A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

The pirates had no doubts about that.

Soon everyone took orders and prepared to contact their subordinates in their own way.

Although under normal circumstances, a ship out of the sea is basically equivalent to losing contact, and it is already difficult to call it back, but the pirate organization headed by Mrs. Zheng has a convenient communication tool - the sky cannon. It is still perfectly possible to send a signal to the ships in the field of view with the shape of fireworks.

What if the people below go too far and for too long to be notified?Then... just... wish them good luck in their next life, that they can be reborn in a wealthy family, and they don't have to be pirates anymore!

After dismissing her men, she began to close her eyes again and plan another matter.

Not only asked the brothers not to go to sea for the time being, Mrs. Zheng also planned to tell them to prepare to move.

To be honest, although she believed in the brothers she brought out with one hand, even Davy Jones came to be the British thugs... It is not impossible for these foreign devils to have other means to pry the prisoners' mouths open.

In other words, they will know about this place sooner or later, and the British fleet will come to take over her Zheng Shishi's foundation.

He couldn't fight again and again, so the only plan for now is to avoid his edge and escape to another hidden place before making any plans.

Just when she was thinking about all this in her mind, she suddenly heard her godson come in from the door, and instead of saluting, kneeling and kowtowing, he said in a hurry: "Mother, Luo Sanpao is here! "

"Luo Sanpao?"

Mrs. Zheng certainly remembered the benefactor who saved her life in the previous naval battle. Hearing that it was he who came, she quickly got up and said, "Come in, please!"

Not long after, Luo Sanpao led a group of people to the main hall, and saluted Mrs. Zheng without mentioning it.

Luo Sanpao said bluntly: "Sister-in-law, I'm looking for you today for nothing else... We rescued Jack from the end of the world, and now we're going to Shipwreck Bay to release Calypso."

Mrs. Zheng frowned immediately when she heard it, and turned her ear: "Jack? Jack Sparrow?"

"Stay here!" Jack replied immediately.This is not due to the translation of the tavern... He has also been in Southeast Asia for a while, and he has made some achievements in Chinese.

This treasure-like answering mode made Mrs. Zheng also smile, but she was still more concerned about serious matters. After a while, she straightened her expression and asked solemnly: "Are you sure you want to release the Sea Goddess? We did it together at the beginning. She was locked up... What if she is the first one to kill us when she comes out?"

This decision was not made by Jack, but he saw that no one else knew what to say, so he had no choice but to stand up and say: "Of course it is possible... But even then, she will not let Lord Beckett go. We just Offended her, but Beckett wants to completely subvert the mystery of the concept of 'the sea', that is, to destroy her."

His violent remarks really aroused the interest of everyone present, and Mrs. Zheng did the same. She showed a surprised expression and continued to ask: "I only know that he said that he wants to eliminate all pirates in the world. I don't know what other words are for come?"

Jack replied immediately: "The eradication of pirates is of course also very important to his own position of power, mainly because the assets he invested in the East India Company will further grow because the trade routes will no longer be disturbed.

"His purpose may end here, but the expansion of the East India Company to the world will be accelerated a lot... Soon, with the financial support of the company, British colonial ships will appear on every inch of coastal land , all oceans will be classified as inland seas by Britain.

"In this case, will there still be an ocean where people can navigate freely? In this ocean, how can there be a foundation for the existence of 'God'?"

After much consideration, Mrs. Zheng finally agreed to everyone's request.

Maybe it was Jack's words that moved her, maybe Luo Sanpao's life-saving grace was the key, in short, she made her promise: she will go to Shipwreck Bay to participate in the Pirate King's rally, and at the meeting support the release of Calypso , Fight to the death with Beckett.

At this stage, both the British Navy and Beckett himself should know where the Shipwreck Bay is, so... Mrs. Zheng's promise has basically bet her life.

After Luo Sanpao and Jack went out, she called her godson and said to him: "My dear, you are still young, this time you find a boat to hide first... If we don't die this time, you Come back to your godmother later. If we don't make it through this time, don't go to Beckett until they have their own problems... After killing us, it's useless for him to keep Davy Jones ... At that time, he will definitely kill the donkey."

