Chapter 431: Norrington's promotion
For this reason, Norrington even disregarded the opposition of others, and forcibly passed the construction of the Intrepid and the Interceptor, the Intrepid is an extremely important existence even in the entire empire on which the sun never sets, and the firepower is extremely ferocious, it is by virtue of this Intrepid that Norrington was able to defeat one pirate after another and send them to the gallows, and the entire Port Royal can now be said to be a forbidden area for pirates, even if the ferocious pirates are cornered, they will not come to Port Royal. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info here is a nightmare for them, yes, a nightmarish existence.
As for the Interceptor, it also contributed to this process, and no ship found so far has been able to outpace the Interceptor, at least in the eyes of the Royal Navy. The Interceptor was actually designed based on the shape of the Maple Leaf, which was also the reason why those people opposed the construction at the beginning, how could the Navy imitate the pirate ship? Another reason is that this ship is too weird, and it can't be realized at all according to the current technology, and finally at Norrington's insistence, and some deletions and modifications, the Intrepid was finally manufactured.
After all, Norrington was a colonel before, a colonel of the navy, and he still had more weight in the system of the empire on which the sun never set, and he was still a colonel who held real power in a chaotic place like the Caribbean. Of course, it is not without consequences, that is, the annual tax paid by this Royal Port is almost doubled, but this has no impact on Norrington at all, but the Governor Swan's oil and water have decreased, and their military spending will not be reduced by a cent, if Swan still wants to stay here safely.
At this time, in the Governor's Palace, a room that is still relatively foreign, at least compared to the surrounding rooms, the Governor's Mansion at this time has already changed a lot, without the dilapidated appearance of ten years ago, it has a new look, and the decoration inside is also passable, from Ye Feng's eyes. In the past ten years, Swan, the governor, has been relatively comfortable, and he has no ambitions of his own, and the purpose of coming here is only to make money.
The military power is completely let go, which is why he can be safe and secure here. None of the people who can mix with brigadier generals are kind or benevolent, and no general has the blood of the enemy on his hands. In the past ten years, Elizabeth has grown more and more beautiful, and has also been infected with a Caribbean specialty, a factor called pirates. Turner was sent straight to the town's blacksmith shop, and there was no need for such a person in the Governor's Palace. By the way, Turner's gold was taken by Elizabeth. This gold Aztec coin was originally his father, Bill Turner, who got it on Dead Island and thought it was very good, so he sent it to his son in London.
Unexpectedly, the family changes, and Will travels to the Caribbean to find his father, an accountant. Eventually, the boat overboard, was rescued, and finally sent to the blacksmith's shop. It can be said that Will has the breath of a pirate in his blood, and he is destined to become a pirate in the future.
"Legend has it that in the middle of the mysterious Caribbean Sea, there is a mysterious base, no one knows its location, and no one has ever been inside, except for the Maple Leaf. That's the base of the Maple Leaf, the base of the entire fifteen Maple Leaves, you can imagine how big and magical it is. Where all the treasures of the Maple Leaf Pirates are piled up. The Maple Leaf Pirates are more terrifying than the unscrupulous crew and devilish captain of the Black Pearl, and more legendary than the Dutchman that took off, it came from our Caribbean, and in the sea just outside the window, no one has ever seen the true face of the Maple Leaf, or the former Commodore Norrington. ”
"Norrington, how did he know?" The girl seemed a little surprised, the middle-aged maid on the other side was a little unpleasant to be interrupted like this, but the girl in front of her was not an ordinary person, but the only daughter of the governor, and she would become a nobleman when she returned to London in the future. Pressing it again, the maid answered the little girl's question, "Yes, Brigadier Norrington did see it, probably ten years ago, and the general has been working hard to be able to capture the Maple Pirates", "He's only a colonel, not a general yet, and I don't think he can catch it" The girl retorted, not very happy with Norrington.
Just when the maid wanted to tell the girl in front of her what was right, she heard footsteps outside, "Elizabeth, hurry up", a middle-aged man's voice sounded, the door was opened, and a middle-aged man who was a little fat walked in, "Elizabeth, see what I brought you?". It was our Governor Swan, and the maid quickly got up from the bed, although the young lady just now didn't care, but the Governor was most concerned about these things.
Elizabeth was half-forced and half-voluntarily began to wear her most popular style from London, although this dress was indeed quite oppressive, but it also made Elizabeth's originally petite buns finally bulge, and there was still the least femininity. Will also arrived, bringing a sword forged for Norrington, but he didn't know beforehand, only that his employer was the Governor.
Ye Feng, who is far away in the Atlantic, is driving the Maple Leaf to the wind and waves, in fact, just now the Maple Leaf has just finished a plunder, and ordinary pirates will always pick up soft persimmons and pinch them, except for a very special one, such as the currently cursed Black Pearl, which is basically a god blocking and killing, and a Buddha blocking and killing Buddha. Of course, Ye Feng and his Maple Leaf are also in this special ranks. Just now, Ye Feng had just plundered the pirate king of the Atlantic, and this was not the first time he had done this kind of thing, in the distant South China Sea, the Maple Leaf Pirate Group had launched many plunders against Xiao Feng, and none of them failed. Now Xiao Feng is really a little afraid of the Maple Leaf Pirate Group.
Standing on the bow of the boat, looking at the rough sea, Ye Feng also felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Suddenly, Ye Feng looked into the distance, only to see a huge unknown bird, even the most robust eagle would not be so huge, the speed of the bird is very fast, and it has come to the attack range of the Maple Leaf in a few breaths, but the sailors of the Maple Leaf did not attack, this is the opposite sex bird specially used by the Maple Pirate Group for communication, there are many of them, and the combat effectiveness can even be compared with them, and they have their own wisdom.
The alien bird quickly flew to Ye Feng's side, and landed on Ye Feng's shoulder very obediently, without the fierce aura just now, but like a pet dog eager to be favored by its owner. After gently petting it twice, the alien bird flew very happily into the special birdcage on the side. The silver platter inside had already prepared food for it, and crossing the two oceans consumed a lot of energy. Picking up the information brought by the alien bird in his hand, it turned out that Norrington's promotion ceremony was about to begin, this was the beginning of the entire Caribbean plot, and Ye Feng naturally couldn't miss it. "Full speed ahead, target, Caribbean Port Royal", as Ye Feng's order was delivered, the Maple Leaf began to move rapidly, and the sails were raised high, heading towards the Caribbean Sea.
