Chapter 435 The Dreadnought

The Fearless, this is a huge sailing warship, famous on the sea, and there are very few ships that can compete with it.

However, at this time, even though it was sunny and riding on the Fearless, which was hard to find an opponent at sea, the owner of the ship still looked frowning.

"Commander, is there any news about Elizabeth?" Governor Swan would come to the captain's office every morning to ask about his daughter, and then sit here for a day.

"Sorry, Governor Swan, we are still searching. Please rest assured that we will find her soon." Commander Norrington replied.

"Commander, maybe we should accept their advice and go to Tortuga to inquire about the news. It is the gathering place of the island, and there may be news about Black Pearl and Elizabeth." Governor Swan pondered for a moment and suggested.

Norrington shook his head slightly, disagreed with this idea, "As you said, there is a place where pirates are rampant, and the Fearless is a royal warship. Once it arrives in Tortuga, it will definitely be attacked by pirates."

"Although I hate pirates and hope to execute them all on the gallows, we have not destroyed the power of Tortuga at the moment, and we must be clear about ourselves."

"We don't have to approach Tortuga in person, we just need to send a small boat to wait for them to send back the news. If any pirates dare to offend, we have the strength to deal with it." Governor Swan insisted.

He was anxious when his daughter was tied up by a pirate, but he still couldn't see any trace of the Black Pearl after searching for many days. He could only place his hope in the place where the pirates gathered, hoping that it would bring him some good news.

Norrington was silent for a long time and finally nodded, "Okay, for Elizabeth!"

"Transfer to Tortuga."

An hour later, a navy ran into the captain's room in panic, "Commander, we seem to have discovered the Black Pearl, please confirm."

"Black Pearl? Where is it? Take me to see." Governor Swann stood up and hurriedly walked outside, Norrington followed closely behind.

On the sea far away from the Fearless, a large black sailing ship sailed in the other direction on the sea, opposite to the Fearless, forming an angle.

"It's the Black Pearl, approach it, fill in shells, and prepare for attack." Norrington ordered quickly.

"Elizabeth may still be on the Black Pearl." Governor Swan said quickly, afraid that the shells would be eyeless and hurt their daughter.

Norrington thought about it and what Governor Swan said made some sense, and Elizabeth was not only Governor Swan's only daughter, but also immediately became her fiancée, so she really had to ensure her safety.

"First fire a warning and ask for negotiation!" Norrington clenched his fists and finally said with difficulty.

He was unwilling to negotiate with the pirates, but for Elizabeth's safety, he was willing to temporarily forget his principles.

"As for orders, sir!"

On the other side, Black Pearl also discovered the warship.

"Don't worry, captain, they can't catch up with us." The pirates said proudly, saying that the fastest ship on the Black Pearl Sea was not a false reputation.

Grey nodded calmly. For the pirates, it is impossible to expect them to think about fighting when they meet the navy. Escape is the norm. Their targets are those big, fat and not very combat-effective merchant ships.

The navy had no farts, and they could not even beat them, and even if they won, they would not get any supplies that would be useful to them.

For example, guns, swords, clothes and other daily necessities are useless to them, they only want shining things.

So when you encounter a navy, you will run away. There is no need to fight at all. No matter what the fight is, it will be a loss.

Of course, if you encounter a small group of navy, and if they happen to be bored, you can also go up and bully them.

Gray did not come to this world for a fight, so he agreed with the pirates' suggestions, asking Jack to command Black Pearl to distance himself from the warship.

"Captain, that should be the Fearless, the largest ship in Port Royal, with more than sixty guns and powerful bow and stern guns. Whether it is pursuit or retreat, it will not leave any opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of."

Gibbs reminded, a trace of memories flashed in his eyes.

"Of course, everyone knows that it is the overlord of the sea, but it cannot catch up with the Black Pearl. The Black Pearl is the fastest ship on the sea." Jack said proudly, and re-controlling the rudder of the Black Pearl made him full of energy.

Gray nodded slightly. The Black Pearl was indeed very fast, but she was essentially modified from a slave ship, and the cannon was changed to a pirate ship, so she herself did not have a bow gun or a stern gun.

To attack the enemy, you usually get close quickly and then attack with the guns on the side.

"Captain, the Fearless is chasing us, and its target is us." Gibbs reported again, and he always paid attention to the movement behind him.

"Is the Fearless ship from the Port Royal?" Gray asked hesitantly, listening to the familiar name.

In the Pirates of the Caribbean, he remembered only a few ships, the Black Pearl and the Queen of Anna, and well, the flying Dutchman.

He had a little impression of the Fearless, as if it was a Port Royal ship with the Interceptor.

"Yes, her commander was Colonel Norrington, a man who hated pirates, and any pirate who dared to approach Port Royal would be killed under their artillery fire."

"It's Brigadier General Norrington." Elizabeth looked at the Fearlessness behind him. "He was promoted just a few days ago, and he proposed to me that day."

"It seems that his achievements in the Caribbean were recognized by George II." Gibbs smiled.

Elizabeth looked at Gray and found that he was still looking at the Fearless. He turned his head and looked at Gibbs in confusion and said, "Mr. Gibbs, please forgive me for taking the liberty. I seem to have seen you and heard your name before."

"Of course, Miss Swan, when you and Governor Swan came to the Caribbean from England, I was responsible for escorting you on the Fearless. Of course, compared to Mr. Norrington, I am just a small character, and it is normal for you to forget."

Elizabeth widened her eyes, "Then why are you?"

A navy serving a maritime overlord like the Fearless is an enviable existence in the eyes of many people, and he actually became a pirate, which she could not understand.

"Rum, for rum, pirates are the freest profession in the world. I like pirates, yell at rum!" Gibbs took out his small wine pot and took a sip, showing a comfortable expression.

Elizabeth couldn't understand even more. Someone betrayed the Navy for rum. This reason is too incredible.

"Mr. Gibbs, the other party seems to be singing flags at us. Since you were once a navy, you should be able to understand what it means, right?" Gray handed the telescope in his hand to Gibbs.

Jack looked at Gray's telescope, then his small monocular, and suddenly felt that the treasure in his hand was not fragrant. "Captain, I can speak the flag, I can just come and see it."

He said that he wanted to snatch the telescope from Gibbs.

"Jack, you have to command the Black Pearl, just leave this to me." Gibbs dodged lightly, put the telescope in front of him, and found that what he had used before was slag.
