Chapter 242: The History of the Black Pearl
James angrily pulled out the Water Breaker and put it on Xu Feng's neck.
His beautiful fiancΓ©e, he hasn't touched a finger yet!
But now it's ......
Governor Swan hurriedly took off his coat and draped it over Elizabeth's body so that her daughter's body would not be seen by more people.
Captain Jack tried to slip away, but the place was surrounded by three layers inside and three outside, and as soon as he turned around, a dozen muskets were pointed at his face.
Captain Jack raised his hands pompously, "I'm just an enthusiastic citizen, I didn't touch this woman!" It's all this guy touched, and I saw him put his face on this woman's heart, and I came here to stop him. β
β¦β¦ Brother Captain, you're really too skilled at selling people, aren't you?
Xu Feng smiled helplessly, "...... Brigadier General, I mean not to offend Miss Elizabeth. β
"Is Elizabeth's name your name the same!" James was jealous, and the strength in his hand couldn't help but be a little heavier.
"Stop! James! Elizabeth stood in front of Xu Feng and glared at James angrily, "Mr. Arthur just saved my life!" Are you going to kill my savior? β
James was stunned for a moment, and then realized that his behavior was indeed a little out of line.
He put away the Water Breaking Sword stupidly, and said to Xu Feng in a cold voice with a straight face: "Thank you for saving Elizabeth...... Mr. Arthur. β
Xu Feng said lightly: "It's nothing, not to mention that this is not for you, but for Elizabeth herself." Elizabeth is an independent woman, she is not a commodity, she does not belong to anyone. β
Elizabeth said with a look of approval: "Mr. Arthur, what you said is so good! I wish some people could learn from you and not be so machismo. β
James frowned slightly and turned to Captain Jack to the side, "And what about you, zealous citizen, what's your name?" β
ββ¦β¦ Smith. Captain Jack had a smile on his face, and his figure was even more pompous as if he were a re-enactment of a play.
"Very well, Mr. Smith, thank you for your assistance." James held out his hand to Captain Jack.
Captain Jack hesitated slightly.
After all, he is a pirate, and the other party is a brigadier general of the navy, and the relationship between the two should be the same.
James raised an eyebrow.
Captain Jack didn't want to reveal his identity, so he could only gently reach over his dirty hand to shake James's hand.
James' hand grabbed Captain Jack's right hand like a pincer, and he quickly pulled Jack's sleeve open.
An ugly P-scar was revealed.
All the sailors present immediately pointed their guns at Captain Jack!
The word P is the first letter of the English word "pirate", and pirate means pirate.
This shows that Captain Jack was once captured by the English fleet, and the brand of the P word was also marked at the time of capture.
James sneered and said, "I'm a dignified commodore and any pirate standing within a mile of me can be noticed!" β
Captain Jack shrugged, "You've seen through it, you're so good." β
James pulled Captain Jack's other sleeve again, sniffing a small sparrow flying over the ocean on his other arm, and the floral text "Jack Sparrow" was written underneath.
"Jack Sparrow?" James frowned slightly, "Well, I thought it was just a story, so you really exist." β
Captain Jack said modestly, "I didn't expect me to be famous. β
"Yes, traitor to the Toindo Company." James sneered coldly.
Xu Feng was quite unhappy in his heart.
He'd watched the entire set of Pirates of the Caribbean and knew Captain Jack's background.
As a young man, Captain Jack was the captain of a trading ship owned by Lord Beckett Donindo Trading Company of England, and was tasked with transporting a shipment of goods from Africa.
The name of the trading ship was "Bad Girl", and the goods it carried were actually black slaves.
Captain Jack didn't want to trade slaves for the Dondo Company, so he found a small island and freed all the slaves.
This naturally angered the Toindo Company, and they sent several warships to find and sink the Bad Girl, and capture Captain Jack.
At that time, Captain Jack was still very young, and the Bad Girl did not have any artillery equipment, so it could not resist the powerful English navy at all.
Once caught, the Dondo Company labeled Jack as a pirate and banished him.
As a result, Captain Jack could no longer return to the English Empire, nor could he enter any European cities.
After Jack's expulsion, the captain of the Flying Dutchman, David Jones, approached him and promised to help him recover the sunken trading ship, on the condition that Jack surrender his soul to David Jones for 100 years after 13 years as a trading ship captain.
Desperate, Jack agreed, so David Jones fished the trading ship from the bottom of the sea and gave it a new look.
The name of the ship was also changed to "Black Pearl" because of its resurrection.
Jack got his wish to become the captain of the Black Pearl, and also recruited a large number of pirate crews, but not for a long time, because he was not the kind of pirate who burned and killed the looter, but the kind of pirate who liked routes and adventures, so the pirate crew of the Black Pearl has always been the poorest pirate in the Caribbean.
So in less than half a year, a "mutiny" led by Barbossa broke out, and Jack was also exiled to an uninhabited island.
This silence lasted for seven or eight years, and it was only now that he reappeared.
β¦β¦ It was a "tragic" experience.
Captain Jack grinned, "-Captain." I'm Captain Jack Sparrow. β
James looked around in surprise, "Captain? What about your ship? β
Jack shrugged helplessly, "I'm looking for it." β
The fat guard next to him said, "He's about to rob our Interceptor." β
The thin guard said, "Yes! Thankfully, we found and stopped him in time. β
"Sir, we captured his weapons and equipment!" The fat man hurriedly handed Captain Jack's sword and musket to James.
James picked it up and looked at it, "An inferior short gun with only one bullet, a rusty pirate sword, a compass that can't point north and south, it's all rubbish!" Jack Sparrow, it's the first time I've seen you as poor as a pirate. β
Captain Jack was quite unconvinced and said, "I still have a gold coin!" Hey, young gentleman who doesn't want to tell me his real name, you shouldn't forget. β
Xu Feng smiled faintly, "I haven't forgotten, Captain." β
"Look! I'm not the poorest. Captain Jack laughed, his mouth full of bad teeth.
