Chapter 216 The King and His Soldiers
On the day Jack was expelled from the East India Company for privately releasing his slaves, Beckett left a p-mark on Jack's wrist, deposing him to a pirate forever.
But at the same time, Jack did not give in and responded with his color, leaving an indelible mark on Beckett.
Except for the two parties involved, no one knows where Beckett's mark is.
Since then, Beckett has been trying to get Jack back the account, arresting him and working for himself again until he dies.
William III transferred Beckett to the Caribbean, on the one hand, to allow the British East India Company to enter the Caribbean to expand Britain's interests.
On the other hand, it was also to allow him to clean up the overly rampant pirates and ensure the safety of British ships on the route.
After Beckett arrived at Port Royal, he added fuel to the fire and amplified William III's intention. He not only captured and executed pirates, but also executed all those who had contact with pirates.
Beckett's purpose is not simple. He did this to force out of the Pirate Guild, to wipe out the pirate lords who were wandering around the world at once, and to add a touch of inspiration to his credit book.
The descendants of nobles like Kallert Beckett and Williams Cavendish, who are not the eldest sons, can only provide some help to their careers, and what kind of achievements they can achieve in the end depends on their own hard work.
Beckett was obviously not satisfied with the position of director of East India Company, and he wanted to take this opportunity to go further.
With the great contribution of extermination of the pirates of the Seven Seas, William III should have granted him a true noble status, rather than a lord who is affiliated with the family name.
Beckett has received news from the UK in recent times.
The seriously ill and bedridden Queen Mary II finally returned from recovery.
Beckett initially did not know how Mary II was healed, and the news came with a reward from William III.
Williams J. Cavendish was awarded the title of hereditary baron for his contribution to the rescue of Mary II and was promoted to Major of the Royal Navy.
It is said that William III is in a good mood and will retain a reward and wait for another hero to return to Britain before announcing it.
The British aristocratic circle was so big, and the descendants of various major families basically knew each other.
Williams and Carlett Beckett have known each other for many years and have a lot of knowledge about each other's situation.
Williams' sudden ban made Beckett understand.
The extremely secret mission he and Xin Sheng had previously carried out across the ocean to the Caribbean should be related to the healing of Mary II.
Beckett could not have no idea if he had an acquaintance of similar origins first and truly stepped into the threshold of aristocracy.
He planned to speed up the progress of forcing the pirates to resist together and further increase the efforts to hunt down pirates.
When news of Jack's whereabouts were sent by Will Turner, neat singing suddenly came from the square of Port Royal.
“……the king and his men,stole the queen from her bed,and bound her in her bones.”
Most people don’t understand the deep meaning of the lyrics of this song, and Beckett is one of them.
Of course, he doesn't need to understand, he just needs to know what effect this song can have.
"Ah~ I finally started singing."
Beckett, who was already in a happy mood, no longer concealed the smile on his face.
"Let's start, the final performance of the Pirates Guild."
...
In the Captain's Office of the Jackdaw, just after exercising through intense exercise, Angelica lay on Xin Sheng's chest covered in sweat.
Xin Sheng, who was in a relaxed mood, looked at Baliyal in his hand, showed a smile on his face as he succeeded in his plan, and hummed the pirate's raising flag song casually.
"Xin, what exactly does the lyrics of this song mean?"
Angelica asked in confusion: "The king and his soldiers took the queen and sealed her in their flesh?"
"The lyrics of this passage are completely logical."
“Haha~”
Xin Sheng bounced the Baliyal silver coins high: "The lyrics of the first half of this song are metaphors, and the king and queen mentioned here refer to two people."
“To be precise, it’s a man and a god, and those ‘soldiers’ are the ones who wrote this song.”
Xin Shenglirica's long brown hair was soaked in sweat: "'Soldier' is a member of the first Pirate Guild, and the Queen is the god sealed in the human body. As for the king... you just met him not long ago."
Angelica looked up in shock: "David Jones? So, the rumor about the goddess of ocean Calypso..."
“It’s all true.”
"Ba~"
After catching the falling Euryal silver coins, Xin Sheng blew gently at it and put the silver coins to Angelica's ear.
"Listen, can you hear a buzzing sound?"
Angelica nodded in surprise: "Really."
Xin Sheng explained: "This is a special arrangement that the first Pirate Guild asked the 'king' to make. Once this song is sung on a large scale, it means that the pirates are facing a crisis of destruction and must unite."
Angelica was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "That's why you asked Jack to summon the Pirate Lord. Have you known this song long ago that it will be sung?"
Xin Sheng shrugged: "It's only a matter of time before Beckett captures and executes pirates."
"It's time to send Will and Old Bill to the nearest tomorrow and let them return to Port Royal on a merchant ship."
"besides……"
Xin Sheng took out a plain-looking compass from the bedside table, and a gloomy smile appeared on his face that made Angelica a little scared.
"Carret Beckett, what is what you want most?"
...
Shipwreck Bay is the headquarters of the Pirates Guild, and only nine pirate lords know the specific location of this secret bay.
The Jackdaw drove the platform deck, Xin Sheng held the rudder in one hand and held the compass of desire borrowed from Jack in the other hand.
At this time, the compass was wandering around, indicating that Xin Sheng wanted a lot of things, but none of them could meet the most wanted standards.
Concentrate your mind and eliminate unnecessary thoughts by emptying your brain. Only the option of finding Edward Teague.
"Click!"
This time the compass finally specified the direction, and the wooden bird beak in Angelica's hand also turned in the same direction at the same time.
"I finally found you, Shipwreck Bay."
"Ba~"
Close the compass and Xin Sheng threw it to the shore with force.
"Will, catch it!"
Will, who had just got off the boat, raised his hand and grabbed the compass flying in front of him. Xin Sheng gave him a thumbs up and shouted: "Go, send it to the target's hand, see you in the wreckage bay!"
"Clang!"
Through the control of the magic sword, the sails of Jackdaw and Queen Anne's Revenge automatically rose and quickly entered full speed under the guidance of wind.
Xin Sheng grabbed the rudder and adjusted the direction, followed the wooden bird's guidance to his destination.
Jack and David Jones both left the Caribbean under Xin Sheng's commission, and Muniao finally selected a legendary pirate who had already hidden merits and fame.
