"Have you heard his story?"
"Whose story?" asked the aristocratic man wearing a silver wig across the table. He looked obviously nervous when facing the man in front of him.
“The Story of the King of the Caribbean.”
"This sea area belongs to England, and there is only one king in England, and that is King George." The noble man retorted, but even he could hear the harshness in his tone.
The bearded man opposite didn't pay attention and continued talking to himself. His voice was low and calm, like a giant whale swimming in the depths of the sea.
"He had many names. The black slaves called him the Liberator of the New World because he often attacked passing slave ships and freed the black slaves on board. The pirates called him the Lord of the Seven Seas. The pirate code he formulated regulated the nearby areas. Piracy in the sea, and the rule of only plundering goods and not hurting or insulting women's families, were even well received by businessmen. The Admiralty called him the nightmare of the Royal Navy. In the past ten years, he had robbed and sunk no less than ten naval ships. The battleship has evaded countless joint searches. Pirate hunters call him hunter-killer. Wherever his black flag reaches, even the bravest hunters will retreat."
The man paused for a moment before saying, "Do you have any wine?"
The noble man didn't like this kind of situation where the other party was completely in control of the initiative. Even though there were four fully armed guards behind him, being in the same room with the other party still made him feel like he had stepped into a beast's cage. He had loosened his collar more than once.
He wanted to warn the other party righteously, letting the bearded man know that he was just a prisoner and not a guest here, but when he reached his mouth, the words changed to, "Give him a glass of port wine."
The bearded man took the wine and thanked him, moistened his throat and continued.
"Seven years ago, he led a group of pirates to ambush the new leader of Nassau, Roger Wood, and sank the latter's car during the battle, turning Nassau into a truly free place."
"The land of freedom? But we took that place back three years ago." The noble man finally found a place where he could gain the upper hand.
"Yes, you pardoned all the pirates in Nassau except him, and you also convinced the island's largest black marketeer, his staunchest ally to betray him, but the reason why you really won this battle was because of himself Gave up at the last moment.”
The aristocratic man was speechless. He had always had a good relationship with Roger Wood. Although the latter was rescued after falling into the water during the battle seven years ago, he failed to recover. Whenever he heard that name, his expression changed drastically. , Roger Wood also participated in the battle of recapture three years ago and served as a naval advisor. However, he himself was very pessimistic about the outcome of the battle. He once personally told the noble man that even if Nassau could be captured in the end, the navy would still pay. Heavy price.
But in the end, the Jackdaw quietly left the night before the war. In the end, with the help of Karina, the navy recaptured Nassau without bloodshed.
Roger Wood became the new governor of Nassau, and Karina became his special advisor.
"It is said that his deeds have traveled across the sea over the years. His name is talked about everywhere in the streets of London, Lisbon and Paris. Even King George has asked people about his legend. What about you, do you think he is a What kind of person?" The bearded man raised his head and looked into the noble man's eyes.
The latter subconsciously looked away, but then he realized that this action was too weak. Out of the honor of the nobles, he quickly moved his eyes back and looked at the opposite person without hesitation.
"Some fools and lower-class people call him the King of the Caribbean. Others believe that he is favored by the goddess of the sea and has immortality and the ability to control storms. But in my eyes, he is just a notorious pirate leader. When As he hangs on the gallows, twitching and struggling, we will know whether he is really, as the language says, forever unkillable."
The noble man quickly finished the above sentence, and then his face became serious, and he said to the bearded man, "Captain Zhang Heng, I include but are not limited to engaging in piracy, killing, looting, attacking the Royal Navy, contempt You have been formally arrested on charges such as the King of England, and your trial will be held in London at that time, and you can also defend yourself at that time."
After speaking, he stood up and waved, and the guards behind him walked towards the bearded man with muskets in hand.
"I'm afraid I can't wait that long." Zhang Heng's expression remained unchanged and he glanced at the watch in his hand. The hour hand on it had already completed one circle and two spaces.
This also means that he has been in this script for a full 3900 days, and he can't even tell which side is the real world.
"I have asked many people, and they said that your family is the most powerful in the New World, so please tell others and tell them what you have seen. My request is very simple. Cancel the investigation of Annie and the Jackdaw. The navy no longer targets the Jackdaw as the other crew members are wanted, otherwise I could also sneak into your bedroom without anyone noticing."
"Do you know what you are talking about?" The noble man raised his eyebrows, "You dare to threaten me in your current state? The reason why I have been so polite to you is because of my cultivation. It does not mean that I really can't do it. Evil people." After saying that, he winked at the two strongest guards behind him.
The two put down their muskets, moved their wrists and walked towards Zhang Heng.
The latter was sitting calmly on the chair. When one of them was about to land his fist on his face, the next moment, Zhang Heng's body suddenly disappeared.
His vision went dark, and the familiar sound sounded in his ears again.
[Return deadline reached, mission completed confirmed...]
[Complete the copy of Black Sail, the fourth round of the game is over, and you are about to return to the real world...]

"Tsk, tsk, you look terrible, and you look like a different person." The bartender at the bar skillfully mixed a glass of whiskey and pushed it in front of Zhang Heng, "But," she paused After a moment, his tone changed, "I quite like you now. You seem to have a lot of stories to tell. Girls always have no resistance to such men."
Zhang Heng took the whiskey and said, "What time is it now?"
He was a little unaccustomed to his current voice, just as he was unaccustomed to this young body.
