Like a declaration.
Bellamy's cynical face showed a solemn expression for the first time.
Of course he didn't really know anything about Lorraine as he did.
As one of the seven pirate kings in the Caribbean and the top figure in the pirate world, even if his nature is no matter how ordinary, the dignity and arrogance brought by that title will not allow him to be shy about a stranger who knows nothing.
In fact, there is only one reason why he deliberately approached Lorraine, that is, someone wants him to do so.
The man told him that there were three warships anchored in the south of the island, one modified class 5, one standard class 5 and one high-speed class 6, all flying the colorful pupil pirate flag.
There is no record of CAITONG skeleton in the records of the maritime brotherhood.
The discovery alerted the man at once.
According to the popular naval algorithm, the strength of CAITONG skeleton to visit Turtle Island is more than 100 guns. There are hundreds of Pirates floating in the Caribbean, which is strong enough to steadily rank in the top 30.
Not to mention the high quality of this mysterious fleet.
The ships are new and well maintained. The sailors show good professional skills in the process of nearshore, and the final berth and posture of the fleet show that they have the tactical literacy rarely seen in the pirate world.
If these positive conditions are also included in the calculation, the strength of CAITONG skeleton among the pirates in the Caribbean will stabilize into the top 10. Even if it is still unable to defeat the existing six pirate kings, it is definitely the most powerful Pirate Group under your position.
Such a pirate regiment can never appear out of thin air!
Where did he come from and why did he come? Is it an excellent peer in other sea areas or an invading force in other worlds?
With these four questions, the man found Bellamy and persuaded Bellamy to stand in front of Lorraine.
Now Lorraine gives Bellamy the answer.
Privateer.
A privateer on the Caribbean Sea.
A privateer who wanted to be the pirate king.
An excellent colleague from other world who wants to win the pirate world.
Is this Lorraine's truth?
Bellamy squinted slightly, trying to distinguish the truth of the words from Lorraine's expression.
But he can't.
Lorraine's expression has been far away, and the real emotion is hidden under the acting skills.
True or false, half true and half false, sometimes true and sometimes false.
There was only one message Bellamy could recognize. Lorraine didn't trust him and wasn't ready to trust him.
Miscalculation
A strong sense of frustration haunted Bellamy.
He knew that he had come to a decent end. At this time, he should hand over the news from Lorraine intact to that person. As for whether it was true or false, interested people will continue to verify it.
But that meant he admitted defeat.
Even if this victory or defeat has nothing to do with interests or life and death, failure is failure. Bellamy hates failure.
He suddenly laughed at himself, took out his hand held back by Lorraine, held it high and retreated to social distance.
"Hey, Lorraine, you almost scared me," he said. "But think about it, why do successful people like you get involved with us vagrants?"
"There's really no reason." Lorraine stared into Bellamy's eyes, "but human behavior is not driven by reason. Many times it will put the cart before the horse, just like I want to be the pirate king, so I told myself that I need to destroy some unlucky people with skeleton flags."
"It may be harder than you think."
"It may not be as difficult as I thought."
"Really?" Bellamy gave Lorraine a deep look. "I hope you really understand the weight of that sentence."
"Because will you bring it to the brothers of the sea?"
A moment of silence.
After silence, Bellamy burst out laughing, "did you guess?"
"You guessed it from the moment you introduced yourself." Lorraine bowed slightly and smiled. "Then, your highness, Prince pirate, would you like to convey my intention?"
A moment later, the Domed hall.
Bellamy sat cross legged on the sacred council table of the brotherhood, holding a dagger in his hand and trimming his long nails.
Opposite him sat three old men.
The middle old man asked, "Leonardo, is that what CAITONG skeleton really said? Because on a whim, a privateer is ready to join the competition for the pirate king?"
"I remember my job as a messenger, captain. It doesn't seem to be your duty to invite tory."
"Do you think this is his truth?"
Bellamy grinned. "I don't seem to have the obligation to judge true or false."
The old captain frowned unhappily, "Leonardo, I taught you."
"That's why I insist on sharing my wealth with the holy sea brotherhood, rather than ignoring the call of turtle island like several other Highnesses."
Bellamy stood up, stepped on the sacred table and walked lazily to the display cabinet of the Pirate Code.
"Times have changed, old folks. Aggressive dolphins are about to pour into the sharks, and you... Have no choice at all."
……
Lorraine and Haina were invited into the Domed hall. Only Barto, a sailor, was allowed to accompany them, while the other sailors were so tough that they were rejected.
Now they are sitting at one end of the round table, and the other end is full of twelve middle-aged and elderly people without pirate temperament. Each of them has a magnifying glass and a group of six. They seriously study the two charts handed in by Lorraine. From time to time, they have to talk in a low voice. The dispute is very fierce.
