Chapter 134 Target: Black Pearl
At first, Ethan was worried that Jack was unwilling to be a traitor, but he finally looked at the lower limit of a pirate. Betrayal is a common occurrence for pirates, and there is no taboo about what means to use to achieve their goals.
In other words, as long as they can achieve their goals, they don't mind using any means, just attracting a group of navies is nothing at all.
Jack Sparrow seems to be a pirate with a bottom line, but his bottom line is definitely not here.
"Any questions?"
"Should be gone."
"Let's go then!" Ethan stood up, he wasn't going to stay in this place anymore, the smell really made him a little bit unbearable, he had the urge to change into his magic suit, put on the hood and put it on The air here is isolated from the outside.
Considering that I'm going to see Norrington tomorrow, I'll just take Jack back with me, so I don't have to spend time looking for him tomorrow. He could tell that Jack wasn't going to stay in this place honestly.
"I have a question before I go with you."
"what is the problem?"
"Is there alcohol where you live?"
"Have."
Jack took the last sip of wine and stood up happily.
"Let's go quickly."
These pirates are all alcoholics. The fundamental reason why many crew members drink alcohol in this era is that wine is easier to keep on board than water, but as a result, a large number of alcoholics have been cultivated. In the eyes of many people, these seafarers who have been at sea all year round have their biggest label as alcoholics.
One of the advantages of this kind of person is that it is easy to get rid of. Ethan doesn't even need to arrange a place to sleep for him. After giving him a bottle of wine, he will find a place to lie down and then go to sleep with the bottle in his arms. .
"..."
Looking at Captain Jack Sparrow, who had fallen asleep, Ethan was really worried that he would become like this after being at sea for a long time. He thought to himself, 'Wine must be controlled', and then lay down on the bed to rest. went.
When he woke up the next day, Jack was still asleep, and when he was finished washing and tidying up, Jack sat on the ground with a confused face, shaking the empty wine bottle in his hand.
"woke up?"
"Yeah!" He threw the wine bottle aside, ignoring the debris on the ground, Jack simply ripped off his clothes and put the hat on his head: "Go see that now... Norrington Commodore?"
"Yes."
Governor Swan had already sent someone to pick him up, and for Ethan's safety he had also sent a few navy soldiers to go with him. What's more interesting was that there were two acquaintances among them - the two who stopped Jack Swan at the dock. Palo and his two guys.
"meet again."
"Yes, nice to see you again, sir!"
This time the two soldiers did not dare to question Ethan's identity. This was a guest of their immediate boss, Brigadier General Norrington, but he didn't understand how he got mixed up with that weird guy. Could it be that these big men have such weird tastes? ?
Not daring to show any abnormality on their faces, and after a few words in their hearts, the two soldiers pretended to be dumb, just hoping that nothing would go wrong along the way, and praying that this person who didn’t know what was going on would ignore them as air. out, otherwise they will both be out of luck.
Ethan is too lazy to pay attention to the two tricks now. He is wondering if there will be any accident in the meeting with Norrington, will Jack suddenly get windy and cause trouble, and what should he do if there is an accident?
After thinking about it in his head for a long time, after seeing Norrington, he found that his worries were unnecessary.
Whether it is Norrington or Jack, both of them have clear goals, and neither of them are impulsive characters. Even if there is some dissatisfaction in their hearts, they will not show it at this time.
So there was no surprise in dealing with the Black Pearl this time. Commodore Norrington asked some questions about the Black Pearl after confirming Jack Sparrow's pirate identity. The only thing that made Brigadier General Norrington dissatisfied was that the way to find the Black Pearl was different from what he had speculated before. This pirate named Jack Sparrow did not know the habits of the Black Pearl, but only said that he had special means to do it. track.
With Norrington's character, he wouldn't rush into such an operation when he couldn't be sure whether the method was effective. But this time was a bit special, so after hesitating for a while, I finally nodded and agreed.
"Considering the specific situation, the Interceptor will be dispatched this time, and the Dreadnought will stay at Port Royal. Immediately start loading materials and mobilizing soldiers, and will officially set off in the morning three days later." Norrington looked at Ethan: "I will also do this operation. Together, do you have any questions?"
Ethan certainly didn't have any problems, dispatching the Interceptor was almost the perfect situation. Although the Interceptor was far inferior to the Dreadnought in firepower, it was unable to suppress the Black Pearl's firepower even in a head-on conflict. But he didn't need to engage in a gun battle with the Black Pearl, and the speed of the Interceptor would greatly reduce the time at sea.
