Barbossa concluded that the Black Pearl could not be considered a weapon.

The Black Pearl has a special meaning for both Barbossa and Jack, who sees the Black Pearl as his spiritual sustenance and home, and Barbossa as his favorite home.

As pirates, they can go ashore to look for flowers and willows, and they can go to leisure, a day, two days, or even half a year. But for them, the ultimate home and home will always be the Black Pearl.

Heather didn't say much, just watched as the pirates and navies worked together to empty the entire grotto treasure room, and the Aztec stone chest was moved to the captain's room of the Black Pearl.

After seeing the terrible curses on the pirates, no navy would steal the gold skull coins from the stone chests without opening their eyes, and those pirates have just recovered their normal human bodies, and they are even more distant from the gold coins.

Standing at the ferry, Heather admired the full view of the Black Pearl in the moonlight.

The three-masted galleon was about one hundred and sixty-five feet long, equipped with fourteen cannons on the top deck and eighteen in the cabin; Both the hull and the sails are eeriely black, and the bow is like a classic pigeon angel.

The Black Pearl was formerly an armed merchant ship named The Wicked Wench. Seventeen years ago, the young and vigorous Jack Sparrow was originally the first mate on Daddy Teague's ship, but because he also wanted to be a captain, he ran away angrily after many quarrels with his father, and came to the East India Company to start from the bottom sailors and climb the ranks.

That's five years.

Cutler Beckett, a member of the board of directors of the East India Company at the time, felt that this young man was particularly good as a sailor and a navigator and worthy of cultivation, so he used his power to promote young Jack to captain of his merchant ship, the Bad Girl.

Jack did live up to Beckett's expectations, delivering the goods to the location perfectly every time. Beckett is also becoming more and more friendly to him, and the relationship between the two can even be described as "friends".

Their friendship lasted until Jack discovered that Beckett was secretly engaged in the slave trade, much to the disgust of the freedom-loving Jack. From then on, he unceremoniously refused any assignment that Jack found to be related to the slave trade.

After some time, Beckett wanted to find some indigenous island in the Atlantic, seize its abundant resources, and colonize it. But with no means, he approached Jack and negotiated 30% of the island's treasure and 10% of the slave sales, as long as Jack helped him confuse and win the trust of a slave from the island.

The pay can be said to be extremely generous, because knowing that Jack hates the slave trade, Beckett added a clause - if you accept the mission and do not complete it and do not return, then I will directly sentence you to be a pirate.

At that time, the East India Company was a global giant with its own armed army, and most of its directors had the power to mobilize the Royal Navy and impose punishments, so Beckett was not alarmist.

Jack took the assignment and returned a few weeks to the sea, claiming that the slave's location was fake, and that the slave had found a chance to escape, and that they had both been deceived by the slave.

Beckett knew that Jack was lying, but he couldn't produce proof.

He secretly hated Jack for ruining his business, so he asked Jack to transport a whole shipload of slaves, and offered Jack a tempting price that Jack couldn't refuse.

[This is the last mission, as long as you can complete it, I will sell you the 'Bad Girl' for one shilling.] 】

At that time, a shilling was equivalent to the cost of mooring a ship, and to put it bluntly, it was equivalent to giving it away for free.

Jack is indeed in the trap, his biggest dream is to own his own ship, and the Bad Girl is exactly what he dreams of.

This time, after a week at sea, Jack sailed in the direction where the slaves had been freed, and the agents of the East India Company, who had been secretly following Jack, quickly approached and boarded the ship to arrest Jack, only to find that the entire ship of slaves was missing, so he had to be escorted back to East Africa.

Enraged, Beckett took Jack aboard his ship, left a pirate mark [P] on Jack's right arm with a red-hot soldering iron, and then sailed the ship away from the East India Company harbor, forcing Jack to watch from the deck as the Bad Girl was set on fire before being completely blown up by the warship's guns and sunk to the bottom of the sea.

Watching his first ship destroyed with one shot at a time, Jack suddenly breaks free and jumps into the sea to swim to the Bad Girl.

He was never seen again.

Jack somehow found Davy Jones, the king of the deep sea who was piloting the ghost ship "The Flying Dutchman", and asked him to resurrect his ship.

David Jones, of course, could also see what a good sailor Jack was, so he proposed a deal. He can resurrect the Bad Girl and give Jack thirteen years to be his captain freely, but when the time comes, Jack will have to return to the Flying Dutchman for a hundred years.

Jack's nature is to take one step at a time and look at the type that doesn't think about the consequences, where can he care about what will happen in thirteen years, and he naturally agrees.

So, on a stormy night, the raging sea slowly bulged, and the Bad Girl broke through the sea and reappeared in the world with a new look.

Because she had been burned by flames and sunk by cannons, the hull was dark black throughout, and ominous black sails hung from the masts, hunting in the wind and rain. At the same time, Davy Jones also cast magic on the hull of the ship, giving her the fastest speed in the Caribbean.

Since then, Jack has referred to the ship as the Black Pearl.

Admiring the Black Pearl's eerie black hull with a dark mystery, Heather touched her chin and fell into deep thought.

It's a good ship, but it's not Heather's goal.

Thinking of this, Heather turned her head to look at Jack, who was negotiating with Brigadier General Norrington.

Obviously, Commodore Norrington and his Royal Navy were caught off guard by the pirates, but the curse was lifted in time for the Navy to suffer too many casualties. Jack found Norlin, who was about to teach the pirates a profound lesson, but only managed to suppress his anger when he heard Heather's orders.

At this moment, Heather's voice came from behind Barbossa:

"My lord, where is your next destination?"

"Go to the Intrepid and bring Miss Elizabeth and Mr. Will aboard the Black Pearl, and then inform Norrington to follow us on our voyage to Port Royal."

Heather was sure that as long as Elizabeth was on the Black Pearl, Governor Swan and Norrington would not act rashly, and coupled with the Black Pearl's unrivaled speed in the Caribbean, they were not afraid of them escaping halfway.

Port Royal? Barbossa was tempted to say that he had fallen victim to a group of pirates at Port Royal, but given Heather's unpredictable and eccentric nature, he wisely kept his mouth shut, saluted Heather's chest, and strode towards the Dreadnought.