A very absurd feeling.
Lorraine looked at the code guardians who were neither noble, brave, domineering or even strong. Accidentally, he saw a gray and dirty boot print in the middle of the table.
He suddenly regretted putting Katrina on the road sign.
Here are the clean South Beach, the drunkards and wild mandarin ducks beside the lake, the obscene brotherhood, the conference table trampled arbitrarily
He urgently needed someone to tell him whether these scenes of disobedience were the tradition of uninhibited pirates or the holy degeneration of the brotherhood.
As Bellamy said, he knew nothing about pirates and pirate holy places in the Caribbean. These ignorance had begun to hinder his judgment.
What should I do?
He looked at Barto, who was obviously too nervous, and then looked at Haina, who had nothing to do with himself. Suddenly he stretched out his hand and poked the back of Haina's hand.
Hannah tilted her head and threw a question mark.
"Haina, the communication will begin with you. I need to understand something."
Haina blinked, took back the first question mark, and threw two more backhands.
"Just follow your nature and don't care about the results."
"I see," she whispered in a rustling voice.
After a long time, the guardians of the code finally verified the authenticity of the chart.
They dragged their heavy high backed chairs back to their seats, tidied up their clothes and looked solemn.
The old man third from the right knocked the wooden hammer.
"Now, ask the time."
Lorraine frowned because the old man used the word [admonition], but there was no authoritative atmosphere at the scene.
"Lorraine Jonathan Drake, where did you get the pirate king's Keepsake!"
Lorraine just closed her eyes.
"Robbed," said Haina plainly.
"Well... What we want to know is where it comes from."
"Black Mamba, and red haired Katrina."
"Black mamba's name!"
"It's too long to forget." hainali was straight and strong. "He said you gave it to him. You should be familiar with him."
"Of course we remember!" the fourth left middle-aged was furious. "Where are Lorraine Jonathan Drake, black Manny ferrard and red haired Katrina!"
Haina eyebrows a pick: "the man killed, the woman let go."
"Where are the serpent and the Spanish rose?"
"It's sinking."
"Are they all sunk?"
Haina thought carefully and nodded, "it's all heavy."
This is the effect of letting Haina go by her temper... Lorraine sighed that the corners of her mouth had already turned up inadvertently.
He finally came to a conclusion about thinking.
Authority is lost, fierce and timid.
No matter how glorious the sea brotherhood used to be, now there are only a group of useless old people left here.
That means Lorraine doesn't need any more scruples.
He gently held Hannah's hand, smiled and said, "end this boring conversation, gentlemen. In my opinion, you should have received the news that philad ambushed Katrina, that Katrina escaped on my ship, that I executed philad in accordance with the pirate ritual, and that I exchanged charts with Katrina with the viper."
"You may not be able to connect the two at first. After all, my golden deer has been refitted, and my skeleton flag is only seen by philad and his team members before they die, and then it never appears anywhere."
"But when you see the chart, all this should be connected. You may want to verify the truth of the information or recall the details of the intelligence by asking, but since the chart is true, it's not necessary."
"The chart is mine. Whether I buy it from an auction house, pick it up in the water, or give it as a gift from a friend, its sacred real right will not change, and the rights and interests it brings should also be protected."
The left six old man sneered.
"Sacred real right? Lorraine ananson Drake, this is Turtle Island. We are talking about the holy relics of the pirate emperor of the Caribbean. Only the maritime brotherhood is entitled to their real real real right. If we want to get it back, you have to obey it."
Hearing this, the competent Haina was about to explode immediately.
Lorraine held her hand, not sullen or angry.
"This sentence, I can understand that you have the intention to redeem the chart?"
Zuo San Leng hum: "you can also understand that for profit is a businessman."
"In that case, we are in business." Lorraine slowed down his speed and knocked on the table every time he said, just like knocking at the bottom of people's heart. "This is a chart worth millions of pounds, and points to the legendary spring of youth. The spring of youth is priceless, but the only unconfirmed news is not worth too much for the treasure itself."
"Considering that everyone here may not be good at mathematics, let's be simple and make it worth 1.2 million pounds. If the sea chart is worth 2.2 million, one 22nd of it is 100000 pounds and two copies are 200000 pounds..."
"You are blackmail!" the second right exclaimed.
"Businessmen do not blackmail, but only provide choices." Lorraine said calmly, "I have the right to choose under what circumstances to accept your redemption conditions, and you also have the right to choose whether to redeem, or publicly recognize my ownership of the chart and enjoy all the rights and legal rights it can bring me."
In the temple of the lawless, the dolphin pushed the ball out of the center of the shark group.
"Dear guardians of the code, businessmen and pirates have different understanding of time and contract. So please tell me, should I exercise the pirate's power with your permission, or skip you and go my own way?"
