Pirates: Davy Jones is the captain of the Dread Ghost

Chapter 144 Taking away the Flying Dutchman
Davy Jones knew about Vander Deken's fruit ability from Xiao Ba.

Xiao Hachi had known Vander Deken before and had a pretty good relationship with him. Naturally, he also knew about Vander Deken's Devil Fruit ability. He had told Captain Davy Jones about it once before.

As soon as Davy Jones saw Vander Deken's movement, he guessed what he was going to do.

It took him more than half a year to get to the vicinity of Fish-Man Island and retrieve the Flying Dutchman. Naturally, it was impossible for him to be taken away just like that.

With a click, Davy Jones broke Vander Deken's right hand.

Vander Deken was stunned, staring blankly at his hand that fell limply to the ground, as if it didn't belong to him, but the sharp pain that just flashed was real.

My arm was broken so easily?thought Vander Deken in horror.

Vander Deken raised his head and suddenly met Davy Jones' eyes, his eyes widening involuntarily.

"you……"

Davy Jones grabbed Vander Deken's collar, lifted him up, and swallowed the second half of his words.

After Vander Deken was mentioned, he originally wanted to choke Davy Jones a few words.

But as Davy Jones' tentacles crawled into his neck, wrapped around his throat and tightened like a noose, strange and terrifying hallucinations struck.

He seemed to see himself being swallowed by the sea water and suffocated to death.

This is the way to die that he fears most.

Vander Deken looked frightened and hesitated.

"What...what do you want...to do?"

Vander Deken's tone changed.

"We can make a deal." Davy Jones said straight to the point. "I want this ship in exchange for the two of you leaving alive."

Davy Jones finally considered Xiaoba's feelings, and after Xiaoba's plea, he decided to give Vander Deken a chance.

Vander Deken listened, but became angry in grievance.

How can exchanging my life for my own ship be called a deal?

What he didn't know was that Davy Jones's logic was that he could have snatched it directly without consulting him or sparing his and Mianjin's lives.

But Davy Jones is now willing to give Vander Decken, the former captain of the Flying Dutchman, a break.

"This……"

Vander Deken's anger only lasted for a while, and he finally hesitated.

After all, lives were at stake, and it was just a broken ship.

Davy Jones, however, did not wait for Vander Deken to reply. He directly grabbed Vander Deken's broken and limp right hand, lifted it up, and forcibly stretched it into the cold water outside the bubble.

Vander Decken was startled and shouted "No!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. His right hand had already been soaked in the sea water. The sea water washed away the memory of Princess White Star.

Only then did Davy Jones let go of his hand and tentacles.

Of course, he didn't know where Vander Deken's right hand would take the Flying Dutchman, he just wanted to completely cut off Vander Deken's escape route.

Seeing that the "tragedy" had happened, Vander Deken fell to the ground as if in mourning. Looking at his limp right hand, he sobbed and cried:

"My right hand, my Princess Shirahoshi..."

Princess White Star?Davy Jones thought.Both Hachi and Porchi have mentioned it several times, and she seems to be the mermaid princess of Fish-Man Island.

Davy Jones frowned. It seemed that Vander Deken's right hand was pointing at Princess White Star.

Is this the current captain of the Flying Dutchman?

Although this Flying Dutchman is not Davy Jones's original ship, you can tell it's not just by looking at its appearance.

But after all, they bear the same name, and it contains the power given by him and the goddess of the sea.

The captain of the Flying Dutchman turned out to be such a fish-man in front of him, which made Davy Jones feel quite unhappy.

He originally thought that Vander Decken, who owned the Flying Dutchman, would be an excellent captain of a deep-sea ship, but upon seeing him, he was disappointed and even deeply ashamed.

Not as good as Will Turner.

Before Vander Decken finished crying at Davy Jones's feet, Xiao Ba from the Terror Ghost swam over.

Seeing Vander Deken crying so sadly, Xiaoba scratched his head in surprise:
"Captain Davy Jones, what happened to him?"

Vander Deken suddenly stopped crying when he heard this.

First, he heard a name that had been in the newspapers so frequently that even he, a pirate exiled from Fish-Man Island, knew it - "Davy Jones". There was only one last name difference between him and the Hody Jones.

Vander Deken knew that the "Jones" of Hody Jones was actually taken from the "King of Hell" Davy Jones.

But every time he mentioned it, Hodi always said with disgust that the "King of Hell" in the newspaper must be a fake.

No matter how amazing Davy Jones was, Hody couldn't tolerate having that many humans on his crew.

