A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

The Bahamas is an island nation in the Atlantic Ocean, located southeast of Florida, in the tropics.

This country consists of more than 700 islands, with abundant coral reefs all around. It boasts rich biodiversity, azure seas and skies, and a beautiful environment, making it a great place for vacations and tourism... but only in the wealthy areas, of course.

A private jet slowly landed on the runway, and at the cabin door, a flight attendant greeted everyone with a smile.

"Welcome, welcome to the Bahamas, welcome to paradise on earth."

"Wow, this is the Bahamas?" Helen stepped out of the cabin with her luggage, the clear blue sky and incredibly fresh air making her feel refreshed.

“I like it here. There aren’t so many people,” Gwen’s little brother said. “There aren’t so many cars and buildings either. It’s so comfortable.”

"It's alright, I've been here before." George glanced around and said casually, "Compared to New York, I still prefer it."

“Oh? Really? This might be a better place for fishing than New York,” Helen joked.

Cao Gui and Gwen stepped off the plane together: "We've prepared the vehicle and the house, let's go!"

At that moment, the roar of airplanes filled the sky again. The control tower directed the plane to land on another runway. Obadiah, arm in arm with a blonde, blue-eyed, perfectly proportioned supermodel, stepped off the plane.

"Ah, this place is so comfortable."

Chapter 176 Local Fish Bully Outsider Fishermen

In the morning, the bright sunshine shone on the golden sand, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the blue sky was vast, and the waves crashed against the beach.

Wow!

On the sea, two eleven or twelve-year-old kids were speeding along on jet skis, deliberately crashing into the waves.

"Don't go too far, understand?" Helen's voice came from the walkie-talkie on the front of the motorboat, interrupting the two boys' excitement.

"Okay, got it."

On the beach, Gwen and Helen were enjoying a sunbath in their one-piece swimsuits. It was still morning, and although the sunlight was strong, it wasn't intense, and it felt warm on their skin.

They actually wanted to wear bikinis, but with their two younger brothers with them, the mother and daughter abandoned the idea and wore very conservative one-piece swimsuits instead.

On the rocks not far away, Cao Gui and George sat side by side, their fishing rods extending out from the rocks and the fishing lines dangling below the sea surface.

“Hmm… I really don’t know why your father likes fishing so much.” Helen took a sip of her drink and looked at her son-in-law on the rocks. “Gwen, you should keep Cao away from George. Fishing is a bad hobby.”

"No, Mom." Gwen covered her mouth and giggled, "Dad is like this because he can't catch fish. Cao is different from Dad. He can catch fish."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Gui suddenly jerked his fishing rod from the reef, and with a splash, a mudskipper the size of a palm was pulled out of the water.

"See, I told you so!" Gwen smiled smugly.

“Your dad is so pitiful,” Helen laughed, unsurprised. George had been fishing for fish before, and this wasn’t the first or second time he’d done it.

"Oh dear, I caught another fish." Cao Gui smiled shyly, feeling slightly ashamed.

George, his face dark, had gone fishing before dawn, but hadn't caught a single fish yet.

"Damn it, I'm not fishing here anymore!" George huffed and left. "The fish here just bully outsiders!"

With that, she angrily grabbed her fishing rod and went to find a new fishing spot.

Cao Gui shrugged, looking helpless, and didn't follow. To be honest, he didn't know what was going on either. The two fishing rods were less than a meter apart, but the rod just wouldn't bite George's hook.

On the contrary, Cao Gui's fishing hooks are often bitten. Is it because fish are naturally averse to anglers?

Scratching his head, unable to understand the great creatures that are fishermen, Cao Gui also gave up fishing as a form of entertainment.

"Cao, come down and dive with us!" The two little brothers waved from below, calling for Cao to come down.

"Here I am!" Cao Gui took off his clothes and jumped into the water.

"Cao, let's go treasure hunting!"

"Huh?" Cao Gui was completely bewildered. What was this treasure hunt all about?

"That's right, treasure hunting! There must be treasure in the ocean!"

“I checked before I came. There’s a legend that a ship called the ‘Westwind’ sank near the Bahamas and hasn’t been found yet. We’re sure we can find it!”

Cao Gui's lips twitched. It turned out that these two little brats were still thinking about the treasure hunt.

The two little boys were fascinated by his and Gwen's treasure hunt last time, but after so much time had passed, Cao Gui thought they had forgotten about it. Unexpectedly, they still remembered it.

"bring it on!"

"Come on!"

Without saying a word, the two pulled Cao Gui and dived into the sea.

……

In the seaside villa on the other side, Obadiah slowly got out of bed and couldn't help but rub his lower back.

"Sigh, I'm really getting old..." He staggered into the living room, took out his medicine, and swallowed it with water.

