The world is cruel.

Most things that cannot be done will not cause miracles because of persistence.

Hawkins understood this truth very early, so after spending half a day studying the black knife without success, he decisively gave up his ability to continue studying the black knife.

Let’s set the Black Knife’s ability to be ‘hard’ for the time being.

It's really 'hard'.

It does not absorb heat, conduct electricity, and cannot be damaged. It is the hardest substance Hawkins has ever come into contact with.

The next two days, the wind was calm.

Joyce still didn't come to him.

But this is not surprising. Joyce and Julian were originally searching for the entire sea area separately.

The search directions of the two were completely opposite, so Joyce could not find the Black Knife so quickly unless he found out that Julian could not contact him.

"Son of Pirates, I will return the humiliation you have given me a hundred times sooner or later!"

Julian, who had been hungry for two days, was still fierce, and his roar could be heard dozens of meters away.

Hawkins said innocently while eating grilled fish: "You can't hold back your urine, what does it have to do with me?"

"I'm going to kill you!" Julian shouted in shame and anger.

Hawkins swallowed a piece of grilled fish and sighed, "You can't be a little creative, you've said this thirty times."

Although he likes to communicate with people, Julian only has a few words back and forth, and there is nothing to communicate with.

At this time, his ears moved and his eyes looked to the left. As the shape of his pupils changed, he saw a ragged man soaking in the sea water in the distance, constantly waving towards the Black Knife.

He immediately controlled the naval soldiers to turn the rudder, and the Black Knife sailed in the direction where the man was.

After a moment, the Black Knife came near the man. Hawkins threw down the rope ladder. The man quickly grabbed the rope ladder and quickly climbed onto the Black Knife.

"Thanks."

The man was trembling all over, took the towel handed over by Hawkins, and hurriedly thanked.

Julian took the opportunity to speak, "Civilians, get off the boat, this is a pirate ship, accept the help of pirates, and you will be ashamed of your ruler!"

"Pirateship?"

The man was stunned, and then looked up and saw the black canvas on the black knife mast and the white skull pattern on the canvas.

He was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Great, I have long wanted to be a pirate. This captain, do you still need a fighter?"

"Civilian, you are seeking death!" Julian said furiously.

Hawkins didn't care about Julian and smiled, "My name is Hawkins, the captain of the Black Knife. I think I should need a qualified combatant!"

"Captain Hawkins, my name is Storm Mark. You can call me Mark, a homeless ronin." The man immediately bowed slightly.

Hawkins curiously said, "How long have you been in the sea?"

"It's been almost a month. This sea is so big. The first time I have seen such a big sea." Mark said with lingering fear.

Julian sneered: "You have been dead after being lying in the sea for a month."

"I almost died, but fortunately I met Captain Hawkins." Mark glanced at Julian and said disrespectfully.

Hawkins smiled and said, "Just call me Hawkins. You can change to this navy soldier and have some dry clothes. If you have anything to say, we should be hungry, right?"

"Okay, thank you again."

Mark nodded and then turned around and walked towards the cabin under the guidance of the naval forces.

After Mark entered the cabin, Julian insultedly: "The Son of Pirates, the civilian named Mark has unknown origin. If I were you, I would never let him on the boat. You are seeking death."

"Are you hungry or thirsty? It's been two days since you've got the strength to speak." Hawkins asked suddenly.

Julian stared at Hawkins tightly and stopped talking. It would be enough to provoke him once. He believed that even if Hawkins didn't care on the surface, the seeds of doubt would arise in his heart.

After a moment, Mark changed into a tunic and returned to the deck.

"Thank you again. If I hadn't met you, Hawkins, I might have really fallen this time." Mark walked to Hawkins and bowed slightly. This was his third time thanking him.

Hawkins smiled and said, "This is probably fate, let's talk while eating."

The two of them sat down, and the navy quickly brought various grilled fish.

After Mark thanked him, he began to eat fish in big mouthfuls. Hawkins found that he could even chew and swallow the bones directly, and the whole fish did not spit a single bone after eating them.

After eating five big fish in a row, Mark stopped and smiled, "I'm full, Hawkins, you have no problem asking me?"

"It doesn't matter. If you are willing to say it, I think I'd rather be an audience." Hawkins replied slowly, eating the eighth fish.

Mark was slightly surprised because Hawkins was very different from the pirate captain he knew.

He has dealt with many pirates in the past. Those pirates are either rude or insidious, and are basically scumbags who are so bad that they are.

But Hawkins is completely different from those pirates.

Hawkins is tall and handsome, dressed cleanly and neatly, and has no odor on his body. He is not so much a pirate as a nobleman.

"Interesting person!"

Mark made a judgment in his heart, thought for a while and spoke: "Captain Hawkins, my words just now were not a lie. I am indeed willing to be a pirate, but I can only do it for ninety days."

"No problem, I can hire you for 90 days, and the salary is 1 silver coin per day, no problem?" Hawkins did not refuse, but nodded seriously.

The salary of the naval soldiers on Viagra is 20 silver coins per month, while the salary of Hawkins is 1 silver coin per day, and the salary of the naval soldiers is about 30 silver coins per month, which is far beyond the treatment of the naval soldiers.

Mark nodded and said, "It's reasonable."

"Son of Pirates, I didn't expect you to be so naive. You dare to take him in without even knowing his origin. Be careful of capsizing in the gutter!" Julian sowed.

In fact, what he said was not "crowding in the gutter", but "Ma Dan's hammer", which belongs to the allusion of this world, but the general idea is similar to capsizing in the gutter.

Mark looked at Julian and said unhappy: "Captain, don't you think this little bat is noisy?"

"It's okay, you think he's a talking parrot, and it should feel better." Hawkins smiled.

Mark shrugged and then stood up and said, "I'm exhausted after soaking in the sea for a month. Captain, I'll go back to the cabin to rest first."

"Go." Hawkins nodded.

After Mark left, Julian smiled sinisterly: "Sure enough, this guy has a problem. Most people are scared to death when they see me, and you will definitely regret taking him in!"

"Who knows."

Hawkins refused to comment and continued to eat fish.

Of course he knew that Mark was not an ordinary person. When Mark boarded the Black Knife, he found that Mark was five times the weight of a normal person. Moreover, Mark glanced at Julian as soon as he got on the boat, but he did not make any fuss.

Julian is now in the form of a bat, a talking bat. Ordinary people will definitely be surprised when they see it, but Mark did not reveal any abnormalities from beginning to end.

Moreover, when he was taken to the cabin by the navy, Mark had never spoken to the navy. He seemed to see that the navy was Hawkins' puppet, so he had no idea of ​​communicating at all.

Through these Hawkins, we can be sure that Mark is not an ordinary person.

On the other side, Mark was lying on the bed, showing a smile. When Hawkins observed him, he was naturally observing Hawkins.

Hawkins is not like a pirate.

Moreover, through further contact, he found that Hawkins' physical fitness may be stronger than himself.
