“You?”
Those pirates were taken aback. They turned their astonished gazes on Watson.
If Donoghue were indeed on that giant shark’s back, they would all be doomed if he got closer to them.
Even though Watson was a capable person, he was no match to Donoghue in any way.
“My fellow comrades!”
When the pirates hesitated, Watson hugged his fists and said pretentiously, “I owed my life to Young Master Darby. I have been thinking about how to return his favor for the last two days, so please let me do it.”
Watson checked out the misty sea and said, “Time is ticking. Let’s go check it out soon. If it were Donoghue on that giant shark, then we’ve got trouble ahead of us.” Mmm…
Those pirates no longer had any doubts; they nodded in agreement.
Soon, the small boat was ready. Watson leaped into it without hesitation and maneuvered it toward the misty area of the sea.
He chuckled in his mind again.
Watson might have looked calm, but he was inexplicably excited and elated. ‘Those pirates are so stupid. How easy it was to trick them with just a few words.’
After he passed through the heavy mist area, Watson immediately turned around and rowed toward the far distance. He had decided that he would get past Ambrose’s sight and returned to the mainland on his own.
He did not want anything to do with Donoghue and Ambrose’s fight. He hoped that they would get into a deadly battle.
Swoosh!
However, just as Watson got more than 100 feet away, a huge wave rolled toward him. He was shocked; he shuddered and gasped when he had a good look at it.
The giant shark at the back of the fleet had dived underwater and suddenly appeared before his eyes.
A figure sat cross-legged on the animal.
It was the bald Donoghue, who looked handsome and cold. He had a menacing look on his face.
Donoghue wanted to take advantage of the heavy mist and went close to the pirate fleet. He saw a person get onto a boat, and so he quietly followed him.
“Watson?”
Donoghue stared at Watson and sneered, “Looks like the Tucker Cult Master also took refuge with Darryl’s son and became his follower. Are you here to check me out?”
When Donoghue and Megan worked together, Watson was Megan’s follower, so the two knew each other.
Donoghue spoke casually, but he carried a powerful and intimidating aura. His strong aura was terrifying; it caused Watson to feel breathless.
Gulped!
Watson swallowed his saliva nervously when he felt Donoghue’s terrifying aura. His legs went weak, and he landed on his knees on the boat. He said,
“Donoghue, show me mercy, please. How dare I check up on you? Ambrose arrested me, and now I’m trying to take advantage of the mist to flee. I beg you not to take my life.”
After he met Ambrose and Eira on Coral Island, Watson learned that Rama’s powerful disciple was, in fact, Donoghue, who held the nine continents in awe.
Watson was frightened, and he had no courage to confront someone scary like Donoghue. The person in front of him was a ruthless person who was not afraid of Darryl.
