"Captain Zhang Heng, what does this mean?" Jarvis looked at the muzzle pointing at him, suppressed the smile on his face, showing a look of confusion, and the expressions of the other captains on the side were also very surprised at this time.
As a result, Zhang Heng's next sentence set off another more violent storm.
"We went out to sea this time, and there was a fleet of navy and pirate hunters following us. They were going to attack us tonight. As we spoke, that fleet was also coming towards us. In fact, they are now It may appear in front of us at any time."
"How is this possible?" Black Prince Sam frowned, "If someone has been following us for so many days, it is impossible for us to not notice at all, unless..."
"Unless someone betrays us and leaks our route to others, those people can stay far behind." Brook sneered, "No wonder my ship was attacked for no reason before, so you have already taken refuge in those nobles How about it, it's nice to lick their ass, Jarvis."
Jarvis is indeed an old pirate who has been in this sea for many years. Hearing this, his expression remained unchanged and he nodded to Brooke, "I can understand your anger. You have always suspected that the previous incident was related to me, so you were provoked You'll be hooked right away, luckily there are other sane people out there."
Jarvis did not wait for Brooke to answer, then shifted his gaze to Zhang Heng, and said politely, "Captain Zhang Heng is accusing me very seriously, so I would like to ask, what evidence do you have to prove yourself?" What are you talking about, how do we know that you are not the one who betrayed the others and attracted the fleet, or you want to use this method to trick us into leaving so that you can take the gold for yourself." After finishing speaking, he spread his hands.
What Jarvis said sounded reasonable and was recognized by most of the captains present. Especially the last sentence directly pointed the finger at Zhang Heng. Even Brook couldn't help being shaken when he heard the words.
Compared with Zhang Heng, they have known Jarvis for a longer time. The latter is an old man in Nassau. On the other hand, Zhang Heng's rise on the island is too short. This is the first time that everyone has cooperated in a strict sense. In terms of trusting them, of course, they are more inclined to believe the latter. No one can guarantee that Zhang Heng is not lying now, using the fleet as an excuse to trick them out of here, and then sneak back to fish for the gold.
This is where Jarvis is most powerful. He thinks he has done a good job of contacting the navy fleet, but in the end Zhang Heng found out. After thinking about it, the only possibility is that he arranged to guard the boat in the woods. People were caught, but those people were on the same boat as him, and they would definitely not admit to such a thing, and of course it was not ruled out that they would tell the truth under the threat of death.
But when the knife rest is on the neck, even if nothing happened, people will admit it, so it is actually hard to say how credible their statement is. At this time, Jarvis muddied the water, although he did not wash himself away. The suspicion on his body can successfully delay the time until the fleet arrives.
However, he also had to admit that Zhang Heng's accusation did bring him a lot of trouble. His original plan was to pretend to resist with the people on the beach when the navy arrived, but after that, he joined hands with Sarah Mu and others took a hard blow in the back, but now it seems that this plan is in vain.
With Zhang Heng's reminder that Sam and others will definitely be wary of him, he has to consider how to protect himself after the fleet arrives, but no matter what, he has at least survived the current crisis.
After speaking, he looked at Zhang Heng calmly.
Sure enough, the Black Prince Sam pondered for a while, and said, "This matter needs to be investigated first, so how about it, since everyone trusts me, I can arrange people to monitor the movement on the harbor..."
He was interrupted by Zhang Heng before he finished speaking, "You misunderstood me, I'm not accusing Captain Jarvis, I'm just telling you the news, everyone who believes me or not is leaving. "
"Are you leaving? Now?" Brooke asked in surprise, "What about the underwater gold? By the way, do you still have people who can sail?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Anne, Dufresne and the others coming out of the woods. There was still a trace of blood on the dagger held by the red-haired girl. As for Harry, several strong sailors took turns carrying him on his back. On the back, all the way to here.
On the other side, Ramsey on the other side also desperately wanted to double the spoils in the future, and gathered most of the sailors on the Jackdaw in the shortest time, where a group of drunks were smiling and clamoring for money.
"You guys keep the gold." Zhang Heng said, and then put the muzzle of the gun on Jarvis's forehead, "I'm sorry, Captain Jarvis, let your people put away their weapons, as long as my people are safe on board , I will naturally put you back."
Jarvis did not expect that Zhang Heng was so decisive that he had no intention of reasoning with him at all. Strictly speaking, it is not too disadvantageous for him to be on the beach now. Everyone on the Jackdaw stayed behind. Of course, even if his identity as a traitor was completely confirmed, the people from the other pirate ships would also join the battle.
Jarvis may not be willing to pay such a casualty price, but Zhang Heng does not want to gamble on this possibility. It is Zhang Heng's plan to control Jarvis so that his people can't do anything.
It has been more than an hour since Harry saw the small boat that reported the message leave, and the situation is already very serious. Zhang Heng spent another fifteen minutes on the beach, and now he doesn't want to spend any more time. After staying there, seeing that Annie and the others had come back, he asked Dufresne to organize people to start transporting people to the Jackdaw.
The ferry boat can hold about a dozen people at a time, and it takes at least seven or eight minutes to go back and forth, so it takes at least half an hour to transport everyone on board.
This time was unacceptable to Zhang Heng, but at this time, his gaze swept to the ferry boat of the Warrior on the other side, and he said to Jarvis, "Lend me your boat."
Before Jarvis could answer Zhang Heng, he asked Annie and others to fetch the boat. However, a group of crew members from the Warrior stopped in front of the red-haired girl. Facing enemies that were several times larger in number, Annie didn't back down and pulled out the boat directly. Saber.
However, it was Zhang Heng who moved faster than her. Zhang Heng lowered the muzzle of the gun and pulled the trigger without hesitation. Jarvis let out a scream, and a blood hole was directly shot out of the sole of his foot by the bullet.
At this time, Zhang Heng had already taken the second short musket from a crew member, and continued to put it on the latter's forehead.
"Don't challenge my patience."
