A common tavern that connects all fantasy worlds

His Majesty the Pirate King does not have his own ship... so only Captain Jack Sparrow, who voted for her and chose to support her, can contribute his own ship.

The witch Tia Doma slowly walked onto the bow, holding her skirt.

Luo Sanpao on one side still didn't understand what was going on, so he couldn't help touching his head, and asked Jack beside him, "'Captain'...what are you doing? Why do you all have such expressions?"

Jack touched the compass hanging on his chest, smiled at the pirate who came from another world, and first asked a seemingly completely unrelated question: "Speaking of it, Luo, you have figured out what this compass is Where is it pointing?"

Luo Sanpao narrowed his eyes and nodded: "This thing will always point to what you want most."

"That's right, even if that thing has never appeared in the world, it can still point out the direction accurately... because this is the power of magic. I got this thing from Tia Doma, she made it, And cast magic to make it have this supernatural power. So you guess, can a 'witch''s magic power do this?"

While talking, Jack looked at the graceful figure: "...Not to mention, she even fished out Barbossa. Do you remember what we said... The ruler of the sea of ​​dead is the goddess Calypso..."

Luo Sanpao is not stupid, he turned his head around a little, then stared and asked in shock: "...then the fortune teller is a goddess?"

"...Can't you have some basic respect for the gods?!"

Jack was really speechless by Luo Sanpao's fearless character, but thinking about it... didn't he respect her too much?

No matter how hard you make excuses for her, saying "this is the characteristic of the sea itself", "she is just the personification of the fickle side of the ocean", it can't erase what she has done to human beings.

The gods are indifferent to good and evil, and cannot be judged from a human moral perspective. They act as they please, which is especially vividly reflected in the Greek gods.They play with the fate of human beings and control the joys and sorrows of the world, but human beings can never touch them...

Jack didn't know what metaphor to use to describe the "God"'s behavior style. After thinking about it, maybe it was a group of brats of higher creatures?Part of their attitude towards humans is like the attitude of young humans towards ants. They like to observe their actions, wonder about their characteristics, and occasionally want to pour boiling water into the ant holes.

As for the other part... well, think about how all those demigod heroes in Greece came to be.

Calypso, too, is at her most amiable form only in a certain Greek epic.

The brazier was placed on the bow of the ship, and the tokens of the nine pirate kings had already been held in the hands of the people sent by them, and the ceremony could be held only after the pirate king Elizabeth Swan gave an order.

At this time, Barbosa stopped pretending, walked to the side of the witch Tia Doma, took off his hat and bowed to his chest, saying: "You saved my life... I I have also fulfilled my promise. Goddess Calypso, you will return to the sea..."

Tia Doma looked thoughtful. Hearing what he said, she turned her head and asked him calmly: "...From now on, no human being can control me anymore. Let me The idea of ​​helping you destroy the British fleet is likely to come to nothing, aren't you worried at all?"

"Ah... As Jack said before, you may hate us, but the real threat to your existence is the British fleet and the East India Company behind them." Barbosa shrugged, "And, you Don't want to know, how did the pirates know how to seal you? Who gave us such crucial information?"

"……who is it?"

Tia Doma, or Calypso already had a hunch, but still stared at his face and asked this crucial question.

I heard Barbosa say, "It's... Davy Jones."

At the same time, the brazier on the Black Pearl has been lit, and the tokens of the nine pirate kings have been thrown in one after another, and the necklace that Elizabeth Swan got from Sao Feng is no exception.

Jack came over with the fuse in his hand and took a look at Calypso. Seeing that she was weeping and closed her eyes, without wasting any more time, she reached out and ignited the lamp oil in the brazier.

"...Calypso, I now free you from human blood and bone."

As the fire rose, bursts of blue smoke emerged from the small brazier and shot straight into the sky.

Calypso didn't seem to hear it, and knelt on the bow of the Black Pearl, leaning on the deck with both hands, weeping weakly.Her figure suddenly became bigger and bigger, and she was soon higher than the mainmast, pushing the bow of the Black Pearl and flipping forward. go to sea.

