Chapter 196 The Pirate Conference in Shipwreck BayShipwreck Bay is an island with a very special geographical structure, surrounded by sheer cliffs and precipitous rock faces , there is only a narrow gap to enter and exit the bay.
The special geographical environment makes it a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. With natural defense barriers, pirates can gather here for a lifetime when they have enough food.
But considering their urine, a lifetime is too long, a quilt is very likely!
Shipwreck Bay was not called this name in the early years. It was discovered by pirates by accident and accumulated with shipwrecks. After hundreds of years, an island was transformed into an island. Later, the Pirates Guild named this place as Shipwreck Bay, and it became an island. Holy Land in the hearts of all pirates.
All pirates who come here must abide by the pirate code. Personal vendettas are strictly prohibited here. If you want to duel, you can go outside Shipwreck Bay, and no one cares if you fight.
Barbossa, Jack, and Sao Feng moored the boat and went straight to the pirate guild hall, where the meeting was held.
In order to watch the fun, Luo Su went to the meeting with Sao Feng, along with Elizabeth and Turner, these two people had murdered their father with Lord Beckett, and the other wanted to rescue the The enslaved father aboard the Flying Dutchman was very concerned about the outcome of the meeting.
As soon as they entered the hall, only a few people realized that they were late, and the other pirate kings had already arrived.
The thick-skinned old Barbossa ignored the fire-breathing eyes of the pirates, cleared his throat and said, "As the convener of the meeting, I, Captain Hector Barbossa, announce the fourth time The pirate conference is officially opened."
The conference began, and the pirate kings took their seats one after another. The sacred pirate conference cannot be profaned.
"Captains, in order to prove your identity and power, please show the ancient Spanish Silver Coin!"
Said to be the Spanish Silver Coin, but it is actually a pile of scrap metal , such as the wooden eyeball of Barbossa, the Caspian pirate king. The most valuable piece of 'Ancient Silver Coin' comes from Sao Feng, a well-crafted jade stone, tied with a silk pendant from ancient Old Dongfang, a crane in a flock of chickens among a group of hillbillies, with a very high style.
These rubbish are forced by the times. When Calypso acted wilfully on the sea, the nine pirate kings were so poor that they could not eat enough to eat, and there was no spare money to buy Silver Coin.
As for why the 'Silver Coin' in Sao Feng's hands is extremely valuable, it can only be said that the Chinese are good-natured, and the token must be more high-end when tightening the belt.
As the time was running out, Barbossa, as the host of the meeting, casually chatted a few words, and then began to cut to the topic of the meeting, telling about the East India Company's wild ambitions, which posed a fatal threat to pirates.
The East India Company plotted the sea, and could not tolerate pirates who were used to freedom. They chased and blocked them all over the world, chasing the pirates to flee like mice crossing the street.
Whether it is money or human resources, the pirates together are not as good as the East India Company.
The sea is getting harder and harder, and more than half of the pirates have abandoned their ships and turned into bandits!
Since the birth of a career full of money, pirates have never been so miserable, and the limelight has intensified.
The last sentence was not spoken by Barbossa. It is possible to replace it with Sao Feng, but in order to save the number of words, I translated his words into classical Chinese, which is probably what he meant.
After listening to Barbossa's brief narration, the pirate kings fell silent. They all understood this truth, otherwise they would not have come to the meeting.
The East India Company has already cleaned up most of the pirates, so it's time to take action against these pirate kings. Now that the nine pirate kings are gathered together, if they can't come up with a charter to break the situation, the pirate guild will completely decline. Right and wrong at sea will also have nothing to do with pirates.
"Everyone, I know that many people still have a fluke mentality, thinking that they can escape this catastrophe by hiding in Tibet." Barbossa looked around the crowd, and his tone became cold: "But unfortunately, disaster swept across. Come here, we can dodge once but not the second time, we can only face it.”
“But the British Imperial Family Navy is behind the East India Company, and we can’t win against them...”
In the pirate group, someone whispered, this is the truth, no matter how powerful the pirates are, it is impossible to defeat a huge empire, especially this empire also has the most powerful fleet at sea.
"We can hide in Shipwreck Cove, it's an unbreakable fortress, and the East India Company can't get in!"
"Then we will lose our freedom, and without freedom, are we still pirates? ?"
"Life and freedom, what's wrong with choosing life?"
Several pirate kings quarreled with each other. Raise the bar and lift the bar.
Yes, they just don't like others!
"Captains, please listen to me."
