Chapter 276 276 Unexpected
Although he had to pay a high price, the benefit of taking over the Windsor family far surpassed such an expense.
Nelson, unlike his father, wasn't as interested in destroying the budding hopes of the Windsor family. Nelson was a degenerate who was incapable of thinking with his mind. His actions were dictated by his cock and even in such a desperate time for their family, he was thinking of fucking the girl who had dared to refuse his advances at the entrance of the Windsor family.
Christina's seductive figure had been on his mind ever since he laid eyes on her. Seeing her beside Zach had aroused his jealousy and he had ended up asking Blackbeard for her.
Since the fearsome pirate had already promised him the woman, Nelson had been in a state of ecstasy the whole time as he waited patiently for the arrival of Blackbeard at a seaside port that was the closest deepwater port to Greenland and could support the docking of the pirate ship.
While Hogan was wondering whether the Smith family had ceased existing or not, Nelson couldn't think past his dick and was fantasizing about banging the goddess like Christina.
He planned to break her spirit that had allowed her to stand up to him at the Windsor family mansion. He imagined Christina sobbing and screaming underneath him, her pride trampled, and her dignity robbed, as he had his way with her until he couldn't be bothered with her anymore.
All the anger he had bottled up within himself, he planned to let Christina experience every single bit of it. He had been so close to fucking Violet whom he had lusted after for a good amount of time, but Christina and some other meddlesome people had ruined his father's plans. Due to their meddling, his father had given him a hard time in his own home for so many days. All the frustration he felt then, he was planning on releasing it all now, at once.
While Hogan was pacing back and forth on the relatively empty quay, Nelson couldn't keep his eyes away from the sea lest he miss the arrival of the ship from afar. He was so turned on that he planned to ask Blackbeard for Christina as soon as his ship made port. Otherwise, his father and the pirate captain would take too long discussing the payment and other formalities. He didn't want to get stuck between the two of them when he could be fucking an absolute goddess somewhere else.
Hogan was getting restless by the second, but he knew that taking down Zach wasn't an easy job at all. Even if they had taken down Zach already, the pirates being the rapscallions they were might be taking their time looting the island bare before returning to him.
Just as he was about to go sit down again due to his feet growing numb, the water in the deepwater port began to bulge as if something huge was moving underneath the water surface and the sea was unable to contain it on its own.
The bulge parted in the middle as a huge snake-like creature with a long beard raised its head. It was the sea dragon that had barely managed to escape Greenland with its life intact at the behest of Blackbeard, whom it had made a deal with.
Such a gigantic creature could drive the soul out of anyone's body let alone Hogan and Nelson duo who relied on their schemes and underhanded means to get things done. They were about to piss themselves in fear when they noticed a particular thing hanging under the beard of the creature.
At first they thought it was some kind of ornament. But as the sea dragon swam towards the port, they could finally make out the exact shape of the item. It wasn't an item at all.
It was a human, and a pretty stocky one at that. It was just that compared to the beast, even the stocky human looked like a little toy.
The sea dragon stopped at the edge of the quay and lowered its head slightly. The muscled man jumped down and landed on the stone platform with a thud. One could ascertain how heavy the man was just from that thudding sound.
"Uncle Blackbeard...you are here." shouted Nelson as he happily lunged towards him in hopes of coaxing him to give up Christina earlier, that is before the two men began to discuss their matters.
"Did you bring something for me?"
Although the pirate captain appeared to be furious, Nelson thought that he had always been like that and ignored his survival instinct that was screaming inside him. His lust won over his instinct to survive, and he ended up demanding Christina by extending his palm towards Blackbeard.
Blackbeard couldn't keep his anger in check after witnessing how shameless Hogan's son was. Here he had come after sacrificing his crew and his ship and the little mutt couldn't keep his dick in check for a little while longer.
Blackbeard kicked the lustful Nelson to the side like a dirty dog in the street and didn't bother about him any longer.
Hogan, who had been waiting for Blackbeard's news eagerly could not stay silent anymore and called out to Blackbeard in an inquiring tone.
"What is the meaning of this?"
There was something in Hogan's tone that made it seem like he was demanding an explanation from Blackbeard for treating his son in such a manner. After all, their collaboration had yet to conclude, and Blackbeard was already treating his son in such a manner. He even wondered if Blackbeard had gone back on his deal and had shaken hands with Zach. Otherwise, such a drastic change in attitude wouldn't be possible.
"YOU...YOU...you're asking me? You DARE...ask me that?" Blackbeard was fuming as soon as Hogan called for his explanation. When he looked back at it, Hogan was the root of his current condition. If not for him, Blackbeard would have never provoked a person like Zach. Hogan's shitty information network had fed him false information that led to the demise of his crew and drowned him in debt of the sea dragon from head to toe.
Hogan on the other hand hadn't expected such an outburst from Blackbeard. He couldn't understand what had gone wrong with Blackbeard after their last meeting. He looked like a different man now. The cheerful yet dangerous man was nowhere to be seen. On the contrary, he looked like a vengeful shrew at the moment.
An idea popped up in his mind, an idea that made his legs go weak as soon as it appeared in his mind.
"Did something go wrong on the island? Did Zach manage to escape? Does he know that I sent Blackbeard to the island?" Blackbeard's furious outlook matched perfectly with the idea, but Hogan needed to figure out the extent of it. He wondered just what had happened on that tiny island for Blackbeard to be in such a foul mood.
Not knowing the details, he didn't push Blackbeard's buttons even though he wanted to ask for an explanation regarding his son who had been kicked aside by him mercilessly.
After carefully deliberating about it, he cautiously asked, "Why is your mood so sour? Did something unexpected happen on the island?"
Hogan tried to sound more casual about his inquiry. But Blackbeard's eyes continued to discharge bloodlust like a broken faucet as if the cause of everything that transpired to his group was Hogan and his stupid request.
Blackbeard wanted nothing more than to shred the stupid bastard's body into a hundred separate segments. Alas, he still needed to recover the cost he had expended while accomplishing the task that Hogan had hired him to do.
The sea dragon behind Blackbeard wasn't any different as even its beastly face had an expression full of wrath and indignation.
"Unexpected...Hahahaha...", Blackbeard laughed viciously before staring Hogan straight in the eyes as if challenging him, "you still dare to ask me that with your pathetic information network? All the information you gave me regarding that dark mage...all of it...utterly useless. It was so far away from reality that I think you wanted to deliberately harm me by sending my force to the slaughterhouse. You really are cunning. You wanted me and that dark mage to kill each other, didn't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have given me such half assed information about him."
