Chapter 482 Beckett's Ambition

Beckett is their mortal enemy.

Moreover, Beckett was the one who branded Jack the pirates himself.

Logically speaking, Jack should hate Beckett.

However, "hate" is an emotion, and it is wrong to evaluate a person by using emotions as a benchmark.

In fact, Beckett is indeed a very powerful person.

He was born in a poor family and had a poor appearance. With such a strict aristocratic class, it was difficult for him to develop with his background.

In this era of navigation, many poor people like him became bandits and became pirates, but he became a director of Dongyindu Trading Company and was even named Lord by the Queen.

The old nobles in China rejected him, but they had no choice but to do anything to him, because he knew that as long as he could still gain wealth for the empire, the queen would always favor him.

How could such a person who started from the difficulty of hell, step by step with other people's blood and bones and climb to the peak of power. How could he not be powerful?

Xu Feng smiled faintly and said, "That's right, I have met Beckett, and I think he is a very powerful person."

In the last plot of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Soul Gathering Coffin", Xu Feng rescued Elizabeth from prison and forced Beckett to sign a privateing permit. At that time, Beckett invited Xu Feng to join him, so there was indeed a communication between them.

"At that time, I pointed a gun at him, but he was calm in the face of danger, without any surprise or fear." Xu Feng said with a smile: "He is not tall and his combat strength is not strong. Even at that time, it was easy for me to kill him. However, he was not afraid of me at all. When he saw me, he had already made a decision that I would not kill him."

Jack shrugged, "You talk to me about this, are you trying to convince me to surrender to Beckett at this time?"

Xu Feng smiled and shook his head, "Of course not! I mean, that guy Beckett is a personal spirit. As such a powerful person, will he be fooled by Xiaofeng?"

Jack frowned slightly, "...Well, what you said makes sense. But he came after all, and a large-scale naval battle would inevitably occur here soon, and we... can only be victims."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "No, Jack, we are not victims. As I said just now, Beckett is a smart person. The reason why smart people are smart is that he knows what he wants at all times, and everything he does is also fighting to achieve his goals."

Jack shrugged, "What does Beckett want? He should want my head, right? Hahaha!"

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Jack, you still underestimate Beckett too much. Beckett does want your head, but your head is not the most important thing for him. What he wants is to eliminate all pirates so that the Sun-Don't Set Fleet will completely control the hegemony of the seven oceans. With this hegemony, then any country in the world will become a colony of the British Empire. As long as this happens, he will become the number one figure of Dongyindu Trading Company, and the queen's favorite minister, and then be known in history."

Jack took a deep breath, "...Well, this guy has such a big ambition."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "So, to you, he is just a personal grudge, and what he really wants is to eliminate all pirates - of course, we also need to understand one definition, that is, what is pirates."

Jack shrugged, "What else does this mean? I am a pirate, so are you, and, still, a good pirate."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise, but in Beckett's opinion, whether he is a pirate depends on whether he listens or not. Is David Jones a pirate?"

Jack nodded and said, "Yes."

Xu Feng shook his head, "In Beckett's opinion, it's not. Otherwise, according to the Pirates Act, David Jones's bounty amount should be 10 million gold coins. But now David Jones is under Beckett's control, so in Beckett's opinion, David Jones is not a pirate."

Jack asked in confusion: "You mean, if we surrender to Beckett, we will not be considered pirates?"

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Yes, but of course we will not surrender to Beckett, but from Beckett's perspective, he would feel that we can be convinced. Because, in order to achieve his goal of maritime hegemony, we still have value."

Jack immediately said, "I understand, he wants to know where the Pirates Conference will be held."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Yes, only the Pirates King knows where to hold it. No one else knows. Beckett will definitely want to find a breakthrough from us two abandoned [bait] and convince us to tell him the location of the Pirates Congress. Then he can take the Sun Fleet to completely eradicate all the pirates once and for all."

Jack grinned and said, "As soon as you say this, I will calm down. Beckett will not kill us, and will politely invite us to his Struggle Number. Oh, I have not been on his Struggle Number for fifteen or sixteen years."

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Come on, let's continue to eat and drink."

"Okay, haha." Jack completely relieved.

In the evening, a fog rose on the sea surface, and the visibility was greatly reduced.

A huge Western-style wooden warship passed through the sea fog and headed towards the Hongmao.

The hull of the Hongmao is similar to that of the Queen, and it is also a large sea boat, but in front of this Western-style warship, it looks like a little brother.

Jack held the side of the ship of the Hongmao, looked at the big ship opposite with a serious expression, and murmured: "...Fight."

The naval soldiers on the Fendou were all in real ammunition, and the muzzles on the side of the ship were also opened, and the black-hole Cannon guns aimed at the broken Hongmao.

Sure enough, as Xu Feng analyzed, although this scene was scary, the Fendou did not fire, but sent a small boat and a team of soldiers led by Mather.

Mather proudly boarded the Struggle and glanced at Xu Feng and Jack with contempt, "Why, you two are just the two of you?"

Xu Feng smiled and said, "Isn't two people enough?"

Mather grinned and said, "Enough, come on the boat with me, Lord Lord will call you two."

Jack waved his hand with exaggerated movements, "It's great here, I'll stay here. If you insist on asking us to get on your boat, I'll just send my first mate as my representative."

Mather sneered: "Jack, you haven't seen each other for many years, and you are still so afraid of death."

Jack smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, Mather, your face is getting uglier and uglier."
