Anger (2)

"Hehe, be careful." The Little Black Cat grinned when it saw that everyone had guns. Then, it led the robot away and began hunting down Liu Bahu's men.

The Little Black Cat acted like a commander, directing the robots to launch attacks and hunt down Liu Bahu without lifting a finger. Wherever there was a shortage of manpower, it would deploy the robots. It was because of its involvement that the number of civilian casualties was not so high; otherwise, countless civilians would have died as a result.

The Little Black Cat hid itself and didn't participate actively because it had already released hundreds of robots, all of which needed its adjustment and deployment. Therefore, it couldn't afford to be distracted by anything else.

With its robots and the help of ordinary people, an army quietly formed. Although their combat power was not very strong, it should not be underestimated.

Liu Bahu's men were repeatedly defeated and retreated, hiding in the streets to fight against the crowd.

Because the civilian population is far too large and the enemy's numbers are far too small, a direct confrontation would absolutely result in their annihilation.

Banana Island, in the south.

Lin Haicheng arrived at a slum carrying a backpack.

This used to be his residence. Actually, it wasn't a slum before; it used to be relatively wealthy, and he never had to worry about food or clothing when he was a child. The reason it has become like this is mainly because Liu Bahu forced him into it.

Liu Bahu collects exorbitant protection fees every month. If you can't afford it, you'll be sent here. Even if you get here, you'll still have to pay protection fees, just a little less.

Over time, everyone was exploited until they had no money left. So, this place gradually became a place for the poor to live.

The people who stayed here were not in the seafood business; they didn't have much of a source of income to begin with. After Liu Bahu arrived, he cut off their source of income as well, leaving them with no choice but to do odd jobs to earn a living.

As Lin Haicheng walked along, seeing everyone's living conditions, his eyes welled up with tears. He knew that everyone was forced into this situation.

He didn't speak to them and went straight home.

Arriving at his own doorstep and seeing the familiar house, he felt both excited and apprehensive.

What troubled him was that his uncle was no longer alive.

When Liu Bahu first arrived, he really wanted to hunt that bastard down with a shotgun. However, his uncle stopped him, telling him not to do anything reckless. Fortunately, he didn't, otherwise, he would already be a cold, lifeless corpse.

After his uncle stopped him, many people launched a sneak attack to kill Liu Bahu. However, without a doubt, they were all killed by Liu Bahu in the end. And if he had been exposed at that time, he would certainly have died as well.

His uncle later put him in a sealed bucket, then threw it into the sea, sending him on his way.

He never returned after that. Liu Bahu was too powerful; his return would be useless. He needed to control a formidable force and lead them in a counterattack. Only in this way could he kill Liu Bahu.

However, although he no longer controls a powerful force, he has joined a formidable pirate crew and now possesses the strength to fight Liu Bahu. He is still very happy about this.

He walked forward step by step, and when he arrived at the door, he gently pushed open the dilapidated door.

The door opened, and he stepped out.

Inside the house, there were two men and a woman. They were busy working.

The woman was in her fifties, with gray hair, wearing a coarse cloth coat, her hands covered in calluses. She was bending over, washing clothes, her back to him, and she didn't see him.

The two men, one of whom was very young, about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, was chopping wood with an axe. He also had his back to him, so he didn't see him come in.

The other man was much older, an old man with white hair, a wrinkled face, and a large pipe in his mouth. He was doing nothing but sitting on a bench with his eyes closed, whether asleep or awake, it was unclear.

Lin Haicheng stared at the old man for a long time, and then tears welled up in his eyes. Although the man was old, he could tell at a glance that this was his uncle, Lin Tieshan.

He had a very good relationship with his uncle when he was a child, and whenever they had time, they would hold competitions to see who could hunt more prey. Therefore, he still remembers his uncle's physical features vividly, even after so many years.

As for his aunt, his impression of her was not deep, because he had very little contact with her. So many years had passed, and his memory of her had long since become blurred.

"Uncle," Lin Haicheng called out as he quickly walked over to the old man.

His movements were large and his voice was loud; everyone heard him.

All three looked at Lin Haicheng. The other two didn't recognize Lin Haicheng, but the old man was stunned for a moment when he saw Lin Haicheng, and then became excited.

"Haicheng, you... why are you back?" The old man looked at Lin Haicheng and asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Uncle, I came to see you and brought back some gifts." Lin Haicheng said with a smile. As he spoke, he opened his backpack, took out several bundles of money and dozens of gold bars, and placed them in his uncle Lin Tieshan's hands.

"This..." Lin Tieshan was at a loss when he saw that he suddenly had so much money.

"Uncle, Aunt, why don't you find a place to hide it first? Then we can have a proper talk," Lin Haicheng said, seeing his uncle's excitement.

Lin Tieshan was a worldly man. After his initial excitement, he quickly calmed down. He called his son and wife over and whispered some instructions in their ears. A moment later, his wife and son took the money and gold bars, went inside, and began to hide them.