The godson trembled all over, respectfully supported her to stand up, and replied cautiously: "Where can the son hide? Without the protection of the godmother, without human hands, where can the son survive."

"Stop pretending, kid..." His godmother sighed, "I know that you gathered a group of kids around your age to learn martial arts on weekdays; I also know that you have a little girl somewhere I don't know You, you are still not smart enough... The more people there are, the more they talk, how can a group of children keep their secrets? Don’t rush into this kind of team if you don’t have complete trust.”

The godson could only smile wryly: "Godmother, your eyesight is perfect..."

On the other side, several people who walked out of Mrs. Zheng's place and returned to the Black Pearl were also discussing something.

After returning from the end of the world, they had already reached a consensus. Even if Mrs. Zheng couldn't be persuaded, the people on the Black Pearl would find other ways to complete the plan.

Now Mrs. Zheng has agreed, which saves a lot of trouble... The ship can now set sail for Shipwreck Bay, where all the surviving pirates will be summoned to fight the final decisive battle with the British fleet.

After going through many life-and-death journeys, the people present are already very familiar with each other, and they can speak directly if they have anything to say.

Tia Doma asked Jack in front of everyone: "...you should know best, the 'mystery' of this sea will disappear sooner or later. Even if it is not started by Beckett and the East India Company, it belongs to the era of pirates It will also end..."

In the past era, the range of human activities was not even 20 kilometers away from the shore.Crossing the Aegean Sea, a small ocean dotted with islands, is already considered a remarkable feat...

Today, countless ocean-going ships cross the ocean, transporting all kinds of goods back and forth between the two ends of the earth.

One day, humans will complete the exploration of every sea, and there will be no unexplored seas on this blue planet. The belief in the "primitive" sea god like Calypso should also disappear completely by then up.

After all, primitive gods like her were born out of human beings' instinctive awe of natural changes.

"That's right... That's right." Jack nodded, and asked back, "But isn't the reason why pirates become pirates is that they are never willing to accept their fate?"

"You are the least willing to accept your fate among them, Jack." Tia Doma smiled, "...I really don't understand why the three goddesses value you so much."

After saying this, she sat down on the bow of the Black Pearl slowly sailing out of the port, closed her eyes like a real witch, and began to recite the mysterious words of revelation.

"The day when myths are no longer sung...has finally come.

"The halls of Olympus have long since lost their glory, and the epic battle for the gods has come to an end.

"Happiness and order, misery and misfortune are all in the hands of men, and each is realized by their actions.

"The actors for the final act are already in place, and the heroes are about to step onto the stage. This is the moment to witness!"

Chapter 53 Shipwreck Cove

When the nine pirate kings really got together and began to discuss strategies to deal with Lord Beckett, Elizabeth, who accepted the Sao Feng token, understood why everyone had to go to Mrs. Zheng first.

...Without her help, this meeting would not have discussed any results at all.

First of all, the opinions of all the people present were not unified. Only a few agreed to fight the British Navy to the end. Most pirates agreed that "then hide from the British and go away", and they have no ambition to be a pirate king. ;

Secondly, even in the same faction, any two pirate kings had no consensus at all before. Some said they wanted to unite with Spain, some said they wanted to go around and attack the colonies, and some said they wanted to hypnotize Beckett and make him a dog. ...

Jack proposed to go to war with the British, and as a result, there was a lot of quarrel in the venue. Everyone quickly developed from verbal attack to drawing out weapons, and there was a possibility of fire at any time.

It wasn't until Jack's father, the old pirate Teague Sparrow, had someone come out with the Code of Pirates, killed a hapless pirate who spoke badly in public, and slapped the Code on the table. Then everyone calmed down temporarily and decided to choose a more civilized The best solution—choose someone who has the final say, no matter what decision the chosen person makes, everyone must implement it.

Luo Sanpao, Turner and Elizabeth, who had never seen such a battle before, were first attracted by the appearance of Uncle Teague.I don't know whether to say "Like father, like son" or aesthetics can also be inherited. In short, the dreadlocks, smoky makeup around the eyes and informal demeanor are too much like Jack, which makes people trance I felt like I saw what Jack would look like 20 years later.

