Chapter 197: News from a few weeks ago

Meanwhile, Woodpecker Island.

"Young men, after a long time of recuperation, I believe that you have completely recuperated enough to face the greedy ghosts who are staring at us all the time!"

Wang Hao stood on the towering aft deck and shouted to the sailors standing on the main deck: "Tell me now, are you ready?" ”

"It's been ready for a long time!"

"Of course!"

"I can't wait!"

What answered Wang Hao was the shouting of the sailors wielding long knives, short axes, and muskets.

Wang Hao was very satisfied with the high morale of the sailors, "Since you are all ready, then okay, put down the cable, spread the sails, sail to Nassau, let's go back and enjoy the civilized world again!" ”

After distributing the treasure looted from the naval fortress to his men, everyone began to have a carnival on the island, both white and black.

Even if you don't have to worry about storms, you don't have to worry about the encirclement of the navy and bounty hunters, and you can drink unlimited alcohol, so you can drink until you fall to the ground.

When you get drunk, you lie down on the ground and fall asleep, and when you wake up, you sing and dance and drink, except that there are no women, everything is so perfect.

Of course, the two musicians in charge of playing the music didn't think so, but Wang Hao gave them a lot of bonuses, and the two put away their complaints.

In the end, the banquet was over, not because everyone didn't want to continue, but because of a cruel reality, they were running out of wine.

Faced with this situation, Wang Hao immediately stopped the banquet and let everyone recuperate for a few days, which was a real cultivation, and some of the wounded before also came to the carnival together.

Then he decided to set off again and go back to Nassau to enjoy the real fruits of victory.

In this regard, the sailors naturally will not be dissatisfied, grabbing so much money, and not squandering it, they are simply sorry for the blood and sweat they shed, so they are naturally looking forward to returning to the civilized world as soon as possible.

However, it was such a simple wish that was shattered after a handy robbery.

The reason for the incident is simple: at the banquet on Woodpecker Island, the sailors who frantically released their inner pressures drank all the rum that was supposed to be used for the voyage for months in just a few days.

Luckily, there is a fresh water source on Woodpecker Island, which keeps sailors from drinking spoiled and foul-smelling water.

So in order to improve the living environment, but also to make the journey less lonely, Wang Hao followed the advice of Quartermaster Billy and robbed a merchant ship to replenish fresh food and water, and most importantly, rum.

The robbery went well, and when the pirate flag with the white lightning piercing skull raised to the top of the mast, the merchant ship wisely dropped sail and anchored, waiting for the Equality to approach.

"Aha, I have to say, your captain made a very wise choice!" After confirming that the merchant ship had surrendered sincerely, Wang Hao jumped onto the deck of the merchant ship and said to the people on the deck: "In order to commend you for this cooperative behavior, I have made a very generous decision not to take away the merchant goods on this ship." And we're not going to hurt anyone, just take some of the supplies I need. ”

After seeing Wang Hao show the pirate flag, the captain of the merchant ship has already determined that this is Wang Hao, the 'thunder pirate' who has been in the limelight recently.

As a captain who has been dealing with the sea all year round, it is a must for them to recognize each pirate flag and the style of the owner of that flag.

According to his understanding, Wang Hao is not a murderous person, and for those who take the initiative to surrender and cooperate, they often only rob and do not hurt people, and even the ships can be kept.

If there is a 'Most Popular Pirate Award' in the Caribbean, Wang Hao must be on the list of candidates.

Therefore, after knowing that he could not escape, the captain of the merchant ship simply took a gamble and ordered his men to stop the ship and not make any resistance.

was ready to be ransacked, but when Wang Hao's words were finished, the captain of the merchant ship suddenly felt that there was hope in his life again. I silently prayed to the gods in my heart, thinking that this must be the gods who are taking care of me, and I will be a true believer in the future.

Billy, the quartermaster, was instructed to restrain the sailors not to rob the goods or hurt people at will, but to take only some of the supplies he needed.

Billy said he understood, but also said that the sailors had a lot of money in their hands at the moment, and that the ship's merchandising was not so attractive to them.

Thinking that being idle is also idle, Wang Hao called the captain to him and asked casually: "Is there anything new at sea recently?" ”

"Yes," said the captain, whose body trembled like chaff, "it is rumored that you led men to attack the naval fortress and sack it......"

"I did everything, do I need you to remind me! Is there anything else new? Wang Hao interrupted the captain's words, and then the captain's body trembled even more.

"Yes, yes...... Legend has it that a pirate ship attacked Port Royal, ransacked its shops and powder magazines, and kidnapped the daughter of the local governor. The captain of the merchant ship raised his head and tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "I wonder if you know this...... Yes! ”

Wang Hao didn't wait for him to finish, he suddenly bounced up on the railing, grabbed the captain's collar with both hands and asked, "What did you say?!" How long ago did you hear this? ”

Under gravity, the captain of the merchant ship with his tightly wrinkled clothes almost choked, "Ahem, it was about two weeks ago, as for how long ago this happened, I don't know......"

Wang Hao snorted coldly, casually threw the captain of the merchant ship aside, and called out to his quartermaster: "Billy, Billy!" ”

Billy heard Wang Hao's shout, and poked out half of his face from behind a stack of boxes in his arms, "Hey, captain, it's going to be done soon, do you have any other orders?" ”

"Don't want it, don't want the rest, set sail immediately, target Death Island!"

"Huh?! Dead Island! Billy obviously couldn't believe Wang Hao's command, "But captain, we have just made a lot of money, and I don't think we need to have any conflicts with others for the time being." Besides, it's Barbossa's lair, and none of us know where it is, and Captain Barbossa isn't a good-natured man. ”

"Of course I know where it is, and I have a reason why I have to go." After giving Billy a tough order, Wang Hao comforted again: "Don't worry, we are not going to fight this time, or you can see it as to avoid those greedy pirates and bounty hunters, and we will spare a way when we go back to Nassau." ”

Of course, Wang Hao knew where Death Island was, and in the eyes of many pirates, Wang Hao was completely unprofessional. Many times, his attention is not focused on robbing merchant ships with fixed routes, but prefers to roam around in his own ships.

But for these short-sighted statements, Wang Hao completely scoffed, he was actually collecting all kinds of information in this world, and with intelligence, he could make a lot of money.

For example, the location of Death Island was found by tracking the Black Pearl while wandering around.

For this reason, the two sides also exchanged hands once, but they did not take advantage of each other.

Wang Hao's practice of the "Five Thunder Righteous Method" is the nemesis of these undead creatures, so he is not afraid of Barbossa and his army of undead.

But Wang Hao's car at that time was only a dhow, and the crew was only sixty or seventy. Although Wang Hao can fight, there are nearly 300 sailors on the Black Pearl, and if they really want to fight, neither side can take any advantage.

If Wang Hao's crew loses too much, it is possible that in the end, there will not even be enough manpower to drive the ship, so they can only stop and spin in place, and at that time, they will really starve to death holding a mountain of gold.

The two sides had mutual scruples, so they were able to sit down and negotiate calmly, and in the end, no one could help anyone, so they could only reach a peace agreement. Barbossa will not attack Wang Hao, and Wang Hao will not reveal the location of Death Island, and the two sides will end in peace.

So today, when Wang Hao heard that Port Royal was attacked and Elizabeth was taken captive, he immediately thought that this must be a good thing done by Barbossa, so he immediately set sail for Death Island to see if he could still have a good time.
