In an abandoned hut by the sea, the lonely afterglow of dusk shines in, and the room is dyed orange. Tonk sat on a boxy window, one leg swinging underneath, a greasy chicken leg in one hand and a half-drunk bottle in the other.

It was the agreed meeting point, far from the prison, and Donk and the pirate in the carriage were the first to return. The pirate was very depressed after listening to Donk's story, and now leaned against the wall, not saying a word.

Halfway through his grunt, he heard footsteps and looked to the door. The door was pushed open with a heavy blow, and the one-eyed men walked in with a gloomy face, and one of them was wounded in the abdomen, all covered in blood, and dying.

"What's going on inside the prison, Captain Cam and the others?" One-eye asked anxiously as soon as he entered the door. The wounded pirate also waited for an answer with concern, as if he cared more about the captain than he cared about himself.

Tang Ke allowed the oil on his fingers and said lightly: "He is not in prison, I don't know where he is being held." I thought, there are only two ways for you to save him, one is to go and arrest a senior official tonight and ask him to find where Cam is being held. Second, when the execution ground is robbed tomorrow and the head is killed, they will have to take Cam out, right? ”

When the one-eyed people heard that this was the case, their expressions became even more sad.

"What can I do?" One of the pirates sat down on the ground in dejection.

"I've bought food for you, you can eat when you need to, and drink when you need to." Tang Ke pointed to the food piled up under the wall, and saw that none of the pirates had the heart to eat, and asked, "What did you do, I was fine with seven in and seven out of the enemy army, but you guys were injured in ambush." Hey? It seems that there is one less person, shouldn't it be dead? ”

One-Eye nodded and said, "It's a dead one, we ran into the navy when we fled, someone recognized me, and I was chased very badly, and a brother blocked a bullet for me." ”

Tang Ke smiled bitterly: "Then what are you going to do next?" ”

He felt that the situation was not good, and lamented that the 1500 bonus points were a bit difficult. But after thinking about it, if Cam was executed, these people would become unemployed vagrants, and they could just be incorporated into the Black Pearl, especially One-Eye, whose strength was quite good.

The one-eyed people were silent, and there was obviously no good way. Donk didn't have a friendship with Cam, and he didn't care about the other party's life and death, so he ate with relish. Later, One-Eye slapped his thigh and said that he could only save the captain when he was full, and these people reluctantly ate something.

After they finished eating, they began to discuss how to rescue the captain. After thinking about it, he finally decided to do it on the day of the execution, with One-Eye in charge of being a sniper near the execution ground, and Donk volunteering to be a sniper as well. The rest of the people are responsible for saving Cam by fighting hard, and they have smoke bombs in their hands that can disrupt the scene.

Of course, the range of 500 yards of a flintlock pistol is not enough to give birth to the sniper profession, this is just an expression.

Donk plans to improvise, if there is really no hope, he will stop in time, and if he is 30% sure, he will help.

Pirates were the most active criminal syndicate in the Age of Discovery, and the nobles of the empire had a pain in their brains when they mentioned pirates. The Empire has a deep hatred for pirates, and many royal merchant ships have been sacked by pirates, often causing huge losses to the Empire.

The punishment of pirates in the five empires is extremely severe, and if the pirate leader is caught, he is often punished with capital punishment, and this capital punishment is also varied.

On the day of the execution.

The execution ground in Port Carlin had long been prepared for Cam, and on a five-yard high wooden platform, there was a door with a mechanism in the center, and when the mechanism was opened, the condemned prisoner would fall.

The criminals are greeted by the bloody maws of the cannibal flower.

The use of cannibal peanuts to devour condemned prisoners is a feature of executions in Port Carlin, and there are even more surprising methods of execution in other ports, each with its own differences.

The time of the execution was set for noon.

The public execution was to kill the chicken to show the monkey, and by the way, let the civilians throw rotten eggs or something on the pirates, and let the merchants who had been robbed by the pirates relieve their hatred, so that the merchants would be willing to pay their taxes.

The execution ground easily accommodated 2,000 onlookers, and the number was growing. The neatly lined navy stopped the crowd on the periphery, and all of them had grim faces.

Several naval officers sat in the high stands, looking condescendingly at the execution grounds. They talked about something lightly, laughed from time to time, and did not take this execution to heart at all, revealing the confidence of those in high positions.

The prisoner with the black hood was brought up, his muscular body covered in scars, and there were few good places left on his body. He was heavily handcuffed and shackled, and his skin, which often rubbed against metal, was peeling open.

