Luca eyed the big ship where the pirates were. Glob was shivering next to him and mumbling to himself.
The builder ants looked ready for a fight!
"Listen up, ants! You are to go to the ship and eat a huge chunk of it. Enough so it would sink. Can you do it?" asked Luca.
The ants marched towards the ship.
"If Captain Gideon Razortooth sees them, the plan is going to be stopped under his boot," Glob said, fearful. "I have a single black crystal, but it is a small one. Are you sure it will be enough, Luca?"
"It will have to be," Luca said.
Glob gave him the crystal and Luca gripped it. He needed a storm. No rain as that would make the already hard task for the ants even more difficult, but he needed strong wind!
The ship needed to be pushed away from the shore!
But first...
"Glob, I will make the storm, but you have to take the anchor and make sure it doesn't touch the bottom anymore," Luca said.
