God-Level Special Forces Soldier

Soon, the curses rose one after another, and everyone looked utterly disheveled.

”Damn it, if you can’t drive a boat, then don’t!” One person slapped the dust off his body and cursed angrily.

”Who the hell is steering this boat? I’m going to file a complaint!” A bespectacled man held onto the backrest of the front seat with one hand and covered his nose with tissues in the other. However, the frame of his glasses was bent, and one lens was missing, revealing a red stain on the tissue covering his nose.

”Screw you, whoever’s steering, get your ass over here!”

This display of harsh words, combined with the man’s rough voice, instantly drew everyone’s attention.

As they looked over, everyone was taken aback, then replaced their expressions with one of realization. Those who had earlier frowned, thinking the man was going too far, now expressed understanding.

Because the man’s appearance at this moment was truly comical…

The man cursing had oddly styled hair, in a curly light yellow color, and a faint aroma of instant noodles emanating from his body…

”Hmm, beef stew!”

”Beef stew, my ass, it’s clearly mushroom chicken stew.”

”Nonsense, I think it’s onion rib!”

Upon hearing the heated arguments around him, the man grew even angrier, his upper body visibly heaving with heavy breaths, his face turning red and purple with anger. He yanked off the curly, light yellow item from his head and threw it to the ground with force.

At that moment, the entire scene fell silent…

It took a moment for everyone to react, their noses twitching slightly, realizing it wasn’t any odd hair color but outright instant noodles!

They recalled the earlier arguments about flavor, and their expressions turned peculiar. Each person stifled their laughter, embarrassed to actually laugh out loud.

With a ”pfft!”, someone couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing, clutching their stomach and gasping for air, intermittently saying, ”So-sorry, I just… I just couldn’t help it, hahaha!”

Soon, this infectious laughter spread to everyone present, especially seeing the man’s hair still dripping with soup, making it harder to control, as laughter echoed throughout.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Tian exchanged a glance with the two startled women beside him, both of them breaking into a silent laugh, marveling at the unpredictability of life.

...

”Click.”

A crisp sound came from upfront, which seemed inconspicuous amidst the laughter, but Xiao Tian still heard it clearly.

The Zhong Family’s experts weren’t amateurs either, having also caught the sound, their gaze towards the central door in the corridor.

Before long, a young man in a staff uniform appeared in view.

The young man paused, seeing everyone bent over laughing, thinking these people must be crazy. They just had an emergency stop and were still laughing so hard, truly an odd bunch.

Fortunately, the young man had some professional standards, quickly reverting his dazed expression to a standard apologetic one, bowing repeatedly, ”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, there was an emergency just now, please pardon the inconvenience!”

As soon as he spoke, everyone stopped laughing, all turning to look at the man with the wet and differently colored hair, in an oddly uniform motion.

This scene confused the young man; what’s wrong with these people?

Could they really have been knocked silly?

But before he could react, a waft of instant noodle aroma disrupted his thoughts, followed by a sharp pain at the back of his neck, causing his feet to involuntarily lift off the ground.

Shocked, the young man quickly motioned with his hand, only to see a wet-haired man glaring at him, with some small red and green bits on top of his head.

After a while, the young man could distinguish the red was likely carrot, and the green was cabbage!

Having reached this conclusion, the young man more or less realized what had happened.

To ensure his personal safety wasn’t threatened, he quickly explained, ”Please don’t be impulsive, let me explain…”

Before he could finish speaking, the man interrupted, ”Explain my ass! Get the captain over here, there’s no way this is just going to end today!”

”The earlier stop was due to a temporary inspection, it’s not our fault!” the young man said with a pained expression.

”Are you insulting me?” The man exerted more force with his hands, his tone aggressive, ”Even if what you’re saying is true, a temporary inspection wouldn’t occur without prior notice, would it?”

”According to what you’re saying, it should’ve been a pirate hold-up instead, right?”

This statement instantly raised Xiao Tian’s suspicion. Indeed, even if there was a sudden situation requiring a temporary inspection, there should’ve been prior notice through yelling or other means, not such a direct stop!

Although the shore wasn’t far now, that’s only relative to the ship’s sailing speed. If they really needed to swim over, even a professional swimmer would struggle here!

Xiao Tian furrowed his brow, beginning to deduce, ”Such reckless actions can only have two outcomes. The first is that there’s something extremely dangerous on this ship, forcing the authorities to take risky actions to halt the ship!”

”The second possibility is that the problem doesn’t lie with the ship itself but with someone on board...”

As for encountering pirates, Xiao Tian never considered it. This is Huaxia territory, what pirate would be so reckless as to act here?

Usually, the mention of pirates brings several inseparable keywords, like the Caribbean, ruthless and inhumane, tossing murder victims into the sea to feed sharks, and so on.

But at the end of the day, Xiao Tian thought pirates were no different than robbers on land, all seeking fortune!

Of course, they’re certainly ruthless, just that most people are so familiar yet unfamiliar with the term ’pirate’, inevitably leading to a sheeplike mentality.

So it’s obvious; a pirate’s fundamental goal is to seek fortune, not to die, how could they show up here?

Moreover, with no mention of pirates, even if there were, they would’ve been sunk long before getting close to the ship, certainly not waiting to halt it.

Realizing this, Xiao Tian had a sense that this incident was likely related to him again.

But who could the visitors be?

Just as he was deep in thought, Adison Claire whispered, ”It’s fine now… you can let go of me.”

Only then did Xiao Tian notice his hand still rested on the other’s waist, quickly withdrawing it with an awkward smile.

Adison Claire blushed slightly behind his mask, coughed, and asked, ”Just now, you seemed to be thinking about something?”

Xiao Tian nodded, without responding.

”Was it related to the earlier stop?” Adison Claire tried asking again.