Under the push of the executioner, the prisoner knelt on the execution table.

The black hood was removed, revealing a resolute face.

"Captain Cam!" On the roof of a three-story house in the distance, One-Eye couldn't help but shout after seeing this scene.

Donk hurriedly covered his one-eyed foul mouth. The two of them were now hiding behind a drying rack, shielded from their bodies by a secured sheet.

"Damn, I really want to save the captain right away."

"Don't act rashly, you have to wait until there are more onlookers, and then we will set a fire around and mess up the scene, so that it will be easy to start."

This bad idea was made by Tang Ke, and he responded to the sentence of robbing while the fire was burning.

Donk glanced at the execution ground, there were about a hundred navy people on the field to maintain order, which was not particularly large.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! "There was a gang of arrogant people who forced a way out, causing great dissatisfaction among the crowd. Among them was a brightly dressed businessman with a snarky appearance and a black mole the size of a bean on the right side of his nose.

The businessman walked to the execution table in high spirits, and his men behind him carried two baskets of eggs for him.

Someone in the crowd recognized him and muttered, "It's that deceitful medicine merchant Neham, why did he get here?" ”

"Hmph, it's this bastard. If he hadn't made the medicine so expensive, my brother wouldn't have died. ”

"Isn't it, I wish he was the one on the execution table!"

Neam heard the people's discussions, and his heart was on fire, and he glared fiercely at the few who spoke. There were all the navy around, and he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he could only make a note of the faces of those people, planning to clean them up later. In Port Carlin, Henham is also the number one.

Neam nodded to the executioner on the stage, and the other party responded without moving, the two had made a deal before, and today Neam was allowed to say a few words in front of the stage.

"Cam, you robbed me of two ships before, and I lost at least five thousand gold coins, this account should be settled today." Neam said bitterly.

"So what, maybe in the next life, I'm still a pirate, you're still a merchant, and I can still rob your ship." Cam said weakly that although he had not yet been executed, that was all he had left.

Neam's expression changed, and the five thousand gold coins made him feel very distressed, and he had to be angry if he said anything today.

"Throw it to me!"

At the sound of the order, his men began throwing eggs at the stage, and soon made Cam so embarrassed that the skin of the egg hung on his nose and the yolk wet his hair. The executioner stood back, the egg not touched, and watched the scene in front of him silently.

One-eyed saw this scene in his eyes, and his lungs were about to explode with anger, so he turned back to Tang Ke and said, "I must settle accounts with this person in the future!" ”

Donk nodded, not answering, he had been carefully polishing his gun since just now, looking for the feeling of a sniper.

Neham's men threw away both baskets of eggs and stopped. Cam looked like he had taken a bath in egg soup, his head down, his face buried in the shadows and he couldn't see clearly, drops of viscous liquid dripping. Seeing Cam humiliated like this, Neuham smiled with satisfaction.

"If you throw me an egg every time I kill someone, then those eggs are not enough. These eggs are only one-tenth of what they look like. Cam said lightly.

Neam regretted a little that he had taken less eggs, but the thought of Cam's imminent execution made his mood soar again, and he took the people with him. There is always a group of passers-by pointing fingers behind him.

The executioner said in a deep voice: "You murderous demon, what do you have to be proud of at this point today? ”

"I've never been proud of killing a lot, and the only thing that really makes me proud is the brothers on the ship."

"It's ridiculous, don't forget, you yourself were betrayed by your brother." The executioner scoffed.

"Hawkeye's betrayal is definitely more painful than today's death sentence. I have only one regret in my life. If Hawkeye asks me for the Purgatory directly, I'll give it to him directly, and I'll be a pirate even if I use a single-leaved wooden boat, and the Purgatory is by no means more important to me than a brother. But he chose to betray me and sell his soul to get the Purgatory in this way. ”

Cam said with a twisted heart.

Seeing Cam in such pain, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of the executioner's mouth.

"Someone sneaked into the prison yesterday and tried to save you. We killed one of them, and the rest escaped, but you have such a good relationship, they may come to your rescue today. The executioner lowered his head and whispered to Cam, "But they must have come and gone, the navy has laid an ambush around, there are five hundred soldiers, and Viscount Michael is in charge." ”

Cam's face changed drastically, and he looked up and asked, "Who was you killed!?" ”

The executioner described the general appearance of the deceased, and Cam let out a heart-rending wail.
