Plot summary[edit | edit source]
While John Young follows Captain Rupiya's directions to find his crew's hideout, the Dutch East India Company has no choice but to detain the Far East Company's ship caught smuggling opium following the spectacle that occurred at the docks. A furious Alan Jacob meets with Jan van Aert and Sun and accuses the former of scheming against him, but Sun breaks up their argument and points out that fighting amongst themselves will only benefit their enemy. He then offers to help Alan recover his confiscated product and reminds him and Jan that their alliance must not break apart until they have dealt with Madam Lee.
In the present, as Noa Kim finishes this sequence of Edward Kenway's memories, he forgets what he has to do in order to progress to the next sequence and asks for Shimazu Sei's assistance. After teasing Noa for asking for help despite his insistence on being given complete freedom, Sei brings up the journal of a ceramic merchant from Macau who once encountered Edward. Using the information from the journal, Noa is able to synchronize with Edward's memories, and the Animus loads up the next memory sequence.
Edward decides to investigate Sun and heads to a tavern to question some sailors. He offers to buy them a drink in exchange for information, but is interrupted by another group of sailors who recognized him from a wanted poster. After a quick brawl, Edward leaves the tavern and runs into Zhang, who is on his way to the market. Edward asks Zhang to take him to Sun's ceramic shop, where he attempts to set up a meeting with Sun under the pretense of talking business. However, the merchant running the shop turns him down, explaining he cannot introduce a complete stranger to Sun.
After leaving the shop, Edward spots a trio of disguised ninja walking among the crowd and decides to tail them, telling Zhang to head back. Meanwhile, John and Rupiya arrive at the hideout, where the latter shoots one of his men in the shoulder as retribution for the crew's earlier mutiny. He then threatens the crew to return to work for him, or else they will face the wrath of Edward, the "Nightmare of the Caribbean."
