Chapter 690 Whereabouts of Arms
"Old Ba, where and when did you take these photos?"

After seeing the photo Zhang Bao took out, Bai Zhentian was also moved. He grabbed Zhang Bao and said, "Where is this ship now? Old Ba, I'm here for it..."

The sale of weapons to the Golden Triangle was initiated by Bai Zhentian at the beginning, but he never expected that the big drug lord Kun Sha actually surrendered to the government army, resulting in a state of no one accepting this batch of goods.

Although Hongmen lost hundreds of millions of dollars, some people made a lot of sense with this incident. Bai Zhentian also wanted to find the ammunition as soon as possible to calm down the discordant voices in Hongmen.

"Brother Bai, I'm afraid you won't be able to find this boat." Seeing Bai Zhentian's anxious look, Zhang Bao had a strange look on his face, and there seemed to be fear in his eyes.

"Huh? How do you say that?"

Bai Zhentian calmed down, and said, "Could it be that this ship has sunk to the bottom of the sea? Even if it does sink, I will find a way to salvage it..."

For Bai Zhentian, he just needed the whereabouts of the ship. If it was a natural or man-made disaster that caused the ship to sink, those criticisms against him would naturally disappear.

"Boss Bai, I guess you won't be able to salvage this boat." Zhang Bao smiled wryly, took out a few more photos, and said, "Look for yourself..."

"Huh? What is this?" Bai Zhentian took the photo handed over by Zhang Bao, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, and quickly flipped through it again, his face gradually revealed a serious expression.

"Brother Bai, what's the matter?" Seeing the change in Bai Zhentian's expression, Qin Feng asked.

"Old Ba, are these photos real?" Bai Zhentian didn't answer Qin Feng's words, but looked at Zhang Bao.

"of course it's true……"

Zhang Bao nodded and said, "There is a place to develop photos on the ship. I developed these photos by myself, but compared with the scene at that time, this photo can only express what happened..."

"This...how is this possible?" Bai Zhentian showed a look of horror on his face, and handed the photo to Qin Feng casually.

"This...what's the matter?"

After receiving those photos, Qin Feng was also taken aback, because in the top photo, there was a huge vortex on the sea surface, and on the edge of the vortex, there was a cargo ship with the American flag .

Looking further down, the freighter was swallowed by the vortex. Zhang Bao's capture skills were very good, and the whole process was very complete.

Looking at the photos in Qin Feng's hand, Zhang Bao said, "These photos were taken by my people climbing to the top of the sail. It was a little far away at that time, so it can only be taken like this."

"Could it be a tornado?" Qin Feng raised his head and looked at Zhang Bao.

"It wasn't a tornado, the weather was very nice that day."

Recalling the situation at that time, the voice of the daring Zhang Bao trembled a little. It was the first time he saw such a strange thing in the sea for more than 20 years.

"Old Ba, tell me about the details at that time..." Bai Zhentian took out a box of cigars and handed one to Zhang Bao.

"Okay, here's the thing..."

Zhang Bao took a deep breath, took the cigar cutter that Bai Zhentian handed over again, after cutting the cigar, bit it in his mouth and lit the fire, and began to tell the story of the incident.

It turned out that after Zhang Bao searched for the wealth of his ancestors and found nothing, he turned his idea to the passing cargo ship. Among other things, he was running out of fuel on this ship and urgently needed to replenish it.

After working as a pirate for so many years, Zhang Bao could see the value of the ship at a glance. After observing the ship for a few days, he settled on a large freighter with a displacement of about [-] tons.

High-tonnage freighters are often not very fast, and it takes several days to pass through the entire Strait of Malacca.

This gave Zhang Bao and the others enough time to prepare and do all kinds of work before starting. The first photo he showed Bai Zhentian was taken at that time.

At that time, Zhang Bao chose to strike at dawn, the time when the people on board were most relaxed. At around three in the morning, Zhang Bao's fishing boat gradually approached the freighter.

But what Zhang Bao didn't expect was that when he was three or four nautical miles away from the freighter, the originally calm sea ahead suddenly turned into a stormy sea.

What's even more strange is that those big waves as high as 30 meters were only surrounded by a nautical mile or two around the freighter, while the sea area where his fishing boat was located was still calm.

Zhang Bao's ship couldn't withstand this kind of storm at all. He quickly ordered the ship to retreat and observed the situation of the freighter in front of him from a distance.

Since the sky had gradually brightened at that time, Zhang Bao and others, who had retreated four or five nautical miles away, could even clearly see the terrified faces running and calling on the freighter through the binoculars.

