THE GRAND STORY OF THE SEEMINGLY IMPOSSIBLE ADVENTURES OF BARON BRITPOP BLASTFURNACE
Returning Home / The Dreaded Pirate Garra
Baron Britpop Blastfurnace • Part 31
Returning Home
As we reached The Jellyfish, Delmore Boissonnaeu, the owner of the Elise, and Captain Sebastian Brun were waiting for us.
“I demand you take these men into custody. They are pirates, and raided my ship,” Boissonnaeu loudly stated.
“I simply imposed a Caribbean passage tax on Monsieur Boissonnaeu. The good people of the Caribbean deserve something for allowing merchants the use their waters for trade. Wouldn’t you agree, Francois?”
“It sounds reasonable to me,” one of the soldiers said.
“And would you concur, Jean-Paul?”
“Oui. It seems only fair,” the other soldier said.
“This is an outrage. I demand to see your superior,” Boissonnaeu snapped.
“He is due to return in two weeks. Perhaps you would like to wait in one of our cells,” Francois replied.
“Where has Raynard gone off to this time?” Captain Peanut Butter asked the soldier.
