, walked to Yun Dun's side, and patted him on the shoulder."Pay attention to your safety. If you really can't do it, come back first. As long as one was alive, there was nothing that could not be avenged.”
"I understand, Colonel!" Looking at the concern in Gillette's eyes, Yun Dun felt a warmth in his heart. He knocked his heels together and gave a standard navy salute to Colonel Gillette.
Looking at Yun Dun, Colonel Gillette touched the scar on his face. It was the scar left behind when he first went out to sea. Returning to his seat, Colonel Gillette picked up his chopsticks and prepared to eat. He put them down again and looked out of the window in a daze.
"In the end, you have to experience hardships to grow! Little brat. However, just in case, I still have to go out myself.”
After leaving Colonel Gillette's office, Yun Dun first returned to his room to pack up some things that he thought he needed to bring along for the voyage. Then, he told Hanke that he needed to go out for a while. He didn't tell Hanke the truth because he knew that Hanke would definitely go out to sea with him if he knew the truth. He couldn't let his friend be in danger because of him.
After everything was done, Yun Dun went to the navy dock and saw that Lieutenant Gu Teng was already waiting for him at the dock. It seemed that he knew about his arrival in advance. Needless to say, Yun Dun knew that this was arranged by Colonel Gillette.
After greeting Yun Dun, First Lieutenant Gu Teng brought him to a patrol boat without the navy logo. He pointed at the patrol boat and said to Yun Dun,""This is a navy standard patrol boat. I've already removed all the navy symbols on it and painted it with a new layer of protective paint. From its appearance, basically no one will associate it with a navy ship.”
Looking at the patrol boat in front of him that had changed greatly, Yun Dun scratched his head and said in embarrassment,""Thank you for your hard work, Lieutenant Gu Teng."
"This is a small matter." First Lieutenant Gu Teng paused for a moment and continued," This ship is mainly driven by the wind. Of course, there is also an impact-driven device on the ship that can help you escape from danger at a relatively fast speed when you encounter danger. However, the duration is very short, so you need to use it carefully. Of course, I personally don't want you to use this device.”
"Understood!" Yun Dun nodded, indicating that he understood.
"I've also prepared water and food for you. Also, this is the money Colonel Gillette asked me to give you.”Colonel Guteng took out a stack of Bailey and placed it in Yundun's hand." Of course, you'll have to prepare your own water and food for the return trip. Alright, that's all I have to say. I hope everything goes smoothly for you.”
"Thank you!" Yun Dun took Bailey from Lieutenant Gu Teng's hands and saluted solemnly.
Seeing that Yun Dun was slowly steering the patrol boat away from the dock, First Lieutenant Gu Teng turned around and left the dock.
"All the best, little brat!"
