The Black Pirates
CH. 19 – Investigate Issues



The wind blew peacefully. At the end of the beach, after Tabra finished waving. He sighed. The ship carrying Captain Gaiha and Maisya has been lost in sight. He also decided to go home. Smooth rustling footprints footstool stepping.


The ocean was silent, leaving the sound of waves swinging the rhythm of the wind. Tabra walked and kept going. In a shady tree. Not far from the beach, he saw something familiar. Two people were chatting like two stars in the sky last time. Secret talk, apparently. Tabra at a glance guessed, at first thought of wanting to eavesdrop.


The sun still shows a smile. The air blows, the leaves brighten the atmosphere. Captain Lasha had a tense meeting with an old man whom she had previously known was a healer.


Tabra walked over. He moved nimbly into the crack of the grass in the forest. Right behind the bush, he deliberately did so to eavesdrop on the four-eye conversation between the healer and Captain Lasha.


Secret talk, as he had expected. “They seem to be talking about something important. I have to know.” Tabra muttered looking towards the two of them.


No rain, no storm, the eardrum focused on hearing it, trying to capture the frequency of sound.


Nevertheless, the voice remained unclear. It's a long way away. Plus the sound of music from the wind and the pounding of the waves are friendly. Between him and his voice was like being squeezed between a gap, invisibility.


Captain Lasha left, leaving behind a curious black-haired boy. The question wriggled in the soul until it flew into space, hurtling to earth. The conversation between Captain Lasha and the physician was over.


The world has turned the clock, Captain Lasha has disappeared in sight. Tabra clasped his hands tightly, slightly lowered. He was determined to dare to approach the healer.


Before, he was muttering. I don't know what he said, not caught the sense of hearing. “Tabib!” He exclaimed behind the bush, turning himself up.


The doctor looked, smiling. “What's up?” Hearing the words of an old man who was staring at him. Tabra frowned in wonder, why was the healer acting so familiar, should he ask you who or what is showing a shocked expression, or ask something or quietly turn his head. Tabra never found an answer, she chose to stay for a moment.


The physician repeats the words. He's stroking the beard. Continue speaking, “I've known before, you eavesdropped on my conversation with Captain Lasha. So, I ask you, there may be things that you do not understand until you choose to appear before me.”


Tabra whizzed in his mind. He interjected, apologizing, apparently the healer had found out. At a glance, a child turned his face away, scratching his head.


“That's, I'm sorry.” Tabra bent down reverent. The doctor patted his shoulder. Smiling questions like before.


Tabra raised her head, staring still awkwardly. He let out a faint breath. Then ventured again. “Nothing. It's just, it was loud with the sound of the wind. Now, can you tell me what you were talking about?” Tabra made hand gestures, scratching his nose to reduce awkwardness.


The doctor laughed for a moment. “With pleasure, I will tell you about the item we talked about.” The sound of the waves interjected in the middle of the speech.


Tabra heard it, at a glance listened, said to immediately tell him. The physician continued, telling everything at length according to what they had been talking about.


Tabra listened to the physician, nodding whenever the physician spoke.


Almost an hour, the doctor finished telling. Tabra. “So so, it turns out that Akma Jaya has been exposed to a deadly poison.”


“Is it possible that the poison came from that group of kidnappers?" inner Tabra makes guessing sounds and the brain thinks hard.


The doctor nodded back. “Yes, Akma Jaya has been exposed to poison, but I found and examined the poison residing in her body. Clearly, I noticed a strange appearance from the poison. I don't want to tell Captain Lasha too complicated a problem. On the other hand, I saw from the look on his face, he loved his son. Before I had made a mistake, not thinking about feelings, I had said a sentence that made his wife faint. Now, I try to hold my mouth back from saying it in detail, tomorrow or later this matter will find a bright spot. Let it be for now, I am a sniff of all that and swallow bitter musings that often make me lose my footing.”


Tabra. “I understand. Talk to me, I'll listen to him.”


The doctor looked seriously, he nodded back. “I'll tell you a little of this problem. One thing you should remember. Don't let you leak it all over the house, shut your mouth. Suffice it, for this matter, your knowledge as a reference goes unnoticed.” He's rambling. Tabra snoring lethargic.


An old man was inexperienced at confronting a child. He assumed that something in his sight was stuck with each other.


“Enough. I understand.” Tabra interrupted for a moment sighing, holding back the drowsiness.


Physician laughing. “I forgot I was dealing with a little boy. We simplify this conversation so as not to be serious.”


“If it's not serious, stop talking. I don't like it, I'd better go or I don't have to hear what you say.” Tabra shriveled, crossing both hands.


The doctor looked at the face that looked upset. Whereas, earlier when he explained seriously, Tabra instead snored sluggishly. The old grandfather chuckled for a moment, patting his shoulders. Tabra still crossed hands. The wind blows, the coconut leaves wave.


A moment of silence, leaving a boisterous sound of wind touching the leaves. “Today, I'm with you here. Listen, I will begin to give you an explanation of the poison that resides in the body of Akma Jaya. The poison quickly spread throughout the body. You know white water poured color, change water fast.” The physician simplifies speech. At first glance staring at the leaves touched by the wind.


