After the fishing competition that was ruined by the pirate Barbosa was finally announced, under the command of the only two professional chefs on the boat, the sailors cheered and divided the harvested big fish and carried them into the kitchen below piece by piece. Some of them were marinated with salt and stored.
As ordinary sailors, they don’t care who loses and who wins the game. Anyway, they can have a hard meal every two days, and this is the most important thing!
It's just the second day of going out to sea. Sober foods like seafood meals or sea fish sets are still very attractive to them.
While the sailors were still dealing with the big shark, Barbosa couldn't wait to approach the witches. It was time for him to receive the winner's reward, and he had long thought about what to ask for from the witches.
"So, dear Lord Witch! Do you want to continue the competition?"
After Barca Bo proudly saluted Anne, he asked carefully. He didn't want any magical objects or other external objects, he wanted another reward.
"Hmph! No need! Even if you win this time!"
Anne looked at the sailors busy dividing sharks on the deck below the bridge in anger, and replied a little annoyedly! She will never play any fishing competitions with them again in the future! These people are worse than the other! The ability to take advantage of loopholes is also stronger than the other!
"So, my prize, Lord Dear Witch?"
Barbosa rubbed his hands and came to Anne. Isn’t the reason why he tried his best to win this fishing competition for this reward?
"How long have you been taking a shower? It's so stinking!"
Annie pinched her nose and walked away from the other party two steps. These pirates were covered in stench, and they were really smelly! Do they never take a shower or brush their teeth? It was disgusting to look at it!
"Tell me! What kind of prize do you want? Is it the kind of telescope that enchants Eagle Eye? Bring your telescope."
After two steps away from the smelly pirate, little Annie reluctantly stretched out her hand and signaled her to hand over the telescope.
Anyway, this kind of enchanting gadget is simply too simple for Annie. It's just a matter of doing it. She wants as much as she wants! This is why she is not afraid of losing the game, so she just treats it as a prize for letting them play with her. What's so amazing?
"I'm sorry, Lord Witch! I don't want any magic telescope. I just want you to help lift the curse on me and turn me back into a living person. That's all!"
Although Barcelona also wanted to enchant the telescope and other telescopes, they were also very envious, especially when Jack Sparrow fiddled in front of him from time to time.
However, compared to the curse that had tortured them for countless years and was tortured him all the time, which made him unable to fall asleep, taste good wine and delicacies, and even couldn't even eat an apple, lifting the curse and regaining the identity of a living person is the most important thing, and the rest, under this premise, is not that important.
"Relieve the curse? It's not impossible..."
Anne suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a strange curse of immortality on the pirate.
If you just want to lift this curse as a prize, it may not be so unacceptable. Anyway, whether it is to lift the curse or enchantment, it will not be more difficult for her than casting a broken fire.
"This is absolutely not possible! Master! You must not lift the curse for him! Sister Charlotte said that only after he took us to find the treasure can he be lifted."
Seeing that his master Anne was a little moved, the twin sister Cecilia, who was standing beside her, quickly spoke up to remind Anne.
She remembered Charlotte's instructions. Before she set out, the two sisters were told that when going out, in addition to taking care of their owner's daily life, she also had to be alert to these pirates or were cautious. Such behaviors as the current ones that require the curse to be lifted in advance are absolutely unavailable!
"That's right! He is the most cunning pirate like Barbosa! Now if you lift the curse for him, maybe he will run away secretly if he doesn't know when!"
The twin sister Christina on the other side was also talking, she felt that this bearded Barbosa was definitely not a good person.
"Huh? Yes! I can't lift the curse for you now! You'd better change another reward. Tell me quickly. I'll go to rest later."
After reminding the two twin sisters themselves, Annie also remembered this.
After all, they went out to sea to play and fought in the name of searching for treasures. How embarrassing would it be if they didn't find any treasures when they went back? Although she didn't think the pirate could escape under her nose, she didn't want to bother to stare at the other person all day, so she let him continue to be cursed.
"Ahh! Lord Anne, your decision is really wise!"
"I know this bad guy very well. He must have thought so just now. Once you lift the curse for him, Captain Sparrow dares to assure you that if you are not careful, you will let him run away!"
Jack Sparrow, who was gloating and afraid that the world would not be in chaos, also quickly added.