Barbossa took off his shoes and knocked on the table, and after everyone stopped arguing, he continued: "Captains, I call Everyone came here because I came up with a solution to the predicament."
The pirates all shut up when they heard the words, and concentrated on listening to Barbossa's advice. Powerless to stop but unwilling to die. They are the pirate kings, and the East India Company will never let them go, and they will die in the end. So, don't look like they don't care on the surface, they are actually more anxious than anyone else.
Barbossa raised a finger: "There is one person who can help us change this situation and restore the sea to the old days of pirates."
"Who?"
"King George II of Great Britain!?"
Feeling everyone's eyes on him, Barbosa mysterious smile: "Ocean Goddess, Calypso!"
When the voice fell, the hall was silent for a while, and then the pot exploded suddenly. They calculated everything and didn't expect that Barbossa would use Calypso, the pirate's mortal enemy, as a savior.
"This is ridiculous!"
"Calypso was sealed by the first generation of pirate kings, although that has little to do with us, but she is a Goddess after all, and Goddess is careful , I don't think she'd mind venting her flame hair on us."
"Barbossa, you think of her, don't you know how cruel she is?"
There are those who reject this proposal, and naturally there are those who agree. Of course, these people also responded with a pessimistic and negative attitude. Anyway, if you can't beat the East India Company, you will die sooner or later. It's better to let Calypso out and be buried with the East India Company.
In case Goddess is not as brutal as rumored, maybe they can still get some rewards, such as gold coins sunk to the bottom of the sea, or treasures on uninhabited islands.
"Don't be silly, you are daydreaming, once Calypso is released, the first person she will kill will be us."
"This debt is the first generation of pirates What the kings did has nothing to do with us!"
"Calypso doesn't think like this, she has no reason to help me deal with the East India Company."
"How will you know if you don't try it? ?"
"You will die if you try, you stupid pig!"
"You dare to call me a stupid pig, are you provoking me?"
"That's right!"
"..."
There was a quarrel in the hall, and it quickly evolved from a quarrel to a full-fledged martial arts. ... dance, no flying, at least not yet.
The chaotic hall is very similar to the court of the same period. The battle situation is very tragic, with quarrels, curses, fists and feet.
"Unbelievable, they are really crazy..." Elizabeth was stunned. Pirates are indeed a vulgar endorsement, but this meeting, can you be more serious.
Barbossa was used to it, and replied: "Study hard, the politics class begins."
"Ha, politics is fighting?"
" It's really called war, they're fighting for their own benefit!"
The deep meaning of Barbossa's words is a summary of many years of life experience, Elizabeth is too young to rely on the ' in her name alone' It was difficult for Shabei to understand, and she continued to watch in a stunned manner.
The scene was out of control for a time, and Barbosa did not stop it. Instead of trying to stop the quarrel, it would be better to wait for them to stop when they were tired of arguing.
The pirate kings are all human beings. When they came to the meeting, they all knew that a pirate Great Emperor would be elected this time. They disagreed with each other, and neither of them wanted to listen to others. Now the quarrel is for the sake of Show your martial power and gain enough prestige to vote later.
The first two pirate conferences failed to elect the pirate king. The situation was similar to the present, and they did not like each other. It was difficult to find a person who could convince everyone.
It's impossible to say no, Luo Su saw a pirate in the corner of the hall, dressed in a gorgeous red captain's suit, smoky makeup, braided beard, made from the same mold as Jack , playing the wooden guitar like a rock star.
Jack's father, retired pirate king, is now the Legendary pirate in charge of the pirate code - Teague Sparrow!
On this sea, there really needs to be someone who can make Jack who escaped to be honest, it can only be him.
Luo Su sensed the aura of magic in him, and intuitively told him that this old pirate playing guitar was stronger than Davy Jones.
Luo Su secretly recalled that Teague had very few appearances in the original book, and was a very mysterious character who had a very high prestige among pirates.
As expected, the pirates quarrel, and one of them offends the Pirate Code, claiming that it was a joke, only to be shot by Teague, and none of his pirate king captains fart.
"Codex Supreme!"
A group of pirate kings sat down silently, all eyes focused on Barbossa, waiting for him to continue the meeting.
Barbossa pursed his lips. Teague's appearance put him under great pressure. He once robbed Jack's boat, for fear that I would seek revenge for his son.
"Now, according to the code, start voting for the pirate Great Emperor, and he will decide whether to liberate the sealed Calypso!" Formal, fair, just and open!
