After the great battle concluded and the pirate ships had vanished without a trace, the warships in the harbor slowly set out to "hunt down the remnants of the pirates" on the sea.
The lucky Powell, just fetched from the seawater, hadn't even opened his mouth when he heard:
"The captain has caught one of the pirate remnants, this person actually tried to pass through by disguising himself in Church military uniform. Such a vicious pirate should be hanged immediately!"
Regaining his senses, Powell hurriedly shouted:
"No!
I am not a pirate!
I am not a pirate!
..."
However, due to his exhaustion, he couldn't escape the shackles on his wrists, and his shouting only resulted in receiving a few heavy slaps.
The leader among the aristocratic military officers, while smacking Powell, disdainfully said, "Every pirate captured always claims they are not a pirate.
Such a little trick, and you expect to fool people.
