Chapter 37 Tetuga
Norrington would not believe the undead or something, but looking at the person in front of him, he was a little uncertain again.
What happened during this period was so magical that he found that all the truths he had previously identified were knocked to pieces, so he could not conclude that the undead really did not exist.
"What kind of undead?"
Ethan winked at Jack on the side. The pirate captain was already swaying on the Black Pearl with excitement, and he reached out to touch him from time to time. He didn't want to pay attention to Ethan's eyes, but after thinking about it, he couldn't afford to offend this person, so he had to show Norrington what was going on in the situation.
The scene was terrifying. Whether it was Norrington, Elizabeth, and the numerous Royal Navy, they were all shocked by this group of immortal pirates. Norrington, who reacted the fastest, immediately realized that he could not really control these guys. They did not resist now because Ethan was here. When he returned on the interceptor, it was difficult to make sure that nothing would happen.
Looking back at Ethan, he knew that this mysterious young man had the means to solve this problem, because a guy who was about to rot into bones was lying beneath his feet.
The rotten skeleton was Hector Barbosa, the captain of the Black Pearl. He also knew from the pirates around him that it was Ethan who killed the undead pirate with one sword. It was this group of pirates who were scared and dared not resist.
“Is there no way to deal with it?”
"have."
"What's the solution?"
"Relieve their curse."
Hearing that the curse could be lifted, Brigadier General Norrington felt that there should be no trouble like this, but the fact is that Ethan did not have the time to care about this matter at all.
"If you want to lift their curse, you need to do it yourself." Ethan's only target was Jack Sparrow, to be precise, who got the Black Pearl. Only after getting his own ship could he better help Ethan find what he wanted.
As for Norrington? This trouble does not belong to him. Ethan has given the credit that Norrington wants to have been given to him. He doesn't care about the subsequent matters. Could it be that he still has to be responsible for saving the situation? It is already the limit to giving warnings out of previous friendly cooperation.
"What should I do?"
Norrington thought about it and let these pirates look like this. Although they can lock them with iron chains to avoid any trouble, they cannot guarantee that they will not make any mistakes over time. The best way is to completely remove the pirates from their immortal bodies, and it will not be so difficult to deal with if they become ordinary pirates.
The way to remove the curse is very simple. For Ethan, he doesn't even need to use Will Turner's blood. He only needs to use a small piece of gem residue to make a disposable prop, and then hand over the last gold coin to Norrington, telling him to smash the gem residue while returning the gold coin to its original place, and then he can lift the curse of the pirates.
"that's all?"
"that's all."
The conversation between the two people was not hidden, and everyone around them could hear it clearly. Considering that the pirates wanted to lift the curse, Norrington would not encounter any trouble before helping them complete all this.
Their trouble is that after the curse is lifted, the pirates will definitely not follow Norrington back to Port Royal and then accept the 'judgment that should be accepted'. They will use all means to save their lives. Norrington's test only began at that time.
Norrington understood this himself, but he would not continue to ask Ethan for help. If even a group of ordinary pirates could not deal with it, he would be too unqualified as a commander.
The pirates were quickly taken to the interceptor. After careful inspection, there were no pirates on the Black Pearl.
"Next we're going to separate."
Norrington looked at Jack not far away. He originally wanted to arrest Jack, but now it seems that this is something that he must not do.
It’s not impossible or not that you don’t want it, but that you absolutely cannot.
Everyone present knew the difference very well, and Jack knew it even more, so he was now swaying in front of Norrington with generous support. His exaggerated posture stimulated the nerves of the Royal Brigadier General at all times.
"So say goodbye, Mr. Ethan, I hope there is still a chance to meet again."
"Maybe it will."
Norrington really didn't want to continue seeing Jack, nor did he want to stay with Ethan. This mysterious young man brought him a lot of pressure, especially the angel-like image, which made him restless every minute and every second.
As the interceptor gradually faded away, Ethan took off the hood that had been buckled on his head. Although this thing could cover up his appearance and make him look even more mysterious, it would also affect his vision. Now, after taking it off, it felt like the whole world has become much wider.
