Chapter 188: Squidward

The Empress was not the largest ship in Howling Wind's hands, but it was his favorite ship, capable of carrying six hundred tons of cargo, armed with fifteen heavy iron cannons, and capable of plundering many goods and prisoners at a time. Howling Wind had the craftsmen paint huge eye patterns on the hull of the Empress, and decorated his captain's cabin in a luxurious manner.

Don't look at the two ends of the junk ship, it seems that it is not suitable for naval warfare, the ships of the East and the West have advantages and disadvantages of each other, because the junk ship is not a square sail like the western ships because of the sail surface, so its angle is the direction of the wind, and it can always sail in a straight line.

Russell rode a small boat through complicated waterways, and under the leadership of Tai Huang, he came to the bathhouse of Howling Wind, and met the pirate king whom everyone feared.

Goatee + bare head + scars on the face, at first glance, he is ruthless. Although Howling Wind is a little ugly, his appearance is very compatible with the identity of a pirate, and the scar is a medal of bravery, with his dark eyes, he is very heroic.

He wore a layered black ornate robe, a belt inlaid with gold and jade, and a dragon tattooed on his head.

It is worth noting that he has two ornaments on his body, a jade necklace hanging around his neck, the symbol of the Nine Pirate Kings; The other is the ring he wears on the little finger of his right hand, with a red silk handkerchief tied around it.

Very coquettish, but extremely profound, Tai Huang introduced this silk scarf to Russell when he introduced Howling Wind, which is a relic of Howling Wind's father, the former South China Sea Pirate King.

"Who are you, and what information do you want to tell me?" The Howling Wind Horse sat on a chair, and behind him stood two young women with identical appearances.

The twins' names are Lian and Park, and according to Tae Huang, they are Howling Wind's personal guards and personal attendants, responsible for Howling Wind's food, clothing, and daily life, and the kind that is close to the negative distance.

"Mr. Howling Wind, my name is Russell, and I'm ...... from there," Russell said, pointing in the direction of the east, and continued to smile and said, "Because of your activity in the South China Sea, some people want to cooperate with you closely. ”

Xiaofeng Fox glanced at Russell suspiciously, picked up the red silk scarf and sniffed it: "Who are some people referring to, white or black?" ”

Russell understood the subtext of Howling Wind's words, and replied: "White, those big people sitting on top of the temple!" ”

Xiao Feng sneered, his face showing disdain: "Are you lying to me, the waste that issued the sea ban order will ask me to cooperate?" And your hair, are you sure you're white? ”

Forbidden Sea?

Russell's heart suddenly changed, he was not very familiar with this era, and he did not know many rules and regulations. But it doesn't matter, there are people who have society, and if there is society, they will pursue profits, and the ban on the sea does not mean that there is no trade.

"It's because the ban on the sea has harmed the interests of many people that I thought of you." Russell touched the short hair on his head: "As for the hair, it is used to hide your identity, you don't need to care." ”

Xiaofeng chuckled and shook his head: "So, what are those big people looking for me?" I'm a pirate who doesn't believe my word, they don't want to do business with me, do they? ”

"It's business!" Russell stepped forward, glanced around, and frowned: "Mr. Howling Wind, this is not suitable for talking, can you go to a place where there are fewer people?" ”

There was a lot of noise around them, all of them were Xiao Feng's men, a group of outlaws who licked blood from the knife edge. Russell wasn't afraid of them, but he didn't think there was any need to be tough, he played low-key sneaking, not a frenzied sneak in that killed everyone.

Xiaofeng sniffed the silk scarf and didn't speak, and Tai Huang next to him glanced at him, nodded his head slightly, and signaled that Russell was safe.

"Okay, let me hear how to cooperate."

Howling Wind got up and walked towards the side room, the twin maids followed him left and right, Tai Huang stepped forward quickly, rushed to Howling Wind to push the door open for him, and Russell followed behind.

In the side room, Tai Huang wiped the Taishi chair clean with his sleeve and respectfully invited Xiaofeng to take a seat. As a result, as soon as the twin maids closed the door, he suddenly pulled out the long knife from his waist and put it on Xiaofeng's neck.

The mutation came suddenly, the twin maids were shocked, the elder sister Lian pulled out the dagger on her waist and rushed towards Russell, and the younger sister Pu turned around violently to open the door and shake people.

However, Russell was fully prepared, and the thunderbeast slipped out of his trouser leg and swooped down on his sister at the door. As for his sister, who was going to kidnap him, he was grabbed and grabbed in the joint, and held the dagger against his neck.

"Crackling!"

"Hmm~~"

"Ah~~"

The thunder beast pounced on the two women in a row, which suddenly made the room a little more wet.

"Tai Huang, you betrayed me!?" Xiao Feng's face turned pale, and he looked at the long knife around his neck in disbelief, he had expected that many people might betray him, but he didn't expect that person to be Tai Huang.

