Chapter 50: The End of the Black Pearl

When the two men got up from the water again, they saw very busy sailors, all of them preparing special capture nets, re-anchoring, reloading the guns, and then pushing out the muzzles.

The Stronghold has a total of eighty cannons, plus one hundred of the Dreadnought, which can beat the Black Pearl into a sieve in an instant, and only one thing is to hold it down.

"Colonel Burton!"

Gordon found Burton, who was working on the battle plan in the ship's cabin.

Burton was pleasantly surprised to see Gordon, if it weren't for him, they would never have found Death Island so quickly, and they would never have had a chance to catch the Black Pearl.

"Gordon, hard work, you can rest well for the next battle, everything is left to us. ”

Gordon took the dry towel from the soldier next to him and wiped his hair, which was soaked in the seawater.

"Colonel Burton, I hope to be able to cut off Babossa's head with my own hands. ”

Burton paused for a moment and said, "Then prepare for battle." ”

......

"Everybody hoist the sails, and we're going to teach the thieves who dare to play tricks right under our noses a lesson of a lifetime!"

Barbossa boarded the Black Pearl, and immediately ordered everyone to set sail, even if the Black Pearl was in a bad state now, even if more than half of his sailors were killed or wounded, but in terms of speed, no ship could match, not even the Dutchman who flew.

He fiddled with a green apple in his hand, and he prepared a whole basket for the enjoyment of this time after the curse was lifted.

Black Pearl quickly hoisted her sails and set sail towards the location of the gold coin, the only thing that made him wonder was that it didn't seem to be far away, and it didn't move.

"Colonel, the enemy is approaching!"

Adjutant Gore reported based on the news from the lookout on the reef ahead.

"Harpoon ready, what do you say from the Dreadnought?"

"The Dreadnought means everything is ready. ”

The black pearl is like a dazed prey, stepping into the trap step by step without knowing it.

"Keep calm!"

All the gunners were ready, just waiting for the Black Pearl to come out of the corner.

The pitch-black bow statue peeked out from behind the reef, and the sailor in charge of the Black Pearl's lookout also saw the British flag on the other side, and shouted downward: "Left side, British Navy!"

"It's a trap!" Barbossa shouted, raising his binoculars and looking at the hull that was revealing more and more.

But it was too late, and the Fortress was already rushing towards the Black Pearl.

"Harpoon, fire!"

Rumble!!

The two guns in the bow of the fortress emitted dazzling flames, but instead of shells, they fired two huge fishing forks.

A fishing fork the size of an anchor pierced the stern of the Black Pearl under the impetus of gunpowder, and then pulled it so hard that it could escape.

And taking advantage of this time, the intrepid battleship, an even larger battleship, also rushed forward and continued to hook the black pearl with a harpoon cannon.

"Catch them, pull me!"

Seven or eight soldiers of the warship pushed the huge winch, constantly retracting the ropes, and closing the distance between the two ships.

As the distance drew closer, the Dreadnought aligned with the Black Pearl, and the muzzles of the fifty Black Holes were aimed at the Black Pearl, which was less than a third of its length.

"Fire!"

The roar of fifty cannons in unison was deafening, and the smoke of gunpowder almost obscured the view of the entire deck.

"Clean the chamber and refill the ammunition!"

Countless ropes were thrown from the Dreadnought, hooking the side of the Black Pearl.

"Kill them!"

The soldiers grabbed the ropes from the mast and floated towards the Black Pearl, muffled mithers in their mouths.

The expected resistance did not appear at all, and under such absolute suppression, countless pirates jumped out of their ships and escaped into the water, and on the flames, like a pile of tattered black pearls, there was only one person, looking at everything in front of him as if relieved.

Barbossa ate the green apple, bite by bite, as if it were the best delicacy in the world, though he couldn't taste anything at all.

Then he was roughly pushed to the ground by the soldiers, tied his hands with ropes, and confiscated all his weapons.

He had no intention of resisting, and the thirty sailors of the Black Pearl, even the thirty-two gunners needed to control the side of the ship, lost all hope the moment they were caught by the fishing fork.

A total of seven pirates were captured, including Barbossa, and the rest escaped by jumping into the sea.

They were brutally thrown in front of Norrington like lowly worms.

"Captain Barbossa, you are now arrested on charges of piracy, assault on warships, smuggling, homicide, robbery, and terrorizing, do you have anything to say?"

"Hahaha, it doesn't matter, I've had enough. ”

Barbossa took one last look at the Black Pearl, which was sinking into the sea, the ship that carried all his hopes and glory, and was sunk in the waters of Death Island, and with it his desire to survive.

In ten years, he has lost all perception of being human, and the endless torture of the curse has fed up him, Elizabeth is the hope given by God, and the cruelest thing in human nature is to give you hope in your despair, and then tear it to pieces with your own hands.

"Hold it all down!"

Norrington also lost all interest in Barbossa, who had lost his desire to rebel, and in his fantasies it was impossible to exaggerate the pirate who dared to take Elizabeth, and what he saw at this time was just a pitiful worm.

When Gordon boarded the Dreadnought, he looked at Barbossa's appearance and was furious, and rushed straight up to him and punched him.

Barbossa had no way to resist and was knocked to the ground with a punch.

"Remember the people you killed. Gordon asked.

Barbossa fell to the ground and suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, I killed I don't know how many people and sank hundreds of ships, who can remember, boy, what's your name." ”

Gordon stood up, his eyes closed, completely unable to accept this fact, he chased a distance of more than a thousand nautical miles with hatred, and the other party did not care at all.

"Brigadier General, I want to put Barbossa to death, now, immediately!"

"Gordon, the pirates will be tried by the court, and then divided by hanging, you know what a blow to the pirate side when the news of the execution of Barbossa is released, it can prevent more people from becoming pirates, and it can make the sea peaceful for a long time. ”

"Brigadier General Norrington, I am willing to give up all my credit, but I hope you will leave him in my hands. ”

Sinking the Black Pearl and killing Barbossa would have given Norrington and Burton another level of merit, and Gordon would have been able to get a lot of the reward, but now Gordon was willing to give up all his gains.

Burton also boarded the Dreadnought and looked at Norrington: "Leave it to him, this is the condition we negotiated from the beginning." ”
