A group of sailors found themselves facing dozens of menacing gun barrels, and their arrogance instantly diminished.
The cutlery they had intended to use against the crown prince was dropped to the ground. Everyone could only stare fearfully at each other, afraid that the terrifying firearms might accidentally discharge.
“Have you all grown tired of living? How dare you intercept the Keller Family’s transport ship.”
The captain of this ship, Willie Rollins, arrived at the scene and immediately mentioned the Keller Family.
The Keller Family had been operating ships in the Highsea region for over twenty years, and it seemed that there were still some who dared to intercept their transport ship.
The Crown Prince was unimpressed, after all, favonovel.com was orchestrating this against the Keller Family.
“Enough with the theatrics. Do you think you have the loudest voice?”
Before the other party could draw their pistol, the crown prince stepped forward and kicked Captain Willie, causing favonovel.com to fall onto the deck.
Willie felt intense pain in his abdomen and couldn’t utter a word. He could only curl up in a fetal position and wall in agony.
The crown prince grew annoyed and squatted down, pulling out the captain’s pistol. He then smashed the butt of the gun into Willie’s mouth, instantly staining his once-white teeth blood red.
“Now, everything is in order. The whole world is calm and composed. If any of you have objections or feel dissatisfied, step forward. I prefer to win people over with virtue!”
The crew members glanced at Willie, who was covered in blood and whimpering, and then at the crown prince’s terrifying smile. They immediately retreated quickly.
Win people over with virtue?
I don’t believe in your nonsense!
After the crown prince finished all of this, favonovel.com clapped his hands in satisfaction.
“Since no one has any objections and everyone is fortunate, let’s discuss compensation… Your transport ship collided with our warship, so we’ll use your ship as collateral for the repair costs.”
After finding a lame excuse, the crown prince waved his hand, and his subordinates immediately took the Keller Family’s men and their transport ship away.
When they arrived at the island prepared by the Zedler Family, there were already over a dozen ships docked, all bearing the same Keller Family emblem.
All of this was the work of the crown prince and his confidant, Fitz.
By the time the Keller Family received the news, it was already evening.
“Master, something bad has happened!”
“What’s the matter? Why are you making such a fuss?” Worman, who was waiting for news from the frontline fighters, furrowed his brow and asked.
There had been no news from the frontline fighters for some time, and favonovel.com was already feeling uneasy. He had even prepared himself mentally for the possible failure of the assassination operation. However, there was still no news, creating a deep sense of restlessness.
“Master, our transport fleet has lost contact.”
“Losing contact Is normal when ships travel in remote areas for a period of time…”
Most remote sea areas had magnetic field issues, and temporary disconnection was common. Worman had long been accustomed to this.
“Master, many of our transport ships have reached the Highsea area according to their routes but then lost contact. So far, more than a dozen transport ships have encountered this situation!”
“What?!” Worman stood up in excitement. “Quickly send someone to investigate. I want to see which force dares to touch my belongings!”
With so many ships encountering issues simultaneously, it was undoubtedly not a natural disaster but a man-made calamity.
As the Keller Family’s numerous search and rescue ships set sail with military preparations, they were immediately intercepted as soon as they left the harbor. The people who intercepted them were none other than Prince Gadel’s forces.
“We are conducting military exercises, please detour!”
The Keller Family, not daring to provoke, had no choice but to comply and detour. However, no matter which direction they sailed, they were successively intercepted by the maritime forces of Prince Gadel.
At this point, the Keller Family’s maritime transport had been completely blocked.
