Fujituro sat at the dining table and enjoyed his breakfast.
Breakfast is his favorite sashimi.
This is the freshest sea fish dish, freshly caught from the sea early in the morning.
Fujituro is a middle-aged man.
As a snow elf, he has a handsome appearance, but the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes show the vicissitudes of life.
His military career gave him not only his straight posture, but also a dignity beyond ordinary people.
Fujituro was eating sashimi while listening to reports from his subordinates on various matters.
As the number one gang in Snowbird Port, the Bayonet Gang naturally has a lot of affairs. Fujituro is a real busy man, and he has no time to relax even when he is having a meal.
Suddenly, Fujituro glanced sideways: "Oh, Ice Owl wants to dispatch gang members to deal with a mercenary group? Why?"
The subordinate replied: "According to Lord Ice Owl's story, this mercenary group did not know good and bad. They forcibly bought a giant intelligence potion from the store of the Secret Medicine Branch. This potion is useful for Lord Ice Owl in cultivating giants."
It’s a great help, so Lord Ice Owl wants to recover this potion.”
Fujituro nodded slightly, feeling a little satisfied with Bing Xiao.
Although Bing Xiao has resigned as the leader of the gang, he still retains a group of people under his command. These people are his confidants and die-hard loyalists.
For example, his gold-level giant slave.
However, Ice Owl did not take action directly. Instead, he made a request to the Bayonet Gang and informed Fujituro in advance.
This kind of attitude and behavior makes Fujituro, the current gang leader, feel very good.
Immediately, Fujituro was personally inclined to reciprocate the favor and provide some help to the Ice Owl.
However, Fujituro is a cautious person.
After making the formal decision, he asked again: "What is the situation of this Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group?"
The subordinate immediately pulled out a piece of paper and handed it to Fujituro: "This is the information we have obtained."
Fujituro laid the paper flat on the dining table, reached out and picked up a piece of jam and put it in his mouth while browsing the information.
The information shows:
The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group is a small force and does not have gold-level combat power.
The leader, Longfu, and the deputy leader, Zong Ge, are all silver-level. In addition, there are two other silver-level players, Chi Lai and Men Shi.
There are two mages on board, namely Lao Zhong, a black-iron-level man, and Hong Teng, a bronze-level man.
The members of this mercenary group have complex races, including humans, dwarves, dogs, water pigs, dragons, half-giants, etc.
The entire mercenary group has three magic ships. They are the flagship Love Triangle, the Iron Pimple, and the White Bandage. The former is black iron class, and the latter two are bronze class.
Other than that, they are all ordinary sea-going ships. There are no large ships, but mostly small and medium-sized ships. There are 13 ships in total.
There are two gold components in the fleet, namely the feathered serpent sail and the gold-level cannon. The latter has been damaged and is temporarily unusable.
The Bayonet Gang is indeed a local snake, and the information they have obtained is very detailed.
The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group arrived at the Ice Sculpture Kingdom, and within just two days of entering the port, the Bayonet Gang had already obtained so much information.
This is because the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group was first at sea and was inspected by the patrol fleet. Then it was moored at the dock and specially registered its own ship's information.
The Bayonet Gang's tentacles are very long and have penetrated into many departments. It is not difficult to obtain this information.
Fujituro looked at the information and made an assessment in his mind.
"A group of outsiders..."
"Although it is a small force, its strength is pretty good."
"There is potential..."
"There are also many hidden dangers."
The hidden danger that Fujituro believes is the complex race within the mercenary group.
He is very aware of the disadvantages of this hidden danger.
Because the situation of the Bayonet Gang is also very similar. The six generals under him belong to different races. Fujituro has suffered a lot in this regard when managing the gang and handling affairs on a daily basis.
The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group is not as strong as the Bayonet Gang.
After reading this information, Fujituro became more inclined to help Ice Owl.
"Although Ice Owl has retired, he is the previous leader of the Bayonet Gang and has a close relationship with the Bayonet Gang. If he can cultivate a second gold-level giant slave, it will also be good news for the entire Bayonet Gang.
"
"However, since Ice Owl wants to deal with this group of people, according to his acting style, the information above will definitely not satisfy him."
"He will definitely go find out more information."
"Since he seeks help from the gang, his information should also be sent over."
Fujituro was born in the military, and his main military position was as a staff officer, so he was very thoughtful and good at management.
He turned to look at his subordinates: "Is there any other relevant information?"
As he expected, his subordinate immediately handed him another piece of information that had been prepared.
"This information was specially provided by Mr. Ice Xiao." A subordinate reported.
Fujituro placed this piece of information on top of the previous piece of information and continued to watch while eating.
