------------------------------------------------------------
Do you know your sins this time?
As soon as Twain said this, Jim and the others knelt down in unison and called for their officers to spare their lives.
However, this time it was much more neat than the last time, which made Twain wonder if they had rehearsed it many times in advance.
"We were only tempted by the devil, which is why we made such a big mistake. Please give us a chance to atone for our sins. We are all old people who need to be supported at home, children who are crying for food, and our wives are weak and sickly…Please don't sentence us, sir. As long as we don't sentence us, we are willing to pay any fine!”
Jim's tears were about to fall as he spoke.
If Twain had not come into contact with them, he might have believed them.
"Although I sympathize with you, this is a crime of adultery with pirates.”
Twain's expression was still cold, but his tone softened a little.
Jim was a shrewd person, so how could he not notice that hint of relief?! He quickly said," Sir, you're right. We're in cahoots with pirates, but we can't help it. If we don't agree, we'll die…Sir, please have mercy."”
He moved and wanted to pounce on Twain to hold him back, but he remembered the horror of Twain killing dozens of people in an instant and quickly held back.
The others hurriedly bowed again.
Twain saw that the fire was about right, so he said a little awkwardly,""It's understandable, but the death penalty can be avoided, but the crime can't be avoided!”
Jim heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that.
He quickly asked Twain what crime it was.
If he was going to jail or something, he couldn't accept it. After all, he still had other things to bear, and it was related to human lives.
"Actually, it's hard for me to absolve you of your crimes. There's only one way now, and that is for you to join the navy and redeem yourself.”
Twain muttered to himself for a moment before he spoke.
"What is it? You want us to join the navy?"
"Aiya, what should we do? The navy doesn't seem to be paid well. We don't have enough money.”
"Besides, the navy has so many restrictions. It's very inconvenient for us to go back.”
Before Jim could speak, the underlings behind him started chattering. All of them looked very worried.
When Twain heard this, he felt that these people were not as simple as they seemed. There must be something they were hiding from him.
Jim saw a strange light flash in Twain's eyes and knew that Twain was already suspicious. He quickly turned his head and glared at his underlings to make them quiet down before pleading with Twain,"Sir, can we use money to atone for our sins?”
Or did he not want to join the navy?
Twain frowned." Yes, but it's 100 million Berri per person. You have to pay a total of 2.2 billion Berri.”
"So many? Can you make an exception? Or pay in installments?"
Jim's expression changed as he continued to plead.
"No!"
Twain refused, but his expression began to soften."However, if you join the navy, I can help you solve any difficulties. You've seen my strength.”
Although Twain said so, Jim still found it difficult to make a decision. He gritted his teeth and considered.
After a while, he made a decision."Sir, we can join the branch, but…"
Only then did he reveal his difficulties.
"I see!"
Twain was enlightened after hearing it.
No wonder he was familiar with Housha Town. It was a town next to Kekeyaxi Village.
Jim and the others came from Housha Town. Housha Town was a wealthy town like Luo Town. The people living there were happy and peaceful, living a comfortable life.
However, a few years ago, a group of ferocious murlocs suddenly arrived. They ruled Housha Town through brutal means and forced all the townspeople to pay 100,000 yuan for their lives every month. The adults paid 100,000 yuan and the children paid 50,000 yuan.
Jim and the others had no choice but to work hard to earn money for the sake of their wives, the elderly, and the children.
Over the years, in order to make money, they had done all kinds of hard work, but they still could not make ends meet. In the end, they had no choice but to take the risk and become pirates. Who knew that the first time they cooperated with the Black Cat Pirates, they would be wiped out by Twain.
"Why didn't you escape and let them exploit you for a long time?”
Twain narrowed his eyes.
" It's no use. They're using a joint punishment system. If one of us escapes, the entire town and village will be in trouble. There was once a village that was massacred because someone escaped…"
" Sir, I'm not afraid to tell you that during those days, no matter how much we tried to contact the 16th branch, no navy came to our rescue. Even if there were foreign navies who received the news and offered help, they were all destroyed by the evil dragon and the others. Therefore, we don't have a good impression of the navy..."
Jim said through gritted teeth.
"I understand. If you agree to join our branch, I can help you destroy the Evil Dragon Pirates! As a condition for you to join the 19th branch, how about it?”
Twain said lightly, causing Jim and the others to stand up with a whoosh. They were all excited.
