Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

Hundreds of people looked towards Jack and drew their weapons.

A cold light flashed..

Jack turned around swiftly. It seemed that this time he didn't even have to go to the deserted island. He could report directly to David Jones.

"Well, Master Depp, it would be my honor to be of service to you."

...

Island of the Dead

Before coming here, Roddy didn't think that there was anything interesting about an island just where Barbossa's gold, silver and jewels were buried for many years.

He just stopped by here to take the Aztec gold coins away.

But that's different now.

As soon as he entered the island, Rody felt something was amiss.

He discovered this after entering the island.

The island contains a lot of dead air.

If Rody were asked to describe it specifically, it would probably be similar to the aura of Cursed Blue Rody.

In other words...there must be something unusual here, but unfortunately Roddy can't tell what it is now.

Just as he was holding his chin with a frown, thinking whether he should stay here for a few more days and dig three feet into the ground to dig up the stone mountain and have a look.

Barbossa came over cautiously and spoke in a low voice.

"Captain, we can't drive the ship in here directly. We can only go in by boat by docking."

"Don't bother with that. You can come with me, and the others can just stay on the boat."

...

Arriving at the destination.

The thought that all the wealth he had accumulated over the past ten years might be taken away by Roddy made him feel uncomfortable.

The corner of Barbossa's mouth twitched involuntarily. Not only him, but the other pirates were also in noticeably lower moods.

However, the shock given by Rody was too strong, and coupled with the incident in Royal Port, Rody directly used the dragon spell to burn several blind skeleton pirates into ashes.

After that, those unlucky guys never showed up again, and there was no sign of resurrection.

This means that the curse on them is not unsolvable. All we need to do is grind their bones and spread ashes.

But now the last Aztec gold coin is in Rody's hands. How could Barbossa be willing to die like this?

You can earn money again if you lose it, but if a person dies, it’s all over.

Barbossa didn't want to go to hell so early. He was still looking forward to Rody's promise to restore his youth and grant him eternal life.

...

It seems that Barbosa is still so aware of the current situation.

Rody nodded with satisfaction, even though it was very mentally draining to keep up the Legilimency spell all the time.

However, he has a talent bonus, so this consumption is barely equal to the recovery speed, which is acceptable.

As he walked down the stairs, Rody glanced at the taciturn Barbossa and said something comforting.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in money at all. I just want Aztec gold coins."

Barbosa heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.

Those pirates with pointed ears also smiled, as long as their vitals were not touched.

Then Barbossa glanced at Jack, who was appointed as the helmsman by Roddy, and narrowed his eyes.

Determined not to let Jack have an easy time.

He came closer to Rody and said.

"Captain, I don't think we can leave Jack on board, otherwise he will probably just drive the Black Pearl away. This guy has too many evil intentions."

This is pure bullshit.

No matter how smart Jack is, no matter how many ideas he has, he would not dare to joke with his own life, not to mention there are so many pirates around.

"you sure?"

Rody raised his eyebrows and looked at Barbossa deeply.

You little bastard, are you going to play the role of Zhen Huan in front of me?

Reaching out and grabbing Barbosa by the collar, Roddy took off on the spot and rushed into the cave with Barbosa.

Barbosa has been through a lot in his life.

But it was the first time for a young lady to get into a sedan chair, and her cries were sometimes gentle and sometimes as sad as a cuckoo crying blood.

On the boat, Jack waved his hat in the direction of Barbossa, smiling in a filthy but happy way.

...

Enter the cave and stretch out.

The air became increasingly humid...but there was an unexpected warmth mixed in.

The unpleasant smell made Rody frown. These pirates really don't care about hygiene. This stinky smell...

Looking at Barbossa who was covering his eyes and unexpectedly found himself afraid of heights, Rody scolded him angrily: "Stop shouting. As a pirate for so many years, you must have climbed the mast before, right? Why are you afraid of such a low height?"