“While, according to the records I have read, the poison will swallow energy, vision and swallow the whole member until it can not move. Only, it happened when entering the two-year period, while Akma Jaya, he said, was only a year. I suspect the poison has been strengthened, made a mixture or something.” The doctor stroked the beard.


Tabra glaring. “As per my guess, it looks like this is their doing!” Her pliers were clenched, clinging to her knees.


“A good step, you investigate this problem further so that there is no misunderstanding.” The healer interrupted, sighed, releasing the elusan beard.


Tabra nodded. “All right, for now. I permission my part to investigate, even dragging them into the pit of misery!” He held out a speech, again clenched his hands. The wind blows, the coconut leaves wave.


“Thank you for the information you told me.” Tabra went away full of anger. Uncontrolled, how the sentence was spoken while walking, not looking at who was in front of him.


Physicians reproduce, understand a child who does not understand manners. Eeh, it's only natural. In a group of pirates, it was common, sometimes more than that.


After Tabra disappeared from view. The physician decided to leave, in other cases, he had to obey Captain Lasha's orders to guard Akma Jaya as long as the father had no side of his son.


***


On the way foot stepped, Tabra continued muttering, also thinking. “I have to investigate this issue further.” He walked from one place to another. People were staring fixedly, surmised and gazes wanted to ask.


Tabra gave a smile. The others smiled back. “Siang.” Tabra.


“Also.” The others answered.


“Where are you?”


“Ke grave.” Tabra laughs.


“Awas slipped!” One of them exclaimed.


Tabra nodded. “Tomorrow, you slipped.” The others gawked.


“Gosh, that kid, he's short of joke material. You're the one who slipped!” He exclaimed, Tabra is already far in sight. “Iya, you're all!” Tabra exclaimed back, looking over.


Tabra is not kidding. He's headed to the cemetery. In a room where the breeding was, it was called a cemetery for a reason. Uncomfortable reasons to talk about.


There is also a place of captivity. He's headed to where the kidnapper group is being held captive. Arriving at the place of captivity, Tabra asked many things, but they all shook their heads, did not want to answer or really did not know about the problem.


Tabra repeated the question. Some shakes. Again, he repeated the question. They come back to shake.


“We don't know, we were just told to whip him and we really don't know what questions you're asking.” One of them said, representing the other.


Tabra clenched her hands. He continued walking, leaving the place of captivity. Not far from the prisoner. Ten times to step. There is a breeding ground. The place is quite large. Tabra searched there, come here, surrounded him. He's hard to find an accurate location. Where the kidnapper's boss is working, that question has not been answered.


The sun is still fresh. Clattering steps down the place, Tabra arrived at a large cave, not translucent in the sunlight, looking dark in it, but there was a faint sound, heard in the ears.


Tabra at a glance guessed. He's clenching his hands. Strolling around, staying in, daring, fearing nothing, the grip of the hand preparing to draw the sword. He's slimming his mouth, walking slowly, around a quiet area—no one's passing by.


He stared at the peep. It turned out that his steps were not wrong to enter the place, that was where a kidnapper boss was on the job, but there was no one to watch. The kidnapper boss and his comrades laughed.


Tabra. “They're this. As I thought, they were the culprit.” He heard a glance of clenching his hands as if he wanted to take the evidence and spread it to the people.


The evidence is their speech being heard clearly. A good luck, when Tabra was walking around, sitting behind a rock, they were talking about what had happened to Akma Jaya.


“There has just been an issue regarding the death of Akma Jaya. That issue is the truth that will happen in the future. Now, Akma Jaya has not died, but sooner or later, she must have died.” The kidnapper's boss laughed. And so did his colleagues. When he heard the kidnapper's boss, Tabra exhaled an angry breath.


“Bos, the poison you injected is amazing.” One of his men praised in amazement.


“Obviously, that is my specialty, concocting it only takes a few hours, no more no less.” The kidnapper boss catapulted himself. The sound of their laughter resounded, earthy filling the entire cave.


Tabra growled in annoyance. Hearing their laughter seemed to close their ears. In the cave, there are small rocks, also large. He took a big rock. Stare for a moment, then throw, swipe straight, not turn.


The throw was right on target, hard stone—not soft, not playing Tabra throw on the teeth.


The front teeth of the kidnapper boss are broken, bleeding. “Aaargh! Shit, who threw this stone, show yourself, coward!” The kidnapper boss holds a tooth, rubs blood, grimaces. Exclaims furiously.


Tabra appeared. “So, you're the culprit. All this time, Akma Jaya has been suffering and it is the result of your actions, I will not forgive her. Today, I'll finish!” He let out a loud voice, unsheathed the sword.


The kidnapper boss stared, re-wiped the blood, spat it out. “Church, you dare to enter the tiger's nest!” The scary face of the voice came to match him.


“Wah, there's a rat. He got lost, got in the wrong place.” One of them laughed cynically.


“Eat our full boss!”


The kidnapper's boss laughed. “Just leave him to me.” He's wielding a sword.


