== Plot ==
The Crew face their greatest foes.
== Synopsis ==
The Armadillo is in a heated battle with a merchant ship called The Teresa. Mikey is not prepared for the fight and is cowering on the deck, promising the ship it’s gonna be okay. This does not faze Kifo or Sonney who are firing on the opposing vessel. Sonney jumps to the other ship and slam dunks an incendiary cannonball into the deck. The Teresa surrenders and her captain, Vic Hawklight, as well as five other survivors agree to join the crew. They grab the merchandise and sink the ship, sailing on to other deeds. Bennsyn and his merry band of misfits arrive at Huo port after walking for about three weeks. They plan to get a ship and head for Halcon, where Bennsyn is from. Three large ships sailing the Burgundy flag come into port. Bennsyn walks up to the “Captain” and introduces himself. The man gives him a ship and leaves, confusing him. He gets on the ship and finds a note from Tecnic and Mad Monty. He also finds Meshi, the guy watching the ship. He’s a character. Bennsyn names his Vessel the Daronna Rose and they set sail for Halcon. 
The Armadillo docks at Aarde port for the night. They get attacked by a smaller vessel but they are so intimidating the opposing men surrender almost immediately. The Daronna Rose docks at Gwynt port on Halcon and Bennsyn attempts to get whores but the longer he stays on the island the more he remembers why he left. Turns out, The Aventi are super mean to Bennsyn. The Armadillo leave the next morning and continue their adventure but they are pursued and inevitably caught by the Narwhal.
The crew braces for impact as the Narwhal slams into the side of the ship. Vulcan calls for a surrender but the crew is notoriously stubborn. Sonney swings across and knocks Vulcan into the ocean, preparing to fight on the deck. Dumu also crosses to Help the “Halfy”. Kifo decides to go directly for Vulcan so he dives in, Anchor in tow, and gets the captain in a bear grip. The begin to descend into the depths as the fighting continues above. Meanwhile, Bennsyn shoves Meshi in a barrel because all Aventi are bullies apparently. The firing continues between the ships with each side taking casualties. Though by the time the Narwhal lost thirty plus men, the Armadillo only lost four so it’s pretty even. Tecnic, realizing he isn’t needed in this fight, dives after the sinking duo. The crew of the Narwhal realize they severely misjudged the situation and begin to surrender. Vulcan passes out from the lack of oxygen around him so Kifo begins to swim back up with the man as Tecnic runs into them. The two share a look of understanding and return to the ship. Tecnic locks Vulcan in his quarters and they sink the narwhal, leaving the remaining men on board to enter the chain room and taking the figurehead as a trophy. 
The crew is pretty proud of themselves as they head towards Toke port, Vulcan in tow. Tecnic calls Sonney into his office and the two old swabs discuss what to do with the man that changed them forever. Tecnic mentions he is considering retiring now that they’ve finally won but Sonney talks him out of it. The Daronna Rose arrives at Toke port. Loyal goes to recruit more men while Bennsyn heads to the Classy Lassies to… “whore it up”. The Armadillo also arrives in port, though they don’t spot the exiled. Tecnic sends Kifo to tell Madame Temer that an execution at the port is imminent. Mad Monty is also there, being weird. Bennsyn spots Kifo and the two trade insults until Kifo asks Temer if the old “friends” can speak in private. She agrees for a fee and the two men enter a room, locked in and free to do their bidding. Kifo berates Bennsyn for his poor leadership and informs him that they’ve already finished one of the issues they have WITHOUT him but Bennsyn quips back and Kifo can’t comprehend that he is losing the argument with an exile so he swings at him with his anchor. Bennsyn draws his guns and they begin to duel. Mikey and a team of men brace the Narwhal’s figurehead to the Armadillo and a crowd starts to build. Kifo and Bennsyn are really going at it. It appears that Bennsyn wins and he starts to leave until Kifo stands back up, a bit paler, and Anchor’s down on the Aventi. The Darfellan stands over the carnage, considering what he’s done and before he finishes it, decides to head back to the port to watch the execution, after looting Bennsyn because plot. At the port, Vulcan is tied up in front of the spike and Tecnic gives Sonney the honor of speaking before the kill. Sonney gives a pretty decent speech before Tecnic steps over it, calling Sonney the new Eighth Pirate Lord. The crowd cheers but SGT is not cool with this and attempts to turn it back to Tecnic but cannon fire is heard as the Wailing Warden and six other ships arrive at port.
