On this day in June 1715, an event occurred that would change a person's life.

Somewhere in the world, there is a pirate ship that is being attacked by the Royal Navy. The main character of this pirate ship is not the captain of the ship, but a man named Edward James Kenway. Captain Brahma had already been blown away by Royal Navy fire during the battle, and the man may have been blown into the sea.

In the face of the Royal Navy's attack, Edward Kenway tried to calm himself down, and only if he was calm enough could he survive from these people.

The sound of artillery fire continued to sound, and under the multi-layered impact of artillery fire and waves, the pirate ship kept shaking and was difficult to control. The captain was nowhere to be seen, the helmsman was unknown, and Edward Kenway had to control the direction of the ship himself.

There were several dhows around, all of which were sunk by the pirate ship's shells under the command of Edward Kenway.

"Boom!"

Another cannon rang out, and shells hit the hull of the pirate ship, the deck was damaged, wood chips were scattered, and many pirates standing on the deck were also blown away, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead. A brig came to the side of the pirate ship. The two ships were facing each other, and those who controlled the hull to spin and run on the side pulled the guns in their hands, and huge shells shot out of the barrels.

Some of the shells fired by the two ships collided with each other, and some hit the hull of the target. Judging by the damage done to both ships, it was clear that the brig's artillery fire was a little more powerful. The hull of the ship had already suffered a lot of damage, and it was impossible to move again when it got off the ship.

"These damn Brits!"

Captain Prague climbed up from there, carrying a scimitar in his hand.

Edward Kenway, who was on board, also pulled out the two pirate scimitars he wore at his waist. He noticed that on the bow deck of the brig stood a guy with a hood.

The brig turned around with full rudder and spun in place, and Captain Prague guessed the other man's intentions at once. So he immediately ordered the gunners: "Hurry up and reload the ammunition, those Brits are going to use the side-rotating guns, hurry up!" ”

The pirates who were still able to move walked up to the cannons, grabbed their shells and gunpowder and began to reload, and although they were already doing so, the brig turned ahead of them. There was another burst of artillery fire, the sides had been blown up, the inside of the cabin began to flood, and the entire hull began to tilt to the side, slowly sinking into the sea.

Luckily, the ship's side-rotor guns were not all damaged, and the pirates finally loaded the ammunition and gunpowder.

"Maneuver the artillery! Fire! ”

Edward Kenway gave the order, and the pirates pulled their cannons again, and a burst of artillery fire struck, and the brig was also badly damaged, and began to tilt and sink. The situation for the pirates is finally no longer so passive, but the situation is still not in their favor.

At this moment, the hooded guy standing on the brig suddenly jumped from the bow and jumped onto the stern deck of the pirate ship. Edward Kenway was a little stunned, the man was very agile, he jumped from the bow with ease, and when he was in the air, a strange weapon appeared from his hand. The weapon stabbed directly into Captain Brama's body, and as he withdrew his arm, the strange weapon vanished.

"Bastard!"

Edward Kenway cursed and was about to kill the hooded guy with the pirate cutlass in his hand, but at that moment, the pirate's shouts came from behind him.

"Oh no, the ammunition depot is on fire and is about to explode."

Edward Kenway looked back, and sure enough, a fire had broken out in the area where the ammunition was stacked, and the powder keg had begun to burn. Although it was only the powder keg on the deck that was ignited, below the deck was the ship's ammunition depot. If the powder keg explodes, it will detonate the shells and gunpowder in the ammunition depot.

"Damn it!"

Edward Kenway cursed, and by the time he looked at the ammunition depot, the man in his long coat and big hood had already walked towards him. After dealing with Captain Brama, his next target is this guy.

When he had already walked into Edward Kenway, only a few steps away from him, there was a loud "boom", and suddenly the sound of an explosion came from the ammunition depot. There was a huge explosion in the middle of the hull, and the entire ship was blown to two ends, and the other crew members who were still standing on the ship were blown away by the huge impact. And Edward Kenway, who was also on the boat, and the guy with the hood, were naturally not spared, and were also blown away.

The lucky ones who fell into the sea may survive, while those who are unfortunate have fallen into the center of the explosion and are burned alive, and some have broken bones from the hull of the ship.

Edward Kenway was undoubtedly lucky, he fell into the sea.

His body slowly sank to the bottom of the sea, and in this moment, he remembered his past. Three years ago, he resolutely left his hometown. He still remembers the words with his wife Caroline at the time.

Before he went to sea, Carolyn Scott asked him worriedly if this smuggling trip was dangerous.

"If it weren't for the danger, they wouldn't have paid so much money." Edward Kenway said.

Carolyn Scott didn't understand why he was on such a dangerous smuggling mission, and asked him puzzled: "Why don't you take the Royal Navy cargo?" At least it pays reasonably and is a lot safer. ”

"his Royal Navy." Edward Kenway grew up disliking these sanctimonious Royal Navymen.

"They make 600 shillings, and I can only take 1 shilling from it, so I don't make a lot of money at all."

"We don't need to make a lot of money." Carolyn Scott wants to live her life in peace, and she doesn't want her lover to risk her life and make a lot of money.

But that wasn't what Edward Kenway wanted, and it wasn't the life he wanted.

"It's not a matter of need, Carolyn." Edward Kenway mused, "I want clean food, I want shelter from the elements, I want a decent life!" ”

Caroline couldn't stop Edward Kenway from chasing what she wanted, and she could only hope that he would come back soon. So she asked, "How long will you be with these smugglers?" ”

Edward Kenway thought for a moment and said, "I think at least 1 year...... Two more years. ”

"2 years, never more than 2 years, promise me ......"

Edward Kenway had promised Caroline that it would never be more than two years, but it had been three years since he had been out of there. At the beginning, he vowed to go back with dignity and let Caroline live the good life he wanted. However, two years ago in July, a sudden release of news turned him from a smuggler to a notorious pirate.

At this moment, Edward Kenway finally came to his senses, and he managed to rise to the surface of the sea, crawling towards the island next to him. After his constant pedaling and paddling, and his desire to survive, he finally climbed to the beach of the island.

Beside him, Edward Kenway saw a hooded guy sitting there, and there was a bonfire lit next to him, and food was being roasted on the fire.
