When Ze Long shouted these words in the face of the storm and the turbulent sea, the storm that raged for a night instantly stopped.
The blazing sun rose from the horizon, rays of sunlight shining on the deck, coincidentally illuminating Ze Long's figure.
When the soldiers on the warship saw this scene, tears streamed down their faces.
"Lieutenant Colonel Darius, you can rest in peace!”
Tiano looked at Ze Long's back and sighed.
Not only did the weather improve, but even the battered warship seemed to be reborn.
The warship sailed through the wind and waves. The head of the ship that had been repaired after being damaged pierced through the blue waves and opened up a waterway to advance courageously. The waves that were stirred up swept over the ship's side with silver-white waves. Then, they merged into surging waves at the rear of the ship, leaving behind a flashing belt of water. The belt of water expanded to the distant sea surface, emitting thousands of ripples.
“10123，10124………”
On the deck of the warship, a 10-year-old boy was desperately crushing his body, and bean-sized sweat dripped onto the deck.
All the sailors on the warships were convinced by Ze Long's tough training. They would also train their bodies as hard as they could when they had time.
Tiano saw this scene and smiled. Ever since Lieutenant Colonel Darius died, the navy soldiers on this warship had been lifeless and abandoned their training. Tiano had thought of many ways, but none of them worked.
Now that he saw them walk out of the dark haze and face a new life, he was also very happy.
The warship sped toward Marlin Frodo. Apart from the necessary supplies that were docked on the islands along the way, they were on the move for the rest of the time. Tiano wanted Ze Long to make it to the current enrollment of the naval academy. Otherwise, they would have to wait for the next one.
The journey was rather smooth. Other than the pirate Roger, there were almost no other pirate groups that dared to stop the naval warships, so it was still very easy to sail in this sea area.
They were very close to Marlin Frodo, and the warship needed to resupply for the last time. When the sky was about to turn dark, it stopped at a small town called Sarotia Island in the East Sea. It was a good place to resupply and rest.
After the warship docked at the dock, it discovered that the island was very beautiful. The sea was sparkling, and the waves were layered on the soft sand. The white waves rose and fell. It was simply a holiday resort.
Ze Long and Tiano got off the boat and came to the dock. The breeze blew on Ze Long's face, causing his clothes to flutter.
Ze Long looked up at the dock. The dock was very clean, with lush green grass and a few rows of straight poplar trees.
However, it was strange that there was no one at the dock. At this late hour, there should be many fishing boats coming ashore. The dock should be very lively, but why was it so quiet today?
Ze Long and Tiano walked towards the town in the center of the island with questions. Soon, they arrived at the entrance of a town.
The town had a door, a tall arched door. There was a sign hanging on the door that read " Sarotia Town ".
Through the arched door, one could see a wide street with neat houses on both sides.
However, for some reason, they did not see any residents. The two of them walked into the town and were at a loss about what to do.
"Is anyone there? I'm Major Tiano of the Navy. I'm here to purchase supplies. Can anyone come out?”
"Rumble! Rumble!" There was a commotion in a big house.
Zerondiano wanted to go over and check it out, but suddenly, the door of a house close to them opened.
A burly man walked out from inside, but he was smiling and looked very enthusiastic.
"Welcome to Sarotia Town, Mr. Navy. I'm the mayor of this town. I'll get someone to arrange supplies for you.”
"Okay, thank you. Please arrange it as soon as possible. We're in a hurry. Also, where did the residents of your town go?”
Hearing Major Tiano's question, the village chief was obviously stunned for a moment. He only answered after a few seconds.
"Our town believes in a religion. Every month, we will gather together for a few days to pray and meditate to communicate with God. Today happened to be the day of the gathering, and they all went to the sacred land at the back of the mountain.”
After listening to the village chief's introduction, Tiano asked worriedly,""Then how do we buy supplies? The residents of the town are not at home."
"It's fine, Sir Navy. Take whatever you like. It's free. Your navy has worked hard to protect us. This thing isn't worth much.”The village chief said obsequiously.
Ze Long had never experienced the navy buying supplies. Although he felt that the village chief's attitude was strange, he couldn't say anything.
After the village chief left and arranged for a few of his men to carry the supplies, he pulled Tiano and asked,""Don't you pay for the supplies?”
"Brat, even if we have a good relationship, you can't insult our navy. Our supplies are all specially funded by the military.”Tiano's temper was also getting worse. This was an insult to the navy's honor.
"That's strange. Why doesn't this village chief have any intention of collecting money at all?”Ze Long asked.
"I'm not sure about that, but don't worry. After the loading, I won't give you a penny less. I won't tarnish Lieutenant Colonel Darius's name.”Tiano said confidently.
This made Ze Long feel even more puzzled. He began to carefully observe every move around him.
Because Ze Long was still a child in the eyes of the village chief and his subordinates, they didn't pay much attention to him.
Ze Long ran to the windows of several residents 'houses and looked inside. He saw that there were signs of fighting or rummaging in the residents' houses. This was even stranger. Why would they mess up their houses when they were attending a party?
While the village chief and the others weren't paying attention, Ze Long ran back to Tiano and told him what he had discovered. Tiano reacted quickly and gave Ze Long a look.
"Chief Tiano, I want to go for a walk. I'm hungry!”Ze Long said to Tiano in a childish tone.
"Okay, I'll bring you to find something to eat." After saying that, he pulled Ze Long to the center of the town's street.
"Hey, hey…"
" Sir, you can't run around. If someone runs around during our gathering, it's disrespectful to the gods and will attract pirates for the village. I beg you, don't run around.”
The village chief nervously came over and stopped the two of them. The atmosphere became very tense!
