Chapter 1 The Descendants of Pirates(1/2)

Tortuga Island, located off the northern shore of Haiti, is one of the famous Caribbean archipelagos, meaning "Turtle Island" in Spanish.

Turtle Island is a gathering place for all down-and-out people, drunkards, ruffians, wanted criminals and other members.

Here they can not only enjoy themselves freely and not worry about the expulsion and encirclement of the Royal Navy, but also become pirates at any time and go to sea to make money.

This is a chaotic era, and there is no future for the people at the bottom. It is the goal that many people are committed to pursuing.

The high-risk and high-reward pirate profession is naturally sought after by countless people. Even if hanged pirate corpses hung on major ports every day, they still cannot stop people from rushing to the Caribbean Sea.

Turtle Island is the most typical existence. Almost any type of sailor can be found here. Many pirate forces will send their subordinates to station here for a long time and select suitable members to fill them on the ship.

Some well-known large pirate forces will also hire special agents to recruit sailors for themselves. The retired pirate "one-eyed" Hunter, who is over 40 years old, is one of the most well-known agents on Turtle Island.

Over the years, Old Hunter has recruited suitable sailors for many pirate groups. There are rumors that he even has a close relationship with several legendary warships, but no one can confirm this.

People just know that if you want to find a job at sea, you will be right to find one-eyed Hunter at the "Black Sail and Iron Hook" tavern.

......

With red brick exterior walls, multiple herringbone slope roofs, and retro dormitory windows, the architectural style of the entire Turtle Island is full of classic British atmosphere.

On the streets of the old town covered with pebbles and limestone, an old man covered in alcohol was singing loudly.

“Beautiful Havana~”

“I have my home there~”

"The bright sunshine shines on the new house~"

"Red flowers bloom in front of the door~"

The song was filled with nostalgia for the hometown and accusations of the atrocities of the invaders. The old man with tears in his eyes stumbled outside a shabby blacksmith shop.

"Bang!"

Without trying to knock on the door, the old man, who seemed weak, kicked open the blacksmith's door with a very arrogant kick, and started shouting before he even entered.

"Boy, good news. That guy Hunter has started recruiting sailors again. I heard that some amazing guys this time, maybe you can try it."

The dark blacksmith shop was silent, only an oil lamp was lit on the table. The breeze blew, and the wick swayed continuously. The old man widened his turbid eyes and finally saw the figure next to the table.

"Is that so good news."

A slightly hoarse voice sounded, and the figure lifted the oil lamp and slowly walked to the old man.

This is a young man in his 20s, with an ordinary appearance and a weak look. There is a scar between his eyebrows, which looks like a scratch left by some kind of sharp weapon.

This deep scar adds a hint of ruthlessness to the ordinary face of the young man, making him look like a murderous pirate.

Of course, the young man is not a pirate. At least now he is just a down-and-out blacksmith who has made swords and barely made a living.

When the young man heard the old man's words, the young man did not show as excited as he imagined. For this reason, the old man said to him with dissatisfaction: "Boy, you will not be able to retreat when the matter is about to come. Although judging the situation is a necessary skill for pirates, why do you have to give it a try?"

"Don't forget, you are the descendant of pirates, and you are destined to gallop on the Caribbean Sea. I will not allow you to retreat."

Upon hearing this, the young man seemed to finally come back to his senses. Seeing the old man misunderstood, he quickly explained: "How could it be? Going to sea is my dream. I was just thinking about other things just now. I will go and see Old Hunter."

"Hmph, this is almost the same." Seeing that the purpose was achieved, the old man hummed twice, raised the bottle in his hand and took a sip, and said with a slight sigh: "In the blink of an eye, you are going to go to sea. I remember that back then, I personally sent your father out of the port. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it..."

Shaking his head slightly, the old man suppressed his patience and looked at the young man up and down a few times, always feeling that the person in front of him seemed a little strange today.

Thinking without success, he could only attribute it to the changes that men would have before going to sea...the mature changes.

He threw the empty wine bottle aside casually. The old man did not stop too much and quickly turned around and left the blacksmith shop. Before leaving, he left a reminder inexplicably.

"Don't die, boy."

......

Looking at the old man's departure back, after a while, the young man suddenly sighed.

"terribly sorry..."

As for the reason for being sorry, it is because he has occupied this body, and the person the old man really cares about no longer exists in this world at this moment.

Instead, Xing Ze, a player who has just arrived in the world of Pirates of the Caribbean.

Putting the oil lamp back on the table, Xing Ze took out the redemption items from his personal space, and after studying one by one, he checked the properties of the body again.

......

Fahard Scott, a 25-year-old young man living on Turtle Island, has frequently gone to sea since he was a child and was eventually hanged to an island by the Royal Navy.

The young Scott could only rely on the care of the elderly to barely live. It was not until his studies were successful and his life in the blacksmith shop was improved.

But young people are thinking about life at sea and always want to go out to sea to be pirates. Therefore, when they learn that one-eyed Hunter is recruiting sailors, the old man will come and tell the news with great enthusiasm.

There are two main reasons why I chose this host among the many choices.

The first is the identity of the descendants of Scott's pirates.

Looking at the entire Pirates of the Caribbean plot, anyone who can control a legendary battleship or who is in a high position on it has a certain identity background.

The protagonist Jack Sparrow will not be mentioned. Elizabeth is the daughter of the governor, and Wiltner's father also served on the legendary battleship "Flying Dutchman". Even Barbosa was a veritable king of the Caspian before boarding the Black Pearl.

If Xing Ze wants to integrate into the Caribbean world as soon as possible, nothing is more acceptable than the identity of a pirate descendant.
To be continued...
