But that's what happened.
James didn't ask what crime the boy committed, because he knew that even if he asked, he couldn't change the boy's fate.
He can't even control his own destiny, how can he control others'?
He looked away from the boy, hoping only that the execution would be over soon.
The little boy was carried by the executioner to a barrel so that his neck could be wrapped in the nooses of the gallows.
As the adjutant began to read their charges, the boy produced a silver coin and rubbed it in his hand.
He opened his mouth and slowly sang the pirate song Raise the Flag.
The sad melody echoed in everyone's heart, even James couldn't help but have a sore nose.
Lord Beckett, who was standing in the Governor's Mansion, listened to the pirate ship song, with an increasingly indifferent expression on his face.
"Report, my lord, these criminals have begun to sing." A guard rushed in to report.
Beckett said lightly, "I'm not deaf."
The guard looked embarrassed, "My lord, what should we do? Please give instructions!"
Beckett said lightly: "Didn't I hand over the execution of the death penalty to Commander-in-Chief James? Just let him handle it."
"However, Lord James doesn't seem to want to stop it. Now, all the criminals are singing in chorus!"
"Then, has the hanging ceased?"
"That's not true," replied the guard.
"There is no problem." Beckett said lightly, "After all the criminals have been executed, let Lord James come to see me."
"Yes!" The guard saluted, turned and left.
Hangings lasted from noon to night.
Batch after batch of unarmed "criminals" were led to the gallows, and then hanged on the gallows.
The car containing the corpses could no longer be loaded. The corpses, regardless of gender, age or age, were all piled up like garbage, waiting for their families to claim them or bury them together.
Throughout the execution process, James stood motionless like a puppet, not even saying a single word.
He wished he was really a puppet, but unfortunately, he wasn't.
He mechanically turned around and wanted to leave, but at this moment Beckett's guards ran up to him and repeated Beckett's order.
"Got it." James said hoarsely.
He didn't say a word all afternoon, but his vocal cords were hoarse as if he had roared countless times.
He took a step forward and walked towards the command post in Port Royal.
Not so long ago, that was his headquarters, but now, he's just a puppet doing the dirty work.
Chapter 456 Pirates Most Wanted List
"Commander James, my lord invites you to the banquet hall."
As soon as James walked to the door of the headquarters, the tall and thin guard standing guard saluted him.
James nodded, and was about to walk towards the banquet hall when the chubby guard next to him suddenly said, "Commander-in-Chief, we admire you for your feat of lurking in Tortuga Harbor to smash the pirate's conspiracy."
James frowned slightly.
He recognized that these two guards were his former subordinates, and these two subordinates were full-time guards, so when James went out to chase the Black Pearl, they were not on board, and of course they did not encounter a hurricane.
They really thought that everything was just acting, and they really thought that the official "truth" was the truth.
James gave a wry smile, and instead of responding to the two guards, he walked in directly and walked towards the banquet hall.
The tall, skinny guard said to the short, fat guard, "Look at you, you are making our commander-in-chief unhappy."
The short fat man curled his lips and said, "How could it be me? You must have started badly."
"Bah, I got off to a good start, it's clear that you're holding me back."
"Well, I still hope that I can get a part-time job by relying on my previous friendship with the commander-in-chief. It seems that we still have to continue to watch the gate."
"Actually, if you think about it, it's not bad to watch the gate, at least you don't have to be swallowed by the hurricane."
"Well, but, do you still remember Barbosa? When Barbosa was cursed, couldn't he bring pirate ships to attack our Port Royal?"
"Barbossa is cursed, those pirates are undead creatures, so they dare to attack Port Royal, but look, what other pirates dare to attack Port Royal now? Our Lord Belt has issued the strictest pirate The ban, according to this situation, will not take long, the pirates will not even be able to supply food and drink, and they will starve to death!"
"I'm afraid the pirates didn't starve to death, and more and more people rose up to rebel against Lord Beckett."
The two guards chattered about each other.
At this time, James has entered the restaurant.
"Aha!" Lord Beckett said with a smile: "Look who is coming, our battle hero, the glorious Commander-in-Chief, come here, James, thank you for making another great contribution to the eradication of pirates!"
The officers at the banquet stood up to toast James, while Governor Swan, who was sitting next to Lord Beckett, looked at James with a numb face.
I didn't kill pirates, I killed unarmed and innocent people!
James' heart ached to the extreme. He wanted to shout out, but he had to force a smile on his face, "Thank you Lord, this is what I should do."
To be a puppet, to be a dog's leg, one must have the consciousness to be a puppet and a dog's leg!
Beckett nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, Lord James, I will write a letter to Her Majesty the Queen overnight, telling her about your performance today."
He was obviously commending James, but in fact, he was showing off to everyone present that he could write directly to Her Majesty the Queen!
"Come on, hurry up and take a seat. This dinner is specially set up for you, of course, and is hosted by Governor Swann." Beckett laughed.
James quickly bowed to Governor Swan.
Governor Swann was expressionless.
James couldn't help feeling a pain in his heart.
Governor Swan hated him, not without reason.
In order to reinstate his post, James gave David Jones' heart to Beckett. With Davy Jones' heart, Beckett completely controlled the Flying Dutchman. This is what Beckett dared to announce in the Caribbean. The main reason for the strictest piracy order.
Therefore, the death of so many innocent people really has a great relationship with James.
