Chapter 48: The Black Pearl (I)

The big black boat in the distance is like a black swordfish stepping on the waves, if it was just a phantom at the beginning, then when Hong Lang King Kong and the others picked up the telescope, what they saw was already an entity.

The first thing that catches your eye is the strange long collision angle.

Compared to the Black Pearl in the movie, the Black Pearl in front of you has longer and thicker ramming horns. If the "Flying Dutchman" is like a giant shark, then the Black Pearl's ramming angle is like the medieval knight's long riding spear, with a terrifying momentum.

Looking over the collision corner, I saw the huge hull of the ship, and the waves crashed against the hull of the boat, surging up the waves that were full of boat height. You can faintly hear the shouting whistle, which echoes leisurely.

"Hell, it's so fast! I've never seen a sailboat so fast!" the flood cried out hysterically.

From afar, the Black Pearl looms on the surface of the sea. It's so fast that it's like an arrow shooting at your eye, growing in size until it reaches you.

Shen Yi looked at the telescope again, kept adjusting the focal length of the telescope, and calculated its speed: "The speed is 25 knots, and it continues to accelerate...... It's almost 30 knots, and it's all a submarine!"

"It's incredible. Gentle exclaimed: "It is impossible for a sailboat to reach such a high speed!"

"The theoretical maximum speed of a modern sailboat can be reached, and when you run on the Black Pearl, it becomes a normal speed. Shen Yi replied, he was still observing.

"With only seven knots of sail power, we couldn't beat the Black Pearl. King Kong said deflated.

"Then don't run, get ready for battle, they're coming straight for us. Gentle and bold answer.

Hong Lang licked his lips: "A monster of six thousand points, I don't know how powerful it will be." ”

This is not six thousand points made up of twelve small pirate ships, but a boss-level existence in the Pirates of the Caribbean world.

is the protagonist of the Pirates of the Caribbean world, the powerful and cunning captain of the Black Pearl.

Even Shen Yi didn't dare to expect Captain Jack Sparrow to show any mercy in this situation - pirates are pirates, and the reason why occasional mercy can make them famous forever is that the meaning lies in occasionality, not in compassion.

But at this moment, a sharp cry suddenly sounded behind him.

"Look at the back!"

Everyone turned around at the same time, only to see a huge battleship also appear behind them.

It was a super-gigantic golden battleship.

It appears to be a full circle larger than the largest sailing ship of the sixteenth century, and has no large ramming angles in the bow, making it clearly not a shock ship. Part of the hull is also covered with fireproof cowhide, which can effectively prevent the attack of cannonballs and flames.

There are three decks on each deck, each of which is equipped with a large number of guns, including the rapid-fire heavy guns encountered on the Rover, but the caliber is larger, and the dense gun holes are numbing at a glance.

If the impact of the Black Pearl is like a speeding car in a hurry, then the golden ship is like an iceberg moving slowly on the surface of the sea - not too fast, but full of power and oppression.

On the mainmast of the golden giant ship, a red and white rice flag with a dark blue background was hung high.

"It's the Dreadnought!" cried out gently, "the flagship of the Royal Navy!"

Hong Lang said with a dull expression: "What the hell, did we collide with evil? The two ultimate warships in Pirates of the Caribbean actually appeared together." ”

King Kong corrected: "It should be said that there are two ultimate warships other than the ghost ship. ”

"I don't need you to correct this. Hong Lang scolded angrily.

Shen Yi was not in a hurry, he looked at the Dreadnought, then looked back at the Black Pearl, and finally said: "So that's the case, they didn't come for us." ”

"What did you say?" everyone froze.

Shen Yi's hand was already pointing at the Black Pearl: "Look!"

The Black Pearl swept towards the merchant fleet like a tornado at sea, and the Intrepid approached in the rear.

Shen Yi's fleet invisibly became a midpoint between the two ships.

"I see. King Kong exclaimed, "They are going for each other." ”

"That's right. Shen Yi nodded.

Corsair ships and navies are natural mortal enemies, and it's normal to go to war as soon as they see each other.

However, this time, the two **OSS-class battleships collided with each other, which was a rare spectacle, and it happened that Shen Yi and them met.

"So what should we do now?" Faced with this situation, Hong Lang was a little dizzy.

"What else can I do?" Shen Yi replied: "Lead the crowd to watch and beat soy sauce." ”

King Kong reluctantly reminded: "Be careful of the gods fighting, mortals will suffer." ”

Shen Yi replied coldly: "They are not immortals, and we are not mortals. ”

He looked up sharply and shouted, "Turn the rudder 25, the left boat will be windy, and lower the sail by half!"

The flotilla hurriedly complied with the instructions, and Hula began to turn.

If the other party wants to fight, it is better for his side to quickly give up the battlefield first.

The fleet quickly moved away from the center zone, giving way to the sea, and the Black Pearl and the Dreadnought were getting closer and closer, forming a large triangle between them.

