"Something's wrong! That ship's keel has broken! It's dangerous here—we have to leave as soon as possible!"
Quite a few people heard the shout. Captain Li jogged over to report to the Tiga Clone, his face pale.
With the keel broken, the ship had lost the support maintaining its shape. Given the vessel's weight, once it deformed, its buoyancy could no longer offset gravity, and it would quickly sink into the water—faster and faster.
As the ship sank, it would force aside the water in its path, and that water would then flow back above it. This process would create a whirlpool.
Even if it was only a small fishing boat, the resulting whirlpool could place enormous pressure on a ship's hull—pressure that would never occur under normal circumstances—and might even damage it.
In this weather and environment, if the ship started taking on water, that would be fatal. Even the coast guard would have trouble rescuing them.
"Alright, Captain Li. Go make the preparations."
The show wasn't over yet, so he couldn't break character. Besides, with A Ning and Zhang Qiling there, Wu Xie would be fine in a minor situation like this—as A Ning had said earlier, they still needed Wu Xie to help guide them.

Those people had been working in the gray area to begin with. If they got themselves killed, they had it coming. As long as the Cai family's people
