Chapter 566 - On the Sea (2/2)
Patrick raised his eyebrows. ”Do you think they'll make way for us?”
”If they don't,” Kanae lowered her tone. ”We're going to make them!”
Hearing Kanae said those words resolutely, Patrick stared at the young girl with astonishment. Although he had heard about the prowess of Kanae, he never knew that the girl would be this determined. Probably, he should have guessed it since Kanae had become the leader of the strongest group in this city.
Kevin looked at the two of them for a moment. His brain seemed to recall something.
”Uncle, when you propose to have Rei as my fiancée, do you already know that she's Kanae?”
Patrick smirked. ”Of course I know. Why should I take her as my daughter if I don't know about her identity?”
Kevin studied his uncle's expression as his mind worked harder. When his uncle proposed to have Rei as his fiancée, he thought that it was ridiculous. He thought that there was something wrong with his uncle, but right now, he came to understand the real reason.
With Kanae real identity as the descendant of the four big families, there was no doubt that she wouldn't be accepted in the clan. Even if they knew that she had other identities in the underworld, what they cared the most was the noble position. The only way for her to get such a high position instantly was by being adopted by a high ranking member.
For the first time, he felt grateful for his uncle. This would make their journey far smoother.
”I see, thank you, Uncle.”
Patrick raised one of his eyebrows. ”I'm not doing this for an annoying person like you. I'm doing this for my little junior and daughter.”
Kevin ignored his remark as he focused his attention to the sea before him. As the sky turned brighter, he could see the situation far clearer than before. Right away, his eyes turned colder when he saw two large sh.i.p.s were heading towards their way. From the mark on the ship, it was apparent that it belonged to the government.
”Now, this is going to be interesting,” Patrick remarked. ”Do you think you can outdo them, Kevin?”
Kevin pointed to the steer. ”You should drive, Uncle.”
”I can't drive,” Patrick retorted. He stayed in the prison for years. Even after he had gotten out, he didn't spend any time to study driving because he felt that it was a waste of time. All these times, he was busy training to regain his senses again.
Kevin eyed the two sh.i.p.s. They were heading at him at high speed. Based on the size alone, the ship that he rode couldn't be compared. Besides, the maximum speed for this ship was not that high. Ryukalin Clan didn't invest too much for ship, so he knew that this ship's performance was lower than those two.
”What's your plan, Kevin?” Kanae asked. She had stood up and gripped the railing.
”How about jumping ship when we crashed?”
”Father, if you want to die, you should do it yourself. After being exposed to the wind on the sea for a long time, our body grows exhausted. We won't be able to move as well as before*,” Kanae reminded.
”That only for normal people, I'm not affected.”
”Crouch down and bear for the impact. We'll move ship when the two sh.i.p.s crash,” Kevin gave a different order.
Kanae and Patrick looked at each other. They nodded their heads as they watched the ship grow closer.
10 meters
5 meters
3 meters
1 meter
BANG!
The ship crashed.
(A/N): *When staying on the ship and exposed to the wind, it's natural response for the body to grow weary even if the person him/herself doesn't realize it. You may search in Google about this for the complete explanation.
