Gold Hook Jack couldn't pinpoint Tristan's location, but he could feel his gaze. It was the gaze of a predator eyeing its prey.
Jack felt insulted, his face turning crimson. Without looking back, he made a beeline for the Black Whale.
A wise man knows when to retreat.
With no lackeys to stall Tristan, Jack knew the outsider would have the freedom to attack him again. He wasn't stupid enough to stick around and take a beating.
And even if he was going to die, he'd rather perish on his own ship! A pirate ship can't lose its captain, just like in the West...
Seeing Jack's flustered back, Tristan remained calm.
In his previous life, he'd gone toe-to-toe with Damien Arrow in a one-for-one exchange. He'd experienced far more intense battles than this. How could such a fight possibly throw him off course?