Suddenly, the goddess' body turned into pieces from the head, collapsing like a sand sculpture on the beach.It wasn't until the fragments of her body fell on everyone that they realized what kind of sand it was... It was obviously white crabs of various sizes.

In a few seconds, Calypso's body, which was tens of feet high, completely disappeared, shattered into a boat full of crabs, and then rushed into the sea from the side of the boat.

The sea became calm again, as if nothing had happened.

Elizabeth jumped up and down to avoid the crab that hadn't slipped away at her feet, and turned to Barbosa, "What's going on, what should we do now?"

Leaning on the fence surrounding the bow deck, Barbossa replied without any surprise: "Wait."

I hope that the Goddess can do what they wish...then leave after the Flying Dutchman and Davy Jones are dealt with.

However, the ship was still flaunting its power and floating on the sea, and it was heading towards Shipwreck Bay. It seemed that everyone's calculations had finally come to nothing.

Just then, the British fleet stopped.

Out of the black, breathless line of battle suddenly a small boat came rowing.

Everyone on the Black Pearl looked at the boat approaching in confusion, and there was a man in an officer's uniform standing proudly on board, holding a loudspeaker and shouting: "Lord Beckett's order... If the shipwreck bay Anyone who is willing to hand over all the people who call themselves the "Pirate King", disarm the ship, and push all the cannons into the sea is free to go. Before the sun comes directly overhead, you'd better make a wise choice! "

While the pirates on the Black Pearl looked at each other, the boat rowed back again, apparently to convey the same message to the other pirate ships.

"...What does Beckett want to do?" Barbossa felt something was wrong.

Jack smiled, turned his head and said softly: "Isn't it normal for pirates to betray each other, Hector? If the goddess doesn't show her power, this is the end of you and me..."

"Come on, don't you always have a way out." Barbosa curled his lips, "I hate many things about you, but the most annoying thing... is your unreasonable good luck. Annoying."

The two pirates wanted to say something, but they raised their heads in unison.

In the originally clear sky, suddenly clusters of dark clouds appeared from nowhere, and quickly covered and enveloped the entire Shipwreck Bay.Looking around, the sky and the earth became dark.

Immediately afterwards, a strong wind blew on the sea.

Davy Jones, who was standing on the deck of the Flying Dutchman, was also looking at the sky. After a few seconds, he suddenly realized something, and immediately strode back to the direction of the cabin, and pushed open the door of the captain's cabin.

"My lord...you should leave. This time the problem is serious, we may have to go into the submarine..."

He didn't care what Lord Beckett thought.Although he didn't see what happened on the Black Pearl before, but judging from the sudden change in the weather, the pirates should have released Calypso!

I can't remember how many years ago the scene was once again evoked in his memory.

It was the same that day, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and the sea was very windy and rough.

He was then a sailor who was making his living at sea like the others, and had to come nearer to the shore, to some small island.

While the sailors were nervously repairing the ship, he walked into the depths of the island alone and came to the cave.

The goddess Calypso was there, and she looked at him and smiled and said, "Brave sailor, you are the second person who dared to go deep into Ojjiu..."

At that time, from the first time I saw her, Davy Jones was completely sunk.

He didn't even think carefully about Calypso's next words: "The love of God is something far heavier than the wrath of God... Davy Jones."

Chapter 55 Sinking the Kraken

Beckett, who thought that everything was under control, never thought of such a thing as a "god", and of course he never expected to stand against a god.

What the hell is a sea god? Shouldn't it be a personified "idol" derived from the ancient Greeks' fear of natural disasters!How could it really exist!

The whole world was made by God, and these heretics...these heretics must have got their power from a fickle devil!

God will punish sinners like them, he will...

The "sinner" that Beckett had in mind, of course, did not include himself.He killed many local natives in the process of developing the colony, and he also loaded ship after ship of slaves from the Gold Coast and transported them back to Europe or the other side of the ocean, but those were all ways to obtain wealth... …How are heathens worthy to possess gold, spices, and fertile land?

Although there are people in the church who are devoted to "love" and "virtue" and believe that all people are born equal, there are more "religious believers" like Lord Beckett with a strong pioneering spirit.In this era, it is quite common for a missionary to be accompanied by a few slaves.