The only difference is that Jack's father seems to be more radical in dressing up than Jack... Even the dreadlocks are hung with all kinds of silver ornaments, crosses, thin silver chains and so on.But for some unknown reason, everyone felt that this person should not believe in religion, or believe in more than one religion.

There seemed to be two hundred or so stories hidden in every wrinkle on his old, ravine-ridden face.

"Barthalomew's code is supreme." Teague Sparrow said, staring at the bad guys around him with sharp eyes like a falcon, "...if I hear you insulting him again... "

At this time, Barbossa also wandered over and sat down next to a few people who were not qualified to participate in the discussion.

"If I hadn't found Mrs. Qing first, it would have been really troublesome this time." He sighed.

Of course Turner asked why, and heard the experienced old pirate say helplessly: "Because...when it comes to voting, everyone will choose to vote for the only person they trust for their own benefit."

Turner's eyelids drooped quickly, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

"They themselves?" he asked.

"Of course..." Barbossa nodded.

But Turner, who thinks he is quite familiar with this system, asked again: "Can't pirates establish cronies through the exchange of interests? In this way, they can concentrate the votes and ensure that their own people can be elected every time. It can also ensure the interests of one's own faction."

"How can there be any interests that can be exchanged between pirates? Or, if you want to get the interests of the other party, wouldn't it be better to just grab them?" Barbosa shook his head speechlessly, "And, how many years do you think this kind of voting is held? Once, how many times has it been held?... Or to put it this way, have you ever heard of any "Pirate King" that existed on the sea? Since Bartholomew, "

Obviously, the vast majority of Pirate Kings are the same as before, not interested in this kind of voting at all, and only because of their respect for Captain Bartholomew and the maintenance of the legitimacy of the "Pirate Code", they cast their votes one by one. voted for himself.

When it was Jack's turn, the man just smiled and said, "I vote for...Elizabeth Swan."

The pirates who had been arguing desperately and swearing at each other suddenly fell silent, staring at this crazy guy, and then turned to the only pirate king who hadn't voted yet—the Pacific Pirate King, Mrs. Qing.

Aunt Zheng blinked her blind eyes, gently took the teacup handed by her subordinates, took a sip, and said in the midst of everyone's anxiety, "I also vote for Elizabeth Swan."

Teague Sparrow put down the piano in his hand, came over and put his hand on the spread code, and simply announced: "Captain Swann is elected."

"Ah, it's over."

Barbossa sighed.

Seeing him unhappy, Turner asked why.

The old pirate replied: "I'm a dead man, so it doesn't matter... But it's not very smart to put all the pirates' remaining strength in Shipwreck Bay, and the only hope of victory is a moody goddess. strategy?"

No matter how the people present choose, the right to decide has come to the hands of Elizabeth Swan who took over the Sao Feng Token.

What makes people feel wrong the most is that this newly appointed pirate king...in fact, has no ship.

She didn't snatch any ship at sea, and she didn't even kill anyone with her own hands.

But Elizabeth was obviously the toughest among all the people present. With hatred in her eyes, she raised her head and said, "Push all things that can float on the water into the sea, and bring all your firepower... We are going to the British East India." The Corporation declares war. Get ready... We will release Calypso when the fleet of the British Navy appears on the horizon."

The pirates took action one after another. In the hustle and bustle of Shipwreck Bay all night, Lord Beckett's fleet was heading here.

The Flying Dutchman took the lead and sailed quickly to the gathering place of the pirates in the dark night.

Before, Davy Jones always tore up all the pirate ships he encountered and killed everyone, but after his heart also came to the ship, he also had to obey Beckett's order and leave some alive for interrogation.

For such a big event as Shipwreck Bay and the gathering of nine pirate kings, Beckett of course grasped the news immediately.

In fact, even without the information provided by the pirates during the interrogation, it is impossible to hide the gathering of several major pirate forces... Even after repeated attacks by the British fleet, the remnants of the nine Pirate King Ships can also organize a fleet of sufficient size to be able to pose a threat.

...But it is only a "slightly" threat.

While thinking this way, Lord Beckett, who was sitting in the captain's cabin, did not fall asleep while taking his own wine from the rotten wooden table.

His long-cherished wish for many years is about to come true, how could he fall asleep at this time?

