Chapter 204 2 I Went Out to Buy a Pack of Cigarettes and Nine Out of Ten People I Met Told Me that a Disaster Was About to Happen [915]

Chapter 204 2. When I went out to buy a pack of cigarettes, nine out of ten people I met told me that a disaster was coming - [915]

(Additional update for the ‘Humen Smoke’ brothers)

"Fuck! Mason! You should have told me that the target of this operation was a god! Instead of waiting until we were already on the boat!"

On the Black Pearl sailing from Turtle Island to the North American continent, Zha Kang, who had just climbed out of the biological cabin, had not had time to experience the "new version" of himself when he was stunned by a piece of bad news.

At this time, he was walking around in the captain's cabin of the Black Pearl, which had been released from the collection of glass bottles into the sea, with a irritated look on his face, holding a burning cigarette in his mouth and cursing:

"Oh my god, that's a god! Although according to Jack's words, she sounds like a foolish primitive god whose power is only to control the ocean and storms, but she is still not an ordinary life.

From the fact that she can curse a ship and turn it into a ghost ship sailing between life and death, we know that that guy might have the priesthood of death!

Do you know what this means? "

"Does this mean we'll burp when we see her?"

Captain Jack leaned against the window, reminiscing about the long-lost ocean journey, grabbing a bottle of rum and pouring it into his mouth amidst the slightly fishy flavor of the sea, and said in a long voice:

"Come on, man, my dear John, Colypso is not as powerful as you think. She was sealed by Barbossa's bastards through trickery, and was later released free by the Pirate Kings.

During the time when she transformed into a witch and hid in the swamps of Haiti, I had some intimate moments with her. Anyway, I promise, she is not as dangerous as you think.

If you really count, I think the cleaners we dealt with on Old Spider's side were more troublesome than her, of course, provided that she couldn't stay at the sea.

That's her territory. "

"Shut up, Jack, you know nothing about these supernatural matters except hearsay and parroting!"

Zha Kang snorted angrily, then turned to look at the others.

Kite Man is currently flying around with Falcon's small flight pack for reconnaissance. This is his "home outfit". He can't always carry the heavy-duty flying wings captured from the Vulture, right?

It's handsome, but it consumes too much fuel.

That thing is a "combat suit", and it needs to be modified by the boss to have firepower.

As for Er Tong, who was sitting next to him with an indifferent expression, playing with the Alice sword in his hand, this guy who looked calm on the outside but was a slut on the inside had already put on his own Isu Pioneer Armor.

This is as sexy as a stripper covered in sequins.

Barbara has been fine-tuning the computer on her wrist to establish a link with the drone army hidden in the cabin. From time to time, the pupil of her left eye will shine with blue light spots, which looks very strange.

In this scene, it was as if no one except Zha Kang himself had any idea of ​​the danger of this operation.

This makes the black magician very desperate.

Hello! Where does your confidence come from? I'm obviously the one who was strengthened, right?

He blew out a smoke ring and looked at Mason, who was holding a book of stories circulated among pirates and reading about the legend of Poseidon. He calmed down and said in a thicker voice:

"Please tell me, have you prepared some things in advance that can restrain divinity?"

"Huh? What is that you are talking about?"

Mason raised his head and asked very sincerely.

He obviously hasn't told Zha Kang about Alice's sword fight yet, and intends to use it as a joke.

The black magician slapped himself in the face and said desperately:

"I've confirmed it, we're dead. You really took this life-threatening job without knowing anything. This is not far from Turtle Island. Stop the boat and drop anchor!"

I have to swim back so you don't get blood all over me when you get killed. "

"Okay, John, I'm kidding you."

Mason put down the storybook in his hand which was almost full of exaggerated rumors. He stretched his neck and said:

"Mr. Hunter has said everything that needs to be said. Let us accurately describe that our mission is not to face an unknown sea god alone, but to most likely seize food from the liquidators.

Do you understand what I said? "

The captain stood up and explained the mission process in detail. He emphasized:

"Mr. Hunter said that the Cleaners or others should not be allowed to obtain the divinity of Colypso under any circumstances. She also said that she could not go into more details on this aspect, so I suspect it may have something to do with the curse of the Society of Stars.

The best situation now is that when the liquidators are hunting the Poseidon, we find an opportunity to sneak in, grab a head and run away.

As for restraining divinity.

She said that using the knife she gave us to cut into Poseidon's heart would solve any problem. I don't quite understand the principle. But I guess that knife should help you relieve the panic in your heart. "

"This is not a good thing!"

Zha Kang's mood improved a little, but only a little.

As a spellcaster whose primary purpose is self-protection under any circumstances, being cowardly is already a philosophy that goes deep into Zha Kang's bones.

He complained nonstop about Mason dragging him to die again, while using various fancy phrases to greet Mason's family cordially.

But it's on the way now.

Even if he doesn't want to take the risk, he can't really jump into the sea and swim back to Turtle Island, right?

