Chapter 827 - Revenge Is Near!
Marlo looked at the group of people before him and sighed.
Why was their luck so bad?
The thing that troubled him the most is that he just had to run into Mitchen again.
Dammit!
If he had known, he would’ve stayed on the previous path rather than branching off towards this direction.
He figured that the earlier path might have other dangerous animals around, so he chose another route towards the hideout.
Of course during their journey, they had indeed wasted time bypassing mother nature which slowed them down considerably.
One should know that the island itself was enormous.
And the closest route after leaving the base to the hideout would take them 1 hour and 35~45 minutes if they weren’t stopped here and there by mother nature.
It was deep, deep, profound within the forest.
So it wasn’t something that could be reached in a matter of minutes.
Marlo and Ratcliffe smiled bitterly when looking at the enemies before them.
Well, the good thing was that the enemy, particularly Mitchen, might not know that they were the ones he was looking for.
They now had a completely different outfit, and their faces and hair were covered with scarves as well.
So maybe they could still escape this unnoticed.
.
The pirates were utterly shocked and anxious when they saw the enemy step out of the shadows in all directions.
F***!
Mitchen looked at the group coldly while scrutinizing them sternly.
And soon, his eyes lit up when he saw Marlo and Ratcliffe who were in different outfits.
Even without seeing one’s entire face, there were bits of clues here and there that could still aid them in identifying their target.
Mitchen, who personally saw their target face to face, had noticed several major vital points.
Firstly, the way Marlo ran, his body size, height and his eyes made Mitchen get suspicious.
Of course, in the group, Mitchen had five suspects that could be Marlo and three suspects that could be Ratcliffe.
All eight suspects had scarves around their faces and heads, which wasn’t an uncommon or suspicious thing to do in the forest since it can prevent bugs from biting your face and whatnot.
Plus, some pirates saw it as a fashion sense, so they wrapped themselves up, only revealing their eyes.
Earlier on when they were still hiding in the shadows, Mitchen quickly identified his suspects amongst the group of 35 and selected 7 Marines and soldiers to take on 7 of the suspects; of course he chose to take care of the last one amongst them.
But as fate would have it, the person he pinpointed was actually Marlo.
.
With the plan fixed, Mitchen and the other 7 focused on their prey while the rest of the soldiers and marines concentrated on the remaining 28 pirates.
Of course, this wasn’t the first group that Mitchen and his team had caught off guard.
They identified possible suspects and attacked the suspects with combat, while the other pirates were asked to either surrender or get shot.
As for how they would get transported out of the forest after getting shot, well, there were already other teams that took care of that.
So they wouldn’t have to walk for hours just to get to the base, because if they did, some might die from excessive bleeding or injection.
To put it simply, there were soldiers and marines assigned for transforming the prisoners.
And all this was made simple with the help of the pirates themselves.
The pirates did a great job creating several 2 narrow-laned roads, which were probably used when transporting their treasures, hunting yields and whatnot.
Of course, they wouldn’t be so stupid to put their secret hideouts close to these roads.
One could say that it was a great way to misdirect many who wanted to steal their treasures.
They would use the roads to transport their treasures to some degree.
And after that, they would hand-carry them treasure through all sorts of terrains and oaths before getting to their hideouts.
The roads were marvellous and very essential every time they went on hunts and whatnot.
.
Anyway, another set of teams from the Sh.i.p.s have already been sent to each base.
That’s right!
The transport ship that came alongside all 8 Navy sh.i.p.s had already released several military trucks and prisoner transport vehicles on all enemy docks.
They drove straight to all bases and were now here for pick-up and drop-off.
More importantly, thanks to the forest roads that the pirates created, the trucks all from into the forest to some degree.
That said, if a team captures enemy pirates, they would first contact the air force teams, which will in turn contact any available prison transport teams within the nearest or closest vehicle accessible roads.
So even if they captured the enemy on a foot trail path, they just had to locate the nearest road from them and the transport team will drive the vehicles at a close enough distance before contacting the team to bring the prisoners towards the vehicle.
From there, the prisoners would get on the ship, get first aid, and those who got shot would also be hastily sent to the medical centers within the sh.i.p.s for treatment.
From there, the rest was history.
.
As for Mitchen, he decided that the soldiers fight all Marlo and Ratcliffe suspects.
Heh!
If they shit them, then how was he supposed to battle Marlo?
There was no way that he would let his resentment go just like that.
He stared at the Marlo suspect before him and boldly advanced.
Marlo, who had actually been targeted by this guy again, was dumbfounded.
Even with his face covered and completely different attire, this guy still chose him out of everyone else?
Did the bastard have eyes that could see through clothes?
What sort of curse did he have on him to warrant so much bad luck all in one night?
Marlo truly felt like everything was a conspiracy at this point.
His mind quickly wondered about how to escape once again.
But how could Mitchen let him go?
Mitchen squinted his eyes coldly.
"Mr. Marlo, do you think that hiding your face will change anything?
I’ll still know that it’s you.
So it’s pointless."
"Indeed, it seems that I can never fool you.
But if I can escape once, then I can escape again."
Listening to his voice and examining his body language, Mitchen’s eyes turned even colder after confirming his identity.
He was just saying it to probe him, but Marlo actually thought that he had identified him and revealed himself.
Good!
He can now take his revenge!
