A month later, Andre came in person to tell Lynn that all the boats were ready.
Linn informed his crew and came to the shipyard the next day.
Two fourth-level battleships were docked in the most conspicuous position. The towering hull and shiny oak had obviously just been meticulously maintained. Two rows of dark cannon windows had been opened, and the cannons were pushed out one by one.
Two ships and one hundred and eight cannons are distributed on both sides of the hull. There is no doubt that it can destroy most of the ships here with just one salvo.
Regardless of size or firepower, the fourth-level battleship is obviously a level higher than other pirate ships around it.
This is not an exaggeration.
Most of the people in the Andre Shipyard were pirates, and among the pirates it was rare to have a big ship, and the only artillery pieces in the sky were 6-pound or 9-pound guns.
Take the prestigious "Sea Pearl" as an example. Apart from its legendary "magic properties", it has one and a half gun decks and half an open-air deck, which can barely be regarded as two gun decks.
Equipped with an incredible 32 18-pound cannons, it has far more firepower than ordinary pirate ships.
But according to firepower standards, it is only a fifth-level cruiser and cannot be ranked among the first four-level battleships.
The "crew" around Linn were almost drooling when they looked at these two brand-new warships, and they seemed to like them even more than Linn did.
After all, for them, as long as they can get one of them, they can become a big pirate.
They looked at Linn with even more eager eyes, wishing that he would give the order to set sail now.
As long as they go to sea, this trip is enough for many of them to have food and clothing for a lifetime.
In addition to these two battleships, there are also five merchant ships. Linn does not have high requirements for them, but it seems that Andre has really put in the effort, and the condition of these five ships is also very good.
Linn delivered the remaining gold with satisfaction, and his crew began to board the ship happily.
They showed a high degree of autonomy and enthusiasm in order to set sail as soon as possible. Under the arrangements of six captains and seven first mates, they quickly formed a gun crew, recommended gunners, and arranged squads.
It was ready in less than a day.
Lynn was very satisfied with their speed.
After loading a month's worth of daily necessities onto the ship the next day, Yang Fan was ordered to leave the port.
The crew cheered enthusiastically, as happy as if they had picked up money.
In one afternoon, the fleet had sailed into the deep sea. After nightfall, the ship, which should have been quiet, was bustling with activity.
Countless crew members brought rum from the warehouse and served fresh meat and vegetables. They drank and celebrated as if they had just won a battle.
On the flagship at the forefront of the fleet, hundreds of relaxed-looking crew members rushed to the captain's cabin with scimitars.
In their view, everything is a foregone conclusion.
Lin En, who was in the captain's cabin, was slowly eating the dinner he took out from the space because there was no crew member to bring it to him.
Opposite him stood Captain Jack Sparrow with a depressed look on his face.
"Jack, why are you here?" Linn looked confused.
Jack was so depressed that he just wanted to vomit blood. Why am I here? Of course I am here to save you! The pirates outside have started celebrating, and you are still eating here?
"If you don't want to feed the fish, I have prepared a boat that can take us away. Although we will lose these boats, at least you can still live."
"Hahaha," Linn laughed, "Okay, thank you for your kindness. But I believe in my crew. They are all good kids and will not do such horrible things."
Good kids? A bunch of pirates?
Jack had nothing to say.
He asked himself that even if he met a fat sheep like Lin En, he might not be able to control himself.
I can't help but wonder if Lynn really only has muscles and no brains.
Couldn't he hear the sounds outside?
Huh? No!
There seems to be no sound outside!
Jack raised his ears and listened carefully for a while, and his face gradually became uncomfortable. There was silence outside, and even the accustomed sound of the waves disappeared.
The noise just now seemed like a dream, and suddenly it became dead silence...
It was as if there was some kind of monster in the fleet that swallowed up all the lives on the fleet in the blink of an eye.
Jack couldn't help but shudder. Except for the captain's cabin, the outside seemed to have turned into the deepest bottomless abyss.
He quickly walked to the table, picked up a bottle of rum and poured it into his mouth.
The golden rum was of excellent quality. He drank half the bottle in one go. The mellow and caramel-scented wine slid into his stomach. The strong smell of alcohol surged up, irritating him and turning his face red. He couldn't help but take a sip. Wine burps.
"Don't just drink, I also have good steaks and roasted golden pigeons here. If you don't like these, there are also fresh fruits. These things are treasures at sea."
Linn pushed the food in front of Jack with a happy face.
Jack didn't dare to look out the window at all. Even though his whole body was hot under the stimulation of alcohol, hearing the deathly silence outside still made him feel chilly.
He sneaked onto the ship secretly just so that he might be able to save Lin En's life at the critical moment and repay him for rescuing him from the desert island.
But looking at Lin En, who was smiling in front of him, and it was as quiet as death outside, an inexplicable sense of dissonance made him feel abnormal in his heart.
"You know they want to seize the ship?"
"I know!" Linn nodded matter-of-factly, "I recruited 1,223 crew members, and 1,098 people got on the ship. Those who didn't get on the ship either died or decided to give up after understanding the situation."
"Ninety-nine percent of the people on the ship are pirates. They even discuss things openly and don't shy away from people at all. Of course I know it very well."
Seeing the seriousness of what Lynn said, Jack was confused when he heard it.
Since you know they are all pirates, why do you still recruit them? Why do you still let them board the ship and go to sea?
Jack is not a fool. After calming down, he keenly discovered the problem.
All the pirates in the entire Tatooga are planning on Lin En. He also knows very well that the crew members he recruits are pirates, but he still goes to sea in full swing.
If Linn is not a real fool, then there should be another explanation.
He has enough means to control these pirates, and these means are working right now!
But the entire fleet, with seven ships and more than a thousand people. Except for Linn, all of them are pirates. How can they suddenly calm down the people who were celebrating just now?
And it's not just ordinary silence, it's as quiet as death!
"But I believe they have regretted it and must be sincerely repenting at this moment."
Linn said with certainty.
But Jack couldn't believe this face with Eastern ancestry and an ignorant smile.
