The next day.

Although the city of San Maarten has not lifted martial law, life of the citizens is business as usual.

After Henry escaped from the shelter, he found a nameless island and hid.

Sint Maarten is an archipelago, of which Sint Maarten is the main island, and around Sint Maarten, there are many scattered, uninhabited and developed islands.

Maple and Jack are on another nameless island.

The guards of Sint Maarten wanted to thoroughly survey all the islands in a short time, which was impossible.

After dawn, Iron Hammer took Yang Gong, who had not yet woken up, to investigate the suitable place for building a shipyard, and Xu Feng also went to St. Martin City alone to investigate the situation.

After all, the blood moon is coming soon, and the final boss Salazar will soon be unsealed, so they must hurry up and get ready.

Jack slept until noon, as usual.

Maple left Jack food and wine, enough for him to be dashing like this for a whole month.

The first thing Jack did when he woke up was to grab a bottle of rum and take a few sips to sober himself up.

He was alone, drinking until evening, and Xu Feng and the others had not returned.

Jack suddenly felt that even rum was tasteless.

He took out the bottle in his arms and placed it on the side of the boat, facing the sea.

From a certain angle, the Black Pearl in the drifting bottle maintains a parallel line with the sea, as if the Black Pearl is really sailing on the sea.

A long-lost smile appeared on Jack's face, but it quickly dimmed.

How long has it been since he's sailed with pleasure?

Decade?

No, twenty years, I'm afraid.

The Black Pearl is his life, and after the Black Pearl was sealed, he also lost himself on land, and relied on alcohol to numb himself every day.

His ideals, his ambitions, are all about to be annihilated.

He opened his wish compass, and the hands of the wish compass pointed clearly to the sea.

He wanted to sail, he wanted to ride the waves, he didn't want to go on like this.

Jack jerked up the rum bottle and tried to smash it, but eventually slowly put it to his lips and poured all the rum out of the bottle.

After all, rum is innocent, guilty, depressed self.

After Jack drank the rum, he took the drifting bottle and the wish compass in his arms, staggered off the Dying Seagull, climbed into a small boat, and rowed in the direction of St. Martin.

He had just robbed the bank of Sint Maarten, and it was dangerous to enter Sint Maarten at this time.

However, instead of going to the city center, he took advantage of the cover of night to go to a shop with the door closed and the lights on.

The store is a typical black market store that accepts all illegal goods, whatever it is, and sells stolen goods here.

Jack knocked on the door, and a low question came from inside, "What are you selling?" ”

"A treasure." Jack said vaguely.

After waiting for a moment, the closed room creaked open, and a scrawny, cold-faced man opened the door and tilted his head to signal Jack to come in.

"The great Captain Jack Sparrow has been reduced to selling things to me." After closing the door, the black market shopkeeper crooked his lips and smiled.

Jack shrugged, "Who said I had to sell?" Unless you give me a good price. ”

The black market shopkeeper scoffed, "Then see what you want to sell, if you're selling a fake treasure map, then you don't have to take it out." ”

Jack grinned, "Of course not. What I'm going to sell is ...... This one. ”

As he spoke, he pulled out the drifting bottle from his bosom.

The black market shopkeeper's eyes lit up immediately, and he greedily reached out to grab the drifting bottle.

Jack immediately took it back, "I'm sorry, I got it wrong, it's not this, this is my lifeline, even if you kill me, I won't sell it." ”

The black market shopkeeper sneered, "It's just a broken bottle, the Black Pearl in it is just a model, even if you want to sell it, I can only give you the price of the bottle and the model - one gold coin, no more." ”

Jack was a little annoyed.

That's the Black Pearl that shook the seven seas!

A super-clipper that can toughen even the flying Dutchman!

Isn't it worth even a gold coin?

Jack suppressed the anger in his heart, put the drifting bottle back, and took out the wish compass again.

The black market owner's eyes lit up again, "...... A broken compass? Well, a gold coin, it's still for the sake of your face as Captain Jack. ”

Captain Jack clenched his fists, "It seems that there is nothing more to talk about between us. ”

The black market shopkeeper hurriedly said, "Slow! Jack, if you really want to sell, then make a price out of your mind. ”

Jack said without hesitation: "This is the wish compass, the compass given to me by the goddess of the sea, Colybso, this compass can help me find what I want...... In my heart, it is priceless. ”

The black marketeer sneered, "Priceless treasure, why are you here to sell it?" ”

The muscles on Jack's face twitched slightly, "Because...... Even if I knew what my heart was, I couldn't make it happen. In contrast, my friend needs more financial help. ”

Xu Feng wants to build a big steel ship!

Maple needs a lot of money!

Anyway, he is already so down, and he wishes that the compass will stay by his side, and there is no room for it, so it is better to help Xu Feng and them exchange some money to relieve their urgent needs!

The black marketeer asked, "So, how much are you going to get?" ”

Jack thought for a moment, "Three million gold coins." ”

The black marketeer was stunned at first, and then sneered: "Three million? You've drunk and broken your head, haven't you? In my opinion, this thing is not worth even three hundred gold coins. ”

"Just three million." Jack said firmly.

How much is the Wish Compass worth?

Theoretically, this kind of prop with divine power and magic is really priceless.

As long as the mind is connected, the wish compass can take the owner to find the location of the desired object, in other words, as long as it is used properly, it is basically equivalent to opening the mode of picking up money and treasure.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the owner will never sell the Wish Compass, and the Wish Compass is the only one, and it is indeed a priceless treasure.

Jack's offer of 3 million gold coins is not much at all.

After all, there are a lot of gold coins in this world, and the wish compass is just that.

The reason why Jack asked for 3 million gold coins was just to help Xu Feng.

After all, his trust in Xu Feng has reached 70%, Xu Feng's difficulty is his difficulty, Xu Feng has helped him so many times, and now he would rather sell his beloved wish compass than help Xu Feng.

The black marketeer shook his head, "This price is outrageously high, I can't accept it." ”。

Jack said coldly, "Okay, goodbye." ”

With that, Jack put away his wish compass and prepared to leave the black market.
