————————————————————————This extra chapter comes from passing by and grabbing a bottle of oil——————————————————

The sun was shining brightly at noon, and ships were constantly docking or leaving the port in the Orton Territory. This was the most prosperous area of ​​the eastern city-state, and it was also a gray area where order and chaos intertwined.
"Little Jacks did a good job. Now he finally looks like your father."
"I'm far behind." With a shy smile, the 16-year-old black-haired boy pressed his red tricorn hat with his left hand and held the rudder with his right hand. Then under the guidance of the lighthouse, he slowly sailed the smuggling cargo ship into the eastern city-state.
The most prosperous port city: the port in Oton Territory.
"Huh, the storm we encountered on the road was really bad." Laughing, a middle-aged man handed the bag containing heavy gold coins to the young man, "Well done, this is your share, it's delicious.
Just one meal, I’ll eat all the fish in the months on the boat.”
"Well, uncle, I'll see you later."
Jax Torre
The boy who lives in the Alton Territory, his parents are a well-known pirate couple in the world, and because he was born in a gray area like the Alton Territory and is not well known, he has not been disturbed by anyone since he was a child. However, several of his father's
His friends took good care of him, so he lived a comfortable life. His only regret was that he rarely saw his parents.
"Haha, your parents can't always be by your side, you understand." Handing the boy in front of him a cup of tea, the middle-aged man with a thick black beard laughed.
"They all give me gifts on my birthday. I'm already very happy." Drinking tea, he smiled and said, "Sachi, don't you bring me some wine?"
"You are just like your father, but don't get drunk." He took a bottle of rum and handed it to Jacks, he smiled.
Then, as if it was a joke, he took out an oil paper bag containing gunpowder.
"Want to add some more of this?"
"Cough cough cough." Jacks choked on the rum and shook his head quickly, "I'm not used to the smell of gunpowder."
Not only was he not used to it, Uncle Sachi's behavior had always been very weird. There was no way he would drink rum mixed with gunpowder, and the strong smell of gunpowder when he opened his mouth was simply unbearable.
However, Thatch can be said to have taken great care of Jacks and even taught him how to use a musket. After all, he was a close friend of his father. Under the influence of Thatch, Jacks even began to use four flintlock muskets.
"Hahahaha." Sachi suddenly laughed
"Uncle Sachi, I have saved enough money, have you left the wreckage for me?"
"Of course, kid, but are you sure? That ship is not big, even smaller than your father's Red Eagle."
"But she's fast enough." Jacks laughed.
A few months ago, Saatchi salvaged a sunken ship with a relatively complete hull frame from near Oton Territory. The reason seemed to be that it hit the rocks in a storm and sank. Naturally, there were no survivors, and Jacks was interested in its lower hull.
price.
Because it is incomplete, it cannot be sold as a boat, but if the repair costs are added up, it is not as affordable as buying a boat directly, but this is not a problem for Jacks.
Orton owns a shipyard he knows, and the cost can be lower.
With this mentality, he came to the shipyard early the next day and watched with his own eyes as his future ship was gradually repaired.
"Reinforce the hull frame, cover the hull armor with a metal shell, I want red sails, and fly a black flag!"
Because the entire shipyard is working together, we will probably be able to see the red bird in a few days.
Yes, that’s right, corresponding to his father’s Red Eagle, he named his ship Cardinal—alis
"Cardinal, that's a little bird."
"Although the cardinal is small, it is nimble." Jacks smiled softly and drank rum.
Remember that after some time, your parents will come back.
Unknowingly, his mind was wandering and he wondered what gifts they would bring me this time.
"Jax, focus."
"Of course." After coming back to his senses, Jacks put his right hand on the handle of the flintlock gun behind his waist.
Then he drew his gun
'boom'
One shot hit the humanoid gun target in the chest. Jakes turned around and pulled out a second gun.
'boom'
With the sound of the gun, the second gun target was also destroyed. When turning around, he discarded the two guns in his hand, and then pulled out the last two, all movements as smooth as flowing water.
'Bang, bang'
With the continuous gunshots, the last two gun targets were also shattered.
"Hahaha, it seems that our little Torre is a sharpshooter who is not inferior to his father." After Jacks took back the gun, Blackbeard Sachi walked over, "I will go to sea tomorrow, come here, give this to you.
"
He called a pirate over, then took a musket from the other man's hand and handed it to Jacks.
"This is... a musket?"
"Can you put a holster on your leather belt?" Blackbeard said with a smile.
"certainly."
While they were talking, a pirate hurriedly came to Blackbeard's side. With a slightly unhappy look in his eyes, he said something into Sage's ear.
Afterwards, he looked at Jacks with a more complicated look, but Jacks, who was in joy, did not notice it.
"Jacks, I'm going to take care of something first."
"Okay, bye uncle!"
After turning his back on Jacks, Blackbeard Sage's eyes became extremely gloomy, and then returned to the Queen Anne's Revenge, and he roared loudly.
"How could the Red Eagle sink? She is the most elite ship in the world! It is also equipped with various magic cannons! Its hull frame"
"But Captain, this news came from the elves of Bartlea. After the Red Eagle sank, they tried to salvage it, but no wreckage was found. It seemed like it had disappeared."
"What should I tell Jakes..." With a wry smile, Sachi looked at the blue sky, "Tore, you guy..."
This...maybe it will hurt Jax?
But Hai Erlang will eventually experience setbacks
Sachi said to himself this
"Jax."
In the backwater bar led by Orton, Blackbeard walked up to Jacks who was drinking rum.
"Uncle, are you here to supply me?"
"No..." Sachi took a deep breath, his voice was very depressed.
"I received the news this afternoon."
"The Red Eagle sank in the waters near Bartlea, and... no one survived."
‘Click’
The wooden wine glass fell to the ground, and black liquid spilled on the ground.
"What did you say?"
…
"Bring me some wine..."
"You've drunk enough." The flaxen-haired young man seemed to want to stop him. His left eye was covered by two white cloths. If you look closely, you can easily see the holes in it. He seemed to be a man with a story.
"I'll pay..." He slapped two gold coins on the table, his words a little unclear.
The Queen Anne's Revenge had already sailed, and Blackbeard was not here, so Robert had a headache.
"Okay, you can drink..." Handing the other person a bottle of rum, Robert sighed, and then he noticed some people in the tavern who looked at Jacks in a special way.
"Where are the outsiders..." He muttered and didn't care. He just watched Jacks stagger out of the tavern.
Then the foreign pirates also followed out, and with a ping-ping-pong-pong sound, silence returned to the outside of the tavern.
"Search the belongings of those idiots at the door." Robert sighed.
On the road, a disheveled young man in red clothes was walking towards his home, carrying a wine bottle. The blood of others could be vaguely seen on his cuffs, and inside the sleeves, a blade shining with cold light could be seen.
