Mercenary’s War -
Chapter 221 - 221 Two Hundred and Nineteen Consequences
221: Chapter Two Hundred and Nineteen: Consequences 221: Chapter Two Hundred and Nineteen: Consequences Gao Yang and his team certainly couldn’t stay on the transfer ship any longer, but the good news was that there wasn’t just one transfer ship nearby, and the first thing Antoncel did was not to pack up his things but to contact the other transfer ships.
There were three transfer ships near Gao Yang and his team, all close to the main shipping route and not too far from each other.
Antoncel contacted one called the Victory, which was about forty or more nautical miles away from their current transfer ship.
Forty to fifty nautical miles was not considered far at sea, but it was not possible for Gao Yang and his team to swim there, and Curry certainly wouldn’t be so kind as to send a boat to take them away.
Fortunately, the Victory had a helicopter, which could more quickly transfer armed escort personnel to and from merchant ships.
Although Curry’s transfer ship also had a helipad, Curry had not purchased a helicopter, leaving the helipad empty.
Now, this was undoubtedly good news for Gao Yang and his team, as they could take the helicopter sent from the Victory to transfer over.
After Aida was taken to the ship’s infirmary for an examination and it was confirmed there was no life-threatening danger, he began to receive treatment.
Only then could Gao Yang and the others leave the cabin to wait for the helicopter on the rear deck’s helipad.
However, it was necessary to load their guns and prepare the rocket launchers for firing, just in case, even though it was said there was no danger.
Having waited for nearly an hour, the helicopter finally arrived above their heads.
Curry was unwilling to let Gao Yang and his team stay a moment longer, so, despite his reluctance, Curry still pinched his nose, ordered the transfer ship to cooperate, and directed the helicopter to land on the helipad.
Gao Yang and his team boarded the helicopter as quickly as possible, and it took off again shortly after.
It wasn’t until they were far away that Gao Yang finally took a deep breath and said, “Antoncel, I’m really sorry for dragging you into this.”
Antoncel shook his head and said, “Buddy, we’re all in this together, there’s no need to apologize to me.
I’m not a wimp.
If that guy had humiliated you and you hadn’t done anything, that’s when I would have lost respect for you.
There’s nothing to it, we can simply switch to another ship.
Besides, haven’t we already found another ship?
It won’t even affect our plans for tomorrow.”
Gao Yang merely expressed his apologies to Antoncel.
As for the others, there was no need at all, since they were a team united in honor and disgrace.
If one was insulted, they fought back.
Since they fought, they stood side by side; even if someone died, no one would blame another.
If they couldn’t do that, how could they call themselves brothers in life and death?
Bruce, whose expression had been serious throughout, now sighed with relief and said loudly with a smile, “Guys, we are so lucky.
If we had to wait any longer, only God knows if we could leave that easily.
You know, I am really glad that the helicopter arrived so quickly.
If Curry had known what was going to happen to Aida, I think he definitely wouldn’t have let us go so easily.”
Gao Yang asked, puzzled, “How bad can it be for that guy?
Is it just a few broken ribs?
Maybe a concussion?
Could that be enough for Curry to risk a battle with us just to take revenge for that idiot?”
Bruce looked at Gao Yang in surprise and said, “Boss, don’t you realize what you’ve done?
The reason why Aida passed out and couldn’t wake up is that his pain exceeded the human threshold.
You kicked his balls to smithereens.
For the rest of his life, he can either opt for gender reassignment surgery or live as a eunuch.
For a man, I believe he will definitely want to fight to the death with you.”
Gao Yang, astonished, said, “Is it that serious?”
Bruce, with a stern face, said, “Boss, please don’t doubt my professional eye.
Judging from the force and angle of your kick, as well as Aida’s reaction after the injury, he can forget about being a man for the rest of his life.”
After a moment of shock, Gao Yang suddenly burst into joy and high-fived the equally exuberant Cui Bo, then slapped hands with the grinning Li Jinfang and proudly said, “I knew it couldn’t just be a few broken bones with no further consequences.
I even thought I might have gone too easy on him.
But since that idiot has been turned into a eunuch, well, that’s about right.
That breathes out some of the bad air.”
Bruce shrugged and said, “The guy is injured in a sensitive area.
I think the ship’s doctor must have failed to check what’s inside that idiot’s pants, focusing only on the injuries to his head and chest instead.
Otherwise, any decent surgeon would know at a glance how serious it was.”
Antoncel frowned and said, “That serious?
