Chapter 47 Playing with Curses
"Did I drink too much rum?"
The silence in Old Bernie's Tavern did not last long. A pirate mumbled in a daze and broke the silence.
"I feel like I'm seeing gold - oh, so much gold!"
"Me too!" The strong woman who was pulling the pirate's hair murmured.
"There's another Oriental...a decent Oriental, eh? Is that Jack Sparrow next to him? He still owes me eight shillings."
"Forget your damn shilling and damn Jack Sparrow! Man!" someone yelled: "Look at those gold coins! Damn, he's brighter than old Bernie's daughter's ass!"
"Huh? Have you seen it before?"
"Shut up! What are you waiting for? There is a big fat sheep here!"
"Kill them all and steal these gold coins! Today is our lucky day!"
"Oh ho!"
The mad dogs who finally reacted picked up the wine bottles, sharp knives and flintlock guns in their hands, and rushed over with a roar.
"Gentlemen, it's time to prove yourself!" Tang Sen stood on the spot and shouted, and Tom and his followers immediately drew their swords.
"Counterattack! Kill! Until these scum are terrified!"
Following Tang Sen's order, the two parties collided directly.
The sound of smashing wine bottles, the sound of gold and iron clashing, and the sound of gunshots mixed with roars and screams immediately filled the entire Old Bernie Tavern. Although the pirates were outnumbered, the followers were obviously not afraid. They were all elites.
It's no big deal that the elite in the army can fight one against three, what's more, they are no longer what they used to be.
Bullets penetrated their chests, and their expressions remained unchanged. The blades scratched their flesh and blood. They did not dodge or evade, but used the blood-stained swords in their hands to inflict pain and death on any pirate who dared to get close.
This is the first appearance of the undead army in this world. Obviously, the effect is good.
Only Jack Sparrow hurriedly avoided the pirates. Looking at Tang Sen, who was protected in place by his followers and was not affected by the battle at all, he shouted:
"Before you provoke them, at least prepare yourself a sword!"
"Oh, Captain Sparrow." Townsend spread his hands: "I don't think there is any difference between empty hands and holding a sword."
Although in his spare time while sailing, Tang Sen also asked Tom for advice on fencing, but unfortunately, this kind of thing requires years of practice and there is no quick fix.
What's more, my physique is much weaker than that of people of this era.
Tang Sen is a rational person. He will not imagine that if he learns some rudimentary swordsmanship, he can deal with any pirate by himself, even if the pirate lacks arms and legs.
As for the flintlock rifle... In order not to accidentally injure friendly troops, Tang Sen wisely decided to stay away from these things that relied entirely on experience to aim.
Let's leave the matter of killing to those who are good at it.
"Aren't you afraid of being shot by stray bullets? This is Tetu... No! Damn it, have you cursed yourself again?"
Jack Sparrow suddenly reacted halfway through his words.
"You're playing with a curse!"
"Rather than curses, what I need to worry about more is death." Tang Sen said casually: "Captain Sparrow, you'd better take care of yourself."
"I'm curious how many people will have to die before these pirates realize that no one can get their hands on my wealth."
The gold coins piled on the ground have been stained red with blood. In fact, there are not many pirates who are actually still fighting with their followers.
Only those who are so drunk that they only rely on their instincts, and those who are so greedy that they don't care about their lives, will not be able to see what is wrong with those who are at war with them. And those who notice, their drunkenness has long been driven away by fear.

"Stop...stop!" Someone shouted tremblingly: "Stop fighting! You can't kill them like this!"
"They are simply devils! Haven't you seen that their hearts have been pierced countless times?"
The two pirates who were still fighting were awakened by the shouts, and finally began to look at their opponents, and then with a clatter, the blades in their hands fell to the ground.
It's a pity that the followers obviously won't show mercy to the pirates. In their opinion, every one of these pirates is a damn scum. If the other party stops, they will not stop. They raise the knife and drop it, and the two pirates fall in a pool of blood.
Among.
Finally, Old Bernie’s Tavern became quiet again.
Only this time, the tavern is no longer filled with the smell of alcohol, but the smell of blood.
Da——da——
Tang Sen stepped on the blood-stained gold coins and walked out of the protective circle of his followers. Only then did the pirates realize that the oriental man's clothes were still decent and spotless.
However, their eyes, as if they were looking at fat sheep before, now all turned into fear.
"If anyone else wants to plunder these gold coins, I can give you a chance." Tang Sen's calm voice spread throughout the tavern.
His response was complete silence.
"It seems that all the brainless people are dead. I am very happy."
Tang Sen said unceremoniously: "Let me introduce myself. My surname is Tang and I come from the East."
"I have long heard that Tetuga is a colorful place. So far, I have not been disappointed here. I can fully feel your enthusiasm."
"Getting back to the subject, I want to recruit a group of people here, a group of people who are ruthless, ferocious enough, and willing to risk their lives."
Tang Sen glanced at all the pirates present and continued: "If any of you think you meet the requirements, you can come forward."
The pirates looked at each other, and a bold pirate raised his hand and said, "Tang, if you don't meet the requirements, can you leave now?"
"Stand up, I can't hear you." Tang Sen said expressionlessly.
"Okay...Okay." The pirate walked slowly to the empty midfield, and just as he was about to speak, a gunshot made everyone tremble.
Tom silently put down the flintlock gun that was still smoking, and the pirate's body fell to the ground.
"That's right, you understand me better and better, Tom." Tang Sen patted his shoulder with praise, then looked at the pirates, his face quickly cooled down.
"Don't get me wrong, the reason for killing him was not because he wanted to leave."
"Actually, I don't care whether you leave or not. Tertuga has thousands of pirates, enough for me to choose from."
"I just don't like rude people, especially scum like you, who are not qualified to call me by my last name."
The pirates immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at the Oriental, for fear of any behavior that the other party would consider impolite.
When facing the weak, they may kill without batting an eye, be cruel and ruthless, but the Easterner and his followers in front of them are obviously not weak, but unimaginable, immortal monsters.
