Tycoon!

"What do I get if I help you?" asked Yang Lan

"This..." Jin was silence for a second and said, "If we can save my sister I'll be in your debt. No, I'm willing to be your lackey. If you tell me to go east, I'll definitely not go west. Please brother Yang." and he bowed.

The pirates seeing their captain bowing to Yang Lan, also gave a deep bow.

Yang Lan seeing this scene, left him speechless. The reason he came to their base was to ask a few questions and didn't want to get associated with them but now he was in an awkward situation.

Song Lan felt sad for Jin and said, "Yang Lan why not help them?"

"Xiao Lan let's do it. They should be easy to deal with." Xu Bai also tried to convince him.

Yang Lan was helpless and had no other choice than agree, "Ok I'll help you. But let me ask a question first. Why do you trust me so much?"

"My instinct told me you were trustworthy." he said firmly.

"Since you trust me that much, then I'll make sure to save your sister."

"Thank you brother Yang." He bowed again

"Save your thanks for when we have saved her."

--------------------------

The sun already set and it was dark at the sea. At the horizon could seen 5 lights approaching the island.

"Brother Yang they have arrived. They are approximately 1 mile away from shore." Jin said.

"Let's go take a look." Yang Lan said and went outside.

The sea was so dark and they could only see 5 spot lights with their b.a.r.e eyes but with night vision binoculars, they could clearly see the enemy boats.

The one at the centre was a boat as big as their corvettes while at each flanks was two smaller sized boats.

"Boss Yang their boats are just modified yachts that they stole. They are equipped with light machine guns and rocket launchers. If they were to fire it against our corvettes, they'd just leave a scratch." explained the second-in-command of Jin's crew named Hanzo. "This pirate group are known the be bloodthirsty. In every raid they do, there's always a bloodbath."

"If they only have these firearms, it should be easy to wipe them out right?" asked Xu Bai.

"The Central Government already set rewards for their eradication but they are quite sliperry. Every time we went to their location, they vanish. And now we know how they knew our movements. It was that d*mned Serizawa fault." said Hanzo angrily.

"There's still two hours before the designated time. We should start now the operation and rescue your sister as soon as possible." said Yang Lan.

-----------------

At the central boat, 3 shadows managed to aboard it unnoticed.

They were Xu Bai armed with nothing else other than his fist, Jin with a blade and finally Yang Lan who had a spoon in his hand.

They went inside and started looking for Jin's sister whose name was Chiaki.

As they were going at passages inside, they'd encounter enemies from time to time. But everytime, they would be eliminated silently with a punch from Xu Bai or a spoon-throw from Yang Lan. With this two monsters, Jin only had to watch.

(AN: So you might think, 'why don't they capture one of them and ask where they retain Chiaki?' Well... without Shao Jin who is the brain of the group, this is the best they could do.)

"How big can this boat be? That guy is the 7th we have eliminated." Xu Bai pointed at a pirate lying on the floor. "If we continue eliminating them, they notice that something is amiss."

"Let's go that way. My instinct is telling me to go there." said Jin.

The three of them went to that direction and arrived at a room. As they opened it, they could see a woman tied tightly on a chair with a blindfold in her eyes.

Yang Lan proceeded to remove her blindfold and as he was nearing, she spoke.

"Who's there?" she said while moving her head left and right trying to locate Yang Lan. "I know you're not from the Hawk pirates."

When Yang Lan removed her blindfold, he finally saw her complete face. She was an absolute beauty not inferior to Song Lan. (AN: I'm really not good at describing a person so just search for a beautiful japanese woman and think of it as Chiaki.)

"How did you know I was not a Hawk pirate?" asked Yang Lan.

"You smell different from those sc.u.ms." From her tone he could tell she was wary of him.

"No need to be scared from us. You brother asked me a favor to save you." As he said that, Jin came from behind and pushed Yang Lan out of the way.

"Sister I was worried to death about your safety. I don't know what I would do without you." Jin said sobbing.

"Leave your reunion for later. Let's get out of here and sinki them to hell." said Xu Bai.

Ten minutes later, they were out of the boat and already far.

[Master I already sent the signal. They'll start soon.]

"Let's watch the fireworks." said Yang Lan.

At that moment, the two corvettes left the cave and behind them was the Sea Titan. As soon as they were in position, they started firing with the 76 mm guns while the Sea Titan was in standby.

Hawk pirates POV,

"Captain the corvettes are coming out of the cave." said a plump ugly looking pirate.

"Bring the champagne! It seems they are ready to surrender those sh.i.p.s to me." said the Captain excitedly. "Call Serizawa here. We need to celebrate."

Moments later the plump pirate came back with a horrified face. "Captain we found Serizawa dead and also that woman is gone too."

As for how Serizawa died, when Yang Lan and the rest were looking for Chiaki, they accidentally bump into him. Jin didn't give him a chance and sliced his head.

Without time to react, booming sounds could be heard and moments later the boats at the sides were on fire or about to sink.

"Retreat. Let's get out of here."

They tried to leave but the Iron pirates didn't gave them a chance of survival and fired a missile to the boat.

The boat was like a paper against the missile. Upon contact it was torn to shreds.

It was the end of the Hawk pirates...
