Chapter 165 Cave Hunting
The mantis stalks the cicada, and the oriole is behind.
The Fearless, who focused on tracking the marks, did not notice that there was a ship hanging from behind them.
A large Chinese Jungship—Pinghai.
"It's really lively."
Mrs. Qing stood on the main seat on the second floor of the treasure ship, and the personal maid Liu Xin told the situation at the scene to Mrs. Qing, who was close to blindness.
"Edward's boy is quite capable of making trouble. He actually bravely led the Royal Navy over."
"Madam, are we going to join the battle?"
“Join? Why?”
Mrs. Qing said coldly: "We cannot compete with the battleship with our firepower."
"And I always think that little devil Jack is not stupid enough to do something that can cause trouble. He should have other plans."
"Are there any traces of Jackdaws found?"
"Yes, a cannon sound came from the back of the island before, and it should be the Jackdaw hiding outside the battlefield."
"back……"
Mrs. Qing pondered for a moment: "It just so happened that we also took a detour to the island to see what Xin Sheng was planning."
...
When the Fearless Sail was about to intervene in the battlefield, the Black Pearl and the Intercept stopped the shelling at the same time, and the sailors on both sides also temporarily stopped under the orders of the first mates on their respective ships.
"run?"
"Run! If you have any brain problems, you will fight the battleship!"
Pirates are just profit-oriented people, and the two sides temporarily put aside their conflicts in the face of greater threats.
The two ships reached a consensus ended the battle, and the sailors who jumped on the side of the gang returned to their own ships to prepare for evacuation.
"Sir, the enemy ship is planning to escape!"
Norrington ordered coldly: "Full firepower, leave them."
"Boom! Boom!"
The 70 large and small cannons on the Fearless began to roar one after another, and the Black Pearl and the first mate of the Interceptor were busy steering and dodging.
The previous sideways caused considerable damage to both sides.
The lower cabin of the Interceptor was severely soaked in water, and the submast of the Black Pearl broke.
When the three-ship melee like cat-catching and mouse-like cat-catching and mouse-catching begins at the sea, a hunting and anti-hunting battle begins in the cave where Barbosa preserves treasures.
As soon as he stepped into the entrance of the cave, the three pirates walking in front stepped on the simple rope trap arranged by Xin Sheng, screaming and being hung upside down into the air.
"Bang!"
The golden lamppost pulled by the rope mechanism swept from the air, and took these three pirates who could not dodge to the mountain wall.
The crisp sound of bone shattering made Barbosa's eyebrows twitch.
Although these three pirates cannot be killed due to curses, they will not be able to restore their combat effectiveness at least for a short period of time.
The old nest that should have been very familiar with made Barbosa and others feel particularly unfamiliar at this time, and the various mechanisms scattered in the cave made them unable to defend themselves.
What annoyed Barbosa the most was not the endless traps of mechanisms.
When he walked through the trap formation with the last two sailors who had preserved their combat power, he had not even seen the shadow of the enemy.
Will Turner ran away as expected, and Barbosa suspected that it was the net of heaven and earth set by the thief boy for a moment.
"No, no."
During the time he sailed to the Island of Death, Barbosa learned about Will and surveyed him.
Barbosa asked himself that his eyes were quite accurate. In his eyes, Will was just an honest blacksmith, and he didn't even know his father's true identity.
‘Is someone coveting my treasure?’
For many years, Barbosa and the sailors of the Black Pearl have stored all the treasures they robbed on the Island of Death.
These treasures are their hope for the future.
The cursed sailors could not feel any beauty in the world. They planned to save the treasure until the curse was lifted and squandered it again and enjoy it.
After struggling to break through the trap formation, Barbosa asked the last two sailors to walk in front and carefully came to the top of the treasure pile.
As he climbed up to look into the distance, Barbosa looked around with the moonlight transmitted from the top of the cave, and found no abnormalities. Even the three guards who should have been subdued by the enemy were gone.
Using the claw hook repaired by Will, Xin Sheng was hanging behind the stalactites above the cave.
Due to the different light and dark areas of light and shadow in the cave, Xin Sheng's location is located in the visual blind spot of Barbosa and others. He patiently waited for the three of them to walk directly below him.
‘It’s now!’
Release his hands holding the rope, Xin Sheng took off the Hepal sickle blade in his mouth in mid-air.
"Buzz!"
Before landing, Hepal's sword light cut through the necks of two pirates walking in front.
While the enemy's neck was spurted out, Xin Sheng captured Barbosa with a shocked face through the sprayed blood.
While landing, Xin Sheng pushed the ground with his legs, converting the impact force of landing into forward impulse.
"clang!"
Xin Sheng originally thought that Barbosa could not react in the flash, and even if he reacted subconsciously, he would not use weapons to block it. After all, he had been immortal for 10 years.
However, Barbosa not only lifted his weapon in time and used his skill to remove Xin Sheng's sickle blade and stabbed Xin Sheng's waist.
"Um?"
The long sword did not cut into the enemy's body as Barbosa expected. The strange feel surprised Barbosa and subconsciously took a step back.
The two people passing by adjusted their posture and met again.
Xin Sheng touched the abdomen of Artemis' leather armor with his left hand, and Barbosa's long sword only left a slight trace on the leather armor.
Barbosa narrowed her eyes and tried to see the other person's face under her hood: "You are the mysterious killer mentioned by Pinte and Rejetti? Why can you kill someone with the Immortal Curse?"
‘So that’s it, it’s so cautious.’
Barbosa's inquiry made Xin Sheng understand why he subconsciously pulled out his weapon to block it.
Xin Sheng's eyes were on the Aztec gold coins hanging on Barbosa's chest.
The monkey on Barbosa's shoulder slipped down quietly and fled into the shadow of the cave to hide.
‘I want to be fooled by me?’
Xin Sheng knew that this monkey was very human and trained by Barbosa very well, and often helped him with some things in special circumstances.
In the open Hawkeye vision, the undead monkey hid behind a jewelry vase not far from the two, bent her hind legs to prepare for a sneak attack at any time.
Without answering Barbosa's words, Xin Sheng burst out at his best speed and quickly approached Barbosa like a afterimage.
As an old pirate who has been fighting at sea for many years, Barbosa has great achievements in swordsmanship.
The threat like a needle-punch made Barbosa subconsciously raise his sword and pose in a defensive posture.
"bite!"
Hepal's sword body rubbed against Barbosa's long sword, and the sharp sickle blade left a blood mark on his side.
Barbosa hurriedly took two steps back and set off again, touching the blood left on his face with his left hand.
"The warmth and pain that I haven't experienced for 10 years, indeed, your weapon has the ability to break the curse."
Xin Sheng's figure flashed and moved behind Barbosa.
Before he could turn around and parry, Barbosa rolled on the spot and avoided Xin Sheng's attack in a thrilling manner.
"It's good, but that's all."
The Hepal Scythe Blade was handed to his left hand, and the balanced attack and defense of Lilang's hand quickly swung his sword and continued to suppress Barbosa. His right hand unexpectedly popped up the magic blade.
"What?!"
The sudden deformed pocket crossbow changed Barbosa's face, but at this time he had no time to dodge.
"Swoosh!"
The pocket crossbow that pierced the chest made Barbosa's face twitch, and the neurotoxins that were integrated into the blood took effect faster, and he could not control his body in just a few seconds.
"What poison is this?"
Waving the long sword in his hand randomly, Barbosa anxiously tried to regain control of his body.
"Goodbye, Barbosa, the king of the Caspian Sea."
