King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer
Chapter 1158 - 1011 Strange Feeling

Boss Joe fished for three days without catching a single drug dealer. Originally, he thought the dealers had backed off, who would have thought these guys still had tricks up their sleeves.

After rowing the small boat ashore, Joe Ga made his way to the resort's central area.

Tony had set up a temporary dispatch center there, mainly to assist Antar in using drones and manpower to clear suspicious areas around the resort.

Following Boss Joe's instructions, Anteater Baru led a group of Middle Easterners into the jungle each day for the past three days.

Each time, those Middle Easterners entered with heads held high and returned looking disheveled, and their demeanor toward the Anteater completely changed.

The difference between the Amazon and the Congo Rainforest is significant, but to the Anteater, the annoying venomous insects and swamps are no problem at all; in fact, the existence of witch medicine gave them an even greater advantage.

In three days, all the bodyguards were taken for a round in the jungle, and they all submitted.

Sayyid was ecstatic. As someone marginalized from the princes, he had found a sense of presence among them.

Because the Anteater respected him greatly, while looking at the other princes as if they were valuable trinkets.

That feeling was incredibly satisfying!

By the time Joe Ga came ashore, Sayyid was waiting at the edge of the observation deck...

Seeing Boss Joe immediately, Sayyid hurriedly said, "The Brazilians want to head upstream, and we don't have enough manpower to guard the river."

Joe Ga waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter if no one is guarding the river; blowing up the ship is not difficult for us.

I just want to know, what do those drug dealers want by attacking the upstream indigenous villages?"

With a slightly grim expression, Sayyid said, "They kidnapped people from the village and then demanded the Brazilian military release the previously captured drug traffickers.

That plane was carrying a family of an Indian Congressman, including his wife and four children.

Their destination is the village controlled by the drug dealers…"

As he spoke, Sayyid looked somewhat troubled and said, "Hu Lang, this matter is difficult to handle, the indigenous people are somewhat xenophobic, and once they think this has something to do with us blocking the drug dealers' fleet…"

Joe Ga frowned and said, "With the Brazilian military personnel being redeployed, those drug dealers can reach Manaus directly via the other waterway, achieving their goal.

But I still don't quite understand why these people dare to blatantly provoke the Brazilian military.

They avoid conflict with the military because they don't want to engage in confrontation, and doing something like this will just make the conflict public.

What are they after?"

Joe Ga rubbed his temples and said, "Those people are from the Colombian Cali Cartel Family, they do have this capability, but what's their motive?

Was there a lot of drugs on the blocked ship?

No, that doesn't make sense…"

Sayyid helplessly shook his head and said, "You should go take a look, a Congressman named Rondo sent us a message seeking help.

The Brazilian military's attention is being diverted, and he is asking us to send people into the rainforest for a rescue operation.

I also feel something is off, but I can't figure out what…"

Joe Ga walked into the hall, frowning all the way, where everyone was gathered. Tony projected a video onto the wall…

A woman with indigenous blood was sitting in an airplane, chatting happily with a few children and reminding them to behave and respect local people once they reached their destination.

Then, suddenly, the phone screen started shaking violently, and the image cut off amidst screaming.

After the screen went dark, a haggard-looking middle-aged man appeared, clasped his hands together in a prayerful manner, and said, "Please help me, I'm willing to give up everything for the safety of my wife and children…

They are still alive, please help me…"

After watching the video, Joe Ga signaled Tony to replay it, then said after a careful viewing, "The plane suddenly went out of control, and by looking at the cockpit, it seems to be Senas.

If that's the case, the people on board might actually survive…

But why did this Rondo guy come to us? As a representative of the indigenous people, he should be able to mobilize many people."

Listening to this, Tony raised his hand and said, "Boss, this guy has already left. He took people by boat into the rainforest communities, preparing to recruit people there and then head into the rainforest for a search.

Now, the GPS signal from the plane has disappeared, and I calculated the crash location based on the flight time and video call timing, along with the cruising speed of Senas, which should be around the Central Amazon Conservation Area.

The area we need to search is too large, and reportedly, some drug trafficking armed forces are entrenched there.

They also need a long-range aircraft to help conduct a detailed low-altitude search, which must be done within three days.

Otherwise, not only will the crash site not be found, but if the people inside the plane are alive, they might not last that long either."

