Now, Captain Jack wants to grab the Interceptor in order to find and catch up with the Black Pearl and reclaim his own ship.

There are countless ships on this ocean, and Captain Jack loves only his Black Pearl.

Even if he was given the strongest "Flying Dutchman", he would not change it.

As Captain Jack fiddled with the rudder, the two guards rushed in a panic with muskets in hand.

"Hey! You guys! Come down! ”

"It's not a boat you can get on!"

Captain Jack shrugged, "I'm sorry, I just wanted to try the feel." ”

The thin man asked sharply, "What's your name!" ”

Captain Jack said solemnly, "Smith! Of course, you can also call me Mies, or Xiao Shi. ”

The fat man asked, "What is the purpose of your visit to Port Royal?" Don't lie! ”

Captain Jack shrugged, "Well, I'll admit it, I'm confessing, I'm here to rob a ship, because my poor little ship has sunk, and when I've got a suitable ship, I'll go to the pirate port of Totuga to recruit some sailors to burn and loot and kill all those traitors." ”

The fat man said angrily: "I said it! Don't lie! ”

The thin man hesitated, "...... How do I think he doesn't want to be lying? ”

The fat man scoffed: "How is this possible? If he wasn't lying, how could he tell us the truth? ”

"However, if he is lying, then every word he says is false, then there is no such thing as telling the truth, and since he is telling the truth, then he is not lying."

"I think he's lying!"

"I don't think he's!"

The two guards quarreled again.

Captain Jack took the opportunity to inspect the interception and make the final preparations before setting sail.

Xu Feng, on the other hand, stood indifferently on the deck, patiently watching the two guards arguing.

…… Meanwhile.

In a military fortress on a sea cliff.

Brigadier General James Norrington's promotion ceremony has finally come to an end.

Elizabeth Swan, who was standing in the family area to watch the ceremony, stared at the scorching noon sun on the seaside and kept fanning the lady, her face was extremely ugly, and she was so out of breath that she was strangled by her waist.

The lady's fan was not originally used to fan the wind, but as a lady's casual object, used to cover her smile.

But Elizabeth was now eager to fan her fan.

James Norrington was a standard military man, tall, with a resolute face, a mouth pursed, and a calm and tado look.

He is not too young, he is thirty-five years old this year.

Because of his perennial navigation in the ocean, he delayed his marriage.

Now that he has been promoted to brigadier general, he can be stationed in Port Royal for a long time, instead of flying between England and the Caribbean himself, and he will naturally have time to think about life's work.

He greeted the ceremonial sword array prepared for him by the sailors, and slowly walked towards Governor Swann with his hands behind his back.

Governor Swan smiled happily at his "future son-in-law".

He knew early on that today was not only a matter of James' promotion to brigadier general, but also that James would propose to Elizabeth, the jewel of his palm—a gentleman's act that he had allowed in advance.

Governor Swan was very satisfied with James, and in the eyes of Governor Swan, this brigadier general was very reliable and calm, and his status was detached, and he had a great future in the future.

If he could marry James Norrington, he would really become the Emperor of Port Royal.

As for the age gap between James and Elizabeth, Governor Swan didn't care.

The most important thing for a man is identity and ability, not appearance and age.

As long as the two families can marry strongly, his future grandson can continue to inherit the fat territory of Port Royal, and their family will prosper for generations.

Thinking of the bright future, the smile on Governor Swan's face became even brighter.

James walked through the ceremonial knife formation with a steady step, and stood straight in front of Governor Swan.

Governor Swan took out the royal edict and read out James Norrington's promotion aloud in public, and then happily took out the "Broken Water" sword from the luxurious sword box.

James drew his water breaker, swung it expertly, and returned it to its sheath.

"Thank you, Governor."

Governor Swan smiled and said, "Brigadier General, how is this sword?" ”

“…… Very good. ”

"This is what old blacksmith Brown spent half his life forging, and I spent 500 gold coins for it!"

"Thank you very much." James was a little bad at words, but he was very grateful to Governor Swan.

Governor Swan smiled, "Today is your big day, I wish you success." ”

"Okay."

James took a deep breath and nodded at Governor Swan.

When the promotion ceremony was over, everyone was laughing and laughing, and Elizabeth breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to return to the carriage.

James walked over with his hands behind his back, "...... Elizabeth, I have something to tell you. ”

Elizabeth's face was full of pain, "Wouldn't it be possible to change the day?" ”

"Nope." James was straight to the point.

Elizabeth sighed, "Okay, let's talk about it quickly." ”

James looked left and right, "There are a lot of people here, let's go to the lookout over there." ”

Elizabeth looked at the steep steps and nodded helplessly.

Why go to the lookout?

Because of the wide view from there, the scenery of Port Royal is in full view.

In a picturesque place, people's mood is naturally good, and when people's mood is good, the probability of a successful marriage proposal will naturally be greatly improved.

James walked to the lookout in a muffled voice, and Elizabeth followed behind James, climbing one step after another with difficulty.

She couldn't breathe for a while, and now she was even more uncomfortable.

The guards on the lookout had already been arranged by James, and there were only James and Elizabeth on the entire platform.

Elizabeth leaned against the wall and fanned her fan with a painful expression.

"You look beautiful, Elizabeth." James said.

Elizabeth's face was covered in fine sweat and her expression was embarrassed, and she had to try her best to pretend to be happy in response to James, "Thank you, Brigadier General." ”

James cleared his throat, put his hands behind his back, and shifted his gaze to the vast ocean, "I want to apologize for my abruptness and presumptuousness, although I am sorry, I must say what I think." ”

He did not dare to look Elizabeth into the eyes.

Although on the battlefield, he can face the threat of death, but in the love field, he is not as nervous as a recruit.

He swallowed hard, opened his mouth, and continued for a long time: "...... This promotion has made me feel relieved. I am in my thirties this year, and I am proud and proud of the quickest and youngest brigadier general of the English navy, and of course it is inseparable from the cooperation of your father, Governor Swan. ”

He is obviously proposing, but he is still full of official words.

Elizabeth behind him turned pale, and every breath seemed extremely laborious.
