Changbin had himself wrapped with a thick coat of animal fur but still managed to tremble at the freezing sensation he felt from the cold sea. Still pondering about Gunho, who saved his life, who saved his so-called chin.

Changbin would really miss the contagious smile of the younger, the silly pranks they pull at the crew, the little roleplay they did at their backyard with his older brother. Changbin couldn't help but let out a small chuckle while slipping out a tear from his sharp eyes.

The other group, on the other hand, cannot chuckle or even feel a bit of joy, as they were soaked with blood and jam-packed with agony.

"more alcohol, Soobin-ah!" a voice called out for the Soobin boy, who must be his apprentice. The scene was indeed horrifying as blood gushes out everywhere.

San has his blood leaking at his nose as he had a minor injury at a part of his head. For a person that doesn't have knowledge in medication, Wooyoung bits his nails as he witnesses the cessation or stopping of breathing, occurring on San; with overflowing anxiety. It is normal to experience that for someone with a head injury, Jooyoung concluded at the anxious man.

Jin, the surgeon of Whalien 52 applied medication with the help of Jooyoung and his apprentice, Soobin. Jooyoung gently damped his head with a clean cloth held by trembling fingers. Who would have thought that their escape plan would work with a bit of agony accompanying them, especially for the innocent man named Sannie?

Wooyoung breathed out a deep relief sigh, as soon as Sannie's chest heave at a normal pace, indicating his breathing is now normal. Wooyoung glanced at the cloth wrapped around his wound for a minute before focusing once again on the young man, which surprisingly is older than him.

He experienced so much already. I am deeply sorry to him that I couldn't protect him again this time.

On the other side, Seonghwa was laying peacefully, with his broken left leg hanging, left with no one but the also quiet Yeosang.

"Uncle- Captain RaMon." Hongjoong mentally slapped himself for saying such things to the respected Captain. Actually, reluctant if he should address the uncle with what he usually calls or the title his so-called uncle holds.

He is currently in front of the Navigation room, knocking ever so lightly with the same hesitation he has in calling out the name of his relative. Captain RaMon is now with his intelligent navigator from Daegu-Min Yoongi, planning where to drop the group.

They couldn't keep the eight new passengers, even if they have a big potential to be crewmates, a powerful crew in simple means; is that the Whalien 52 also have powerful enemies, other than that the deal...

Namjoon laughed at the silly action he predicted his nephew would do. Hongjoong took the laugh as a sign of 'come in' of his uncle. The two seniors welcomed the rookie pirate with soft smiles.

Yoongi, the navigator, didn't waste time on chatting or so, placing a bag heavily full of bounty, right in front of the confused rookie. "We will drop you at Gwangju, people say they have the best shipwrights there," Yoongi concluded with his hands resting at his pocket.

"Yoongi concluded that after 7 days from this tomorrow we could drop you off to Gwangju. This bag that I have ready for you is full of bounty for the ship you wanted to sail." Namjoon had his crescents boring at Hongjoong's, smiling to the fullest, showing the deep dimples from his cheek.

Hongjoong was quite embarrassed, The respected Captain didn't need to do all of this for them. The eight new passengers are indeed grateful for what they are receiving, especially from a worldwide-known pirate crew.
