Chapter 25: Confusing Conversations

Nieto stood on the deck of the Black Pearl, feeling the gazes of the sailors around him, and only felt his legs go limp.

The Black Pearl, the name is indeed popular as a casual drink in the tavern, but it takes a lot of courage to get Nieto to walk on his own.

After all, everyone said that this was a ghost ship full of undead people on their way to another world.

Until a small hand tugged at the corner of his coat.

Nieto looked down and saw that his youngest daughter, Luna, was trying to smile at her with her sick little face up.

He crouched down and hugged Luna, his voice no longer trembling: "Don't worry, Daddy is with you." ”

For the sake of his daughter, even a cowardly man can overcome fear.

"Hah! Mr. Nieto, and Miss Luna, please don't be inhibited. ”

Barbossa, who wore a wide felt hat, laughed gloomily, but this time he was really kind: "The captain has something to go out for, and it is estimated that he will be back soon." Until then, why not try the dishes that Mr. Bonan is proud of? ”

Miss Maria, who was proud of her figure, walked up to little Luna with a plate, crouched down and whispered, "Would you like to try Mr. Bonan's specialty, Galician octopus?" ”

The plate is piled with chunks of boiled octopus and pan-fried potatoes, topped with paprika, and the scorching aroma whets the appetite.

Little Luna swallowed, looked up at her father, and saw that the latter nodded, and then pinched the corner of her skirt and gave Barbossa and Maria an awkward salute.

Mary smiled so wide that her eyes were bent into crescents, and she took the little girl to sit in the leeward of the corner and whispered.

As soon as his daughter left his side, Nieto's courage seemed to disappear with her, and she turned back into the cowardly and thin man.

Barbossa smiled, walked up to Nieto and patted him on the shoulder: "Mr. Nieto, don't worry. If there is any gentleman in this world who will never break his promise, it is Lord Heather, the captain of the Black Pearl. ”

He knew very well how miraculous and precious Captain Heather's promise of healing was, and that this man's willingness to set foot on the infamous Black Pearl for the sake of his little daughter was admired even by Barbossa himself.

Looking at Barbossa's big yellow teeth and fierce eyes, Nieto's face turned a little pale, and he nodded with a reluctant smile.

At this time, the lookout above their heads let out a cry of surprise: "...... Chief mate? ”

"What's the matter?" Barbossa looked up.

"The battleship was spotted at ten o'clock...... Yes, it's the Holy Trinity! The lookout's voice grew terrified.

Speaking of the most powerful warship in the world, it must be the Holy Trinity, and even the East India Company's Endeavor has to go a little to the side.

Barbossa was a little puzzled, could it be the Marquis of Gonzalo? Impossible, that old thing has always been unprofitable, and he dares to attack head-on even though he knows that the Black Pearl is the most terrifying speed in the Caribbean?

Thinking of this, Barbossa pulled out his telescope and looked at the Holy Trinity on the horizon in the distance.

Well, the four-tier gun deck, it's the Holy Trinity, that's right, only this invincible battleship in the world can have such a strange and magnificent structure...... Wait, Black Sails?

Barbossa hesitantly lowered the binoculars, blinked his little eyes, and raised the telescope back in front of him.

Could it be that I am holding the telescope in the wrong posture?

How could the Spanish Navy, which hated all pirates and anything related to pirates, fly the black sails, which symbolize pirate ships? The Marquis de Gonzalo, in particular, the old bastard who prides himself as a faithful servant of the gods, is eager to dye all the sails of Havana's military and civilian ships white as a symbol of purity and sanctity.

Jack sparrow...... For some reason, Barbossa's mind immediately conjured up the name of this rival. It's not that he's sensitive in his heart, but once something strange and temporarily unexplainable happens around him, as long as he pulls it on Jakesparo, it's definitely right.

It was with this in mind that Barbossa, who was the first mate who had the authority to temporarily take over command when the captain left the ship, motioned to the crowd not to panic and prepare to flee immediately, but to stay where they were and see what the Holy Trinity wanted to do.

As the battleship gradually approached, the huge hull of the Holy Trinity also gave everyone a great sense of oppression.

Just rush at those 114 cannons, who dares not to have a sense of crisis? As long as a salvo is fired, let alone the Black Pearl, even the harbor of Havana will be destroyed in an instant.

Eventually, the giant ship came to a silent halt about fifty meters away from the Black Pearl.

Standing at the top of the stern, Barbossa threw up his head and shouted:

"Hector Barbossa, First Officer of the Black Pearl, salutes you! I don't know which captain is in command of this invincible warship, can you come out and talk about it? ”

Still silent.

The gigantic crowned lion, the prow of the Holy Trinity, opened its mouth as if to utter a silent taunt.

Just as the pressure in the hearts of Barbossa and the others was increasing, a small head poked out from the edge of the top deck of the Holy Trinity. It's none other than Jack in a Spanish military uniform!

"Look, Hector's nervous appearance, he should really find a clever painter to paint this scene." Jack muttered nonsense as he leaned on the railing at the edge of the deck looking down at the Black Pearl.

"Jack Sparrow! Why are you on the Holy Trinity? ”

Barbossa yelled, "Are you being captured again? Or messed with the Spanish Navy and the Marquis of Gonzalo? ”

At that moment, another head popped out not far from Jack's side.

The second Jack.

He glanced at the first Jack: "Hector is this taking the wrong medicine?" ”

"He's also old, so it's normal for problems to have problems here." The first Jack pointed to his head, then shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands: "Maybe he will be replaced by his mentor soon, and going to the countryside to farm and retire is Hector's destiny." ”

The second Jack was overjoyed: "Then wouldn't I be promoted to the position of first mate of the Black Pearl?" ”

"No, you're a shipwright on the Holy Trinity, and I'm a lookout, always." The first Jack shook his head.

The second Jack fell back to the railing with his head down: "...... It's boring. ”

Immediately afterwards, a third Jack also came out from the side, his expression was not angry and arrogant: "A bunch of shitty things!" Hurry up and get to work! If you are lazy, I will reward you with a few whips! ”

"Yes, sir!" The first two Jacks quickly stood up and saluted, and then vanished from the edge of the deck.

Below, everyone on the Black Pearl looked stupid.

Is our navigator, Mr. Jack, crazy, or are we crazy?