He hated Barbosa, the culprit who stole his Black Pearl, and therefore, he would spare no effort to do things that would make the other party unhappy, even if it would harm others and not benefit himself.
"I know him best! Lord Witch, I swear! After you lift the curse for him, he will never take us to find the treasure again, and maybe he will jump into the sea and run away at any time!"
"Jack, bastard! You will definitely regret it!"
Barbosa, who was exposed, glared at Jack Sparrow in anger, wishing she could pull out the knife and have a fierce fight with this guy who always faced him!
"Repent? No no, the great Captain Jack Sparrow never regrets!"
Sparrow twisted his waist and ran behind the three witches, pinched the orchid fingers behind him, and looked at Barbosa proudly. It was his greatest happiness to be able to cause trouble for the other party. How could he regret it? How could he regret it? An impossible thing!
"Hmph! So, what about this? I won't touch the curse for the time being. I want the Black Pearl as a prize! This condition should be OK, right?"
After sneering at Jack Sparrow, who was hiding behind the witch, Barbosa quickly thought of a good idea to fight back against his opponent and said something that could serve as a reward.
Why didn’t Jack Sparrow fight with him all day long? Isn’t he the most jealous Black Pearl? So, now I will completely row the ship to my name!
"Black Pearl? Is it the broken black ship in the port?"
After hearing this name again, Little Anne remembered the dirty and ragged black ship that was still anchored in the port of Port Royal. When she planned to go out to sea yesterday, she didn't choose that.
"If it's that black ship, you can! Then I'll make sure it's yours!"
Anyway, it's not my own thing, and I don't like it anyway, so it doesn't hurt that little Annie will send it out at all.
It is said that the black ship was captured when the bearded man came to attack the port the night before yesterday, right? Now he is sent back, it seems that she has not lost anything, right? Then just decide this way and give it to him when she goes back.
"No! The Black Pearl is mine!"
Jack Sparrow, who moved the stone and finally shot himself in the foot, suddenly became anxious. He really regretted that he was so mean just now. He was doing well, why did he have to cause trouble for himself?
"Ha! Sorry, it's mine again!"
After hearing what his arch-rival Jack said, Barcelona immediately retorted.
"What I said just now? You will definitely regret it. Now you are satisfied?"
Barbosa wanted to return to the Black Pearl on purpose. Who asked this bastard Jack to cause trouble for him? Since he would not be able to live a good life, then he would never let him be proud!
This is how professional pirates are. They can do things that harm others and are unfavorable to themselves. As long as they can make trouble for their opponents or make them unhappy, they can do anything.
"Wait for me, Barbosa!"
...
"There is a situation!"
Just as the two were tangled about the ownership of the Black Pearl, the alarm bell on the highest looking basket suddenly rang on the main mast of the Fearless.
When everyone on the deck looked up, they saw the lookout hand pointing in one direction and shouting loudly.
"There is a situation! Spanish warships! There are three ships in the northwest direction! They are heading towards us at high speed under the wind!"
What? Spanish warships? In this sea area? Or three? It’s a bad thing!
After lamenting in his heart, Norrington, who is now the captain of the Fearless, quickly took out his telescope and looked in the direction indicated by his watchman. He knew very well that Britain and Spain are not a friendly country now, and the chances of fighting between the two sides meeting at sea are very high!
You know, the Jamaican Islands in the United Kingdom were taken from Spain! The Spanish were so angry that they gritted their teeth for the British. The other party would definitely not let go of the desperation that was left alone, right?
If I think about it, if Norrington himself was an Espanyol, he would definitely come up to make a vote after seeing the lonely British warship, right? This is obviously certain. No matter who it is, he will not easily let go of the opportunity to attack his opponent on the sea.
Even if they are the British, they usually encounter a single Spanish merchant ship at sea, and they will still grab it if they have the chance? In the face of real interests, whether they are the Spanish or their British, they can switch between pirates and navy at any time.
It's indeed a Spanish warship!
Norrington vaguely saw three Spanish sailboats from the direction he observed from his telescope. However, since the bridge was not as high as the observation deck, he didn't see it very clearly here. He only knew that the other party was hanging Spanish flags and the direction of his sailing was on his side.
"Oh... they are really Spanish, ah? They are busy loading bullets now... Ah! They also opened the cannon doors! There are so many cannons!"