Won’t there be any consequences?
I think Curry will certainly make trouble again.”
Gao Yang smiled at Antoncel and said, “This has nothing to do with you.
As long as he doesn’t bother you, that’s fine.
If he does come for you, just push everything onto me and let him find me.
I want to see how he’ll make trouble for me.”
Antoncel shrugged and said, “I’m not afraid of Curry’s trouble, guys.
Curry’s ship is a rental, moored in international waters, and most importantly, the ship is registered in Panama.
This means that everything that happens on the ship, including serious criminal offenses, has to be handled by the Panamanian government.
So since Curry did not keep us there, if he wants to cause trouble through legal channels in the future, let the Panamanian government find me.
I’m just worried about you guys.
Curry’s men are numerous, so you’ll have to be careful in the future.”
Frey waved his hand and said, “Let them try if they want, as long as they are not afraid to die.”
Gao Yang was not worried about Curry or that black man, Jinfang, causing him trouble later on because it was unlikely that they would ever meet again.
Even if they did, no one would stand up for the black man named Aida.
And if Aida decided to fight alone or rally a few helpers for a battle, Gao Yang welcomed it very much.
Gao Yang and his group joked and laughed all the way, just waiting to get a good night’s sleep after they reached Victory.
They wouldn’t even delay the next day’s work.
Since both Victory and the transfer ship at the other end of the Gulf of Aden had helicopters, Gao Yang and his team could use a helicopter for their future transfers, which would be faster and safer than the small boat transfer, and most importantly, it wouldn’t make them seasick.
So although they had experienced a bit of trouble, there seemed to be nothing to be angry about.
Of course, using a helicopter for their commute would be more expensive, but that was a trivial matter.
As the helicopter landed on the helipad of Victory, Gao Yang and the others disembarked and ran out of the helipad area with their heads down.
Then they saw a serious-looking middle-aged man shouting, “Which one of you is Mr.
Antoncel?”
Antoncel walked up to the middle-aged man with a smile all over his face and said, “I am Antoncel.
May I ask who you are?”
The middle-aged man said gravely, “My name is Veil, and I am in charge of Victory.
I am here to inform you that you must leave Victory as soon as possible.”
The smile on Antoncel’s face froze as he asked in confusion, “Why?
Tell me why?”
Veil replied with a serious expression, “I just received a call from Mr.
Curry.
I have learned what you did on Happy Mary.
We do not allow people like you on my ship.”
Antoncel said with anger, “Then you must not know why all this started.
Buddy, it’s not a good habit to listen to just one side of the story.
My people are not troublemakers and idiots.
Are you sure you understand what happened?”
Veil shrugged his shoulders and said, “Frankly, I’m not interested in the specifics of what happened.
All I need to know is that you used guns and almost caused a fatality.
As for who was the culprit behind the incident, I don’t care.”
Antoncel responded angrily, “If you’re not interested in justice, then why won’t you let us stay?
I think you owe me an explanation, sir.”
Veil sighed and said, “Alright, buddy, just because of one thing: your company is not a member of the Maritime Security Association, while my company and Mr.
Curry’s company are members.
When Curry has sufficient grounds to request all member companies of the association to sever all cooperation with you, you won’t be able to stay on this ship.
Additionally, I should tell you that all security companies controlling the transfer ships have joined the Maritime Security Association.
So, I regret to remind you, buddy, you can’t sign any cooperation agreements with any transfer ship now.”
Antoncel’s expression turned blank as he said, “No, you can’t do this.
You all can’t do this.
This whole thing started because of one damned idiot, why should we be the ones to be punished?”
Veil sighed and said, “Buddy, the idiot you mentioned has been seriously injured.
He will have to say goodbye to his gender as a man.
If we weren’t at sea, on a Panama-registered ship, this matter wouldn’t have settled so easily.”
Gao Yang’s good mood ended immediately, and as he looked at the stunned Antoncel, although he did not regret hitting a despicable scum, he felt very sorry for Antoncel.
Because of his involvement, Antoncel, who was on a promising career path, might now have to say goodbye to the maritime security industry.
Just as Gao Yang was about to say something, Antoncel shook his head at him, then looked at Veil and said, “Buddy, we’re already on Victory.
You can’t just throw us into the sea.
You can ask us to leave, but at least we should be able to leave safely, right?”
Veil nodded and said, “Of course, sir.
The most basic humane treatment.
You cannot stay on Victory for more than 24 hours.
That’s the longest stay I can offer you.”(To be continued.
