History[]
Black Lagoon[]
After the Lagoon Company survived the Extra Order company's attempt to kill them at the Yellow Flag, Mayer boarded a gunship with the E.O. Captain. As they prepared to leave the aircraft carrier, Mayer informed the latter that the Japanese company who hired them would even pay for any bullets and rockets that they used, adding that E.O.'s headquarters was allowing them to do the mission their own way.[1] Near the port of Belawan (or Palawan Island in the manga), the pilots quickly caught up to the Black Lagoon and shot at them, but they purposefully only fired enough to cause some damage to the deck. While flying high above the PT boat, Mayer politely remarked that they could have easily destroyed the small boat with the helicopter's missiles, but the captain giddily responded that he wanted to take his time to taunt and demoralize the pirates instead of quickly killing them. As Mayer remained silent, the captain added that the pirates deserved a slow death for attempting to flee and not fighting back.[2]
Soon, when the Black Lagoon became trapped on a particular path as a result of the pilots' plan, the captain told Mayer that he felt excited thinking about how the enemy would try to react, with Mayer commenting that the helicopter's superior weaponry would honeycomb the PT boat with holes. When the boat started to travel toward their helicopter, Mayer warned his captain about the sudden movement, so they likewise flew toward the boat to play a game of chicken. When Revy fired back at the helicopter, Mayer was startled, in contrast to the captain who welcomed the fight and fired a few missiles at the boat. Seeing that the pirates diverted the missiles with a flare gun, the captain ordered Mayer to help him kill the pirates with a single shot after the enemy used a shipwreck as a ramp. To their surprise, the Black Lagoon successfully launched a torpedo into the low-flying helicopter's cabin, crashing the helicopter and killing both Mayer and the captain.[3]