The act of enslaving and buying and selling human beings has also become a kind of salvation-if the natives of the colonies and the black people of the Gold Coast are willing to believe in God, then of course they are not heretics; They spread civilization, how can they know the glory of God?

First of all, they are barbaric, we are civilized, and we accept them into the civilized world; secondly, we occupy more land, that is, spread the glory of God more widely; finally, our wealth comes from our hard work, Private property is sacrosanct.

How consistent the logic is!

It is precisely because all actions are carried out in the name of the gods, in the name of the king granted by the gods, that he cannot accept the statement about "Calypso" at this time.

Obviously, though, not everything has to go his way.

In just a short while, it was impossible and unnecessary for him to disembark again... A strong wind and waves suddenly rolled up in the bay, and the small boats sent to the pirates capsized. The British officers and soldiers climbed ashore by relying on the pirates who couldn't stand it in the port.

In the middle of the tense sea area that was about to become a battlefield, the sea water gradually began to turn.The faster and faster sea water converges towards the center, forming a vortex with a diameter of several hundred meters and a bottom that is so deep that it cannot be seen.

The Black Pearl and the Flying Dutchman are within the influence of the vortex, the hulls have already begun to tilt slightly, and they are about to slide into the bottomless abyss.

At this moment, he couldn't care less, the old pirate Barbossa had already shouted: "Hold up the sails, set up the sails! Speed ​​up the boat, don't be swept down by the current!"

The people on the boat moved quickly, but Jack Sparrow rushed down, grabbed Barbossa, and shouted in his ear: "Hector, go to the helm!"

Barbosa, who was yelling to direct the crew to work, froze for a moment. He never thought that he would hear these words from Jack Sparrow again in his life.

Under normal circumstances, when two people were awake on the boat at the same time, he always held the steering wheel and refused to let go.

That's right, after all, it's the captain's prerogative to "decide which way the boat will go"... After being betrayed by him, Barbossa, Jack attaches great importance to this aspect.

But today I don't know if Jack has changed his sex, and he took the initiative to hand over the helm, and he seems to be sane, not drunk.

"What are you doing, Jack?" He still asked subconsciously, but Jack pointed to the front of the hull.

Barbosa raised his head quickly, and saw that the Flying Dutchman had skillfully rushed towards this side through the water flow around the vortex.Although the distance between the two ships is still far, if you don't control the ship to move now, you will definitely be caught up and killed.

Not only that, the sharp-eyed old pirate could vaguely see that under the dark clouds, in the depths of the dark waves, there was a huge black shadow approaching from the water.

That was Kraken. This deep-sea monster was so huge that it was not even affected by the vortex, and it moved much faster in the water than the Dutchman. It was about to pounce on the Black Pearl and entangle it.

"... Hold the rudder, don't let it rush over. Even if you get entangled, use the stern to face it, and trick it to the surface of the sea!"

As Jack said, he turned around and rushed into the cabin, calling Luo Sanpao and his brothers.

"Okay, you little bastard who knows how to manipulate people. I hope you have a way to deal with that big guy!"

Hector scolded, not at all hamstrung this time, and grabbed the rail and jumped onto the helm, took hold of the handle on the wheel, and shouted, "Sidesail! Sidesail! Hold on to the ropes, Don't fucking fall into the water, no one has time to fish you!"

Under his control, the Black Pearl turned its head with difficulty, cutting through the ocean currents around the vortex, and gradually increased its speed.

This ship deserves to be the fastest ship in the Caribbean Sea... But no matter how fast they moved, it was obviously not as fast as that huge sea monster.

Kraken avoided the center of the vortex, pushed away the seawater under the fastest-flowing ocean current, and chased after the shadow of the Black Pearl. Barbosa, who was always staring at the sea, could already see the black shadow like an abyss .Even the surface of the sea was swelled by its rising movement, and a huge wave like a hill rolled over immediately, hitting the stern of the Black Pearl, and almost swept several sailors into the sea.

While Barbossa anxiously commanded the sailors, relying on his skilled ship handling skills and using the ocean currents to evade Kraken's pursuit, he anxiously looked over to the cabin.

