Reborn As a Pirate

v1 Chapter 113: Maritime Brotherhood

   The rest days came to an end soon.

   On the day of departure, it was cloudy and windy, and the sea was covered with a faint haze.

   Lorraine and his seamen left the hotel’s private room early, and returned to the ship in the first gloomy sky, eating a simple breakfast on board, and waiting for their sailors to return to the building.

   The agreed time for boarding was eight o'clock in the morning. By seven-thirty, the sailors appeared in the port one after another, hungover hangovers, rubbing their waists, all of them looked embarrassed and pale.

   These are all sequelae of excessive indulgence.

   Donna stood on the stern tower and watched everything coldly.

In recent days, stories of the generous Captain Desai and his generous sailors have been circulating in the streets and lanes of Bridgetown. Even Donna, who rarely goes out under the supervision of Henna, has heard of it. The ridiculousness of this ship can be imagined. Know.

   Donna just didn't understand how these unbearable sailors on the land looked like they changed when they stepped on the board.

   Is it because their real captain sits on the board and fishes?

   Or is this the true face of the English sailor, who goes ashore like a worm, and embarks like a dragon?

   If this were the case, wouldn’t this boatman be well-trained and able to retract and release freely?

   Is it possible?

   Donna was almost amused by her thoughts. The smile was very complicated, with five points of self-deprecation, three points of worry, and two points of unwillingness hidden at the bottom.

She stayed in Bridgetown for six full days and could have done a lot of things, but Henna entangled her so hard that she was full of clever strategies and nowhere to use it. To this day, she has not been able to contact anything. An old friend.

   It's too late to say anything...

   is about to go to sea and the way forward is uncertain. She has already begun to consider more realistic questions, whether to follow the Golden Deer to die at sea, or find an excuse to disembark and find a safer way to New Orleans.

How to do?

   Donna stroked the guardrail of the stern, bit her lip in contemplation, and did not notice more than ten meters away. Lorraine was looking at her with a smile.

   Henna sat next to Lorraine, saying nothing or moving.

   Lorraine leaned to Hina's ear: "I heard that she was trying to contact someone?"

   "On the first day she disembarked, she drew a mark in a cold alley not far from the hotel."

   "What mark?"

   Henna took out a small piece of parchment from the coat and gave it to Lorraine. Lorraine opened the fold and saw an unfamiliar pattern.

   Two crossed axes, below are the four numbers [1640], and below is the silhouette of a bird, resembling a flying seagull.

   Henna said softly, "I copied it. You were processing the chart on the ship two days ago, and I have never had a chance to give it to you."

   "It won't matter a few days later, I haven't seen it anyway." Lorraine collected the parchment, "Is anyone coming to connect it?"

"do not know."

"do not know?"

  Henna’s eyes swept over Donna intentionally or unintentionally: "She was very alert, only visited once in the early morning of the next day, and then gave up. I think she should have noticed that I was staring at her."

   "You didn't work separately?"

   "Wang Ye and Noah stared at each other for three days. There were more than 10 people who stopped, and there were three teachings and nine streams, and they couldn't distinguish a special goal."

"I forgot, this is not Europe..." Lorraine shrugged helplessly, "Just so, anyway, I accidentally picked up the line of the New World Fleet. As for Ms. Linka, it's fortunate to get it. Don't... it doesn't matter if it is broken. NS."

  ...

   "Anchor!"

   "Right full rudder!"

   "The wind is southwest, three knots, half sail!"

   "Half a sail! Raise the sail!"

   There was a command one after another, and the sail of the Golden Deer slowly rose.

   Karen stood in the middle of the deck, shouting like a captain: "Golden Deer, target Jamaica, set sail, set sail!"

   "Left rudder 5 degrees! Set sail!"

   "Set sail!"

   The warship set off, blasting the wind and stepping on the waves, and drove leisurely out of the calm sea of ​​Kasril Bay and into the Caribbean Sea.

   Donna did not disembark in the end.