"Son, Liu Bahu isn't dead yet, why did you come back? You're impulsive, if Liu Bahu catches you, you're doomed!" Lin Tieshan said, somewhat puzzled.

Back then, he sent Lin Haicheng away because Lin Haicheng was impetuous. He worried that if Lin Haicheng stayed, he would always be thinking about assassinating Liu Bahu. Many people tried to assassinate Liu Bahu, but they all died in the end. He didn't want his nephew to suffer the same fate.

This is his elder brother's only bloodline; if he dies here, he will have failed his own brother.

"Hehe, Uncle, I came back this time to kill Liu Bahu. Otherwise, I would never have come back," Lin Haicheng grinned and said.

"You... you're crazy?" Upon hearing this, Lin Tieshan was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground. He had been worried about this, but he never expected Lin Haicheng to actually do it.

"Hehe, Uncle, don't worry! I've grown up now. I'm not the impetuous child I used to be. Now, I'll think things through before I act. If I'm not confident, I definitely won't come back to my death," Lin Haicheng said calmly.

"Alright, even if you've become capable, Liu Bahu hasn't been idle for over ten years. He's been training every day," Lin Tieshan said. "The Liu Bahu of today is far more terrifying than the Liu Bahu of over ten years ago."

"Perhaps, but this time he's definitely going to die, I guarantee it," Lin Haicheng said.

"How can you guarantee that?" Lin Tieshan asked.

"Because I joined a powerful pirate crew. My captain has arrived on this island and is currently scouting. He could launch an attack at any moment," Lin Haicheng said with a smile. He was very confident in Fanxin's strength.

"You became a pirate?" Lin Tieshan hesitated for a moment before saying, "You haven't bullied ordinary people, have you? Otherwise, I won't forgive you."

"Uncle, don't worry! I won't impose the pain I've suffered on others," Lin Haicheng assured him. "Besides, the pirate crew I joined is very special. They only target pirates, bounty hunters, and gangsters. They don't even touch ordinary people. If it weren't for that, I definitely wouldn't have joined."

"Heh, really? There's actually such a pirate crew?" Lin Tieshan was somewhat incredulous upon hearing this.

"Uncle, you'll believe it once you see them," Lin Haicheng said. In his uncle's eyes, pirates were criminals, all of them bad people. Therefore, he couldn't convince his uncle to believe him. However, he believed that once his uncle met Fanxin, he wouldn't have such a strong prejudice.

"Alright, how many of them are there? Compared to Liu Bahu, are they much larger?" Lin Tieshan asked. He didn't want to know about Fanxin's affairs; he only wanted to know if the other side had the strength to overthrow Liu Bahu's rule. They had been enslaved terribly by Liu Bahu and wanted to overthrow him.

If Fanxin doesn't have enough strength, their arrival will only be a death sentence.

"Six, plus me, seven," Lin Haicheng said.

"Only seven people?" Lin Tieshan looked at his nephew and said, "Are you kidding me?"

"I'm not kidding. To be precise, including me, there are only five people. The other two are pets," Lin Haicheng explained.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tieshan froze on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

"Uncle, what's wrong?" Lin Haicheng asked.

"Kid, you've gone too far with this joke. No, I can't let you go to your death," Lin Tieshan said immediately. Five people, plus two pets, trying to defeat Liu Bahu? He thought it was impossible. Lin Haicheng was his elder brother's only son; he couldn't let his nephew go to his death.

"Hehe, Uncle, don't worry. Although we are few in number, our fighting strength is very strong," Lin Haicheng said. "Our captain alone can wipe out all of Liu Bahu's men. I'm not exaggerating; it's the truth."

"No one is that capable, don't try to fool me." Lin Tieshan still didn't believe it; he thought his nephew was being too reckless.

"Uncle, I'm not lying to you. Just recently, the captain led us to destroy four warships. If the captain hadn't been reluctant to kill innocent people, none of the sailors on those four ships would have survived," Lin Haicheng said. "And what's even more unbelievable is that he also kept a giant sea serpent, comparable to Sea Kings, as a pet. If he didn't have the strength, do you think he could have done that?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tieshan's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken?" Lin Tieshan asked.

"Hmph, I was on the ship, how could I be wrong? These guys aren't ordinary people, they're monsters. Even those two animals are no ordinary creatures. They could easily kill all of Liu Bahu's men," Lin Haicheng said. "Therefore, I have every reason to believe that they can kill Liu Bahu."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tieshan froze on the spot, unsure whether to believe his nephew, given the vast disparity in troop strength between the two sides.

Just as Lin Tieshan was pondering, Lin Haicheng's Den Den Mushi rang.

Lin Haicheng answered the phone immediately.

