In other words, Hurricane Group was feared because it had the greatest say in war.

  Gong Jie’s gaze was profound as he looked at Youyou and smiled. “Youyou, Uncle is looking at you in a new light.”


  “Likewise.”


  Gong Jie suddenly changed the topic. “However, when it comes to ambition, you’re ahead of me. Up until now, your ‘Airspace Domination Theory’ is the craziest plan I’ve ever seen.”


  “The original intention of my ‘Deva Eye’ project is to maintain world peace.

  “Oh? How do you know that once the ‘Deva Eye’ project is successfully developed, world peace will be achieved?” Gong Jie paused for a moment before he continued, “Human beings have an unsatiable desire to want more. Mankind has a long history of war. The ambitions of human beings will never be satisfied. In the past, the ancient wars were to seize power. Now, it’s to seize resources. The reason why there are constant wars in Africa and the Middle East is because of the rich mineral reserves, oil, and gas.”


  “Human ambition is indeed limitless. Even if the Earth is destroyed, the sky will still exist.” Youyou crossed his arms and smiled. “The rivers will dry up and the land will crack, but the vast sky will never be destroyed. Once you control the sky, you will truly control the world. Whoever dominates the air first will gain the ability to dominate the world. By then, world peace will no longer be a matter of who has the final say.”


  Gong Jie looked at him. The child in front of him was as cute as cute as button. His pink cheeks were like superior jade.

  It was hard to imagine that such words would come from such a child.

  It was worth rejoicing that such a child was his nephew. Otherwise, it would be hard to imagine just how terrifying it would be, to have such a person as an enemy.

  The journey at sea was longer than the flight. The freighter had to stop at the port of Vidoman midway to deliver a batch of orders before heading to Hurricane headquarters.

  However, it was the first time the boy had been on a freighter, so he was curious about everything on board.

  Gong Jie also told him interesting stories that happened at sea when they were escorting the delivery of firearms.

  “One time, we passed by the Somali Straits and encountered a group of reckless bandits. They surrounded us and intercepted us. They seized our cargo ship and forced their way onboard.”


  Youyou was stunned when he heard that. “These pirates are really so daring as to hijack Hurricane Group’s ship?”


  “Our flag wasn’t on the mast on that day.”


  Generally speaking, Hurricane Group’s logo would be hung on the freighter. Even the boldest pirates would not dare to act recklessly.

  It was only by an unfortunate coincidence on that day that the flag was blown away by the sea breeze. When the pirates saw such a huge ship, they had evil intentions.

  The Somali pirates were most notorious at sea.

  This was a group of criminals who specialized in robbing ships from other countries. As Somalia’s civil war broke out, the pirates were more often out and about in the Aden Bay area. There were frequent hijacks and even violent killing of crew members. Among them, the few most notorious teams were the Bontran Guards and Melka.

  Youyou also knew a little about Somalia’s evil deeds.

  Somalia was one of the least developed countries in the world. Its industrial base and economy were both weak. The war served only to further worsen its economic decline.

  Somali pirates is common knowledge among seafarers, however Aden Bay was often an unavoidable leg of many routes.
