People in the heavens are as rich as the enemies of the country
Chapter 21 Jack Sparrow’s Compass
"Mr. Jack Sparrow."
Tang Sen smiled and looked at the embarrassed pirate who was tied up in front of him.
It has to be said that the people in Port Royal are very enthusiastic. It can be seen that poor Mr. Sparrow's originally not decent clothes have been torn even more miserable. The three-cornered leather hat has disappeared, his hair is messy, and his face is not even... I know it was scratched by some excited young lady, leaving three scratch marks.
It is conceivable that before he came, Mr. Sparrow was like a rag doll, being fought over by countless people.
"It's the captain, Captain Jack Sparrow." Although he couldn't move, Jack still corrected stubbornly: "So, you are that Mr. Tang?"
"Sorry, I have no impression of you at all. Have I threatened you before? Or, did I kill your friend?"
"It seems not at the moment." Tang Sen said.
"I think so." Jack's cheek twitched, causing the scar, and he suddenly took a breath of cold air, "Since we have no grievances, why don't you let me go, the two of us sit down, and I will tell you about myself. A story that once spanned the sea.”
"To be honest, those ladies were too rough. I suspect the way they tied me up was not right."
He was lying on the ground, his legs squirming constantly: "My crotch is about to be worn flat."
"I'm afraid not, Mr. Sparrow." Tang Sen looked at him and couldn't help laughing: "I'm not confident in facing a pirate who moves freely. I think you will definitely want to kidnap me and escape."
"So, let's just talk like this."
"At least, you should tell me why you arrested me." Jack said miserably: "It's impossible for a big shot like you to go to the navy to exchange me for a bounty."
"The money you just rewarded those ladies is enough to buy the heads of a pirate ship."
"I just wanted to see what the legendary Captain Jack Sparrow looked like." Townsend said with a smile: "Now it seems that he is exactly the same as what I remembered."
"Of course, I need one more thing from you."
Townsend waved, and Warrant Officer Tom began to move his hands up and down on Jack.
"Easy!" Jack shouted dissatisfied: "Man, don't search so carefully, take your hand out, the thing is behind my waist!"
"It seems you know what I want?" Tang Sen raised his eyebrows.
"Hey, anyone who has heard my story, especially a big shot like you, often has only one purpose." He arched his waist, allowing Tom to smoothly take out the compass from behind his waist.
"My compass."
Tang Sen took the dirty, suspiciously patinated compass, looked it over, and said with a smile: "No one can resist the temptation of a compass that can point to the thing you want most, right?"
"What do you want? Treasure? Power? Or immortality? You--ouch!" Jack waited for a long time, and finally got to the door. Warrant Officer Tom caught him by the collar, and he simply rolled away. After two turns, he leaned against the wall, pretending that this embarrassing scene had not happened, and said seriously: "I have to remind you that the compass is not omnipotent."
"This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Chrysalis." Tang Sen gently opened the compass. As expected, the compass needle did not point to the north, but rotated irregularly.
"Chrysalis? What a weird title. I prefer you to call me Captain, Captain Jack Sparrow." Jack stared at Tang Sen's expression for a while, then suddenly showed a mysterious smile: "It doesn't point to anything. ,Is it right?"
Tang Sen ignored him and stared at the pointer, constantly emphasizing in his heart that he wanted the heart belonging to Davy Jones.
However, the pointer still moved erratically, with no intention of stopping.
Snapped!
Townsend neatly buttoned up the compass and turned his attention back to Jack Sparrow.
"It seems that something unexpected happened."
Regarding this compass, it seems that its use in the original plot does not require any formulas or rituals, and it is not only used by Jack Sparrow himself.
"Can you tell me why it didn't work, Mr. Sparrow?"
"It requires strong emotional fluctuations, firmness and purity." Jack shook his head and said slowly: "Can you really see clearly what you want most?"
Tang Sen's hand holding the compass tightened slightly.
What do you want most? Isn’t it the heart of Davy Jones’s heart?
No, the heart is in the Dead Man's Box, and it also needs the key that Davy Jones carries with him.
That's not right. What he wants most is to escape death. It's useless to just get the heart. This also requires Aztec gold coins.
"Find the Aztec gold coins first."
Tang Sen firmed up his mind and turned on the compass again, but the needle still had no intention of stopping.
"Oh, I can see your determination, Mr. Tang." Jack's tone was a bit sinister: "But you are obviously not a pure person."
"I'm afraid no matter how hard you try, you can't find that certain direction."
"Very interesting." Tang Sen closed the compass, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.
Sure enough, the plan could not keep up with the changes. In his three-step plan, the role of the compass was absolutely indispensable. If the compass could not be used, it would be difficult to complete the procurement task within half a year.
"If I can't use it myself, if I want to find where Davy Jones's heart is, I have to find someone who is pure enough and has the inner desire to find this heart."
People who used this compass in the original novel - Jack Sparrow, Elizabeth Swann, William Turner.
Townsend first eliminated Jack Sparrow. Although he was the master of the compass, Townsend was convinced that this was not a person he could control. This man was too smart and had too many uncertainties——
There are thousands of dead souls on the sea, and the saying that Captain Jack offends half of them is no joke.
In the original plan, Townsend even decided to imprison him in Port Royal so as not to affect the next plan.
As for Elizabeth Swann, although in the original work, it was she who found the Undead Box with a compass, the plot has changed at this time. Unless she can redirect the plot back to its original state, she may not be interested in the Undead Box.
"William Turner, you are the one, pure enough and with enough reasons to look for the Dead Man's Chest."
After all, the other party's father is being enslaved by the Flying Dutchman. In order to save his father, the filial son may be willing to pay any price.
"Unfortunately, based on the conditions of the compass, Mr. Turner's heart may not be pointed at the Aztec gold coins. This target must be found by other people."
Townsend opened his eyes and looked at Jack Sparrow again.
"Captain Jack Sparrow, I think we have a lot to talk about."