It would be fine if those humans were slaves, but they weren't, and Hody couldn't accept this.

Not to mention, when he was young, Hody admired Aaron quite a lot.

When he learned that Aaron died at the hands of Davy Jones, he only had hatred for Davy Jones.However, these are not the focus for Vander Deken now.

The point is that this information all proves that Davy Jones is a monster he cannot afford to offend.

For a person who can defeat the "Shichibukai", killing him is not a problem at all.

Secondly, Vander Deken heard a voice that seemed to have been heard somewhere before.

He raised his head and stared at Xiaoba in front of him for a while, then he suddenly remembered Xiaoba's pouted octopus mouth and then Xiaoba's six arms.

"Xiao... Xiaoba?"

"Nu, it's me." Xiaoba walked up and tilted his head, "Why are you crying?"

"I……"

Vander Deken didn't know what to say for a moment. He looked at Davy Jones and then at Xiao Ba, and then he remembered what Hody had said to him later.

Hodi said that Hachi, the traitor of the "Aaron Pirates", defected to the Davy Jones Pirates and would kill him whenever he saw him in the future.

Looking at the situation in front of me, there is no doubt about it.

Xiaoba didn't care what Vander Deken was crying about, he just tried to persuade him:

"Captain Davy Jones just wants to fly the Dutchman. If you agree, you can meet Mianjin and leave. The captain will not embarrass you."

Davy Jones frowned in disgust, but did not change his commitment to Xiao Ba and Vander Deken.

Vander Deken's face changed as he lay on the ground.

It's easy to say, but it goes without saying how humiliating it means to abandon one's own pirate ship and give it to the enemy, especially when the ship is still an ancestral property.

At the same time, he was a little confused. What was there to rob in his dilapidated ship?

However, in the current situation, it was indeed not his turn to negotiate terms. If he should be cowardly, he should be cowardly.

Just one kulaken is enough for him.

Vander Deken's eyes rolled wildly, and seeing that there was no other way to survive, he finally surrendered and said:

"Well, I'll leave this ship to you, and you must keep your word."

"I always keep my promises."

Davy Jones turned around, walked to the wooden ladder, and climbed toward the second floor. His voice was heard in the distance.

"You can leave and don't come back. I don't want to see you again."

Seeing Davy Jones disappearing into the darkness, Vander Deken looked at Xiaoba hesitantly.

"Can I really go?"

"The captain said, you can leave after meeting Mianjin."

Vander Deken coughed, no longer hesitated, and immediately made a bubble cabin for himself, with no intention of reminiscing with Xiao Ba.

He was huddled in the bubble, holding a wooden stick in his left hand, extending out of the bubble like a rowing boat, paddling in the sea water.

In the bubble, he floated outside the Flying Dutchman.

He glanced at Kulaken and realized that the Kraken was really unmoved by him, so he rowed harder and evacuated quickly.

When Mianjin saw that Vander Deken was about to run away without taking him with him, he cried like a child:
"Captain Vander Deken, wait for me, and me."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he cried a few times, Kulaken let go of him, as if he had received some order.

Mianjin saw that he didn't care so much. After surviving the disaster, he immediately took huge steps in the sea, caught up with Vander Daken, and held up Vander Daken's bubble.

Seeing that he no longer had to paddle, Vander Decken shouted: "Let's go, let's go as far as possible."

"Yeah." Mianjin, who had suffered a lot, saw Vander Deken in the bubble and left.

After walking a certain distance, no one from the Davy Jones Pirates caught up with them, and Kurakken stayed where he was.

Vander Deken felt relieved.

At the same time, his thoughts changed rapidly and he couldn't help but look back at the Flying Dutchman.

Davy Jones wanted my ship so bad...

Could it be that there is something special about it?

Vander Daken couldn't help but think of the legend of Vander Daken I.

Maybe there really was something weird about this ship, but I hadn't noticed it before, and now it was snatched away by Davy Jones, who knew the goods.

Damn it, this is a boat that has been passed down from generation to generation!
Even if there is something magical about it, I should inherit it. How can I let an outsider like Davy Jones benefit from it?

Seeing that the Flying Dutchman and the Terror Ghost were getting farther and farther away, Vander Deken knew that he was out of danger, and he became increasingly angry.

He thought for a while and said to Mianjin:
"Quick, take me to Fishman Island. I want to see Hody Jones and tell him that there is a big deal here."

Mian Jinjian nodded, holding Bubble in his arms as if holding a treasure, and flew away, kicking up a burst of turbid dust.
