Chapter 460: The Age of Barbarism
David Jones roared in displeasure.
Although he didn't care if his boat stinked or not, being told to his face by others was tantamount to an offense to him.
Beckett said coldly: "David Jones, you have not completed the mission I gave you. ”
David Jones said viciously: "Isn't it enough that all the ships that passed by me for you, except for the ships of your British Empire, all the trade ships and warships of other countries were destroyed by the raid of my flying Dutchman?" ”
Beckett said coldly: "Not enough, what I want is not complete destruction, but a captive, do you know what it means to be captive?" Let's do the math with you, an ordinary merchant ship, the minimum value is 10,000 gold coins, plus the goods they carry, if they are captured, we can get at least 20,000 gold coins, not to mention, we capture their crew, we can let their relatives take money to redeem them, these profits are counted, a ship can bring us at least 30,000 gold coins. ”
"But what about you?"
"No matter if you don't ask, just open fire, even people and ships with goods, and all of them will be blown up together, do you know how much this will cost me?" Beckett said coldly.
David Jones gritted his teeth, "I'm not your soldier!" And I don't need money! ”
Beckett nodded, "Of course you are not my soldier, if you were my soldier, other countries would find an excuse to attack me, you are just a tool to do things for me in secret." Of course you don't need money, but I do. Otherwise, what am I possessing your heart for? ”
David Jones said hatefully, "Give me back my heart!" ”
Beckett sneered: "I will, but not now!" Now, you are to accept my punishment for not completing my commands. ”
David Jones said angrily, "I am the captain of the Flying Dutchman, and no one can punish me on this ship. ”
Beckett smiled coldly, turned around and opened the Soul Gathering Coffin, and David Jones's heart was immediately revealed.
David Jones subconsciously wanted to rush forward, but James blocked Beckett with his sword.
Beckett reached out and picked up David Jones' beating heart and squeezed it a little harder.
David Jones let out a painful roar at once, his legs went limp, he clutched his heart, and fell heavily on the deck.
Beckett smiled contemptuously: "David Jones, do you now know who your real master is?" ”
David Jones gritted his teeth and said no more.
He only hoped that this punishment would end as soon as possible, and such punishment was not only painful, but also accompanied by a strong sense of humiliation.
Beckett took David Jones's heart and played with it in his hand, "I want you to remember today's scene and remember who is your real master." Each of my subordinates is absolutely not allowed to make mistakes, and anyone who makes a mistake must be punished accordingly. ”
"Your captaincy has been temporarily stripped away, and when you will be reinstated, it will depend on your own performance." Beckett put David Jones' heart back in the Soul Gathering Coffin, then pulled out a handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully.
David Jones stood up with difficulty, and said angrily: "You can punish me, but I am the captain of the Flying Dutchman, and my crew only obeys my orders!" No one else wants to command them! ”
Beckett smiled faintly, "Of course, I have also considered the problem you mentioned, so I plan to send a captain to directly control you, so that you can control the entire ship." Lord James! ”
James was stunned, then stood up and said, "Yes, Lord Lord." ”
Beckett laughed: "Now, you have a new ship, the Flying Dutchman, which is yours." You pick two guards to guard Davy Jones' heart, and I'll leave you a fleet of marines to command. ”
James hurriedly said, "Yes." ”
It's definitely not a glorious thing!
Beckett asked him to stay on the flying Dutchman, clearly because he wanted him to be hacked for it in the future!
The Flying Dutchman is a ghost pirate ship, and what they are doing now is not to fight pirates, but to fight ships of other countries, both commercial, military, and even civilian!
This is true national piracy!
It's not reasonable at all!
Sooner or later, such behavior will be questioned by several other countries, and at that time, he James will be the scapegoat!
As for Beckett, he is naturally protected by the Dongindu Trading Company, and he will not have a bad reputation at all.
Moreover, the Dongindu Trading Company will also form a complete hegemonic route on the sea, even if other countries want to resist, it is already too late.
What a time of barbarism!
What fairness and justice, all false! Between countries, it is bigger than whose fist is bigger!
James understood, but couldn't resist.
The reason why Beckett has succeeded in reaching the top of his life is that he can treat everyone as his tools, which he can use or throw away when necessary.
And as a tool, it has no ability to resist.
James could only agree.
He picked the thin and fat guards from before, and Beckett left a squad of heavily armed sailors on the Flying Dutchman.
In this way, James became the new captain of the Flying Dutchman, and David Jones became the first mate.
Before Beckett left, he glanced coldly at David Jones, who was full of disgruntle, "Remember, you have already made a mistake once, don't think I dare not destroy you, the reason why you dirty seabed are still alive is because you still have the value of being used." So, don't let me down. ”
With that, Beckett returned to his Struggle, and then the Struggle slowly left.
"Captain, what shall we do?"
The boatswain lowered his voice and asked David Jones.
David Jones looked at James, and then at the Soul Gathering Box behind James, and the octopus tentacles on his face suddenly curled and twitched, "...... Obey the captain's orders! ”
“…… Be! ”
The water ghosts who were gradually approaching James retreated.
James breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said coldly: "Keep sailing, don't dive, interrogate ships when you encounter them, and then board the ship to fight, don't fire at will." ”
"Yes." David Jones replied humiliatingly.
The flying Dutchman then hoisted its sails and sailed out on the vast sea.
The two guards, one fat and one thin, also entered the captain's room with the Soul Gathering Coffin, and if there was any crisis situation, they would shatter Davy Jones's heart with their cannons.
