Chapter 2723 Jack Found a Clue
Yechu had lived on the sea for several years, but she had never said hello to the Hurricane Pirates. For this matter, she contacted the people on the ship and asked about the Hurricane Pirates.
The Hurricane Pirates are fierce and always solitary. They are a group of murderers, and some people have seen their true faces. As long as it is a robbery, the stolen goods must be sold. This is inevitable. Jack took turns to survey the four stolen goods sales points at sea provided by Yechu.
He also has a portrait of James in his hand.
A retired navy, or an M countryman, who once served in a nuclear submarine.
Nuclear submarine?
The portrait was recently obtained, and the intelligence collected in the women's branch of an island. In the past month, he has been everywhere, even to these places he has never been to before, to cater to those women.
He stayed in the women's branch for three days, and learned about the Hurricane Pirates from the women's gossip. This group was feared, but generous. They once stopped sailing on the island. More than a dozen people stayed there for three days, selling stolen goods, playing with women, eating, drinking and having fun. The captain was James. There was a woman who worshipped violence and blood, so she took a photo.
Jack got the photo and immediately searched in the global biometric gene bank, so he got James's photo.
Served in a nuclear submarine?
Jack quickly retrieved James's information from the system. He served in the Pacific Navy and was wanted for a conflict and murder with a soldier. There has been no news since then.
There are few official records, and they are still wanted now.
He took the information he collected.
No one has seen the ships of the Hurricane Pirates. They are elusive and it is very unusual for them to appear in the sea. They travel almost all over the world. If they are pirate ships, they almost always go to a fixed sea area and then dock. They will rob in familiar sea areas and can respond quickly if something happens. The Hurricane Pirates are hated all over the world. Except for the territorial waters of Asia, they have robbed almost everywhere.
Jack quickly looked at the information that he had memorized long ago, took the computer, marked the looting locations of the Hurricane Pirates and the supply of nuclear fuel, and two circles soon appeared on the map.
This stuff is different from gasoline. It is almost all controlled by the state and is very rare. China imports it from Australia and South Africa every year, and few countries produce it alone.
An ordinary ship can be replaced every few years.
But if it is not a national submarine, he can't get a lot of fuel at one time even if he has money. It doesn't need to be replaced frequently, and it needs more power to stay silent on the seabed, so they must keep driving.
Jack hurriedly drew a route map and widened his eyes slightly.
"My God..."
James owns a nuclear submarine!
This is something he has never calculated. This is the most advanced weapon for national defense, not something that privately owned. It is more difficult than a private company launching a satellite.
Even if he has it, it is unlikely to be able to drive it on the seabed. The operation of a submarine requires a lot of high-end engineers to maintain it, which is not something that pirates can control.
No wonder he searched so many places, but there was no trace of the Hurricane Pirates. No wonder they were elusive and committed crimes all over the world. No wonder... no one had ever seen them.
If he had a ghost submarine, that would make sense.
Are all the people detected by the Pacific Ocean submarine radar dead? Such a large ship is on the seabed, and the radar can't detect it? There are so many ships in service on the seabed every year.
Aircraft carriers are on the sea surface, and if there is a submarine approaching, it can also be detected.
It is impossible that there is no news at all.
Unless it is Los Angeles class.
Jack is very confident in his country's weapons and technology. He has basically ruled out the possibility of other countries' ships and directly locked on the Los Angeles class submarine.
The main tasks of this class of submarines are anti-ship, anti-submarine and escort for aircraft carrier battle groups, so they have the most advanced stealth system. After the third level of silence, they cannot be detected by radar.
This class of submarines are all attack submarines, which are simple to operate and quantity is king. Jack expected that James would not be able to steal the submarines of other levels. James also served in Los Angeles class attack submarines.
He immediately called General Taylor, "Are there any Los Angeles-class submarines that are no longer in service?"
"Yes!" General Taylor was puzzled, "Why are you asking this?"
"Where are they parked?"
"At the NATO base."
"Are they all there?"
"Yes, three."
"I know!" Jack hung up the phone and called the head of the naval defense at the NATO base to inquire about the retired Los Angeles-class submarines. The head there swore, "All three are in the harbor, and we are inspecting and replacing them."
"I'll ask again, has any retired Los Angeles-class submarine been lost? Don't force me to send an investigator over there. I'll see where you can find one for me!"
