==Description==
==Description==
After having captured the ''[[Whydah]]'' from [[Laurens Prins]] and uncovered its prized treasure, the [[Fragment of Eden]], [[Samuel Bellamy]] entrusted the artifact to Alonzo and [[Olivier Levasseur|La Buse]] for protection while he led the [[Templars|Templar Order]] on a drawn out chase with his newly commandeered vessel.
After [[Samuel Bellamy]] entrusted Alonzo with the [[Fragment of Eden]], [[Olivier Levasseur|La Buse]] cryptically promised to help him hide the [[Piece of Eden|artifact]] in the unlikeliest place where no one would expect to find it.
Following this, La Buse aimed to share a cunning plan to hide the Fragment with Alonzo, but cryptically left its concept from the latter's understanding. Thus, the pair traveled to [[Nassau]] to be among the company of fellow [[Piracy|pirates]].

==Outcome==
==Outcome==
Having arrived in Nassau and meeting with Christoper Condent, the island's temporary leader in Benjamin Hornigold and Edward Thatch's absense, La Buse remained behind while Alonzo secured food and rum for Nassau's inhabitants, as well as saving Charles Vane from his reckless attacks on far superior ships.
Alzono and La Buse arrived in Nassau and met Christoper Condent, the island's interim leader. While La Buse stayed to safeguard the Fragment of Eden, Alonzo recovered supplies at Condent's request and rescued Vane from an outmatched fight. Returning, he learned La Buse had quietly vanished and left behind an encoded map to his location.
However, upon his final return, Alonzo discovered that La Buse has taken the Fragment of Eden and scarpered, leaving behind only a map. Using the map to find a hidden code, Aaminah determined La Buse's next step, an island referred to as "the devil's mouth".

This article is about Alonzo Batilla's genetic memory. You may be looking for the attempted republic itself.
After Samuel Bellamy entrusted Alonzo with the Fragment of Eden, La Buse cryptically promised to help him hide the artifact in the unlikeliest place where no one would expect to find it.
Condent:Hello, friends! Welcome to our striving republic!
Alonzo:The right place to settle among brothers... far from the righteous and the corrupt?
Condent:Aye!... But you won't find these islands in a much better state than the ones you left... We are free of rulers... but also of any serious supervision! People lack water and proper food!
Condent:A convoy is on its way to the British colonies... a convoy full of the supplies we need...
La Buse:A convoy, you say?... I guess we are just the ones to intercept it!
Condent left, and Alonzo and La Buse discussed the Fragment of Eden.
La Buse:I cannot go with you, Alonzo... I should remain in Nassau to protect our prize.
Alonzo:You're right friend... I'll catch this convoy on my own!
La Buse:Good luck! You'll find me here when you return!
Alonzo chased down and engaged the merchant convoy, managing to destroy its escorts. Jumao tallied their catch and reported back to Alonzo.
Jumao:We have enough supplies, captain! Time to return to Nassau!
Alonzo brought the supplies to Nassau.
Alonzo returning the supplies to Nassau
Alonzo:Here are your supplies, Condent!... There's enough to feed your republic for months!
Condent:But hardly enough to quench its thirst!... Without a proper supply of rum, pirates will turn rabid!
Alonzo:Where can I find enough rum to keep them quiet?
Condent:I have heard rumors that a ship was wrecked south of here... but the Royal Navy is protecting the area.
Alonzo:The Navy could not protect their own king from a thirsty pirate! Trust me... I'll get your rum!
Alonzo sailed to the wreck site and collected fifteen crates of rum.
Jumao:Time to return to Nassau, captain!... We have enough to keep them drunk for years!
Alonzo made his way back to Nassau, but came upon some trouble.
Alonzo:The Royal Navy must really be after those crates of rum!
Jumao:Let's not stir up any trouble... Our cargo will be useless if damaged!
Alonzo carefully avoided the Royal Navy ships, returning to Nassau by nightfall.
Alonzo:Your rum is here, Condent!... Come share a bottle!
Condent:There's no time! Vane has sobered up and gone crazy! He left on the Ranger! You have to stop him!
Alonzo:Why would I want to stop a mad pirate from getting drunk?
Condent:He'll wreak so much havoc he'll doom our republic!
Alonzo:I'll catch Vane... but you'll owe me a drink, Condent!
Condent:Consider it a promise! Set a course north and explore the region! You are bound to find him!
Alonzo left to locate Vane, finding him in battle with two Royal Navy frigates.
Alonzo finding Vane in trouble
Jumao:There's the Ranger!
Alonzo:Vane is such a reckless fool! He'll never survive this assault!
Despite rescuing Vane, Alonzo received an earful of his wrath.
Vane:Why the hell did you stop me, you blowfish! Do you want your head chopped off?!
Alonzo:Shut your gob, Vane! You were in no shape to take those ships!
Vane:A pirate's always ready for plunder! I'll take the entire Armada if I fancy it!
Alonzo:...Even if you're sure to die?!
Vane:Would that be so bad, boy?!
Alonzo:This man is no fool... he's simply mad!
Both Alonzo and Vane returned to Nassau.
Alonzo:I took care of Vane!... Will you finally let me rest?
Condent:Rest all you want, brother... but I'm afraid I have bad news. Your friend, La Buse... he's gone!
Alonzo:Gone?... What happened?
Condent:He vanished without a word... He just left this map for you... I am sorry, Alonzo. I cannot help you... I have to run this republic until Hornigold returns.
Alonzo:...What the hell happened here?
Aaminah:This map must be a clue as to his current location!
Alonzo:He'd better be there... he has my treasure!
Alonzo set sail for the treasure zone.
Alonzo:He's not here!... He took my treasure and played me for a fool!
Jumao:Maybe he's still around!... Use your spyglass, Alonzo!
Alzono and La Buse arrived in Nassau and met Christoper Condent, the island's interim leader. While La Buse stayed to safeguard the Fragment of Eden, Alonzo recovered supplies at Condent's request and rescued Vane from an outmatched fight.
