Stris gritted his teeth at how every pirate looked at him with suspicion, but he didn't say anything. If he said something without proof, it wouldn't only backfire. Stris could only send a signal using the magic item in his hand as he waited for the ruckus to die down and for the other big crews to take action against the Blue Lounge.
Since Stris didn't deny Wulf's accusations, a lot of the pirates at the Pirate Meet started believing that Stris and the Blue Lounge League of Pirates had connections with the Starsling Kingdom.
Stris noticed the shifting atmosphere, but he didn't care. Stris only cared about the leaders of the other big crews, the Bunglehoppers and Toz. He was wary of Red Hook and the Representative since they rivaled him in strength, but he kept an eye out for the Bunglehoppers and Toz because he wanted to personally take revenge for them raiding his base and openly mocking him.