  As soon as the Golden Deer departed from Hong Kong, Lorraine saw her bitterly kicking the guardrail, muttering, and got into the stern tower like an angry little daughter-in-law.

   This made Lorraine feel good about her.

   Facing a ship of sailing idiots, she at least did not choose to leave it alone. Compared with the results, the remaining details such as position, motivation, concealment, and purpose are actually not that important.

   The warship has been sailing at sea for half a day. A sailor ran over and whispered to Lorraine. The shadow of the ship was found at four o'clock. It had been behind the Golden Deer for half an hour. There was no flag at the tip of the mast, and it was unknown.

   Lorraine frowned at the news.

   He was mentally prepared for the attack. After all, he had experienced fishing boats stern when he went to Bridgetown, and he knew who he was being targeted.

   Unlike Donna's determination, Lorraine still has reservations about this possible encounter.

   Because in the ocean, the forces that sail with claws and teeth are nothing more than navy, pirates and privateer merchants.

   Lorraine carefully analyzed the three forces.

  The essence of contemporary privateer merchants is merchants. Like Lorraine, chambers of commerce and trade lines are the basis for their livelihood.

  Lorraine has not established the Caribbean branch so far. Even if it is established, it will not be enough to leverage the profits of the established chambers of commerce in the short term.

   They have no conflict of interest, and those privateer merchants have no motivation to risk attacking a powerful destroyer.

   The navy and pirates have clear motives.

   In the New World, the British colonial authorities are in war relations with France, the Netherlands, the West, and the United States. The navy may launch attacks on British merchant ships with the purpose of cutting off British trade lines.

   But they will not sneak into the British colonial waters, nor will they stare at the Golden Deer without letting go.

   Like this, only the pirates are likely to attack Lorraine.

   The Caribbean has a long history of pirates, and the earliest traces can be traced back to the 16th century when Lorraine's ancestors Francis and John Hawkins ran across the sea.

From the middle of the seventeenth century to the beginning of the eighteenth century, the Pirates of the Caribbean reached their heyday, including the pirate emperor Henry Morgan, the black baron Paplomeu, UU reading www.uukanshu.com, the black beard Edward, and the pirate prince Bellamy. A large number of pirates and celebrities raged in the place where the trade wind hits, making the whole world tremble.

   This era is called the golden age of pirates.

  During the golden age, the pirates of the Caribbean not only promulgated the world-famous piracy code, but also established a pirate empire called the "Brotherhood of the Sea".

   But pirates are pirates after all. With the upgrading of naval firepower, the pirate fleet with light ships and clippers as the core has difficulty shaking the dominance of battleships.

   This situation is like a decisive battle in Cantabrian. In order to take down the Golden Deer at his feet, not only Lorraine was killed, but the British merchants also paid a painful price.

   Thinking of this, Lorraine smiled contemptuously.

   "Can armed forces like this with only light ships and clippers really threaten the Golden Deer?"

   "If it can, the reputation of Pirates of the Caribbean will not fall to where it is now, right?"

   "Maritime Brotherhood..."

   Lorraine's complexion changed suddenly, and he quickly took out the small piece of parchment in his arms with the pattern drawn on it, staring at the surface of the paper in a daze.

   If you replace the crossed axe with a flag, the black flag will be painted with a skull and the blue flag will be painted with a tortoise.

   1640 was the year when Henry Morgan inherited the Brotherhood of the Sea and promulgated the Piracy Code.

   The seagulls below are combined with three-dimensional borders and straight lines to complete the appearance of a book...

  The coat of arms of the Sea Brotherhood!

   Donna Linka is from the Brotherhood of Sea? She is a pirate!

   Lorraine jumped up suddenly: "Henna! Take Tang..."

   "The tail ship hoisted the pirate flag! She is charging at us!" The sailor's scream interrupted Lorraine and shook the deck, "It is estimated that the battle will be engaged in fifteen minutes!"

   "Enemy attack!"
