Outlander’s Journey

"You have what Jack doesn't have, that is ambition and power."

Barbossa lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head as much as possible to show his obedience: "My captain, please tell your loyal mate of your name. I will take care of all the chores on the ship for you so that you can concentrate on A big person like you needs to focus on a big cause."

"... Heather, just call me Heather."

Heather does not shy away from telling his name. [Real name] This kind of statement is not life-threatening on this slightly modified earth, and it is protected by the fire of'outsiders'. Heather doubts the average real name. Will the spell-like work on you?

"My lord, your first officer Hector Barbosa is here to serve you at any time." Barbosa would even be willing to bow to salute if his chest had not been penetrated by absolute kingship and nailed to the wall.

Having said that, Heather couldn't let him go.

Of course, it's definitely not because I'm killing Barbosa now, that pair is big and white...Bah, the lovely Miss Catalina can't come to the world.

The point is that if Barbosa did not pass the position of the Pirate King of the Caspian Sea to others and died like this, Heather was not sure whether his mission could be completed.

After all, [Pirate King] needs to be recognized by the seven pirate kings at the pirate conference.

Click, Heather drew out the golden cross sword, Barbossa collapsed on the ground, blood constantly flowing in his chest, like a living person.

This is not surprising, these cursed undead will bleed when they are not illuminated by the moonlight, but just like Kyōka Suigetsu, no amount of blood will make themselves die. Once they are illuminated by the moonlight, their injuries will be restored.

Considering that the curse rule of Aztec gold coins is [must be repaid with blood], the blood of these undead is probably part of the curse rule.

Barbossa staggered into the moonlight, and when he became a skeleton, he let out a sigh of relief, and the injuries on his chest disappeared.

Jack stared at Barbosa, then took a small step and ran to Heather, whispering, "Tutor, have I lost the position of'first officer'? It's a pity, but I think you can demote me. The captain of the Black Pearl."

As he said, he raised his eyebrows and grinned, exposing his big yellow teeth, cocked his index fingers and pointed at himself constantly.

"No, no, no, my dear apprentice, I have a more important position for you."

Heather shook his finger and walked towards the Aztec stone chest at the top of Treasure Mountain.

When Barbossa saw Heather coming, he immediately bent over and stepped aside, and said respectfully, "My lord, do you need me to send someone to order those stupid ones to stop?"

If there are ‘Intrepid’ and Royal Marine out there, then Intrepid must also be important to the new captain.

"No hurry, we also have to uphold the principle of Ningque not overrun, right?"

Heather hooked his fingers at Jack and Will on the side: "Come on, lift the curse."

Will is a brave and handsome young man with brilliant swordsmanship. He was a little unhappy when he heard the command, but considering that Barbossa was knocked down by Heather in twos and threes, he couldn't beat the waves no matter how much he could beat. , So he walked over obediently with Jack.

The two took out a dagger and drew a bloody mouth in their palms, held the gold coin so that it was stained with blood, and threw it back into the treasure chest.

...Nothing happened.

"Gentlemen, verify if the curse is gone."

Heather stood in front of the treasure chest with his arms folded: "Or, you let me do it myself?"

Barbossa shivered with fright, and said quickly: "You don't need to do it, please let me do it."

Then he took out a musket and aimed at a pirate who was stunned.

boom!

The pirate fell to the ground, his chest wetted by Bloodline and expanding.

"Oh roar, it seems that the legend is true. As long as the'blood debt' is paid off and the gold coins are returned, the curse can be eliminated." Heather raised his eyebrows and said disapprovingly.

Barbossa bent over and saluted: "In order to eliminate the curse, we have visited several witches and searched for a lot of precious texts in the past ten years. I can guarantee that no one in the world knows Aztec gold coins better than me."

"Speaking of which, if you follow your steps to lift the curse, what are you going to do next?" Heather asked curiously.

Because this box of Aztec gold coins has never appeared since the first part of the Pirates of the Caribbean, Heather doesn't know whether they were taken away by the Royal Marine for safekeeping or were destroyed directly by strange means.

"My lord, if you use it well, this box of gold coins will be an excellent weapon." Barbossa smiled with a smile that was never kind: "Use the curse of gold coins to control other people, and even use them flexibly before the war, after the war. Repay with blood..."

"Uh, wait a moment."

Heather raised his hand to interrupt Barbossa's eloquent explanation, pointed to the box of gold coins and asked in surprise:

"You mean... this thing can also be regarded as a'weapon'?"

"Of course, my lord." Barbossa didn't even notice the main point in Heather's words: "This box of Aztec gold coins can produce undead warriors who are not afraid of death and injury in batches, and can even conquer a large city when used properly. Where is there a better weapon than this?"

"..."

Heather stopped talking, but started to wander around the Aztec treasure chest with his arms, his eyes fixed on the skeleton gold coins inside, and some words that no one could understand were mumbled in his mouth.

"Jack, what is he talking about?" Will asked curiously to Jack beside him.

"I don't know, maybe it's casting a spell." Jack shrugged. He could barely tell whether Heather was speaking Chinese, but he hadn't studied Chinese systematically. Modern Chinese spoken by Heather and 18th century Chinese There was a slight difference, Jack did not hear any substance after listening to it for a long time.

The others didn't dare to disturb Heather, so they watched Heather wandering round and round in silence.

For a time, apart from the crackling of the brazier in the huge grotto, there was only the noise made by Heather walking on the gold coin jewelry.

After a long time, Heather finally stopped and looked up at Barbosa:

"You just said that these treasures, together with all of you, belong to me?"

Um? What does this master think of again? Barbossa was a little bit confused about Heather's routine, but still followed Heather's words: "Yes, my lord, it belongs to you. There is no doubt about this."

After confirming the ownership of the property, Heather nodded in satisfaction, and then lightly kicked the stone box beside his foot: "Well, my loyal first officer, take the property here, especially this stone box and the gold coins in it. , All moved away."

"Excuse me, the cabin of the Black Pearl is not too big. It would be unrealistic to be filled with so many treasures," Barbosa said honestly.

"Then put half of the treasure on the Intrepid. This stone box must remain on the Black Pearl."

Heather doesn’t really care about these treasures. The real focus is on this Aztec stone box: "Who, go outside and call Marine on the Intrepid and the pirates who have not yet died to come in and move things for me. Be quick."

The pirates who were not worthy of being named by the author were like amnesty, nodded eagerly and rushed outside.

Heather turned to look at Jack again: "Jack, you go too, don't let our Norrington Commodore continue to kill, those pirates are rude and savage, but they are all my property! Huh? Mr. Will, you Have something to say?"

"Can I go with Jack? Elizabeth is also on the Intrepid, right?" Will really couldn't wait to meet his sweetheart.

Heather waved his hand indifferently: "Go, go, young people nowadays are full of love, love, and love. It's really boring."

When only Barbosa and Heather remained in this grotto, the latter sat on the edge of the stone box and raised Erlang's legs, and asked leisurely:

"My dear first officer, tell me, is the Black Pearl a ‘weapon’?"
