The white man who had been sitting silently on the side, wearing a pair of glasses that looked like they had broken their legs several times, had a deep look in his eyes.
After hearing what the bearded white man said, he used his hand to push his glasses, which seemed like they would fall off at any moment, back up his nose.
The voice was a little hoarse:
“As far as I know, they have only started to slowly move towards the dock in the past two days!
If they really wanted to intercept the next group of newcomers arriving on the island, why did they have to wait a few days before going there? ”
After listening to the skinny man named Nathan, the bearded white man pondered for a while before saying:
"You mean, their goal isn't to snatch away the next batch of newcomers coming to the island?
So what are they doing?
You don't want to steal the boat and leave, do you? ”
...
...
Without waiting for anyone to answer, he shook his head to deny the answer.
“No, they were not exiled to the island.
At first, they were said to have been deported, and even if they hijacked the ship, they could not return to Brazil.
Besides, there were machine guns on the ship transporting the prisoners, so it would be impossible for them to seize the ship. ”
Everyone fell into deep thought.
This is a young black man who said:
“I heard that they have supporters in Brazil, so they were not deported directly, but were sent to the island for temporary resettlement.
Once the storm has passed, they will be brought back to Brazil.
Could it be that the rumors have passed now?
Will someone come to pick them up soon? ”
People around began to whisper to each other.
A black man with a face full of flesh was a little overwhelmed by everyone's discussions. He stood up from the tree stump he was sitting on and said:
"What's there to discuss? No matter what the purpose of those dwarfs is,
We can just drive them away and occupy the dock, and any good things that come will be ours. ”
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard this.
They all stood up and echoed:
"Yes! Boss,
We will just occupy the dock and no matter what they want to do, they will have to involve us in it. ”
The skinny middle-aged white man named Nathan also smiled and said after hearing what the black man said:
“This is also a simple and direct approach.
However, there are far more of these dwarfs than us.
If we compete with them for the dock, there might be considerable casualties!
Should we invite White-crowned Sparrow and the others to join us? ”
When the bearded boss heard Nathan's words, he waved his hand with some disdain and said:
"What's the point of calling on those political prisoners? They're just talking nonsense.
If those former soldiers hadn't still had some fighting ability, I would have swallowed them up long ago. ”
Others also started to shout!
"That's right, these people are totally useless, if there are any benefits, we have to share them.
It would be better if we took action ourselves. ”
The skinny middle-aged white man waited until everyone had expressed their opinions before he coughed twice and said:
“Ahem, ahem, I know they don’t have much fighting power.
But we don’t have as many people as the dwarfs. If there are too many casualties, will the white-headed old man and his gang take advantage of us? ”
Upon hearing this, the bearded boss was stunned, and then he reacted immediately.
This was because they were afraid that they would both suffer losses in the fight with the Japanese and that the political prisoners led by Bai Tou Weng would take advantage of them.
He laughed loudly, patted Nathan's shoulder and said:
"Haha... you are really smart, it's worth reading this book.
That’s right, we can’t let the White-headed Mang’s gang get the upper hand, we must bring them along with us.
Let’s go and meet the white-crowned crane and the others now. ”
In fact, there are a total of three forces in the Fernando de Noronha Islands.
This bearded man was originally the most powerful group, with as many as six or seven hundred people.
They are all composed of some serious criminals. These people are brave and fierce, and most of them were exiled to the island because of murder cases.
The other group was the one he called the White-headed Man, which was composed of exiled political prisoners.
Because some of the political prisoners were former military officers, their fighting capacity was not weak, but their numbers were small, only two or three hundred people.
Finally, there are the largest number of people, the Japanese.
A group of people rushed into the territory of the white-headed old man in a mighty manner.
Many people on Bai Tou Weng's side were educated intellectuals. After hearing the purpose of the crowd's visit, they all shook their heads.
Clay Hope, also known as Whitehead, is an old white man with completely white hair. His nickname comes from his snow-white hair.
Looking at the crowd coming aggressively, Clay Hope smiled gently and said:
“Folke Pinto I am old and not as aggressive as you youngsters.
Since you find it unacceptable to let the Japanese occupy the dock, you can just go to war with them directly.
We won't participate. ”
After saying that, he glanced at Nathan who was wearing glasses and smiled:
"Don't worry, no matter whether we win or lose, we will not take advantage of others."
There seemed to be something hidden in that smile.
After hearing what he said, the bearded white boss Falk Pinto said nonchalantly:
“Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Hope, we are not worried that you will take advantage of others.
Instead, he thought that someone might come to pick up these Japanese. This was a rare opportunity. Didn't Mr. Hope want to return to Brazil? ”
The white-headed Clay Hope smiled and said unmoved:
“Falk Pinto, what do you think if someone really wants to come and take the Japanese away?
Will the other party allow you to board the ship just because you occupy the dock?
Aren't you afraid of facing the machine gun fire on the ship? ”
These words made the bearded Folke Pinto's face change drastically, that's right! If this is true, then wouldn't occupying the dock be tantamount to seeking death?
