"Key? What key?" Bartholomew lifted his legs forward, approaching the businessman step by step, and glanced at Donahue in the crowd, "You mean the copper key hanging around his neck?"

The copper key on the other party's neck didn't look conspicuous, but there was a standard mark on the simple and simple color, and this special double-wing mark was what surprised Donoghue.Donoghue did not answer with a sullen face, but frowned, staring closely at the key on the opponent's chest, with an attitude that any fool would know what was going on.

Donahue didn't speak, and Bartholomew was not angry, but just stared at the trembling businessman with cold eyes.

"Where did this key come from? What did you lock in the box? Where is that box?"

Basalomew knelt down and made eye contact with the white-haired businessman, just a casual glance, which made the white-haired businessman tremble and sweat profusely again, his pale face was hesitant to speak, and his expression struggled.If he hadn't been forced to, he didn't want to reveal the key to others at all. It was obviously hung on his chest with a rope and hidden in his clothes, but he didn't expect that something unexpected happened now——

Basalomeu immediately narrowed his eyes dangerously, and touched the short gun at his waist again with the palm of his hand. The metallic luster in the sun made his scalp tingle, and the white-haired businessman felt chills and had no other choice but to stumble. Baba said: "This, this, this key is Venetian silver, the key to the safe in the bank..."

"Bank of Venice? Safe?"

The Bank of Venice, established in Venice, Italy, a century and a half ago, is also the earliest bank in the world. Bartholomew and his party have naturally heard the name of the Bank of Venice, but it is a pity that they did not become pirates before they became pirates. There is no need to deal with the bank's status at all.

Because the business handled by the bank is all about gold coin exchange, gold coin storage, etc., among other things, these businesses are all related to gold coins, and they are a group of poor people who are even luxurious with silver coins, so naturally they have nothing to do with the bank. Missed.

Fortunately, the Bank of Venice is so famous that even hired workers and slaves who bury their heads in the fields every day know its name, so when the pirates around heard it, they immediately showed a look of sudden enlightenment, and many sailors had envy in their eyes color.

As for the safe, although they have never heard of it, they can roughly guess the purpose of the other party from the literal meaning. It must be a treasure chest—something that can be stored in the Bank of Venice. It must be a very valuable treasure!

Palu smacked the corner of his mouth, and looked away from the copper key with regret. The Bank of Venice is too far away, and the road is too dangerous. Even if he knows that the other party hides treasures there, he has no way to get them.

The safe of the Bank of Venice, as long as they have the key as a certificate, they can come in and out at will, open the safe of the bank and take out the contents.

Fortunately, these pirates were unable to go ashore and ran to Venice——

Seeing everyone's gaze back, the white-haired businessman wiped the sweat off his face and heaved a sigh of relief.

But then he thought of the other businessmen who were caught on the pirate ship like him behind him. People died for money and birds for food. All the money on these guys was robbed by pirates, but he had the key to the safe in his hand...

hiss……

This is a fortune enough for everyone to take risks. The white-haired businessman looked at the others vigilantly...

Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the key to the Bank of Venice safe box. Donohue licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes flickering. Now that key is still hidden in his medicine box. After the amnesty order comes out, the first thing he will do is to go to the Bank of Venice to redeem the key. Take the money out.

The pie that suddenly fell from the sky made Donoghue dizzy. He was in a good mood all day, and even his attitude towards Basha Luo Miao was much gentler than before, and he could even be called amiable. Bartholomew seemed to feel that he had guessed something, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

"From today onwards, we will separate here. Take a boat and go back to Pirate Island." Bartholomew took care of the businessmen, put them on the smallest sailboat, and let them leave the fleet. , turned around and dealt with the group of sailors who chose to stay on Pirate Island because of internal rebellion.

"No, Captain Bartholomew, don't drive us away! We were wrong last time, and this will never happen again!" Many old crew members looked at Bartholomew nervously, one of them Ming stepped forward a few steps and said excitedly.

Over the years, it's not that they don't know Bartholomew's character, but the money that Richard promised them can't stop them from being moved. Now that Richard has been killed, they don't have a penny. Get it, if you leave Captain Bartholomew at this time, you will be a fool!

"You sailed back to the pirate island safely. There is no problem at all with an average of one hundred and ten gold coins per person. Now that you have avenged the old captain Davis, you have no reason to stay in my fleet—if you don't leave , I will send you to the next isolated island." Barthalomew was obviously not as talkative as they imagined, and this time he rejected the other party's proposal without hesitation.

"Ship, Captain, this kind of thing really won't happen again, can't you give us a chance? We are just confused... You know, we are not here just because of Captain Davis Come, we really want to be your subordinates again!" The pirates around all looked at Basha Lomew eagerly.

It's really hard to find a humane captain like Bartholomew again on Pirate Island!They really don't want to give up this opportunity.

"Have you forgotten the rules in the Pirate Code?" Bartholomew folded his hands, leaned on the guardrail, squinted his eyes and said in a cold voice.

"We didn't run away at that time... We, we were all on the pirate island, and we didn't go to the Madagascar Islands at all." The other party eagerly argued: "What's more, we didn't intend to help Richard attack you at all, we just wanted to earn money. Some money, come back soon”

Article [-] of the Piracy Code, the one who flees will die!

But they were all raised on the pirate island, so how could it be considered a cold escape?Only by retreating and dodging at the critical moment of the battle can it be called running away!

But they just want to make more money, why no one understands?

"No! In my eyes, all of your actions are betrayal of your companions and running away. According to the law, you should be executed, but I know you will not be convinced, so I don't intend to execute you all - it's just my eyes. There is no sand in it, so you should leave the pirate group as soon as possible."
