Chapter 242 Beckett's Hunt! Ghost fleet!

Three months later.

Outside a seaside chapel in the Caribbean town of Royal Harbour.

The palm tree bent down in the strong wind, and the rain soaked all the preparations for the wedding ceremony that will be held today.

The bride, Elizabeth Swann, dressed in a drenched wedding dress, knelt on the ground, her tears mixed with rain.

On weekends, she was an empty altar, an overturned chair..., except for the bridegroom.

The young woman slowly stood up, walked into the chapel, held her head in her hands, and waited quietly.

The sound of getting closer and closer made Elizabeth look up, and through her tears, she saw a man in uniform walking into the church.

A team of sailors followed behind the man, who was dragging a prisoner.

What shocked Elizabeth was that the prisoner was her bridegroom-Will Turner.

"Will!" Elizabeth cried out, "what's the matter?"

Will struggled to get closer to her: "I don't know." He looked at Elizabeth's ruined white silk skirt and said sadly.

Will was caught by a group of sailors early in the morning. They smashed open the door of the smithy and shackled him.

It seems that he is unmarried today, anyway, waiting for his future wife Elizabeth Will has long been accustomed to.

As early as when Will was ten years old, Elizabeth and her father, the Governor of the Royal Harbour, found him wandering on the sea.

Since then, Will has fallen in love with Elizabeth.

For so many years, he has been waiting patiently, hoping that Elizabeth will eventually fall in love with him.

Later, Elizabeth really fell in love with him.

Unfortunately, they seem to be separated again.

But even now, with Will standing there, his body heavily chained, he still couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, and said softly: "He looks so beautiful!"

Elizabeth smiled: "You know, if the groom sees the bride before the wedding, it is very unlucky."

"That's all to blame for these uninvited guests." He said, nodding to the group of sailors in red uniforms surrounding them.

Their tenderness was interrupted by a command, it was Elizabeth's father.

"You! The person who ordered you to withdraw quickly, and immediately remove these shackles." The governor ordered.

The head of the arresting force did not move. He replied: "Governor Swan, I'm sorry to come uninvited."

Governor Swann took a close look at the man's face, and finally he asked, "Cutler Beckett?"

"Actually, it's the Lord now," Beckett replied.

"Regardless of whether it is a prince or not, he has no reason and no right to arrest this person."

"Actually, I do have power, Mr. Mercer?" he said to a plain-looking man standing far away.

Mercer opened a large briefcase and handed several documents to Beckett.

Beckett solemnly read out the documents recently appointed by the Royal Commission to be responsible for trade and protection of the Antilles.

Then he produced an arrest warrant for a man named Will Turner.

Governor Swann looked at the arrest warrant, but it was not an order to arrest Will: "I want to arrest Elizabeth Swann!" he exclaimed.

"Really?" Beckett asked. "What a weird mistake I made."

"Grab her." He ordered suddenly.

The soldiers grabbed Elizabeth. "For what crime?" Elizabeth asked.

Beckett ignored her.

He flipped through it. "Aha." He held up another document and said, "This one is for Mr. Will Turner. I have another one for James Norrington. Do you know where he is? ?"

"Brigadier Norrington resigned from his public office a few months ago." Governor Swann replied quickly. "We haven't seen him since then."

Elizabeth gritted her teeth. Although she had never loved him, she had been married to Norrington.

She suddenly found that all she was thinking about was all her experiences with Will.

Elizabeth was kidnapped by Barbosa and his men. In order to save Elizabeth from the cursed pirate, Will gave his own blood, albeit with the help of the Chinese pirate named Chen Feng.

Before this unexpected episode, Elizabeth had promised to marry Norrington. After all the dust settled, she had to honor the marriage contract for her father.

But she still couldn't resist the throbbing in her heart, and chose to follow her own heart on the day Will rushed into the hanging ground.

The beauty recovered and lost, and failed to reach the grudge between Jack and Barbosa personally. Norrington, who became increasingly dissatisfied with own, finally resigned from the official position and left the Royal Harbour in disgrace.

"We are British subjects under the jurisdiction of the Governor of the Royal Harbour King. We have the right to know why we have been accused." Elizabeth returned to reality and said bravely.

Beckett looked at his prisoners, and when he spoke again, he announced in a cheerful voice, "The charge is for having a close relationship with a certain death row prisoner. Unfortunately, the punishment for this is also the death penalty. They must remember a name called the death penalty. ...I think it's a pirate named Chen Feng, right?"

Will and Elizabeth glanced at each other, and they said together, "It's Captain Chen Feng."

"Yes, I know you will remember." Beckett said satisfied, and motioned to his men to drag the two prisoners away.

......

The moon hung high on the dark sea, and the soft sound of the sea—whooping wind, the gentle waves and the creaking ropes made the night immersed in a gloomy symphony.

A flock of crows fell on the high wall of a stone prison overlooking all of this.

The snoring, groaning, and squeaking of the prisoners made Moonlight even more mysterious.

Two guards dragged a prisoner in through the stone staircase entrance of the tower, which was obviously the way into the prison.

As many unfortunate prisoners will soon know, there is another way to get out of prison.

Several more guards carried six coffins and walked towards the prison wall by the sea.

After a quick conviction, they pushed the coffin down from the wall one by one and let them fall vertically, splashing into the greedy sea below.

The coffins floated to the surface, and the waves began to lift them up, like a fleet of ghosts.

Two of the pine coffins were submerged deeper than the other four, and began to sink slowly into the black sea.

One of the crows flew down from the prison wall and landed on a coffin.

Tuk tuk, tuk tuk.

It began to knock on the coffin.

Tuk tuk-tuk tuk.

The endless voice echoed in the hazy night.

At this moment, the person in the coffin chosen by the crow responded.

Tuk Tuk Tuk-Tuk, suddenly a bullet shot from the coffin, blowing the bird into a ball of feathers.

An arm stretched out from the hole just punched!
