It is not common for pirates to find their prey right in front of them but unable to take action.
In the current situation, the Vader is the strongest, followed by the Jackdaw, and the unknown pirate ship is at the bottom, but this is only relative. In fact, the latter's ship and firepower configuration are quite good among pirates. , but today I was unlucky, I met two more perverted ones, and now no one among the three parties has the ability to swallow the prey alone.
No matter who strikes first, they will inevitably be double-teamed by the other two sides, and the sailors on the Spear of the Goddess will not sit still and wait for death. So five minutes later, the Vida took the lead in signaling and invited the captains of the other two ships to share the spoils. Negotiate distribution issues.
As the first pirate ship to discover the Spear of the Goddess, the Vader obviously didn't want to drag it on any longer. Although the goods on the Spear of the Goddess were valuable, the share between the three ships was not that generous. And if someone else joined, then this would There's not much to gain from this busy life, so it's better to try your luck by robbing passing merchant ships.
"The Black Prince has a good reputation in Nassau. He is a very loyal person, which is why his men are willing to follow him." Billy said, "Although he is on the side of the Black Merchant Alliance now, he will not Because this kind of thing is a stumbling block for us, it seems that there is no good solution except negotiation, so we can talk about it first."
Zhang Heng nodded. He and Billy agreed, so he said, "Send a message to the Vinda and I will come over."
The unknown pirate ship on the other side was a little confused. Although they had heard of the Black Prince, this was their first time contacting them. They didn't know how many of those rumors were true, but seeing Zhang Heng and the others, they had given up. If he didn't get through, he was worried that the two parties would form an alliance and kill them first, so he had to send out a small boat in the end.
Because it was a negotiation, Zhang Heng brought not many people, only Dufresne and one other pirate. In order to prevent accidents, both Billy and Annie stayed on the Jackdaw.
The reason why Zhang Heng agreed so decisively was not only because of Black Prince Sam's good reputation, but also because he still had [Shadow Moment] on him. With this thing around, if something unexpected happened, he would not be able to return to Jackdaw. You can also escape nearby.
On the other hand, the captain on the other side was very nervous. He brought eight men armed to the teeth and looked like he was facing a powerful enemy.
Black Prince Sam did not attend the previous dinner at Terrance Manor for unknown reasons, so this was also the first time Zhang Heng saw him.
To his surprise, the pirate captain who was as famous as Blackbeard looked not much older than him. He was only twenty-six or seventeen years old. He had blue eyes and long black hair, and wore it casually with a belt. Tie up into a ponytail, if Tikki feels like a mountain in the dark, then Sam is like the first ray of sunshine in the morning.
His smile is contagious and can make people forget all their worries. No wonder his nickname has the word "prince" in it. It has nothing to do with how he dresses or even his profession. Some people are born to be kings and make people around them willing to do so. Follow him.
The pirate group led by Sam is also the most stable pirate group in Nassau. No one has ever challenged his position since he became the captain, and no one has even had similar thoughts.
There are many legends about him. It is said that he often used his share of the spoils to subsidize the wounded and dead in battles. He did not have his own residence on the shore and woke up in a different place every day. He was also very generous to prisoners. As early as when he first became a pirate, after robbing ships, he would give away his old ships to the poor people so that they could escape. Sometimes he would even distribute the stolen money to the poor on the island, so his Pirate groups often call themselves the Band of Thieves.
When Zhang Heng observed Black Prince Sam, the latter's eyes also fell on him. I don't know if it was his illusion, but Zhang Heng felt that Sam seemed to be surprisingly friendly towards him.
"Captain Zhang Heng, I have long admired you. Recently, the streets of Nassau are talking about you and your Jackdaw. I should have met you earlier, but fortunately it is not too late now." Sam smiled and extended his hand. go.
Another group of people who came up later saw something amiss. Apparently they didn't expect Zhang Hen and Sam to come from the same place. Seeing that the two of them were still planning to continue talking, the guy who looked like a captain quickly interrupted, "Time is precious, all of us." They probably don’t want anyone else to join, so let’s start negotiations quickly.”
Black Prince Sam nodded when he heard this and said politely, "I wonder what your name is?"
"I am Hutcheson, the captain of the Winter. My crew and I have been chasing this whaler for more than a month. It is our prey. If you two are willing to return it to me, you will also get the Winter." No.'s friendship," Hutcheson said.
"There is never a first-come, first-served basis in this sea area." On the other side, the black helmsman of the Vader sneered when he heard this.
"Based on the strength comparison between our three parties, I think four, four, three is a more reasonable division plan." Black Prince Sam didn't want to go around in circles on meaningless things, and directly gave what he thought was a reasonable division plan.
"I have no problem with you getting 40% like us. After all, I have heard of the name of the Vader, but with all due respect, why does this guy get 30%? I have been in this sea area for so long and I have never heard of anything. Jackdaw, just because he comes from the same place as you?”
"The other 40% I mentioned was given to him instead of to you. The reason is simple, because he owns a battleship."
"Huh, since when did this sea area start to measure the strength of a pirate group by the quality of its ships? From now on, everyone doesn't have to do anything, just compete with the ships every time we meet." Hutcheson's eyes widened. Eye.
Black Prince Sam frowned, "Watch your wording, Captain Hutcheson. We respect you, that's why we ask you to negotiate together. If you don't know how to respect others, this negotiation won't be able to proceed."
"Okay, 30% makes 30%, but I want to pick two things first, and then we will divide the remaining goods according to this ratio."
"We all know that the most valuable thing on the ship is the ambergris. If you picked those things away first when you came up, what else do we have to share?" the black helmsman of the Vader couldn't help but said again.
"I'm sorry, I thought this was just a discussion between captains?" the captain of the Severe Winter complained.
"Eric." Black Prince Sam looked at his helmsman, who shrugged, "I'm going to see if those boys on the second deck are lazy."
