Ahoy little matey! Ready to beat up some sailors?
Barbanegra is a well known pirate in the 7 seas for his great amount of adventures and the treasures he has been getting in each one of them. Every self-respecting pirate wants to be like him, even to a point that one day, when he woke up, he discovered that his crew was trying to sabotage him and take away all his treasures. Barbanegra can’t allow this! Help him get rid of all those traitors and turn the sea in blood, ARR!
