Edward was still looking east and west at John's ship, and the others below were getting impatient. The ship is the private territory of a pirate group, and as Adéwal said, "I was born a slave in a distant country, and the Jackdaw is the country I belong to, and I know all the people in this country, and they don't laugh at me because of the color of my skin and my accent." This shows the importance of the pirate ship to the pirate group, so other pirates are not allowed to board the pirate ship without being invited.

Edward knew most of the people on the ship, and was friends with the captain and quartermaster, so he was naturally able to go up without saying hello, but Blackbeard and the others couldn't. So, they had to wait under the boat. Pirates aren't known for their good temper, and waiting here is enough to make them angry, let alone waiting for Edward to chat on them and leave them here to bask in the sun. Thankfully, Edward quickly remembered the pirates he had left behind. Hurriedly took John off the boat. Naturally, looking at the row of black faces on the dock, Edward also looked a little embarrassed.

Thankfully, the focus is not on those details. Vane looked at the ship, "New, where did you get this ship?Did you sneak up on the naval fleet that was being repaired?" Edward frowned, but didn't speak.

John put it bluntly: "We ambushed the fleet that was in the fortress, with this big ship as the flagship, and 3 gunboats. We brought our gunboats to the point of incapability, but our ships were also broken, so we simply snatched their flagship. ”

Hearing this, Blackbeard glanced at John from time to time: "You mean, you used your original ship, not only sank three gunboats, but also captured their flagship intact? Are you telling a joke? It's not funny." Can your original ship, which had only a few small guns, really hit the navy?" "In fact, we still have mortars. John added: "Most of the credit goes to my quartermaster, and under his command our mortars hit their sails with great accuracy, which is the main reason why the gunboats are inoperable." Blackbeard gave John a bottle of wine: "You have a competent quartermaster, you have time to introduce me to him." John nodded, but Vane looked impatient, "Do you want to have a party here?" As he spoke, he didn't care about the other people's reactions. He turned around and walked towards the fortress. Blackbeard looked a little angry, but he didn't quarrel with Vane at this time. But the thought of the gold made Blackbeard's anger subside somewhat, and he turned to John and said, "Let's go, let's go, don't let the gold and wine wait." ”

Edward walked at the end and stopped John while the others were not looking: "John, come here." John saw Edward stealthily stop him, and walked over. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Edward said to John, "John, we have a new goal, in Kingston. John paused and said, "You mean the Observatory?"

Edward glanced at the pirates and John who had begun to look this way, and slowly walked towards the fortress: "Yes, this time, I saw the head of the Templar Order. He had arrived with gold because a slave trader had captured the Sage, the one who knew the location of the Observatory. Last time, he escaped at the Governor's Palace, and he framed me and was caught, but this time I was caught. ”

However, Edward looked at John: "But now there is a problem, the gold here was originally brought to Kingston by the head of the Knights Templar to buy the gold of the Sage from that slave trader, but now the money has been divided among everyone. Originally, I wanted the head of the regiment to go to Kingston with the money to seduce the slave trader and snatch the Sage away, but now I don't have the money. ”

John looked at Edward, "You mean, now we can buy the Sage as long as we have the money?" "In fact, we can snatch the Sage just by finding the slave trader. Edward put his arm around John's shoulder: "Yes, now we are short of a little money. I've counted my share and taken out all my money, but it's still a little short. John thought for a moment and said, "I have a sum of money there, so I can give it to you first." Edward laughed: "Really, you didn't lie to me, did you?" John said: "Of course I won't lie to you, after all, it's a matter for the two of us, and since you've done your best, I naturally can't sit on the side and watch the excitement with rum." ”

Edward patted John on the shoulder, "Let's go, don't keep them waiting." John looked at Blackbeard and the others, and followed Edward towards the fortress.

The pirates' revelry was inseparable from treasure and wine, and John sat by and watched the pirates squirt around with gold coins in one hand and glass full of rum or beer in the other, still not accustomed to participating in such a lively event.

Fortunately, John was not familiar with the captains except Edward, so even if he sat next to him, no one would invite him. This may be an isolation for others, but John is not averse to it.

After all, even if the Observatory is not the place close to the reality of the world that he is looking for, it is enough to have a good relationship with Edward, the owner of this memory world. As for the others, they are just false existences. John thinks so.

The revelry lasted from the afternoon until late at night - no, it was afternoon when John arrived at the fortress, and they were already drinking and merry, and who knows how much they had drunk before John arrived. The revelry was so popular with everyone that everyone from the notoriously aspiring pirates to the most ordinary sailors were already drunk and fell to the ground.

The head of the Order seemed to see this as a good opportunity to escape, and there was no one around to guard it: the guards had fallen asleep with rum bottles in their arms. He stealthily stood up, drew his knife from the pirate next to him, cut the rope from his body, and looked out through the crack in the door. Drunk outside, too.

Seeing this, the head of the regiment pushed open the door and walked out. It wasn't a problem for him to leave the fortress now, but how to get out of the island was stumped for him. The crazy idea of a person rowing a canoe only exists in fairy tales, if it were oneself...... The regimental commander, who was thinking while walking, suddenly felt numbness in his back, and turned his head to see that at the top of the fortress, there was a person sitting there. The moon rose behind him, and the moonlight shone brightly around him, but the other side that didn't shine was hazy, and even with eagle-like eyes, he couldn't see everything in the shadows—except for his blue eyes, which seemed to sparkle brightly. Far away, the regiment commander only felt that he was stared at by those eyes, as if he was being targeted by a natural enemy, and he couldn't move.