Then a shocking thing happened. It seemed that there was an invisible force pulling those waves to form an incomparably huge vortex. According to Zhang Bao, the vortex was as big as two or three nautical miles.

The [-]-ton freighter seemed so small in the middle of the vortex. Just a few minutes after the vortex formed, the freighter spun and disappeared at the bottom of the vortex.

At that time, Zhang Bao's boat had retreated another seven or eight nautical miles. Seeing this scene, everyone on the boat turned pale with fright.

You must know that the people on this ship are all bold and desperadoes. After staying at sea for so many years, it is not uncommon for them to see big waves tens of meters high. As for typhoons, they are even more used to it.

But they have never seen or even heard of such a weird local vortex in the sea area. The scene is like a big hand pulling the freighter to the bottom of the sea.

After the vortex disappeared, the sea area became calm again. The big waves of more than ten meters just now disappeared, but there was no trace of the freighter on the sea.

After such a strange thing happened, Zhang Bao and others didn't dare to stay in that sea area for a long time anymore, so they sailed to an uninhabited island for a few days, and they also needed to adjust their psychology.

However, the problem of supplies was still unsolved. After resting for a week, Zhang Bao and others set sail again to replenish the oil and daily necessities on board.

Qin Feng and others already knew what happened next, but Zhang Bao, who was almost at the end of his life, happened to take a fancy to Bai Zhentian's super cruise ship, just in response to the old saying that the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple.

"Boss Bai, you can't find this ship."

Recalling what happened half a month ago, Zhang Bao still had lingering fears, and said: "After the incident, I sent a speedboat to that place to have a look, let alone the boat, I couldn't even find a piece of paper..."

"Old Ba, there was no sign at all? A whirlpool appeared directly on the surface of the sea?"

Bai Zhentian asked solemnly, he had also been a pirate for several years, but he had never heard of such a strange thing, if it wasn't for the photo in his hand to prove it, he would have spit on Zhang Bao long ago.

"Well, there is no sign..." Zhang Bao nodded, and said, "And the scope of the vortex is controlled around the freighter, and it was directly swept to the bottom of the sea..."

"Brother Qin, what do you think?" Bai Zhentian frowned, then turned to look at Qin Feng.

"Boss Bai, I live on land. Don't ask me about sea matters." Qin Feng smiled wryly and shook his head. He had never even seen a tornado. How could he know how such a scene was formed?

"Bian Hong, have you heard of such a thing before?"

Bai Zhentian looked at Bian Hong again with some disappointment, maybe these highly educated people could give him a more scientific answer.

"no!"

Bian Hong said bluntly: "I have only heard that tornadoes can take fishing boats and seawater to the sky, then land thousands of kilometers away, and then throw those things onto the land..."

The United States is a country prone to typhoons, and some people often make some on-site videos and post them on the Internet.

Bian Hong had seen a video before, which was filmed by a Florida netizen who took great risks and drove a car following a hurricane.

In that video, the hurricane kept rolling houses and trees into the sky, and then kept swallowing some things out, including a boat and countless fish.

"Damn, what a hell, is there a tsunami under the sea?"

Bai Zhentian scratched his hair in distress. In fact, with these photos, he was able to explain to those who questioned him, but he couldn't figure out what happened, and Bai Zhentian felt a little sorry for the crew members who were swallowed by the sea.

"It can't be a tsunami..."

Bettina interjected: "The wave speed of the tsunami is as high as 700-800 kilometers per hour. It can cross the ocean in a few hours, and the wavelength can reach hundreds of kilometers. If it is a tsunami, this fishing boat will definitely not be safe... "

Tsunamis are usually destructive waves produced by submarine earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, submarine landslides or weather changes, which are far more harmful than hurricanes. If a tsunami really occurs, even the coastal countries will suffer.

"What the hell is going on then?"

Encountering this kind of thing, Bai Zhentian is really helpless. Although human beings conquered the sky and went to the moon, there are still too many unknowns about the ocean.

Seeing Bai Zhentian's frown, Bian Hong said, "Uncle Bai, how about...I'll go back and check online to see if there are any relevant reports?"

"Okay, contact the people at the US Weather Bureau and send these photos to them for research."

Bai Zhentian nodded helplessly, looked at Zhang Bao and said, "Old Ba, your people don't have documents, so just stay on my boat. I'll find someone to take over this boat. Let's go to the sea where the accident happened to take a look first... "

"Brother, I listen to you."

Zhang Bao knows that some sea areas will be patrolled by coast guards, and there is nothing wrong with them on the high seas, but if they enter the sea areas of other countries, they may be in trouble.