Thai-Hwang is trusted and is the second-in-command of the pirate group, but his relationship with Howling Wind is far from simple. Xiaofeng adopted him as a young man, and it can be said that he regarded him as his own and cultivated him as a successor.

"Captain, I didn't betray you, it's just that this adult's words are really important." Tai Huang whispered in Howling Wind's ear.

"That's the back...... Ahh......h Hmm...... "The howling wind was in the air, and suddenly he was thrown into his arms by the thunder beast, and he fainted with slurred speech.

"Crackling!"

Tai Huang was too close, and unfortunately suffered together, and his mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted and he followed the street.

Russell picked up the thunder beast and stroked it, condescendingly: "Mr. Xiaofeng, I have very important information to tell you, if you have no opinion, I'll say it now." ”

“……”

"OK, looks like no comment."

Twenty minutes later, the twins Lian and Park walked out of the door, guarding the door of the side house on the left and right, forbidding anyone to enter. The wet pants did not arouse suspicion, this is the bathhouse, and everyone is damp.

Russell began his plan of enslavement in the house, but to the pain of the egg, Howling Wind's mental will was so tenacious that he spent two full hours without success.

Fortunately, the twins were successfully enslaved, and they were blocked from the outside, so they failed to attract the attention of Howling Wind's men.

"It's worthy of being one of the nine pirate kings, the degree of enslavement is very difficult!" Failed again, Russell frowned deeply, glanced at Tai Huang next to him, thought for a moment and asked, "If I slaughter Xiaofeng, can you, the second-in-command, take over his position?" ”

Tai Huang shook his head repeatedly: "No one can replace the captain's position, the rights he gave me can be withdrawn at any time, without him, I have no power." So, if he dies, most people's first thought is to kill me and then take power. ”

At the end, Thaihuang added, "Because we're pirates!" ”

"Tsk, it's a high-risk occupation."

Russell complained with a headache, raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the thunder beast was another tiger pounce. There was a crackling sound of pleasure in the room, as for whether there would be sequelae after the howling wind, it was not in Russell's consideration, who made him so uncooperative!

……

Three hours later, Russell sat on the Taishi chair and drank tea, the twin sisters pinched his shoulders and pounded his legs one after the other, and Xiaofeng and Tai Huang stood side by side, bowing slightly to Russell.

"Mr. Howling Wind, has there been anything unusual on the sea lately?" Russell closed his eyes and enjoyed it, Xiaofeng was very good at enjoying it, and Lian and Pu's massage techniques were so clever that his bones were almost crispy.

"My lord, with all due respect, you mean the anomaly......" Howling Wind arched his hand, there are anomalies on the sea every day, and it has never been calm.

Russell thought for a moment and said, "Navy and Squidward...... No, it's David Jones, captain of the Flying Dutchman, what have they been doing lately? ”

Howling Wind frowned, realizing that his boss didn't understand anything, but he didn't reveal it, and said: "When it comes to the navy, we have to mention the East India Company, and the new chairman, Lord Beckett, is a madman who is very keen on exterminating pirates. ”

The East India Company here is not the Dutch East India Company, nor the Swedish East India Company, but the British East India Company.

The notorious British East India Company operated mainly in South and Southeast Asia, from its establishment to its dissolution, for a total of 274 years, monopolized the trade in the Indian Ocean, and had an army, executive power and local jurisdiction granted by the government, which can be called another Great Britain in the Eastern Hemisphere.

By the way, the sale of opium to China and the Opium Wars were the company's masterpiece.

"As for Davy Jones......" Howling Wind frowned and pondered, "this devil has come and gone without a trace, and I have no information about him at hand." ”

Russell nodded, the Pirates of the Caribbean series takes place in a magical world, the story is set in the early 18th century, and the news is seriously blocked. Even if many things have happened, they will not be circulated for a long time, it is normal for Xiaofeng to have insufficient information, if he knows everything, he will make a fortune by selling information, how can he still block the road and rob it.

"And how is the Pirate King of the Caribbean, Jack Sparrow? You are both the Nine Great Pirate Kings, and you are both the second generation of the sea, so you should know him very well! ”

Jack Sparrow...... Hehe......" Howling Wind looked disgusted, as if referring to a bed bug, and said in disgust: "A cynical Caribbean liar, who has no sense of being a pirate, deserves to be betrayed by his own crew. ”

"You hate him?"

"Very nasty!"

Russell put down the teacup in his hand and asked the key question: "Is he dead or alive now?" ”

"Dead or alive!?"

Xiao Feng was surprised, and then said, "My lord, although I hate him very, very much, I also have to admit that his life is very hard, and I heard that he has recaptured his ship and lives a very chic life. ”
