Chapter 810 - Making Plans

Back in Baymard, Landon had finished briefing the higher-ups on the letters and notes that he had received.

Of course, he passed some of the letters and reports along for everyone within the room to look over.

And as the meeting advanced, everyone began debating on the best strategy to take down the baker without the organization's knowledge.

It wasn't that they were afraid of any counterattacks.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'m-the-king-of-technology_15071779505679105/making-plans_52168250187906296 for visiting.

But during my situation, it was best to take the smartest route.

In this case, they were looking at the best way to finish the mission was to use a silent approach.

Without a doubt, the pirate organization would certainly find out that they had their comrade in their prisons.

But that would be a long while.

One should know that a detailed list of prisoners was always published weekly so that their family members could identify and visit the prisoners.

It was their right to see their families, and Baymard had no reason to hide them away.

And normally, jotting down Marlo's name would alert several people.

But here's the thing.

No one knew the baker's real name (apart from his brothers).

So even the pirates who accidentally saw it would brush over it without blinking.

It was the cons of staying in the shadows.

More still, most states only knew each other's first names or pirate nicknames, as it was easier to memorize and build one's character amongst the crews.

For some, the last time they heard their real name was over 15 years ago.

.

Again, it was just easier since sometimes, there could be more than 10 James or Johns on the same crew sh.i.p.s.

More still, when pirates were being ranked on the list of strongest pirates, it would just be too confusing to use their names.

Hence powerful nicknames like Iron Head or Silver Tongue were used by all.

Bottom line, the longer they stayed as pirates, the more they forgot their real names.

So even if their real names were published for their live ones to visit them in prison, no one might actually recognize their names.

That said, in the case of Marlo, only his brothers would be able to identify him.

And that might take a very, very long time.

Firstly, before no one might suspect that Marlo was missing until the end of the year.

Right now, he was here around the Pyno continent, and even if he wanted to sail towards the Continent of Morgany and report back to headquarters, it would take several months to get there.

So they might only notice his absence by year-end.

Following that, they would probably start searching for him everywhere.

And it might also take longer for them to know that he was in Baymard.

In short, even planning a rescue mission might take longer as well.

.

Everyone agreed with this method.

if they executed it well, the pirate organization might only have a chance to come at them sometime in the summer of next year.

In fact, they might not even make their move that early if they still weren't able to track Marlo's whereabouts.

Everything had to be meticulously planned out.

So they couldn't leave any pirates on the island who would tattletale about the attack.

Moreover, they needed to take enough sh.i.p.s that would transport all the wealth from the pirate buildings on the island to their sh.i.p.s.

And once everything was said and done, they would leave the island as soon as possible, since it was indeed a pirate island.

If they tried to inhabit it, then more incoming pirates would notice them and report their presence to headquarters.

The meeting progressed very smoothly with everyone asking questions and giving their own inputs as well.

.

"Your majesty, thanks to the Pyno continent map you gave us, we know the size of the island as well as its location.

But this ain't enough if we want to be utterly successful.

So I suggest that once the soldiers are a certain distance away from the island on ship, they should use a hot air balloon and fly over the island to properly pinpoint where the pirate buildings, island hills and other formations are.

Knowing this can help us strategize and even come up with escape routes in the worst-case scenario.

Moreover, knowing where the pirate buildings are located would make the mission progress faster.

So I suggest we use the hot air balloons to mark up all that we can see.

After all, the pirates have the advantage of knowing the island to heart.

So if we didn't prepare well enough, we might unintentionally allow some people to hide and escape from our clutches." Said one of the military superiors.

He felt like they didn't know that much about the place and needed to be extra careful in this one.

Landon rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

To be honest, even though the system gave him a detailed map, he refused to use it for this mission.

He wanted the soldiers to use their intuitions and skills to navigate their way through the place.

This was the perfect time to test out their skills, as well as to freely allow them to use the new gadgets and weapons.

Landon knew that there was sinking mud and all other dangers out there.

So all he could do was arrange a simulation on how to escape from these dangers before they headed out.

He would also request for them to take some pills that would fight against some toxic plants there too.

This was part of the growth.

And so the rest was up to them.

.

Landon nodded in agreement.

"Hmmm.

Let's do that then.

And additionally, we will also have to analyze all potential dangers on the island.

So we will have 4 days of simulation with the soldiers before finally setting out."

"I agree, your majesty!"

"I agree as well your majesty."

"Good!"

Landon decided to create the soldiers before they headed out.

For one, the system required him to take care of Marlo before within the next 3 weeks.

And the only reason why he wanted it done within this first week was because he didn't want Marlo to kill any other person as food.

So they would use 4 whole days to prepare before setting out and capturing him.

Well, that was the plan.

With that, Landon followed everyone out of the room.

Now, it was time to urgently call in the team.

And so just like that, Marlo's days were numbered.

It was as if the tense atmosphere around the place magically spread out across the Pyno continent because far away, someone else was making big lives as well.
