Codex Pirates

Chapter 87 Easy to talk

Felton was startled and wanted to get up from the chair, but at this time four powerful big hands were holding him down from behind. He turned his head and saw that the owners of the big hands were Crow and Diego.

Immediately without knowing when, Selkirk, who had gotten up and circled behind Felton, pulled out a long rope from his sleeve. After Digo and Crowe held Felton down, he pulled the finger-thick rope from Put the back around Felton's neck, and then tighten it slowly.

Felton was caught off guard. He struggled in panic, but was held down by Digo and Crowe. The chair under him was driven by his struggle, and the legs of the chair creaked on the ground. The feeling of suffocation gradually entered his mind, and his rounded eyes were full of fear.

Ship doctor Wood and Hutcherson stood up from their chairs, looking pale at Felton, whose face was flushed due to lack of oxygen.

The ship doctor Wood was sweating, he didn't know why he said it well, and William had always been very relaxed, but the scene suddenly became tense and seemed at a loss.

Hutcherson subconsciously wanted to draw the knife, but when his eyes fell on Harden who was still sitting on the chair with a calm expression, he hesitated for a moment. Although his hand fell on the handle of the knife, he still didn't pull it out.

Hutcherson looked at William again, and found that he was sitting behind the desk with a relaxed face, looking at himself and Wood with interest.

"Why are you standing up?" William looked at the pale-faced Wood and Hutcherson and said with a smile, "You two sit down first."

Wood and Hutcherson sat down again tremblingly, but their muscles were tense and could explode at any time, and they looked back from time to time.

William smiled after seeing the two of them. At this time, Felton was struggling less and less, and Selkirk was so strong that Felton's neck was almost broken by him.

Gradually, Felton became motionless, and the clothes on Hutcherson and Wood were already wet with sweat.

At this moment, William came out from behind the desk. Selkirk let go of the rope, and retreated a few steps with Diego and Crowe. The strangled Felton's head hung limply.

With a flash of light from the knife, William instantly struck out the knife. With his swordsmanship, his grasp of space and distance was already considered outstanding. The point of the knife just passed Felton's neck, directly beheading Felton's head and rolling down on the ground. on the ground.

Felton's headless corpse swayed on the chair, and then fell to the ground with a "plop". In the blink of an eye, a small pool of blood gathered under the corpse, and the room was filled with a lingering wave of blood. bloody smell.

A few drops of blood splashed onto William's face. Crowe had quick eyes and quick hands, and had already taken out a clean handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to William.

"You two, maybe you think I'm cleaning up," William slowly wiped away the blood, and calmly said to Wood and Hutcherson, "Felton probably thought I wouldn't be able to tolerate him, and would clean him up sooner or later." , but you really underestimate me if you think so."

"I will not pursue what happened in the past. From the moment you have no objection to me becoming the captain on the deck, I will not pursue any mistakes that anyone has made before, because I was not the captain before this, and you have not yet submitted to me. I offer my loyalty," William glanced over the faces of Selkirk, Crowe, Diego, and Harden one by one, and he also said this to them, "I gave a challenge to all the crew members on the deck. Felton did not show up, which means he agrees with me as the captain, but now he is making small moves for me below, connecting the crew in private, and wants to leave."

"Do you think I will let him go?" William asked with a smile, "He thinks he can leave as he wants. The most important thing in the Pirates is loyalty. If you have any opinions, you can ask me. , I am a person who is easy to talk to my own people, but if I do some small tricks like Felton, a fool, I will not let it go lightly, I will do what I say."

William ordered Digo: "As I said on the deck at the time, throw his body into the sea."

Diego responded, and left the house with the corpse.

The ship's doctor, Wood, wiped his sweat, and secretly slandered, strangled a person to death, is it good to talk? It's just that Wood didn't have the guts to say it.

However, he and Hutcherson calmed down a lot at this time, because they had already figured it out. The two of them had been honest since William became the captain. Since William hadn't lost his mind, he would not attack them.

The ship doctor Wood touched his bald head, which was covered with sweat. He forced a smile and said, "Felton really deserves to die. When he had an opinion at the beginning, he should have raised it in front of everyone, but now he is sneaky, and instead let him People look down on it."

William's smile widened and he nodded slowly, while Hutcherson took a sip of his wine and ventured to test: "What about the people around Felton?"

After hearing the words, William looked at Harden and asked, "What do you think should be done?"

Harden grinned: "Those are Felton's hard-core confidantes, they can't be returned to their hearts, I mean..."

Harden scratched the front of his throat with his hand, and the meaning was self-evident.

"Then kill them all," William said without hesitation, "You deal with it."

Crowe's eyes flickered, he knew the purpose of William asking Selkirk to strangle Felton.

Although Felton is a so-called "traitor", Selkirk's strangulation of him in this way will still make the natives of the East China Sea on board fear and reject him, making it even more difficult for these outsiders from the North Sea to be sincerely accepted.

It's just that Crowe doesn't know the meaning of William's order at this time. He is the person on board who knows William's intentions best. He knows that William is by no means a bloodthirsty person.

...

William didn't take anyone directly to Kalmar City, but collected the pirate flag first, and stopped at Hongye Village to rest.

The crew of the Morgan Pirates, although they didn’t experience any major battles in the windless zone this time, they almost slept in the open air along the way, and they were worried. Even the captain changed, and the whole ship’s hearts fluttered. It would be better to take a rest on his own territory, and he also had to rearrange the work under his charge.

William had just killed the former vice-captain Felton and his gang with thunderbolts on the ship. There was no need to worry that the pirates on the ship would dare to disobey his orders and cause trouble in the village. Tony's uncle Omar was the local village head, so there was no need Worried about alarming the navy or other official forces.

During this journey, William spent a lot of energy and was very tired. After arriving at Hongye Village, even though he faced a group of old team members whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he still didn't say much. I went to rest.
