Chapter 516: Won't Your Conscience Hurt?
Karina sighed helplessly, "I'm not a liar, I'm an astronomer and a female watchmaker. ”
Henry next to him hurriedly said: "Captain Barbossa, your education is too low to understand her, but she is not a chicken girl riding a donkey, you just have to believe her." ”
Karina smiled gratefully at Henry, "I didn't expect you to become smart in just one day." ”
Henry grinned, "After all, we are already engaged. ”
Karina shrugged, "But that's fake, expedient. ”
Henry said disappointedly, "Huh? I thought it was ...... We're really engaged. ”
Barbossa frowned and said, "Do you have a chronometer?" ”
Karina hurriedly said, "I have! Captain, you know a chronometer? You're nothing like Captain Jack. ”
Barbossa sneered, "Ha! Jack? Jack is nothing! I'm the real captain of the Black Pearl! Since you have a chronometer, then I can trust you! Get out of the way and let her take the helm! ”
One of the pirate sailors hurriedly said: "Captain! You can't let a woman be at the helm! That's unlucky! ”
Another pirate followed, "Yes, Captain, let the woman take the helm, and we will die." ”
Barbossa said in a cold voice: "Only she knows the nautical chart to find the Sea Emperor Trident, either let her be at the helm, or be caught up by the undead ship before the supplies run out, I choose to let her take the helm!" ”
The two pirates wanted to say something more, but Barbossa directly pulled out his musket, "Who has a different opinion?" ”
The two pirates immediately shut up, not daring to say a word.
Karina said gratefully, "Thank you for your trust, Captain Barbossa. ”
She originally thought that the mighty pirate overlord would be a villain who was a hundred times more murderous, but it was only now that she realized that it was really not for nothing that Barbossa could become the overlord of the sea.
He has his own unique views on the issue of selecting and employing people, and even on the issue of science.
Karina held the rudder, took out Galileo's diary and papyrus, and took out a chronometer to quickly calculate the trajectory of the Trident.
Barbossa nodded in satisfaction and stepped aside to rest.
Henry said happily, "Great, Karina, we are finally back on track to find the Trident." ”
Karina smiled, then sighed again, "This ship...... And those necromantic sailors, which science simply can't explain. ”
Henry laughed, "Some legends in the sea are true, Karina, my father is a living legend." He was the captain of the Flying Dutchman, and he was responsible for extraditing the souls of the seas to the underworld, and he could only go ashore once in ten years, and his heart was kept in a coffin of souls, which was kept by my mother. ”
Karina was stunned and said, "Your father...... I'm really sorry for that. ”
Henry smiled: "There is nothing to be sorry for, my father was just cursed, so I have to find the Sea Emperor Trident and break all the curses." And...... I'm glad you realized you were wrong. ”
Karina immediately said, "Wrong? No, no, no, I'm not wrong, I'm just confused. I thought that science was omnipotent and could explain everything, such as why there is the sun during the day, the stars and the moon at night, why there are spring, summer, autumn and winter, etc., but I really can't explain the current situation. ”
Henry laughed, "You are such a competitive woman, I have never seen you apologize in such a way." ”
Karina smiled: "This, I think I should be inherited from my father, although I have never met my father, but I believe that he must be a person who does not want to admit defeat." Besides, I don't need to apologize to you. ”
Henry laughed: "Before, you said I was a fool and said that I believed in some fairy tales, but now you see, we were on a boat that ran out of a glass bottle, and we were chased and killed by a group of undead seamen, it turns out that I am not stupid at all, right?" ”
Karina smiled, "Well, if it's because of this, I'll apologize to you." ”
Henry laughed, "Good. ”
Karina said, "However, I think I should apologize to my promise, because when I rescued you, I only asked you to find a ship that could go to sea, but you found Jack Sparrow, and Jack was hunted by the undead. ”
Henry grinned, "I don't trust Jack sometimes, but he's a legend. It was also my fault to involve you in this danger, and I apologize to you. ”
Karina smiled, "Well, I accept your apology. ”
Henry said happily: "Then, I won't bother you to calculate the navigation route, I'll go on patrol." ”
Karina smiled and said, "Well, go ahead." ”
By this time, the sky had completely darkened, the moon had risen, and the stars were shining.
In front of the Black Pearl, there are five very bright stardusts that form a huge trident pattern.
Karina gazed at the five stars as she calculated the trajectory of the voyage.
And behind the side of the Black Pearl, the battleship St. Martin was in rapid pursuit.
"Commodore General, we've found a Blacksail Pirate Ship!"
"That should be Jack's Black Pearl." Brigadier General Fili said coldly: "Catch up and sink it." ”
The adjutant said helplessly: "However, the speed of that ship is very fast, and we seem to be unable to catch up. ”
Brigadier General Fili frowned and said, "The St. Martin is the latest warship to be built!" And the Black Pearl is at least 30 years old! Now you say to me that our Saint-Martin can't catch up with a 30-year-old ship? I don't care what you do, you must catch up with me! ”
“…… Be! The adjutant saluted, and then hurried over.
The sirens sounded on the St. Martin, and all the soldiers entered the combat positions, even the guards who guarded the prison ran out to help.
"What's going on?"
Gibbs looked out through the bars of the cell, "Something seems to have gone wrong with the St. Martin." ”
"Whatever." Captain Scomb sat down on a pile of straw and said weakly, "As long as they don't beat me anymore." Hey, you, give me a leg thump! ”
Another pirate frowned and said, "Why? ”
"I'm the captain! I've been beaten for you! Scum said indignantly, "You all have to speak of conscience! When you see me beaten like this, won't your conscience hurt? ”
Gibbs said to the pirate, "Go ahead, give Captain Scum a thrashing of his leg and a massage, lest he won't be able to hold it the next time he's beaten up." ”。
The pirate sighed helplessly and did as Gibbs had told.
"Ouch, it's comfortable." Scomm grinned, "Finally, I have enjoyed the privilege of being a captain." ”
