	Not too long after his capture, Adéwalé found himself chained alongside ~~the pirate~~ [[Edward Kenway]], who was also destined for Spain. Working together, the two were able to break free of their bonds and, after incapacitating a number of guards, procured themselves a ship, in the process freeing a number of likewise captured pirates who joined them.<ref name="Treasure Fleet">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' – [[The Treasure Fleet]]</ref>		Not too long after his capture, Adéwalé found himself chained alongside the pirate [[Edward Kenway]], who was also destined for Spain.

	Adéwalé chose a relatively small [[brig]] named ''[[Jackdaw\|El Dorado]]'' to make their escape, which was made all the more difficult by a sudden, powerful storm that struck the fleet. Ultimately, Adéwalé, Edward and the others managed to escape, while the remaining eleven ships in the fleet sank to the bottom of the sea.<ref name="Treasure Fleet" />		Adéwalé chose a relatively small [[brig]] named ''[[Jackdaw\|El Dorado]]'' to make their escape, which was made all the more difficult by a sudden, powerful storm that struck the fleet.

	Adéwalé was regarded as a legendary figure by many contemporary Assassins, with his actions greatly strengthening the West Indies and Colonial Brotherhoods during the early-to-mid 18th century.<ref name="Lessons and Revelations" /> He also became a key participant in the [[Maroon rebellion]], freeing hundreds of slaves and recruiting people to the Maroon cause against the [[French Army]].<ref name="FC">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' – ''[[Freedom Cry]]''</ref>		Adéwalé was regarded as a legendary figure by many contemporary Assassins, with his actions greatly strengthening the West Indies and Colonial Brotherhoods during the early-to-mid 18th century.<ref name="Lessons and Revelations" /> He also became a key participant in the [[Maroon rebellion]], freeing hundreds of slaves and recruiting people to the Maroon cause against the [[French Army]].<ref name="FC">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]'' – ''[[Freedom Cry]]''</ref>

	In his later life, Adéwalé became a figurehead of sorts for the Colonial Assassins, and his death at the hands of the Templars was a bitter blow to their morale. This undoubtedly weakened the resolve of his fellow Assassins in the colonies, and perhaps facilitated their [[Colonial Brotherhood purge\|destruction]] soon afterwards.<ref name="ACRG">''[[Assassin's Creed: Rogue]]''</ref> The Assassins would not regain a foothold in the colonies until the arrival of Edward's grandson, [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]], who managed to revive the Brotherhood and tip the scales in the Assassins' favor.<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>		In his later life, Adéwalé became a figurehead of sorts for the Colonial Assassins, and his death at the hands of the Templars was a bitter blow to their morale.

	In 1757, Adéwalé's son Babatunde had a son of his own, [[Eseosa]], who also joined the Assassins and became an influential participant in the [[Haitian Revolution]]. Being told stories about Adéwalé and his exploits, Eseosa would write several letters to his late grandfather, praying to his spirit to guide his path.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Initiates]]'' – [[Eseosa's Codex\|Letters to the Dead]]: "A Family Vow"</ref>		In 1757, Adéwalé's son Babatunde had a son of his own, [[Eseosa]], who also joined the Assassins and became an influential participant in the [[Haitian Revolution]].

	Though Adéwalé had chosen a life of piracy, he found that when serving under Edward, he lacked the conviction to partake in an industry of dishonest work. After being introduced to the Assassins and the failure of Nassau, Adéwalé was opened up to the wisdom and nobility of the Assassins. He found that the Creed promised a more noble cause than an aimless life of plunder, and consequently dedicated himself to the life of an Assassin, serving the Brotherhood dutifully.<ref name="AC4" />		Though Adéwalé had chosen a life of piracy, he found that when serving under Edward, he lacked the conviction to partake in an industry of dishonest work.

	Due to the harsh treatment he had experienced as a slave, Adéwalé notably spoke out against slavery and even lost his composure whenever the subject was brought up. He was unwilling to cooperate with Edward once he realized he was bartering with Laurens Prins, a known slaver. Moreover, he warned ~~Edward not to~~ fire at slave ships, worried about the lives below deck, and was appalled at how reckless Charles Vane was, firing blindly at a slave vessel. He also gave Governor de Fayet a slow and painful death, when the latter disregarded slaves as mere animals.<ref name="AC4" />		Due to the harsh treatment he had experienced as a slave, Adéwalé notably spoke out against slavery and even lost his composure whenever the subject was brought up.

	Despite having many disagreements with Edward over the latter's selfish actions, Adéwalé nonetheless held the captain in high regard, even towards the end of his life. He managed to convince Edward to turn to the Assassins as a way to amend his mistakes.<ref name="AC4" /> When confronting Edward's son, Haytham Kenway, Adéwalé expressed disappointment in Haytham for becoming a Templar, and likewise mentioned that Edward would have felt the same.<ref name="Bravado" />		Despite having many disagreements with Edward over the latter's selfish actions, Adéwalé nonetheless held the captain in high regard, even towards the end of his life.

	With the help of James Kidd, Adéwalé eventually managed to overpower Rackham and retake control of the ''Jackdaw'', sailing back to Edward's hideout at [[Great Inagua]].

	After Edward managed to find Roberts and secure a partnership with him, Adéwalé became distrustful of his captain's new associate.
