Chapter 384: Chapter 359: Interesting! An Offer of Amnesty?

Bo Asia.

Lu Feng arrived with Baguda and Yasna and was given a warm reception.

Fikda, the first governor of Bo Asia, was the former vice president of Cambodia and a long-time follower of Baguda.

Judging from Baguda’s character, anyone he placed great trust in would not be a selfish person, but someone who genuinely wanted to serve the people.

This was evident to everyone in Fikda’s work ethic after Cambodia and Dalat Town merged to form the Xuanfeng Alliance.

Among the high-ranking officials of the Xuanfeng Alliance monitored by Xiaozhi, he was the most hands-on.

That was why Bo Asia had dispatched him this time.

Upon learning of Lu Feng’s arrival, Fikda immediately brought a group to welcome and host them.

Chen Bo was also among them, constantly by Fikda’s side.

The next day, Fikda prepared a large conference room. Liu Hai once again became the center of attention as he began to explain the plans for the Nutrition Agent’s launch event.

After all, this was the reason Lu Feng and his group had come.

Fikda and the other leaders of Bo Asia were also very concerned with this matter and offered their full cooperation. After all, thanks to Liu Hai’s efforts, the Nutrition Agent’s launch event had truly boosted the reputation of Boya Natural Harbor.

This would be of immense benefit to all of Bo Asia.

At the very least, photos and videos of the beach resort taken by celebrities were already circulating on the international web.

This was highly beneficial.

As Liu Hai was speaking, Xiaozhi’s voice suddenly rang out. "Master, it seems someone has their eyes on the Nutrition Agent launch event. It’s a group called the Sar Pirate Organization. They plan to attack the event and carry out kidnappings for ransom."

Lu Feng was stunned by this report.

’What the hell?’

It would be one thing if a power like Myanmar came looking for trouble.

’But pirates? What the hell?’

’Are they tired of living?’

Xiaozhi’s voice sounded again. "Master, I’ve obtained their operational plans. The interesting thing is, their operation this time is to only capture celebrities from the Beautiful Country and a few other Western nations. Their leader has strictly ordered the pirates not to touch celebrities from any other country."

This stunned Lu Feng once again.

’What’s this about?’

He could understand pirates wanting to kidnap people for ransom. Provoking the Xuanfeng Alliance was just asking for death. Yet this group of pirates seemed to be specifically targeting the Beautiful Country and other Western nations.

’Now this is interesting.’

’These pirates seem to have some personality.’

Sensing Lu Feng’s interest, Xiaozhi continued, "Master, the pirates’ leader is named Nex. He’s a former naval officer from the Beautiful Country, but he is now at bitter odds with them due to an irreconcilable family feud."

"Moreover, the sensational case of the Soli Pirates killing their hostages, as well as their confrontation with the Beautiful Country’s navy, were also orchestrated by this Nex."

"He was the true mastermind behind it all. And if he hadn’t been leading a group of disobedient, poorly equipped pirates, the Beautiful Country’s navy would have likely suffered a major defeat."

"Now, he’s taken the pirates loyal to him and formed the Sar Pirate Organization. However, it seems they don’t want to be pirates anymore. They’re planning to pull off this one last job, then retire and live normal lives in obscurity."

"And they are dead set on succeeding in kidnapping these celebrities from the Beautiful Country and other Western nations."

"Retiring?" Lu Feng remarked.

’This man is talented.’

Xiaozhi’s voice came again. "Master, weren’t you considering establishing a maritime force for patrols and escorts after Boya Natural Harbor is built? Perhaps you could grant them amnesty. In the history of the Dragon Country, there are many famous generals who were once pirates granted amnesty. Perhaps this Nex will be to your liking."

Just then, Liu Hai finished his presentation.

Lu Feng seized the opportunity to ask, "Who is in charge of security for the launch event?"

"His Excellency the Governor, I am." A middle-aged man in a military uniform stood up and said.

Lu Feng asked him directly, "If pirates were to suddenly attack the launch event, how would you respond? Or rather, what defensive measures have you prepared?"

This question stunned the man. After a long pause, he said, "His Excellency the Governor, how could any pirates dare to come to our..."