The faces of the people following the bearded man also changed drastically.
With their bare hands, they dared not face the machine gun fire.
Nathan, the skinny man with glasses standing next to the bearded man, didn't expect that Clay Hope's words would destroy the morale of their team.
His eyes moved, he coughed twice and said:
“Mr. Hope, these are some of our guesses.
You said, is it possible that someone is trying to transport supplies to the island?
Was the purpose of the Japanese occupying the dock to wait to receive supplies? ”
Hearing this, the people on the side of the bearded Folke Pinto's side all had shining eyes and became agitated.
Even on the side of the white-crowned crane Clay Hope, many people began to get restless.
Clay Hope glanced around, taking in everyone's reactions.
He once again focused his gaze on the skinny man with glasses named Nathan, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and continued calmly:
"Then why do you think that the people transporting the supplies have no weapons to protect them?"
Nathan was not flustered and continued to smile:
“Then we can also rob them of supplies on their way back!
The people who are transporting the goods can't possibly deliver them all the way to their base! ”
The conversation between the two people aroused the enthusiasm of everyone around them.
The people who had originally followed the bearded Folke Pinto now went straight to the dock and fought with the Japanese to seize ownership of the dock.
But Clay Hope broke everyone's illusions with just a few words.
But Nathan, the skinny man with glasses, gave them hope again.
You have to know that on this island where prisoners are exiled, they can only live a life similar to that of primitive people.
They are very eager for the materials of civilized society.
Everyone knows these Japanese are different from them.
They were not forced into exile, but chose to develop on the island on their own initiative.
They can have contact with the outside world.
In other words, will the outside world send them a batch of supplies every once in a while?
No one dares to say that there is no such possibility.
Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, they will not give up the opportunity to steal supplies.
As for the Japanese being three times their number, that was just a small matter.
After all, there are old, weak, women and children among the Japanese.
However, most of them are young and middle-aged.
What’s even more hateful is that there were women among those Japanese.
This is a fatal attraction for the prisoners on the island.
It is precisely because of this situation that the conflicts between the two groups on the island and the Japanese are very deep.
Conflicts break out between the two sides from time to time.
But because the strength of the middle-aged men on both sides was not much different, everyone remained restrained.
But a larger-scale conflict is only a matter of time.
So, when Nathan said that the Japanese would return to their base to rob supplies, almost everyone started to get agitated.
"Yeah, we robbed these little Japanese guys."
"I'm going to steal their women."
"Hahaha...yes, yes, robbing women."
"That's right, we want to steal supplies and women."
At first there were only a few people shouting loudly, and gradually more and more people began to shout along.
The shouts became louder and more uniform.
"Seize the supplies! Seize the women!"
"Seize the supplies! Seize the women!"
As the crowd shouted, Ryan Hope's face became uglier and uglier.
His eyes were fixed on Nathan, the skinny man with glasses who started the trouble.
"Aren't you afraid that there might be weapons among the supplies they're transporting?"
Nathan glanced at the white-headed Ryan Hope sarcastically and laughed:
"If they have weapons, we should rob them. Otherwise, do you think we can survive if they have weapons?"
This time, even the middle-aged man who had been standing behind Ryan Hope began to look ugly.
He whispered into Ryan Hope's ear:
“Nathan is right, sir.
If the other party really transports weapons to the island, we will have to snatch them.
Otherwise, we might become slaves of the Japanese. ”
As the leader of the political prisoners on the island, White-headed Ryan Hope did not want to have a fierce conflict with the Japanese on the island.
In fact, he would be very happy to see the bearded Folke Pinto and his gang of barbarians and the Japanese dwarfs fight to a mutual defeat.
Therefore, he always restrained the people on his side from having direct conflicts with the Japanese.
Unexpectedly, this time the Japanese suddenly occupied the dock.
This made the bearded guy and his gang start to get restless.
And this damn Nathan took the opportunity to incite his people.
In fact, this skinny man with glasses named Nathan was also one of their political prisoners.
It can even be said that he is his important assistant and right-hand man.
But after being exiled to this small island, everyone began to live a precarious life and had a very hard time.
They were suppressed and bullied by serious criminals everywhere.
Nathan is thin and has poor physical fitness, so he can't do any heavy physical work.
Often bullied by serious criminals.
At that time, Nathan called on all political prisoners to unite and fight against the oppression of these serious criminals.
But Ryan Hope at that time had just suffered the biggest blow in his life and was devastated, so he had no such worries at all.
Nathan did not have such great prestige among the political prisoners and was unable to organize them.
It was not known when Nathan got together with Falk Pinto, a bearded criminal who was one of the most serious criminals.
Then, suddenly one day, the bearded Folke Pinto led his men to overthrow the original leader and established a new force.
Nathan became like a counselor to the other party.
For some unknown reason, Folke Pinto did not bring these political prisoners under his command.
Instead, they were automatically excluded from the new organization.
They were forced to choose to stick together again, and the most prestigious Ryan Hope naturally became the leader of the political prisoners.