That's too embarrassing.

"I just don't know how much land our pirate coalition has recovered in the past half a month?"

Mason walked to the window, chatted with Captain Jack and said:

"How do you feel when you see your past friends becoming pirate kings one by one? If you hadn't followed me before, maybe you could have your own pirate kingdom, Jack.

Don’t you have a little bit of regret and yearning? "

"There's a fart."

Captain Jack leaned there coolly, drinking rum while drunkenly saying:

"Have I ever told you about when I was a kid?"

Mason shook his head and heard Captain Jack say with a sense of nostalgia:

“I grew up in Madagascar as a child.

Yes, in the pirate utopia established by my father and his brothers, they occupied a natural harbor and a large area of ​​land, and gathered pirates from all over the world to establish a pirate kingdom.

One of his brothers was once the son-in-law of a Mughal princess. He had a real army under his command to ensure long-term peace and order there, and the pirates governed it with a structure similar to the Pirate King's Council.

Chaotic, noisy, evil yet vibrant.

This was all I knew about my hometown when I was a child, but when I grew older, I saw the dirty and indulgent truth inside the seemingly cheerful life.

My father and several of his brothers have been fighting openly and secretly for power, prestige or other damn things. The so-called pirate utopia is just a large turtle island.

Really boring. "

Jack snorted, shook the precious compass in his hand, and said:

"So when I was twelve I left there and joined the East India Company and traveled up and down the Indian Ocean, preferring to be on my ship than to go home.

Mason, pirates cannot govern the country like kings and nobles.

We lack patience, lofty vision and ideals. The truth behind the so-called pursuit of freedom and disobedience to control is that we are all a group of Lutherans who cannot survive in a normal society.

What big things can you expect a group of losers who can't even be normal people to accomplish?

I dare to predict that even if Barbossa and the others really establish a kingdom on the mainland, it will only last for five years and then fall apart. It is just a stupid thing to have fun and die.

Why should I be envious?

Even now, when I return to this familiar sea, the panic from the bottom of my heart has not diminished, even after you have given the world a zombie vaccine. "

He glanced at Mason, opened the compass in his hand between the two, and said to it:

"Show me my only chance of survival, baby."

His words trailed off.

The red pointer on the delicate compass pointed to Mason without any deviation.

"Colypso gave this to me."

Jack put away the compass and said to Mason:

"It is said that it is contaminated with the divinity of Poseidon and is the most precious treasure of this sea, but it is also telling me that if I want to survive, I have to leave here. Look, Mason, our greatest danger does not come from hunting Colypso.

impact

Didn’t you say that the third impact is coming soon? "

"Um."

Mason took out the hourglass Mr. Hunter gave him from his bag. Less than one-tenth of the gravel above it was left, and it was still leaking as time went by.

Minute by minute, people can't help but imagine what will happen after the quicksand has completely leaked out.

"About five to six days."

Mason looked at the small hourglass in his hand and said:

"We have to go back to Gotham before that moment comes. It is said that the possibility of surviving the impact by hiding in our own base world will be higher."

"Wow"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of huge waves crashed outside the cabin.

The Black Pearl, which was running rapidly on the sea along with the ocean currents and sea breeze, seemed to be shaken by an invisible hand, making everyone unsteady for a while.

Then a cold breath penetrated into the captain's cabin along with the sea breeze, and the hatch was quickly pushed open.

Carrying a double-barreled shotgun and a toad goggles, wearing colorful beach shorts and flip-flops but paired with a strange Isu battle helmet, first mate Gibb looked as relaxed as if he was home for the New Year. Mr. Si rushed in and shouted:

"Dutchman! Jack! That damn ghost ship is below us! It's going to capsize us!"

"No, don't be nervous."

Mason and Captain Jack looked at each other and said:

"It's here to 'say hello', maybe it just wants to say hello to 'old friends'. Jack, do you want to come with me to meet Will?"

I guess your old friend also has something to say to you, such as asking you to help take care of his wife and children.

The relationship between the three of you is so complicated, and the only person he can trust is you. "

"Hey, isn't he afraid that I will put a hat on him?"

Captain Jack smiled very obscenely, drank the rum in his hand in one gulp, and said with a grin:

"I get along with Elizabeth day and night now. She is still my assistant manager. She wears black silk high heels to work every day and so on. As long as I want, there are many opportunities to unspoken rules for her.

Single moms and stuff are the best. "

"I specially asked someone to teach you how to use a computer and surf the Internet to familiarize you with the new world instead of letting you watch those terrible and obscene things. Jack, can you be normal?"

Mason rolled his eyes, glanced at Zha Kang, and said:

"Want to go together?"

"No, I have no interest in setting foot on an unlucky ghost ship. The consequences of being contaminated by the death curse will definitely be very troublesome."