Joe Ga shook his head after hearing this and said, "The plane is easy to find, why doesn't that guy arrange it himself."

Tony shrugged and said, "Because that guy has no money, he's the indigenous representative, but very unwelcome in Brazil's political circles.

The drug cartel people took over an indigenous village and sent a video asking the Brazilian military to release the ship and people that were detained near us a few days ago.

Now all the military attention is over there, and they have no interest in participating in the search at all.

They think the chances of surviving a crash in that situation are slim!"

Tony glanced at Joe Ga, who was deep in thought, and said, "Boss, honestly, I also think the chances of survival are slim...

But if we ignore Rondo's plea for help, the attitude of the nearby natives towards the resort might not be too good in the future."

After a moment of silence, Joe Ga said, "Among the people the Brazilian military detained a few days ago, there must be someone very important, which is why the drug cartel is going crazy.

They probably aren't targeting us...

But I still feel something's not right, I can't put my finger on it.

I just think the plane crash and the village being attacked happening at the same time seems a bit too coincidental."

Joe Ga's words plunged everyone into silence...

From a humanitarian standpoint, in situations like this, if you have the capability, you should lend a hand no matter what.

But the people at the resort have a rather special status, and those royal guards have poor combat skills, which means Joe Ga's manpower is not quite enough.

Joe Ga thought for a moment, then looked at Sayyid and said, "The crash site is over 500 kilometers from here, there's no way a helicopter can make the round trip.

Try to rent a small plane, have someone go to the vicinity of the plane crash and take a look, find the crash location first before deciding the next step."

Sayyid nodded and said, "The plane is not a problem. I bought a Seabear L-65 seaplane, it's currently parked in the hangar outside the resort.

It was originally intended to transport guests from other cities, but now it can be put to use. However, the resort hasn't officially opened yet, and the pilots haven't been recruited.

Waiting for the pilot to come could take a while."

Joe Ga frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "I'll go, I can pilot this kind of plane.

'Kitten' will be bringing people over soon, if I find anything, don't let anyone else intervene, just send the newly recruited people to participate in the rescue.

This could also serve as a field assessment for them!"

Saying this, Joe Ga gave Sayyid a knowing look, pulled him aside, and whispered, "I just feel something's not right, but I can't say what exactly…

I keep feeling like someone wants to divert me away…"

Upon hearing this, Sayyid turned and glanced at the Middle Eastern princes gathered in the lobby's resting area, and asked, "You mean someone wants to target them?"

Joe Ga shook his head and said, "I'm not sure...

Based on your understanding of the Royal Family, what would happen if something happened to them?"

Sayyid replied with wide eyes, "What impact could it have?

They're just second-tier princes, their status is a bit higher than mine, but their role is mostly just as mouthpieces.

Who would have such nerve, and why target them?"

Listening to this, Joe Ga shook his head, somewhat at a loss...

Everything seems unrelated to me, but my instinct just tells me that this isn't so simple.

But if it's really as Sayyid said, and these three princes' roles are merely as messengers, then Joe Ga's intuition must be wrong.

Thinking that he might indeed be a bit paranoid, Joe Ga shook his head and said, "Have the plane prepared, regardless, we should at least go take a look first.

If there are survivors from the crash, time is of the essence for them!

Lives are at stake here!"

Dorian nodded and said, "Exactly, let's go take a look first!

I'll go with the boss, and if the crash site is near the river, we can land directly on the water.

I've seen the Seabear L-65, that kind of plane can land entirely on water or even soft riverbanks, and is relatively easy to control.

Tony and Medico Bird will come with me, and we'll bring reconnaissance electronic equipment...

God bless those kids survive!"

This time, Nis didn't insist on going with them; instead, she went up to Joe Ga, took his hand, and said, "Be careful…"

Joe Ga nonchalantly waved his hand, then leaned towards Nis' ear and said, "I still feel a bit uneasy, so you should remind Anteater Baru to keep an eye on those people from the Middle East.

I have a feeling there's a problem, but I can't pinpoint where exactly.

No one should be targeting me because they haven't had time to make any plans; these princes came quite early, so their whereabouts must have been exposed.

I suspect someone wants to make a move on these princes, but I don't know how they plan to do it."

Saying this, Joe Ga gave Nis a strong hug, laughing, "While I'm gone, you better treat our son nicely, he's just too pitiful…"