"Obadai, you've started taking your medication?" A strange laugh rang out. On the sofa in the living room sat a person completely covered in a suit, not an inch of skin showing.

“I’m not like a monster like you, I’m a normal person.” Obadiah ignored his taunts and retorted.

"Hehehe, I can tell how jealous you are of me." Despite being called a monster, the man was not angry at all, but rather smug.

"Alright, Kiel, let's get down to business."

Obadiah's face darkened. To be honest, he was indeed envious of the other party's ability to control anyone, which was an absolute dream for him as a big capitalist.

The man called Kiel waved his hand, signaling him to continue. Why did he have to come to the Bahamas to say something he couldn't say in the United States?

“Help me take down Tony Stark!” Obadiah said.

"That's it?" Kiel looked at him like he was an idiot. "Why make such a simple thing so complicated?"

"Simple my foot! His identity... never mind, let's not talk about that." Obadiah lowered his head slightly.

"In short, he has a lot of bodyguards around him, so you have to be very careful. It would be best to create the illusion of an accident."

“That’s easy,” Kiel laughed. “I can just manipulate the people around him to take him out. It’s a piece of cake.”

Obadiah nodded: "Remember, leave America immediately after this is over, including South America."

Seeing Obadiah's expression, Kiel's heart skipped a beat: "The people around Tony Stark aren't ordinary people?"

“They are ordinary people, without your amazing abilities, but they are all at the pinnacle of human potential. You need to be careful,” Obadiah said.

"Is that the Land and Resources Bureau protecting him?"

Kiel frowned and asked. As a supervillain, he knew about this organization; if it weren't for his abilities, he would already be dead.

“Looks like we need to think of another way…” said the man named Kiel. No wonder Obadiah was so serious; it turned out to be this difficult.

“Obi, you owe me one,” Kiel said.

“I understand.” Obadiah smiled and pulled out a list and information: “Famous athletic girls in New York, very pretty.”

As he spoke, he turned on the projector in the living room and projected photos of the girls.

Kiel glanced at it and slowly nodded: "Not bad."

"To be honest, why not just use money?" Obadiah frowned. "I really don't understand what you're thinking."

"Heh, you don't understand." Kiel didn't explain, picked up the list and documents, and left.

……

On the sea.

"Whoa... Pfft..."

Cao Gui surfaced and spat out seawater. Unlike his two younger brothers who were wearing diving equipment, he was simply naked diving (not naked, but without diving equipment). Although his physical condition could handle it, he couldn't be happy doing useless work with the two little kids.

"Cao, what are you doing up here? We haven't found anything yet!"

"That's why we came up here—because we couldn't find anything," Cao Gui said irritably.

“I found it, this one.” He took out a black stone.

Just then, another head popped up, pointing to the distance over the sea: "Guys, I saw something flashing over there, let's go check it out!"

"go!"

"Wait!" Cao Gui grabbed them. "That's the deep sea area, you can't go there!"

"Cao, don't do that, we can swim, it'll be fine!" With that, the two of them were about to dive into the water.

duang! duang!

"Ouch...it hurts, it hurts..." The two covered their heads and splashed around in the water.

"Now, go back!" Cao Gui snorted, wanting to see who would dare disobey.

"But there really is something flashing over there," the little boy said, looking aggrieved.

Cao Gui dived into the sea and saw something flashing, somewhat like... some kind of signal light.

"Let's go take a look."

This time, Cao Gui didn't stop them.

Chapter 177 Another Treasure Hunt?

Cao Gui led the two of them to the source of the light, only to find that it was a tattered life jacket. Not far away, there was a huge transport plane lying on the seabed, with some wreckage floating around it.

Cao Gui frowned, and the three of them exchanged glances before heading to the cockpit. Inside was the pilot's body. They then went into the cockpit, where some small boxes wrapped in plastic were floating.

The two younger brothers, without changing their expressions, followed Cao Gui into the cabin. Like Gwen, they had been taken to the forensic lab by their father and had seen quite a bit of the world, so they weren't too afraid of these corpses.

Cao Gui and his two companions swam into the transport cabin and found it filled with small plastic packages; the entire cabin was covered in them.

It seemed that this plane was specifically designed to transport small packages like this. Cao Gui made a gesture, grabbed a plastic package, and then led the two little kids back to the beach.

On the beach, a mother and daughter were basking in the sun when, in the blink of an eye, their three males disappeared, causing them to become somewhat anxious.

"Damn it, those bastards, how did they disappear in the blink of an eye?" Helen gritted her teeth and said angrily, especially that fisherman... no, that air force guy, she wasn't letting him into the room tonight!

“Mom, it’s okay,” Gwen comforted her. “They were just playing around a bit too much…wait?”