Lu Feng cut him off. "I’m asking what if they do come? What if they’re pirates that even the Beautiful Country’s navy is helpless against? What would you do?"

"If they launch a surprise attack on the harbor, would you lead men to reinforce it?"

"If they also sent people to infiltrate the beach resort and cause chaos, how would you handle it!"

"If they were to..."

"Tell me your countermeasures and plans right now."

Lu Feng fired off several consecutive questions, his gaze finally fixing on the man.

The middle-aged officer seemed completely bewildered by this series of questions, his mind unable to process them quickly enough. Just as he was about to answer, Lu Feng cut him off again and turned directly to Chen Bo. "Chen Bo, contact Yang Ming. Have him and Red Lizard bring their people to Bo Asia to take charge of security for the launch event."

Evidently, the people of Boya were truly lacking in this area.

"Yes, Governor." Chen Bo nodded immediately and stepped aside to make the call, not questioning Lu Feng’s order in the slightest.

As for the middle-aged officer, he hung his head in shame, not daring to look at Lu Feng.

The others exchanged bewildered glances, not understanding what had just happened.

Only Baguda and Yasna frowned slightly.

’Could it be that pirates are really coming?’

’Otherwise, His Excellency the Governor wouldn’t have made such a drastic move as to call over Red Lizard.’

...

Time flew by. Under the watchful eyes of countless people, the Xuanfeng Alliance’s Nutrition Agent launch event was finally about to begin.

As word of the event spread, it wasn’t just overweight people who were paying attention to the Xuanfeng Alliance’s Nutrition Agent launch.

After all, even beautiful women with the slimmest, most stunning figures were also following the matter closely.

For them, the desire to maintain their beautiful figures was no less intense than an overweight person’s desire to lose weight—it was perhaps even stronger.

It was precisely because they had it that they had enjoyed the benefits of a stunning figure—the preferential treatment and adoration they received from men, or even the powerful impact they had on them...

Therefore, they were even more desperate to maintain what they had, unwilling to be affected by the creeping fat that could appear at any moment.

And a product like this could offer them a huge sense of security.

Under the moonlight, the new beach tourist area of the Bo Asia harbor was brightly lit.

The beach’s cafes, rest areas, and various facilities were all illuminated by brilliant neon lights.

These lights used a special technique to adorn the facilities, making them seem dreamlike and fantastical, like a sacred coastal paradise.

This was a technique used by some beach resorts in the Dragon Country, which had gradually become more widespread.

Now, Liu Hai had directly applied it to the harbor beach in Bo Asia, and the effect was clearly excellent.

The bustling atmosphere inside said it all.

Although a large part of this was because people were there to attend the Xuanfeng Alliance’s product launch.

However, not everyone was qualified to board the super-luxury cruise ship where the launch event was being held.

Only the tourists who had booked hotel rooms on the cruise ship and the invited celebrities were eligible to board the super-liner and participate in the product launch.

Griss had arrived long ago.

Accompanied by her assistant, Kelly, she was already strolling along the beach.

"Kelly, doesn’t everyone say Boya is extremely poor, even backward? This beach resort of theirs is actually very nice," Griss couldn’t help but praise.

Kelly reminded her, "Boss, Boya may be poor, but they’ve joined the Xuanfeng Alliance now, and the Xuanfeng Alliance is anything but."

"You should know, the Xuanfeng Alliance is extremely wealthy now. Many rich people have deposited their money in Xuanfeng Bank. Perhaps you could also deposit that... less-than-regular portion of your money in Xuanfeng Bank."

"Hmm." Griss nodded seriously.

The two of them wandered around the beach resort for a while before getting a call that the launch event was about to start.

They hurried toward the super-liner with their invitation.

When they arrived in front of the cruise ship, a large number of international celebrities were already lined up with their invitations, and almost all of them were overweight.

Just as the Xuanfeng Alliance’s Nutrition Agent launch was about to begin, in the distance, upon the sea surface shrouded by the night, special ships slowly emerged from the darkness and docked in a cove.

From there, they had a perfect vantage point of the super-luxury cruise ship’s location.

On those special ships was the Sar Pirate Organization, led by Nex.

They had come to fight their final battle before retirement.
