Chapter 48 The Black Pearl (Part 1)

The big black boat in the distance came like a black swordfish riding on the waves. If it was just a phantom at first, then when Hong Langjingang and others picked up the binoculars, what they saw was already a real entity.

The first thing that catches the eye is the oddly long ram.

Compared with the Black Pearl in the movie, the ramming horn of the Black Pearl in front of me is longer and thicker. If the ramming horn of the "Flying Dutchman" is like a giant shark, then the ramming horn of the Black Pearl is like the super long lance of a medieval knight, with a breathtaking momentum.

Looking over the ramming angle, I saw the huge hull, the waves slapped the hull, and a wave as high as the boat surged. The whistle of shouting can also be vaguely heard, echoing leisurely.

"Damn it! It's so fast! I've never seen such a fast sailboat!" Hong Lang shouted hysterically.

Looking from a distance, the Black Pearl is looming on the sea, riding the waves and racing furiously. Its speed is so fast, as if an arrow is shooting at your eyes, and the volume will continue to expand in the eyeballs until it rushes in front of you.

Shen Yi used the telescope to look again, kept adjusting the focal length of the telescope, and calculated its speed: "The speed is 25 knots, and it is still accelerating... It's almost 30 knots, it's already a submarine! "

"This is unbelievable." Gentle exclaimed: "It is impossible for a sailboat to reach such a high speed!"

"Modern sailing boats can reach the highest speed theoretically, and it will become a normal speed when running on the Black Pearl." Shen Yi replied, and he was still continuing to observe.

"Our ship's sail power is only 7 knots, and it is impossible to outrun the Black Pearl." King Kong said discouraged.

"Then don't run, get ready to start a war, they are coming straight at us." Gentle and heroic replied.

Hong Lang licked his lower lip: "A monster with six thousand points, I don't know how powerful it will be."

This is not 6,000 points composed of twelve small pirate ships, but a boss-level existence in the Pirates of the Caribbean world.

He is the protagonist of the Pirates of the Caribbean world, the powerful and cunning captain of the Black Pearl.

Even Shen Yi didn't dare to expect Captain Jack Sparrow to show kindness in this situation—pirates are pirates, and the reason why occasional mercy can make their names last forever lies in the fact that occasionally, not lies in compassion.

But at this moment, a sharp cry suddenly sounded from behind.

"Look behind!"

Everyone turned their heads at the same time, only to see a huge battleship also appearing behind them.

It was a super huge golden battleship.

It looks a whole circle bigger than the largest sailing ship in the sixteenth century, and there is no large ram installed on the bow, so it is obviously not a shock ship. Part of the hull is also covered with fire-resistant cowhide, which can effectively prevent shells and flames from attacking.

There are three decks in the hull, and each deck is equipped with a large number of cannons, including the rapid-fire heavy cannons encountered on the Wanderer, but the caliber is larger, and the densely packed holes make the scalp numb at first glance. .

If the impact of the Black Pearl is like a speeding car, then the giant golden ship is like an iceberg moving slowly on the sea surface—the speed is not too fast, but full of energy. strength and oppression.

On the mainmast of the huge golden ship, hung a red and white rice flag with a dark blue background.

"It's the Intrepid!" Gentle shouted: "The flagship of the British Royal Navy!"

Hong Lang said with a dull expression: "Damn it, did we collide? The two ultimate warships in Pirates of the Caribbean appeared together."

King Kong corrected: "It should be said that they are the two ultimate warships other than the ghost ship."

"I don't fucking need you to correct this." Hong Lang scolded angrily.

Shen Yi was not in a hurry, he looked at the Intrepid, then looked back at the Black Pearl, and finally said: "It turns out that it is like this, they are not coming after us."

"What did you say?" Everyone was stunned.

Shen Yi's hand has already pointed to the Black Pearl: "Look!"

The Black Pearl rushed towards the merchant fleet like a tornado on the sea,

The Intrepid at the rear is also approaching this way.

Shen Yi's fleet unexpectedly became a midpoint between the two ships.

"I understand." King Kong exclaimed, "They are going for each other."

"That's right." Shen Yi nodded.

Pirate ships and navies are natural enemies, and it is normal for them to go to war as soon as they meet each other.

But this time the two BOSS-class warships collided with each other, it was a rare spectacle, and it happened that Shen Yi and the others met.

"Then what should we do now?" Faced with this situation, Hong Lang was a little dizzy.

"What else can I do?" Shen Yi replied: "Lead the crowd to watch, let's make soy sauce."

King Kong reminded helplessly: "Be careful when gods fight, mortals will suffer."

Shen Yi replied coldly: "They are not gods, and we are not mortals either."

He suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Turn the rudder 25, the left boat is caught by the wind, half sail!"

The fleet quickly followed the instructions, and Hulala began to turn.

If the opponent wants to fight, I should hurry up and get out of the battlefield first.

The fleet quickly sailed away from the central zone, giving up this piece of sea area. Seeing that the distance between the Black Pearl and the Intrepid was getting closer and closer, a big triangle gradually formed between them.

