Little Anne's fleet of transporting treasures has been sailing on the sea for several more days, and it took more than two months. She sailed for so long, and she didn't know what was going on in Port Royal, nor did she want to know what was going on.
For Anne, she is just a passerby in this world, and it will be a little bit of a matter of whether she will come back here in the future. So, no matter what Charlotte and the others have to tossed the world, how many people they have killed or occupied, what does that have to do with her?
It was just that he taught the other party some magic, gave a magic book, and asked the bear to borrow a little bit of power. Now something big happened, should he blame her?
At this time, European countries' exploration, development or plunder of the New World is in full swing.
And in the Caribbean area that is about to rush, the route here is even more lively!
All kinds of merchant pirates or gold diggers are seen everywhere in the Caribbean. Basically, after entering important routes, you can often see other ships from afar.
On the way back, Little Anne's fleet would occasionally encounter merchant ships or warships from certain countries. Although the other party was very curious about this fleet of a full-sailed warship dragging two warships without Yang Fan and sailing at a high speed of nearly ten knots, they did not dare to meddle in other people's business, but they just stopped it immediately after seeing it from afar. Of course, this also includes the suspected pirate ships that did not fly any flags that appear from time to time.
During these days of voyage, no ship dared to provoke or approach the strange fleet of these three warships. As long as it is not a fool, no one dared to touch this sight and know that it is a warship with a hard nail.
For pirates, they usually only grab ordinary merchant ships at most. Even if they encounter armed merchant ships, they will be defeated if they accidentally encounter them!
Because there are usually about a dozen to twenty cannons on armed merchant ships. If you encounter some crazy merchant ship captains, they are more likely to stuff thirty or forty cannons on armed merchant ships. The idea in the minds of those madmen is that the weight of artillery and shells must be consistent with the weight of the goods!
There are many jokes circulating in the Caribbean Sea, saying that it was a group of pirates who were blind and used two smaller fast ships to try to rob an armed merchant ship. However, when the two pirate ships approached and were about to jump to the gang, the captain of the merchant ship opened the gun door at the order, and the big merchant ship that looked very ordinary outside suddenly turned into a para-warship with nearly forty artillery guns. The pirates were so shocked that they were so souled that they were chased and beaten up by a merchant ship for an afternoon. If they hadn't run fast, they would have almost sank!
"Ha! Dear... Captain Jack Sparrow? I found an interesting situation where you have recently, become, very, very anxious?"
Barbosa saw Jack Sparrow use his telescope to watch the sea around him from time to time, as if he was guarding against something, so he walked behind the other party and began to joke in a bad tone.
In Barbosa's opinion, this behavior of the other party was very abnormal!
You know, Jack Sparrow is not the captain of the Fearless. He observes the situation around him so conscientiously. Moreover, when he was the captain of the Black Pearl, he didn't work so actively, right?
Besides, observing the surrounding sea conditions is the responsibility of those lookouts on the mast. What kind of thought is Sparrow? Under normal circumstances, shouldn't he drink in the cabin or in the sailor's room?
"Scared? Oh... it's you bastard, Barbosa!"
Jack Sparrow was startled by the sound behind him and almost threw the telescope into the sea.
When he turned around and saw Barbosa standing behind him, he breathed a little relieved. He quickly put away his telescope carefully and spoke calmly.
"Anxiety? What's the point of worrying about me? Look? No! Not at all! You must have read it wrong, that's it!"
Jack Sparrow replied casually, but his slightly nervous action still betrayed him deeply. Usually, he was definitely not like this.
"Oh? Is that true?"
Barbosa stared at Jack Sparrow for a while before she grinned.
"If, I remember correctly, you seem to have owed some people debts? Now, it's almost time to repay it, right?"
Barbosa was angry when he remembered that Jack Sparrow had seduced the little witch to trouble the sea monster before.
"No! There is no such thing at all. I, Jack Sparrow, do not owe anyone any debts! Instead, you! You still owe me a Black Pearl! Be careful, traitor!"
Jack Sparrow looked at Barbosa with a bad look.
"So, then, do you need me to remind you?"
Barbosa ignored Jack Sparrow's threat, pretended to be like a little and thought for a while, and then said in an exaggerated tone:
"Ha! I remembered it, what is his name? By the way! What are you wearing? Oh! David? Jones!"
He knew very well about the entanglement between David Jones and Jack Sparrow. How could he get over the other party in just a few words?
