In the year 1637 of the nautical calendar, it was eight o'clock in the morning on the twenty-seventh day of the stormy month.

The weather today is still gloomy, and the wind is stronger than the previous two days.

Nassau Port.

In front of a two-masted armed merchant ship flying a blackbird flag, Blackbeard was bidding farewell to Red Hat Fitzgerald.

"Really don't burn other people's boats this time. Bode used to work with me for a living. If you had left a little later back then, you would have been your subordinate and one of our own, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to take you."

"Blackbeard explained to the red hat next to him rather earnestly, and by the way, he showed an unattractive look to a fat man with a black bird tattooed on his face who was looking carefully at the bow of the Blackbird.

smile.

The fat man quickly responded with a smile, and by the way, he quietly glanced at the red hat standing next to the black beard. After realizing that the red hat was also looking at him, he immediately showed a brighter smile, but the corners of his mouth moved too much, which inevitably made him stiff.

The red hat took off his hat slightly and bowed, as if he was really grateful that someone was taking him out to sea at this time.

"Don't worry, I've been in a good mood for the past two days. I don't really want to kill anyone. Besides, since he's one of my own, I will definitely treat him well. I'm famous for being kind to my own people, right?" He said

His smile also brightened, and he didn't look like the kind of person who would kill people casually.

"Yes, before you kill one of your own, at least you would say hello and tell them why you killed him." Blackbeard rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"You are wrong. I will do this before killing anyone now. I am very polite." Red Hat retorted to him.

"I really didn't know you were crazy..." Blackbeard was speechless.

"Aren't you a good teacher?" Red Hat suddenly looked at him.

The scene was somewhat silent for a while.

Only the wind from the harbor is blowing.

"Back to business, help me divine my ship one more time." Blackbeard said again after being silent.

"Is it really so important? That ship?" Fitzgerald asked very curiously. It was rare for him to be curious.

Because Blackbeard rarely pays such attention to one thing.

"It's very important. That may be related to..." Blackbeard said this, and suddenly turned around and looked behind him. Behind him was the entire Nasuo.

"This island belongs to me."

"As you wish." Red Hat closed his eyes again and entered some kind of ethereal state.

Ten minutes later, he opened his eyes, and there seemed to be red stars flashing in his eyes.

"It's still chaos." He shook his head, "How about forgetting it, this matter... is not simple."

"Are you worried about me?" Blackbeard didn't feel disappointed at all, he just asked.

"Yes, I'm worried that you will die too early. Dear Teach, you know that you can only die in my hands." Red Hat used a rather gentle tone and looked at Blackbeard with warm eyes.

"Damn, I told you a long time ago that I don't like men, get on this damn ship, damn Fitz." Blackbeard looked like he couldn't stand the goosebumps on his face, he laughed and cursed, and pushed the red hat

A handful.

"Me too." With the help of Blackbeard's push, Red Hat actually flew onto the ship so lightly, taking off his hat in the air to salute, "I'll have a drink with you when I come back."

"Don't come back again." Blackbeard cursed and turned away.

"Maybe I really won't be able to come back?" Red Hat stood on the bow and muttered to himself.

The divination he just performed not only helped Blackbeard divine the whereabouts of the ship, but also divined his own trip this time.

Coincidentally, or rather strangely, there was also chaos in front of him.

On the other side, Li Jiu also got up very early. He got up before dawn to wash, eat and drink, and at the same time checked the status of everyone on the ship.

In the past few days, he was able to let the crew go out to eat, drink and have fun, but last night, he issued a death order that everyone must return to the ship to sleep after dark. If they did not return after dark, they would be expelled from the ship.

As expected, the crew members all came back honestly and slept in their own cabins without even landing.

When Li Jiu got up in the morning to check, they were all ready to go.

Because Li Jiu had bought the latest news on the black market yesterday, Red Hat was going to take the Blackbird to sea around eight o'clock this morning.

After checking the condition of the whole ship, although he did not say what he was going to do next, the crew already felt that they might have to fight.

Therefore, they were all very nervous and had high fighting spirit. They had never lost before following Li Jiu, and now they were not nervous at all. They were just excited that another new victory was about to come.

"Your crew members are all great, and you are a very good captain, Mr. Ince." Of course, Old Haine had already boarded the ship, and at this moment he was observing Li Jiu's crew with his eyes.

Talina also agreed with this. At a young age, she became a third-level astrologer, a wind and thunder warlock, and was also a well-known bounty hunter in the Calabis Sea, the 'Rain Maid'. Her knowledge was naturally extraordinary.

, but it is rare to see a fleet as powerful as the Golden Holy Grail.

She used to think that Li Jiu was a very scheming person with strange methods, but now she realized that he was also very good at handling his subordinates, as the crew members looked at Li Jiu with admiring eyes.

She gained a little more recognition for Li Jiuna's identity as the person suspected of being taken care of by the gods.

"Your horse is very interesting..." Arthur Royer had also boarded Li Jiu's ship.

On the surface, this man looks very cold and melancholy, and he is very tough and not sloppy in his work, but in reality he is very approachable, likes to joke, and is very curious about everything.

For example, as soon as he got on the boat, he touched the horn of the bow and couldn't put it down. He said that he would buy it from Li Jiu at a high price and take it home to hang it on the wall for decoration.

Now I'm interested in rice beans again.

It's a pity that Mi Dou didn't even shake him off, he just gave him a snort and left him with a slap in the face.

Arthur Royer was also angry, but seemed more interested.

Li Jiu was still making final preparations before departure. This time, he still had no plans to bring the Gu Ruide with him.

Anyway, it was just a move to force the Red Hat into the final trap. There was no need to bring so many people, and the Gurread was so slow that it was a bit of a hindrance.

Staying in Nassau is perfect.

As a result, Toller can no longer take it with him, and he has to stay in Nasso to control the situation of the Gured.

He himself was certainly reluctant, but this was Li Jiu's order, and he could only resolutely carry it out.

As nine o'clock in the morning arrived, Li Jiu saw from a distance that the Blackbird was about to sink into the distant sea. This hunting voyage finally started.
