CHAPTER 1367 THE FISH IS ON THE HOOK
The cruise ship floated lazily down the Goldensand River as it headed towards Bossania City.
On it, Joe Langer and the rest were kneeling down on the deck as they suffered odd glances from the passersby.
Meanwhile, Nathan was engaged in a casual conversation with Maurice Holland.
When he asked Maurice how was his family doing, he found out that he lived a fulfilled life even though they were poor.
Moreover, Maurice's daughter, Candice Holland, was engaged to the son of the Lillard family, Keller Lillard, who was somewhat famous in Bossania, and they were about to hold their wedding ceremony soon.
Nathan exclaimed, "Wow, Wyatt's sister is about to get married soon. If he could hear us from above, he would definitely be overjoyed."
He then instructed Colin in a low voice, "Order someone to send a gift to the
Lillard family."
Colin knew that Nathan wanted to gift the Lillard family something for Candice's sake to show his admiration for her.
Furthermore, he wanted to send a message to the Lillard family so that they wouldn't mistreat her.
Colin answered, "Alright. I'll make the phone call now."
As Colin was dismissed, one of the Elite Eight suddenly approached Nathan and reported in a low voice, "General, there's a small boat with an old fisherman in the middle of the river. We have a © content.
feeling that they are not ordinary folks'."
Nathan frowned slightly. "Let's go and check it out!”
Nathan bade farewell to Maurice, before heading towards the bow of the boat with the Elite Eight.
Sure enough, there was an old fisherman fishing in the middle of the sea on a dingy boat.
Fishing should be leisure, but Nathan could sense a strong and unusual murderous aura from the fisherman.
Nathan's lips curled upwards slightly. "Haha. It seems like someone doesn't want me back in the North, so they sent someone powerful to wait for me here."
The Elite Eight was alarmed when Nathan said that, and they realized that something was wrong with the fisherman, so they stood on high alert.
Nathan had guessed it correctly: something was wrong with the fisherman.
He was Ether, a powerful figure sent by the King of the North, and he was here because he received orders to kill Nathan.
Ether sat calmly on the boat holding a fishing rod as he squinted his eyes while the cruise ship floated slowly towards him.
The moment he saw Nathan, who was on the bow of the ship, he immediately recognized him as his target.
He smirked and exclaimed, "The fish is on the hook!”
Just as he had finished speaking, he swung his fishing rod suddenly and a loud and jarring Swoosh could be heard.
Ether's fishing rod conjured up a massive whirlpool in the middle of the serene river, and the cruise ship was caught it in.
The ship shook violently, and the passengers started to shriek in fear as they were thrown left and right.
Ether's small boat was caught in the whirlpool as well, and the moment it approached the cruise ship, Ether raised his left hand and drove a forceful punch towards the ship.
Wham!
A boom as loud as thunder pierced through the air in an instant!
The cruise ship's hull was made of a very tough metal, but despite that, a large hole appeared in it from Ether's punch.
Using the shockwave from the recoil, Ether and his boat launched away from the ship by several tens of meters.
He stood tall on the boat and smiled derisively as he watched water started gushing into the ship.
The cruise ship sank slowly, and the passengers were terrified.
Meanwhile, Nathan commanded Colin and the Elite Eight, "We're about to sink. Help the crew who can swim to rescue the passengers, and I'll take care of that guy."
"Yes, sir!"
Ether watched calmly as the cruise ship sank, but he never expected Nathan to leap from it and launch himself towards his small boat like an arrow.
Ether's eyes widened in surprise as he swung the fishing rod in his hands at Nathan.
However, with a casual flick of the wrist, the fishing rod was snapped with a loud Thwack!
