Captain Adam navigated the choppy waters off the coast of Somalia, busily rummaging with the control panel and gazing ahead at the sea. As he monitored the radar and checked the coordinates, he saw a few boats on the horizon.
Blissfully unaware of the impending danger that lurked ahead, Captain Adam paid them no heed, thinking of them as mere Somali fishermen. But as the vessels drew closer with purposeful and synchronized movements, his seasoned instincts began to prickle with alarm.
“All hands on deck!” Captain Adam’s voice boomed through the ship’s intercom. Pirates, armed and ready for confrontation, swiftly approached the container ship. Little did they know, Captain Adam had a surprise up his sleeve. That morning, the sun had risen over a calm sea, casting a golden glow on the container ship as it plowed steadily through the waters.
Captain Adam, a seasoned mariner with decades of experience, had performed his usual routine checks, exchanging light-hearted banter with his crew.