Tabra wiped her face, revealing anger. “Don't you think. You're so outrageous, you've made someone miserable and miserable. Don't you feel the slightest bit of pity?” Tabra spoke out loud, tears of anger.


“If you had felt the slightest bit of pity. He suffers, you laugh at the suffering of others!” Tabra was clenching her hands. The sword is kneaded strong.


The kidnapper's boss laughed. “Who cares. We want revenge, we want to make the old pirate feel the loss. You need to know, he's more ruthless, more outrageous!”


“What is the relationship between the person you are referring to and Akma Jaya?” Tabra snorted, glaring.


The kidnapper's boss is shaking the sword. “Bokah, you don't know it. The old pirate I was referring to was Captain Lasha. Akma Jaya is his son, deserving to die!”


Tabra. “What did you say? You demean someone I look up to, you and all of you deserve it, I'll tear your faces apart one by one!” Tabra darted, showing a quick movement, slashing towards the kidnapper's boss, but unfortunately the slash slipped.


The kidnapper boss laughed, returned the attack, thrust the sword towards Tabra, almost hitting him, Tabra quickly jumped back and forth.


From a distance, far away. They both look at each other. “My best friend has been lying weak for a year, living day by day in a state of suffering. He couldn't speak, couldn't move!” Tabra made a hoarse voice as he again slammed the attack, without pause, stalks and slashes mixed with the atmosphere.


“Bokah, you're too rash!” The kidnapper boss shouted out loudly, repelling all attacks easily.


“Gegabah!? Ahhhh!! You're the one who didn't realize my attack.” Tabra shouted loudly, she used the movements of the goose bird. Sprightly whimpering.


The kidnapper boss is overwhelmed. “Bokah, you're pretty great!” He kept trying to avoid the attack.


Tabra stared hard. “Don't say much! You fool!!” Tabra screaming.


He again threw an attack, their swords clashed with each other, their fight was electrifying the entire cave. The men from the kidnapper boss looked dumbfounded at their fight.


Tabra screaming, “Aaahhh!” the scream that fused with the sword slash.


Tabra was completely on a rampage, his attack breaking through the rocks blocking the sword scratches, a furious rage flaring up, the instant the person's sword broke, bouncing. The end was stuck to the ground. The kidnapper boss reflexively threw away the sword handle, then ran to a place he thought was safe.


Tabra stepped slowly, showing a murderous look. The sword dragged along formed a line on the ground. The kidnapper boss walked back, covered in sweat.


One of the guards who was patrolling— woke up, surrounded to see the place, he reached one of the caves, he heard the sound of fighting. Then, he entered the cave.


“Hey, don't make a fuss!”


Tabra turned his head, staring intently at the murderous air. “Who made a fuss!! Haah!!”


The guard swallowed. He knew that Tabra was the son of Captain Lasha's accomplice, a clear-cut glow of authority. His father was named Alba—one who was appointed by Captain Lasha as his accomplice.


Since childhood, at an innocent age, Alba has been on a cruise. He has sailed many seas, unmitigated, two oceans have been sailed, even fighting like a pirate.


However, because of that, Alba is rarely at home. He's always been assigned Captain Lasha in various ways, until now. In the interim, he replaced the position of Captain Lasha guarding the village. The leave period may be granted, but there is no known complete information about it. Some news about him was only heard.


The sun was still standing high up shining on the earth. “Quite stop. What is this really?” The guard asked with a panicked face. He swallowed it a second time.


Tabra pointed to the person in front of him—bos the kidnapper. “She, she is the one who has concocted the poison then injected it into Akma Jaya!” With a loud voice, eyes glared. Tabra shakes a look. The guards swallowed back.


“That person has made my best friend miserable and suffering!!” Tabra says—repeats the word, a little different.


Tabra darted sharply toward the kidnapper's boss. This time, he would slash at her, severing life. The kidnapper boss has no sword. He waited for death, laughing for a moment.


His men stared unmoved. The guard was on the spot, he couldn't stop it. Tabra.


“You kill me. Haahaha, Poison in the body of Akma Jaya, only I know the antidote.”


Tabra momentarily inhaled a breath, stopping the killing intent. He realizes that killing him, the poison that resides in Akma Jaya's body is the act of the kidnapper's boss. He did not know the antidote, other than the person who concocted it. In addition, medicinal plants were meant by healers.


The plant is not necessarily healing. And, this is a little difficult. Guards can only gulp, watching—t dare to ponder. The sword stopped near the neck. “Bokah, what's up? Come on, cut me!” The kidnapper boss smiled cynically.


“Diam.” Tabra raised a voice. He's holding the kidnapper's boss's hand. He called out to the guards to give him a rope. While waiting, the guard came with a rope. Tabra.


The kidnapper boss was dragged. He intended to take her to the healer's place. “Come with me, you'll be asked for more details!” Tabra left the guard in front of him. Dicangin. Also the men of the kidnapper's boss, all of them were hacked. He left the place many called the people with the grave.


It was there that the two places that were put together felt stuffy like a burial place for slaves and captives. They entered into the realm of barzakh. Tortured, also employed all-out. Tabra was still walking, people were staring, gulping.
