Immediately afterward, the Prosper Wing started to change its course and headed towards their home base.
Prosper Wing just turned the direction, the gang of pirates eager to hijack the news of success, reported to their leader.
The leader heard that the successful hijacking of a cargo ship with nearly 20,000 containers, naturally, is happy, think they have caught a big fish.
So, he immediately released the news to the public, claiming that the Prosper Wing had been hijacked by him, and shouted to the owner of the ship, demanding to pay them a ransom of ten million dollars.
They had no idea who the owner of the Prosper Wing was.
However, according to their experience, as long as they announced the information of the ship to the public, the owner would come to their door without delay.
According to past experience, the owner of the ship to confirm that the ship was indeed hijacked, will immediately communicate with the leader of the pirate organization.
On the one hand, to request them not to harm the crew and look to bargain for a ransom price as low as possible.

“This ship just fed back eight hours ago that the soldiers of the Cataclysmic Front had already boarded the ship, how could this still happen ……”
Charlie laughed: “This is the request I set for the Front.”
“What?” Melba froze and asked offhandedly, “Why?”
Charlie laughed: “Don’t worry first, the ship will definitely be fine, as for why soon you will know.”
