Bering Sea.
The Yushui Hao faced a sudden storm.
Aside from the hull rocking a little more violently, the impact on the vessel itself was practically negligible.
Ye Yuan had originally been worried that the Scorpion Gang might launch a surprise attack.
But in weather like this, even the Scorpion Gang couldn't be stupid enough to come rob them, could they?
Just as the crew hiding in the wheelhouse were still discussing the changing weather over the Bering Sea,
a bolt of lightning fell from the sky.
It struck the sea not far from the Yushui Hao.