"Hey, Lin Haicheng, have you found your uncle yet? If you have, hurry over! Boss has already made a move against Liu Bahu, and they're fighting fiercely. We've started our operation too, and we're just waiting for you. Hurry up, or we'll all be wiped out, and you won't be able to get revenge." A voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi; it was the Little Black Cat's voice.

"Didn't you say we'd start after I got here?" Lin Haicheng said immediately.

"Sigh, Boss wanted to go to Liu Bahu's club for drinks, but because he didn't have a membership card, they wouldn't let him in. So, Boss got furious and just stormed in, and now the club is destroyed. Liu Bahu is livid and attacking Boss like crazy. However, Boss isn't going all out yet because there are still many innocent civilians nearby, and his attack range is too wide; he's worried about hurting them. Right now, I'm moving them away. Once I've sent all the innocent people away, Boss will go all out and wipe out Liu Bahu." The Little Black Cat said, "Hey kid, hurry up and come over here!"

"Okay, I'm coming right away. Leave a few for me!" Lin Haicheng said hurriedly. He knew that Fanxin and his gang were a bunch of lunatics who would show no mercy to their opponents. If he arrived late, he would have no opponents left to fight.

"That won't do," the Little Black Cat immediately replied.

"Why?" Lin Haicheng asked, puzzled.

"Hehe, the people are all mobilized. I'm delivering Liu Bahu's weapons over there. There are far more people than Liu Bahu's men. There aren't enough to go around. How can I leave any for you?" the Little Black Cat said helplessly.

"You... you guys are really despicable." Upon hearing this, Lin Haicheng immediately turned off the Den Den Mushi. Then he took out his sniper rifle parts and began to assemble it.

He was very fast; in no time, a finished sniper rifle appeared in his hand.

"Uncle, I'll come back to catch up with you after I'm done fighting. I have to go now, otherwise, Liu Bahu's men will all be taken down by someone else." After saying that, Lin Haicheng ran outside.

"Wait." Lin Tieshan suddenly called out to his nephew.

"Uncle, is there anything else?" Lin Haicheng asked anxiously.

"Hehe, wait for me, I'll go with you," Lin Tieshan said.

"Ah, Uncle, you're going too? But, how old are you?" Lin Haicheng was stunned upon hearing this. His uncle was almost sixty years old, and his physical functions were declining. This was a life-or-death struggle; if his uncle went, he might not come back.

"Hmph, brat, don't underestimate me. I can teach you your sniping skills." Lin Tieshan snorted, then called out his son, saying, "Fei'er, go get my hunting rifle right now."

"Father, that's too dangerous, you too..." Lin Fei hesitated, not wanting his father to go and die.

"Stop talking nonsense and go now! If you don't go, do you believe I'll beat you up?" Lin Tieshan shouted impatiently. Dealing with Liu Bahu had been his wish for over ten years. However, after countless deaths, he finally gave up. Because he was not a desperate criminal, but a man with a family. If he died, his mother and son would be even more heartbroken.

Therefore, he had been patiently enduring it all. Now that he finally had his chance, he naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his doom.

"Old man, you're too old. Why don't you let the young people go? Why are you being so stubborn?" Lin Tieshan's wife came out and said with dissatisfaction.

"Stop talking nonsense, I..." Lin Tieshan turned around and began to scold his wife.

However, before he could finish speaking, he fainted. He wasn't knocked unconscious by anger, but by being knocked unconscious by Lin Haicheng.

Lin Haicheng had no choice but to knock his uncle unconscious. In his youth, his uncle was indeed a sharpshooter, hitting the bullseye every time. However, his uncle was now old, and his abilities in all aspects had declined. Sending him now would be tantamount to sending him to his death.

After tomorrow, everything on Banana Island will be wonderful, and he doesn't want his uncle to die like this. He gave his uncle a large sum of money, hoping he could live a good life.

"Come on, Lin Fei, help your uncle inside," Lin Haicheng shouted.

Upon hearing this, Lin Fei immediately stepped forward and carried his father to the bed.

"Auntie, please take good care of Uncle. He doesn't need to worry about things over there; I'll handle it," Lin Haicheng said. Lin Haicheng's aunt nodded, indicating that she understood.

Nodding, Lin Haicheng left without further hesitation.

After leaving the slums, he began attacking Liu Bahu's men.

He first wiped out a stronghold near the slums, leaving no survivors. Then, he frantically headed towards the location of the club.

He ran and fired at the same time, showing no mercy to any of Liu Bahu's men he saw, like a god of death.

Soon after, he reunited with the Little Black Cat.

"Hehe, you've finally arrived!" the Little Black Cat said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Haicheng rolled his eyes and said, "You guys are so unfair! I haven't even started fighting yet, and you've already begun. How's the situation now?!"

"It's not good. Boss's attack is a bit dangerous; no one else can get close. However, there are too many people here now. So, Boss can only stall them." The Little Black Cat said, "You go snipe, and I'll guide the people to the beach. That way, Boss can go all out."
