Chapter 1389: Payment

Ning looked at the drink in front of him and then at the grinning Captain Darkwater who stood before him. He stared at the man for just 2 seconds before grinning himself.

He grabbed the chalice and drank the rum down in one large gulp, not even showing any disgust as the rancid rum slid down his throat.

He handed back the chalice to the Captain, who stared with a smirk on his face. The captain grabbed the chalice to take it back, but Ning's grip was so tight that he couldn't pull it back easily.

The captain grunted and tried to pull even harder but he couldn't move it away.

Seeing the situation, many of the people around the captain got closer to shoot Ning upon order.

"What do ya think you're doing, brat?" the Captain asked angrily.

"Captain Darkwater," Ning said slowly. "Captain… were you a captain in a ship?"

Darkwater let go of the chalice and pulled out a flintlock pistol, pointing it at Ning's head.