I don't know what Jack is doing down here... The monster is about to catch up!

Just as he was thinking, he saw Luo Sanpao and a Chinese man he had seen on the Interceptor walk out of the cabin, as if he was carrying something behind him.

Jack followed closely behind, and together they lifted out a long wooden box, and called Turner and Elizabeth to help.

Judging from the way they struggled, the things in the box were still very heavy.

Soon, several people rushed to the stern, tied a few cables behind the helm position, opened the box again, pressed a pile of heavy objects on the iron frame and the strange-shaped cylinder inside, and fixed it. in the stern.

"What is this?" cried Barbossa.The thunder rumbled in the sky, and the waves crashed in the sea. If he didn't shout loudly, no one could hear what he was talking about.

"……torpedo!"

Jack yelled back at the same volume, and stretched out his hand to signal Barbossa to get out of the way.

I saw another tall and strong man coming out next to him. When Barbosa was wondering that he hadn’t seen him on the Black Pearl, he saw him press the cylinder a few times, and then he hugged his head in a panic. ran down the stairs.

"Launch in 1 minute and 30 seconds!"

The man was still shouting something, squatting under the stairs and hugging his head tightly.

Kraken, the giant monster of the North Sea, has already revealed his figure behind the Black Pearl, and its huge tentacles are twisting towards the stern of the Black Pearl, slowing down the black pearl that was dragging its full sail.

If it has human wisdom and can speak human language, it must be full of complaints now.

After sinking so many ships and devouring so many sailors over the years, never has a ship been dragged to the bottom of the ocean and resurfaced again!

Maybe because he sensed Jack's annoying aura, this big guy climbed up along the stern, swung his tentacles across the deck, whipped a dozen people into the sea, and at the same time entangled the mainmast of the Black Pearl. Force the whole body out of the water.

A few people standing at the stern looked up and saw the big guy opened his mouth to this.

There are layers of fangs in that terrifying mouth. If one bites from it, not only will his life be lost immediately, but even a complete and identifiable corpse will not be left behind.

Just when Barbosa was feeling desperate, a burst of fire burst out from the buttocks of the "torpedo" in the steel frame. out.

The thing shattered the stern rail and bounced off the deck, right into the Kraken's gaping mouth.

[82. No. 82]

Hearing a "boom", a large orange flame exploded deep in Kraken's mouth, and the bloody flesh was torn from the mouth, crushed into fine foam by the impact, and sprayed with black pearls. The boat is full.

Even from such a distance, Barbossa, who had just raised his head, could vaguely see, on the other side of the vortex, on the Flying Dutchman, that octopus head was yelling furiously.

Kraken's tentacles fell limply and hit the water around the Black Pearl.The entire mouth of this creature, which could be a big octopus, was blown apart, as well as the head behind the mouth. There was no possibility of survival anymore, so it could only let go of the stern of the Black Pearl and fall into the deep sea.

After being brought to the bottom of the sea by the maelstrom, its flesh and blood must have given the nearby marine creatures a perfect meal... This huge monster, who lived for an unknown number of years, finally returned to the embrace of the ocean.

The sailors who managed to escape from the giant beast's tentacles got up and quickly regained control of the Black Pearl, ignoring the pile of rotten and smoking pieces of meat on the deck, telling it to continue Stabilized its direction in the ocean current, and gradually drove out of the vortex.

It's just that the Dutchman behind has also been chasing closer and closer.

"...Do you still have that 'torpedo'?" Barbossa got up and held the tiller again, his ears were still buzzing, and he had to pat himself on the head before he could ask normally.

"It's useless, the Dutchman is not a 'live' thing, that ship has been destroyed in artillery battles on more than one occasion, but every time it takes a turn under the water, it will emerge again intact "Jack said as he plucked a piece of meat from his hat and tossed it aside with a disgusted face.

"Then what to do now?" Barbossa asked again.

Jack took out the compass in his arms, carefully looked at the direction it was pointing, and his eyes suddenly changed.

"... Davy Jones' heart... lies on board the Dutchman!"
