Chapter 1619 Innocent Saint Martin

A year later, on an island, the port was bustling with people coming and going, and the people who carried the goods kept unloading the goods from the ship back and forth. The prosperity of this port is enviable.

A carefree looking man stroked the beard on his upper lip and looked at the white-bearded man beside him and said, "Gibbs, is this the St. Maarten Island we know? Is there a mistake in the nautical chart?"

Gibbs was also a little stunned, "It really doesn't look like the St. Maarten I remember, it shouldn't be like this."

The man is Jack Sparrow. After losing his Black Pearl, he has been inquiring about Barbosa's news, but Barbosa's fleet is growing day by day, and he is just a man who lost the Black Pearl. The captain has no choice but to find some ships to make up the number.

However, compared to the Black Pearl, those ships are simply unbearable to Jack Sparrow. Not only are they running slowly, but the ships are like a bad old man who is about to reach old age. Into a pile of rotten wood.

But Jack Sparrow had no choice. Without the Black Pearl, he couldn't think too much. Just relying on his robbery methods, he was almost out of control now.

He also heard that St. Martin was engaged in development recently, so they came to join in the fun.

In fact, to be precise, it was his first mate, Gibbs, who decided to come to St. Maarten to do odd jobs after whispering with him for a while, subsidizing the entire pirate team with the salaries of the sailors.

But as soon as he arrived at this St. Martin Jack Sparrow, he was completely shocked.

Was this still the St. Martin he had seen before?The chaotic and noisy St. Martin?

Gibbs' eyes lit up, and he looked at the flag flying in the air on the top of the mountain. It was a flag with a black background, but it had a golden pattern on it.

A hammer and a huge anchor crossed in the middle of the flag, and around it were leaves of unknown nature, forming a horseshoe-like circle, enclosing the hammer and the anchor in the middle, the hammer and the anchor There are also some stars above the anchor.

With a black flag and a golden pattern, he was a little stunned. He had never seen this flag before. Suddenly, he grabbed a boatman next to him who was carrying goods and said, "Man, where is this? It's not St. Martin?" Gibbs wondered if he had gone to the wrong place, was there something wrong with their nautical chart?Shouldn't it?

"This is Saint Martin!"

Hearing this answer, Gibbs heaved a sigh of relief. He could find this place even with his eyes closed. His sailing experience was correct.

"This is St. Martin, but now it has changed its name to the City of Innocence."

"The city of innocence?" Jack Sparrow was really stunned, and St. Martin turned into a city of innocence.

Gibbs next to him immediately answered, "Dude, what does the city of innocence mean?"

The boatman smiled, expressing his understanding of outsiders, "The City of Innocence is a term that has just become popular recently. Serve your sentence and have to suffer what you deserve."

This guy opened his sleeves to reveal his thick arms. On his arms was a pattern like the inexplicable branches wrapped around the flag just now, like two long snakes wandering around his wrists. A cyan trace.

"Have you seen this?" The man pointed to the lines on his arm, and said, "The city of innocence, that is to say, anyone who has committed a fault or crime needs to atone for his sins in the city of innocence, but he will serve his sentence here. There is no need to wear instruments of torture."

"If you don't wear a torture device, why don't you run away!" Jack Sparrow was stunned.

"There's no need to run away! Because it's meaningless and the price is too high!" Said the boatman and looked at a few men with metal guns hanging from their waists who were talking and laughing in the distance. Luo was a little confused.

"Ah, can it still be like this? Didn't the pirates just hang themselves?" Gibbs next to him immediately answered the question again.

"No, no, that's what the British and Spaniards often do, and we are a kingdom of pirates!"

"Pirate Kingdom?" Jack Sparrow's voice raised an octave.

Could it be that he has been floating on the sea for too long, or that he has been on a deserted island for too long, causing him to be isolated from the world?When did a pirate kingdom appear.

"No, it's not right, I said this in our common way!" The boatman carrying the bag continued: "To be precise, it should be called the Kingdom of White Iron."

"White Iron Kingdom?"

"Correct!"

"That white iron from the White Iron Pirates!" Jack Sparrow and Gibbs looked at each other.

The boatman nodded repeatedly, "It seems that you also know that Roy Smith has established a new kingdom, but the king of this kingdom is not himself."

"What, there is no king, so how can it be called a kingdom?"

"There are actually two real kings in this kingdom!" said the boatman, pointing to the flag. "One is the hammer, and the other is the anchor of the ship."

The Pirate Code clearly states, "Anyone who possesses bravery, skill, knowledge, adventure, passion, curiosity, and exploration can be king!"

"The king we enshrine has not yet ascended the throne, and now we are using the false monarch system! So we don't have a real king yet."

"The Xujun system?" Jack Sparrow was really a little confused. Why did he feel that the world had undergone a huge upside-down, and he couldn't understand what the boatman said.

"That's right, it's the Xujun system!"

"And what about Roy Smith!"

"Royer Smith is only a consul. He acts as a lord to represent the administrative power. However, a consul like him may be re-elected for many terms. Until his death, he may be the consul of this kingdom."

Jack Sparrow waved his hand and said angrily, "Then isn't he the king of this country?"

The boatman scratched his head, "Well, it seems to be the same, but the succession to the throne of the country is not based on blood, we don't need a real king."

Jack Sparrow sucked his teeth when he heard this, a false monarchy and a country that does not need a king, why does it sound so absurd?

Of course it is absurd. In this world, apart from the similar systems in Athens and Rome at the beginning, almost all the latter systems have a throne.

The French Revolution hadn't even started yet. Of course, Zeng Yunfeng would not make that kind of dogmatic mistake. He had to have two political parties fighting in the middle, which was purely for his own discomfort.

What he hopes is to establish a parliament with the emperor, discuss and decide major events to correct the direction of the country, but he does not want these people to interfere or even interfere with the implementation of the country's strategic policy behind the scenes.

But according to Zeng Yunfeng's thinking logic, Zeng Yunfeng will not absolutely eliminate his own enemies, he must have an opposite.

Cutting weeds is to get rid of the roots, but this kind of root depends on what kind of root it is.

It is difficult for people nowadays to understand the harm caused by eliminating all their opposites. Similarly, being too extreme will bring too much trouble to themselves.

This is why Zeng Yunfeng let go of Edward Tich's daughter Isabel.

But the current Baitie Kingdom has just been established. What's even more amazing is that there is no real monarch in this kingdom, only him, the consul.

On the contrary, there are many, many lords below, and the land that these lords are allotted to is determined by the consul and the parliament.

On the contrary, they are like the local emperors in various places. This is also the most helpless thing for the Baitie Kingdom today.

The level of development in various places is not enough, so these so-called lords are needed to help them complete all this, instead of relying solely on the council and management organization that Zeng Yunfeng just formed to implement.

The West, especially in the current colonial era, is still unable to achieve centralization and efficient administration in the Central Plains, and most of them still rely on human rule.

The spirit of the rule of law has not been popularized as it was after Napoleon. In the current situation, most cases have to be handled manually.
