Chapter 491: Tomb Island
Ekki Empire, Sea of Osiris.
This is the largest sea area of the Eki Empire, where the god of the underworld, Osiris, was resurrected and sprinkled with the glory of the gods.
On the turquoise sea, the pure black black Fantasy is like an oasis in the desert, which is very eye-catching.
Several seabirds hovered over the Black Fantasy, as if trying to find a chance to land on the mast, but because there were two pitch-black crows standing there, which looked quite intimidating, the seabirds circled for a long time and did not find a chance to land.
Luo Sanpao, who was tied to the top of the mast, had been thrown into the sea a few days ago, and now he may have returned to the sea from the belly of the fish.
"The island ahead of me is probably the island where the Pharaoh's Tomb is located, and it's not far from the Ankh Fortress, but it's a bit tricky. ”
Andy stood on the stern of the boat, looking at the nautical chart in his hand, his brow furrowed slightly.
The Ankh Fortress is the largest naval fortress in the Ekie Empire, and there are several naval marshals stationed in the fortress, and ordinary pirates are not qualified to connect to the Ankh Fortress.
And the island that Jack marked for him was not far from the Ankh Fortress, and it only took a day or so to get there from the Ankh Fortress at the speed of an ordinary three-masted galleon sailing at full speed.
On the fourteenth day after leaving Skull Island, three days ago, Andy left the confines of the Central Sea and arrived in the Sea of Osiris in the Ekie Empire.
Arriving here from the edge of the Sea of Osiris, the Black Fantasy took three full days, and to Andy's satisfaction, during these three days, the Black Fantasy did not encounter any naval ships, but yesterday it did encounter a merchant ship, and after the two pirate crew members paid with their lives, the Black Fantasy had a few extra boxes of gold and gems on it.
In addition to gold coins and gems, there are also dozens of boxes of spices that are special products of the Ekie Empire.
The spices of the Eki Empire are famous all over the world, just like the silk and porcelain of the Tenglong Empire, which have become the main commodities of the Chamber of Commerce in the Eki Empire.
This thing can be sold for a lot of money in other countries, but because it is too heavy, it seriously affects the speed of the Black Fantasy, and under Andy's order and Herman's expression of pain, the crew threw more than half of the spice into the sea.
And now, the Black Fantasy has come to the front of that mysterious island.
The island looks like a normal island, surrounded by sandy beaches and lush greenery, and there is no telling that the tomb of one of the greatest pharaohs of the Eki Empire is hidden.
"Will Jack be here?"
Anna walked up to Andy's side and asked softly, she knew that Jack had planned to come here with Andy, but because of Barbossa's betrayal, they didn't know where Jack had gone.
"He's coming, Anubis' scepter is an opportunity, a chance for Jack to reclaim the Black Pearl, it's an artifact more powerful than that Flame Grail, I don't think Jack will give up this opportunity. ”
Andy replied firmly, in fact, if Jack wants to recapture the Black Pearl, then he will definitely not give up the Anubis Scepter, only strong power can give Jack the ability to punish those who betrayed.
"Anubis...... The legendary Grim Reaper of the Ekie Empire ......"
Andy squinted, shook his head and laughed.
"Charles, lean in!"
"Okay, boss!"
Charles turned the rudder, and the Black Fantasy headed in the direction of the island, and the entire sea was endless, except for one Black Fantasy, there were no other ships in sight.
Speaking of which, the Sea of Osiris is like this because of the legendary pirate king Lyle Scarnod.
As the largest sea area of the Ekie Empire, the Sea of Osiris is home to countless pirates and merchant ships, and because of the existence of the Ankh Fortress, there are a large number of naval ships in the Sea of Osiris, which also leads to battles in this area almost every day.
Merchant ships were plundered, pirate ships were hunted down, and naval ships were attacked.
However, after Lyle Scarnord and Bloody Rain Essent attacked the port of Isin, Pharaoh Ekie was furious and sent a number of navies out of the fortress of Ankh to rebuild and defend the port of Isin.
After the number of navies stationed in the fortress of Ankh was significantly reduced, the pirates became even more frenzied, and their frenzied raiding of merchant ships led to a large number of merchants abandoning the Sea of Osiris and going to the port of Aesin with the navy.
The Port of Issin was founded because of the discovery of large veins of diamonds on the nearby coast, and the diamonds that were mined provided new ways for merchants to earn gold.
The remaining naval forces of the fortress of Ankh, under the orders of the Pharaoh, patrolled the waters of Osiris every day to clear every pirate ship they encountered.
In order to escape the mad navy, most of the pirates temporarily left the Sea of Osiris, or hid in a dirty pirate port.
After a few days of clearance, the navy lost its initial enthusiasm, and all the pirates hid, and the navy could not find the shadow of the pirate at all, so they gave up the daily search.
And the day of the arrival of the Black Fantasy coincided with pirates evading, navy burnout, and merchants fleeing......
This has led to the vast Sea of Osiris, which looks like a dead sea.
The Black Fantasy stopped a few meters in front of the island, following the impact of the waves, and after the tide, the Black Fantasy would stop on the beach.
The anchorman threw the anchor down and fixed the position of the pirate ship, and the pirates slid down the cable impatiently, because just a few meters in front of the island, the pirates only symbolically crossed their arms twice and came to the island.
Fearing that the navy or other pirates would find out, Andy decided to let the pirates stay on the beach so that they could quickly spot if any new ships were in sight.
However, Andy still needs to leave a few henchmen, and after thinking about it, Andy still decided to keep Anna here, and handed over Mogg's command to Anna, with her, Andy is more at ease.
After the arrangements were made, Andy walked into the jungle with Olivia, Margaret, Charles and others.
"Why don't you let Anna join us?
Margaret walked over to Andy, lowered her voice, and asked with squinted eyes.
"No, the Pharaoh's tomb is full of curses, and Anna is not a wizard and is not suitable to be there......"
Andy replied with a smile, only to hear a stumbling beside him, Charles showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and smiled awkwardly at Andy.