"Huh...Huh...That's different, sir." Barbossa retorted while panting: "I'm not afraid of heights, it's just that your movements are too rough."

"Shut up!"

Go around the corner.

A golden mountain made up of various treasures suddenly appeared in front of Rody.

Even though he had no interest in money, money was just paper...not the stunning mountain of gold in front of him. Rody's eyes reflected a golden color.

Inadvertently, he let go of Barbosa's hand in shock.

Barbossa let out a scream and fell face first to the ground.

Fortunately, he had a curse on him so he didn't feel any pain, and he wouldn't break his neck due to the wrong height or landing posture.

Roddy realized his mistake, coughed embarrassedly, landed and stepped on Barbosa's butt.

"Hmm... kind of interesting."

Just as Rody set his eyes on the sarcophagus on the Golden Mountain, he felt a strange feeling.

It made his hair stand on end...

Roddy was certain of his thoughts. This thing must be more than just a place to store gold coins!

Chapter 156 Jack the Clown Sparrow

"Captain... could you please move your feet a little?"

Island of the Dead

Rody brought Barbossa in to collect the Aztec gold coins, and unexpectedly discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with the sarcophagus containing the gold coins.

As he was stroking his chin and observing, he heard Barbossa's muffled voice beneath him.

After moving away, Barbossa was finally able to stand up. He brushed off the dust on his body, touched the big dent on his nose helplessly, and looked at Rody with resentment.

How could he face those bastards on the Black Pearl, especially Jack Sparrow, who would surely laugh at him?

Damn, it goes without saying that Barbossa knows that bastard Jack Sparrow better than anyone.

"Where did you find this sarcophagus?"

Ignoring Barbossa's resentful look, Rody asked about the origin of the sarcophagus and jumped to the top of the golden mountain.

Compared to him, Barbossa was much more miserable. He could only climb up the gold mountain carefully and follow Rody to look at the Aztec gold coins inside that carried his ten years of pain.

His expression was complicated...he would have to endure five more years of pain.

"This sarcophagus was already here when we discovered the island," Barbossa answered truthfully.

“There’s magic in this.”

Roddy is a magician after all, and a man who possesses the memories of two great wizards, Old Dumbledore and Zhu Lan, so he is very sensitive to the flow of magic power.

He carefully stroked the sarcophagus in front of him and could feel a strong magical power flowing through it. This magical power was completely the same as the small amount of magic contained in the Aztec gold coin he had obtained.

If his senses were correct, it meant that the gold coins were not the key to the curse.

What really caused Barbossa and his group of pirates on the Black Pearl so much pain was actually this sarcophagus, and the gold coins were merely the medium for spreading the curse.

"Captain, have you found anything?"

Barbossa looked at the young wizard beside him cautiously and asked with some expectation.

"Your curse may have something to do with this sarcophagus. The gold coins can only be regarded as the carrier of the curse, and the main body...maybe this sarcophagus." Rody touched his chin and stated his speculation directly without hiding anything.

"what do you mean!"

Barbossa was definitely not a fool. He could easily understand Rody's words. A hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "Then if we destroy this sarcophagus directly, can we lift the curse?"

"No, it may also turn into a pool of pus."

Rody glanced at Barbossa with a half-smile and made a gesture of invitation: "If you want to try to destroy it, I don't mind."

"Gudu..."

Barbossa swallowed his saliva. Seeing that Rody didn't look like he was joking with him, he smiled and waved his hands: "Forget it, sir. It's better for me to keep my old bones to serve you."

"Hmph..." Roddy sneered, "As an ordinary person, if you are infected with these things, don't always think that violent destruction can lift the curse. You may die a more miserable death. How do you know that the person who set the curse didn't think about what would happen if the sarcophagus was destroyed?"

“There are only two outcomes.”

"Either you will die with the curse, or you will forever turn into skeletons, wandering half-dead in this world, until your will is eroded by time and you become a walking corpse."

Just like the eight demons, immortality is actually the greatest torture.
