From the side, Oscar stopped Roy with a frown. Then, favonovel.com plastered on a smile and said, “In that case, sorry for bothering you.”
The two of them exited the villa and headed to the car. About 20 black Jeeps were parked behind them, all filled with ninjas.
“Our intel definitely can’t be wrong. I bet Duncan hid Garten! That damn old geezer!” Roy cursed angrily as soon as favonovel.com got into the car.
At that moment, the Violet Ninja in the passenger seat turned his head and reported, “Clan heads, I just received word that two suspicious vehicles have just exited the prince’s back door and are currently driving down the seaside road toward Port Hero.”
“It must be Isaac! Hurry, let’s follow them!” Oscar yelled loudly.
The car immediately turned around, leading the hundred or so ninjas toward Port Hero.

Meanwhile, Isaac and the others had arrived at the dock of Port Hero as soon as they could. The driver was a middle-aged man in a green uniform.
He stopped the car at the dock Turning his head, favonovel.com said to Isaac, “Mr. Garten, I can set up a customs office to help you ward them off for a while. However, it’ll take over three hours to get to international waters by boat. I wish you a safe journey…”
“Please send my thanks to Prince Duncan!” Isaac nodded, alighting from the car.
The five of them swiftly boarded the speedboat.
As soon as favonovel.com turned on the navigation, favonovel.com set the craft into action, speeding toward the boundless ocean.
The uniformed man took out his phone and dialed a number. He said in a deep voice, “James, the mission has been completed. They have gotten on the speedboat and left…”
“The Mortodors and Exeters have already begun pursuing them. Do you think they can make it out of here?” James asked through the phone.
The uniformed man turned to glance at the speedboat Isaac was on and answered mildly, “No…”
“Oh, well… We already did as my uncle instructed. The rest is up to them…” James sighed and hung up.
The speedboat flew across the sea, kicking up waves on both sides.
Isaac stood and gazed toward the horizon, braving the sea breeze. In front of him, favonovel.com could see a few small dark spots as well as some boats in the vicinity.
“There’s only one more hour till sundown. Lightning, we must go at full speed,” Isaac said gravely, raising his face to the sky.
The sky was darkening, and night was beginning to fall.
A loud noise thundered through the sky behind them.
Isaac’s heart clenched. He turned around and spotted two helicopters, their huge spotlights already switched on as they flew toward them at lightning speed.
Lightning heard them too. He immediately turned off all the lights on the speedboat, and the hull of the boat blended in with the darkness of the ocean surface.
Lupinus retrieved a pair of night vision goggles from his toolbox, turning around to look behind.
A few red dots suddenly appeared in his dim vision. Browning, favonovel.com said to Isaac, “Drakon, there are speedboats chasing us from behind. There are at least 20 of them.”
Isaac got up and took two steps forward. He brought out a map from Lightning’s pocket, switched on his flashlight, and peered at it closely.
He immediately pointed toward his right, in the three o’clock direction, and said urgently, “Head that way. There’s a deserted island there. Let’s get on it as soon as possible.”
Isaac was worried that the helicopters would have machine guns on them. If they indeed did, their speedboat would become a live target as soon as they were discovered. They would die here on this vast ocean.
Lightning swerved the boat toward the right and began to charge toward the dark, deserted island at maximum speed.
Isaac’s speedboat was only less than ten nautical kilometers away from the deserted island when one of the helicopters spotted them. Its large spotlight bore down on them, instantly revealing Isaac and the others.
Ratatatat!
Gunfire suddenly started coming from the bottom of the helicopter.
Hanging down there was a machine gun, its bullets whistling as they shot toward Isaac’s speedboat.
