Following.

An island appears in front of the Black Knife.

The island is not huge, just a small dot on the chart.

Hawkins knew about the island and even tried to loot the island's villages.

Proskin, because the surrounding waters are rich in the delicious mussels loved by the aristocracy, many fishermen immigrated to breed this kind of mussels hundreds of years ago, and then gradually formed two villages in the north and south.

The village to the south is called Puli Village, and the village to the north is called Kings Village.

The people of the two villages are fierce, when Hawkins attacked Puli Village, before the looting began, the villagers of Kings Village rushed to support with various weapons, and then the villagers of Puli Village also rose up and confronted Hawkins directly, and finally Hawkins had to leave because he was afraid of the large number of villagers in the two villages.

Now Hawkins can't help but laugh when he thinks of that memory, the dignified son of a pirate was driven away by the villagers of two villages, but he is also curious, Kings Village is thousands of meters away from Puli Village, and there is a small forest in the middle, how did Kings Village know that Puli Village was attacked by pirates?

Fifteen minutes later, the Black Knife landed on a remote beach, and several sailors lowered the anchor into the water.

"Captain, do something to the people on this island?" Mark asked, walking behind Hawkins, looking at the smoke in the distance.

Hawkins shook his head and smiled: "No, it's just that I haven't seen land for a long time, so I'm going to go to the island for a walk, and you can stay on the ship if you're not interested." ”

In fact, Hawkins is very rich, and he can live well even if he doesn't loot treasure for decades.

In the past, Hawkins was not a rough man, he had a very detailed plan for his life, after the age of thirty he was ready to wash his hands and not be a pirate, and then find a remote island to buy a piece of land, build a luxurious estate, marry five wives, have eighteen children, and spend the rest of his life leisurely.

So Hawkins is not like most pirates, he squandered money desperately, he secretly saved money, and now this money is still Hawkins's money, but Hawkins is no longer the original Hawkins.

In the end, Mark decided to go ashore with Hawkins, along with a few sailors controlled by Hawkins, who were responsible for going to Puli Village to buy salt and oil and other daily necessities.

When Mark stepped onto the beach, he couldn't help but close his eyes and exclaimed, "This is definitely the longest time I've been off land." ”

"How does it feel?" asked Hawkins, smiling.

Mark tilted his head, looked at Hawkins and smiled, "Not bad." ”

"Let's go, let's go to Kings Village. Hawkins laughed.

His appearance is so different from the past that even those closest to him in the past may not be able to recognize him, and the villagers of Kings Village have only had brief contact with him in the past, and it is impossible to recognize him now at all.

"Captain, are we doing our business now?" Mark asked as he walked into the overgrown woods at the end of the beach.

Hawkins nodded and admitted, "Yes, we are pirates who are not doing our jobs, do you want to rob the poor villagers on this poor island?"

"Just trying to be a villain. Mark casually plucked the flower of the unknown plant next to him, sniffed and threw it away, and then nodded.

Hawkins walked ahead and analyzed: "It's not a good thing that you don't feel like you belong, and you come to a strange place where you don't have friends you know and no relatives who are worthy of your affection, so you feel like you can do whatever you want." ”

In his opinion, Mark is a mature and naïve young man, and he does not want Mark to indulge himself too much.

Sticking to the bottom line is not an easy task.

Hawkins has given up the bottom line again and again, and it is the endless life that gives him enough time to reflect, so he can regain the bottom line again and again.

"Captain, it feels strange that you shouldn't say this. Mark couldn't help but complain.

Hawkins laughed, "Then what do you think I should say?"

"Of course they support me to plunder the villagers, the men kill them all, the women stay behind or something, shouldn't the pirates all be like this?" replied Mark.

Hawkins regretted: "If you want to be this kind of pirate, I'm afraid my ship won't be able to help you fulfill your dream." ”

Although he doesn't mind inheriting Hawkins' pirate status, he doesn't intend to continue to follow Hawkins's style, he has no interest in robbing others at all, he is just enjoying the pleasure of being a human again.

"Sure enough, Captain, you don't look like a pirate at all. Mark reluctantly said that he had planned to spend three months experiencing the life of a pirate, and then kill Hawkins and never wash his hands.

Hawkins walked ahead and laughed, "Isn't that interesting?"

After crossing the woods is a suspension bridge, and on the opposite side of the suspension bridge is the village of Kings.

Built on a cliff with only two drawbridges to pass through, Kings Village is like a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Hawkins and Mark walked to the drawbridge and stopped in unison, guarded by two Kings villagers on the other side of the drawbridge, who didn't seem to welcome them over.

"It used to be like that?" Mark asked Hawkins next to him.

Hawkins shook his head and replied, "The last time I was on this island was five years ago, maybe something happened in between. ”

"Do you want to storm it?" said Mark.

Hawkins denied: "Forget it, I'll find out the news." ”

His transformation of germs was quite effective, carrying germs on his body at all times, and leaving germs to multiply wherever he passed, when the sea breeze was just south, and the germs had drifted with the wind to Puli Village.

These germs are not lethal without Hawkins' instructions, but are purely used to gather information.

In a moment, Hawkins gathered enough information that he realized that this incident had something to do with him.

Because of the fact that the two villages joined forces to drive out the Black Knife Pirate Group five years ago, there was indeed a honeymoon period between the two villages, but because the livelihood of the two villages depended on the mussels loved by the nobles, business friction was unavoidable.

Especially in the past two years, the friction between Puli and Kings has escalated, and even some villagers have been killed in the clashes, and it is no longer possible for the two villages to live in peace.

After Hawkins understood the situation, he turned around and said, "It seems that we can't go to the village for the time being." ”

"Are we exposed?" said Mark, surprised.

Hawkins shook his head, just about to explain the situation in the two villages, when suddenly his ears moved, and then he looked into the distance.

A few kilometers away, a wooden sailboat was parked on the sea, and on the deck stood several men and women, one of whom was a big fat man with a huge meteor hammer in his hand, waiting for the instructions of the woman next to him.

"Right front, yes, turn right a little more, and use eighty percent of your strength!"

The woman next to the big fat man had long hair, many horrible scars on her face, and she wore a spider ring on her right index finger, which pointed in the direction of Hawkins and Mark.

The big fat man got the woman's instructions, and immediately shook the meteor hammer in his hand, and the meteor hammer turned red visibly to the naked eye, and then he threw it violently, shouting: "All the untouchables...... Bomb the sky !!"

The meteor hammer in his hand broke away from his chain and flew straight in the direction of Hawkins and Mark.
