People define or judge something with their own justice and measure. Moreover every person insists that only he or she is right. If every measures are right which is universal valid justice? In this story a navy seal warrior has to rescue kidnapped sailors and the vessel even though he contributes to his life. A young pirate must make it success kidnapping in spite of any sacrifices. A senseless broker only focus on maximize his ransom. Where is your justice? This story is mixed with fiction and nonfiction to make it interesting.