The flame wings behind him slowly faded and turned back into a cloak. Ethan did not change out of his equipment, but continued to wear this outfit and looked at Jack Sparrow with a smile.
Jack, who had almost turned the Black Pearl around, finally stopped shaking around and came to Ethan calmly.
"I understand what you mean, but we need to go to Tetuga now."
"Recruiting sailors?"
"That's right." Jack nodded: "Otherwise, we three can't control a ship for a long time."
"Three people?" Ethan's eyelids twitched, feeling that this guy must have caused trouble for him.
Jack Sparrow is not a scheming person. Even if he agrees to deal, he will decide whether to fulfill his promise based on his own mood. Now that the strength gap between the two sides is too large, he will definitely want to "retain" Ethan.
So... Elizabeth, with Jack's instigation and help, successfully avoided the sight of Norrington and the Navy, and hid on the Black Pearl until now.
Looking at Elizabeth walking out of the cabin and full of curiosity, Ethan could only shake his head helplessly.
"This method has no meaning."
"At least it can make me feel a little more at ease."
People like Jack will not place all their hopes on Ethan's character. It is normal to bring insurance around. Ethan would probably make a similar choice.
However, this also means that the relationship between the two people has made no progress, it is a pure transaction. As Ethan showed his super strength, becoming friends was almost impossible. Now both of them tacitly maintained a certain distance. When the transaction was completely completed, Jack would probably disappear without a trace and never want to see him again.
Although this is a bit different from Ethan's original plan, the overall progress is still very smooth!
So Ethan was too lazy to correct anything. After gently scraping the back of Elizabeth's head, who was still unaware, Ethan changed back to her casual clothes and came to the deck of the Black Pearl, and worked with Jack to move the Black Pearl again.
Elizabeth, who was beaten for no reason, wanted to express her dissatisfaction, but after looking around, she seemed to realize something was wrong, so she endured it and obediently hit her next to her.
Elizabeth, who has always liked the story of pirates, knows very well what happened on the ship. In addition, as the daughter of the Governor of Port Royal, I have seen countless naval trainings. Even if I have not actually operated, my theoretical knowledge is rich enough and I am still fully qualified to be a helper. But my physical strength is too poor and I can't count on him for some strength.
Generally speaking, the Black Pearl can only operate on Ethan and Jack. Elizabeth can stand on the stern of the boat and hold the steer wheel, and then correct some courses according to Jack's command, and quickly absorb these practical knowledge - Elizabeth became One Piece in the original plot, and a rubber man who is determined to become One Piece still does not know when and when will he achieve this goal be.
The Black Pearl is very fast. Even if it is unable to exert all speed under the control of only two and a half people, it still takes only a short time to arrive at Tetujia.
This island is a paradise for pirates. All the facilities and supplies on the island are for serving the pirates who come here.
The Navy knew this place because of the terrain of Tetuga Island. No one's navy was willing to take huge risks and possible huge casualties to attack this place. This made the island always stay with a large number of pirates and people who wanted to become pirates. When pirates wanted to replenish their manpower, this island was always the first choice.
Jack Sparrow is extremely familiar with this place. Ethan also knows some things through the movie, but Elizabeth, who has always had many fantasies about pirates, feels that his dream has collapsed.
Dirty and chaos are the most accurate description of this place. The pirates here are not as attractive as the protagonists in the legendary story. They are more like a group of drunkards and lunatics. All kinds of ugly postures make Elizabeth just want to leave here as soon as possible.
"We're going to recruit a bunch of guys like this in this place...be our sailors?"
"Yes!" Jack was freely traveling through the crowd. No matter how complex the environment was, he could dodge it perfectly. If he couldn't dodge it, he would push it. These guys who were confused and confused had no idea what was going on.
Compared to Ethan, he was much more direct. He would push away whoever blocked the way. If anyone was dissatisfied and wanted to rush up, he would be knocked out with a punch.
This is the place. Not only did no one think Ethan did too much, but there were even cheers who watched the fun - and then the raised bottle hit the person next to him, causing a new battle.
