Volume 4: The Undead Chapter 168: The “Lucky” Prisoners (Part 2)
Ogata had also heard of the name Inamori Masaya.
Masaya Inamori - a fierce general who is trusted by the current general and has the nickname "Tiger Inamori".
Inamori Masa seemed extremely impatient with these sudden discussions and shouted "Silence" again, making the whole audience quiet again.
"I'm going to tell you scum a good news now!"
"Everyone, listen carefully! I won't say what I'm going to say twice!"
"You are very lucky!"
"You who were supposed to spend your whole life in prison or be sentenced to death now have a great opportunity to be pardoned!"
Having said this, Inamori turned around and pointed to the sea behind him.
"See that island?!"
Ogata looked in the direction Inamori pointed.
At the end of the field of vision, there is a large, blurry brown shadow.
"That island is called 'Butterfly Island'!"
"You will be sent to 'Butterfly Island' in a moment!"
"The conditions for obtaining a pardon are simple!"
"After landing on Butterfly Island, as long as you successfully kill three 'cannibal ghosts' or dig up important information related to 'cannibal ghosts', you will be pardoned! Gain freedom!"
"You have seven days!"
"In 7 days, our ship will dock at the south coast of Butterfly Island!"
"Those who successfully kill the cannibal will drag the cannibal's corpse here!"
"Those who have successfully dug up reliable intelligence related to the cannibals, please come back with your information!"
Inamori raised his finger and pointed at his eyes.
"The biggest feature of cannibals is that their eyes are purple! Remember not to make a mistake!"
"That's all I have to say. I wish you good luck in fighting!"
Having said this, Inamori no longer paid attention to the prisoners. He led the guards beside him and walked straight down the balcony, leaving the prisoners' sight.
Although Inamori left, most of the prisoners, including Ogata, have not yet recovered from what Inamori had just said.
Because Inamori just said too many unfamiliar nouns that made it difficult to understand what they meant.
"What is a cannibal ghost..." Ogata muttered in confusion.
Almost all the prisoners looked confused like Ogata.
Just as the prisoners were whispering about topics such as "Is there something wrong with Inamori's brain?", "What is a cannibal?", "Is it true that he can be pardoned?", the soldiers who were originally standing around guarding the prisoners suddenly rushed forward and took each prisoner to the beach not far away.
On the beach not far away, there are hundreds of small boats that can accommodate dozens of people.
…
…
Although Inamori left the prisoners' sight, he did not go far.
Instead, he stood on a high ground near the prisoners, silently watching the prisoners being taken onto the boat one by one.
"...I hope the prisoners who land on the island this time can achieve some results." Inamori murmured softly.
As soon as Inamori's murmur fell, a young general standing behind Inamori echoed:
“The people who came to the island this time are different from those in the past.”
The young general said this as he held up the list of prisoners in his hand.
"There are quite a few experts among this group of prisoners."
"For example - 'The Executioner Ittosai' Ogata Issei."
"And there is also the subordinate of the 'Buddha Enemy' who burned down the temple and stole the treasures a few years ago - 'Flowing Light Hachiman' Mamiya Jiulang."
"Ah, and that 'evil monk' Yichun."
"'Evil Monk' Yichun..." Inamori chewed on the name, then turned his head and cast his gaze on the burly man who stood out among the prisoners.
"That guy must be the 'evil monk' Yichun, right?" Inamori asked.
"That's right." The subordinate behind him immediately replied.
The sturdy man was extremely tall and stood out among the prisoners.
Although he was wearing a loose monk's robe, Inamori could feel the extremely developed muscles underneath the robe.
"...He exudes a dangerous aura all over his body." Looking at the figure of the "evil monk" Yichun, Daosen frowned and said in a deep voice, "Send more people to the ship responsible for escorting the 'evil monk'!"
"yes!"
…
…
Wow! Wow! Wow! Wow !
The waves continued to hit the small boat that Ogata was in.
In addition to Ogata, there were 10 soldiers on the boat who were responsible for escorting Ogata.
Without exception, these 12 soldiers were all wearing helmets and armor, with their swords drawn and bows strung.
Among these 12 soldiers, 4 are cannoneers, and the cannons in their hands are all ready to fire at any time.
If Ogata did anything wrong, these 12 soldiers would immediately cut him into pieces with his hands still tied behind his back.
Just now, after the soldiers escorted the prisoners to the beach, they took the prisoners one by one onto a small boat.
A small boat only carries one prisoner, and there are at least 10 soldiers on board to guard the prisoner.
After each boat was loaded with prisoners and soldiers, it set sail immediately without stopping and headed straight towards Die Island.
The landing place of each boat seems to be different.
At first, Ogata could see several small boats sailing side by side with his ship.
But not long after, the boats that were originally sailing side by side with him began to drift further and further away, and eventually they could not be seen at all.
"Hey." Unable to suppress his curiosity, Ogata asked the soldiers around him, "So the landing place of each boat is different? I thought you would use a big ship to load us all together and then drop us off somewhere on the island."
As soon as Ogata finished speaking, a soldier sitting next to Ogata said softly:
"When we sent the first batch of prisoners to the island, we loaded all the prisoners together on a large ship and dropped them off at a random beach on the island."
"But what happened later forced us to change the way we sent prisoners to the island to the current method of 'taking only one prisoner on a small boat and letting them land at different locations'."
"What happened?" Ogata asked.
"After the first batch of more than 100 prisoners were dropped off on a beach on Die Island, they immediately began to kill each other."
"Some prisoners are not interested in so-called amnesty at all. They are only interested in killing."
"And there happened to be several lunatics of this type among the first group of prisoners who landed on the island ."
"So in less than half a day, the first batch of prisoners were almost wiped out due to infighting."
"So to avoid this happening again, we changed the way we land on the island to what it is now."
The soldier who was kind enough to explain patiently to Ogata paused at this point.
After hesitating for a while, he continued to say to Ogata:
"Hey, let me give you a piece of advice."
"In every batch of prisoners, there are always a few who don't understand what people say and have no interest in being pardoned."
"For people like this, you'd better stay away from them."
"People like this are often crazy people who don't care about their lives."
