Chapter 33 Cake

Governor Swan is a very qualified colonial manager, very dedicated to his responsibilities, and he is very supportive of fighting pirates.

The problem now is that Ethan is unknown, and Brigadier General Norrington doesn't know what his attitude is about this.

"In fact, there is nothing wrong with destroying a pirate. The key is that this pirate is not easy to wipe out."

Governor Swan knew the situation in the Caribbean. He basically knew what pirates were difficult to deal with, and of course he knew the situation of the Black Pearl.

"Because of the speed of the Black Pearl, sometimes even if you find the traces of these pirates, it is not easy to destroy them."

Ethan shook his head: "I have a way to find the Black Pearl, and I don't even need the Navy of Port Royal to do it myself. As long as I can provide a ship for me. Of course, it would be even better if you are willing to support some sailors."

"Only one ship is needed?" Governor Swan didn't understand what a ship could do. To deal with a fast pirate ship like the Black Pearl, either use a faster battleship to pursue the battle, or they could only rely on multiple warships to fight an ambush. But looking at Ethan's appearance, it seemed that only one ordinary ship could be provided?

"A ship, sending me near the Black Pearl, does not require any more than that, the Navy of Port Royal."

Ethan's words were the truth, but he deliberately misled Governor Swan. His real meaning was that he could solve the remaining things himself. At this moment, with the identity of Governor Swan, it was easy to be understood as Ethan would mobilize other forces to deal with the Black Pearl. All he had to do was to rush over.

Did other Royal Navy warships come to the Caribbean?

"That is, the Navy in Port Royal doesn't even need to participate in the battle with the Black Pearl Pirates?"

"unnecessary."

"Then in the end..." Governor Swan had to ask clearly how this credit was calculated? Could it be that the navy in Port Royal just went to sea for a while? In fact, the navy went to sea was not a casual matter. A warship consuming a lot of supplies, and it also had to risk the air defense of Port Royal sea.

"I just need the Black Pearl, I don't care about those pirates."

The pirates are credited. Compared to the Black Pearl, the pirates, the value of which is greater for Governor Swan and Norrington, Ethan deliberately gave up the biggest cake in exchange for the support of the Port Royal Navy.

"If this is true, there should be no problem." Weatherby Swan thought about it and found that this matter was only beneficial and not harmful to him and Norrington. If it was really just driving a warship to sea and go around for a while, it would be rewarded with so much credit.

In fact, there is really no problem. Brigadier General Norrington is the age of Nian R&F. He is very happy to hear the attack on the pirates. But as a cautious commander, he needs to understand all kinds of details before he can really act.

In the original plot, after Elizabeth was abducted by Barbosa, the little blacksmith Will Turner decided to cooperate with Jack to rescue Elizabeth himself because he was dissatisfied with Norrington's inaction.

So after Ethan left the Governor's mansion, he was invited to Norrington's office without eating dinner.

"Hello, I'm James Norrington." He reached out and shook Ethan: "This is the second time we met."

"Yes, I forgot to say congratulations to you at that time."

"Thank you so much."

Norrington always maintained a perfect gentlemanly demeanor, and did not show any superior attitude because of Ethan's unknown identity and youth.

Thinking of his performance in the original story, this person is really a good person. Governor Swan wants him to be his son-in-law, which proves that the Governor has a good vision.

After a simple greeting, Norrington directly turned the topic to the main business.

"Just send a warship?"

"One ship is OK."

In most cases, Governor Swan has told him that there is no need to waste time and make sure it is determined again. He just needs to figure out what he wants to know and judge whether the action is worth it.

"Please be honest, the Black Pearl is the top Clipper in this area. At present, the only possibility of Port Royal is the interceptor, so do you want me to send an interceptor?"

"No, as long as you can see the Black Pearl within a visual distance, I don't even ask you to get close to each other. So any ship can do it, not necessarily an interceptor."

Governor Swan also mentioned this situation. Compared to Governor Swann who had little understanding of military affairs, Brigadier Norrington, who was more professional, had more problems in his mind because there were too many unreasonable requirements. But Ethan did not mean to explain to him, which made him very depressed.

"Let's not talk about how you are going to deal with those pirates. Now I have to confirm one thing, otherwise I will not be able to send a warship to the vast sea to find a pirate ship that I don't know where it is."

