Chapter Forty-Eight: The Killing

The Interceptor in the storm was like a leaf scattered by the rainstorm, and the two large warships behind it were ignorant. The torrential rain could not stop them from moving forward, and the waves could not even reach the top deck.

"Brigadier General, we have lost the location of the Interceptor!"

Girrett shouted loudly, a little faint in the pouring rain.

The moonlight was obscured by dark clouds, and only the lightning could shine on a human figure for a short time.

"Keep going full speed ahead in that direction, if nothing else, we shouldn't be far away!"

Norrington's nautical map marked the location of the voyage, approaching the Bahamas, and the island of death was about to reveal its mystery.

The symbol of the Royal Navy in the rainstorm is still fluttering in the wind, unwavering.

The lightning continued, and it continued until dawn.

......

Gordon and the sailors tossed and turned until dawn, and the dark clouds in the distance obscured the sky, making it impossible to tell whether it was day or night.

Sea fog is everywhere here, and visibility is less than fifty meters, but in Jack's pointer, this is the final target - Dead Island.

And in this gloomy environment, there is a strange rocky island in the distance, no plants can be seen, and the sound of the wind after passing through the cave is like the wail of a monster, sad and full of death.

The hammerhead shark is swimming at the bottom of the ship, and through the water, you can see the wreck underwater, which is rotten.

"Anchor!"

"Yes, Captain!"

At Gordon's command, some frightened watched as the sailors around him began to put away the sails and lower the anchor.

A cave had come into Gordon's field of vision, and if nothing else, it was the entrance.

"Jack, your mission is done. ”

There was a lot of fierceness in Gordon's eyes when he looked at Jack Sparrow, but he stopped his thoughts, if he really did it, what difference would he make with a pirate?

"Will, you come ashore with me, by the way, and Jack. ”

Gordon couldn't believe that Jack, who had stayed on the ship, would have left them behind so easily, and that he had to take them with him.

"Gordon, if you want to kill Barbossa, it's probably not enough to rely on the three of us. ”

Will was a little puzzled, although Gordon had the means to kill the pirates, the three of them couldn't kill so many people anyway.

"Let's rescue Elizabeth first and put the dinghy down!"

The sailors, following his instructions, began to gradually lower the boat.

The three of them descended down the stairs on the side of the boat and headed towards Death Island.

Of course, it is impossible for Gordon to kill Barbossa according to such a few people, he is still waiting for the arrival of the Fortress and the Dreadnought, and the most important thing now is to rescue Elizabeth first, which he promised Norrington and Governor Swan.

"Captain, what if the worst happens?"

Gibbs was a little worried that with so many pirates inside, the three of them would probably never return, and the Interceptor would become fish on the chopping block.

Gordon thought about it, and it didn't seem to be too easy to do.

"Act in accordance with the Code. Jack finally spoke, and pirates weren't in the habit of dragging people down.

Gibbs looked at Gordon, who didn't retort, just nodded and watched the three of them walk away.

Will rowed the dinghy, Jack peered around, trying to find the Black Pearl in the fog, and Gordon wiped his cutlass and Hidden Blade with some silence.

"What do you mean by the Codex?"

Will couldn't help the silence and asked.

"Pirates don't take care of the lonely. ”

Jack smiled and spoke, he knew the pirate code by heart. Still, he looked at Gordon with some confusion, if he wasn't a pirate, why he didn't have any doubts when Jack brought this up.

Will thought for a moment, but did not make an evaluation, this criterion is a little inhumane, but it can ensure the survival rate of most people in the complex sea.

The boat continued to move towards the cave, and began to see the gold coins under the water glowing in the light of the torches, which was so fascinating.

The three of them slowly stopped the boat, and hid in the shadows to watch Barbossa stand on a hill of treasures and speak loudly.

"Gentlemen, the day has finally come!"

"Our deliverance lies ahead, and our suffering is coming to an end!"

......

Gordon finally looked at Jack, stared at him, and earnestly instructed, "Jack, listen, if you want to survive, the only way is to hide in this cave!"

"What, what are you hiding from me?" said Jack, looking incredulous, and almost screaming.

Gordon continued to be serious and advised: "I don't want to kill you directly after using it, so I have to tell you honestly, the Royal Navy's Dreadnought, the Fortress is behind, this time all the pirates can't escape, Jack, hiding here is your only way to live, if you're lucky......"

"What are you talking about? Is there anything here, are you letting me eat gold and survive? You're just letting me die!"

Gordon smiled, "You're Captain Jack Sparrow, aren't you? ”

He gave Will a look, and of course the latter understood, and directly picked up the oar and gave Jack a heavy blow.

Jack lay limply on the ground, unconscious.

"Will, go save your sweetheart. Gordon laughed as he walked straight out.

Will gritted his teeth at Gordon's actions and began to spare him from the other side, Gordon was clearly trying to attract the attention of his enemies for him.

“...... Do you know what the first thing I'm going to do when the curse is lifted?"

"Hey, hey, hey, hey......"

The nasty and disgusting laughter of the sailors below.

"That's eating a whole basket of apples. ”

Barbossa raised his dagger and prepared to slit Elizabeth's palm.

Bang!

A projectile hit Barbossa's chest directly, and the latter was stunned for a moment, staring at his chest and looking at Gordon standing in the shadows in the distance.

"Dear Captain Barbossa, did you miss me?"

......

On the Dreadnought and the Fortress at this time.

"Brigadier General, the destination should be ahead.

They finally got here following the floating bucket Gordon had left behind, and that was the only way Gordon could leave a mark.

Countless floating buckets were washed away from their original coordinates in the heavy rain and waves, but Norrington's accurate current calculations always managed to find the next one, even if it took a long distance, to finally arrive near noon.

"Commodore General, you can't move forward, the channel ahead is very narrow, the reef is very shallow, and the Dreadnought and the Fortress can't get in at all. ”

By this time, the sea fog had dissipated considerably, and Norrington could faintly see the Interceptor with the British flag not far away, and the pitch-black sail a little farther away.

"Anchor here, I don't think we're going to wait long. ”

No one has encountered this situation, and Norrington can only believe that Gordon can handle everything, as long as they rescue Elizabeth and escape, as long as Black Pearl dares to follow, it will be a dead end.