The black magician decisively refused, took out another grimoire, opened it in his hand, waved his hand and said:

"Get out of here, get out of here, don't disturb this mage from experiencing new powers and understanding new magic."

Ergong and Barbara were not interested in setting foot on a rusted ghost ship, so in the end Jack and Mason got off the boat.

Behind them, a group of non-mainstream pirate crew members dressed in strange and weird costumes watched worriedly as they sailed towards the splashing whirlpool of water.

As they approached the whirlpool, the ghost ship Flying Dutchman on the bottom of the sea quickly rose to the surface, and the eerie and ferocious broken hull rose up to the eyes of the two amid the rolling splashes of sea water.

On the deck where seaweed and various deep-sea creatures still remained, in addition to the already abnormal Captain Will Turner, there was also a guy who made Jack's face change slightly.

His dad!

The guardian of the Pirate Code, an undead ghost who is suspected to have become a supernatural conceptual entity, Edward Teague Sr.

After talking to Mason last time, he said that Will Turner was a force that could be fought for. This old guy's action efficiency was quite fast. It only took more than half a month to get on the line with the ghost ship.

And judging from the way he and Will talked in low voices, it seemed that they had reached some kind of cooperation agreement.

"Shua"

As the boat approached the ghost ship, a strange rope ladder made of white bones was thrown from the side of the ship. It also carried the coldness from the deep sea. Mason and Jack climbed up the deck covered with barnacles and rust marks one after another.

It's like stepping into a moving cemetery.

The chaotic and cursed crew members around them who were about to lose their minds smelled the "fragrance" of the living.

They murmured about the mellow fragrance of flesh and blood, grabbed various weapons and gathered together, looking at them with penetrating eyes as if they were standing among a group of resentful spirits.

Mason snorted and grasped the handle of the flintlock gun at his waist.

Jack didn't care at all. This guy even spread his hands to hug Will Turner, who was already half fish and half human in front of him. This guy said maliciously:

"Elizabeth asked me to say hello to you. Will, your wife is awesome, wonderful in all situations. By the way, what do you think about the fact that your son may want to call me daddy in the future?"

"No idea. If little Henry really calls you father, maybe you can take better care of him?"

An indistinct voice came from Will's mouth that had been alienated to the point of being unable to speak. The ghost captain turned around and roared like a wild beast, asking his crew to wake up and return to the cabin.

Then he limped up to Mason and stared at him condescendingly, his eyes cold and his tone penetrating.

He said:

"I warned you, don't come back if you leave! Why? Mason, do you like to cruise around in a dying world so much? Do you plan to bury us in person?

Or should I choose a good cemetery for myself? "

"It's just a group of invaders who want to enter your world to hunt your Poseidon."

Mason did not hide anything and said truthfully:

"My superiors asked me to stop this process, and if anything goes wrong, I will do my best to kill Colypso before they do. So, this time is business, and I don't want to come but I have to."

As he spoke, Mason looked at Old Teague, who was talking to his son, and gave the pirate codenamed "Old J" a look, who nodded inaudibly.

Since he is already a member of the Quint Society, Mason's mission is naturally his mission.

"Your superiors sent you to die."

Will Turner said in a bad tone:

“There are only five days left, no, less than five days, the end is approaching, every drop of sea water is telling the cry before destruction, and the entire sea is changing.

You couldn't have come at a worse time, Mason Cooper, on the eve of destruction.

You seem confident, but you don't know if you will make it back alive, but as for the intruders you mentioned...well, maybe we can cooperate on this matter. "

"cooperate?"

Mason raised his eyebrows, showed an interested expression, and said:

"Elaborate."

"follow me!"

Will Turner, who had been cursed into a deep-sea creature for most of his body, limped toward his captain's cabin. Mason followed him through the ship, which was as gloomy as a tomb and made people feel uncomfortable all over.

On the deck behind them, Jack bit off the cork of a bottle of wine, took a sip, and handed the bottle to his father. Old Teague laughed and toasted with his son.

After a moment, he asked:

"So, Jack, how is life in the new world? Looking at your radiant face, you seem to have found a new friend."

"It's okay, so-so."

The drunken Captain Jack grinned and told his father everything that had happened in the past period. Old Teague raised his eyebrows after hearing their story about the liquidators in another world.

He said:

"Well, it seems that Team K is really suitable for your temperament, which is afraid of chaos in the world. But Jack, your heart is still in this sea, I can feel it.

Even if you are enjoying yourself in another world, you still can't let go of this ocean.

This may not be such a bad thing. "

The old pirate who founded the first pirate kingdom walked to the side of the ship and looked at the endless sea behind him. After drinking a whole bottle of rum, he turned back and said to his son:

"Bury it with nostalgia, Jack.

Witness the last day of your hometown with your own eyes, and then restart your journey with a surviving mentality. I believe that from now on you will become a person with faith.

Just like your captain.

You will join your new friends in a greater and more dangerous cause.

For the past, present and future, Jack.

Raise your glass."