"Please stop saying that name!"
As soon as Jack Sparrow heard this name, his face pretended to be calm immediately collapsed, and he looked at Barbosa in a half-pleasing tone.
"Please! Never mention that name in front of me!"
Jack Sparrow was really a little scared. He really didn't want to serve on that ghost ship for a hundred years! Not to mention a hundred years, even a year won't do it!
"Oh! Come on, Jack! It's not okay for you to escape blindly. I advise you to go to the flying Dutchman to serve for a hundred years. Then, when you are released from prison, I will definitely return the Black Pearl to you! Hahaha!"
After saying that, Barbosa laughed at herself, and finally added.
"If I were alive at that time, I would definitely return it to you!"
Barbosa's greatest happiness is to make the other person uncomfortable.
After so long he was on the voyage, he was suppressed by Jack Sparrow everywhere, so now he was able to make trouble for the other party, and there was nothing better than this.
"you!!!"
Jack Sparrow was so angry that he was about to kill a guy and have a fight with this bastard. Now, the other party is not immortal, and there is no need to be afraid of him!
However, when holding the hilt of his sword, Jack Sparrow was stunned for a while, as if he suddenly remembered something, and his expression suddenly became relaxed.
"Ah! I suddenly remembered, you are right. I don't need to escape anything at all. Just let them come. I'm not afraid of them at all!"
When Jack Sparrow saw three witches on the bridge who were teasing the seagulls with food, he suddenly lit up his eyes and quickly calmed down.
"Is that so? I don't think you feel as relaxed as you pretend to be on your face."
Barbosa said a little suspiciously. He felt that this bastard Sparrow must be fighting some conspiracy again. He had to be careful and stop his words.
"No! Barbosa, you were wrong! I really don't worry at all now!"
After saying that, Jack Sparrow came to Barbossa's ear and whispered:
"Because, I suddenly remembered that I am different from you. Now I have a powerful witch as my backer!"
Although I had already told the little witch about the sea monster before, now that things are coming, Jack Sparrow is still a little uneasy.
He was worried that if this little witch could not defeat the huge sea monster, wouldn't he be dead? When he thought of serving on the flying Dutchman for a hundred years, he felt a wave of unwillingness.
"Jack Sparrow! You're indeed degenerate!"
Barbosa looked at Jack Sparrow in shock. He didn't expect that this shameless bastard was still thinking about this. It turned out that he was talking about the sea monster with the witch at that time, for this?
"You want to rely on a little girl to escape the debt you deserve? You really make me, who is also a pirate, feel disgusted!"
Barbosa doesn't care much about Jack Sparrow's debt collection.
What he cared about was that he was still on the same boat with the other party. Before returning to Port Royal and gaining freedom, he did not want to cause trouble, nor did he want to put himself in danger because of a bastard.
"No! You're wrong again, I want to make a statement now."
After Jack Sparrow figured it out, he pinched his signature orchid finger and walked to the guardrail.
"You know, I, the great Captain Jack Sparrow! I am employed by the witch now, and as an employer, it is not natural to help the staff solve some minor trouble?"
When it comes to sophistry, Captain Sparrow was never afraid of anyone, even Barbosa, the old rival.
"Jack! Do you think those witches will be opponents of David Jones and the Flying Dutchman?"
Barbosa shook his head and continued to speak in an inconvenient tone.
"You will definitely kill everyone on the boat!"
If his Black Pearl was next to him, Barbosa would have left Yang Fan long ago. He would never want to go to this muddy water with this Jack Sparrow. This is simply a life-threatening effort!
Unfortunately, he doesn't have many choices now, unless he is willing to abandon the Black Pearl and get a small boat to leave the fleet now.
"Why not? I believe you have seen their strength too? I am very confident in Lord Witch!"
Jack Sparrow sneered and retorted that it was Barbosa who gave him unhappiness just now, but now it was his turn to give him unhappiness.
"If you still have a little bit of conscience, I think you'd better leave this fleet in a boat, so as to save countless innocent people from getting killed! Don't forget that David Jones has more than just the flying Dutchman, he also has that sea monster, the big octopus sea monster!"
Barbosa began to roar in anger, and the spitting stars splashed Jack Sparrow's face.
"Ha? Conscience? This is the funniest joke I heard today!"
Jack Sparrow pushed Barbosa and his big bearded face away.
"A traitor who shamelessly betrayed his captain, now, what kind of conscience is said to me? Don't you think this is unconvincing?"
