The so-called harpoon is a special harpoon used when hunting whales.
The barbed head can penetrate the whale's body and get stuck firmly, while the rope tied to the tail end is connected to the ship, making it impossible for the whale to dive down to the bottom of the sea to escape the whaling ship.
Normally, a whale hit by a harpoon will swim quickly and try to dive, dragging a whaling ship or small boat to move quickly on the sea surface.
However, the whale's own diving ability cannot drag small boats or whaling ships on the sea to the bottom of the sea. Therefore, after exhausting its energy by swimming quickly, the whale will surface for air.
At this time, whalers will swarm up and lift the whales that have lost their ability to resist to whalers for slaughter in order to obtain valuable blubber, baleen and whale brains. As for the less valuable meat and bones, except for
Some are left to be eaten, but most are thrown back into the sea.
In the early whaling activities, the harpoon was thrown by the whalers' bare hands, so most of the whalers were strong men with amazing arm strength.
After all, it is not something that ordinary people can do to throw a harpoon that is not light enough for tens of meters.
However, this obviously could not meet the needs of high-efficiency whaling, so whaling guns were developed.
This is a whaling tool that uses explosions to push the harpoon. The whaling efficiency is much higher than throwing the harpoon with bare hands, and the physical fitness of the crew is not so high.
In particular, the whaling harpoon propelled by gunpowder flies much faster than human throwing, and can hit whales more accurately.
In addition, the range of the whaling cannon is much further than that of human throwing. Whalers do not need to risk their lives to get close to the whale and then throw the harpoon, so this kind of whaling cannon quickly became popular.
After the steamship was invented, it evolved into the steam-driven pneumatic harpoon, which was more powerful and more effective.
However, these are obviously only tools used to hunt whales. Compared with the large harpoon on the bow of the Royal Happiness that looks like a Tsarist cannon, it is the difference between a toothpick and a battering ram.
When Bartholomew was still galloping on the sea, this harpoon was specially used by him to capture prey. As long as it hit an enemy ship, he could use the huge harpoon to fix the enemy ship and then drag it towards
Own.
Bartholomew has done this kind of thing many times. Every time he uses this harpoon, it means that another prey has been captured by him.
This time, he believed it would be no exception.
"Bang!" The huge whaling cannon made a sound like thunder. Driven by the explosion, the huge three-edged whaling harpoon flew out of the cannon and plunged towards the Blood Sail.
The huge whaling harpoon has a three-edged pointed cone, which is full of inverted teeth and three expandable tail hooks. It is conceivable that once it hits, no ship can escape unless it can tear the hull apart.
The lock of a huge harpoon.
However, to Chen Mo, this whale harpoon only looked handsome and ferocious, but in fact it could not pose any threat to the Blood Sail.
A shield appeared out of thin air, blocking directly in front of the huge harpoon, covering the Blood Sail like a sky curtain, preventing the harpoon from hitting the Blood Sail's hull.
But I have to say that this is Bartholomew's trump card. Even the Blood Sail's shield was almost destroyed by this blow. One can only imagine how powerful this huge whaling cannon is.
"Very strong! It's really good. It seems that I have to come up with something real." Chen Mo came to the steering wheel of the Blood Sail and rang the navigation bell hanging beside it.
The crisp bells resounded throughout the sea, sounding like they were ringing in everyone's ears. Along with the bells, there were songs echoing on the sea, and the Blood Sail also followed the bells.
Suddenly stopped.
Only this time, fog did not rise from the sea. Instead, under the Bloodsail's hull, the water began to churn continuously, as if something big was about to rise from under the sea.
"What is he doing?" Barbossa noticed all this through the telescope, which made him confused.
The Blood Sail obviously has an advantage. As long as it keeps leading the Royal Happiness in speed, it can use its speed advantage to smash the Royal Happiness into pieces bit by bit.
But Chen Mo suddenly stopped. It was like a tortoise and a hare racing, and the hare suddenly started to sleep, completely giving up his advantage.
At this moment, a huge shadow suddenly appeared under the Blood Sail's hull.
If you can look down from the mast of the Blood Sail, you can clearly see a huge black figure stretching its huge body under the sea.
When the Blood Sail stopped, the Royal Happiness would not let go of such an opportunity. While recovering the huge harpoon, it turned sideways and bombarded the Blood Sail with a large number of naval guns.
However, the Blood Sail still stayed in place motionless, letting the cannonballs continue to fall around it, causing a large amount of waves to splash.
Occasionally, a few shells would be lucky enough to hit the Bloodsail, but they would all be bounced away by the layer of red light that enveloped the ship, just like the whale harpoon was bounced off just now.
However, the Blood Sail was not really being passively beaten. These shellings seemed to have angered the black shadow under the sea, and its speed of stretching its body was obviously accelerated.
A black shadow extending like a tentacle directly broke through the sea surface and stretched out from under the sea surface.
It was a huge head, just as big as half a black pearl, and behind the head was a slender neck.
The head has the shape of a snake's head, and its neck is wrapped in thick scales. On the top of the snake's head, there are four sharp horns growing back, making it look a bit like a dragon.
As this head rose, the other eight heads of this behemoth also stretched out from under the sea one after another, surrounding the Blood Sail, and all let out a shocking roar.
"This is...Hydra?" Everyone on the Black Pearl was completely shocked.
Everyone has seen Davy Jones' Kraken, which is already an extremely astonishing ocean beast, but no one expected that Chen Mo would actually call out something so much more terrifying than the Kraken.
Jack Sparrow, who had seen Kraken, couldn't help but compare the two and found that Kraken might only be as big as one of the heads of the nine-headed sea monster in front of him.
After this huge sea monster stretched all nine of its heads out of the sea and let out a roar, they all looked at the Royal Happiness.
Then, nine huge snake heads slammed into the Royal Happiness, as if nine long whips were whipping it!
