Chapter 249 Elite Black Magic
Like all pirates of this era, Blackbeard Edward Teach was ambitious, fickle, treacherous, a venerator of strength, and a complete pragmatist. After witnessing your brutality against the Kraken, he betrayed Nassau without hesitation and acted as your guide.
He helped you contact his trusted associates in Nassau Harbor, causing some chaos there. Then, on October 1718, 10, you sailed aboard the Pluto and led your fleet straight into Nassau, blocking the entire port without encountering any significant resistance. When this massive, pitch-black warship appeared in the harbor and attempted to fire a cannon across the water, the pirates of Nassau trembled in fear. Even the most unruly pirate, Charles Vane, dared not utter a single sound.
Later, under Edward Teach's guidance, you detained Benjamin Hornigold, who was attempting to escape to Shipwreck City, and successfully persuaded him to surrender. This legendary pirate was a relatively moderate surrenderer. Historically, when Bermuda Governor Benjamin Bennett delivered the King's pardon to Nassau, he was the first to surrender.
Of course, there were some rebellious individuals who attempted to resist you, most of whom were from the various pirate lord factions within Shipwreck City. However, you didn't hold back. Diamond Man Sam Bellamy and Slippery Man Tuvale, two Devil Fruit users, effortlessly subdued these rebels. You then executed the five most vehemently resisting pirates. The vast majority of the pirates declared their allegiance to you and submitted to your command. Within just 24 hours, the entire city of Nassau was covered in the Pineapple Pirates' flag.
[From October 1718, 10, to January 12, 1719, during these two months, you used your political skills to consolidate the pirate forces in Nassau. Now, both the veteran privateer Captain Hornigold from the Anglo-Spanish War and the arrogant and crazy Charles Vane are your subordinates, and they are quite loyal.]
By this time, the pirates of Nassau already had a Pirate's Code, co-authored by Henry Morgan, the first Pirate King and later Governor of Jamaica, and Captain Bartholomew. The code consisted of over a thousand pages of parchment. It contained numerous rules and guidelines, such as how to banish someone. The code even provided instructions on what to do if you were banished. One section mentioned artifacts, such as Poseidon's Trident, which pirates were strictly prohibited from possessing because they were too powerful and dangerous.
Only the Pirate Emperor, also known as the King of the Pirate Guild, has the authority to summon the nine Pirate Kings and amend the Pirate Code. However, as the ruler of the seas in the One Piece world, you don't bother to care about that. Under your command, the pirates of Nassau must now follow your rules. For example, indiscriminate killing is strictly prohibited, any looted targets must be given leeway, and unwanted ships and cargo must be returned.
On February 1719, 2, after you had completed the consolidation of Nassau and completely taken control of it, you received a letter from Weatherby Swann in Port Royal. The letter first praised your control of Nassau and stated that he had applied to the British royal family for the title of Baron and the position of Governor of Guyana. All you had to do now was cede Nassau to the new Governor of the Bahamas, Woody Rogers.
Logically, you're not at a disadvantage. Guyana is a renowned land of water, rich in gold and diamonds. The courier from London was quite arrogant, urging you to begin the transfer. But you love nothing more than to say no to self-righteous people. You refused the courier's request without hesitation, tore up your letters of marque, and returned to piracy.
Bonus Map Special Commentary Mode: When you capture Nassau, you also completely change history. In the original story, Woody Rogers would have achieved control of Nassau with perfect tactics, but he fell into the hands of Charles Vane, who not only burned Rogers' fleet with fire but also looted the entire city of Nassau. But now Nassau is destined to no longer belong to Britain, and Charles Vane has become your loyal subordinate.

On March 1719, 3, upon hearing the news of your return to piracy, the entire Caribbean region was in uproar. Not only did you now stand in opposition to the nine pirate lords, but even the British Navy began to stir.
[However, in the eyes of many, you, having returned to piracy, are now considered the Pirate King. Since you possess the eight riyals of the Caspian Sea Pirate King, you should inherit the position of the Caspian Sea Pirate King.]
[March 1719, 3, after two and a half years as a trainee, even if you have no talent, you have finally learned his black magic from Cortez, and you can now prepare the powder for the weather Change.You have acquired the skill: Elite Black Magic (if you learn this skill, it will overwrite the original black magic skill)]
On March 1719, 3, you gave the British no face. You, stationed at Nassau with the Pluto, dispatched your fleet to the entire Bahamas. Shortly thereafter, the newly appointed Governor of the Bahamas, Woody Rogers, fled the islands by ship. With lightning speed, you seized control of the Bahamas. As you know from history, you know that in the future, this island will not only be a tourist paradise but also a center of international finance, known as the "Zurich of the Caribbean." The Bahamas ranks 9th out of 77 financial centers worldwide.
On May 1719, 5, your fleet encountered a British fleet north of the Bahamas. This was a fleet commanded by Commodore James Norrington. Their flagship, the HMS Dreadnought, was a legendary ship among Pirates of the Caribbean. With three decks of concealed holds and three decks of guns, its firepower was formidable, and it sank one of your steamships in a single encounter. However, facing your other two legendary ships, the Interceptor quickly fell into disarray. Under the combined attack of the HMS Silent Mary and the HMS Queen Anne's Avenger, the Interceptor held out for less than 4 minutes. After a barrage of bombardment, victory tipped your way. Ultimately, your capable subordinate, Diamond Man Sam Bellamy, defeated James Norrington in a deck battle and captured the HMS Dreadnought, the British Navy's greatest asset in the Caribbean.
[On May 1719, 5, this victory was quite a sensation. Then, according to the suggestion of the grandfather Cortes, after a little repair in Nassau, you took your fleet straight to Jamaica, the goal—— port royal.This is the "richest and most evil" city in the world in this era. As long as Port Royal can be occupied, the situation in the entire Caribbean will definitely change. 】