When Jack Sparrow thought about the time when he was looking for treasure, he was immediately betrayed and lost his beloved Black Pearl when he was trying to find a treasure. Jack Sparrow felt a gritting hatred.
If it weren't for this bastard, how could those sailors unite to rebel? If it weren't for him, how could he be thrown on a deserted island and almost die?
"Sea Monster? I heard it right? You guys just said that Sea Monster? Where is it?"
Annie directly supported the railing and looked outside the boat, trying to find the sea monster that the other party mentioned.
Little Anne had been playing with the rudder on the bridge and playing with the seagulls. When she was bored and ready to go to her captain's room, she accidentally heard the conversation between the two people along the ship on the deck below, as if they were talking about some sea monsters?
So she quickly ran to Jack and Barbosa, and stood on the guardrail to look at the sea outside the ship. Unfortunately, there was nothing on the sea.
"Where is the sea monster? Where is it? Where is the sea monster?!"
Seeing the little witch so excited, Barbosa gasped.
Looking at the other party's excited look, he felt that this witch was not afraid of sea monsters. Could it be that Jack Sparrow really escaped this disaster?
You have to think of a way!
He was about to come forward and sow discord, saying bad things about Jack Sparrow. It would be better for the witch to agree with his idea: Leave this Jack Sparrow!
Unfortunately, Barbosa was still a step slower. He saw Jack Sparrow climbing to the little witch at a faster speed, and then began to smile flatteringly.
"The most powerful witch, the great goddess of flame, and the respected lady Anne Hasta!"
Jack Sparrow came to Little Annie with a flattery, and after performing an inappropriate manner, he then looked at the other person with a determined look on his face.
"I found that we may have been targeted by a group of evil creatures, and they are not good at coming!"
Aren't David Jones and the monsters under him just evil creatures? Of course, there is also his big octopus! So, Jack Sparrow's statement is not wrong.
"He's talking nonsense! He..."
Barbosa was about to step forward to refute it, letting the witch recognize Sparrow's shameless face. Unfortunately, he was immediately pushed to the side by Jack Sparrow with his back, blocking the little Annie's view towards him.
"And, there is a huge sea monster in the hands of those evil creatures!"
Since this little witch likes to find trouble with the sea monster so much, Sparrow certainly has to try his best to satisfy him. He believes that the sea monster will definitely come.
"Is there really a sea monster? Don't lie to me!"
Little Anne looked at Jack Sparrow with some doubt. A few days ago, he said that a sea monster was coming, but until now, there was nothing.
She likes these strange things or monsters. The stronger the other party, the better, the more cruel the better!
"Large! There are several ships that add up to this size!"
Jack Sparrow gestured exaggeratedly with his hands. The big octopus could easily swallow a large sailboat. Even the Fearless, he would probably be dragged to the bottom of the sea by the other party?
If there is no witch on this ship, that is certain.
"It's really that big? That's really great!"
Anne clenched her fist and waved it hard.
It's really such a big sea monster? It's so great! If you like it, you must catch it and turn it into your own toy!
Well…just like Teebers, the bear?
"By the way, there is another small thing! The monsters seem to want to catch me! Then... As your capable subordinate, I don't know if I can seek a little bit of your protection?"
Jack Sparrow once again blocked Barbosa, who wanted to say something, and did not give the other party a chance to speak.
"This is very simple, don't worry! I won't let them catch you, hum!"
Anne raised her fist and promised to arrive.
This time she went out to play in the sea, and the pirate she hired seemed to have helped a lot, so she decided to help him.
"Ahhh! Thank you so much for your generosity!"
Jack Sparrow took off his captain's hat this time and gave Anne a sincere gift.
Although it also knew that its behavior was a bit disgusting, now it was about to escape the fate of being captured and being coolie by relying on the witch, which was enough.
"No! Lord Witch, don't be deceived by this shameless villain!"
Barbosa finally pushed away Jack Sparrow who was blocking his way, grabbed Anne, and began to say hurriedly.
"It's true that there are a group of evil creatures chasing him, but they just want to catch this Jack Sparrow! There's no need for you to protect him, he's a shameless bastard! He wants to use you!"
Now, it was Barbosa's turn to block Jack Sparrow, who wanted to say something.
"So...so, do they really have sea monsters?"
Annie bit her finger and thought about it. She decided to ignore this for the time being. She just wanted to know if there was any such sea monster under the other party's hands?