Just as Shen Yi expected, the Black Pearl really wasn't coming towards them. The ship rushed straight towards the Intrepid. The man with the sword stood at the front with his head held high.

The vision gradually became clear, and Shen Yi could even see the man's eyes.

They looked at each other, their eyes sparkled, and then looked at the Dreadnought at the same time.

"That's Jack Sparrow?" King Kong asked curiously.

"I don't know, he's facing us from the side, so he can't see his face clearly, but he looks really sloppy." Hong Lang muttered.

He heard the chatter of his companions, but the two battleships in front of him were getting closer and closer.

"Seven hundred meters, six hundred and fifty meters, six hundred meters, five hundred and fifty meters, five hundred meters..." Shen Yi carefully calculated the distance.

As the distance drew closer, the Far Intrepid slowly turned its huge body, fully facing the Black Pearl with its starboard side.

Boom boom boom, dozens of artillery roared at the same time, as if dozens of beasts were roaring. A series of white smoke rose, blasting water waves in the Caribbean Sea.

If the firepower of the Wanderer can turn the sea into a fountain, the firepower of the Dreadnought is the opposite. At the moment when all the guns were fired, the surface of the sea was like boiled boiling water, and at the same time, it spurted violently from the outside of the pot, and the huge waves created were huge, dense, and powerful!

Hundreds of cannons landed precisely, almost all falling in the same area; they were so powerful that they directly raised the entire sea level to the point where a mountain peak went out to sea; the momentum was strong, causing continuous waves in this sea area , rather than a simple independent fountain...

The Black Pearl is like a frog jumping into boiling water. After being scalded by the boiling water, it jumps up suddenly... It rushed out of the huge wave area at high speed, changed direction suddenly from the original straight line, and took a zigzag route. Heading towards the Intrepid.

The cannons fired non-stop, rolling huge waves followed by the Black Pearl. From a distance, the Black Pearl looked like a heavy truck driving into a pond. Large swirls of torrents swirled out from both sides of the hull, shaking the entire ship. All drowned.

boom!

A shell hit the side of the Black Pearl's hull, sending pieces of wood flying wildly.

A sailor yelled and flew into the air in a huge explosion.

Before he landed, two consecutive shells hit the bow deck and the other side of the hull, and the debris and dust from the blast danced in the air, whistling and circling like fallen leaves in the wind.

Cannonballs flew non-stop in the air, whistling and humming, forming a continuous long sound...

At that moment, Shen Yi and the others looked at this spectacular and fierce scene, as if they had returned to the battlefield of World War II, the sky was filled with gunpowder smoke, and shells were bombarding everywhere.

And all of this was actually caused by an ancient warship from the sixteenth century.

"My god, is this still an old-fashioned warship?" Hong Lang murmured, "A modern cruiser doesn't even have such ruthless firepower."

"It even took off two F22s from the deck, I wouldn't find it strange." Shen Yi was still calm.

He was even more surprised by the Black Pearl's performance compared to the fearsome firepower of the Intrepid.

Although the Intrepid's firepower was huge and powerful, the damage suffered by the Black Pearl was extremely small. It wasn't that the Dreadnought's attacks were inaccurate, in fact those shells were perfectly accurate. Shen Yi was almost certain that if it was used to hit himself, then only one or two rounds of salvo would be enough to completely knock down a ship on his side.

But the Black Pearl is different.

It's too fast and too responsive!

Whenever the artillery shells roared and fell in the air, the Black Pearl was always able to turn ahead of time and avoid the area where the shells were most concentrated. Not only that, it can even use the wave crest to boost itself, just like what Shen Yi did to hit the rover, so that it has the ability to jump from one area to another quickly like a short-term leapfrog. place. This incredible ability to control the ship has exceeded the limit of practical use, and only exists in this abnormal world. Its dexterity and speed are like the vehicles controlled by Zhou Yiyu, completely subverting the laws of physics.

The Black Pearl kept shuttling and evading in the monstrous waves, and it seemed that it was approaching 300 meters away from the Intrepid.

This is the place where the gunfire is the most concentrated. The waves are like boiling water in a pressure cooker, constantly spraying outwards. The Black Pearl sails vigorously in the wind and waves, like a swift in a storm, flying freely, which makes people's hearts tremble!

When it dodged horizontally again and dodged a hail of bullets, Hong Lang and others finally couldn't help shouting: "Good job! Shen Yi, did you see what this ship did just now? Make displacement! It is as free as on land, and it is playing with drifting!"

"It was really beautiful!"

"As long as they charge another 200 meters, they will be able to get close to the Intrepid." King Kong said in a deep voice, "I'm sure that if the Black Pearl can charge up so recklessly, they must be sure of victory."

The British navy possesses powerful long-range firepower, and the pirate ships possess a strong ability to engage in side-to-side combat. This has been confirmed by Shen Yi and the others.

"The problem is that they may not be able to get close to the Intrepid so easily." Meek said suddenly.

It is said in the information that the flagship of Pirates of the Caribbean is the Endeavor, but I think the name is not imposing, so I changed it to the Intrepid.
