Looking out toward the whale-road1️⃣, the boy pirate listened to the captain of the Kyūbiko2️⃣ pirates. "We have done nothing today. No fighting, nobody needs to be broken out of jail... no fighting. I want to do something!" "Yes, Father," the boy, also bored, replied.
"ANSWER ME AS CAPTAIN IN FRONT OF THE REST OF THE CREW!" Captain Kitsune3️⃣ yelled as he had the hundreds of times before. "Everyone knows you are my father, besides no one can hear us, Captain," the captain's son replied. "Anyway," said the captain, very sarcastically. "I have decided that the next time a ship passes by, we shall attack full force. No matter what."
"Shall I give the orders, Captain?" the son of Kitsune questioned. "Yes, Arekusandā4️⃣" "LISTEN UP, KITSUNE! Keep an eye out for the next ship that comes near us. When you see one, alert the captain. Then, get in your attack positions and await your orders! GOT IT?!" Arekusandā ordered.
"YES, SIR!"