"Sea Monster? This...is indeed a huge and evil sea monster, but..."
Barbosa wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Anne's wave.
"There are really sea monsters? Then there's no problem!"
Anne walked onto the bridge happily, and then shouted to the sailor:
"Sale halfway down! We have to walk slowly. Maybe the sea monster will catch up with us! I want to see what it looks like! Hurry up! Why are you still standing there? Go and give orders?"
After Annie discovered something fun, she was not in a hurry to go back. Anyway, in her opinion, it has been out for so long, so it doesn't matter if it's a little late.
"Ah? Yes! Obey the order! Sir!"
When the sailor heard the little witch saying that he wanted to lower the ship speed just to see some sea monster, he was so scared that he was stunned for a while, then he realized and began to turn around and give orders to the sailors.
Since Lord Witch intends to see some sea monster and she is so powerful, then just do whatever she wants.
"Quick, hurry up! Put half of the sails away! We're going to start slowing down!"
Below the bridge, after repeating the orders on the deck, the sailors began to climb up the mast and became busy. They needed to put away their ordinary sails and sail at a slower speed.
"Ahhh! The weather is really good today."
Jack Sparrow looked at Barbosa proudly, and he was very happy to see the other party being defeated.
"Maybe, we have something good to eat tonight? How about barbecue octopus? And, it's a big octopus!"
Jack Sparrow stretched out ten fingers and made an octopus-like grimace opposite Barbosa, making the other party gasp.
"Hmph! Just keep being proud, I have a way to cause trouble for you!"
After a cold snorting, Barbosa thought for a while, gritted her teeth and took out a notebook from her pocket.
"What is that? Show me?"
After seeing Barbosa take out a notebook, Jack Sparrow was stunned for a moment. He was about to reach out to grab it and take a look, but the other party avoided it.
"I think it's better to let you confuse the little witch to find a sea monster with you, it's better to let her find another interesting and non-hazardous thing. What do you think?"
Barbosa Yangyang had a notebook inlaid with red gems in his hand. He had never understood this thing, nor could he understand it.
Originally, he wanted to keep this thing, but now that he needs valuable items to distract the little witch, there is no more suitable thing than this one.
So, after teasing Jack Sparrow but not telling the other party what it was, he sneered and walked towards the little witch on the bridge.
"Hey! Barbosa? What exactly is that thing in your hand?"
Jack Sparrow hurriedly ran forward, on the one hand, wanting to know what the laptop in the other person was, and on the other hand, wanting to stop the other person from letting this bastard ruin his big affairs.
"Wait, why not do this? Let's discuss it?"
Jack Sparrow, who always felt that things were not simple, was a little uneasy. He always felt that what the other party had in his hands seemed not simple.
So, he hurriedly stopped Barbosa in front of him, while smiling hard, while blocking the other party behind him, as if trying his best to stop the other party from approaching the little witch.
“Get out of here!”
After pushing Jack Sparrow away, Barbosa walked to Little Anne with a smile.
"Great Witch, I think there is nothing fun about the sea monster. Why not do this? Let's turn now and find a magic weapon easily?"
After saying that, Barbosa respectfully handed over the notebook with red gems inlaid with both hands.
He was originally reluctant to let this thing go, even if he couldn't understand it, he wanted to leave it to his descendants as a family heirloom or something in the future. However, now he no longer cared about so many things. He didn't know where his descendants' mother was. He had just recovered from human body, so there was no hurry.
"Art? Real or fake?"
Little Annie took the other party's notebook with a suspicion and began to frown and look.
Of course Annie likes the artifacts!
However, she did not think that in this world with very low magic elements, there would be any valuable artifact. Could this bearded man just casually used a magic item to fool himself? Will their superficial magical insight know what kind of artifact is and what kind of enchantment items are?
"Mr. Witch! I, Hector Barbosa, swear to the sea that everything I say is true!"
In order to cause trouble for Jack Sparrow, Barbosa also took the initiative. Not only did hedge-like artifacts to find a guide, but he also swears to the sea.
"This is a magical artifact! According to legend, it should be the trident of the fallen sea god Poseidon at dusk! If you have it, you can have the power to rule the entire ocean! Those who hold it and will use it correctly will completely rule the entire ocean of the world!"
Barbosa believed that this little witch should use such magical items, provided that she could find the trident.
"It is said that as long as you have it, even the powerful goddess of the ocean, you have to bow your knees and surrender to it!"