Especially Jack Sparrow, this man... If he was only allowed to kill one pirate in his life, he would hang Sparrow's head on the stern of the boat.

The two of them have been friends for a long time...Jack is the one who stamped the P for "Pirate" with his own hand, and it is Jack who brought about his worst setback to date.

Of course, there was Norrington's betrayal recently... But such a misstep didn't have much impact on the overall situation, it just gave him a deeper understanding of people's hearts.

"My theory is not wrong. The mistake is that I was too impatient to destroy his spirit. It is impossible to achieve control without gaining the dual advantages of will and reality."

he thought silently.

As a result, Norrington, who could have been another bloodthirsty hound on his tight leash, suddenly decided to bite him back.However, although the former brigadier general fired aggressively at his flagship, the damage caused was far less serious than that of Jack.

That idle man, the most unambitious pirate in the world, seems to have a kind of magical power in him... He can always find the crux of the matter, and then use unexpected means to solve the problem.

Thinking of this, Beckett suddenly had a brilliant idea... Anyway, the Flying Dutchman is in his hands, and he can destroy the pirates at any time; even as long as the increasingly powerful British Royal Navy firmly guards the commercial routes , these rabble will sooner or later break up because they have no food to eat, even if some of them are let go this time, it doesn't matter, right?

Outside the captain's room, in the endless night, a certain octopus head was also wandering around sullenly.

Davy Jones couldn't stay in the cabin at all... Even if he was only in the same space with that heart, he would feel endless pain gnawing at his heart.

Moreover, the "Dutchman", who was supposed to sail underwater most of the time, was now forced to surface by Beckett, exposing him and the crew to the air and sunlight. He felt extremely restless.

He can only walk up to the stern of the boat under the moonlight at night and smell the sea breeze, so that he can temporarily feel better...

But this time, he saw a man in the stern who should never have been there.

Davy Jones, whose face was full of octopus tentacles, looked around and found no one else nearby, so he hesitated to walk towards the woman in a long skirt who opened her arms to the sea.

"...Calypso?"

"Yes, my love." The woman turned her head, revealing a face with strange black stripes of thorns.

Davy Jones immediately backed away hastily covering his face, but one of his hands was a crab claw... This made him panic and kept shouting: "Don't look at me, don't look at me!"

Calypso took a step forward and touched his hand.

Under the moonlight, the terrifying monstrous shape was suddenly stripped from reality, and Davy Jones opened his eyes to watch his hand return to the human form it once was.

Under the moonlight, his face turned into a middle-aged man with a long beard, and his whole body was no longer wet, as if nothing had happened.

Calypso looked at him, stroked his cheek, and said sadly, "Our story is coming to an end, and the future is in chaos. Let go, David, sleep peacefully in my arms..."

[81. No. 81]

"...No, no! You cheated me, even if it's just a short day after ten years of voyage, you don't want to come to see me!" Davy Jones tried to break free from his lover's hand, but was only held tighter.

"Believe me, I never intended to deceive you..." Calypso closed his eyes, two tears flowed down the god's face, and his expression was no longer calm.

Davy Jones reached out to wipe the tears from her face, but there was no sign of her.

In the moonlight, only his waving crab claws cast huge shadows on the deck.

Chapter 54 The Love of God

Whether the pirates are ready or not, the British Royal Navy fleet has appeared on the horizon opposite Shipwreck Bay.

In order to complete his work, Beckett mobilized almost all the sea power of the British East India Company. The shadow of the ship almost covered the entire sea level, and there was no end to be seen on both sides;

Facing such a powerful naval fleet, the pirates were naturally terrified, for fear that their lives would be lost.

Although several big pirate kings are here, and the gathered ships and manpower are not too small, but there is also the deadly messenger at sea, the Flying Dutchman, compared to their "ordinary" ships It's just like paper, I'm afraid it will be swallowed up just after meeting, right?

They couldn't really imagine how one ship could swallow another, but the Dutchman was such a horror that the horror it brought them had to be expressed in terms of this kind of rhetoric.

The only hope of solving the problem is that in the previous meeting, the newly appointed "Pirate King" has announced... to release the sea goddess Calypso.

The Black Pearl sailed out of Shipwreck Bay first, and came to the calm sea surrounded by mountains on both sides in the light of dawn.