Jack Sparrow, who was standing beside the brigadier general, could see much more clearly after enchanting the telescope in his hand!
He even saw the busy sailors on Spanish warships, who were shouting and opening the gun doors and pushing out the gun doors.
"I think we might be in trouble this time, guys."
Obviously, Sparrow saw that the Spaniards were ready for a full battle and planned to completely take over the single British Fearless battleship. They were coming over smoothly, but they did not intend to let themselves and others escape.
If it weren't for knowing that no one would catch up with him when his Fearlessness was running at full speed, Jack Sparrow would have been ready to jump into the sea and escape at any time. If it were other ordinary sailboats, when they were going against the wind, they would have basically failed.
"What? Let me see!"
Norrington was surprised when he heard Jack Sparrow's words, and then he quickly snatched the other party's enchantment telescope and began to observe.
It was true! The Spaniards had really prepared for combat in advance. Their three ships now not only lined up in the best double-team formation for combat, but also pushed out one gun to the gun door, intending to cut towards their own Fearless at full speed and launch a fierce shelling attack.
"What are you still standing there? Raise all the sails! We must prepare to retreat at full speed!"
Under the stern command of Brigadier General Norrington, the sailors immediately became busy.
Now, Norrington seemed a little lucky. Fortunately, these witches had already magically transformed the Fearless. Otherwise, in the face of the wind, these people would have been doomed!
“No retreat is allowed!”
When Annie's eyes immediately lit up when she heard about the battle.
Sailing! Adventure! Fight! Find treasure!
Are these exciting and fun things the purpose of her coming out of Port Royal this time? After the fishing competition, Little Annie, who had been bored for a long time, was planning to find something to do!
Now, after finally meeting something that is not eye-catching, he is so brave that he dares to attack her ship. How could she retreat? He must fight! The cannons are pushed out and they are killed! Little Annie has decided that she will aim at them in person and ignite the cannon himself. This is a satisfying thing to think about!
"Now, everyone listens to me: Yang Fan speeds up! The gunners start to load, and we are going to prepare for the battle!"
Little Annie stood proudly on the guardrail of the bridge and began to command the sailors who were stunned below with great enthusiasm.
"You guys aren't hurrying?"
Seeing that the sailors and artillerymen below were stunned, little Annie couldn't help but glar at them, and clusters of flames began to emerge on her body.
"Ah? Yes! Everyone, fight ready!"
After receiving two contradictory orders, the sailors and the gunners were stunned for a while before they realized that on the Fearless, everything was decided by the witch! So, after repeating the order quickly, they quickly followed the orders of the little witch to lift the sail, load the bullets, and began to get busy.
"This...this, this is simply nonsense!"
Seeing that this little witch actually wanted to fight three large Spanish warships with the Fearless, Brigadier General Norrington jumped straight away. Isn't this a mess?
"Okay, don't worry, Brigadier General? Anyway, we have witches here, so we will definitely not lose, right?"
After taking back his telescope, Jack Sparrow carefully wiped it before stuffing it back into his pocket at his waist. This telescope is his treasure, just like his compass, and cannot be taken away by others.
Since there are three witches on this Fearless ship, what is there to worry about Sparrow? The witches have so many witchcrafts and the flame magic is so powerful. How could they be afraid of the other party’s three warships?
Therefore, Sparrow felt that Norrington's rigid brigade general's mind still could not turn around. He believed that the next naval battle would be very different from the kind they had in the past.
"Uh...well, maybe you're right."
After Norrington was snatched away from the telescope, he was stunned for a moment. Thinking about what Sparrow said, it seemed to be reasonable. Anyway, there are witches on their side, so they shouldn't be afraid? Their flame magic is so powerful that if they can't beat the artillery battle, they can rush up at high speed and let the witch set fire to the other party?
"Hey! The one at the helm above! Hurry up and bring the boat across. I want to use this row of cannons to attack them. How can I fight if you drive the boat straight like this?"
Little Anne stood next to the deck gun position. When the gunners loaded the fire demon and shells and inserted the leads, Little Anne took the torch and turned around to scold the helmsman who drove the ship loudly.
Now, the enemy is getting closer and closer, and she can't wait to try it out with a few shots.
Chapter completed!