This kind of magic weapon that sounds so scary, Barbosa said it is impossible not to be jealous!
However, after having it for so many years, Barbosa still has no clue. He really can't understand the strange star map on it and the riddle-like code words like riddles and poems! So, facing such a useless man, he could only endure the pain and contribute to the witch. It would be good to be able to cause trouble for that bastard Sparrow.
"Trident!!!"
Hearing this, Jack Sparrow gasped.
He has indeed heard a lot of legends about this thing. Of course, it is just a legend. He doesn't think there will be such a magical thing that can rule the entire ocean.
But he never expected that Barbossa could even bring out such a thing now? Look at the little witch who quickly looked through it, it seemed to be really reliable? Could it be true? If it was true, Barbossa would contribute?
This is very unreasonable!
"Dear Lord Witch, this book must be fake! He is lying to you, I'm sure he will never be so kind!"
Jack Sparrow quickly stepped forward and said bad things about the other party. No matter what, whether it is true or false, he would cause trouble for Barbosa and not ruin his own affairs for him.
With a bang, little Annie suddenly closed the notebook.
"Sailors are long! The command is full of sails, the southeast direction, and the speed is going forward! We are going to find the artifact!"
Little Annie glanced at Jack Sparrow in anger. Is it true or false? Can't she see it?
Moreover, if you go to the place where the treasure is buried, you will know it? As long as it is true, then the trident must be buried under the sea at that location. Isn’t it enough to go into the sea to take a look?
"Ah? Yes, obey the order..."
I just put away the sails and slowed down shortly, but now I have to move forward at full speed again? This little witch who changes every day is really hard to serve!
In desperation, the sailors could only agree and do it again to the complaining sailors climbed up the masts and put down the sails that had just been put away so that the ship could run at full speed.
"That... Lord Witch, don't you have to wait until the evening to compare the star map to determine the location of the artifact?"
Barbosa knew that the burial place of the artifact seemed to be related to the location of the stars in the sky. Then, the gem seemed to be the key to breaking the deadlock, but he had no idea what to do.
"Ah? I have to wait for the night to see the stars? Why do you need to be so troublesome?"
Little Annie looked at the uneducated pirate leader in anger, but because the other party had contributed such a good thing, she decided to explain it to him.
"I tell you, no matter how complicated or mysterious it is written in the book, in fact, one thing will never change!"
Little Anne raised her notebook with rubies inlaid in her hand.
"What won't change?"
Neither Barbosa nor Jack Sparrow understood very well what the witch wanted to say.
"Of course it's the burial place of the treasure!"
"Anyway, the location will not change. So, as long as you infer the distribution of stars in more than ten years based on the above prompts, you will of course know the specific location where the artifact is buried!"
"I saw the distribution of stars a few nights ago. Now I can infer it a little bit, it's quite simple."
Such a simple question needs to be asked?
Annie looked at the two pirate leaders with contempt. She still had to ask such a simple question? Moreover, the content written in this book is too superficial and has no technicality at all. Even prisoners who have some research on astrological signs can crack it. How could it be stumped by little Annie herself?
If Anne wrote secret words about burying treasures herself, she would definitely use magic patterns, inscriptions, and magic traps to make a protective shell. The contents inside would also be disguised with ancient magic language, special magic knowledge, and some rare secret code. Finally, a magic device would be added to kill all the bastards who can't understand the secret words!
"Pull...infer the distribution of stars more than ten years later?"
Or should we infer based on the stars I saw a few days ago?
Very simple?
Barbosa and Jack Sparrow have fallen into petrochemicals…
Sure enough, the witch cannot be easily trained. It is not unreasonable that this little witch is so powerful! Look, she was able to use the astrological signs she had seen a few days ago to infer the distribution of stars in the future? Can she also accurately infer the burial location of the magical artifact?
Is this...this is something that ordinary people can do?
What are you still looking at us with that kind of contemptuous look?
We know we are stupid, but don't compare ourselves with us like this, right?
Jack Sparrow was better, but he was a little shocked at the witch's horror. Anyway, he was used to it. Barbosa suffered a critical hit of almost 10,000 injuries. You know, he had studied this note for several years... In the end, he could not resist the rough glances of a little witch?
Is the gap between these mortals and real witches really that big?
Sure enough... it is not unreasonable for the church to burn witches... If they don't burn them, how can there be a way for mortals to live?
Chapter completed!