"no problem."
The plan was settled like this, and Norrington was busy with the rest of the matter, and the specific military operation command, no one present had compared this orthodox brigadier admiral.
The only trouble, perhaps, is that Governor Swan is complaining to Ethan that he shouldn't tell his daughter Elizabeth, who is always talking about taking part in this operation with him now.
"She won't bother you again when we leave Port Royal."
"Hopefully."
Although Elizabeth is very ladylike most of the time, as her father, Governor Swan certainly knows what kind of character his daughter is, and he always feels that this matter will not end so easily.
Sure enough, not long after watching the Intercept leave Port Royal on the dock, his housekeeper reported to him a very headache: Elizabeth left him a letter telling him that she was going to see See how the valiant Royal Navy captured ruthless pirates.
Looking at the letter in his hand, Governor Swan was angry and speechless. Even if he wanted to chase it now, it was too late, because it was the fastest warship in Port Royal. What did he send to chase it? I can only hope that Brigadier General Norrington and Ethan can take good care of their daughter.
On the Interceptor, Ethan discovered Elizabeth just after going to sea. Although she concealed herself very well (thinking), in the eyes of Ethan, a person who is not blind, there are still flaws.
"How did you get in?"
Are Royal Navy warships so easy to get in? He now feels that the pirates in the Caribbean Sea are so rampant, is it because the navy is too wasteful?
"I am the Governor's daughter."
Well, the Governor's daughter is so domineering, even if it is not the Governor himself, no soldier dares to offend her, not to mention that many of the naval soldiers in Port Royal know what Commodore Norrington thinks of Elizabeth, and they all think that Elizabeth is a Come to Norrington.
In addition, a lot of content in this operation is unclear, and there is no explanation for who it is to deal with. When Elizabeth appears again, some people suspect that this voyage is actually a play, which makes Elizabeth successfully mix up.
But when he left Port Royal and ensured that the news would not be leaked, Norrington and his men stated that the attack was to deal with the Black Pearl, and Elizabeth had successfully gotten on board—her appearance made Norrington. Lington also had a headache and didn't know how to deal with it.
"Turn around and send her back."
Ethan is still wasting this time, but Norrington is not very happy, because it means that this operation will be leaked, and the ghost knows whether the pirates will hide after learning the news-he is not very happy about this time. Action is very important, and I don't want to run around in vain.
"Empty my captain's room for her, and send someone to follow me at ordinary times."
Life on board is not that comfortable, there are many inconveniences - not allowing women on board is not just superstition, there are indeed many objective problems that cannot be solved, especially in this day and age.
Seeing Norrington's decision, Ethan naturally wouldn't have to oppose him. Anyway, he didn't care who was on the boat and who was missing, as long as Jack Sparrow was here and the boat could It was enough to successfully send him to the Black Pearl.
Back on the deck, Ethan saw Captain Jack standing on the bow of the ship, using a pointer to locate the Black Pearl.
Coming to his side, Ethan glanced at the magical pointer, which made Jack quickly put away the things. He was worried that Ethan would miss his treasure.
Then he looked at Ethan carefully: "You are very used to the life on the boat." Ethan just walked a few times on the boat, and Jack, an old fritter, could see some details of him: "Like a long-term Sailors at sea."
"Can you see it?"
"Yes, you don't have the kind of tenderness that a rookie has on you."
Ethan smiled very happily. Did he get the confirmation of the old captain?
"If you praise me like this, I will have the urge to pull you on board."
"Ship?" Jack is particularly sensitive to ships: "Do you have your own ship? What kind of ship is it?"
"A large warship with three decks, called the Goddess of Dawn." Ethan simply reported some rough data about his own ship, but these were enough for the old captain to make up the specific outline of a ship.
Some parameters of the Dawn Goddess made him misunderstand directly: "You are also an officer of the Royal Navy?"
Ethan shook his head: "It's my personal belongings, but unfortunately I can't bring them."
It was a pity for Jack too, and he wanted to see every detail of the ship with his own eyes. But in comparison, he now wants to get his ship back.
Maybe it was the topic of the boat that made him firm up his mind, Jack immediately took out the pointer, and the previously wobbly pointer finally locked in a direction.