As Shen Yi expected, the Black Pearl was really not coming at them, the ship rushed straight towards the Dreadnought, and from Shen Yi's distance, he could even clearly see a man wearing a three-cornered hat and holding a big sword on the bow of the ship, standing at the forefront with his head held high.

The line of sight gradually became clearer, and Shen Yi could even see the man's eyes.

They looked at each other, their eyes rubbing sparks, and then they looked at the Dreadnought at the same time.

"Is that Jack Sparrow?" asked King Kong curiously.

"I don't know, he can't see his face clearly when he faces us, but he looks really sloppy. Hong Lang muttered.

The chatter of partners was in his ears, but the two battleships in front of him were getting closer and closer.

"Seven hundred meters, six hundred and fifty meters, six hundred meters, five hundred and fifty meters, five hundred meters......" Shen Yi carefully calculated the distance.

As the distance closed, the Dreadnought slowly turned its massive body and turned its starboard side towards the Black Pearl.

Boom, boom, dozens of cannons roared at the same time, as if dozens of beasts were roaring. A series of white smoke rose and blew up waves in the Caribbean Sea.

If the firepower of the Rover can turn the surface of the sea into a fountain, then the firepower of the Dreadnought is the opposite. At the moment when a hundred cannons were fired, the sea surface was like boiling water, and at the same time, it gushed violently outside the pot, and the huge waves set off were huge, dense, and majestic!

Hundreds of guns, precisely placed, almost all fell in the same area, so powerful that they directly raised the entire sea level to the point where it reached like a mountain peak, and the momentum was so strong that it caused huge waves in a continuous line in this sea area, rather than a simple independent fountain......

The Black Pearl is like a frog that jumps into boiling water, and after being scalded by boiling water, it jumps suddenly...... It sped out of the Big Wave Zone, abruptly changing direction from its original straight line to zigzag towards the Dreadnought.

The artillery kept firing, and the rolling waves set off with the Black Pearl, and from a distance, the Black Pearl looked like a heavy truck driving into a pond, and large rapids swirled from both sides of the hull, submerging the entire hull.

Rumble!

A shell hit the side of the Black Pearl's hull, sending pieces of wood flying.

A sailor screamed and flew into the air in a huge explosion.

Before he could land, two shells hit the bow deck and the other side of the hull in succession, and the debris and dust of the explosion fluttered in the air like the wind swept the leaves, whistling and circling.

The cannonballs kept flying in the air, whistling and whining, forming a continuous long sound......

At that moment, Shen Yi and the others looked at this spectacular and fierce scene, as if they had returned to the battlefield of World War II, the sky was full of gunsmoke, and there were shells everywhere.

And all this turned out to be caused by an ancient warship of the sixteenth century.

"Oh my god, is this still an old-fashioned warship?" Hong Lang muttered, "A modern cruiser doesn't have such fierce firepower." ”

"It's just two F22s off the deck, and I wouldn't be surprised. Shen Yi was still calm.

He was even more surprised by the Black Pearl's performance than the dreadnought's terrifying firepower.

Despite the dreadnought's firepower and formidable power, the Black Pearl took minimal damage. It wasn't because the Dreadnought's attacks were inaccurate, in fact the shells were just too accurate. Shen Yi was almost certain that if it was used to hit himself, then as long as one or two salvos were fired, he could completely wipe out a ship on his side.

But the Black Pearl is different.

It's too fast and it's too reactive!

Whenever the cannonballs whistled down in the air, the Black Pearl was always able to steer ahead of the box and avoid the areas where the shells were most concentrated. Not only that, but it can even use the crest of the wave to form an afterburner on itself, just like Shen Yi did when he hit the Rover, giving itself the ability to jump quickly from one area to another like a short leap. This incredible ability to control the ship has exceeded the limits of practical use, and only exists in this abnormal world, and its dexterity and speed are like the vehicles controlled by Zhou Yiyu, completely subverting the laws of physics.

The Black Pearl kept shuttling and avoiding the monstrous waves, and it seemed that it was already approaching three hundred meters away from the Dreadnought.

This is the place where the artillery fire is most intensive, the waves are like boiling water in a pressure cooker constantly spraying outward, and the Black Pearl is moving vigorously in the wind and waves, like a swift under a storm, soaring freely, and people are trembling to watch!

When it dodged sideways again and dodged a rain of bullets, Hong Lang and the others finally couldn't help but shout: "Well done! Shen Yi, did you see what this ship did just now? It actually took advantage of the huge waves to displace! It was as free as on land, and it was drifting!"

"It's a nice play!"

"Just two hundred meters away, and they'll be able to get close to the Dreadnought. King Kong said in a deep voice: "I'm sure that if the Black Pearl can rush up so unscrupulously, it must have their victory." ”

The British Navy has a strong long-range firepower, and the Corsair has a strong broadside combat capability, which has been confirmed by Shen Yi and them.

"The problem is that they don't necessarily get this close to the Dreadnought so easily. Gentle said suddenly.

According to the information, the flagship of Pirates of the Caribbean is the Endeavour, but I don't think the name is imposing, so I changed it to the Dreadnought.
