After sailing for 21 days, Zhang Heng could feel that they were getting closer and closer to their target. A few days ago, a pirate ship attempted to plunder the Goddess' Spear. Unfortunately, the pirates were defeated, and the Goddess' Spear managed to seize all their weapons. It was going to be hard for the Jackdaw to loot their ship since they were now more robust. After a short exchange of fire, both parties sustained some damage on their boat. In the end, the pirate ship was forced to flee the Goddess' Spear when their secondary mast was destroyed. Once again, the Goddess' Spear managed to survive yet another battle against pirates.
After that, the Jackdaw crossed paths with the pirate ship that fought the Goddess' Spear. Billy knew their helmsman, so, they were willing to tell the Jackdaw what they knew about the Goddess' Spear.