Soon, his chewing movements slowed down, and a cautious look appeared on his face.
The information obtained by Ice Owl no longer describes the composition of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group, ships, weapons and other equipment information, but describes some of the previous achievements and experiences of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
Ice Owl thus learned that the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group had participated in a naval battle on Eye Island.
In this battle, the dragon boy once faced off against a gold-level fish-man pirate, but was slightly defeated.
Their three magic ships were originally the property of others.
After the naval battle on Eye Island, they chased him out and had another naval battle with a group of necromancers, sea serpents and other pirate fleets in the waters of Songfeng Island.
In the end, they successfully rescued some hostages and captured the Iron Pimple and the Love Triangle.
Due to limited time, Ice Owl did not find out the performance of the Dragon Snake Mercenary Group on Snake Island.
But this does not prevent Fujituro from greatly improving his evaluation of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
"These guys are brave and good at fighting. After the battle on Eye Island, they actively pursued them and were not afraid of fighting with the necromancers."
"Although the captain's dragon suit is silver-level, his physical fitness is extremely good. He can actually confront a gold-level man head-on. He can be regarded as a quasi-gold and should not be underestimated."
Fujituro couldn't help but become vigilant.
Two pieces of information successively made him fully aware of the strength of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group.
He couldn't help but secretly warn himself: "Don't underestimate the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group. When helping the Ice Owl retrieve the giant intelligence potion, you must pay attention to your methods and don't go too far."
The Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group did not want to go to war with the Bayonet Gang, and neither did Fujituro.
Although, the Bayonet Gang's gang strength is obviously superior to that of the other party.
But if the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group were angered, the Bayonet Gang would also suffer heavy casualties.
"How to deal with this matter?" Fujituro fell into thinking.
The two methods of negotiation and transaction were first abandoned by Fujituro.
Although these two methods did hope to achieve the purpose of recovering the potion, Fujituro knew that he could not do this.
His status and identity restricted many of his choices.
He is not an ordinary person, he is the leader of the Bayonet Gang. If he does this, it will be equivalent to the Bayonet Gang bowing to a small outside mercenary group. How will this make other people think?
It would be too bad if the Bayonet Gang were thought to be weak and pushable.
For gangs, their reputation is very important.
Only by showing one's strength at all times, making people fearful, and collecting protection fees, etc., can things go smoothly.
"The conflict between the two parties occurred at the store of the Secret Medicine Branch. News about this conflict will definitely spread more widely in the next few days."
"For now, there must be many caring people who are quietly waiting for the reaction of Ice Owl and the Bayonet Gang."
Fujituro understood the situation very well.
The Bayonet Gang must not only recover the potion, but also teach the other party a lesson. Only in this way can they be qualified.
"The most direct way is to steal it."
"The ships of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group are all docked at the dock. After a conflict, they will definitely be more vigilant."
"The dock is easily permeable, but the key is the mage tower."
"The gold-level mage tower monitors every place in Snowbird Port around the clock, and the dock where ships are parked is a key area of monitoring."
"If you want the Mage Tower to turn a blind eye, you have to bribe. This is a lot of money!"
"Besides that, you also need to get a favor."
Thinking of this, Fujituro couldn't help but shook his head.
This method is not good and costs too much.
His mind changed and he thought of another method: "Then find an opportunity to kidnap important members of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group. Then negotiate with the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group and ask them to exchange the giant intelligence potion for the hostages."
Fujituro started to make arrangements, but his subordinates looked embarrassed and reported to him: "Sir, the leader of the gang, the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group has restrained all members since they entered the port, and almost never left home. Yesterday, only a few of them
Several of the leaders got off the ship and took action. If these people don't come out, we won't find a good opportunity to kidnap them."
Fujituro was surprised: "Oh? Did they choose to do this?"
He immediately sneered: "This is a stupid move. As time goes by, these mercenaries will make a noise, and may even start a riot."
"But..." The sneer on Fujituro's face gradually subsided, and he felt that he was in trouble.
He didn't think the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group could restrain the mercenaries for a long time.
Under normal circumstances, Fujituro does not need to take action. He only needs to wait and see what happens and wait for the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group to get into chaos.
But the problem is that Fujituro cannot be delayed.
The intelligence potion is now in the hands of the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group. When Ice Owl asked for help, he also clearly pointed out the issue of time.
The longer the delay, the higher the possibility that the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group will use this potion.
By that time, even if the Dragon and Lion Mercenary Group surrendered, but had already used the potion, then the bayonet helped to survive for a long time, but the original purpose was not achieved, then wouldn't it be a waste of effort.