This requirement is very reasonable. If Ethan cannot give an answer, the plan to launch the Royal Navy this time will be completely failed.

"I found someone." Ethan sorted out his thoughts and explained the matter as clearly as possible: "He has some special means to lead us to find the Black Pearl."

"One?" Norrington thought he had found an intelligence dealer or a pirate who knew the movement of the Black Pearl. This was the most likely guess under reasonable circumstances: "Is it a pirate?"

"It's a pirate." Ethan nodded: "The original captain of the Black Pearl, but this guy was betrayed by his first mate not long after he was a lieutenant and threw him onto the deserted island alone. The first mate is the current captain of the Black Pearl Barbosa."

Norrington nodded. This information is quite reliable. It is not uncomprehensible to know the whereabouts of the Black Pearl. Moreover, the pirates are all-out when they take revenge, and it is not uncomprehensible to contact the Royal Navy.

The only thing that upset him was that he might have to get a pirate to board his warship.

Fortunately, the Royal Navy has had a very complicated connection with the pirates for a long time. Although Norrington, as a brigade general of the Royal Navy, has a bad view of the pirates, he will not refuse when he can use it.

"I need to meet this person."

"no problem."

Speaking of this, a consensus has been basically reached. As long as Jack Sparrow does not do anything that is angry and resentful, and offends everyone, then Norrington will send a warship to help him find the Black Pearl.

At this time, Ethan could have a good rest, but considering that he did not waste time, Ethan did not rest but directly found Jack Sparrow.

It's easy to find, you can find him in the tavern closest to the pier.

"Depending on your appearance, you should have solved all the problems." Jack sat in the corner, where he could observe the situation of the entire tavern well, and the distance from the back door was also appropriate. Once there was a turbulence, he would be able to escape at any time.

"It's basically solved. You need to go to the same place with me tomorrow, and then you can prepare to set off."

Jack looked curious: "I know you can get the gold coins quickly. How did you solve the problem of the ship?"

He had been walking around the dock for a day, and he had already touched the ships in Port Royal. There were no free ships for sale, nor new ships that were about to be launched. He even thought that he could only steal a Royal Navy warship in the end.

"The Royal Navy will help us."

Ethan looked at the wine glass in Jack's hand and finally gave up on his dinner here.

He did not hide his disgust expression, and of course Jack saw it. Coupled with what Ethan said before, Jack felt increasingly that this guy was a nobleman.

"I'm curious."

He didn't want to ask how Ethan handled the Royal Navy, nor did he worry about Ethan's suspected aristocratic identity. What he was really curious about was Ethan's purpose.

"What exactly are you looking for Blackbeard?"

He had previously suspected that Ethan wanted to regard Blackbeard as his merit, but now he might have guessed wrongly. Although Blackbeard is powerful, no matter how strong he is, he is just a pirate. He will not choose to fight head-on when encountering the Royal Navy.

For example, the Black Pearl and Queen Anne Avengers, although they are famous pirate ships, if they really want to fight head-on with the Royal Navy's battleships, they are simply seeking death.

With the Royal Navy's intelligence capabilities, Ethan doesn't seem to need his own help?

"I'm a little interested in some of the black magic that Blackbeard masters."

This makes sense. This young man is in control of magical magic, so it is not uncommon to be interested in similar abilities, but the target he chose happened to be a pirate. Moreover, this is different from simply catching pirates. It is probably because of this reason that he is not ready to borrow the power of the Royal Navy to find Blackbeard.

Although there are still many problems, Jack is not going to continue to struggle. Anyway, the most important thing is to be able to retake the Black Pearl. No matter why he asked him to help him find Black Beard?

"but……"

"What?"

"Do you think the Royal Navy will let me on their warship?"

Ethan looked at Jack's uncomfortable expression and found it very interesting: "So you will go with me tomorrow to meet the local supreme military commander, Brigadier General James Norrington."

Jack's face became even more exciting. As a pirate, he was born to resist the navy, not to mention that he was still a navy general.

"Can't you not go?"

"If you don't go, Brigadier General Norrington might give up this operation." Ethan paused, suddenly remembering something that he didn't explain to Jack: "By the way, the condition for the Royal Navy to be dispatched is that the pirates on the Black Pearl will become their victory fruit."
